Ever wonder what it's really like behind the badge? Strap in as I take you through the highs and lows of police work, from the intensity of life-or-death decisions to the aftermath that often goes unseen. The valor and the vulnerability come hand-in-hand for those in uniform, and I'm here to share it all — including a Medal of Valor story and the lighter side of how a hurricane became a comedy of errors in the media's hands. It's not just about the adrenaline; it's also about the often-misinterpreted encounters with firearms, the growing rift between officers and communities, and the political powder keg we're sitting on.
Transitioning from the streets to the beats of social media, I untangle the web of our digital identities. We tackle the tough stuff, like the unintended audiences for platforms like OnlyFans and the battles we face protecting kids in a world where online age checks are as flimsy as a fake ID. I muse over the paradox of privacy in our share-everything culture and the long shadow global tech giants cast over our personal freedoms. It's a candid look at the push and pull between our public and private lives, and the societal ripples from what we do—and don't—share online.
Lastly, buckle up as we navigate the turbulence of current American life. We dissect the raw realities at the Texas border, the whispers of civil strife amidst a post-pandemic America, and the question of national security that looms over us all. From the challenges faced by local organizations against a backdrop of human trafficking to the personal sacrifices of those on the front lines, this episode doesn't shy away from the complex web of issues that define our times. Plus, a glimpse into the heart of law enforcement reminds us of the courage it takes to serve and protect in an ever-evolving society.

This isn't your typical deputy dane, so listen at your own risk. Sit back and enjoy.
Speaker 2:Good morning everybody. Welcome to the deputy dane morning show. I appreciate all y'all for being here. We got some stuff to get into. I really don't know what we're gonna get into, but we'll get into something.
Speaker 1:Sit back. Oh, oh yep, there's the sirens.
Speaker 2:I think we're all gonna be detained. Sit back and enjoy the show. Good morning everybody. Welcome to deputy dane morning show. It's been crazy. I've been back and forth and I know and I'm sorry, I'm trying to get better with it. It's just man, I've just been back and forth and I'm trying to. We'll fix this, we'll get through this, we'll make it happen. Just please bear with me. I promise we'll get better.
Speaker 2:A lot of things been going on. I have some big cases I've been working on. I've had court on a few big cases, done search warrants on some cases. A whole bunch of stuff We've.
Speaker 2:I mean we've recently had an officer involved shooting in my area. That was awful. Officer's okay, suspect is alive. Just a bad deal. Officer's really really struggling with that.
Speaker 2:People think that cops love to kill people and we love to shoot people or whatever that nonsense is. It's not something that we enjoy, it's not something we want to do and that's a prime example that this officer is a friend of mine, a coworker of mine, and I'm watching him struggle with this. So many people want to think that they'll be able to do something at the spur of the moment. Oh, yeah, you can do that. Oh, I'd shoot him, I'd do this, I'd do that. I'd sit there and like point fingers and say what you would do until you're in that situation, the situation I was in, where I received the Medal of Valor or whatever. Blah, blah, blah. It's the easiest way to go back to it. I don't want to go. You know that. One time with the gun I told you about that. Way you know what I'm talking about. On the case I was talking about. So with that case I had a lot of people in my area officer wise make fun of me saying that they would have shot the dude, they would have done this, they would have done that. I didn't want to shoot the dude. I never want to shoot somebody. If it comes down to it, I will, but I don't want to. It's not my goal to do that.
Speaker 2:It might happen, who knows, especially in the times that we're in. You know, back in the day law enforcement never fired their firearm unless it was for training. Majority of law enforcement not all law enforcement, majority of law enforcement never fired their firearm unless it was for training. And nowadays it's not the case. Nowadays it's happening more and more, but a lot of people are going against cops more and more and bucking the system more and more and it's getting bad and, as far as the media portrays one way or the other, things are getting crazy.
Speaker 2:Right now, I don't know where we're headed in this country. I don't know if we're going to have a civil war. I mean, you've got one state that's going against the president which should that be Texas, with what they're doing at the border, and you have all these other states jumping in. If this isn't the verge of civil war, which man? I'm really turning into a conspiracy show. I really swear to God I'm not that guy and I don't mean to. I'm watching what's going on. I don't watch the media because the media is going to fill you up with a whole bunch of craziness and that's why I believe they're trying to get rid of TikTok. I believe they're trying to get rid of TikTok because we're getting free press, we're getting people that are living on the border. These people are telling their side of the story. They're getting it out. If you've ever watched the news, they always find the dude that should not be recorded and that's who they're going to find.
Speaker 2:We had a tornado in my area a long time ago and it was on the fire department A long time Jesus, I'm getting old A long time ago. This tornado is heading right towards us. It hit our area. I grew up in the city, just on the edge, a suburb of the city, and I was at the edge of the suburb towards the country, so my fire department was kind of in the city, but also the boonies kind of weird deal, but very nice area, very well-spoken people. My fire department was filled with great people and the guy I'm about to talk to amazing dude, very knowledgeable in the fire service, very knowledgeable in anything. Very good dude, awesome guy that. He sounds Like you would think someone in a trailer park would sound. That's talking about a tornado and that's who they went to. There's all of us sitting around. He wasn't even our PR guy. I have no idea how he ended up on the weather channels, information or like report. They're like in Oklahoma. They were the bad tornadoes though.
Speaker 2:We're gonna go talk to this firefighter and he's gonna tell us Dang man, I tell you, man, I was sitting out there, dolphins, and then they all saw that nadir and the natives coming right. Ass. I said all this is gonna be bad for my people. So you know I got ready. You know, I got ready to put all my stuff on so that way, once the nadir passed, we'll be all got there and we'll fight. That nadir will help everybody out there. You know, now there's bad. You know it's with the pressure and the damn pressure and the spinning pressure and all stuff and all the pressure and it's all they, and damn, I tell you what we're gonna go help people. You know, and and and he had a helmet cam on.
Speaker 2:That's my brother, by the way, who had the helmet cam and not the guy talking. Hey, I had a helmet cam on and we didn't know this had end up national media. But these new helmet cams, they's nice, you know. They can really show everything that we're dealing with and what we're doing, you know. So it really got to show the ins and outs of what we were doing. We saw a little puppy. We saved that puppy. That puppy's good and that's who they found. Yeah, my brother was one wearing the helmet cam. Helmet cams were new at this time. Uh, this, jesus Christ, I'm old, so it was kind of like a body cam For fire department you put on your helmet.
Speaker 2:My brother had one awesome videos on there of us making entry. Now they're terrible, they're grainy. It's wild how we can look back and see grainy shit. Now we're like, oh, that is awful. But at that time you're like, oh my god, this is like living it again. It's hard definition. Now we're like man, that's pixelated as shit. That's awful. But uh, at the time it was cool video and they ended up on the weather channel. I wasn't on that crew, I was on the nether crew. They ended up on the weather channel. They found a puppy underneath the door and the puppy lived and it was a cool deal. But of course, they find the one person shouldn't talk, and that's what I think we're trying to take down.
Speaker 2:The tick tock for Tick tock is the ability that someone that's living on the board, that deals with this border crisis on a daily basis, can tell you exactly what they're dealing with. They can tell you, oh yeah, man, you should see everybody coming over. It's not just Mexicans, it's not just anybody from Central America. We're getting a bunch of Chinese coming in. We're getting a bunch of Middle Eastern people coming in. We're getting a bunch of Eastern European People coming in and they're giving us exactly what's happening because they're in the process. You know, if you look at all the other apps Snapchat, you can sit there and you can go to snapchat met and just look where you want to go and you can see videos that are being posted in that area. That's, it's a cool deal.
Speaker 2:If I want to go see what's going on in Congo, I can sit there and type Congo on tick tock. I can type Congo and Snapchat, I can go to where it is on the map and you're gonna see what's happening in Congo and You're getting it from people on the ground, not a reporter that has a side detail or a porter that's gonna sway it. That's going for their way. You know, right now there's so many people reporting on the border. If you're left it, they're saying this. If you're right, they're saying this and you're stuck in the middle. But tick tock has given us the ability that we can get Everybody's event opinions. Now I'm not saying that's perfect. I'm not saying it's great, because the problem is we're also getting an over influx of Things that we don't need to look about. Our kids are getting taught about sexual Organs and everything way too early. They get watching sex way too early, watching porn way too early.
Speaker 2:You know, I remember, I remember my first porno mag. I Was walking from my friend's house and this is wild. You look back now You're like good God, that's disgusting. But at this point I was like, oh my god, that's a pair of titties right there. A lot those titties, that's nice. That's the first pair of titties I've seen. And oh my god.
Speaker 2:So I was walking from a friend's house to my house and I couldn't. I don't know, I was probably, I Don't know, I was young, um, before internet was big, anything like that. And then I'm walking and in this cedar tree next to the road is a porno mag. Why you? I look back and I go hold on. Now I'm in the middle of a neighborhood, next to a cedar tree. Why is there a porno mag and how is it not Completely damaged by rain and stuff? It was a little bit crinkly from what I'm hoping Was rain, um, so here I go, I grabbed this porno mag, I take it home and I hide it, but man Saying them titties for the first time. Well, okay, I divulge, okay.
Speaker 2:So that was the first time I've ever seen that now kids are able to get on their cell phones when they have cell phones way too early. You know, I want to get my kid a phone just to keep track of them, but I'm getting them a flip phone. They don't need all this other stuff. They don't need to get on the internet and be able to search porn at any time. I'm a man, okay, I'm not anti porn. I'm not anti Sexualization.
Speaker 2:I think that it's over sexualized. I think porn's overdone. I think everything's everybody's now fucking their step sibling. I don't understand this. You can pull it up right now and I guarantee 80% of anything that pulls up off like the main pages is gonna be Stepmom got stuck in a dryer step. Sister, this step, this step, that step, this step sisters, this step aunt. Like good Lord, why is all these families fucking each other? Jesus, that's. It's wild to me. Crazy, crazy and that.
Speaker 2:But it's too accessible to these children. These children are getting way, way, way, way too accessible or exposed to sexuality the way you know, the way everything sexualized. On TikTok you're seeing little girls dancing way too provocative, dressing way too provocative. It's crazy. But at the same time we are in a generation now where these women are making more money than they would ever make going through school. There's women making more money in a year. In a year, then they would make going through college, getting a degree and working 30 years. They're getting as much money in 30 years, in one year, and it's yeah, you want to hate on it. I mean, even in my man that's kind of bad. Yes, whoa.
Speaker 2:But how can I hate on someone that's got set up their life by just I don't know? It sounds like I'm for the porn industry here. I mean, I'm not against it, I'm not for it. I think we have overlaid, overly sexualized everything. But it's crazy. How can you hate on a teacher that's not making a whole lot of money, that has now made more money in a year than she'll ever make combined in her full career? How can you hate on that? You can't. I mean I can't. I can't hate that.
Speaker 2:I understand what it's like to live paycheck to paycheck but have a degree and a respectable job, but still not making enough to be able to take my family to Disney World, still not making enough to be able to go on these vacations and stuff, you know. And that's fine, it's not. I don't do it for the money, I don't do it for that. I love my job, I love helping and I love being there and I make love. I love my job. It is, it's the best.
Speaker 2:I used to have a police chief and he annoyed the shit out of me. And this police chief was like welcome to the best job in the goddamn world. If I wasn't doing this, I'd be finding a way to do this. This is the best job in the world and you are honored to have it. I was like, ok, dude, that's cool. Like what you have now got? The front row ticket to the best show. I was like, ok, dude, like if you start telling me, like the quotes that are on the cat picture hanging from a tree, that success is gained by climbing the branches, that doesn't climb. Don't, don't, don't be that guy. Well, he kept going on and on and on and I was like, man, this is ridiculous. But now I'm like, oh, ok, well, it makes makes sense. I love this job.
Speaker 2:I've gotten out of the first responder world and I don't know what to do with my hands. I don't. I love being there, I love being in action. I get paid to be nosy. You know, a lot of people jump on these scanner pages, they jump on this, they jump on the news. I get paid to do it, I get paid to live it. Sometimes it's a little bit too live, but I get paid to do it. So I don't know, but I don't get paid a whole lot.
Speaker 2:So how can you hate? I've seen cops lose their careers because they do it. They're doing it on the side, you know why? I don't. I see the professionalism aspect to it. But the fact that you looked them up, you found them, you found them and you like they're not wearing their police uniform or their badge on what they're doing. You found them.
Speaker 2:So I think it's crazy, that it's hypocritical that someone that found them is going to be the one that calls and complains, even though you found them because you were on that site. It's crazy. I mean I'd never do it. I mean that's not something I would do. Daddy D D does he pick for me on OnlyFans? You can go check him out. I wouldn't do that at all. I can't see myself doing it.
Speaker 2:But then you look back at some of these people are making more money than I'm making my full career in a year, sometimes in a month. Now those are women that are overly sexual, over sexualized, and at the same time they've overly done it. But how can you hate on someone that can set up their life for success. I mean, it's hard, I'm not doing it. I have no desire to do it. I'm not. I mean I do have a desire to do that money. It'd be nice, but it's just a crazy thing.
Speaker 2:But then it goes back to how accessible is that? It's overly accessible. It's overly accessible to our kids that they can just get on there. Our kids are having over screen time. There's all sorts of stuff, and I'm guilty of it too. My son just got a tablet for Christmas and just so I can watch what TV show I want to watch from time to time I can put on his monster truck videos on YouTube and he'll be content. So I mean, he would much rather be outside playing, but I've used it as a tool to help me and I'm as guilty as anybody else. I'm not perfect, I'm not this, I'm not that, but I and I don't know what's right. I don't know what's wrong. I try to be the best that I can. So I understand, but it's just you have to watch what they're doing because it is overly everything's bad. If you, he was watching kids videos and then some stuff popped up that shouldn't have been on the kids video, so then I even have to watch what kids videos he watches. So you just got to. It's crazy. It's crazy.
Speaker 2:Our kids have the access to this easily. Well, our app says that you have to be at least 14 years old Will have you confirm their identity. No, all they did was they changed their year of birth a little bit further. And there you go. Now they have it. So I mean, it's kind of a cash 22. It's like a.
Speaker 2:If they confirmed identities, like some agencies are wanting to do to confirm your identity, then you can have a app on this or an account on the social media apps. But then also a lot of people which I'm kind of. The same way. I don't want to be overly well. That's kind of a bad thing to say, as I'm trying to grow a following. But I don't want the government to know everything which they already know they do. But I don't want my personal information out there as much as it is already. I'd rather keep some.
Speaker 2:And the thing that kills me also, as they're saying it's a, it's a safety issue, I don't think it really is. I really don't. There's things that they're worried about. The main worry that I'm seeing they're worried about is Communist China. If you're part of the CCP or anything like that, the agency is still owned by a China company. Yes, it's in the United States quote unquote but it's still owned by a Chinese company. If you are owned by a Chinese company and you're Chinese and you're still an avid supporter of China, china has the ability to control everything, and they do. They do. But so is Facebook, so does Instagram, so does all of them.
Speaker 2:The only one I've seen is completely free. No, I wouldn't say completely, really free. It is old Twitter, now X or whatever, and X is perfect because, man, that has gone to another thing. That's gone to where you can see a dude jack hammering his yard, like getting up concrete for an old patio, to a woman, jack hammer, jack hammering herself with a jack hammer 6000. Oh, in the same area. It's freaking nuts. And if you're a new account, there is no idea what you'll see. They'll be like what are your three interests? And you're like this, this, this, and they go. You like sports? Check out this chick with the volleyball pole. Whoa, okay, that was a bit much. I better watch it for a second, I'll see. But what this bill passes is it passes the ability that the government can shut down any social media they want at any time. You know they're supporting Facebook right now, but do we not remember just one month ago, facebook was in Congress defending itself?
Speaker 1:Hmm, hmm.
Speaker 2:But yet now they're going to support that over Chinese-owned TikTok. But if you look, I can't post certain things on Facebook. It could instantly get taken down for hate speech or racism or any of that. I'm like it's none of these, I didn't do any of that, but it'll get taken down because it's a very lean in one way, where TikTok I mean stuff gets taken down because it just people report me and stuff like that but it's not near as one-sided. It's crazy. I'm going to start growing on X just because it's a way that I can be myself. I am me. That's kind of how these podcasts you know.
Speaker 2:Every time I record one of these, I'm wondering are people really going to listen to me ramble, because that's a lot of what these are. It's me ramble about my thoughts and my feelings and how I'd feel about this. Like I've talked 20 minutes now and I haven't even gotten on anything I was going to talk about. It just kind of went all over. I don't even know what we've talked about. That's my ADD for you. I have to like when I go off in these other stores I have to bring myself back in Like okay, what started me talking about this? Okay.
Speaker 2:But yeah, crazy times were in. We've got all this started, I think, because I was talking about Civil War and I sound like conspiracy theorists. It's crazy. I'm sorry, guys, if you enjoy this stuff, I'm sorry, it's a lot of rambling. I really need to bring other people on. That way. I stay focused but at the same time, I'm not the only one rambling and I have a lot more fun making people laugh and I'm laughing and stuff. But I don't know, it's crazy time. Crazy time to be alive. You know, we got over the COVID bullshit.
Speaker 2:Now we're dealing with Texas not wanting to do this, but that's all. Oh, tiktok, that's the reason. I think they're going to get rid of it because of this and that, but the border is. There's so many people coming across that should not be coming across. Yes, there's people that deserve to come here. Yes, bring me your sick, your tired, your weak, your hungry and everything. I understand that and I think we should help, but I also think we need to help our own people before we focus on everybody else. But we are also not looking on how much, how many Chinese are coming through. If you want to do an invasion, do it where you have a bunch of people coming in. These Chinese people coming in are military-age men that are well groomed, well taken care of and really in shape. If that's not screaming something to you, I'm about to start screaming Wolverines. And then you have all these land being bought up by Chinese next to bases.
Speaker 2:My state's filled with marijuana grows and they're not even selling the marijuana. I mean, some do, some do it illegally, they take it to the States. It's all a cover. I mean it really is. It's like it's all a cover and we're doing it, we're allowing it, and a lot are coming across the border illegally and then they're human traffic and we're allowing that, we're supporting that. Oh my God, thank you.
Speaker 2:This, right now, is Church of the Blessings of Christ and we want to give water bottles and food to anybody that's made that trek across that creek, slash river, and now that you're here, we're going to give you some water bottles and we'll give you a pamphlet and here's some food, or even going to get you clothes to make it look like you're American and you haven't been walked through the desert. There you go, sweetheart, thank you. Come back to the Church of the Blessings of Christ and it'll be here every Sunday. You know we haven't yet to have one family show up to here, you know, but we're hoping. We're hoping, you know, we're just doing the word. We're just doing the word and helping everybody.
Speaker 2:We can't, you can't do that. You can't. It's just.
Speaker 2:These people are breaking the law. They're doing illegal shit. If what we need to do is every time someone does that down there on the border and supports these people, we need to file for harboring and abating. They're breaking the law. You're helping them. You're abating them by just letting them. You're giving them water, helping them get across. You're giving them stuff to hide their identity. Some I'm here to give them rides Crazy. You don't know who these people are. A lot of these are cartels, mule and drugs. They don't care. You're Susie, a soccer mom that goes to Sunday church every week and you're trying to go out there and spread the law. Lord's word, they don't care. What they care about is you gave them a ride. They can take that ride from you. They killed someone, probably on the way already. This is all hypothetical. They did not. Everybody killed them. And there are amazing people that are coming across the border that want to come here and work, but how many are here to hurt the society or to do something. We just allow it.
Speaker 2:And then now a Texan's government says, okay, I'm done, this is my state, this is my border and I'm done with it and I freaking support it. They got rushed. They got rushed there on the Texas border and they got through. Let's see, they pushed part of the border wall down Crazy. And now in Paso, texas, they got overwhelmed. Crazy, that's crazy. That's military men and women sitting out there with firearms and there's so many people there and they just rushed it and it's a wild, wild time to be alive, wild. And then you have a president that can't even remember his name or who's dead or who's alive, sitting there saying you better, stop it, you better. And how many states have jumped in to help man, if you step back and go okay? President says no. Texas governor says fuck you. And all these other states say yeah, fuck you. And they jump in with Texas, even sending highway patrolmen and military men, national Guard, to help Texas, while the government in Washington DC is saying stop it, break that down, break that down, if that doesn't sound like it's on the verge of civil war.
Speaker 2:And then now it's an election year, so everything's coming out. I'm sure there's going to be a new strain of Zima or whatever. Everyone you have to take three Jolly Rances and watermelon makes it the best, and everybody be good. You're going to have massive heartburn with Zima. You're going to have the loss of ability of taking care of yourself. There might be some vomit and some urine, but you know you just take care of the heartburn and everything else. Drink lots of water and you'll be fine. Just get through it. Got that.
Speaker 2:Everyone's trying to impeach Biden. Everyone's trying to get Trump where he can't even go and I'm not the biggest Trump supporter at it by any means. I think he's got his own flaws. I'll tell you I could afford gas while Trump was in. I could afford going to the grocery store. While Trump was in, unemployment was going down.
Speaker 2:I felt that other countries knew he's a bit unstable, what he was. I mean you can't go around saying grab him by the pussy and be a very stable guy. Other countries knew if we do something, there's going to be outcome. Countries now go, we could attack him and he won't even remember tomorrow. He can't even walk upstairs. Have you seen that dude ride a bike? Not, well, me neither. Crazy, we had that going on. You've got Russia threatening, you've got China threatening, you've got everything going on, and then that's just other countries. I mean in the entire country we have our own problems. You know, I watched a video of an officer evicting someone. Evictions are very, very dangerous, very dangerous. You never know where it's going to go.
Speaker 2:Think about it this way you have rights as US citizen, as you should. I have rights as well. We all have rights, and what I love is like people say, when I put the badge on, I lose my rights. No, that's not how that goes. But okay, we all have our rights. We do, and you deserve those rights and that you need those rights. But if you don't do right by society, you can lose certain aspects of those rights legally, such as an eviction.
Speaker 2:So this man's getting evicted from it looks like a hotel motel, like one of those like pay by the week type places is getting evicted. He doesn't like it. You can tell he's amped up on something. I'm sure there's some meth involved. The problem is he looks like he's a good scrapper, so they're evicting him. This officer even helps him pack his car.
Speaker 2:I used to do that stuff. I don't anymore because, as I'm carrying a box out. I am very vulnerable, I'm not doing it. I'm not not doing it. And we get asked all the time no, I'm not doing it, dude, I'm very vulnerable carrying this heavy ass box. You could do anything you want. You're already pissed, I'm evicting you. So he ends up getting in his car. He says he's going to sue all this stuff. You can't do it. And this officer tells him look, dude, just go, and you're not welcome back. If you come back you go to jail. So then it kind of breaks off and they come back and when they come back he walks up. He doesn't drive up, he walks up. So the officer walks down to him. This guy's on the phone with 911. I love when people call 911 on me, like I don't care, everybody that the dispatch knows where I'm at and everybody I work with knows where I'm at and they're probably heading my way if this dude's calling 911. So the guy starts arguing saying no, don't put your hands on me, I'll fight you.
Speaker 2:The officer pulls this taser, deploys this taser. Tasers are not 100% and people think they are. They are not. First, you have to have the proper spread. Second, you have to have I mean, if they're high as a kite, it doesn't work. I've had this dude work all the time. I've had this dude work and I'm like, well, we're about to party. So then he grabs his baton and this guy starts telling him hey man, you're a fucking pussy, you just tased me, don't you all fuck you up. And the officer has got to do his job. The officer's got to arrest him. He told him you come back, you're going to jail. So the officer grabs the baton and hits him. The guy ends up fighting him back and gets his baton. So now he's out of taser, now he's out of baton. Well then he's still trying to arrest this dude. And as he's trying to arrest this dude, the dude and him start wrestling and this officer gets shot with his own gun.
Speaker 2:This is the prime example. First of all, you have to make sure you train, which I don't train as much as I should. I do train. I don't train 100% as much as I should. There's officers that live in the Jujitsu gym and I wish I could, but I don't want to be that husband that was not there for my family. My job takes so much out of me and people I know call us an excuse and I somewhat is an excuse. But first, I can't afford the gyms. They're $100 to $200 a month. I don't have a spendable $100 to $200 a month. Second of all, it's an hour to two hours away from my family, on top of a job that already takes away from my family.
Speaker 2:The other day I worked 15 hours. So I worked 15 hours, was able to come home and hold my baby boy before I put him to bed. Baby girl was already in bed. It's past her bedtime. I was able to hold him, love on him and put him to bed. So how am I going to justify okay, I was here 15 hours, let me also go spend another two hours in the gym rolling around and not be there for my family.
Speaker 2:Now I understand there's outcomes that could also take me away from my family for good, but this is what I explain to people. We are not superhuman. We are not invincible. We are not and this is the prime example that this dude was unarmed. Now he did hit the officer with a twisted T. I'm a surprise officer. I'll live through that. That's a dangerous thing. If you haven't seen twisted T, it's a bad, bad deal, but slide over any time you fight a law enforcement officer, as long as you fight, I don't care if you brought a gun or not. You are fighting with a firearm Because it doesn't. You don't know this guy. This guy was in a perfect stance, a defensive stance. You can only see the body cam. But I can tell the way that he handled that officer. This dude's fought, this dude's trained Now, I mean meth took him down a bad road, it looks like, but this dude fought and he knew exactly what he was doing and he even told the officer I will beat your ass. Now he ends up shooting the officer with his own gun. That's a prime example.
Speaker 2:Anytime you fight a law enforcement officer, you are fighting with a firearm. Anytime. In my opinion, I think they should be charged that way. I had to fight a dude nonstop. He grabbed my taser, he did all sorts of stuff. They charged him with assault on an officer and he was out the next day and he's not doing any time. He's not doing anything. I almost had to shoot the dude. I was so exhausted. I was like I'm gonna shoot you dude, that's it, and I got hit. He got hit, we all fought. He was still in a vehicle, fell in. He had a firearm, all sorts of stuff, but yet he's out in no time.
Speaker 2:I think anytime that you fight a law enforcement officer, there needs to be a lengthy crime. There needs to be a lengthy time for that, because what's gonna happen now is you have taught him he can fight almost to killing us and getting away with it, and he might kill us, I don't know. So this officer was shot and then the dude. Then bystanders came up with a gun and told him to get off, get off, get off. And the dude did get off, but he still had the officer's gun. Now you can tell that the dude did not want to kill the officer and go to jail for murder, which that's awesome. That officer's alive mainly because this guy did not want to do the time for murder. Crazy, crazy. At any time he could have murdered that officer. There's nothing. Officer could have done nothing. His gun's taken. He's on the ground laying there after getting beat up and shot.
Speaker 2:This is a prime example. If you fight an officer, you are fighting with a firearm and it kills me. There's so many people like now that's not fair. It is fair. You did the crime. You knew the outcome. This officer told him over and over if you come back and go into jail. You knew it, you knew the crime. Sorry about you. This is the consequences of your action and now you're getting a more lengthy charge because you shot a law enforcement officer after disarming him.
Speaker 2:That dude's fucked Now the officer. He's gonna be mentally fucked, I bet you, and he's also at the agency gonna be fucked nonstop. There's already cops on these pages that are talking about wow, man, you fucking lost your gun. Oh, my god, blah, blah, blah, and like talking all this shit about him, talking about how he's done, I don't know. Bunch of just crazy stuff. He should have waited for backup, but that's. I'm not gonna armchair quarterback him. I wasn't there, I don't know. But this is the prime example that you have. People don't understand. Anything can happen at any time.
Speaker 2:This is an eviction from a motel and he already left and came back. So crazy times that we're living in, I don't know. It's just a wild ride, wild ride and that's that right. There is a bad deal. You know, the other day I ran a search warrant and a restaurant and an eviction on a place and it it was a bad deal. It's still not going case.
Speaker 2:There were several officers there, this dude, we had a search warrant for a place and a restaurant. They wouldn't come to the door. And as soon as we start breaching the door, that's when they're like oh my god, we were just sleeping, sorry, what happened? What's going on? And then the lady's like don't be mean, you're being mean to me, it's crazy. Then there's I don't know, it's just a wild ride.
Speaker 2:There was dog fights there, like their dogs inside, don't like the dogs outside. And they got out and they start fighting and we're trying to break that up while the rest of the dude it was a crazy deal, but the dude did the whole. I'm not walking out unless I see the warrant. It was downpour and rain. I'm not bringing out the warrant right now. And then, finally, as I fuck it, this is your copy, I'm going to bring it to you. This is your copy. So one of the other deputies brought him the copy, gave him the copy, and then he's like well, I'm not. And it's like yes, you are, yes, you are, and it was a search warrant. So he's came out and then we showed him the arrest warrant and he's like you can't arrest me. I'm like just can, but it was a whole long thing, and this dude has a history of sawed off, shut guns, assault on officers, a lot of things.
Speaker 2:So you never know where things can go. And these are the times I always send my wife hey, I love you, I'm going to do something, but I love you, um, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, um, but you're not going to get the full story. If something would happen, you would only get part of the story, especially because we don't have bodycams, which not average agency has bodycams. Bodycams cost a lot of money. It costs a lot of money and a lot of money that we don't have right now. We live budget, our budgets, struggling as it is at our agency. But I don't know. Sorry, I was trying to click something. Yeah, you just never know. You never know.
Speaker 2:And the more that these people get away with doing these things, the more it's going to happen. It's crazy, and the more the power we give our government, the more the power we lose. The ATF did their whole pistol brace, bs stuff. Well, now it's gone to two different courts and three different courts and they're all saying no. These courts are like no, you can't do it, that's against their rights, blah, blah, blah. A lot of things and I agree, the whole pistol brace. I don't have one, I lost it in a boating accident, but it was a prime example.
Speaker 2:If we don't read stuff, they're not going to take our firearms. The way that people think there's too many people are like, oh, would you go help the government come to get my firearms? No, I'm not coming to get your firearms. Okay, majority of state and local law enforcement nationwide said they don't want any part of it. I'd say 99% said they don't want any part of it. Do we have issues with things? Yes, we do have issues with things, but I don't believe that's the issues that they're saying that we have. I think a lot of the problem we have is when people get flagged that they shouldn't own guns. They don't get told to local law enforcement to go get those guns until it's too late and things happen. If you get flagged, I think there is a if you are posting shit about doing school shootings and stuff, no, I don't think you need to have guns. I'm sorry you don't Yours ticking time bomb.
Speaker 2:I can't prevent something if I'm not allowed to do it, which and that's what law enforcement's a weird fickle thing. So a lot of the time. Yes, there's people that argue that we don't need cops to show up after the crime. Yes, that's true, but if we stop them now, then we stop them from another crime that they could commit. If I stop a rapist after he rapes somebody, yes, that woman got raped or that child got raped and it's terrible. I have no patience for rapists. I have no leniency for rapists. But yes, we stopped a rapist, but yes, it was after someone already victim, but we've stopped them from doing it to somebody else. If they get away with it, they're more than likely going to do it again. But these people are like we don't need cops because they don't stop it.
Speaker 2:But if I do stop it before it happens, then I get told I violated the rights and I can't read the future, which I can't. I cannot do it. You're right, I cannot do it Now. I can catch a burglar in the act before he steals your stuff. Now, I can't save your doorframe that he knocked in, but if I get called there and I catch them there, hey, I at least just saved as much as I could. But yes, you're right, I cannot arrest a burglar. That I know is a normal dude that breaks into places. I can even know he broke into the places, but until I have enough evidence I can't arrest them. Now I will do my damnedest to try to get them, but I can't arrest them off of what I feel. You can't do it. You can't do that in this job. So it just kills me the backlash that law enforcement gets.
Speaker 2:If I'm proactive and I try to get them, then I'm violating people's rights. If I wait till, then people get upset because there's a victim. There is and it sucks. I hate nothing more than having to talk to rape victims. It's not because I don't like them, it's because I know what they had to deal with and I'm having to ask them questions that they don't want to answer and they shouldn't have to answer, but they have to. There's so many times rapists get away because of embarrassment from the victim. It's a sad, sad cycle, but I don't know it's crazy.
Speaker 2:I know I've been rambling. This is legit. I was not really playing on doing a long podcast and it's really not that long it's 40 minutes. But this has all been just on the cuff rambling and I don't know why people would want to listen to me ramble. I don't even like listening to me, ramble, but I appreciate you guys so much.
Speaker 2:You have no idea I'm still working on growing this, guys, and I'm so sorry I keep saying that, but I have been nonstop with stuff. I have been just nonstop and I'm trying to get everything together. But it's just hard to get everything together and work and family issues. But it'll get better, it will. The babies are getting older so they're getting more independent. Where I'm able to do things, I'm able to take care of things and actually get through stuff. Baby girls should get much more independent. It's awesome. It'll get better. I beg you to bear with me. I'm still trying to get other guests on, but then it's like a time that I have to work with other guests with what time they can do it, what time I can do it.
Speaker 2:My schedules are very with this new detective job it's very wishy-washy. I don't know if I'm going to get called out. I don't know when I can plan this or plan that, but I'm figuring it out. We'll get through it. Things are growing. I'm starting to make comedy videos again. I'm finding the time to really start getting into doing stuff and doing social media again. I didn't take a break per se, but I did take a break. I did a lot of lives and then, after getting screwed over the four year dude, the lives kind of took on the back burner. So I'm really focusing on bringing everything back being there for everybody, making people smile, making people laugh, which internally helps me. I've had some pretty rough cases recently and making people laugh and smile is really what helps me get through it.
Speaker 2:Much loved everybody. Thank you for all the support on Patreon. Thank you for all the support everywhere. I couldn't do this all y'all and I mean I could again. I'd just be talking to nobody, which kind of feels like what I do on these. But I get messages that people say, hey, I love the podcast. I'm like, hey, that's awesome, I appreciate that. So much love everybody. Please stay safe out there. Be a good human being. Be good to people. Treat people the way you want to be treated. This world is going in the hell in a hand basket.
