• 2:04
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh we want to keep everybody as safe and secure as can be.
• 2:10
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And sometimes that means we have to talk about some uh some hard topics.
• 2:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um, but we we do that.
• 2:19
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: This show is uh going to be about say give and take.
• 2:28
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So give and take, we'll we'll go with that for a a title.
• 2:33
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So think back to uh well, depends, I guess, on on your age.
• 2:42
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So I'm gonna think back to a time when I was in grade school, middle school, and uh you know, we had lockers, and I can't remember if if we I'm pretty sure we had locks on them.
• 3:01
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um I'm not a hundred percent sure uh if we did uh any any of that.
• 3:10
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So we all had lockers, my locker, and it's it's incredible that I even remember this.
• 3:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh so my locker was like at the end of a section, meaning there might have been like maybe 15 lockers in a row, and then there was kind of uh the support system that helps hold up the lockers, and then next to that would be the uh a door to one of one of the teachers' classrooms, and so my locker was at the end next to the kind of the support structure of all the lockers, and so you know, we put books in there.
• 3:57
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If we had a lunch, uh if we played a sport or any after school activity, you know, we we might have uh another bag, like a duffel bag with shorts, a t-shirt.
• 4:14
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh if it's uh a sport, maybe we have jerseys for the games, maybe we have practice jerseys, you know, depending on the sport, um shoes.
• 4:27
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So depending on a sport, you know, if it's uh a sport where you need cleats, you have shoes with cleats.
• 4:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh, if it's a sport like basketball, you know, they'd be like athletic shoes, high tops, usually.
• 4:44
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so I remember this crystal clear, just like it happened yesterday.
• 4:53
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I don't remember what point in the day it was.
• 4:58
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I just remember coming back to my locker, opening up the locker, and I had I had an extra pair of shoes that was on there's like a top shelf, you know, where we put like lunch and shoes, if they were separate from like a another bag, and then we would put like our books in our jackets and and that and and kind of that bottom section.
• 5:30
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so I I remember Plains Day opening up that locker, looking at that top section, and my shoes were gone, they weren't there, and so you know, I'm looking around, like maybe they fell out when I opened the locker, uh, and and so the day the day went on, and I I don't remember who if it was the principal, the vice principal, I'm not sure who exactly might have been a teacher.
• 6:08
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I don't know who exactly I told said I had this pair of shoes, and I described them.
• 6:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I can't describe them now because I don't remember exactly what kind they were.
• 6:20
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um, but they were athletic, I knew they were athletic shoes, so they uh I know that part.
• 6:26
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I just don't know what brand and and all that.
• 6:30
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh, but either through a teacher, through a principal, a counselor, I I brought that up and it said, look, I came back from class and open up my locker and my shoes are gone.
• 6:48
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And the section that that support structure section, it was pushed in a little bit, and I really didn't notice it, I guess, all the way, but uh anyway, so some type of investigation was going on of you know, where's my shoes?
• 7:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I I have my shoes right here.
• 7:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: My mom worked at the school, and so my mom could vouch that I had them, I brought them to school, etc.
• 7:28
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so they were gone.
• 7:31
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I was like, well, I'm never gonna get these shoes back because they're not here.
• 7:45
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh luckily there was one student that was aware of the plot of stealing my shoes, which is you know, somebody to steal something, take something of somebody else's without their permission.
• 8:08
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So that's just kind of like a cut and dry definition.
• 8:13
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So taking something or some things, it could be physical, right?
• 8:20
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So it could be shoes.
• 8:22
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We talk about phones and and and uh and uh uh netbooks and and iPads and all the uh the different software and the apps and all that.
• 8:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh we talk about our social media profiles.
• 8:42
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh, we talk about maybe a photo or uh an episode of our show and it just disappears and it's gone.
• 8:54
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That would be somebody's stealing because we didn't and wouldn't give authority to somebody else because it's our shows.
• 9:12
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It follows the first amendment.
• 9:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We talk about the uh you know, we talk about the first amendment, but then we also talk about the public safety service announcement, right?
• 9:29
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um and we don't talk about harming the other people, we don't talk about physical harm or any of that.
• 9:37
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh and so again, back, you know, so the shoes and and so the day goes on.
• 9:44
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Another student knew of the plot, knew who did it, and luckily they reported it, and I got my shoes back.
• 9:54
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But for a period of time throughout that day, my shoes were gone.
• 10:00
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I was stealing because I gave I didn't give any permission to anybody to take them, to try them out, to see if they liked like I did I didn't do that.
• 10:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um and so at a very early age, right?
• 10:23
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're like learning these things about you know, it's a it's one thing, you know, to borrow, to lend, but that was stealing.
• 10:34
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Somebody stole shoes.
• 10:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If they wouldn't have got caught, they would have sold them, they would have worn.
• 10:40
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I don't know what they would have done, but they weren't the people's shoes who did.
• 10:47
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So what ended up happening is they, the individuals, the students, my classmates, a couple of them, they basically went in that support structure and they like jammed, I don't know if it's a pencil, a pen, something in that section.
• 11:07
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And then again, you could if you you got that open, it wasn't a door, it was just kind of like you got to like jimmy your hand or your pen or pencil in to create the space, and and so what they did was they created enough space to reach up, grab the shoes and out.
• 11:26
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So it didn't look like anybody had opened my locker because they didn't open the locker, they went that side.
• 11:38
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um and that's how they that's how they did it.
• 11:41
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So that's considered stealing, right?
• 11:45
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Take you know taking somebody's property, again, whether it's something physically touched like a t-shirt, uh a car, uh, a piano, a guitar, uh a couch, a chair, a phone, you know, you name it.
• 12:08
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh when somebody takes something that's not theirs without express written consent, permission, then that's called stealing.
• 12:23
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so the other people or whoever's involved, they don't they don't automatically get to say, I want this, and I'm just gonna take it.
• 12:40
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Okay.
• 12:42
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So like those students, they didn't it wasn't up to them whether they got to say, well, I know he has a pair of shoes, we can sell him, we can whatever.
• 12:55
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They took him.
• 12:57
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I didn't say yes, they never asked me, never came to me, nothing like that.
• 13:02
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so that's like as a student, you know, growing up.
• 13:10
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, things like that happen as adults too.
• 13:16
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So it's not just you know, kids, and you know, it's one thing like kids being kids, but what you know, when somebody has to like jimmy in, you know, create space, the pull the shoes at like that's not kids being kids, that that's not uh me saying it's okay to take them for take my shoes for the day or the week or what have you.
• 13:44
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh then so the same goes for adults.
• 13:48
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Could they could have we could have lockers at our place of work.
• 13:53
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um we go to the gym and somebody walks out with a piece of equipment, or they have a dolly and they load up a piece of equipment, they take it out to their vehicle, vehicles, they load the you know, the the ab machine, they load that in in their vehicle and then they leave.
• 14:19
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, that's called stealing.
• 14:25
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If they weren't given permission, it's called stealing.
• 14:30
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It's not called anything else, it's not calling, well, that person deserves that piece of equipment.
• 14:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Like that's just not what what it is and so I bring this up because as time goes on individuals still do the same thing.
• 15:04
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: There's unfortunately crime.
• 15:09
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Crime doesn't really know any specific demographic.
• 15:14
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so people still steal things, whether it's to sell, so they can buy drugs or buy alcohol or I don't know, buy a pillow or to buy a bed, or I don't know.
• 15:34
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I'm just giving examples here.
• 15:37
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: People look and sometimes people get jealous.
• 15:42
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They get jealous of somebody who's doing something that they wish they were doing, and so sometimes people go, Well, that's mine.
• 15:56
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I'm gonna take that that that's mine, even though the thing, whether it's a you know, the software, a platform on a social media platform, um, again, or something, you know, maybe it's a high-powered sweeper, I don't know.
• 16:20
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It can be anything.
• 16:22
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh and when there's no consent, when there's no permission given, and somebody takes those things, a thing, a service, a piece of software that somebody created, and somebody else goes, I want that, that's mine.
• 16:49
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It doesn't mean that the person says, Well, I want that, that's mine.
• 16:53
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Doesn't mean they they're entitled to it.
• 16:57
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If they have they had nothing to do with it, they didn't invent it, they didn't, they were just not part of the process, and most importantly, they didn't ask the person or persons who own whatever the thing or things are, whether you can touch them or whether it's again, I mean social media pro profile, they're like, that's mine, so I'm just gonna take it.
• 17:29
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, that's the same thing as that story I said when I was growing up, when when those students stole my shoes for that period of time, and if somebody didn't know and didn't report it, I would never have got those shoes back.
• 17:50
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so as an adult, same thing.
• 17:56
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Don't want to tell anybody, or they make it public and say, Well, this is mine, this isn't theirs, you know, using hypotheticals, like the hypothetical person that has something that is of value, who started it, it's run in the family, and it's been passed down through the family, somebody else can't just come and take it and say, no, no, no, that's mine.
• 18:35
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And by the end of the year, you know, we're gonna have this.
• 18:40
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That's also called stealing.
• 18:44
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So whether I'm 13, 12, whatever age I was, or whether I'm 44, 54, 94, 64, whatever, if I don't consent, and somebody or somebody's steal something, they take something that I don't consent to, I say, like they don't even ask, they just take it.
• 19:17
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They're like, yeah, that's my car.
• 19:19
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Like, well, no, it's not.
• 19:22
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Oh, that that's my um that's my Instagram.
• 19:27
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: No, uh, no, it's not.
• 19:29
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: You have your own Instagram or whatever the social media platform is, and so it's a public safety and public service announcement because I don't know anybody in the public or private that would be okay with somebody just coming randomly and taking something of theirs that was of value to that person.
• 20:05
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so the public needs to know that we like to think we look at the the good in people.
• 20:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We like to look at the good in people for sure.
• 20:22
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Unfortunately, there's some in this hypothetical hypothetical example and in real life that think that they're entitled to said thing.
• 20:43
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Like, oh, well, I don't have that, but this person does.
• 20:50
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I'd love to have that.
• 20:51
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So we're gonna take it, we're gonna get it.
• 20:54
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We're we're gonna have this by the end of the year, or by the end of the day, by the end of the week, by the end of the month, by the end of the decade.
• 21:04
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: You know, you just put fill in the blank with the timing of it.
• 21:10
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so we thought it was just important to share this on the show.
• 21:15
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It's a public service, public safety announcement.
• 21:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And you might be wondering, like, how's that have anything to do with mental health?
• 21:23
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, if you lost something, if you feel like you lost something and find out it was actually stolen, then I could see myself, you know, blaming myself, like Justin, like what did you do?
• 21:42
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Why did, you know, why did the circumstances uh present themselves to make this a possibility?
• 21:55
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And and then that's where we can, you know, just beat ourselves.
• 22:00
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Up in our mind and say, you know, darn it, Justin, darn it, Justin.
• 22:06
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh and so that couldn't create stress and anxiety.
• 22:13
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: You know, with especially if there's like a next time, like in the case of like shoes, like the next time I bought a pair of shoes, I was a lot more careful.
• 22:27
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I mean, and right, you're getting given a locker as a student, and you do think things are just safe.
• 22:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Like, like I'm not gonna go into somebody else's locker, like it's it's not mine.
• 22:41
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So why would I go into somebody else's locker and take something that's not mine?
• 22:48
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It for me, it doesn't cross my mind.
• 22:52
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: For some people, it does, and it did back in the day when my shoes went missing for most of that day.
• 23:02
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh sometimes, a lot of times, people don't get their things back, and so especially if people are using force and they want to hurt somebody, I mean, then it make makes us could make us extra more stressed and like, oh my gosh, I can't say anything.
• 23:34
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I know who did it.
• 23:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They told me if I say anything, that you know, they'll whatever, they'll do something negative, bad, bad to me.
• 23:46
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So I can't say anything, I can't, you know, report on.
• 23:53
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so we want to be a light for people who are have found themselves victim, not because they deserve being a victim, not at all, but because there's so many people that bad things have happened to, and bad people who have come along, and basically, if somebody takes something, they're basically saying, This is mine.
• 24:23
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I deserve this.
• 24:24
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: This is this is mine, not yours, even though it was in your family for you know how many years, it's not yours, it's mine.
• 24:37
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so we have to uh we have to just it's hard to do.
• 24:44
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We gotta be we gotta be strong, we gotta band together as a human race.
• 24:49
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We gotta band together for the positive, for the what could be, not the what got taken from me, or what could be in the plans that somebody can be trying at some point in the future to take from me.
• 25:10
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so we keep this really simple.
• 25:15
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Somebody takes something, or again, software you can't really touch and feel it, it uh could be a again, a uh could be a social media platform with a lot of followers.
• 25:36
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um and and so when people if people would say, well, that's mine, it's not yours, it's like well, you're you know, we're not related, so no, it's not yours, you're not entitled to it.
• 25:53
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Um, we just have to be strong, we have to have faith.
• 26:00
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Uh for me, for you know, faith in God that it's his plan, not mine.
• 26:06
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: He's the judge, not me.
• 26:11
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so when we say if we see or hear something, we say something, squeaky wheel gets degrees.
• 26:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Close mouth, close mouths, don't get fed.
• 26:26
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That's that's just the way it is.
• 26:29
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So if we're gonna sit on the sidelines and just let things happen, we have to basically concede that potentially something bad could happen.
• 26:46
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I know a lot of people are out there, this is directed as a public surf, public service, public safety announcement.
• 26:55
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: People feel like they're being spoken about in this show.
• 27:01
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That's not the intention.
• 27:03
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: The intention is a public safety announcement, and if somebody feels that that describes something that they're trying to do, or they have plans to do, then I urge you, please don't do it.
• 27:24
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: You know what's right, you know what's wrong, whatever that may be, whatever it may be, whatever the thing, whatever the software, whatever the profile, whatever the social media platform profile, uh just don't do that, like because the thing is not yours.
• 27:55
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Okay?
• 27:56
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And I know you know that I know there's very smart people, so I I know I know the difference between right and wrong, and I understand that there's been no permission granted at this point in time, nor do I see that happening.
• 28:27
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: But again, I'm not God.
• 28:29
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I'm just saying if somebody feels like it's them, then maybe they just need to rethink you know what they do.
• 28:40
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: You can't you can't go around just taking things.
• 28:43
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If it's not yours, it's not yours.
• 28:46
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Anything other than that, it's stealing.
• 28:49
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It's not borrowing, like you're not gonna like borrow somebody's social media profile and because they have so many followers, or there's some kind of content that is uh that aligns with the work that you do.
• 29:07
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: No.
• 29:11
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: If you're not given consent, you're not given permission that isn't under duress.
• 29:19
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So if somebody's under duress and they sign something, that's that's still stealing.
• 29:30
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It could be called coercion.
• 29:34
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: That's what it could be.
• 29:37
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It happens sometimes.
• 29:43
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so we're here for we're here for everybody, but especially the people without a voice, the people that feel like nobody's listening, feels like everything's just going wrong.
• 30:03
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: They can't catch a break.
• 30:06
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Well, voices for voices, we're here for you.
• 30:12
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Not just me, not just the guests we have on.
• 30:18
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: There's potential guests, there's people that are no longer living, they still have a voice.
• 30:26
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: So if you're a family member, and there's somebody that meant a lot, it means a lot, and they're in heaven right now.
• 30:41
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We want to tell your story.
• 30:43
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: We want you to tell your story, not me.
• 30:46
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: I want I want to just pass the mic over to you, get the start, get the get the show started, and and that's what that's what we're here for.
• 30:59
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: And so stealing is wrong.
• 31:01
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: Stealing is not right.
• 31:03
  Voices for Voices, Justin Alan Hayes: It doesn't take high-IQ individual to to know right from wrong.
• 31:17
