a sorry for I had a colonoscary about five years ago. And every
time the nurses says in recovery,there and the little nurses walk by,
and my wife's and there women everytime they walk by, they just go
to giggling and shaking their head.And finally my wife says, what what
(01:11):
is what is all this? Everytime you walk by? She goes,
and one of the nurses goes,that's the funniest man. I've ever been.
He is the funniest guy we've everhad in here. You must be
interested around your house. And mywife said, please tell me didn't say
anything inappropriate, and they go,no, he didn't say anything inappropriate.
He's just funny. I had toget shots in my back L four L
(01:37):
five disc stuff, just you know, sciatica pain. I went to the
pay man and they say, youwant to go to pay management. I'm
like, no, I don't wantto do that, you know. Uh,
doctor Miller kept me going for along time and still does a lot
of good for me. But everynow and then you just got to go
get you know, there's stuff that'sgot to be done. And no surgery.
(01:57):
It was just pay management and saidwe're gonna we're gonna give you a
stick this needle in your back andyou're not, who not fun? Not
fun? But uh so I findhumor in uncomfortable situations like we do.
And uh yeah, so when whenthey do you want to be sedated and
(02:20):
like, no, I want toget up a middle walk out here.
We got to roll out a wheelchair. I think I can't buy my way
out, but yeah, I hadthe nursing staff pretty much in stitches the
whole time, and that was It'sbeen a while back now, but it's
just your smart all key. Well, they did, in fact sedate me
and knock me out to do todo that. Now, See, I'm
(02:42):
afraid of what I'd say if anybodyputs me under anything. I apparently woke
up. Apparently I woke up midprocedure and had apparently did a stand up
routine during during the colonoscopy, uh, with with all them in the room,
and uh, I don't know,uh, but they do swalk by
and laugh and my wife's like,oh god, please, you know what
(03:05):
did you say? I don't know. I was, you know, I
don't even remember it. So thereyou go. Well, if you find
the marble in there, I swallowedthe one when I was about eight,
and I had seen it since Ilook for it after I drank that stuff,
and I didn't see it in either. I figured out I gat nothing
else knocked out there that. Yeah, I can see, I can see
(03:27):
is there an echoing there? DidI hear that? Twice? And the
kolonoscopy is not bad, It's reallynot. They knock you out, they
do their thing, they bring youback and you know, you let off
a bunch of gas and it's justkind of it's not bad. What's bad
is the getting ready for the colonoscopy. If you ain't never had that done.
They give you something of this stuffthat that cleans out your system,
(03:52):
and it's it is not a gentleit's not a gentle process. It is
a violent process of all app Butanyway, uh, it's it's bad.
I mean, you know it's anyway, you need to have that done.
Age should be doing it every yearor so, and well I don't.
(04:13):
If everything's all right, they tellyou you can come back in five years.
So I'm right about that. I'mabout that point where I'm finna have
to go back and get it doneagain. But you need to have it
done, and because colon cancer isreal, and it is, but I
was I remember a football physical wherea fellow fil at my young age,
he felt like the necessary he hadto use a rubber glove and feel around,
and I hadn't entertained that idea,since it's just you need to you
(04:38):
need to go get you need togo get it done. Th real,
So yeah, I know I knewanyway, but I go down swinging cobo
what you all to die of?Well, he wouldn't go get tested at
least, he yelled out to thevery end. Yeah, I know how
important it is. It's almost likewomen getting breast breast checks and stuff that's
(04:59):
very, very important. But youknow, it's as my my wife has
a phrase for it, I goget my soul and so squeezed and I'm
like, yeah, so what youlike in beer? You have to go
get her squeak. I don't wantto say it on the radio because mixed
company, although we don't I don'tknow I started that sentence. I'm quite
(05:23):
sure where it was going to end. Yeah, you never truly know what
Charlie is where that's gonna go,you know. Yeah, yeah, anyway,
so we miss you, Fred.Uh, good little power to you.
That's uh. I can't wait tohear how that went. Oh yeah,
it's gonna be you know, Fred'sprobably you know, probably having a
(05:44):
good time with it. That's justpart of part of one of the things
you know, as men, youknow, speaking that my son swimming today.
Cjay's over there. I could hearthis summer school's out obviously, and
I'm like, hey, you wantto go with me today? And He
looked at me like, yeah,right, I'm not leaving these video games
and all this stuff here at thehouse. So I go, hey,
we got a new uh we gotthat new machine. It projects up on
(06:05):
a wall. It's got all theseall these scenarios and shooting games and stuff
in there. And I said,you know, I got to go over
since we recorded radio show today,we're gonna I'm gonna go over there and
start looking at scenarios because I'm goingthrough the scenarios. You and Matt went
over and looked at some too,And I'm going through the law enforcement scenarios,
trying to get pick out the goodones for certain to teach certain things
(06:30):
that matter and narrowing it down toa small pool and then maybe we'll take
a look at those and nearrow itdown from there to teach specific things.
And I said, but there's somegames in there, and and there's some
shooting drills and some stuff like that. I said, Uh, while I'm
doing radio, so you can comeover. And so I went out here
and told my say, hey,man, you turn that stuff. I
(06:51):
want to give that CJ. Hill. What he doesn't understand is he'll be
working on his shooting skills with ahandgun. But we had a long talk
on the way here about what itmeans to be men and leaders in the
family and our community and everything.And we've had these conversations before, and
maybe one day he'll hear the showand he'll go back. And I remember
(07:12):
having that conversation with Daddy, andI talked to him about how much it
means, you know, because I'vegot three daughters and a son, and
I as do you, you know, and so that son is no.
I love my daughter's more than lifeitself, don't you know. I'm not
discounting them at all. And theyhave leadership roles and places in the family
(07:35):
and the community. But as analpha male, as a patriarch of my
family, as a strong, toxicallymasculine man, it is our job to
provide a leadership role and to providesafety and security for our family and direction
and all that stuff. And Ihad had that conversation with him again this
(07:57):
morning and talked about how important itis to the family. That I said,
you know, if you want togo off and do something in the
world and move away, that's fine, but you're going to have to maintain
a presence here. At home becausewe have land and we have belongings,
and we have the family, andthis is where our family's at. I
said, seeh, you know,whatever you want to do in life,
you're twelve thirteen, you'll be You'vegot you can change your mind twelve times
(08:20):
swing now and then, but youare going to have some responsibility, and
you know, so it starts timefor you to start stepping up being more
involved in you know now that we'regetting more into the farm and stuff on
tractors and we're going to start fencingsome stuff in this this fall. And
I said, you know, it'stime for you to start that. Time
(08:45):
on the video game as an adultis earned. You have to work and
then find that time to go escape. And you can't have a successful relationship
with while you do stay on avideo game. I said, but you
know, so you've got to learnto start meeting that. That's fine,
but that's unproduc said nine. Thetime you're on a machine, you're not
being productive in any way, shape, form, or fashion at this point,
and so now it's time to startlearning to be a man. You
(09:09):
know, he's at that age tofight the bully, not be the bully.
To be cognizant of what he hasin the world and look at his
friends and maintain relationships and learn howto navigate those relationships so that you know
you are the best friend that youcan be, so that you are the
best man that you can be.And that tho's you know what it means
(09:30):
to sacrifice and and and you know, consider other people's feelings and at the
same time be strong. And youknow, I'm still working on that.
That's a difficult balance. I thinkthis an ever evolving process. There's probably
something in the Bible about that.Is that sure is? Yeah, I'm
sure there is. But anyway,it's like we'll be right now. Have
(09:58):
you I been diagnosed with a herniateddisc or arthritis in your back or neck?

druglest and non surgical solution waiting foryou. Called doctor Joseph Miller at eight

And we're back speaking of being patriarchsand men and our family. JD.
You got a pascile full of themat your house and you've got one young
and that is all up in thepickup trucks and stuff. And I pulled
it, We're just talking about,pulled in the parking lot and I didn't
see your truck. And I'm goingI'm running behind and Jad's not here,
(11:13):
and but somebody parked in the spot. That's a cool truck right there,
I said, Man, that lookshey, that's that truck Jad. He
bought for his young and it's gottires and rims the city of tallahasse a
utility truck. That's all all trickedout. Now, well you bought your
truck, You're you're f two fiftyand you didn't do anything to it to
put a bed cover on it.And then you go and buy this truck
(11:37):
for her, and then you're you'reputting uh rims and tires and all this
stuff. Right, you put astereo in there and set harder place of
stock platform. What's left to doto my truck? But my truck I
drive there. It's you know,I do stuff nobody notices. Now I
(11:58):
put fuel in it and drive itand makes me happy. But that old
thing was, you know, itwas an old city of Tallahassee Utility two
thousand and nine f one fifty XLso no frills, It has rolled down
manual crank windows, and I justthink it's cool. That's what she likes.
Yeah, that child has uh andshe's just as she's just as girly
(12:22):
and freely and all that stuff.But for some reason she has liked pickup
trucks. And I think it oneday when she was a little bitty thing,
we rowed by the boat land anddown on Bull Heavy Road and there
was a there was a guy downthere that had just I guess he was
just sight seeing or whatever, andhe was in an old Ford f F
(12:43):
one hundred probably from the mid sixties, you know, kind of that streamline
looking whatever. And she was alittle bitty thing and we got out to
walk out on the dock and shesays, Daddy, what kind of truck
is that. I said, that'smaybe that's an old F one hundred and
forward and she goes, I likethat, I want one of those when
(13:03):
I'm when I get old enough todrive, I don't want a truck.
And that's stuck with her for herentire life. She had pictures in her
room of old pickup trucks. Youknow, I don't know why, but
that's just she just always has lightpickup trucks. And I was I really
wanted to go and you know nowthat she's getting ready to start driving here
in a few months, and Ikind of wanted to do the classic truck
(13:26):
thing, but I really wanted allthe safety features, uh, you know,
airbags and disc brakes and power steeringand all that stuff that that you
know that you either have to AndI went to looking at resto mod and
something. Holy cow, you talkabout having some serious money tied up in
a in a vehicle. You startputting those modern modern things on an old
(13:48):
on old truck and you, uh, you're gonna have spent a pile of
money time. It's all said andnone. But we got a good deal
on this and it's got all thatstuff, and she really likes it.
So that's that's really all that matters. But she, uh, you know,
she still say if I if Iever come into a windfall of money,
I'm going to go back and buyme like a seventy or seventy two
Chevrolet, like my first truck.I want one, but I don't want
(14:11):
to restore one. I want tobuy one that's already restored. Yeah,
it's going to be expensive, Yeah, it's that's I guarantee if if I'm
the same way, I would havea sixty eight or sixty nine step side
Chevrolet short bed truck with all thewater and stuff on it, the gas
slashing behind the seat there. Yeahthis smart. You get one, But
I want air conditioning, then Iwant here and in disc brakes, and
(14:35):
uh, you know, I'm withyou, But you're talking about a whole
lot of money to get all andit's possible. It's just as you find
somebody like I did with my jeepwhere they put a ton of money in
it and then decide that they don'treally need it anymore, so they uh,
they sell it, yeah for whatyou know, what they can sell
it for, not what they gotin it. As I took a huge
(14:56):
hit on my on my old TJTor else to whatever. That jeep was
one of the squareheadlights. When Igot rid of the jeep, I just
totally I just totally forgot all thejeep stuff. I said, I'm out
of the jeep world now. ButI built it. Took me several tries.
I finally built the one I wanted, with everything in it that I
wanted, all the modifications, thelocking rear ens, the disc brakes all
(15:20):
the way around, the V eight, with the the Edelbrock intake and the
aftermarket fuel injection and everything. Imean, you name it. It had
it and it was something. Andthen I moved back to Marion. It
sat under the shed for a yearand a half and didn't move, and
I'm like, I'm gonna go inout there and crank it up and keep
the rats from you and the wires, and I'm like, then, let
me just sell this thing. Andthen when I sold it, who that
(15:43):
hurt hurt my feelings, but youknow, so I won't do that again.
Well, it's the same thing inthe gun world as you know when
you buy Let me see this.All the time people buy a gun,
it's a plane, plane, jaine, something other, and then they go
and get it, get it,get a fancy paint job on it,
and they add this to it,and they add that to it, and
they modify this, and they addthat, and they whatever, and it
(16:08):
becomes so customized that only they wouldwant it. It's so individual individualized them.
And then they get tired of itbecause they had fun doing all those
things to it. And I getthat they enjoyed making all these changes and
what all can we do this?And then they bring it up here and
go, I want to sell this. I want I want two thousand dollars
for it. I'm like, well, that's a five hundred dollars block,
(16:30):
so good luck getting two thousand dollarsfor it. What do you mean I
spent all this money on there?I said, yeah, for you and
your taste. And you're same witha hot rod car. You know,
my taste in vehicles is not yourtaste in vehicles, and it's it's hard
to get your money back out ofSo I tell people, I said,
you know, you can do allthat stuff, but plan on keeping it.
If you're gonna do all that stuffto gun, we will help you
(16:52):
make that happen, but plan onkeeping it because you're never going to get
your money back out of it.When you do those those mods, toy
or a boat boat value a boatand you can wire lights and do this
and do all this rednecked stuff thatit's just exactly what you want. And
then by the time you get tiredof it, you know, it's starting
to show its age a little bit, and that ain't worth nothing. I
mean, I saw my boat acouple of weeks ago and and I had
(17:15):
wired from this. Well the ledlights work, You're gonna want to redo
the wiring, you know. Andthen I had a boat. I had
a duck blind on this thing.It's hanging in a tree. It brief
from now. We don't need,you know, all the time and different.
But I did boats tend to it'ssimple boats. What I've seen simple
boats just a John boat with amotor, outboard motor, John boat,
(17:36):
Lumingham John boat hold their value prettydog one good. I mean absolutely now
fancy boats, different story, youknow, the more complicated they are.
You know, that's like same withvehicles. It's cars in the same way.
To take a really high end ofhigh end manufacture Mercedes, BMW,
(17:56):
Maserati, Porsche, whatever else.You talk about taking a first year hit
hit on the value. When youdrive those things off the lot, you're
you know, they'll they'll get toa point where they don't drop a lot
more, but they're gonna they takea huge hip. There's a Porsche on
the side of the road up therebetween the Dollar General and a tailand range
of Dothan sitting on the side ofthe road and the grass next to a
(18:18):
cow field. I think I mightbe able to afford that one. I
don't know what they got the priceon it, but uh it's black,
and we're like, I probably gota red interior because that seems like it
would be the thing to do.And it's just sitting there on the side
of the road. And I wentback there and looked at it and I
went, yeah, probably swing that, but uh, I don't think I
could fit in it. It's oneone of those I don't know, a
(18:38):
magn you know what a model itis the PI had a Ferrari bottle.
Okay, I had a Porsche onetime, a nine a nineteen seventy five
nine fourteen Porsche, which is aglorified Voltswagon. It had a one point
eight liter four cylinder air cool Volkswagenmotor in it. And you talk about
(18:59):
six foot three of me getting intothat little two seater car, you know,
I had to take it was ahard top convertible. Well, I
had to take the top off thisbecause oh yeah, the top of my
head was above the above the windshieland uh and it was you know,
it was constantly. I think I'dget out there and it wood and crank,
you know, turn the key overand it'd go to ticket. I'd
(19:22):
go out there with a little witha wrench and start tapping on things in
the in the back of the motorback there had an electric fuel pump on
it. I had to go tapon that fuel pump and uh, there
it goes, you know. Butit was fun. It was a lot
of fun. I had to rollstarted more than I more than I cranked
it with a battery. Hey man, give me a punish. There you
go. But looking at thettle Porschemiles. I don't know if it's like
(19:47):
a it's got a real pointage frontend. Man, I don't know,
I don't know. Probably a ninetwenty four, nine forty four. I
think it was a Porsche that wasone one of those sports cars. But
you know, it's it's it's it'sone of those high dollar ones that you
know, can't that that people can'tget and can't afford to fix because when
they break, they're hold my gus. But I don't know, I mean,
it's it's cool. Thing about minewas it was mostly a Voltswagon.
(20:10):
It was essentially a Carmen Gia Voltswagenwith a with a fancier looking body on
it. I was, yeah,I mean, I don't I don't know.
I'm my I dry pickup trucks andprises. I don't know. I
don't want a few people around.Actually puts a lift kit on a press.
I've got three lifted Priuses now inTalent Security that are marked striped up
(20:37):
on patrol and we run Nissan Frontiersand we put lift kits on those and
bigger tires on them so they canget where they need to be. Because
because a Nissan Frontier off the offthe factory floor. Toyotas have more of
a leveled appearance. You know,the front ends higher than the front end
of the area and are about thesame height with a Nissan Frontier. Whether
(20:59):
you can't tell the two wheel drivesfrom the four wheel drives off the lot
unless there's some of the after theyou know, off road vehicles. And
so the first thing I do withthem, including the new ones we bought,
is we put a two and ahalf inch level kit on the front
with a one inch left on theback, so you're getting it's basically a
two and a half inch left,but it levels it. It gets us
up off the ground. And nowwhen I pull up, I don't run
(21:22):
over. I don't have people knockingthe spoiler out from under it when they
hit the parking curve or something likethat. It actually levels, it picks
it up. And they're not terriblyexpensive. So even my Kia Sportage Hybrid
that I drive Paul, the oneI'm driving today, you know, it's
it gets really good mileage. Whatkind of as balls does you get?
It's rated at like thirty eight thirtynine miles at a gallon The way I
(21:45):
drive, I get, I getlow thirties on it. Twelve but I
put a but I put but youknow it stays in the lane. I
mean, I'm driving enough two fiftyor I'm driving that thing, and I
try to keep my mileage down onmy vehicle. So that thing, I
put a two inch lift kit onit. Feel up there to Camelot the
mode. We've got a two inchlift cut put on it. It needs
bigger tires. Now, Uh inthe world, what on earth got you
(22:11):
was getting directions to I'm getting directionsto hear, but you made it.
The computer decided to tell it finally, just talking about hey man, you've
been sitting up here to read alot too long. But uh, but
no, that's a but Now Idon't have to sit down in it.
I can just sit in it andget out of it. But I'm gonna
put a I'm gonna put some tireson it about an inch higher. Pick
(22:33):
it up one more inch and it'dbe And it's very much like a my
my daughter's got a towy or fourrunner. It's on. When I put
the tires on, every the samesize as the four run. It's just
go and get that miles'll be back. Is your back killing you from sitting

Apalachicola River and Tallahassee for a longtime, And you know I was.
I was a little bit older bythe time they finally finished. It was
one of the last stretches of it. Ten that they completed the bridge there.
(26:32):
So the bridge that I go betweenmy house and Marianna. Now they've
they've rebuilt it, but it wasbuilt. The date on it was nineteen
seventy six. I was ten yearsold, okay, And we had moved
that's the same year. Within ayear or so, we were moving out
of town, moving down into DryCreek, Michael Herman's house down there because
(26:53):
our our meat business in town.The roof literally fell in and the uh
as I recall it, and Imay be wrong, Mama might can correct
me on this, but the freezerwas the roof above the freezer was leaking
water and it was dripping onto theceiling of the insulated ceiling in the actual
(27:14):
freezer and it was freezing and it'sthis huge block of ice up there,
and eventually the weight got to betoo much and it just collapsed into the
freezer and that was the straw thatbroke the camel's back. That just put
Daddy out of business. And youknow, nowadays you'd have insurance and cover
art. Back then, you justmeet inspectors, came in, says,
you got it. You can't dothis, can't do that. And so
(27:37):
they built Tra Creek smoke House backwhere we used to have a smoke house
before. And Daddy had moved totown and built its business and went back
down on the popping, but wehad them. There was a Daddy went
through bankruptcy and everything, and theygave up the house and moved down there
and it was the uh So.But we would drive back and forth down
there, and Daddy was getting intofarming and stuff at the same time.
(27:59):
And Daddy had this old Dodge pickuptruck, the old four wheel drive with
the automatic on the column and andhad that big old motor in it.
I mean I drove that thing.We'd go up to the dump up on
Pittman Hill Road. I think itwas, and he'd ship me out there
at the old County dump. Letme shoot a shotgun for the first time.
This's all this is happening about thesame time. I remember falling on
(28:22):
my butt when it happened, butit was yeah. But going up we
would go. While they were buildingthat bridge. We had to drive down
to drive over all the lanes oftraffic on the old dirt interstate while they
were building. I still remember that. We'll be back. Are you looking

(29:26):
him to get it right. Findhim at Teespark Coonstruction dot com or call
him at eight five O seven sixsix thirteen for thinking old drugs. Let's
change gears here and the downship alittle bit. So this morning, Friday
(29:47):
morning, yesterday morning that we're on, the Supreme Court made a I wouldn't
call it a landmark decision, butthey did make a decision on some gun
right stuff and it was a eightto one decision, pretty overwhelming. It
wasn't unexpected. Uh. It hasto do with gun rights. And what
it said was that your second momentrights are not absolute. If you are
(30:12):
if a court has determined that youare an immediate threat to someone, that
they can temporarily take your Second Amendmentrights. They can seize your firearms,
and like a domestic balance injunction ora domestic case where a court has determined
yeah, they're a court has determinedwhich. So you know, and this
(30:33):
I think this pertains or will pertainto domestic balance injunctions or or those types
of things where some yeah, wheresomebody goes in it's it if then you
know, we don't always like seeingthis stuff in the Second Amendment world because
it has further wrenching implications and wehave to be concerned about more states going
(30:56):
deeper into Okay, well, theysaid, we can infringe on people's rights
if we think they're a danger.But then again, who gets to decide
whether or not? Right, Yeah, that's the issue. Who gets to
make that decision? They say,Well a court? Yeah, so that
so our judges are completely and totallyimpartial, right, yeah, I mean
we saw that in the New Yorkcase against Trump. Completely impartial. So
(31:21):
uh so, so what happens isand now, if if you are the
victim of and listen, I'm youknow, if you are the type of
person that beats your spouse, Idon't I don't want you to have a
gun, right. I don't wantyou to have a gun. I mean,
you don't need a gun if you'rewilling to do physical harm to your
(31:41):
supposedly someone you love more than anybodyelse in the world. If you're willing
to do to hurt them, youdon't need weapons to do that with.
Now, it's something there needs tobe a remedy at some point in your
life, somewhere down the road thatyou know you've changed, you know you
can prove you've changed, and sothe and I'm not looking at red flag
laws as much. I'm looking atjust domestic violence injunctions and things like that.
(32:02):
I mean, I so so ifyou got that. And we also
know that people will get arrested fordomestic violence when they're not necessarily there it
wasn't necessarily and we know that thatjudges will sign off on domestic violence injunctions
with little to no evidence of saiddomestic violence just because somebody said so,
(32:23):
just because one half follow the injunctionand I don't remember, I don't know
what it is now because I haven'tbeen involved in this recently, but traditionally
in our law enforcement careers, toget a domestic violence injunctions or an injunction
against repeat violence is I think whatthey're technically called because it it can be.
It doesn't have to be domestic,but it should be so be roommates,
(32:45):
can be a number of different things. You have to have You have
to be able to swear and showthat there was an instance of violence and
in the last six months, andthis is not the only one. There
has to be a couple of instances. And so you would go down and
you go to the clerk of thecourt and you fill out an affidavid and
(33:07):
you swear that this is the case, and you submit that to the court.
And then if they judge grants atemporary injunction, they will give that
a Shriff's office shaffs office will goserve that injunction on said person and they
have they have to surrender their firearmsto either a family member, friend,
or they have to give them backto give them to the shriffs office.
(33:27):
Tournaments share. Sofice hates it whenthey do these things because they're they judge,
we're seizing all these firearms and theymight be a room full and they
go to the Sherif's office suit sheriffoffice andn't have a room for store all
these things traditionally, so they're tryingto get them to a family member.
It doesn't get guns from people.It gets the guns you're willing to tell
them about from people. So Idon't know how much good it really does.
(33:49):
And injunction is just a piece ofpaper, but a lot of times
there are other things in there,like, hey, you can't have the
kids until you know. There's alot of things. There's a lot of
reasons that an adjunction is good,and there's is definitely a place for those
things, and they are they areuseful, but it's still a piece of
paper, and you're still relying onthat person to tell you do you have
any guns in the house? No, I don't have any. Okay,
(34:12):
she says, you have guns,I don't have any Okay. Well,
I guess we got to trust you. I mean, that's where it goes.
It doesn't give you the ability togo into the house and search the
house and do things like that.Technically, if you come in here to
buy a gun and you've got athree day wait, and you buy a
gun from us or any gun store, and you don't come back for two
(34:36):
weeks, you could have committed.You pass your background check, we call
you a man. You pass backgroundcheck, come get your gun, robbing
banks every day. You got upto thirty days to come pick it up
from us, and we don't haveto do it back, and don't we
don't do and don't have to donot allowed to do another background check on
you in that thirty day window.And if you come back and pick it
up three weeks later, you couldhave had an injunction served against you.
(34:57):
We have no way of knowing that. I mean, so there's a there's
all kinds of loopholes in these things. And while I'm not a big fan
of people, you know, givingit to I mean, somebody has to
make you a decision. And it'sunfortunate in this country that we have judges
that will go, hey, theysaid this, Now that's a temporary injunction.
You get a temporary injunction. Andnow we're talking about in Florida.
(35:19):
I'm sure there's something somewhere in Alabama, in Georgia. But that temporary injunction
is only good for so many days, so it's typically within a two to
three week period. You then haveto go back before judge for an injunction
hearing, and then the respondee andboth the person petitioning for it and the
person that's responding to it are supposedto be there, and then the judge
decides whether or not that's going tobe permanent or not, or may make
(35:44):
it a year, may make itpermanent. And you can always petition down
the road to get that thing removed, to go hire an attorney and do
that. But the fact is isif they make that thing permanent, you're
not buying any guns. You can'tpossess firearms. And the thing is is,
so you had you had a badexperience, and Lord knows, and
I hate to say this, butthere are people lie. People lie,
(36:07):
they're vindictive people that lie and theysay this happened and there's no proof,
and the judge says, okay,well you can't have guns, and you
just took away. That's the thingthat yeah, that's the thing that has
always really bothered me about the wholeinjunction thing, is that somebody can go
in there and just absolutely lie,or both parties can go in there and
(36:27):
absolutely lie. And you know,if something that happened in the privacy of
your home, that there are nowitnesses to that judge is basically going to
sit there and look in their faceand listen to their story and may potentially
make a decision that takes the rightsaway from one one of the parties simply
based on the expression on their faceor what they said. Because if Paul
(36:52):
says, yeah, JD stole fivehundred dollars from me, we were sitting
at his house and he stole fivehundred dollars from me. My only defense
against that is no, I didn'tyou know. So unless there was somebody
else there witnessing and whatever it is, it's just your word against mine.
And that's a lot of times whatthese injunction hearings turned out to be is
(37:13):
one person's word against the other withno corroborative evidence. And you know,
the judges just got it. Thejudges in a bad position. They got
to make a decision. But wehave daughters, and we are in favor
of domestic violence laws, and weyou know what I've seen. It's not
out of men. I mean,it's happened ways. We've arrested both sides,
(37:35):
and people don't get that sometimes youshould. Just because you called doesn't
mean you're the victim. You know, you get there and you get looking
at the evidence and sometimes people tellthe story and you're sitting Okay, So
so he hits you, Yes hedid. He shoved me down, and
he did this and blah blah blahblah blah blah blah. Okay, why
did do that? Well, hecheated on me, and I slapped him
upside the head and then he didwhat now? Yeah, well, ma'am,
(37:59):
I worked one one night, remainsilent. I worked one of those
one night where it was a hehe beat me up. He punched me
in the face and this, thatand the other, and I'm like,
well, what caused all that?Well? I stuck. I had a
hot iron and he made me mad, and I stuck the iron and I
look over there at the guy andhe's got the perfect imprint of a hot
iron, you know, the bigtriangle on his arm there, and he's
(38:20):
sitting over there. He goes,yeah, I hit her because she's stuck
that hot iron to me. AndI'm like, ma'am, you're gonna have
to come with me. What hehit me? Yeah, after you stuck
a hot iron to him, youstarted that one. Sorry, he called
nine one one and you you wantto report a violent crime, you need
to make sure you aren't the personwho initiated that, because you may be
(38:45):
just calling to turn yourself in.And don't think just because you're the woman
that that's not gonna happen. Thelaw says primary aggressor, yeah, and
law enforcement officers are required to makean arrest if unless they can justify not
doing it, and they have tobe able to explain why somebody didn't go
to jail. I mean, whenwe were rookies, you know, you'd
say, hey, man, youjust go stay with your brother and you
(39:05):
stay here, and y'all split upfor the night, and that was fine.
And then they started making a lawstronger to where you had to incarcerate
somebody if the primary aggressor can bedetermined, yes, there shall be exactly
this verbatim right there. So butSupreme Court said, all that is reasonable
and it's not an unreasonable infringement onyour right. So, like every other
(39:28):
right, there are motivations. We'llbe right back. Some battles are worth
fighting. They build character and teachimportant lessons. Other times, the more
we ressest, the longer we staystuck. When a simple change would change
everything. Is your bank holding youback? Try my bank, Prime Meridian
(39:53):
Bank. Changing is easy. We'llshow you how Prime Meridian Bank, tallahassee

nine seven seventy five point fifty.It's a driving I'm so hug lining and
(40:40):
we're back so in another Supreme Courtsituation, I'm on the break. JD
brought up by the way, Yeah, and we we don't think we talked
about it on the radio, butwe're gonna pretend we didn't talk about on
the radio and talking about the itis very important because there's some there's there's
a Supreme Court decision. It relatesto bump stocks. JD. Go ahead.
(41:02):
Yeah. So during the Trump administration, following the following the Las Vegas
Jason Aldan concert shooting thing where theguy was shooting out the shooting out of
the windows at Mandalay and killed allthe people there at the concert, which
we've been there, which we've beenthere. They saw the broke windows hadn't
(41:23):
been replaced yet. But uh,anyway, so following that atrocity there,
uh, during the Trump administration therewas a ban. He signed an executive
order banning bump stocks made them illegalin all fifty states by federal I hate
to call it law, but itwasn't a law. So there was an
(41:44):
executive decision and a rule passed bythe ATF that said bump stocks are now
machine guns and you can't have one. Florida also passed a state law that
mirrored that. When Rick Scott wasthe governor, passed the state law that
said doesn't just say bump stocks,it says in Florida, anything that increases
(42:05):
or assist you in increasing the rateof fire of a firem, which is
binary triggers, force reset triggers,bump stocks, any of those things that
can help you shoot a gun fasterbeyond what you're pulling the trigger with your
finger can do are also illegal.They're illegal by Florida law. Also,
(42:29):
well, the Supreme Court came outwith the ruling and it's basically the same
thing we've been saying on this showsince all of this stuff started happening,
was the ATF or the executive branchof the government cannot make laws. They
can interpret laws and they enforce laws, but they can't make laws. And
(42:51):
that's kind of the way our governmenthas been operating on a lot of different
fronts for a very long time.That it's not just the ATF, it's
the EPA, it's the you know, Department of Justice, and all of
these other things that they're just kindof arbitrarily coming up with these can't do
these can't do this thing rule andit doesn't have the force of law,
(43:14):
and it's they don't have the rightto do that. And Supreme Court basically
came out and said, yeah,you didn't have the authority to change your
thinking on this the law is veryclearly define what a machine gun is.
A bump stock does not make ita machine gun. They overturn the ruling,
which also affects the pistol brace rulingto a great degree. I don't
(43:36):
the pistol brace ruling has been vacated. So pistol braces are legal. Also,
they're legal in Florida. They arelegal in Florida. So it's perfectly
legal to have a pistol brace,a pistol with a brace on it right
now, anywhere anywhere, well,unless there's a specific state law state law
that which is the problem is isin Florida that that fell in the offense
(43:57):
of having a bump stock or somethingon your trigger is still in place still
no matter. So, even thoughnational races are legal, pistol braces are
legal in Florida, bump stocks arenot legal in Florida. Correct, So
Georgia, Georgia, and Alabama youcan have them. But Florida, being
(44:20):
one of the more right wing gunfriendly states in this nation, one of
the most gun friendly states in thisnation, we have a law on the
books that is absolutely ridiculous. Thebump stock thing, I think was all
part of the Marjorie Stoneman, DouglasAct, and all of the gun laws
that were put in place when allof these bad things happened at a really
fairly close together time frame. Soif you go, if you go toe
(44:45):
to toe against a guy who hasa let's let's say a modern sporting rifle.
They've got an AR fifteen, andhe's one hundred yards away from you
and you and you are similarly armed, and he has a semi automatic AR
fifteen, or he has a bumpstock on an AR fifteen. Which one
would you rather him have? I'drather him have the bump stock, because
(45:07):
I don't I if he's my opponent, he's They're very difficult to control and
shoot accurately at any distance beyond almostimpossible fifteen yards, yeah, ad anything
beyond short quarters close quarter stuff.So in the thing, well, it
makes them more dangerous if you can, if you can, if you can
put your finger on the table rightnow and go tap that fast, you
(45:31):
can shoot that fast. If youcan tap tap tap tap tap tap tap
on, you can shoot that fasttoo, and you can shoot more accurately
at a higher rate. I thinkby physically manipulating the trigger versus having a
bump stock. I shot a bumpstock and that's awkward and I don't like
it. Yeah, So Jerry Mitchlick, he's a famous competition shooter, actually
(45:51):
ran that race against a guy witha bump stock. It was proficient.
I was very proficient with the bumpstock. And this was a number of
shots and hits. So accuracy andspeed, speed, accuracy drills bump stock
versus Jerry Mitchllick, and Jerry Mitchllicksmoked. You know, So it needs
an accomplished shooter, but it's it'shumanly possible to do what a bump stock
(46:14):
does. You don't need a bumpstock to shoot bump fire. I mean
you can just you can hang yourthumb and a feel. There's ways to
do this stuff, put it inyour belt, looping, and we love
it. As a gun range owners, we love it. You buy amos
from us and go down there aslong as you shooting waste, as long
as you're shooting the bump stock withinfifteen yards of the burm so you don't
shoot over it or around it andhit our target frames. Because I saw
(46:35):
our limitations on shooting rapid fire isfifteen yards. And then for preservation of
our facilities and the huge waste ofammunition. You blow all that, you
blow all them O you want lovewhen I get down there. Look,
every time you pull a trigger,money money money, Yeah, absolutely do.
It's a keep it coming. Souh So I hate that and I
(46:59):
don't don't want a bump stock.I'm not a fan of bump stocks,
but that doesn't mean that, youknow, I don't support that. I
just think that it was an unnecessaryinfringement. And I hate that Florida has
a law on the books, andI think it ought to be readdressed.
The next revision of that Act,they need to take that out of there
because it is not It does notpresent a danger. And there are bump
(47:19):
stocks all over the state that peoplehave just tucked away somewhere, and you've
made feelings of them for no reason, when when the ATF has said we
can't or the Supreme Court said theATF can't do anything about it. Nationally,
they're not They're not going to passany gun laws at a federal level.
They're going to limit stuff like that. There's no appetite for it,
no support for it. It's justnot going to happen. The Democrats couldn't
(47:42):
even if they had the House tosend it in the White House, they
couldn't drum up enough support to dothat. So that's all that's gone.
And so I applaud all these decisionsand they're good for us. I just
wish in Florida we could fix thatone, because that's ridiculous. Yeah,
you know who were we We're nothing, We're nobody. So this segment four
(48:04):
and Paul tires here and we wantto we can talk about some fishing.
But this this week it has beena strong east wind. I'm sure you'll
notice, and it has been slow. But I think, thank God when
the show's when this air and thisSaturday, and the wind's not supposed to
be as much today, and butman, it's been slow. You've remember
that old saying Jada and that ofease fishing. At least that's right,
(48:25):
that's right, man, I tellyou what. I think we're gonna get
a little bit out of the westcome on Sunday. So so they might
be biting, because they sure havebeen biting this week. That's the truth.
I've been seeing some pictures of oldbuddy mine, old Chris Neely that
lives up there on the lake.I grew up with him. He's been
posting some big bass on on onInstagram. He's been catching out of the
on something. Yeah, I don'tknow. I don't know what he's catching
(48:47):
him on. He ain't like you. He's secretive about Yeah, he tries.
He tries to keep it, keepit secret, I know on the
download. But Chris is great,great fishman day. He's really good fishing.
I taught him everything he knows,did you. Yeah, gosh,
I tell you what. That's somethingwe used to fish together when we were
in high school. Tator ship.Yeah, I'm just teasing. He's he
(49:08):
is a great fisherman. I didn'tteach him quite everything. I didn't teach
him everything I know. Let's putthat way, Paul. Yeah, that's
right, that's right, you keptsome of it. I tell you what.
But I really think this weekend isgonna be good, especially we get
to finally get some cloud cover comingin and that that change from that east
wind. But uh, this weekendthere's the bast Federation State Classic. He'll
(49:30):

I hope they do for y'all.Hope you have a hope you have
a good, safe, safe weekend. And ain't gonna be it's gonna be
real hot this week. Yeah,you're looking at not much when on on
today, on Saturday and on Sunday. It looks like we've got a little
(49:50):
bit of cloud cover coming in.But we could use some of that rain.
Yeah, ninety five ninety six,you got a fift chance rain more
or less all next week, startingon thee day. Now, they are
gonna bite next week. I tellyou this. This week, there's a
couple of nights this week going home, and I'm used to seeing this time
of year. I'm used to seeingninety five ninety six, ninety seven on
(50:12):
my dashboard, on my radio orwhatever telling me the outside of temperature.
And I drove home the other dayand I'm like, you know, this
ain't terrible. It was eighty ninedegrees, and I'm like, I'll take
eighty nine degrees this time of year. That's not bad at all. We've
a little bit of cloud covered,a little bit of breeze. It's that
helps for sure. Been pretty comfortablebut yeah, well, I hope y'all
(50:32):
do good in the tournament. Youanything else going on on Lak I tell
you the we've been having some aflys still still actually I haven't had none
this week, but you know that'llrun all the way to September. And
so I'm looking for mister Dell Bessiegave me a got me a fly rod.
Now I caught that first fish onthe fly rods. So I'm going
to be doing some of that nextweek. Good for you. They catch
some of the big old blue gills, yeah, I want to try that.

I've been hearing some guys catching shellcracker and blue gill on to Lake
Talquin. Some guys here Relea thatsaid, they've been doing pretty good,
and it's about time that they havea good mayfly hatch on Lake Talquin too.
That's right. They're usually a littlebit later than ye when they're starting
somewhere. Olders get out there witha glow bug at night and talk about
that we need to go try that, and we do that. So I've
(51:15):
done it, I guarantee you.All right, Well, we'll see y'all
next week, all right,
