Look, Los Angeles. Okay, we'll keep it with the driving theme. And when things don't work out, yeah, out of control teenagers taking over streets across the nation. Now, a lot of these people aren't teenagers, by the way. They're just young adults. From Los Angeles, just a glimpse of what cities are dealing with. And it's not just LA. Right now, city council members in Washington DC are preparing to vote on extending the emergency youth curfew meant to curb these wild events. Oh my god. You're watching outnumbered. I'm Harris Faulk are here with my co-host Emily Kano. Joining us today, Molly Line, Fox News correspondent, Lisa Booth, Fox News political mean riots. And with us for the first time, Captain Barry Butch Wilmore, former NASA astronaut and author of Stuck in Space: As astronauts Hope Through the Unexpected. Mhm. Amazing. Okay, I can't go on with any stories without touching with you. First of all, welcome. In the last few months, police in 11 cities have responded to takeover. Some of which have turned violent. Many of them, they're all violent. Every single one of them is violent. I've seen the videos. They're all violent. Are organized on social media, so they're getting bigger as more people respond. Like this one. Let's take a look. It turned a Wisconsin mall into a mat house. Video show hundreds of masked spring breakers invading stores and starting fights. And at least 13 people were arrested in that one. Law enforcement officials are warning viral videos of these events are breeding copycats now. And police departments say they are overwhelmed as a small gathering can devolve into chaos very quickly. Lisa, what's your thought? That's crazy. I blame Democrats. Full stop. I mean, for decades and years now, they have been leading this breakdown. How do you blame Democrats whenever the Republicans are the ones in power? Why don't the Republicans just go and send people in and get rid of this and put the FBI on figuring out who the main people who are making and organizing this and then put them up on charges for like inciting a riot? Like, how do you blame Democrats? This is the Republicans's fault. Because they again, if you if you have the gun in your hand and you don't pull the trigger, that's your fault. They're not pulling the trigger. Society from all different vantage points from a policy standpoint to the narrative around policing also culturally as well. I mean, you look at the policing angle, all the soft on crime stuff that Democrats have pushed, the elimination of cash bail, abolishing the police, and then you get to culturally government. Do you really think that they can't figure out something to do them? You really think they can't figure out a single thing with welfare incentivizing single family homes punishing marriage as well? You look at the breakdown of God of, you know, mocking God as well, mocking the family unit. And then you look at the narrative around policing. You could go back to Michael Brown, hands up, don't shoot. President Obama pushed that lie. He said it was a breakdown of, you know, the uh policing and, you know, really blamed the police throughout the era. You look at Camala Harris, she went and told Jacob Lake in Wisconsin that she was proud of him. A guy who showed up at a victim's home to revictimize her and then pulled a knife on police officers. Camala Harris also encouraged people to fund the Minnesota bail fund as well and to bail out some of those riers in Minnesota. You start charging everyone as adults for violent crimes, no exceptions for kids. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's the police's fault. Yeah. I I don't know. But Democrats run the inner cities. What? You just send in the feds and you get them? You send the feds to the kid's house. You arrest the kid and then you take him and you put him in a federal prison and you hold them without bail. If the judge says you can't do it, then say come get him. [ __ ] him. That's what you should do. Like obviously. Like I I mean what do you mean for what federal crime? I don't know. Make something up. Johnson said that law enforcement was a sickness. So you can go down all the way down the line and see how they have led to this degragation of society and this breakdown of society. So I blame the Democrats full stop. You got to remember like they charge Trump 34 times for the same thing. Just make some [ __ ] up. You know, my guest last hour, uh, Kelly Simpson was a former US attorney, Emily, and I thought of you when he talked about consequences, and he said, "This needs a Pavlovian response." I like that. The bell with the dog. Uh, if we view this through the lens of these are children, then we need to see that they are victims. And they could They're not victims. What do you mean they're victims? What do you mean they're victims? What do you mean by that? You're [ __ ] crazy, bro. People say I'm crazy. So what about what about what I'm saying is crazy? Let me ask you. I don't want Democrats doing the same thing. Are you're you're not falling into that? Let Let me get this. So what what is this? Like what am I saying? That's crazy. I I I want to understand this. I'm so tired of the tit for tat argument. Yeah, it it it's it's naive. Feds can't arrest you for state crimes. Okay, then just make up a federal crime and arrest him for that. Like there's like 50 [ __ ] there's like a thousand federal crimes that you can commit. Just make something up and go get them. What's the problem with that? Like I I don't know. Do you want me to look this up? So I I just look up right here federal crimes including uh surrounding riots. And so riots main federal anti-law is uh criminalizes traveling interstate or foreign commerce. You could say that foreign commerce is doing it over social media and it's interstate because it's on social media and you're inciting a riot. You just pick them up from that. Literally it's so simple. So it it's it's so easy. I'm on your side, Bo. It's just not wanting Democrats to have that power. Oh my god. They already do, man. They already do this to begin with. Do you really think that the thing that's holding these people back is the fact that it would be hypocritical? Do you really think that that's the way it works? Like what was holding Democrats back from charging Trump for 34 counts of the wrong thing for a felony? What was holding them back for that? Oh, no good. No, no, no, no. I I have no problem with the Insurrection Act. I think they should uh they should do it tomorrow. No, but what I'm saying is that so so you you you even so you even acknowledge that it's possible to do this. Are we going to operate under the assumption that the good guys will always be in power? No. And that's why you need to make sure that it's as close to that as possible. That's my point. So like, yeah, you really think that they're not doing that? Like I I think that you have this naive notion that your enemies will not do things if you don't do those things. Your enemies will do whatever they can to beat you. If you're unwilling to do that, those people will overwhelm you. That's it. And uh you know, I was actually we shouldn't jail the kids. Well, let let me pull this up. Is this person seems like uh Oh, this person seems like just kind of a It's another like The thing is me being crazy about this and then you being afraid of Democrats doing it to you. You're completely buck broken. You're totally buck broken and you're captured inside of an ideological uh trap that you that has been created by enemies in order to prevent you from being able to advocate for your best interests. We shouldn't jail the kids. Why uh why shouldn't we jail the kids? This g be the last person we're going to pull up. Why shouldn't we jail the kids? It's more about legal precedence and uh if they could they would crucify Trump, but Quesaw didn't allow it. They only got mindless changed. Next time they'll have more ammo. Yeah. And next time they try to do it for him, they'll have more ammo, too. And correct, you're still wrong about this. Well, what is it? What am I wrong about? We shouldn't be jailing the kids. Uh, you aren't going far enough. They need an example. Oh, you think we should shoot him? I I I don't want to I don't want to listen to this. It just seems like another [ __ ] Be victims. And when we talk about the violence, the nature of the crimes that they're engaged, it is absolutely horrifying. And if you want to have that party see them for what they will, well then they should understand that there's an epidemic of opportunity and threats to these kids safety. Now, if you want to look at it through the lens of them being adults, it makes it all the more frightening. And that's what I think we should do. enforcement has been totally gutted here. Arrests mean nothing without actual incarceration and consequences that the attorney is demoted family court into some type of summer camp for them. There are no consequences. There's zero accountability and there's zero incentive for those kids to succeed whatsoever. What options have we pro have we provided for them? None in the public school. They have plenty of options. They have plenty of opportunities. And the idea that it's society's fault that a bunch of retards want to go out and do donuts in the middle of an intersection and break into stores is outrageous. The idea that the country is at fault because some animal can't stop stealing from coals is insane. I don't want to hear that. Talked about the millions of dollars that we've shoved toward the unions. They're not being educated. They're not being cared for. They're not being fed. In some instances, we've degraded the family unit. So, they're not going home to God. They're not going home to a stable unit. Perhaps their one family member is out working four jobs to try to put that food on the table. So instead, they're incentivized by social media, by the dopamine hits, and by the apps that I used to steal, too, by the way. Yeah, of course I'd steal. Why wouldn't I? There's nothing that's going to happen to you for it. Duh. People respond to incentives. Why would you not steal something if you know you're going to get away with it? them to be violent and to be viral at the expense of the collateral damage, which is good American citizens losing their lives, their livelihoods, and their property. And we're supposed to just call them kids. Oo. You know what you just tipped into? So, we've been following all these social media trials. Uhhuh. Think about the victims and some of these and and people do get hurt in some of these instances. Think about the argument that they can make like this formed on social media. Are you going to try to call this or block it? And a lot of these people are minors according to my last guest. US attorney. No, this is this is the stupidest argument ever. It has nothing to do with social media. It's the people that are saying it on social media need to be held accountable. Obviously, Simson said most of the carjackings in Washington DC are by 14year-olds. I mean, it's a lot. Your thought? It's just a symptom of the breakdown of the family. I mean, obviously, um, dads, where are you stepping in to train your children? I know my daughters when they were born, as soon as they could understand English, the very first thing everybody knows not to steal a car. Everybody knows don't steal a car. If they're doing it, it's because they want to. I trained them on is that you will not disrespect your mother. That was the number one rule in our home. And it still is. And from that, you grow respect for mankind, for others, and also for society and also for those individuals that are making this nation great. The looting you see taking taking place in these videos. It's just it's just very sad. Break down the family is a big part of this. I I think my thought all points the breakdown of the family, the challenges with policy. Another thing is the effort from law enforcement to catch up with something with social media taking off and allowing this collaboration. They're now turning to, you know, these other uh uh takeovers that sometimes use vehicles. Very, very dangerous. These not necessarily, but there have been a lot of laws that have been put in place to address those kinds of takeovers with Yes. And now they're planning to use those laws to effectively uh react to this in the same way. Uh and one of the other things that I think might potentially be powerful is to going after the organizers civily, not just criminally but civily as well. Now whether or not there's much to but to hold them responsible in some sort of way. So I think or go after their parents enforcement is also struggling to catch up with this as it gets underway. So what's interesting about that you talked about the parents specifically the father in the home you start wheelchair take over you might I mean I I'll speak to the men out there because I am a man and I am a father I mean men should raise their daughters to be an example for the type of man that they would they would they would seek to marry and and spend their life with and they should raise their sons to be the type of man that their men their sons would emulate and uh we have a breakdown in society I just read a statistic it's either one in four or one in three households in the nation um are fatherless. Holy [ __ ] Fatherless homes in this nation. It's three times the global average. Globally, it's about 7%. It's 23 depending on what survey you see up to 33% of fatherless homes in our nation. And the breakdown of the home, like I said, and and the fact that these kids aren't getting the stable understanding of respect and those things that dads bring to the table. Moms do too, certainly, but that stable family unit is is very impactful on our society and and we've seen it and we continue to. Lisa, ma'am, yeah. I mean, the police shouldn't it shouldn't be up to them to parent these kids. I mean, to your point, Captain, the it should start at the with the parents. And I guarantee if that household was more structured and there were two parents checking in on their kids, we would see a reduction in this. I know if I if I were in this video and my dad were to see me in that video, he would be first very saddened. he would I think that this is just he personally take it personally against him and then as a as a as a college student I'm still under his purview there would be repercussions there would be accountability and that's what we don't see I'm going to be honest like if my dad found out I was in one of these videos oh man you remember what me and Pete and Jr said And Leslie used to do, we used to do the same thing. Did you guys bring a gun? No, you didn't. Well, what'd you bring with you? Did you get anything out of it? Good job, son. Well, you remember whenever the cops used to go after us, you know, he'd be immediately he would whoop your he would not whoop my ass. He'd be honestly the the rule whenever I was a kid was always you can do anything that you want. Never let me hear about it. You want to You want to do drugs, I don't want to hear about it. You want to break into houses, I don't want to hear about it. You want to break into cars, I get in a fight, I don't want to hear about it. You want to do anything, I don't want to hear about You want to steal a car, I don't want to hear about it. That was the only rule is that I could not get caught. And so that was it. My mom was the same. My mom was the same. She was the same way, too. She They let me do whatever the hell I wanted. And uh it's got nothing to do, by the way, with uh with parent. I mean, it does. It does. I mean, he's right. Right. But like I think that honestly the reason why they do this is because they can get away with it, right? That's the real reason is that uh they get away with it, nothing happens. And I think that's a huge problem. Uh because the moment that you let people get away with [ __ ] like that, it's just turns everything into a [ __ ] hole, right? And uh you don't want to live in a world like that. And nobody wants to live in a world like
