Buckle up and get ready to dissect the perplexing Fat Tony logic of AOC and its potential ripple effects on the surge of looting incidents - from the streets of Philadelphia to the houseboats in San Francisco. Will stealing items to feed one's family become a norm? Are the 'Sea Bound Bandits' in San Francisco a result of the same logic? We're breaking down these riveting narratives and uncovering the hidden layers within them.

Unmasking the impacts of Joe Biden's past policies, we address the elephant in the room - the black community's grievances. We're not shying away from the hard questions: Have these policies truly served them, or have they been disproportionately targeted? The discussion takes a somber turn as we tackle the rise of fentanyl and how it's claiming lives in San Francisco. As we navigate this landscape, we also ponder whether people were better off under Trump. Lastly, we delve into the heart-wrenching predicament some may face due to Biden's prescription plan for seniors, potentially denying them access to life-saving drugs. Stay tuned as we also stir up the pot with a preview of the upcoming presidential debates and the election season.

Speaker 1:

What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. You don't know what that is, mr Trash. I'd show you. But I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too fucking blind. If I were a man I was five years ago I'd take a flamethrower to this place.

Speaker 2:

Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth?

Speaker 1:

You want answers. I think I'm entitled to it. You want answers, I want the truth.

Speaker 3:

You can't handle the truth. As the world gets crazier, as the world gets nuttier, the truth shall always set you free. This is Tim. This is Get Off my Law on the Mad Ramblers of a Gen Xer. Oh, we got more looting to discuss. This time it's hitting a little closer to home and also in San Francisco. Now they are stealing boats. You know you're in like a rich community or the community you live in has some sort of financial wherewithal because of the fact that criminals are stealing boats and this is becoming a prevalent crime in San Francisco. But in the city of Philadelphia there was a looting spring where evidently in Center City Philadelphia, which is not too far from where we live, they looted Lulu Lemon, the Apple Store, foot Locker and a few other places. And every time I see these looting stories I think of Alexander Yorakos and the wonderful logic that she had.

Speaker 4:

And so they go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money, so you maybe have to. They're put in a position where they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry that night.

Speaker 3:

Oh see, so there's shoplifting bread, I get it now. So these people and these youths youths, did you say youth, what's a youth? And Center City Philadelphia are looting because of the fact that they're trying to feed their family and they need bread. I'm so stupid. I just think of the Simpsons and the gangster Fat Tony.

Speaker 4:

Thanks Say. Are you guys crooks?

Speaker 2:

But is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? No, well, suppose you got a large starving family. Is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? And what if your family don't like bread? They like cigarettes. I guess that's okay. Now what if, instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away? Would that be a crime, bot?

Speaker 3:

Hell, no. So AOC has the Fat Tony logic. I think that's just wonderful. Her decision making process is based off the Simpsons.

Speaker 3:

Hey, listen, you're hungry. It's okay to go steal bread. But if you can't steal bread, go steal an iPad, go steal a new iPhone titanium 15 and turn around and sell it so cheap that it's practically giving it away. So it's not really stealing, so you can feed your family. So that's what they were doing these juveniles were doing last night in Center City, philadelphia, again at the Apple Store, lulemon, foot Locker and other places. They were looting bread to feed their starving families.

Speaker 3:

I feel like such a racist. I don't know what I was thinking. Now, of course, these kids were all nabbed after midnight. There was between 15 and 20 people were arrested during this looting spree. Now, of course, two firearms were recovered, because when you're going out to loot bread for your family, you need a firearm. Just makes more sense. But of course, they attacked the Apple Store because if you want to buy bread, the best place to get bread, buying money, would be to go to the Apple Store. Now, I love it because there was no arrest made in connection with the Apple Store incident, but several iPhones and tablets that were taken from the store were basically recovered a few hours later, of course, because they all have tracking devices on them. If you're going to loot, I'm going to give you looting 101 lessons. If you're going to loot, do not loot something that has a tracking device in it. Apple Store has the ability to track you once you turn it on, and I love it, because they were saying that certain products in the Apple store were left behind due to the devices.

Speaker 3:

Comprehensives, anti-theft technology. Comprehensive, that is. My brain's not working, getting over a cold, so please bear with me. My speech is a little off the last couple days because I have a lot of nasal drainage. I know everyone wants to hear about that. So a police officer told one of the local Philadelphia outlets that more than a hundred juveniles took items from the Lou Lemond store. No injuries were reported, but that's okay, because the fact that we're just buying stuff to get some bread and now in the city of San Francisco they are raiders.

Speaker 3:

We're gonna call them raiders, because Oakland has raiders have left Oakland. These are now referred to as sea bound bandits that are terrorizing the San Francisco Bay. Now some of the residents are blaming the surge of homeless camps? Well, yeah, of course, if you have homeless people on drugs, they usually have a tendency to steal to feed their addiction. Now these burglars are raiding yachts and houseboats all through the Oakland Alameda area, and the surge is evidently exponential. They steal everything in a value. Then they either sink the ships or the boats I don't know what you call a yacht, I think you just call the yacht or they just dump the remnants of whatever they plundered into the harbor or just leave it alongside the shore. Now each of these attacks are saying cost the tax, but cost to boat owners, I should say, hundreds of tens of thousands of dollars. And now I love it because when you read the story they talk about, this is a tight-knit boating community. Wow, a tight-knit boating community. You know your county has money if you are a tight-knit boating community.

Speaker 3:

So they are now blaming the homeless encampments which are all through San Francisco and as the weather they said was getting better because I guess maybe they had some inclement weather in San Francisco, you have to have good seas to loot. I'm a TOEB Pirates. It's funny, though, if you think about the Oakland Raiders, and their mascot was the pirate with the eye patch and NFL films used to have, the great Joan Vesonda would be the autumn wind is a pirate. They haven't really been talking about Oakland. So what they're doing, what these bandits are doing smoky and the on-water bandits what they're doing is they're taking these boat called dingies, which are small recreational vehicles, and they're riding around and they're just stealing stuff off people's boats. This is literally Pirates of the Caribbean, but in San Francisco. And I love it because the police are saying it's a waterway, so it's very difficult to draw a line. So we're not exactly sure who's regional approach this is. Is it to Coast Guard? Is it Oakland PD? Is it the Alameda Police Department? They're not sure because, honestly, you know this is a big ocean or a bay or Harbor or whatever. So they're not sure where the the demarcation lines lie in reference to who has the capability to make the arrests on these water bandits I keep thinking of, I think, I think what is it?

Speaker 3:

It was Rocky V, when they had the promoter that was supposed to be like Don King. And you know, at one point Rocky beats Tommy Gunn in the street and the promoter looks at the camera and says, goddamn, only in America, that's, that's this. Only in America could teens go out and loot? Can we now have robbery on the high sea by bandits going in dingies? I just think that's funny. I just think the word dingy is funny Bandits going in dingies to go on yachts and steal stuff so they could sell it. Because Fat Tony said it best Thanks.

Speaker 4:

Uh say Are you guys crooks?

Speaker 2:

But um, is it wrong to steal a loaf of bread to feed your starving family? No, well, suppose you got a large starving family. Is it wrong to steal a truckload of bread to feed them? Uh-uh. And what if your family don't like bread? They like cigarettes. I guess that's okay. Now what if, instead of giving them away, you sold them at a price that was practically giving them away? Would that be a crime, bot?

Speaker 3:

Hell. No, so it's not a crime According to AOC and the other liberals and Nancy Pelosi, who seems nothing. I love Nancy Pelosi because she is so. She is so bite and ask. She's been bite and ask before. Biting was bite and ask in reference to the fact that it's just to her, nothing is a problem. Well, san Francisco's great. Well, yeah, we got a little bit, we got a little bit of a homeless problem, but but it's okay.

Speaker 3:

Everyone knows that, um, or everyone that knows me, I should say, knows that I'm in the hip hop and hip hop and rap. But I'm into all school stuff, you know I go back to, you know, the advent of hip hop and and rapping and you know that type of culture and that type of music and it's just something that I enjoy listening to and it's something I enjoyed listening to when I was younger and you know it's, it's, it's just, you know. You know I don't consider myself an aficionado, I just like certain you know artists and it's great. So I guess Joe Biden had to go out and introduce LL Cool J and I think was MC light in reference to, I believe they got into the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 3:

And let's just listen to this a second, because this is true, biden, hold, hold on, hold on, say, let me see, let me see if I can't, let me see if I can't find this and pull this up, hold on, say let's, uh, let's, let's try, let's try. Here we go, let's, let's read, let's, let's replay that. And of course we can't replay it. Why? Breaking legacy of hip hop in America LL J cool J.

Speaker 1:

By the way, that boys got, he got, man's got biceps bigger than my thigh.

Speaker 3:

Okay, okay, joe, I LJ cool. Mo D, true Dupree, mc hammer light, latifah King J is awesome. And then he finishes it out with calling him boy and this isn't the first time that he is. He has said that word or are slipped up and said what he probably and I Always get this from people you have a voice in your head and when your voice in your head says something, you don't always need to turn around and Then expel out of your own mouth what the voice in your head is saying. The problem is, joe does that a lot.

Speaker 3:

Joe has a tendency to say the quiet part out loud, because we know Joe is kind of a racist. Go back and see some of the things that he said about Barack Obama when he was president. Go back to the things that he said was a. What is it? Charlemagne, the god? You know if you don't vote for me, you ain't black. He's kind of a racist. Yeah, he's a. He's a crotchety old man. And they put him in these events where the only thing that could potentially happen is that he embarrasses himself, and he does a great job. He does a wonderful job in embarrassing himself.

Speaker 3:

It's interesting that there is such a seismic shift right now in the black community, especially among males, towards Donald Trump, because they see all these lawsuits and all these cases and all these charges being filed against Donald Trump and some are frivolous and some seem to be definitely politically motivated and Sometimes, when these decisions come down, you have legal scholars that are saying this, this decision really isn't grounded in law, and they see this and they make a parallel to their own lives, because the fact that we can't sit there and say there isn't racism, we can't sit there and say there isn't prejudice, we can't sit there and say that the police do not target minorities. You can't say that because, you know, in some instances it's a hundred percent true. And Then you have Joe Biden who's who is your president? Saying these things. And and then, if you go back to the 90s, joe Biden, it was the ones that championed the crime bill that incarcerated hundreds of thousands of African Americans, especially men, for extended periods of times, for what now would be a, an offense that would get you released without even a fine, and these people spent million, million I'm not millions, but these people spent so much more time in jail back in the you know, the 90s and the 2000s, then they would even think about sentencing now, because if you send someone to that now it's, it's because of the fact that you need to be kinder and you need to be gentler, because criminals need to be rehabilitated, because they don't just go out and loot, because fat Tony said at best, what if your family doesn't like bread? What if they like iPads? So you have this guy in Joe Biden.

Speaker 3:

That's basically, at times, a racist, if you literally you know, if you literally listen to some of the things that he says and put into and put it into context. I've always talked about the facts that when you speak about something, you a lot of times you need to speak about it in context. You can't just play a clip and just say, okay, you know that that's the end of the clip. No, you need to talk about it, you need to understand and and that's kind of what you're you're seeing right now with certain segments of minorities communities they're looking at where they better off Under Trump. Then they are now and I know these are venerable Korean. Jean Pierre likes to talk about the fact of everything's going well. Everything's fine, all is well, don't worry about it. Sorry, I'm drinking some of my black rifle pumpkin spice coffee. All is well. Nero is sitting there fiddling while Rome burns. We have millions of people streaming across the border, but his border policies are in place. They're taking care of this crushing immigration Attack, and I should rephrase that crushing illegal immigration attack. It's an attack on the border. We played the sound effect, we played the sound clips of all the people showing up on trains and then, like I said, we don't take care of our own cities.

Speaker 3:

Going back to San Francisco for a minute, san Francisco is on track right now to crush the overdose death record. As, basically, addicts now they're saying, are dying in the streets. They're calling it a zombie apocalypse. There were 563 overdose fatalities in the Golden State alone, and that's between January 1st and August 31st, and that's and that's what they know. That's what they know of that puts the city on pace to hit 845 overdose fatalities in 2023. That what's gonna surpass the then record of 725 in 2020.

Speaker 3:

They're talking about it's fentanyl. They're talking about its contaminated drugs that are sold on the street. They're talking about it's also meth, that it's crack, it's basically everything and and you, they have literally blocks of blocks of people, thousands of people are saying intense on the street and they're yoke and they're they're mostly using meth and fentanyl. Out of 563 of the overdose deaths in San Francisco this year, 456 were involved in fentanyl.

Speaker 3:

Now, fentanyl, of course, you know a stream. It is just streaming across the border, is running across the border because, a lot of time, what these drug traffickers do? They take all these illegal immigrants or migrants. What do we have you call, what call these people illegal aliens, and they Basically flood the border with them. So the border patrol is so Involved in capturing and facilitating these people's release into the country because that's all they're doing that this is allowing the cartels to Smuggle large quantities of fentanyl over the border.

Speaker 3:

But don't worry, joe. So companies are leaving San Francisco in droves. We have boat pirates are mighty on the seas and the Bay of Oakland and Alameda, the Alameda Bay, robbing yachts. You have people turning around and just saying, hey, listen, if I'm truly thinking about this, am I better off than I was under Trump, than I am right now? The answer is always no. I'm not better off now, I'm worse off, and we see that in some polls that are coming out, that Trump now, even with all of his issues, now has a 10-point lead in the head-to-head battle with the wonderful Joe Biden.

Speaker 3:

Now, if that's not scary enough to think about, we are going into the cold and flu season, we are going into the COVID season and we've talked about this once before that amoxicillin is still in shortage. And the shortage continues. Prescriptions have plummeted, they say, and amoxicillin, if you don't know, is like it is an antibiotic which is widely used with kids and it's been on the FDA shortage list since October of 2020. This should be scary for everyone. In a recent study that showed that a group of physicians from Boston's Children's Hospital determined that the shortage began, the odds of a children being prescribed amoxicillin for an ear infection plummeted by 91%. The study included 3,076 children averaging 3 years of age that were treated at one health care provider's facility. Most of the manufacturers right now did not show the reason for the amoxicillin shortage or provide an estimated timeframe for a resolution.

Speaker 3:

I love this because, like I said, joe Biden likes to talk about. Well, I have been lowering prescription prices for all these seniors and this and that. But okay, joe, here is something for children. Here is something that treats sinuses, ear, throat, skin, urinary tract infections that we cannot get. It's used to treat bacterial infections, also including pneumonia. Now the US FDA the US Food and Drug Administration officially announced a shortage of liquid amoxicillin back in October 28, 2022. Now, that was a year ago. What have they done to remedy this issue? What have they done? You see, all these things that Joe likes to talk about, but the problem is, he doesn't want to talk about things that are, like I don't know, actually important to the everyday Americans he's not talking about. I lowered prescriptions for seniors. Well, joe, that's great, because you are a senior man. That's why maybe you're lowering it for yourself.

Speaker 3:

Now, the flu and respiratory viruses are not treated by antibiotics and experts are warning that they could trigger other conditions and infections that do require amoxicillin. So, if you have a respiratory virus or the flu, don't think you're out of the woods because of the fact that, like I said, the condition can cause infections that require amoxicillin. Now, this is going to be shocking to certain people. Don't be shocked by this. Don't be shocked by this. Much of our amoxicillin supply is made overseas. I know that's shocking to you. Now, dr Mark Siegel says a vast majority of the active pharmaceutical ingredients used to make amoxicillin come from China and India. I know this is shocking to people. He also said that both from the demand of overprescription by pediatricians for what has often been a viral infection. So he is saying that certain people have overprescribed in it but that's not going to cause this shortage. So in liquid amoxicillin is not available. Siegel says there are alternative drugs, but you don't want to overuse those drugs either because it could breed more resistance. But don't worry, joe, you're working with the drug companies. The lower cost for seniors.

Speaker 3:

My wife God bless her who puts up with me on a day to day basis, she has a severe nut allergy. I mean severe. She could look at a nut and go into anaphylactic shock. I'm not joking about that. And she carries EpiPens because of the fact that if she does run into contact with a nut and either food or touching or something, she needs this EpiPen, basically to give her like 45 minutes of life as we could take her to a hospital and she can be treated properly. And now again, an EpiPen is a life-saving instrument. I got a and we work with her. We work with her allergist and a lot of times we get these coupons that we get the EpiPens for a discounted price. But we were looking the other day, because Joe Biden's always working on these drugs manufacturers it would cost us almost $500 to $750 for one EpiPen if we didn't have these coupons, if we didn't have multitudes of insurance. Now, this is something that is life-saving.

Speaker 3:

Now Joe Biden wants to talk about well, I'm getting prescription courses down for seniors Great, why don't we work with I don't know a device such as an EpiPen, which is life-altering and changing because of the fact that it can save your life when you run into a dramatic situation because of the fact of an allergy, that these are in such high demand and the price is so high that some Americans are not going to be able to afford it. If we had to pay the full price for the EpiPen, of course we're going to pay the full price of the EpiPen because it's to save my wife's life, and that just kills me, that just makes me sick. That all he wants, that's all he wants to talk about. I'm helping seniors do this. Okay, what about the children that are sitting there and cannot get a Moxicillin? What about the average American who cannot get an EpiPen? What about those people? But we're just going to just sit there and be like, ah, it's okay. It's all right, joe, we don't need to worry about that because of the fact that everything costs more now to live, but you're doing such a great job.

Speaker 3:

Oh, we got a lot to talk about in the next couple of days. We have another presidential debate. We have the elections coming up, not surely? But we're going to get into the election season, or to the silly season we like to call it. Let's just keep the blinders off. Let's keep our eyes in here, open Focus. If you see something that doesn't make sense, it normally means it doesn't, and just remember this the truth shall not be free. This is Tim. We have a lot of things coming up from local max for left. That was very exciting. I bet I'm not always going to speak about landlady.
