[Music] hey everybody come on come on in it's time it's time for coffee with scott adams good to see you omar good to see the rest of you well what a night what a night you know you think the news will slow down but the news just keeps on coming june is always such a crazy month because everybody's schedule changes and the weather changes and suddenly stresses through the roof and why aren't those kids in school so i'm gonna guess that for many of you your stress levels a little bit higher anybody anybody a little bit of stress well i'm here to bring it down let's bring it down let's bring down that stress because we will get through this we get through everything but you know what really helps you know what really really helps is the simultaneous zip and all you need

[1:13]

simultaneous zip and all you need is a copper mugger glass a tanker chalice or stein a canteen jugger flask a vessel of any kind
fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join me now for the dopamine head of the day the thing that makes everything better it practically cured the pandemic already don't hear much about it and now the simultaneous hip is going to take on the protests and the riots and the looting yeah watch them go down go
i don't want to get all scientific but i'm willing to guarantee that in one year thanks to that sip there will be less rioting that's right you can check it check it a year for now see if i'm not right a year from now on this date there will be fewer riots because of the simultaneous sip if you don't know how cause and effect works

[2:13]

how cause and effect works and you think it's just a correlation well you've got a lot of scientific learning that you need to do well yes a chalice that's right i said jealous didn't i let's talk about all the news the top story i think is that the oakland zoo had a report that their tigers got out
so that actually happened in my neighborhood so how would you like to live in the neighborhood where uh don't go outside because you know the climate change might kill you and the riots might kill you and one more thing there's a tiger loose in your neighborhood that's all we're saying just stay safe just watch out for antifa if anybody throws a brick make sure you duck and watch your back there might be a tiger

[3:16]

watch your back there might be a tiger turns out that was a fake report and i give a great respect to whoever the prankster was who started the rumor that the animals got out of the oakland zoo because that's what happened it was just a rumor there were no animals that got away from the oakland zoo but for a while for a while that was a local story
and i don't know what's wrong with me that you know the world can literally be burning but when somebody plays a prank like the tiger got out of the zoo i don't know if you can't laugh at that we've already lost civilization all right here's a little update and do you remember that that paper that was published that showed that masks don't work because if you cough through the mask it doesn't stop the virus do you remember that paper well it turns out that that paper that caused a lot of the experts to say that masto work

[4:17]

masto work has been uh retracted because it turns out it was all it was just all it wasn't even close to science it was all so it's been retracted so how do you feel about your experts how do you feel about those experts now and you know i'm gonna say again i think i was the first public person to call on mass not working now if anybody said it before i did i haven't seen it yet because i think it was kind of risky when all the experts all the experts literally all the experts were saying that maths don't work and they had science look at our science and and by the way i just hope you can appreciate my complete lack of embarrassment that i would say publicly and loudly and often that every expert in the world and all their science were wrong

[5:18]

all their science were wrong and of course i was right i was right it was obvious i was right i didn't have to do any science it was kind of obvious but i would just like to claim that for the rest of my life as a thing that in some ways i'm most proud of now i'm not most proud of it because i realized it because i think there must have been billions of people who said the same thing there had to be there had to be a hundred million people who said some version of um if the virus is in the droplets and the mask stops droplets well explain to me how they don't work how do they not work because you touch your face more because when i put my mask on i touch my face less i touch it through the mask but i touch my face last so anyway the part i'm proud of is that i had worked on my my ego to the point this is an important

[6:18]

my ego to the point this is an important lesson actually i'll i'll embed this little important lesson in my otherwise fun presentation the important lesson is that i was able to publicly say something that i think anybody else in the world would have been embarrassed to say in public because it's pretty embarrassing to say every scientist and expert in the world is wrong because hey i'm a cartoonist so trust me and that's what i did that's exactly what i did loudly went my way this time might not always go my way but the point is that the the key uh talent in my talent stack was the working on my ego in other words being able to embarrass myself at an extreme level i mean that would be extremely embarrassing if it had gone the other way if it turned out the mass were killing people and there was you know it turned out there was lots of confirming science to that or that it didn't work at all pretty

[7:19]

or that it didn't work at all pretty embarrassing for me wasn't an obstacle all right some more stuff i think the country needs a common enemy because sometimes that's the only thing that stops you from fighting with each other i have a theory that humans need a certain amount of conflict in other words we're just we're just genetically and all the way to our base code of our dna
dna we need conflict we're sort of a conflict species if we don't have a war we'll start one at home if we don't have that one at home we'll start one somewhere else we kind of need to fight we're just fighting people and you can either try to deny your nature or you can try to engineer something productive to work with you know using your nature in a positive way the reason capitalism works is that it understands people are uh selfish and greedy

[8:19]

selfish and greedy right capitalism works because it understands people are horrible we're selfish and greedy but it's a system that harnesses selfishness and greed and turns it into gold best system you could ever have how about democracy people are stupid fearful tribal and don't care about their neighbors but democracy lets everybody have their little selfish vote and because we accept the credibility of the system it turns all this ignorance and bad intention into gold you get the united states you get the constitution so a good system can turn horrible things into something good and we do it all the time right you know fertilizer is used to grow you know literally poop that comes out of cows is used to grow new food so you can turn

[9:20]

is used to grow new food so you can turn bad things into good things it's very common and right now we have all this angry energy lots of angry energy in the country and right now it's just sort of directed in every every direction like everybody's angry at just sort of a variety of things what we need is one good common enemy i recommend antifa is the common enemy of black people it's a common enemy of anybody who likes civilization because they are anti-civilization they're they're literally trying to devolve civilization uh to the point of starvation no they don't say it in those words but basically that's it they don't have an end game they just want less of everything and what you get when you destroy things is
is you know that outcome so i would say that all the people who want

[10:20]

that all the people who want economic prosperity who want a fair world who want jobs are on the same side so if you are black and you want jobs and a good society and all those things that say martin luther king would have wanted if you want any of that stuff antifa is your mortal enemy and uh it's certainly the mortal enemy of the right the political right i would say it should be the the mortal enemy of the the the liberal um let's say the moderate liberals right so i would say antifa should be our common enemy
if you take them out of the mix everything looks different
here's a question for you i have not seen any reporting yet on which red states or actually red i guess red cities are riding does anybody have any

[11:22]

are riding does anybody have any statistics on republican controlled cities are there any i don't know is there even a republican-controlled city anywhere is that even a thing are there any republican-controlled cities that are having problems why is there no reporting on that that feels like the most obvious thing you would see reporting on i don't i don't think i've seen any somebody says what about white supremacy as a common enemy white supremacy would be a great common enemy if you could find any right if you could find any uh white supremacy let me know i'll i'll be your common enemy i don't like white supremacy but if you find any find a person or anything like that but there's not enough of them you need you need a common enemy where you can actually find one good luck finding a white supremacist except in your imagination and under your bed i'm sure there are three or four in the country somewhere but otherwise it's mostly imaginary

[12:24]

but otherwise it's mostly imaginary there's lots of racism it's just the supremacy part is the part that went away um and by the way the reason why supremacy doesn't exist again this is the cartoonist who has no ego
ego and i will shame myself in public by saying you think they're white supremacists i don't think you've ever talked to one because if you talk to anybody who is just a plain racist they will tell you that white people are not supreme in fact that's a big part of the racism is that they're worried they'll lose ground to groups that they think will just do better than them so regular racism is the opposite of supremacy regular racism the way at least the way it's expressed by most white americans who are racist is a sense of inferiority if you don't understand that that it comes from a sense of you know sort of inferiority don't think you can compete

[13:25]

you can compete then you don't really understand the situation it's in many cases yeah everybody's different of course but in many cases it's more like the opposite of white supremacy it's more like the it's more like white insecurity white inferiority or at least feelings of inferiority that are driving a lot of it
it all right that's just my opinion all right does it seem to you like the news is not showing you the news i mean more than usual yeah i was making this observation that the best of video footage we have of the riots and looting are coming from individuals with phones and all of the footage that's just sort of generic and it's behind the lines and it's too far away or it's or a shot from a helicopter like all
all all of the generic stuff is coming from the news networks partly because i don't think they can get too close to the action you know the police keep the the professional news crews away so as a result i'm left with this question

[14:29]

as a result i'm left with this question do you think that the media has made a collective decision maybe they've even communicated maybe the government's communicated with them it's possible do you think that the media has made a decision to show less of the violence what do you think because it looks like a decision it looks like there's a decision to just not showcase as much of the violence as they possibly could because it would be really easy for
for any of the news networks to just run a montage like andy now you know ngo no if you're following him you'll see video after video of pretty shocking things coming out of the out of the riots so it would be easy to find them i mean any of the networks could easily find all of these videos but they don't run them you know they they do some but it feels like there's some kind of conscious decision and i don't know where it comes from maybe they independently just figure it's good

[15:30]

figure it's good good citizenship to you know tamp down the number of visuals that they're doing but um i don't know if they are intentionally suppressing the news to manage the situation do you feel like that's what's happening um oh somebody says that tucker aired some of the footage last night yeah but of course tucker is an opinion program but an opinion show and he can do whatever he wants so um yeah but i i think that fox news as a general statement is also not showing the the full degree of it that you can see on twitter quite easily so i ask you this question does the news business have a responsibility to show you what's happening even if it's awful and even if it would cause you to act in a certain way or does the news business have a responsibility like a government in which they're trying to manage how you act by managing what they show you

[16:30]

you act by managing what they show you because it looks like they're trying to manage how we act by managing what they show us you know lowering the amount of graphic images i don't know if that's a bad thing do you i mean what's your opinion is that a bad thing because if it's well-meaning and there's no good that could come from it you could argue that that's just being good citizens you know there's no reason to unnecessarily show you images that will get you worked up and nothing good can come from it i just have an open question whether it's a conscious decision by the networks all right
there was a story that i saw yesterday that now i'm wondering if it's true can somebody do me a fact check on this and i would be surprised that somebody hadn't gotten to me directly yesterday i saw a report which today i'm wondering if it was fake news so i'm hoping somebody could confirm or deny this i i thought i saw that the autopsy showed fentanyl in and also meth in the uh in the body

[17:33]

in and also meth in the uh in the body of
of george floyd is that true because that would be like a gigantic story that didn't seem to be in the news today i saw it on twitter but not in the news let's see while you're trying to come up with that fentanyl george floyd because i'd hate to be i'd hate to be spreading that rumor if that was fake news
so the headlines say interesting asphyxiation but let's see if they also say can you tell me uh look it takes a little while for the they do this all the time and just to see if there's fentanyl in this story uh family finding neck compression god i wonder if that was fake news

[18:36]

or if they're if they're uh intentionally not reporting it all right i'm looking at your comments to see do you guys know
what happened to this news so i'm seeing a bunch of yeses and truths but it doesn't seem to be showing up in the news i'm looking at a long article about it
i wonder how far down i have to get before i would mention it being that it's the most important thing in the news huh well i guess i'll have to look that up i'm not going to say any more about it
it until i confirm it's true so so somebody says uh newsweek is reporting it nbc and wall street journal okay so it's not it's not headline news is it uh are you seeing anybody reporting as a headline or is everybody reporting it as a somewhere down in a long story it's just a a word all right there are two autopsies

[19:38]

all right there are two autopsies uh oh tmz reported it then it's probably true you know what's weird is that uh follow use the standard and be surprised how often is true if i say i saw some news on tmz what's your first reaction oh it's probably like the national enquirer right and you're thinking well it could be something that's true but it could be something they just totally made up that might be your first impression because it's a you know tmz is sort of in that entertainment gossipy realm but it's the opposite i've told you this story before there was once some fake news about me and it was big headlines for a while i won't go into it but it was just fake news and tmz is the only outlet that called me a home to ask me if it was true nobody else asked they're the only ones who asked me if it was true and then i told them the story and then they said oh okay wasn't true and then they didn't run the story on it

[20:40]

and then they didn't run the story on it so
so watch how often tmz is the most accurate news source because they actually don't have apparently they don't have any motive to make up news because their news is already interesting right so tmz doesn't have to make up news because the only news that they cover is stuff that's interesting no matter what it is so uh they end up just by an accident of what their business model is by accident they end up being the most reliable source of news because they're the only ones who don't have any reason to make up news because it's already interesting or else it wouldn't be in tmc all right um
so i s enough of you are confirming the fentanyl story so i said this yesterday in a special video but some of you only watched the morning ones so i'll repeat it the everything you know about the george floyd story you have to reassess

[21:40]

george floyd story you have to reassess and here's why on day one you said to yourself this is obviously murder i watched it with my own eyes on video and i watched as this white cop
that chocolate on my arm what a mess i am uh i watched as this white cop put his knee on a black man who was clearly already subdued and kept it there until that man died we all watched that now you say to yourself what are the odds that george floyd coincidentally died just by coincidence at exactly the same time he was being strangled by a cop and so your common sense says well let me do the odds the odds of somebody dying by coincidence exactly at the same time they're being strangled is about zero so therefore it was the strangulation the knee that killed him common sense logic smart people follow the odds

[22:41]

the odds then we find out he had fentanyl in his system now not all of you are fentanyl experts i unfortunately know a lot about fentanyl because my stepson died with it in his system one of the things i know is that fentanyl makes it difficult to breathe as
as does meth i believe and i'm not sure about the math but fentanyl does so fentanyl will make you have have difficulty breathing now if you have difficulty breathing and i i heard this from some experts if you're a fentanyl user let's say you're a junkie an addict you have learned that if you were to fall asleep on fentanyl and your head goes down you might constrict your own breathing and not wake up in other words you'll just asphyxiate yourself by just falling asleep because your neck's in the wrong position now if you were simply drunk and you fell asleep with your neck in the wrong position you would do something like this and you

[23:41]

you would do something like this and you would just wake up so the difference between being on fentanyl and being just inebriated with some other drug is that if you're inebriated with another drug and your breathing gets cut off it kind of wakes you up so it doesn't kill you on fentanyl you don't wake up you just don't breathe you just don't breathe and then you die because you're not breathing so uh the the responsibility of the police is to be smarter than us scott is an idiot we'll get rid of you um the responsibility of the police of course is to be smarter than the public and the public would not know that if somebody had maybe fentanyl in them and remember the police would assume that a great many people that they stop who have you know symptoms of being under the influence the police would know that maybe half of

[24:43]

the police would know that maybe half of them have fentanyl the the percentage of people who look like they're in that condition who have fentanyl in them is very high i i think maybe half at this point so if you're a police officer you knew there was maybe a 50 chance he had some fentanyl in him even if he had other stuff too you knew the fentanyl was a breathing issue you would be concerned about how what position you put the perpetrator in because it might exacerbate the breathing issue and you certainly wouldn't want to put your a knee on a neck for somebody who had a breathing issue right and you wouldn't want to be on their back etc but it turns out that we learned today according to the reporting of cnn that the police officers were having a conversation about and if you haven't heard this it's the biggest news of the day the police officers it was reported i think by witnesses that they had a conversation

[25:43]

conversation while they had him down about how to keep him alive and specifically mentioned the risk of sudden death from being in the wrong physical position and being in a certain drug state did you hear that the police who had george floyd down and were on top of him the three of them had a conversation which was witnessed in which they talked about making sure he didn't die accidentally by being in the wrong position and being in a drug state and there's actually a name for it which they used so in other words the police were medically aware that the f that the perpetrator's position and his drug state was a risk for sudden death and they talked about how to prevent it and the and the one who's been charged said he's the one who who won the conversation and he said that's why he's on his

[26:43]

and he said that's why he's on his stomach in other words he was on his stomach specifically to prevent and they said it out loud specifically to prevent accidental sudden death now i see you screaming in the comments nine minutes but he kept his leg up there nine minutes now i'm with you what i watched look like a crime what you and i watched look like a crime and until there's a trial i'm going to assume that there there was a crime but if you think that the guys on the back could tell what was going on
you know if let me put it this way if the
the intentions of the police officers are part of the charge in other words you have to intentionally kill somebody to get murder one i think the that is disproved so the evidence

[27:44]

the that is disproved so the evidence disproves intention in fact the evidence proves that at least verbally they were negotiating on how best to keep him alive so if there's evidence that these three cops were talking about how best to keep him alive and to prevent the very thing that happened good luck with the conviction i think you might get a conviction with the one who had his knee on the neck because you could certainly make the case that no matter what that was the wrong thing to do now that what i've said is that even i as not an expert and not a cop even i knew that somebody who probably or at least had a high likelihood of having fentanyl in them even i knew there would be a breathing issue so even i would not have taken the risk that those cops took but would you have known that how many of you would have known what the cops knew that there was a risk of sudden death in that exact situation

[28:44]

that exact situation the cops said it out loud there was a risk of sudden death yeah i mean they use the the technical word but that's what it is
somebody says they should have called for paramedics i think there there's plenty uh let me be as clear as i can i would be amazed if the guy with his neck with his knee on the neck doesn't get charged with something that sticks it just feels like there's got to be something in the way he did his job that was criminal because it looked like it so i'm not trying to excuse him i'm predicting and i'm predicting that the three cops who were not charged even when ellison looked at it now ellison of course is the leftist of he's the leftiest left you know he's literally antifa friendly so uh ellison is the attorney general and apparently he even said even ellison said

[29:46]

he even said even ellison said the other three cops it's going to be a problem because he's seen the evidence and i think he knows that they're not going to get convicted the other three the one probably so like coronavirus the odds of this being a two-wave problem with a second wave of rioting and looting is really high probably in the ninety percent range because the other three cops almost have almost no chance of being convicted in my
my in my opinion or if they get convicted it'll be some minor thing and i don't think that that will satisfy the bloodlust because there is a blood lust here right and people want revenge they want they just want revenge now why is it that the black community wants revenge well obviously it's because they their lived experience backed up by lots of news reporting is that they're that they're targeted by the police

[30:46]

targeted by the police now the statistics as i understand them do not back that up does do the news networks report that it's simply not true that black people are killed at a higher rate than white people during during stops where let's say you both have weapons or you don't have weapons but you know apples to apples is cnn reporting that there actually is not not a real problem that the riots are riding over in other words it's an imaginary problem in the sense that if you looked at the statistics it would just it would disappear now because we have the video it's not that part's not imaginary that's the actual crime it looks like so you have to treat that one as a specific case but how is cnn handling this what are they doing to lower the temperature well here's this here's a sentence off of cnn's website now remember this is cnn trying to lower the

[31:47]

this is cnn trying to lower the temperature make sure make sure that the violence stays low and here's what they say police officers are rarely charged with crimes for violence against black men
and even in those rare cases juries have repeatedly shown an unwillingness to convict now is that a true statement i'm sure it is
is wouldn't you say this is a true statement i mean i haven't seen the statistics but i'm guessing it's true sounds true so
so let me read again from cnn police officers are rarely charged with crimes for violence against black men i'll bet that's true right what's what'd they leave out here's what i think they left out and and they could have at least mentioned it if they wanted to give us good context how often are the police successfully charged for violence against anyone anyone

[32:48]

for violence against anyone anyone is it is it true that when when police are charged with violence against black americans that the police are not charged or they they're not charged for that but they are charged when they have violence against white americans if the situations are somewhat is that what cnn is telling us because by leaving out it seems to me that they should have said just to complete the thought if they believed it was true they would have completed the thought and say police are rarely charged for hurting black citizens but they're often charged for hurting other citizens the reason they don't do the second part is because i don't think it's true i think just police generally don't get charged with hurting people and i'm not even sure that's a big problem because the opposite would be even worse if if police could not do their job because they're too worried about you know being charged with hurting

[33:49]

you know being charged with hurting people i don't know if you'd have an effective police force you'd probably get
get riots like you have today
um here's what the police chief aaron dondo i think it's the police chief who is responsible for the police officers who were charged and he told cnn that the silence of the four officers involved in floyd's death and their inaction made them quote complicit so complicit you know in quotes what does it mean to be complicit and is that a crime exactly and and if the crime is silence and inaction how do you square silence and inaction with the fact that it's reported that they were doing the opposite they were actively saying should we turn them on his side should we treat it differently how can we keep them alive that's the opposite of an action that's actually action

[34:50]

actually action in which they discussed the best option and in the end they did not find an option that worked now
now uh let me let me complete a thought i realized i didn't complete earlier fentanyl in the system creates the possibility that the fentanyl killed him just by itself there there is a non-zero chance that he may have taken some if he had any drugs left over that he didn't want to be busted for he may have put him in his mouth if he took the drugs he had with him so that he wouldn't be busted it would be a high likelihood if any of that was fentanyl it would be highly high likelihood that he would have an overdose at exactly that time in other words while in custody you know which didn't have to happen at that very moment but the odds of him dying while in custody were very high if and this is just speculation he took any drugs to avoid being caught with drugs now we don't know that that happened but because there was fentanyl in him

[35:51]

but because there was fentanyl in him that becomes a contributing factor so if you were the the cop with the knee and you're his attorney how would you argue the case here's how i would argue it i would say i knew that i was only putting enough pressure on him that you know it wouldn't kill him but i didn't know that under these special circumstances that he had these drugs in him i didn't know that was an extra dangerous situation so it was an accident i think that's what he'll argue but i think he'll probably lose and it'll be manslaughter anyway
um so we got that going on oh it's called excited delirium is what one of the police called it he was worried uh also known as agitated delirium now the delirium part is related to being on drugs and it means that you you become suddenly violent or could so so we now have an evidence that the police were sort of doing a field diagnosis you know they're not medically trained

[36:53]

you know they're not medically trained but they are trained to recognize situations so that they can do risk management and one of the police officers was was calling it out as maybe this excited delirium or agitated delirium which means that they were recognizing that although the guy seemed nominally not dangerous that it was the nature of his condition that could cause him to flip to dangerous very quickly so that was actually discussed and now you understand why three of them were holding him down because they suspected there was a high likelihood that he could turn from friendly to dangerous uh at you know at a snap because of the condition they were observing not because of him or not because he was black but because of the the medical condition they observed their case is going to be a lot stronger than you want it to be i'll tell you um yeah all right so we have two battling

[37:54]

all right so we have two battling autopsies which of course the fake news is reporting incorrectly so the fake news is reporting that the family's autopsy the one they paid to have done shows that the cause of death is homicide whereas the other experts are yeah i think i think in both cases it's homicide yeah i think in both cases it's homicide but
but if you look at the autopsy report the official one it says cause of death homicide and then at the bottom it has a footnote that nobody's going to report you know what the footnote says the footnote says you should ignore that word homicide that's what the footnote says i'm paraphrasing but that's what it says it says don't take homicide as homicide it says that right on the same page it says cause of death homicide and then just right down the page it says just to be clear homicide

[38:56]

it says just to be clear homicide doesn't mean legally homicide it just means there was a person involved in the guy died basically there was another person involved the actions of the other person you know were somehow implicated in the death so in other words the coroner report does not say a crime happened
and they're clear about that they say it in direct language this report does not determine that a crime occurred it's very important if cnn i'll be amazed if cnn ever reports correctly
uh sorry i got a security i got a security alert while i was on live stream here but it was just a bird walking across my security camera you know we live in the kind of time where um i don't want to tell you that uh i i'm afraid of for my own life because

[39:57]

i i'm afraid of for my own life because you know my risk is actually pretty low but you know if i talk about things in public you know one worries that that crazy people can can find you or whatever but uh of course people like me are taking extra security precautions so i i have this thought in my mind of how that would go down and it doesn't go down well for other people let's just put it that way all right um so we got the battling autopsies we've got cnn who will probably never mention fentanyl or that its role in this whole thing which is pretty big in all likelihood we don't know nothing nothing is known about this that's one thing all right um [Music] let me tell you let me just use this let me ask you this uh i predict not i predict i estimate so on back of the envelope and estimate i would say that antifa has killed more

[40:58]

i would say that antifa has killed more black americans or will kill more black americans in the coming decade than all of the police action put together so that's my prediction so my prediction is that antifa given given their contributions the riots and the economic devastation which they're causing right now
now my estimate is that antifa if you were to do the math would be directly responsible for maybe i know tens of thousands of black american deaths through the mechanism of extra poverty imagine trying to be a young black man in an urban place and asking for a job at any future retail organization good luck good luck because if the goal of the riots was to decrease racism of course the opposite happened of course because you know tragically there the protesters are going to get very much of the opposite of what they

[41:58]

very much of the opposite of what they were protesting for so in the making it worse category this is sort of the world class most making it worse thing you could ever do now i think a lot of the protesters are well intentioned even most maybe most of the protesters are well intentioned certainly not the looters uh certainly not antifa but a lot of people are well intentioned still i think you could do a calculation to figure out um how many black americans antifa will kill over the next 10 years compared to the police and i don't think it'll be even close i think the numbers would be you know in rough numbers it's going to be something like tens of thousands of black americans will be killed by antifa through poverty and maybe a few hundred over ten years would be killed by the police so i think it's sort of a few hundred that the police are killing to maybe tens of thousands of black

[42:58]

to maybe tens of thousands of black americans that anti-follow killing and that's not counting that's not counting the fact that good luck getting a job because of what you know even if the economy came back you know and if if you go in for let me ask you this i put this uh poll up just before i went live so i can i can check the results and i'll ask you this if you were an employer would you and you somebody came in for a job in the future and you saw in their social media history that they had participated in the protests in any fashion in any fashion it doesn't matter if they were peaceful doesn't matter if you know they weren't just in any fashion would you hire them would you hire somebody who participated in the protests knowing that their participation was the shield for the looters and antifa knowing that that was certainly going to to do that how many of you would hire

[43:59]

to do that how many of you would hire somebody who had taken part in that because i would go on record as saying i would not um and i think that's important i would never hire anybody who had participated in any fashion in the protest now i might make an exception if they if it was the first night you know if somebody came in for a job and said blah blah and i said well i've looked at your social media you were at those protests if they were to argue to me whoa no no i went the first night the first night it was really just a protest it just devolved i would take that into consideration and i would say oh okay so really if you if you saw how bad it was after the first night and you adjusted by not going the second night i could live with that because maybe that's a good person good cause i saw that it didn't work out adjusted totally i could live with that but if they went more than one night after we knew that the writing was happening

[44:59]

happening uh all right so here's here's the poll i did online so of course this is not a scientific poll i said would you hire someone whose social media history showed they were part of this week's riot looting protests uh the people who said of course they're good people three percent three percent of the people who answer this now of course these are mostly conservatives who answered i think uh 79 said no why risk it and 18 said just show me the votes so really if you get rid of the 18 percent who just wanted to see the results it was 79 to 3 in favor of they would not hire somebody whose social media history showed that they had been even an attendee even just an attendee at the protests so why is the news not reporting that why do you have to hear that from me
right the news is no longer the news the news is now some kind of social programming you know the news is programming you

[46:01]

you know the news is programming you it's not uh it's not just giving you news so that's a pretty big story now what does it mean to declare antifa domestic terrorists well the the funny part about it is that the democrats have been suckered into supporting a a terrorist organization publicly so kamala harris is you know one of the people you know raising money for for a group that has just been declared domestic terrorists now of course if you ask kamala she'd say no i'm raising money for
for uh you know honest protesters who have a real cause but unfortunately she can't distinguish between who's getting bailed out who's antifa and who was a good person who was in the wrong place so in a very real sense not even in the political sense but in a real direct accurate factual sense camaleris is supporting domestic terrorists now trump has managed to be in a

[47:02]

now trump has managed to be in a position where his opponents are supporting terrorists who are destroying the country do you think he can lose election at this point
if things go the way they're going and trump becomes the the name that is associated with the coming crackdown because there has to be a crackdown eventually he almost certainly will be elected in the biggest landslide in american history because how many democrats are watching the carnage and watching their own lives being destroyed by their team a lot a lot of democrats just watched their entire lives be destroyed by their own side and they also watched that none of the republican cities seem to be even affected it's hard to not notice um and it's hard to not notice that one team is supporting literally terrorists now what do you do with this uh i heard

[48:02]

what do you do with this uh i heard andrew mccarthy say that there are enough laws on the books already that you don't need to define anybody as domestic terrorist it doesn't have any meaning but what meaning could it have we could give it meaning congress can make new laws right we know how to make laws so let's say we gave us a meaning what kind of meaning what kind of powers would you want to attribute to the domestic terrorist designation now of course the big risk is that once once it's even allowed that you could call domestic people terrorists the moment you allow that you're open to abuse because then there might be some future group that's not so bad that gets declared terrorist organization because it's politically expedient so you can see it would be opening uh pandora's box but we also might not have any choice in other words the risk reward here might be that well you just have to do it anyway so what could it mean to be designated a

[49:02]

so what could it mean to be designated a terrorist organization i'll give you some suggestions one thing is it could change the sentencing so i would argue that if somebody is responsible for the deaths of 10 000 black americans you should be considering the death penalty or at the very least life in prison so i would think that for antifa um given that they're destroying the lives of tens of thousands of people and that they're literally an anti-america treasonous group that something like the death sentence or life in prison would be appropriate now i don't think any of these things are going to happen i'm just this is just brainstorming
what about banning phones at protests now you can't really ban a phone but you could turn them off you could track them what about tracking them let me ask you this i would say that i have a security interest

[50:03]

interest as an american i have a security interest in knowing who the anti-fa people were or indeed knowing who was at the protest in general because i would like to keep them away from me because they would be dangerous to me i think it's a fair statement to say that anybody who attended the protests not anybody that's too much but that the average person who attended the protest would be physically dangerous to me because they might perceive me to be you know part of the problem so don't i have an interest in knowing where they are and who they are the same as i have an interest in knowing where a pedophile lives if you can publish the address and name of a pedophile because there's something special about that crime that means that if there's something special about some other crime the door is open so we have a precedent that in unusual circumstances the public has such an interest to know that you can violate the privacy of especially bad people such as

[51:05]

of especially bad people such as pedophiles because the the public health interest is just that great now since i'm literally at risk and so are many of you from even being in the same room as somebody from antifa it's sort of risky at this point don't i have a uh a citizen's right to know who they are and where they are and and to avoid higher than hiring them imagine if you accidentally hired somebody from antifa and you didn't know it well that's not good for your business is it might not even be good for your health so i would say that given that the we know the government is tracking all of our phones all the time shouldn't i have a right again i'm just brainstorming here every idea i toss out i'm well aware that the unintended consequences might be larger than the problem so you don't need to tell me these are good ideas or bad ideas we're just brainstorming so just brainstorming some more suppose we just made a list of everybody whose phone was at the protests

[52:06]

protests which would be pretty much everybody because i don't think too many people were there without phones so shouldn't i always be able to look at the list let's say i'm going to hire somebody shouldn't i be able to check them against the list of people who attended now i could ask questions and say why did you attend they might say i was shocked by the murder of a of a black man i just wanted to show my show my participation and you might say good enough i agree with that you're on you're on board maybe i may be up to you but i do think that the employer is owed that information for health and safety reasons because i think you could identify somebody who's actually anti-fog if you're talking to them it probably isn't that hard to identify antifa if you're looking for it you know if you know what to look for so i would just put that out there the the phones of all the people at the protests we could easily identify where where they were and when now you could

[53:06]

where they were and when now you could also do it a clever way which is you could say there's a public health information because there's a public health need because of coronavirus would you like would you not like to know if you're coming in physical contact with anybody who came in physical contact with thousands of protesters yeah i think you have a legitimate right to know if somebody intentionally put themselves in a highly infectious situation for your own health i think you have a right to know that is it likely that any of these things will happen i'd say no not likely at all what if domestic terrorists lose their right to privacy just the way foreign terrorists do foreign terrorists don't have any american privacy rights but supposed to domestic terrorists just for you know a mental experiment suppose they lost their rights of privacy as well their phones were tracked their social media was was tracked

[54:08]

media was was tracked uh et cetera would that happen i don't know just brainstorming suppose we did to domestic terrorists the same thing we do to uh foreign terrorists which is disrupt their economic network there are literally gofundme accounts for terrorists what that's right there are public gofundme accounts for antifa who are domestic terrorists why do we allow that so certainly there's something we could do with the finances something with the penalties something with privacy and identification i don't think any of them who will be identified if you could identify them certainly employers know not to hire them so that's pretty bad now i would say that the news business is
is um i think violating a public trust and this is both the left and the right i think both the left and right are violating a public trust by not reporting

[55:11]

a public trust by not reporting that the true statistics of crime so that they sort of let it stay out there that the black people are killed at a higher rate by cops allowing that to be believed by the public is such a an abrogation of responsibility that i would think the ftc could pull their licenses or the fcc or whatever whoever there must be somebody who could pull some kind of a license for that kind of bad behavior because the public is required to know that these pr protesters are dangerous both in terms of virus and in terms of just being around them they're terrorists and the people who march with them of course are supportive of terrorists by definition they don't have to mean they're supportive doesn't mean their intention is to be supportive but they are and they made that choice um so where and and i said it before where are my data projections we've got a million estimates for what's

[56:11]

we've got a million estimates for what's going to happen with global warming we saw all these estimates of who's going to die from the coronavirus we have estimates and data and graphs for every freaking thing under the sun the only one that matters today the only one that matters is this graph of how many black people antifa are killing because if the if the news we're reporting that fact or even just talking about the question imagine that cnn had a panel discussion and let's say it got picked up by the other news and the discussion went like this well we've run the numbers and we you know there's some there's some dispute about the estimates because they're always there always are but in general terms it looks like antifa will kill tens of thousands of black americans through their destruction of economic resources and and of course make racism much much worse i mean you can measure that with polls so where's that and then of course these people will never get jobs once they're

[57:12]

people will never get jobs once they're identified and eventually we'll be able to identify them all one way or the other where's the news reporting those basic facts because those are the basic facts that would reduce the temperature and help things because it would discourage people from continuing to do these things but the news is kind of actively encouraging it i would say yeah larry elder has has been one of the uh probably one of the only honest voices in this this whole situation because he's a black man and he's a conservative so he's capable you know he's got this uh sort of a safe position where he can say things that are true you know i think we've come to the point that the only people who can tell the truth in public are black conservatives think about that that'll blow your mind when you think about it a little longer the only people who are allowed even allowed to tell the truth

[58:13]

even allowed to tell the truth in public are black conservatives because they can say things white conservatives can't say and the other side is just lying so how about that um
all right let me just check my notes and see if i missed anything exciting
um and we've got police shootings in las vegas uh doc d.j dr funk juice reminds me uh he's a vegas resident that police were actually targeted last night police were targeted and shot last night now how much longer are we willing to go oh yeah jessie lee peterson is another truth-teller very very interesting man very interesting man jesse lee peters is one of the most interesting people i spent a little time with him he did an interview when i was on a book tour and there is something about that guy

[59:15]

and there is something about that guy that that is really i don't know he's got that x factor he's just got something going on i love that guy um
yeah candace owens can tell the truth although she gets she gets a lot of social blow back from it
it all right somebody says good to know because i'm a black conservative and you can tell the truth clinton is in court today for what uh scott can you find the laws on shooting terrorists well i don't think we're going to see any laws that would allow domestic terrorists to be shot i think you can rule that out estimate is that eight to ten innocent people are dead from the riots that's the small number i think that's worth reporting but the big number is what the economic devastation will do so i'm going to be advocating that we see those numbers just in the interest

[1:00:15]

see those numbers just in the interest of knowing the whole story yeah we we want to know the whole story uh we want to know how many black people antifa is killed now i was thinking that maybe the only if if you try to game this out and think what is the how do you get past this my best guess is like the coronavirus there are some things where the energy itself just dissipates after a time so it could be that after a certain amount of destruction the energy just dissipates that would be cool but there are certainly smart people such as rudy giuliani and people who understand crime and
and criminal minds and that sort of thing who say that as long as the criminals keep getting away with it the looting in particular especially the gang looting which is what makes it safe they lose in such large numbers that the police wisely just step back because there's nothing you can do they're so outnumbered and you don't want people to get hurt over merchandise

[1:01:16]

over merchandise so the looters have come up with a business model that we don't have any response to because if you don't actually kill them why would they stop because you can't arrest them and even if you rested a few so many would not be arrested it would still be a good risk reward so right now the business model of the looters is the superior business model they just come in large numbers they use social media they get some stuff they go home there's no real risk to them except of course the total destruction of the economy which will catch up to them eventually but the police don't have a response to that so if you're trying to say all right so where does this go one way is that police get better tools you know and maybe they prevent things early and they just figure out to be more clever and more effective that's certainly some of that will happen meaning that there's no doubt that the police will become more effective and will will bring in new tools we don't know what they are yet but we don't know if they'll be effective i suppose that doesn't work

[1:02:20]

effective i suppose that doesn't work suppose the business model of the looters just is so good that it goes from store to store to store and it's just every night and once they've robbed your town they just pick a new town until all the towns are robbed to nothing what would stop them because it's working as long as it works why would you stop doing it people do things that work the only thing i can think of and now imagine imagine if they started shooting people at or you know getting tough on protesters eventually a black person would be killed by a policeman what happens if one black person no matter what they were doing no matter the situation if one black person gets killed by one police officer even justified what's going to happen the whole the whole cities will just go up in flames now you could argue that it shouldn't and blah blah blah but it would you know it would so i got a feeling that the only way this ends

[1:03:22]

that the only way this ends is by taking out antifa in whatever way that can happen so antifa is the weak link meaning that the black people are not going to support antifa why would they because antifa is literally killing them by tens of thousands right now you know it'll take a while for the deaths but what they're doing guarantees the deaths of tens of thousands of african americans so i would think the black community would be perfectly happy if the you know if the government just went tough on antifa because that would take enough of the energy and of the situation that maybe that makes your other tools more effective but you gotta you gotta remove energy from the from the situation and that's the weakest link so i would say antifa is a weak link you gotta go after that hard and then see if you have enough tools to deal with whatever's left uh all right let's see legally can the fbi treat the antifa like the unibomber

[1:04:22]

like the unibomber mcvay or serial killers i would think so i would think so yeah difference being the immediacy of the actual crime
why are there george floyd inspired protests in europe i'm a bit baffled somebody says well let me explain that to you it's not about george floyd it's really not
not and the european uh protest proved that now which is not to say that there aren't lots of protesters who are there for
for for that explicit reason george floyd there are plenty of them but that's not what's causing the problem it's it's not the genuine good intention people who want to protest against discrimination and and racism they're not the problem you know we could have them marching all day long i'll march with them it's the looters and and the antifa of course so europe has plenty of potential looters plenty of potential antifa they

[1:05:24]

looters plenty of potential antifa they had their own lockdown they've got lots of young people if you've got lots of young people with too much energy especially males they need to go break stuff unfortunately if we could be sexist for a moment uh young males every type nothing racist here but young males of every type everywhere in the world if they don't have anything productive to do like go to work or go to war they're gonna break stuff it's it's built into the model they don't have any there's just too much energy there and it's not always productive energy so um somebody says restitution i don't know what that means but i can tell you that reparations is over as a as a topic you know i i had been supportive of reparations as at least a conversation you know my idea of it was not to give cash payments in any way but maybe target improving education in some way

[1:06:24]

target improving education in some way as
as as the form of reparations in other words giving african americans some kind of advantage for funding you know some kind of college experience as sort of a reparations now i'm not saying that was a good idea i was just sort of trying to brainstorm to find if there was anything any any weird combination of ideas that would get something like reparations but would not be odious to the political right i never came up with one certainly i never got close but i was willing to i was willing to embarrass myself by that conversation here again lack of ego is useful because it's a conversation that you get in a lot of trouble you get a lot into trouble telling conservatives they should at least engage in the conversation of reparations that's not a comfortable place to be but of course i don't care however as i promised you yesterday if there was another night of uh looting because the protesters are

[1:07:26]

uh looting because the protesters are so uncaring the protesters are so uncaring that they would create a situation that guarantees this death and looting i said that i would abandon the african-american community in terms of helping so so today that goes into effect so i would say that the first thing is uh reparations are off the table these are the reparations let me say that again this is the reparations the the cost the economic cost of this will be far greater than whatever checks could ever be written for reparations all right i mean i would look to an economist to actually do me the math but i think we just had the reparations these are the reparations because it's so expensive to build back these businesses and recover that i would imagine we're talking something in the trillion dollar range just from these riots probably trillion and i can't imagine that reparations would have ever reached a trillion dollars so uh somebody said

[1:08:27]

a trillion dollars so uh somebody said at latimer can help with that there's nothing to help with reparations are done reparations are are an historical fact there's nothing you have to talk about in the future that conversation is completely gone
uh and likewise i i just can't have any empathy i would say that while it is true it's always good to start with this no actually i'm gonna go
i was trying to control my temper this morning because i just don't think it's good to have too much temper so i'm gonna bring my temperature down and then i'm going to make a criticism of black lives matter compare this compare the slogan black lives matter to i have a dream i have a dream as just perfect persuasion in every way everybody likes it there's nothing to dislike doesn't cause doesn't cause a fight nothing like that when i hear black

[1:09:28]

nothing like that when i hear black lives matter does that feel like i have a dream does black lives matter feel like the same message as martin luther king that you know everybody should be equal you know we're heading that direction nobody disagrees let's get there together versus black lives matter because what do you hear when you hear black lives matter i'll tell you what i hear i hear that white white lives don't matter now is that what they're saying no no they're not saying that they're not saying that at all but it's what i hear when you hear when you hear i have a dream do you have does that sound anything like that's negative for anybody no it's a it's explicitly positive for everyone and indeed martin luther king included everyone when he talked about it everybody white and black you know you can rise to whatever level

[1:10:28]

whatever level he explicitly included everybody as being valuable that is why martin luther king has a holiday and black lives matter doesn't even have a leader that's the difference black lives matter um the the phrase black lives matter is destructive it's destructive to civilization i have dream is productive in a year i'm only talking about persuasion right so if you're new to if you're new to these periscopes on a persuasion level the phrase black lives matter makes things worse because what do white people say when they hear it all lives matter what do black people say when they hear all lives matter you're not taking it seriously i hate you now no i hate you for bringing up a problem that wasn't a problem no i hate you black lives matter is a divisive

[1:11:28]

divisive it's a divisive uh identity it's divisive now i don't know that it was meant to be i don't think that anybody thought down and said let me give let me come up with a good divisive slogan but they came up with one in fact it might be uh possibly the worst slogan of all time maybe because of the destruction it's going to cause so i think black lives matter as a slogan probably will kill lots of black people you know i i think it will be anti-productive because it creates division which creates more racism which creates everything bad if black lives matter simply rebranded as
as all lives matter there wouldn't be any riots it'd sort of be over if black lives matter rebranded themselves as all lives matter i'd be marching i'd be marching but if you want to make it about yourself um i think you have every right to do that

[1:12:30]

i think you have every right to do that because every group gets to take care of its community every right to do that don't have a complaint with that at all i'm just giving you some persuasion advice i'm not giving you you know life advice not telling you what you think i'm not telling you what you should think nothing like that you know everybody gets to make their own decisions in this world i'm only telling you that if you wanted to be effective you need to be effective with white people because otherwise you're just talking to yourself and black lives matter is a message from black people to black people when white people hear it it's divisive if you want to be divisive uh just start some protests that you know are going to bring antifa and looters and let us film all that so that we can make racism much much worse because that's what happened so i would say that black lives matter is a failed destructive organization with good intentions good intentions for you know the vast

[1:13:32]

good intentions for you know the vast majority of people who are who are associated all good intentions but
but execution uh solid failure all right that's for today uh let's see how this plays out and um i told you that i wasn't going to do evening periscopes anymore because the coronavirus shutdown was winding down but then i got a curfew last night even where i live i live in like the the safest place in the whole world even i had a curfew freaking curfew i broke the curfew of course i'm not going to pay attention to a curfew in my town but uh yeah it's not like there's any risk around here but the fact that there was a curfew makes me think maybe i should do some evening periscopes but i haven't decided on that yet all right um yeah people get very angry when you say all lives matter it's a divisive slogan that's all for now i'll talk to you later
