Joe Rogan on the Violence in Chicago

did you see the video of the poachers that went to kill rhino and the lion killer video of it it's a I saw a picture I saw still oh okay yeah I didn't know if it got a video but yeah that's [ __ ] up that's [ __ ] a few dude's got jacked right today that's we even that's the Lions name we even look at this turn up the volume Jamie my bear spray that's a good boy yeah that's a good boy - he's coming around [ __ ] it's following him it's circling him around yeah he's that thing is circling him man it's going towards him the thing is the thing is coming way too close to him man it's like going in a circle no yeah they got lucky there I would have been gone the scary thing about that is that bear could have just decided randomly through some firing of his bear synapses to take a left instead of a right just go at him he's just he could have easily decided that all those things crazy scared the [ __ ] out of me you know why man we don't believe in things we don't see we don't believe in them what do you mean you don't believe in things you don't see you know it's real but you don't believe danger no you don't believe in it it's not a real thing in your world right right when ice if you were outside and you saw that if you were with those people in Australia you uvular oh Jesus Christ this is well know if I was there I would know that's the reality that's real like my world doesn't evolve does it involve being somewhere near that close to a bear so you see it in my world would be what the wouldn't be real not like holy [ __ ] this can't be happening but if you were with those people if you went on that trip that I'd be that would be [ __ ] well one of the craziest things you get out of your whole existence gets down to the chance that this thing makes a decision to go one way or another yeah otherwise it's just gonna run you down just like that's like life if you go in certain scenarios you like like this [ __ ] can get real real fast real fast you know that's one of them man that is life any in a city life is just like holy [ __ ] a pop a little video yeah right how many people died in Chicago last week some insane number there was a the reporting on the lack of attention that the murders in Chicago are getting and like the national news and how crazy it is hoggle several times the one thing that sticks out to me every time I go there is how segregated it is yeah I've never gone major with a major city like New York is like we're all right piled up together four killed twenty four wounded and weekend shootings God twenty-eight people got shot dude that is crazy twenty-eight people know if we came in the afternoon I said [ __ ] standing on the sidewalk Jesus Messiah Jesus Christ like there is a there is a war going on in Chicago that's way more deadly than most of the wars we're engaging in overseas you don't hear about that many soldiers dying every day now that's another that's another scenario how we said like that's real yeah that's real right there's real SE or they walk outside in Chicago that is a real right fear that you should have and this is what screen of people in Chicago this year passes 1400 1400 people shot now how many people do we know how many got shot like doing tours of Afghanistan that's a good question this what is this this is the over the year does this year okay so let's Google how many soldiers were shot overseas this year you know the that's a weird thing man that we got a war going on if that was Mexicans invading North Dakota and shooting people now many people were dying every day we would be taking action but because it's happening to it was 1,400 and a hundred of them were white people it would be an issue oh yeah it was 1300 black people and 100 white people yeah you're going down you really right this is I mean people don't talk about it's 300 he's like that would be crazy that's a weird statistic it's a terrible situation like culturally to have something this is a Clarion you know and with 1400 people being shot that means and people don't want to realize this is you know post-traumatic stress disorder is a real thing in the ghetto as well as in the hills of Afghanistan like of course it's real of course so when you see something that when people are like why these guys have guns on them it's like dude 14-under people got shot I'm just trying to get to school and back yeah I'm trying to work him back of course it's you know we're not protecting those people it's exactly if they were stuck somewhere overseas and some in the middle of some war you know and they're American citizens please help get us a like you got to get these good if there was a place that doesn't like statistically the numbers of the southside of Chicago where all this murders going down there's a place statistically in another part of the world right we would be sent those numbers anywhere else and it's a it's a crisis if we had let's say Hawaii let's say if we had just moved into Hawaii I just just took over Hawaii and then we were in an area where people started getting shot and killed by locals like that we would want to read one extract those people from Hawaii we'd scoop them up from an island we would think they'd be shooting at the helicopters as we rescue okay right right well you just look at the real numbers just the raw numbers that's a crazy number of people getting shot just this year this is July July just started how many soldiers got shot I can't find trying to find the wounded I can only find deaths okay what's the deaths it's only like 1500 total since like 2001 since 2001 man 20 this is since January that seems weird saying only I know what you're saying are you saying in comparison to the other number since January yeah that's insane that's crazy that is insane and that's happening right here in the good old US of a in one of the biggest cities in the world Chicago's giant awesome city and it's happening in other cities also people don't know mm-hmm but Chicago is the most glaring yeah because yeah I don't travel around there so I don't know what happened or why it happened why they have this segregation there and what it was go to Chicago man it's like black people all the way over there mm-hmm then his downtown where it's nice and everybody's you know Detroit has that too right it's right as well yes yeah yeah um man then you go down south it's like that go to Louisiana it's crazy you were the king or the president Tony right that was the president how do you fix this you have to fix this is a process man first I always say number one is education right education is number one if you're just if you're getting a better education then you just avoid the pitfalls naturally because you just know that these certain things are wrong and yeah and by getting a better education I mean you have opportunities to do you know you have a music appreciation you have the arts you have sports you have things to occupy you during school hours and after school hours there's no type of any type of extra extra curricular activities for these kids mmm in Chicago there's gang life which you are born into which you are expected to go into once you're a certain age you all right you a man now here's a gun we don't like those guys those guys don't like us you don't even question it just like my father's been this way my grandfather's been this way my uncle's are this way my big brothers in this way you don't you're born right into it you know what is a war zone right and you don't question it and it's a war zone where you sleep and your family lives right not just a war zone with soldiers but a war zone with families and another thing better education you you're more worldly if you see the world you realize how small that how small your neighborhood is and there's a bigger world out there and you could want to go places and see things then you realize like what are we doing here yeah but these are people that I guarantee probably never left Chicago right probably never went on vacation to the south to visit grandparents and realized damn it south is nice and quiet and the people are friendly and they've never been to you know the zoo and saw animal and went home and googled the mating rituals of this you know open your mind up in your mind you see the world you know the stuff that you're involved in becomes just so small yeah this guy I don't like Scott cause he has a little red I have on blue I don't get it sort of education that tiny little area you know though that he operates in with his living his life it does matter right right right your reality is what's around you yeah that's until you get a scope of the bigger world like I grew up in the hood I grew up in bed-stuy Brooklyn the one of the wildest neighborhoods when I was gonna there but my vision was past it my vision was yeah this is going on outside but I'm gonna be there one day what do you attribute the having the ability to do that to uh having a mom and a dad my pops my father worked two full time jobs my whole childhood my father literally worked 80 hours a week 180 so just to see him go every day like Dan is doing this dude works hard Wow didn't have a lot to show for it made sure his kids had mom was a teacher education was you know she made an emphasis on it Wow you know it was just like my friends one of my best friends down the block no dad my friend across the street no dad my friend two doors down no dad then crack came and that was everything [ __ ] up everything started just the neighborhood started just to you know yeah that was like River Lake crack was people that are alive today or young kids today they don't remember the 80s yeah there was a like a plague a plague hit everybody knew somebody they got hit and you know so many people's lives were gone done done over people who were doing fine and then all of a sudden yeah I remember yeah it was a weird losing friends that's what that's what happened I started losing friends I I saw like people don't it was crazy man like some of the [ __ ] we saw I saw a friend get shot in the head like talk to him on the corner engaged what's up man yeah we gonna play ball later you wanna play ball all right cool I hit you later turn to walk down the block look that may be you know a thousand feet away and looked back to like just you know look around a neighborhood and saw a guy just bang kinda hair like he was he looked like if you ever see old like daddy kane album yeah he had the flattop and a bunch of jewelry on on the corner on the pay phone this is beeper days you know beep right and you gotta turn and the guy ran up on him while he was returning a beep and just tried to rob him and then he went for his gun and the guy just boom right in his head right on the corner of my first right on the corner of my block and I went home and my parents at it I was like this is crazy man and that's where I grew up but my vision was not confined to where I was it was I'm gonna be you know you're very fortune once I get out of here I'm gonna do this and once I leave here I'm gonna you're very fortunate to have those kind of examples you know if your dad who worked like that you're very fortunate yeah that's awesome yeah man it's hard for some people if they didn't get the break that you got in that in that regard that's why I don't I I it's not missed on me like I realized like if I didn't get that I didn't catch that last chopper mmm good for you man that's but that's that's where character comes from to means having someone like that as an example like how someone who can work two full-time jobs yeah and that is that's a force of will most people struggle with one man one is hard eight hours a day my dad's rule was everybody had to have a job at 14 13 was your last summer enjoy yourself a ball do what everyone do 14 you get the job Wow no he didn't play at all 14 job yeah he knows it's those guys he's the thing is man that's a bitter pill to swallow when you're young but damn that dudes who go through that always seem like they have an extra gear you know I know a lot of dudes who went through like boot camp type dads and they did not like it but they can do some [ __ ] like just a little bit more [ __ ] that other people could do you know they might not like the fact that dad was always telling them what to do but these [ __ ] can hike 20 miles and not complain my dad wasn't boot camp but it was like you're gonna work that's that's not even a question you're gonna work and then I have so many siblings that what his rule was you know we had to take care of each other so my oldest brother of course he turns 14 first he's working he gets paid you have to give everybody five dollars you got paid today give all your siblings four Wow next brother gets a job now has two brothers working to give everybody five dollars Wow it was like a socialism yeah my dad just made sure it all worked that's cool that's very generous - that's like everybody that's forcing everybody to be in it together right that's smart and taking man and then it was the rule was it was a if your brothers in a fight you're in a fight mmm so then it became don't [ __ ] with the rock brothers because there's so many of them you have to fight all of them so that kind of kept us safe during this whole you know wow that's awesome and what uh it's a bad situation to be in but a great place to develop character right your opportunities different character there yeah you know who you are you know what you have you know that you you you know you develop a sense of a you know go and get it work hard no excuses nobody's doing it for you nobody's coming to save you you're responsible for you yeah man we all need to have a little bit more of that in our life and then also a little bit more community - absolutely no oh yeah that right and we grew up in a time where it was next door neighbor could spank you right lady across the street could grab you and make you sit down on the stoop until your mother came home right right a guy in the bodega at the corner would tell you to sit inside and see your mother came home yeah people would uh they would police the neighborhood right we live in now we live in don't talk to my kid don't touch my hair Yeah right get off my son don't touch my child you know there's a lot of that well it's because somebody man is the weird balance I've talked about this recently but my cousin I saw my cousin get smacked by some lady once we're we were both like my cousins a year younger than me so I might have been six and she might have been five somewhere around there and wasn't any older than that right and this lady cuffed her and right in the face man she fell this lady fell on the ice and my cousin just happened to be there and she was looking at her on the ground and she did not laugh at her but the lady said she laughed I don't she the lady got up she was just angry that she fell and hurt herself she got up and smacked my cousin right in the face my cousin felt down I remember seeing it and realizing I couldn't do anything about it to save her to help her you know I was a little kid too and being terrified did this grown-up person just smack this little kid in the head for something that wasn't even real right like you don't want that either right it's like don't touch my kid it's probably better well that's not long run back crazy people so not helping raise a child that's the right ass adult that's just a crazy she was a crazy lady that lived in our building
