The Ron Edwards American Experience - 261104

God, I love this station. Program loaded and ready. And away we go. Say A. Say M. Say E. Say R. Say I. Say C. Say A. Say M. Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Ron Edwards American Experience Talk Show, where our unalienable rights are celebrated. And now, your radio refreshment, Ron Edwards. Well, good day. Hello. How are you? I'm Ron Edwards. This is the Ron Edwards American Experience, and welcome one and all. Man, oh man, oh man, oh man. Yeah, one particular side in the political spectrum took a real thumping on election night, didn't they? By people like Mark Taylor, Jay, and others. Even myself, I gave a few warnings here and there, and here we are. Because President Trump, either through ignorance, stupidity, bullheadedness, arrogance. There were some things he didn't follow through, some things he did follow through on. But it was enough for the American people to say, you know what? We'd rather just go ahead and just hand the country over to Islamists like El-Said in Michigan and turn the so-called red state of Texas into a big blue entity. And Ohio, another big state, big economic powerhouse, it's gone blue. Now, I can understand why Ohio went blue. Vivek Ramaswamy, whatever, hopefully I won't have to say his name anymore after today. He ran a horrible campaign. He was awful. Difficult to get along with. And so he was a turnoff. But still, his awful campaign as an individual as he is, when it comes to the political spectrum, he's still light years better than what the people chose. Amy Acton, who has the same kind of mentality as Governor Whitmer of Michigan. And so now Ohio's economy is going to be hampered quite a bit, as will Texas, as will other great states that have were enjoying growing economies. So rightfully so, the American people were a bit upset with President Trump and others because of the choices he made. I was talking to my producer just before the show, and he rightfully pointed out how Trump messed up when it came to setting up his cabinet. And I'll start with Susie Wiles. Now, when he first picked her, boy, I talk about naivete. I was very naive. I didn't know about her. I thought, You know, what I was being told that she was a conservative woman that would, you know, maintain decorum in the White House and that she would make sure that he had a nice conservative cabinet surrounding him and all that. And so for a few days, I actually bought into that. Then I did my own research and I looked into her and I'm like, oh, my gosh, either I was misled or the people that shared information with me about her were just complete liars. And so President Trump screwed up with his cabinet. President Trump screwed up with a few other things. Now, I personally don't think that with all of the screw-ups that he made, I don't think that was right to turn the nation over to those who literally want to kill our nation. I don't think that was right. What I think should have been happening is that the American people should have been demanding... that individuals like John Thune and others who are literally, and Susan Wiles, who are literally blocking the Trump agenda, which was a very good agenda, by the way, they should have been dealt with, thrown out, whatever. But that didn't happen. And then, oh my gosh, Katie by the door. One of the most powerful aspects of American life, in my opinion, throughout our history, is when the leaders of the nation surrounded themselves with leaders of the cloth, ministers, men and women who pray to the Lord on behalf of the Republican, on behalf of the presidency. And so President Trump surrounded himself with a bunch of them, you know, and I guess their great and fearless leader, wink, wink, you know, Paula, Paula White, And I always thought that that was a joke. Then you had the wimpy ones who just fell under her spell, I guess. All these people running around claiming Jesus, right? But they carried themselves more beholden to her than Jesus. And so when you, as a leader, are surrounded by people who were praying. I don't know what she was praying to, to be honest with you. I don't know if it's Diana or whatever, Venus. I don't know. There you go, Jay. Mother Moon. Mama Moon. And so, I don't know. Remember when President Trump was, I think it was on Air Force One, and someone asked him about going to heaven or whatever, and he got this look on his face. So I just, I don't know. I don't know if I'm going to heaven or not. I just don't know. And I thought, wait a minute, wait a minute. You've got all these people right down the hall. We're all running around claiming Jesus. Okay. And they talk to him on a regular or semi-regular basis. And you need to tell me out of all those conversations, he knows, was not able to conclude whether he was on the pathway to go to heaven or not? Now, I fault both the president and the gaggle of people that were down the hall from him. First of all, if someone comes to Christ, you're supposed to give them information. You're supposed to encourage them to read the word. You're supposed to encourage them to pray, get in connection to God for themselves, because we're all going to be judged individually by ourselves in the room. What did you do? And so they should have schooled him on that concept. And he got a letter from Franklin Graham, who's not, I don't think, a part of that group. But he at least had the decency to send him a letter explaining to him about coming to Jesus and all of that and walking therein. And I guess the president was so thrilled with the letter, he showed it to the world. Lookie, lookie, look what Franklin Glenn sent me. He sent me a letter. And so, but that was kind of broke my heart a little bit because here you have an individual We were told back in 2016 or 15 that on June 21st of that year that he formally accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. But I guess that was it. He accepted him as Lord and Savior, and then boom. Okay, I got my Jesus pill, and I guess I can go on now. And so, yeah. Yeah. So I could kind of understand why he would wonder. But then again, on the other hand, by this time, by all this time in between when he was wondering, you know, I don't know, from when he first was born again, he should have, by just natural curiosity, done a little reading for himself. That's what I believe. You know, even if someone didn't tell him, you would think, if you accept Jesus Christ in your heart, that you would take some time. Well, that's his book over there. Let me read about him. I'm just saying. And so they're both at fault. He's at fault for himself because we're responsible for ourselves in that regard. But as we look at what happened overnight, To quote George W. Bush, when the Republicans got their butts kicked another time, yeah, there was a real thumping. A real thumping. And I think it was a combination of stupid people. And I think it was a combination of disappointment of the people or by the people, et cetera, et cetera. And it culminated into this, this horrible development. Now I, I, Now, because I believe I'm a pretty logical fellow, I cannot comprehend how with all the disappointment I could muster up, enough to reach from the earth to the moon, how I could be so disappointed that I'd say, you know what? As disappointed as I am with President Trump, you know what? I'm just going to go ahead and support and vote for El-Said. Yeah, Mr. Burkerman, Mr. Sharia. And I'm going to make sure that now we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. I think it's 17 female governors now. Only two of which are decent human beings as far as I'm concerned. Based upon principles. And just two. All the rest of them are Jezebels. Ding dong Jezebels. Yep. And I would tell them that to their face. A lot of information to back me up on every single one of them. Because every single one of them, with the exception of the two, the one that won for Tennessee. Always liked that lady, by the way. And there was one more. I can't remember her name. It's a list of them. And... Forgot the list. I left it on another floor. So anyway, I'm stuck here without my list. But here's the thing. Why, if you know enough to be disappointed with the Trump administration, and you know what you want, if you're smart enough to understand what you want and what you're disappointed about, And you understand about DSA. You understand about Islam. You understand about DEI. You understand about open borders. You understand about economies that are much worse than this one. Even when there wasn't a war. You understand all these things, okay? You understand that, yes, we didn't get as many of the illegals out as we should. You understand that a lot of that action was blocked by judges. Now, I'm of the opinion that the president should have told the judges to screw themselves and just go ahead and massively deport the people. And if they got in the way, do what you got to do. I would have sent in ICE officials in armored vehicles, big ones. That's, to me, that's You know, that's just a rudimentary decision because you see how they were protested against massively. People were jumping on them, spitting on them, doing all kinds of things. And they should have been, you know, a little more rough. Yeah. When the people got rough like that, the ice should have gotten even more rough. They should have been shown in the beginning Of all that. We're not going to take it. But hey. They tried to take the softy approach. Mr. Softy. That doesn't work. When you're dealing with. Individuals. Who are out to destroy your nation. You don't act like Mr. Softy. Mr. Softy. It's an old ice cream. That you know. The ice cream trucks used to sell. Mr. Softy. But you don't act like that. You're supposed to come after them with a hard-nosed attitude. But no, they didn't take that attitude. You know, you had individual cases, of course. A couple of times people were shot or whatever, and they were totally in the wrong and deserved what they got. But for the most part, I don't think that they were rough enough. I don't think that, you know, you don't send two or three ICE agents, knowing that they're going to be surrounded by, in some cases, hundreds of people who are paid by Antifa and other organizations, George Soros, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, to be there, to be a pain in the backside, to block things. So there were things even with that that the Trump administration could have done a better job because most of us, I believe, Most of us wanted the illegals out and still do. Now, I would suggest to the president to say, you know what, screw it. Got two years left. I'm just going to go ahead and do what we have to do. And I'm of the opinion that, for example, in California the other day when this jail, the warden, and they decided, well, we're going to close this. Jail down for three hours. No visitors, no nothing. Because ICE is here to pick up, collect illegal border crossers who were guilty of crimes. Because they wanted to let them go. And guess what happened? The ICE people just, oh well, okay. Bye now. And they left. And I'm thinking, oh my God. What is wrong with these people? What is wrong? Something's in the water, man. Something is in the water. And so when it comes to dealing, going against evil and against wrongdoers, there's nothing biblically incorrect about going hard after those who are hell-bent on destroying your country. Nothing. So to all my fellow Christians out there, many of them I don't know, but a few I do know, who would try to use Jesus Christ and the word of God as a reason to propel themselves in the way of ice and say, Jesus wouldn't do that. You're supposed to spread the love of Jesus. You're not a real Christian. A real Christian wouldn't want borders. Christ didn't want borders. What? Are you kidding me? And I think, my gosh, people that call themselves men and women of God who have that kind of mentality, I've got to ask, what book are you reading? Yes, it's true. The little conversation Jay and I had before the broadcast, he talked about all the things that went wrong and why in the administration. I'll tell you another reason why things went awry. Went to cuckooville, okay? Nutsville. It's because of what I've been talking about for a long time in the body of Christ. Christ. The wimpest, Americanus apologeticus attitude of Christians. Who allow those on the left to infiltrate the mentality and infiltrate the customs that are supposed to be carried out based upon the word of God. But it becomes mixed with a lot of leftist orientation. Which, you know, I was... brought up to understand that when it comes to certain things, it's black and white. It's cut and dry. As Reagan used to say, it's either up or down. And when you start, you know, mongrelizing everything, you end up with a hot mess. We have a mongrelized economy. We have elements of a free market economy, but we also have elements of socialism. And now, because of retarded people, the people are in place or will be in place beginning in January. If we don't really get in the way ourselves, these people are designing a plan now to fulfill their dream. And I want to share the things that they want to do. Real quick, hold on here. How about this? Due to the imperfections of President Trump and his administration, guess what you may be getting, my friends? House Democrats have released their first 100-day agenda. Abolish ICE. release criminal border crossers, they call them illegal aliens, but they're illegal border crossers, reopen the border, repeal no tax on tips, repeal no tax on overtime, repeal no tax on social security, expand the Supreme Court, wage war on oil and gas, put men and girls sports, increase inflation, abolish prisons, defund the police. Now, I have my opinion, but I'd like to know your opinion in the chat room. Do you think what I just named is worse than even the disappointments of the Trump administration? I'm just saying. I hope your answer is yes. Because if it is, maybe... that can help us in the future to propel the nation back into the right direction. And if we get a good president again, that he won't become politically retarded and pick the wrong people who misguide him and mislead him. Or people won't be elected by the American people who are obstructionists, people like John Thune. People like many Republicans who suffer from Trump derangement syndrome because Trump, say what you want about him, he's not a globalist. Unfortunately, in the waning days of his administration, I think he became too focused on certain foreign entities. but I still wouldn't label him a globalist. But that's one of the bottom line and the main bottom line issue as to why even Republicans hate President Trump with a passion. Because with all the faults you can name, and there are some that are well pointed out, you know, that Trump administration is still a lot better than what's going to happen if we allow it starting in January. They've already told him, hey, President Trump, you better lawyer up because we're going to be law-faring you. And you know how the word talks about you get rid of the evil spirits and you drive them out, right? But if you don't keep things clean, they're going to come back seven times worse. And each time the leftists have come back, they were more difficult than they were the time before. Look what happened under Ali Obama. Look what happened under the Autopen presidential administration. They were worse. I mean, with the Corona China virus and all of that stuff. Six feet apart. And all that was, was another experiment to see how retarded the American people were or are and wanted to see how much they could get away with, how much they would put up with. And lo and behold, millions and millions of American people put up with it and joined in self-policing themselves and becoming mini bullies, against their fellow citizens. Neighbors turned against neighbor. Family members turned against family members. Ask me how I know. They're family members that I don't see to this day because they told my wife and I, hey, hey, you didn't take the jab? Well, you can't come around us for Thanksgiving dinner. I said, okay, pilgrim, I'm done. And then after the thing blew over, after, you know, after everything, Oh, you want to rejoin us for Thanksgiving dinner? Nope. Nope. Because I reversed it. I said, well, I can't come around you now. Why? I said, well, you took the jab. In most cases, it was more than once. They got their boosters. I said, I can't come around you now because you're the one that's, I have to avoid you and people like you. I said, what your body does is spew out spike proteins. So you're poisonous to me. And I said, well, I hope, I pray you've come to Jesus and all of that. And I said, I look forward to checking you out in heaven. But on earth, as long as we're in these flesh bodies, we're done. We're done, done, done. And so, yeah. See, because when they said, hey, we don't want you around here because you didn't take the shot, I decided then, well, I'll never see them again in life. I said, you know what, because I can cut you off like I'm clipping a little sheet of paper, boom, and the piece of paper falls down and goes into the waste can, and you don't see it anymore. I'm like, you know, if I know that you're that stupid and that retarded, I'll look at you as a danger. Because if stuff really hits the fan, who knows if you won't be like a brown shirt and try to turn my wife and I in or something. And so, yeah, it was crazy. In Michigan, the governor was talking about, Governor Whitmer was talking about neighbor snitching. If you see in the spring or summertime, you see your neighbors having a gathering in their backyard and they're standing close to one another. Now, if they went that far at that time, what do you think they're going to try to do? What do you think their coming attractions will be in the not too distant future? Like I said, every time they come out, because they learn where they made mistakes. Unlike Republicans, they continue the same old, same old. And then they become, oh, wait a minute. We're running the House, the Senate, and we have the presidency too? Holy mackerel, Andy. What do they do? They compromise with those that they defeated and turn against those who even espouse America First policies, who even espouse more liberty for religious activities, meaning Christian activities. More freedom for that. President Trump did at least espouse those things. And you see how he was treated. And so, yeah, that's why a bullet glazed his ear. That's why there were people out to shoot him here and there. Hither and thither. Because if he were totally evil, if he were totally a bad guy, it would not have tried to harm him. If they really thought that well, he's really on our side and he's just faking it out, faking the people out like George W. Bush did, they wouldn't have tried to kill him. So I just ask you to take that into consideration when you think about President Trump. And during for these past two years, I urge you to pray for the man. And I'm speaking from a position of rational self-interest. Not just to pray for him, just to pray for him, just to pray for him. No. Because we all still want to live our lives. We still want to have the freedoms and the liberties that are so ensconced in our Bill of Rights. I don't want to wake up and hear Islamic call to prayer. I don't want to live in an area, well, I already do, where they're talking about outlawing dog ownership. Well, not in the specific city or county that I live in, but in the next county where Dearbornistan is, they're already talking about stuff like that. So, hey, hey, and all you wonderful people in Texas, deep in the heart of Texas, A place that I so admired ever since childhood. Just the word Texas was inspiring. And the legendary stories of the people and the Alamo. and all the wonderful things that have happened in Texas and all of that and the reputation of Christian thought and the patriot movement in that state and all of that. And you think, my gosh, by gosh, by golly, they really have it going on there. But then again, when you looked into it, and some of us did, you think Trump was bad. Whoa, Nelly, what about Governor Abbott? Hmm? Oh, yeah. Allegedly, I'll say allegedly, because I don't want to get in a big heap of trouble just in case by some small percentage possibility that I could be wrong. But in more than one source, I read that, hey, he took a little money under the table. A little money, okay? And that's why, even though he speaks a great game, he speaks very well against the Islamic takeover and all of that and what they're doing or what he wants to do. But yet, somehow, the Muslims do everything they want to do. What is it, four new mosques opening per month on average in the great state of Texas? And because ICE, when they did try to get a little forceful in getting rid of people, deep in the heart of Texas, the Spanish people said, oh no, they're going too hard. We voted for Trump to get the illegals out, but what? Oh my, holy mackerel, he's really doing it down here. So they turned on him. Then, see, Texas, when you think of energy production, very important. When you think about the size of its economy, very important. And how many times did I hear ad nauseum, well, if we lose Texas, we're going to lose the country. Well, here we are. Texas is as blue, is bluer than the blue stripes on my shirt. Oh yeah, very blue now. Just like that. See, one thing we act like retards in the United States of America, we allow individuals that we know that chant death to America. Not only to stay in the country, but to become officials in government. In some cases, they have more liberties and freedoms than many others. Okay? I'll give you an example. How many times do you hear Christianity and Christians insulted? Jewish people insulted. Anti-Semitism is what they call it. But there's a huge and growing bigotry against Christians and Christianity as a whole. And it trickles down to the most minute of activities, all the way down to, if you go to the average city today during the Christmas season, it's called Winter Fest, Winterland Displays instead of Christmas Displays. I mean, just little things like that. They call out each holiday, Ramadan, Halloween, which I don't think is a holiday. It's a day of devil worship, in my humble opinion. But, you know, all the other holidays. But when it comes to Christmas, they say, you know, when I say Christmas, I'm saying one holiday, right? But then during the Christmas season, you go to the store. What do they say? Happy holidays. Happy holidays. And I'll say, you know, which ones? What are you talking about? Of course, that pisses them off because they know then that I know. That they were trying to, in a small way, minimize Christmas. And just that's a little tiny trivial thing. But I'm just saying. If you don't catch the small little things, that's what opens the door to the big things. That's one of the reasons why I loved Rudy Giuliani as mayor. I lived in New York during that time. And to be a young guy just out of college, actually out of high school, going to college during that time, I thought, oh, my God, it's heaven on earth. New York was so safe and so clean and so beautiful. Everything was just perfect. Opportunities were just out the wang wang. It was such a blessed environment. But the root of it was, I don't know if you guys remember the guy David Wilkerson. And he opened church in the city, in the Times Square area. And some days they had 24-hour prayer. And next thing you know, voila, a Giuliani was elected. And he immediately went after Times Square, cleaned it up, made it so family friendly. Got the horrors off the street. 42nd Street got cleaned up. All the way from 42nd to Herald Square around 34th, cleaned up. It was just a wonderful, a wonderful. And all of Central Park was cleaned up. And I loved it because we lived two blocks from Central Park West. And any day, you know, especially in the autumn. Oh, my gosh. Autumn in New York. Oh, my gosh. It was just wonderful. And I thought because of how great things were. I thought. And that's one thing that. I've noticed about certain people, including myself, and I admit my mistake. My dad was like that, and even Ronald Reagan was like that. We believed that when things are going really great, that the American people are smart enough to not want this to go away, that they would fight to maintain this. Rational self-interest would kick in. But then it doesn't. And I'm reminded, well, wait a minute. Adam and Eve had eternal life. They didn't have to bump off. They really had it going on. And they allowed it to be taken away. They allowed themselves to lose that. So why do you think That when things are going great now in the United States of America, the people are smart enough to maintain it. Oops. And it goes in cycles. It's like, oh, wow, things are going real good. We don't want this to continue. No, no, we don't want this. We want to go through hell. So, okay. Things weren't going perfectly with Trump, but... there's a possibility that now America will literally now go through hell. Because don't think that the leftist pigs haven't learned from their mistakes that opened the door to the America First movement and all that that came about the inspirational running of President Trump and all of that. And because we didn't do what was necessary to solidify and make more permanent the changes that were campaigned upon, they're going to come swooping in with fangs gaping to utterly destroy all the things that I just listed that were done, which have been a benefit to many of the American people. See, this is what I've tried to tell people since high school. The left, the Democrats, and now their friends, the Islamists, communist, etc., etc., you think these people want to govern in a way that would facilitate a better life for you? No. They want to govern in a way that would facilitate making life much more difficult for you. And at the same time, daring you to do anything about it. to the point they want to close your churches so you can't even pray about it. As if we can't pray at home by ourselves anyway, but I'm just saying. So these people are playing for keeps. We should have learned how to play for keeps ourselves. So that we don't keep going through these stupid, retarded cycles. Win, lose, win, lose, win, lose. It's crazy. This cyclical, cyclical living. Cyclical American living. I think it's retarded. And people go over the same. I know most of the people that were alive under the Uncle Joe Biden administration are still alive today. And they're so stupid. They say, you know what? I'd rather go back to a more crappy existence. Oh, yeah. I want our military to be crippled. Ooh. Ooh. I want the illegals to have more rights than I do. I want the Somalians to continue to be able to rip us off to the tune of billions of dollars while we, the American people, have to continue to scrounge just to exist. Oh, yeah. So, hey, for the people that voted for this, I hope you're happy and I hope it is my prayer that the people that voted for this that only they suffer from this. Because I can tell you, I didn't volunteer for this. Jay, I'm sure Jay, my producer, didn't volunteer for this. Mark Taylor didn't. And every Christian with a working brain did not say, you know what? Trump was kind of ridiculous in some of his misactions. or misfortunes concerning his cabinet and a few other decisions. So because of that, I really want things to get so bad that we're all in misery, utter misery. And this is what the left wants to bring about. And if you don't believe me, when and where, and you can pick any nation you can muster up, that when the left fully took over, when did life ever end? Just saying. I cannot name a case when it comes to countries when life generally improved for the better, for the people, the masses. When the left took secure control. And it doesn't matter what division of the left, whether it's the Islamist, like the Khomeini's when they took over Persia, known as Iran. Under the shawl, yeah, there was a bit of dictatoring about. He was a bit of a dictator, but women could walk around in dresses. There were many Christians who carried out their lives in peace. By the way, there's one thing that happens whenever Muslims take control. A mysterious thing that happens. Christian populations decrease. It doesn't matter if it was Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, all these nations I'm naming, and I could continue with the Middle East nations. At one time, during the time that many of us were alive, there were still Christians in those nations. Now it's almost down to nothing. Why do you think that happens? In my opinion, two reasons. Of course, the Muslims coming after them, and then the Christians, for some retarded reason, never having the ability, the will, the desire, or the skill set to fight back. And there's nowhere in the Bible, nowhere, where it says to the population of Christians, whenever enemies come against you, You must voluntarily be victims. It doesn't say that. And I always wonder, why do the people of God become huge populations of cowards? Because being cowardly lions does not protect you from being murdered, your women being raped, your babies being cooked in microwaves. like what happened when the Palestinians invaded Israel on that fateful October 7th day. But populations of Christians always decrease whenever you have Muslims that get into authority. So, that's the way it is, my friends. And until we in the body of Christ man up, not only physically, but spiritually and mentally. Meaning not only do we need to man up physically, but we need to man up in our brains so that we can do a better job as a community of Christians in this country to figure things out. And that comes back to something that I have complained about for years. About Christians not giving a darn about society. Just ignoring it. And then I'm sure that it was Christians when Jay was telling me that people were coming after, you know, angry at he and Mark Taylor because of what happened. The last time I checked, neither one of those gentlemen had a darn thing to do with what happened. Were they warning us? Yes. But if someone, if you're in the middle of the street, right? And there's a car careening down the street. Just zooming down the freeway going 95. And they tell you, get out of the street. There's a vehicle coming. It's speeding. If it hits you, you're going to go flying and you'll be dead. And you Don't get out of the street. What happens? You get clobbered, and it's over. It's curtains. But you have no right, in my opinion, to get mad at someone that warned you. Now, you can disagree with some things. There were a few things that I disagreed with. But overall, I'm like, shh, dudes, we're telling the truth. And there were things that I warned about. Same thing. But I think it's retarded for people to get angry at someone who was only telling the truth. And it happens what they warned you about. So why would you get angry at them for telling you? That's crazy work. And it kind of reminds me of a situation that was years ago. I was living in New York at the time. And I went on an outing. We had to go to Atlantic City. And I didn't want to go. It was like these marching bands and they compete. And the young lady I was dating at the time, she wanted to go. And there was another couple. They wanted to go. And I was like, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I just said, boy, I can just imagine how boring that is. But I went. And we're sitting up there watching these bands. And they're just clapping and everything, watching, beating that drum. And I'm thinking to myself, oh, my gosh. So anyway, we get to the end of the program. I'm like, whew. So we get a bite to eat. And we're on the way back. back to New York City. And the guy who was driving, we went with a couple that was in their car, they were driving. And for some reason, the guy had a problem with me. I mean, he had an attitude upon meeting me. He was Mr. Grump, right? And I told him, I said, okay, fine. You want to act like a little male? Okay, I can't say it. They call them female dogs, okay? You want to act like that? Be that, then so be it. So anyway, on the way home, the guy just started speeding like crazy. His average speed was like between 95 and a hundred. He was just going the New York through way, just buzzing along. And I got this feeling all of a sudden I said, I have a funny feeling. The, um, you're gonna get a ticket i just have a funny feeling the police are watching they're they're seeing this and he said i didn't know what the hell i was talking about shut up that you know he's really getting talking smack and so about um a few minutes later next thing you know There's Smokey. Oh, yeah, right behind. The heat was coming. And, you know, the alarm. So we're pulled over. And not only was he pulled over for speeding, when he gets out, the cops look at him with alarm. Turns out this guy, they thought, was a burglar that they were looking for. He fit the description to the T. And I'm thinking, holy mackerel. I knew I shouldn't have come. I started saying that I knew I shouldn't have come. This is just crap. I was bored to tears. And now this? This driving retard? He could be a thug too? And I'm thinking, oh my gosh. So, After, I mean, it must have been about two or three hours. They took us back to the police station. No one else had any problem. They had no problem with the rest of us. But this one guy, they took him in the back and they interrogated him. Anyway, after two or three hours, they concluded he wasn't the guy. But he had to pay a ticket. Yes, a bit of a ticket. And even then, yeah, tickets were pretty substantial, speeding tickets, you know, as far as, you know, what you had to pay in New York State. What happened? The guy says, I don't have that amount of money. So, you know, my parents taught me, you know, whenever you go somewhere, make sure You know, you don't let the people know that you're with, that you're loaded for bear. And, you know, just in case whatever happens, you can handle it. And so I'm thinking, oh, man. So I said, you know what? To the gal I was with, I said, tell you what, I, you know, I can get us home. It's not a problem. I'm, you know, I'm not sweating it. I said, we're covered. And all of a sudden, the other gal goes to the lady I was with. Can't you ask your friend, your guy friend, if he'll help so-and-so? He doesn't have the money. And if he doesn't have the money, will I? And I'm like, dude, you heard how he talked to me. You heard me warn him to slow down. He told me what? Shut up. That I didn't know what I was talking about. I said, so why should I give one little red cent? Why should I give a shiny golden penny to his cause? Why? Logically speaking, why should I? And I said, I'll tell you. I shouldn't. I shan't. So, She starts crying and blubbering and all of that stuff. And I'm sitting, I'm just sitting there. I said, I said, I'm straight. I said, quiet as is kept. I can just, we're squared away. And then after about I don't know, an hour. Both the chicks are just squealing at me. Just going at it. And all of a sudden, they're almost looking at me like I'm the bad guy. Because I was refusing to pay for this guy's, give him the money for the ticket. I said, you think that I would get my money back from him? Oh, bro, I'll give you the money back. I'll give you the money back, bro. Yeah. I said, and if a bullfrog had wings, he wouldn't bump his butt. You know, and so, oh, come on, bro. I didn't mean what I said, man. I said, yes, you did. You're just in big heap of trouble right now. And so, but after about two more hours, of all the squawking, I went ahead and I paid the ticket for the guy, which just to make peace. Cause I, you know, both, you know, just, I, I just got tired of the screeching and I just said here, here. And so after that, you know, we finally got back to New York city and I asked the guy, um, You know, when you're going to give me my money and all of that. And he said, man, as soon as I can. And I'm like, wait a minute, as soon as you can. And so after that, the gal that I went there with and those other two people, that was the last time I saw any of them. The gal that I went there with, she tried to call me. She kept calling me a few times. I spoke to her. She wondered why did I, you know, just cut her off like that. I said, look, you went to bat for the guy and even got angry at me because I was not going to give him the money. And when he flippantly told me, hey, when I can, you did not respond or react and see any reaction, even in your facial expression. And so then I knew at that time I'm out. Peace out. And so I'm just saying that whether it's somebody warning you about the country or a traffic situation, people just don't like people that know what they're talking about. And they'll even get angry at you after what you said could happen comes to pass and And it has always bothered me. I was taught if someone tells me something, and even if I don't believe it, to respect them enough to even just respect them to the level of, okay, well, that's their opinion, and keep it moving. Because chances are they could be right. But if somebody tells me something that I may not agree with, And then it turns out they're right. Why would I snipe at them? Why would I turn on them? And even before they're proven right, why would I snipe at them? Just because they said something. And that is common in the body of Christ, by the way. I've seen that kind of attitude in the body of Christ. Another form of division amongst us. People do hear from God. Other people are smart and they have logical minds and they can think and deduce situations. You know, not everybody is always wrong. And men that are logical and they're hearing from God, that's a strong combination. And so, I just think that we need to, in the body of Christ, learn to respect one another a little more. Instead of sniping at Mark Taylor's ankles, you ought to be saying if what the guy was saying way before election and then you see it happen, you ought to be thinking, hmm, you ought to be praying that maybe God will smarten you up a bit and that you can see and govern yourself accordingly. But it happened, you know, there's a history of that. of prophets getting, going through hell just because they opened their mouths a little bit. And I've always thought that that was kind of childish. I always thought it was, you know, people that do that come after people for telling the truth. I've always thought of them as nothing but chumps anyway. You know, and that's just the way it is, man. And we've got to stop that in the body of Christ. And I ask you, what do you want for America now that She's gone blue. All of our major states, the big powerhouse economic powers, most of them with the exception of Florida. they've gone stupid. They've gone blue, blue. Now that I see that my time is up, thank you so much for your time. And as always at this time, I urge you to please, please pray for your nation, your friends, your family, and even your enemies that they get it right before it's too late. Please do that. And don't forget to treat the others the same way you want to be treated. Until next time, I'm Ron Edwards. Excelsior! That's all, folks. Tags that stage right.
