[00:00:28] Email is pete at thepetekalendershow.com. And you can hit me up on Twitter. That is at Pete Kaliner and that's spelled K-A-L-I-N-E-R. I do have some messages regarding last hour. We just spoke with Kevin Canty. He is the former chief deputy. I always got to make sure I don't say deputy chief because that's it. Those are different agencies. Chief deputy.

[00:00:58] Chief deputy.

[00:01:02] Chief deputy.

[00:01:06] Chief deputy.

[00:01:11] Chief deputy.

[00:01:14] this last hour.

[00:01:17] And just when I was walking him out to the door,

[00:01:20] I said, I don't know the sheriff.

[00:01:23] So this is just what it looks like to me from the outside.

[00:01:29] And I hear McFadden do interviews and I read his stuff

[00:01:34] and I've seen him in front of the county commission.

[00:01:36] And then I see the news stories about problems in the jail

[00:01:39] and I see people leaving and getting fired

[00:01:41] and saw the complaints during the sheriff's election two years ago.

[00:01:50] So all I can do is look from the outside and draw conclusions.

[00:01:56] Not that I am specifically bound to or wed to any of these ideas initially

[00:02:03] just because I don't know the man.

[00:02:05] I've never met the man.

[00:02:07] And all I can base it off of, just like anybody else in Mecklenburg County

[00:02:13] that doesn't know him or hasn't met him,

[00:02:15] doesn't have any kind of a personal relationship with the guy,

[00:02:19] all we can do is assess from the outside.

[00:02:23] And from the outside, it looks like he is a raging, malignant,

[00:02:30] narcissistic sociopath.

[00:02:31] That's what it looks like.

[00:02:33] And look, maybe there is a perfectly reasonable explanation for that.

[00:02:41] Namely, probably that he is.

[00:02:43] That's probably the case.

[00:02:46] I don't know what else.

[00:02:48] I don't know another conclusion I could come to.

[00:02:51] I've played the audio clips.

[00:02:53] Look, he has appeared.

[00:02:54] I give it and I've always given the sheriff credit for going on.

[00:03:01] Brett Jensen's show.

[00:03:02] Brett does the show every weekday, 7 till 8 p.m.

[00:03:06] here breaking with Brett Jensen.

[00:03:07] And he has gone on Brett Jensen's show.

[00:03:10] He has taken phone calls.

[00:03:12] I have been, I think in almost after every appearance,

[00:03:17] because I listened to the episode,

[00:03:19] I pull some sound bites out of the episode.

[00:03:24] And every single time I hear him,

[00:03:27] he does nothing to alleviate my concerns

[00:03:30] that he is in fact the things that I think he is.

[00:03:33] In fact, every time he gets up there and talks,

[00:03:35] he makes things worse.

[00:03:37] For me, he makes it worse.

[00:03:42] And so I can't imagine what it must be like

[00:03:46] for a lot of the staff that still work at the sheriff's office

[00:03:51] that are trying just to get to retirement, right?

[00:03:55] They've put in 20 years or whatever,

[00:03:57] and they're just trying to make it to retirement.

[00:03:59] And so they're putting up with this toxic work environment,

[00:04:03] which despite what the sheriff has said,

[00:04:06] because it's never his fault,

[00:04:08] that's why I call him that.

[00:04:09] Sheriff, not my fault, McFadden,

[00:04:11] because every single thing that goes wrong

[00:04:13] at the sheriff's office since he took over,

[00:04:17] it's never his fault.

[00:04:18] It's six years later,

[00:04:19] and he's still blaming past sheriffs

[00:04:22] for everything, almost everything.

[00:04:26] So I don't know how these people that are still working,

[00:04:32] they're putting up with this stuff,

[00:04:34] except fear, right?

[00:04:36] They don't want to be,

[00:04:38] they don't want to get fired.

[00:04:40] They don't want to lose their pension.

[00:04:41] They don't want to get blackballed if they do get fired, right?

[00:04:44] If McFadden kicks them out,

[00:04:46] then does that mean they're going to have a hard time

[00:04:48] going to another agency?

[00:04:53] I get it.

[00:04:54] And that's why,

[00:04:56] you know,

[00:04:56] it's,

[00:04:57] you know,

[00:04:57] God puts people,

[00:04:58] I think Sheriff McFadden talked about this

[00:05:00] when he said he was just like Jesus,

[00:05:02] basically.

[00:05:03] I'm not kidding about,

[00:05:04] hang on a sec,

[00:05:05] I'm not kidding about that.

[00:05:06] Like,

[00:05:06] people think that,

[00:05:09] uh,

[00:05:10] let's see here,

[00:05:10] I have it.

[00:05:11] Yeah,

[00:05:11] here it is.

[00:05:12] God sent me here for a reason.

[00:05:15] And if I'm the sacrificial lamb

[00:05:17] to upset the word racism in America,

[00:05:20] so be it.

[00:05:21] God gave up his only son.

[00:05:23] There you go.

[00:05:27] He's like Jesus.

[00:05:28] So,

[00:05:29] maybe God put Kevin Canty

[00:05:31] at the sheriff's office.

[00:05:34] Because

[00:05:36] here's a guy who's got

[00:05:38] the resume,

[00:05:40] right?

[00:05:40] He's got the experience.

[00:05:42] He's got what seems to be,

[00:05:43] and I've just met him

[00:05:44] today for the first time,

[00:05:46] seems to have the disposition

[00:05:48] and the character.

[00:05:49] But also,

[00:05:50] he's got the,

[00:05:51] the length of service.

[00:05:53] He is,

[00:05:55] uh,

[00:05:55] sort of inoculated

[00:05:57] because

[00:05:58] he's already retired.

[00:06:00] He's,

[00:06:00] he's done his time.

[00:06:02] He's gotten his,

[00:06:02] his,

[00:06:03] uh,

[00:06:03] retirement.

[00:06:04] And he,

[00:06:04] so that's not a threat for him

[00:06:06] any longer.

[00:06:08] And he knows the way

[00:06:09] these things are supposed

[00:06:10] to be,

[00:06:10] uh,

[00:06:11] run.

[00:06:12] He knows the way

[00:06:12] these agencies are supposed

[00:06:13] to operate.

[00:06:16] And the thing that has also

[00:06:17] struck me,

[00:06:18] and I keep referring to it

[00:06:19] as maladministration

[00:06:21] instead of just mismanagement,

[00:06:23] although,

[00:06:23] truth be told,

[00:06:24] he's probably guilty

[00:06:25] of that as well.

[00:06:26] Um,

[00:06:27] the mismanagement,

[00:06:29] uh,

[00:06:29] by Sheriff McFadden,

[00:06:31] I would submit,

[00:06:32] rises to the level

[00:06:33] of maladministration.

[00:06:34] And there's a reason

[00:06:36] why I use that word.

[00:06:37] It's because if you go

[00:06:39] to the,

[00:06:39] um,

[00:06:40] where is it here?

[00:06:41] The North Carolina

[00:06:41] general statute,

[00:06:45] willful conduct,

[00:06:46] sorry,

[00:06:47] willful misconduct

[00:06:48] or maladministration

[00:06:51] in office.

[00:06:53] That is

[00:06:55] item number two

[00:06:57] in the list of causes

[00:06:59] for which a sheriff

[00:07:01] may be removed

[00:07:03] from office

[00:07:04] by the judge

[00:07:05] of the Superior Court.

[00:07:09] I'm not sure,

[00:07:13] I'm not sure

[00:07:14] what more it takes

[00:07:16] inside

[00:07:17] the court system,

[00:07:19] uh,

[00:07:20] inside the district

[00:07:21] attorney's office.

[00:07:23] Um,

[00:07:26] I'm not sure

[00:07:27] what else it takes.

[00:07:29] I don't know

[00:07:30] what else you need

[00:07:31] to hear.

[00:07:33] I don't know

[00:07:34] how many other

[00:07:34] people need

[00:07:35] to get fired.

[00:07:36] I don't know

[00:07:37] how many more

[00:07:37] inmates need to die.

[00:07:40] I don't know.

[00:07:41] All I can do

[00:07:42] is just keep saying

[00:07:43] this is,

[00:07:44] this is obviously

[00:07:45] not just

[00:07:47] a perception

[00:07:48] from the outside.

[00:07:49] This is obviously

[00:07:51] something going on

[00:07:52] inside the sheriff's

[00:07:53] office.

[00:07:55] Somebody

[00:07:56] who has the

[00:07:57] authority

[00:07:58] to do something

[00:07:59] needs to start

[00:08:00] doing it.

[00:08:02] We heard,

[00:08:03] and I,

[00:08:04] I,

[00:08:04] look,

[00:08:04] whatever you

[00:08:05] think about,

[00:08:06] um,

[00:08:07] you know,

[00:08:08] Donald Trump

[00:08:08] and the,

[00:08:09] uh,

[00:08:10] the attacks

[00:08:11] against Trump

[00:08:11] and Kevin

[00:08:14] Canty has an

[00:08:15] opinion on

[00:08:15] Donald Trump

[00:08:16] and Kevin

[00:08:17] Canty said,

[00:08:17] if I was ever

[00:08:18] in a position

[00:08:18] like that,

[00:08:19] you know,

[00:08:20] I would,

[00:08:21] I would stop

[00:08:22] somebody,

[00:08:22] Democrat or

[00:08:23] Republican,

[00:08:24] I would do

[00:08:24] better,

[00:08:24] right?

[00:08:25] We all like to

[00:08:26] think that we

[00:08:26] would do that

[00:08:27] same thing.

[00:08:27] He did.

[00:08:28] That,

[00:08:29] like,

[00:08:29] he held

[00:08:31] to his

[00:08:32] word on

[00:08:33] that.

[00:08:34] to his

[00:08:35] principle

[00:08:35] on that.

[00:08:37] And that's

[00:08:37] not a small

[00:08:38] thing.

[00:08:40] I don't

[00:08:41] believe the,

[00:08:43] uh,

[00:08:44] the assertion,

[00:08:45] the allegation

[00:08:46] coming from,

[00:08:47] I can only

[00:08:47] believe,

[00:08:48] is McFadden

[00:08:49] that,

[00:08:50] uh,

[00:08:51] that Kevin

[00:08:51] Canty

[00:08:51] said about

[00:08:52] this entire

[00:08:53] plan so he

[00:08:54] could run

[00:08:54] for sheriff.

[00:08:55] He doesn't

[00:08:55] strike me as

[00:08:56] that kind

[00:08:56] of a person.

[00:08:57] His background

[00:08:58] as an

[00:08:59] undercover

[00:08:59] narcotics

[00:09:00] agent seems

[00:09:01] to also

[00:09:01] belie that,

[00:09:02] but I

[00:09:03] don't know.

[00:09:05] But I

[00:09:06] said this

[00:09:07] initially too,

[00:09:08] even if

[00:09:09] that were

[00:09:09] true,

[00:09:10] which I,

[00:09:10] at this

[00:09:10] point,

[00:09:11] do not

[00:09:11] believe that

[00:09:11] to be

[00:09:12] true,

[00:09:12] but even

[00:09:13] if it

[00:09:13] were true,

[00:09:16] McFadden

[00:09:17] pursued him

[00:09:18] and McFadden

[00:09:19] offered him

[00:09:20] the job,

[00:09:20] two different

[00:09:20] jobs actually.

[00:09:23] And even

[00:09:24] if somehow

[00:09:26] or another

[00:09:26] Kevin Canty

[00:09:27] were able

[00:09:28] to manipulate

[00:09:29] McFadden

[00:09:30] into doing

[00:09:31] this,

[00:09:31] to hiring

[00:09:32] him on,

[00:09:33] all so he

[00:09:34] could get

[00:09:35] him out

[00:09:36] and he

[00:09:37] could take

[00:09:37] over,

[00:09:38] even if

[00:09:39] all that

[00:09:39] were the

[00:09:39] case,

[00:09:40] it doesn't

[00:09:41] excuse

[00:09:42] McFadden.

[00:09:44] It doesn't.

[00:09:45] To me,

[00:09:46] they're

[00:09:46] unrelated.

[00:09:47] They are

[00:09:48] really,

[00:09:48] they are

[00:09:49] unrelated

[00:09:49] issues.

[00:09:52] McFadden,

[00:09:53] mal-administration

[00:09:55] in office.

[00:09:56] It seems

[00:09:57] very,

[00:09:57] very clear

[00:09:58] to me.

[00:09:59] I think

[00:10:00] it's pretty

[00:10:00] clear to

[00:10:01] a lot

[00:10:02] of people

[00:10:02] that are

[00:10:03] in the

[00:10:03] orbit

[00:10:04] of the

[00:10:05] Mecklenburg

[00:10:05] County

[00:10:05] Sheriff's

[00:10:06] Office.

[00:10:06] I think

[00:10:07] there are

[00:10:07] a lot

[00:10:07] of people

[00:10:08] that know

[00:10:08] this and

[00:10:10] they're afraid.

[00:10:11] They're afraid

[00:10:12] of the

[00:10:12] political

[00:10:12] repercussions.

[00:10:13] They're afraid

[00:10:14] of alienating

[00:10:14] certain voters.

[00:10:15] They're afraid

[00:10:16] of whatever,

[00:10:17] but they're

[00:10:18] afraid.

[00:10:19] And I

[00:10:20] would just

[00:10:20] say there

[00:10:21] are a lot

[00:10:22] of people

[00:10:22] out here

[00:10:22] that will

[00:10:23] back you.

[00:10:24] They will

[00:10:24] support you

[00:10:25] if you

[00:10:25] do the

[00:10:26] right thing.

[00:10:27] I think

[00:10:29] a lot

[00:10:30] of people

[00:10:30] in America

[00:10:31] are in

[00:10:31] Mecklenburg

[00:10:32] County

[00:10:32] and Charlotte

[00:10:33] I think

[00:10:34] a lot

[00:10:34] of people

[00:10:34] are yearning

[00:10:36] for somebody

[00:10:36] with the

[00:10:38] intestinal

[00:10:38] fortitude

[00:10:39] and the

[00:10:40] principles

[00:10:40] to stand

[00:10:40] up and

[00:10:41] say this

[00:10:41] is wrong

[00:10:42] we're

[00:10:42] stopping

[00:10:42] it.

[00:10:43] For over

[00:10:43] a month

[00:10:44] now I

[00:10:44] have been

[00:10:44] reminding

[00:10:45] you to

[00:10:45] preserve

[00:10:46] your

[00:10:46] precious

[00:10:46] photos

[00:10:47] and

[00:10:47] slides

[00:10:47] films

[00:10:48] and

[00:10:48] tapes

[00:10:49] with

[00:10:49] creative

[00:10:49] video

[00:10:50] based

[00:10:50] in

[00:10:50] Mint

[00:10:50] Hill.

[00:10:51] These

[00:10:51] family

[00:10:52] heirlooms

[00:10:52] hold

[00:10:52] priceless

[00:10:53] stories

[00:10:53] moments

[00:10:54] from years

[00:10:54] past

[00:10:55] that are

[00:10:55] irreplaceable.

[00:10:56] If you've

[00:10:57] thought about

[00:10:57] saving these

[00:10:58] memories before

[00:10:58] they fade away

[00:10:59] you are not

[00:11:00] alone.

[00:11:01] This is

[00:11:01] creative

[00:11:02] videos

[00:11:02] busiest

[00:11:03] season

[00:11:03] and with

[00:11:04] the holidays

[00:11:04] fast

[00:11:04] approaching

[00:11:05] there's

[00:11:05] no better

[00:11:05] time than

[00:11:06] right now

[00:11:07] so you

[00:11:07] need to

[00:11:08] hurry.

[00:11:08] Imagine

[00:11:09] the perfect

[00:11:09] holiday

[00:11:10] gift

[00:11:10] memories

[00:11:11] from past

[00:11:12] family

[00:11:27] a

[00:11:36] your

[00:11:37] memories

[00:11:37] and

[00:11:38] beat

[00:11:38] the

[00:11:56] got

[00:11:56] to

[00:11:56] go.

[00:11:58] And

[00:12:00] this

[00:12:00] is from

[00:12:01] Russ

[00:12:01] who says

[00:12:02] I have

[00:12:02] now heard

[00:12:03] a few

[00:12:03] long-form

[00:12:04] interviews

[00:12:04] with

[00:12:05] Sheriff

[00:12:06] McFadden

[00:12:06] on Jensen's

[00:12:07] show

[00:12:07] and the

[00:12:08] one you

[00:12:09] just

[00:12:09] wrapped up

[00:12:10] with

[00:12:10] Kevin

[00:12:10] Canty.

[00:12:11] Only

[00:12:11] one of

[00:12:11] those

[00:12:12] men

[00:12:12] seems

[00:12:13] reasonable

[00:12:13] and

[00:12:14] connected

[00:12:15] to

[00:12:15] the

[00:12:15] truth.

[00:12:16] I'm

[00:12:17] assuming

[00:12:17] he's

[00:12:18] talking

[00:12:19] about

[00:12:19] Canty

[00:12:20] being

[00:12:20] the

[00:12:20] reasonable

[00:12:21] one.

[00:12:24] Mark

[00:12:24] says

[00:12:25] Pete

[00:12:25] I'm

[00:12:25] pretty

[00:12:25] sure

[00:12:26] you're

[00:12:26] not

[00:12:26] going

[00:12:26] to

[00:12:26] see

[00:12:26] anything

[00:12:26] like

[00:12:27] what

[00:12:27] you

[00:12:27] want

[00:12:27] to

[00:12:27] see

[00:12:27] happen

[00:12:28] in

[00:12:28] the

[00:12:28] Democrat

[00:12:29] run

[00:12:29] city

[00:12:29] like

[00:12:29] Charlotte.

[00:12:30] Well

[00:12:30] I

[00:12:32] don't

[00:12:33] know.

[00:12:33] All

[00:12:33] I

[00:12:33] can

[00:12:34] do

[00:12:34] is

[00:12:35] point

[00:12:35] it

[00:12:35] out

[00:12:35] and

[00:12:37] hopefully

[00:12:38] encourage

[00:12:39] other

[00:12:40] people

[00:12:40] to

[00:12:41] report

[00:12:42] what

[00:12:42] they

[00:12:42] have

[00:12:43] seen

[00:12:43] and

[00:12:44] what

[00:12:44] they

[00:12:44] have

[00:12:44] experienced.

[00:12:46] Otherwise

[00:12:46] you end

[00:12:47] up with

[00:12:47] this

[00:12:48] which

[00:12:48] is

[00:12:48] from

[00:12:49] an

[00:12:49] email

[00:12:49] from

[00:12:50] Tony

[00:12:50] who

[00:12:51] says

[00:12:51] come

[00:12:52] on

[00:12:52] Pete

[00:12:53] you

[00:12:53] don't

[00:12:53] know

[00:12:53] Canty

[00:12:54] any

[00:12:55] better

[00:12:55] than

[00:12:55] the

[00:12:55] sheriff.

[00:12:56] Not

[00:12:57] true.

[00:12:57] how can

[00:12:59] you believe

[00:12:59] him?

[00:13:00] We

[00:13:00] didn't

[00:13:01] learn

[00:13:01] any

[00:13:01] facts

[00:13:02] today

[00:13:02] just

[00:13:03] one

[00:13:03] man's

[00:13:03] opinion.

[00:13:04] It

[00:13:04] means

[00:13:05] nothing.

[00:13:06] Means

[00:13:07] nothing.

[00:13:11] So

[00:13:11] denial

[00:13:11] ain't

[00:13:12] just a

[00:13:12] river

[00:13:12] in

[00:13:13] Egypt.

[00:13:16] As

[00:13:17] I

[00:13:17] said

[00:13:17] I

[00:13:17] have

[00:13:18] never

[00:13:18] spoken

[00:13:19] with

[00:13:19] nor

[00:13:19] met

[00:13:20] the

[00:13:20] sheriff.

[00:13:21] I

[00:13:21] have

[00:13:22] now

[00:13:22] spoken

[00:13:23] with

[00:13:23] and

[00:13:24] met

[00:13:24] Kevin

[00:13:25] Canty.

[00:13:26] So

[00:13:26] I

[00:13:27] do

[00:13:27] actually

[00:13:27] know

[00:13:27] Kevin

[00:13:28] Canty

[00:13:29] better

[00:13:30] than I

[00:13:30] know

[00:13:31] the

[00:13:31] sheriff

[00:13:31] because

[00:13:33] spoiler

[00:13:34] that was

[00:13:35] not my

[00:13:35] first

[00:13:35] conversation

[00:13:36] with him

[00:13:37] in order

[00:13:38] to line

[00:13:38] up the

[00:13:38] interview

[00:13:39] we spoke

[00:13:40] before

[00:13:40] and then

[00:13:41] during the

[00:13:41] breaks

[00:13:42] we speak

[00:13:43] and we

[00:13:44] have very

[00:13:44] long

[00:13:44] breaks

[00:13:45] here

[00:13:45] and so

[00:13:45] I

[00:13:45] got

[00:13:47] almost

[00:13:47] as much

[00:13:48] time

[00:13:48] off air

[00:13:49] with

[00:13:49] Kevin

[00:13:50] as I

[00:13:50] had

[00:13:50] on air

[00:13:51] with him.

[00:13:51] So

[00:13:52] I do

[00:13:52] know him

[00:13:53] I think

[00:13:53] a little

[00:13:54] bit better

[00:13:54] than the

[00:13:54] sheriff

[00:13:55] because

[00:13:55] the only

[00:13:55] thing

[00:13:55] I know

[00:13:56] of the

[00:13:56] sheriff

[00:13:56] is

[00:13:57] what

[00:13:58] I've

[00:13:58] seen

[00:13:58] and what

[00:13:59] I've

[00:13:59] heard

[00:13:59] in his

[00:13:59] interviews

[00:14:00] and public

[00:14:00] appearances

[00:14:02] and none

[00:14:03] of those

[00:14:03] have been

[00:14:04] impressive.

[00:14:05] None

[00:14:05] of those

[00:14:07] have led

[00:14:07] me to

[00:14:08] any

[00:14:09] other

[00:14:09] conclusion

[00:14:09] than what

[00:14:10] I

[00:14:12] and

[00:14:14] Kevin

[00:14:14] Canty

[00:14:15] strikes

[00:14:15] me

[00:14:15] as a

[00:14:15] completely

[00:14:16] different

[00:14:16] type

[00:14:17] of

[00:14:17] person

[00:14:17] than

[00:14:17] Gary

[00:14:18] McFadden.

[00:14:19] All right

[00:14:20] hey real

[00:14:20] quick if

[00:14:20] you would

[00:14:36] higher

[00:14:36] conversion

[00:14:37] rate

[00:14:37] than

[00:14:38] platforms

[00:14:46] that's

[00:14:46] Pete

[00:14:47] at

[00:14:47] the

[00:14:47] Pete

[00:14:48] calendar

[00:14:48] show

[00:14:49] dot com

[00:14:51] one of

[00:14:51] the

[00:14:51] other

[00:14:51] things

[00:14:52] Kevin

[00:14:53] was

[00:14:53] talking

[00:14:54] about

[00:14:54] was

[00:14:55] the

[00:14:56] use

[00:14:56] of

[00:14:56] iPads

[00:14:57] at

[00:14:57] the

[00:14:58] detentions

[00:14:59] at

[00:14:59] the

[00:14:59] jail

[00:15:01] that

[00:15:01] apparently

[00:15:02] inmates

[00:15:02] get

[00:15:03] iPads

[00:15:03] did you

[00:15:04] know

[00:15:04] this

[00:15:04] I

[00:15:04] was

[00:15:04] unaware

[00:15:05] that

[00:15:05] they

[00:15:05] get

[00:15:05] iPads

[00:15:06] even

[00:15:07] after

[00:15:07] they've

[00:15:09] engaged

[00:15:10] in bad

[00:15:10] behavior

[00:15:10] they don't

[00:15:11] lose

[00:15:11] the

[00:15:11] iPads

[00:15:15] and

[00:15:16] so

[00:15:16] when

[00:15:16] some

[00:15:16] of

[00:15:16] the

[00:15:17] detention

[00:15:17] officers

[00:15:18] get

[00:15:18] assaulted

[00:15:20] they are

[00:15:20] then

[00:15:20] accused

[00:15:21] by

[00:15:21] McFadden

[00:15:22] of

[00:15:24] doing

[00:15:24] something

[00:15:25] to lead

[00:15:25] to their

[00:15:25] own

[00:15:26] assault

[00:15:26] like

[00:15:26] well

[00:15:26] what did

[00:15:27] you do

[00:15:28] to get

[00:15:28] shanked

[00:15:30] that's

[00:15:30] the

[00:15:30] response

[00:15:32] what

[00:15:36] and

[00:15:36] then

[00:15:37] they

[00:15:37] don't

[00:15:37] lose

[00:15:37] their

[00:15:37] iPad

[00:15:37] privileges

[00:15:39] which

[00:15:40] I

[00:15:40] think

[00:15:40] is

[00:15:40] probably

[00:15:40] bad

[00:15:41] for

[00:15:41] morale

[00:15:42] probably

[00:15:42] why

[00:15:43] they

[00:15:43] don't

[00:15:43] have

[00:15:43] all

[00:15:43] of

[00:15:43] the

[00:15:45] full

[00:15:46] staff

[00:15:46] but

[00:15:47] as

[00:15:47] I

[00:15:47] understand

[00:15:47] it

[00:15:47] Gary

[00:15:48] has

[00:15:48] the

[00:15:48] great

[00:15:48] idea

[00:15:49] to

[00:15:50] swallow

[00:15:51] up

[00:15:52] the

[00:15:53] Cabarrus

[00:15:54] County

[00:15:54] juvenile

[00:15:55] detention

[00:15:56] facility

[00:15:57] and make

[00:15:57] them all

[00:15:58] Mecklenburg

[00:15:59] employees

[00:16:00] because

[00:16:01] everybody

[00:16:01] wants to

[00:16:02] come work

[00:16:02] for

[00:16:03] the guy

[00:16:03] who uses

[00:16:04] racial

[00:16:04] slurs

[00:16:05] and

[00:16:05] treats

[00:16:06] his

[00:16:06] commstat

[00:16:06] meetings

[00:16:07] as

[00:16:07] public

[00:16:07] floggings

[00:16:08] but

[00:16:09] anyway

[00:16:10] the

[00:16:11] use

[00:16:11] of

[00:16:11] technology

[00:16:12] not

[00:16:13] just

[00:16:14] in

[00:16:14] the

[00:16:14] prisons

[00:16:14] but

[00:16:14] also

[00:16:15] in

[00:16:15] the

[00:16:16] K-12

[00:16:17] government

[00:16:18] schools

[00:16:19] which

[00:16:20] I guess

[00:16:20] is kind

[00:16:20] of the

[00:16:20] same

[00:16:21] thing

[00:16:22] I kid

[00:16:23] I kid

[00:16:24] schools

[00:16:26] there was

[00:16:27] actually

[00:16:27] a big

[00:16:28] write up

[00:16:29] at the

[00:16:29] New York

[00:16:29] Times

[00:16:30] how student

[00:16:32] phones

[00:16:32] and social

[00:16:33] media

[00:16:33] are fueling

[00:16:34] fights

[00:16:35] in schools

[00:16:37] very

[00:16:38] very lengthy

[00:16:38] story

[00:16:40] and

[00:16:41] some of

[00:16:42] the highlights

[00:16:42] here

[00:16:43] they say

[00:16:44] across

[00:16:44] the

[00:16:44] United

[00:16:44] States

[00:16:45] technology

[00:16:45] centered

[00:16:46] on

[00:16:46] cell

[00:16:47] phones

[00:16:47] in the

[00:16:48] form

[00:16:48] of

[00:16:48] text

[00:16:49] messages

[00:16:49] videos

[00:16:50] and

[00:16:50] social

[00:16:50] media

[00:16:50] has

[00:16:51] increasingly

[00:16:52] fueled

[00:16:52] and

[00:16:52] sometimes

[00:16:53] intensified

[00:16:54] campus

[00:16:55] brawls

[00:16:56] disrupting

[00:16:57] schools

[00:16:58] and derailing

[00:16:58] learning

[00:16:59] the school

[00:17:00] fight

[00:17:00] videos

[00:17:01] then

[00:17:02] often

[00:17:03] spark

[00:17:03] new

[00:17:03] cycles

[00:17:04] of

[00:17:04] student

[00:17:05] cyber

[00:17:06] bullying

[00:17:06] verbal

[00:17:07] aggression

[00:17:08] and

[00:17:09] violence

[00:17:13] homeschooling

[00:17:13] how is

[00:17:14] your kid

[00:17:15] going to

[00:17:15] get

[00:17:16] socialized

[00:17:17] if they

[00:17:17] don't

[00:17:18] go to

[00:17:18] public

[00:17:18] schools

[00:17:19] I don't

[00:17:19] know

[00:17:20] how are

[00:17:20] they not

[00:17:20] going to

[00:17:21] get

[00:17:21] shanked

[00:17:21] right

[00:17:22] these

[00:17:22] are

[00:17:23] life's

[00:17:23] lessons

[00:17:23] that we

[00:17:24] need

[00:17:24] to

[00:17:24] teach

[00:17:25] the

[00:17:25] children

[00:17:27] a

[00:17:27] New

[00:17:27] York

[00:17:28] Times

[00:17:28] review

[00:17:28] of

[00:17:43] parents

[00:17:43] and

[00:17:43] researchers

[00:17:44] found

[00:17:45] a

[00:17:45] pattern

[00:17:45] of

[00:17:46] middle

[00:17:46] and

[00:17:46] high

[00:17:47] school

[00:17:47] students

[00:17:47] exploiting

[00:17:49] phones

[00:17:49] and social

[00:17:50] media

[00:17:51] to

[00:17:51] arrange

[00:17:52] provoke

[00:17:54] capture

[00:17:56] and spread

[00:17:57] footage

[00:17:57] of brutal

[00:17:58] beatings

[00:17:59] among their

[00:17:59] peers

[00:18:00] in several

[00:18:01] cases

[00:18:01] students

[00:18:02] later

[00:18:03] died

[00:18:03] from the

[00:18:04] injuries

[00:18:04] technology

[00:18:06] has

[00:18:07] increasingly

[00:18:08] fostered

[00:18:09] and amplified

[00:18:10] every stage

[00:18:12] of this

[00:18:12] aggression

[00:18:13] the

[00:18:14] arguments

[00:18:15] often

[00:18:16] begin

[00:18:16] with

[00:18:17] student

[00:18:17] cyber

[00:18:18] bullying

[00:18:19] even

[00:18:21] perceived

[00:18:22] online

[00:18:22] disrespect

[00:18:23] among

[00:18:23] friends

[00:18:24] right

[00:18:25] you're in

[00:18:26] a

[00:18:26] group

[00:18:27] chat

[00:18:28] and

[00:18:29] you use

[00:18:31] the wrong

[00:18:31] emoji

[00:18:32] or you

[00:18:33] say something

[00:18:33] that's

[00:18:34] misinterpreted

[00:18:35] which is

[00:18:35] very easy

[00:18:36] to do

[00:18:36] because

[00:18:37] like

[00:18:37] today's

[00:18:38] kids

[00:18:38] they speak

[00:18:38] in like

[00:18:39] single

[00:18:39] letters

[00:18:40] it's

[00:18:40] very

[00:18:41] weird

[00:18:41] like

[00:18:41] we

[00:18:42] are

[00:18:42] reverting

[00:18:42] back

[00:18:42] to

[00:18:43] hieroglyphics

[00:18:45] so

[00:18:46] this

[00:18:46] then

[00:18:46] will

[00:18:46] prompt

[00:18:47] in-person

[00:18:48] squabbles

[00:18:49] during

[00:18:49] school

[00:18:50] and

[00:18:51] then

[00:18:51] classmates

[00:18:52] start

[00:18:52] filming

[00:18:52] and

[00:18:54] that

[00:18:54] puts

[00:18:54] pressure

[00:18:54] on

[00:18:55] the

[00:18:55] students

[00:18:55] that

[00:18:56] are

[00:18:56] quarreling

[00:18:56] the

[00:18:57] squabbling

[00:18:57] students

[00:18:58] that

[00:18:59] puts

[00:18:59] pressure

[00:18:59] on

[00:18:59] them

[00:18:59] to

[00:19:00] duke

[00:19:00] it

[00:19:00] out

[00:19:02] students

[00:19:02] then

[00:19:10] the

[00:19:10] victims

[00:19:10] the

[00:19:11] ones

[00:19:12] who

[00:19:12] lost

[00:19:13] or

[00:19:13] the

[00:19:14] ones

[00:19:14] who

[00:19:15] didn't

[00:19:15] show

[00:19:15] out

[00:19:16] correctly

[00:19:16] or

[00:19:17] whatever

[00:19:17] the

[00:19:18] slang

[00:19:19] is

[00:19:19] and that

[00:19:20] then

[00:19:20] triggers

[00:19:21] more

[00:19:21] fights

[00:19:23] in

[00:19:24] some

[00:19:24] cases

[00:19:24] the

[00:19:26] violence

[00:19:26] cycle

[00:19:27] has

[00:19:27] overwhelmed

[00:19:28] schools

[00:19:28] some

[00:19:29] districts

[00:19:29] now

[00:19:29] face

[00:19:30] lawsuits

[00:19:31] for

[00:19:31] negligence

[00:19:32] from

[00:19:33] parents

[00:19:33] and

[00:19:34] other

[00:19:35] schools

[00:19:35] are

[00:19:36] seeing

[00:19:36] an

[00:19:37] exodus

[00:19:37] of

[00:19:37] teachers

[00:19:38] no

[00:19:39] I

[00:19:39] thought

[00:19:39] that's

[00:19:40] about

[00:19:40] pay

[00:19:40] only

[00:19:40] wait

[00:19:41] what

[00:19:42] are

[00:19:43] you

[00:19:43] saying

[00:19:43] that

[00:19:44] working

[00:19:44] conditions

[00:19:45] might

[00:19:45] be

[00:19:47] a

[00:19:47] factor

[00:19:47] in

[00:19:48] whether

[00:19:49] or

[00:19:54] that's

[00:19:54] true

[00:19:55] if

[00:19:56] that

[00:19:56] is

[00:19:56] true

[00:19:57] man

[00:19:57] that

[00:19:58] adds

[00:19:58] a

[00:19:58] whole

[00:19:59] different

[00:19:59] dynamic

[00:19:59] to

[00:20:00] the

[00:20:00] teacher

[00:20:01] retention

[00:20:01] argument

[00:20:02] right

[00:20:02] because

[00:20:03] I've

[00:20:04] been

[00:20:04] reliably

[00:20:05] informed

[00:20:05] that

[00:20:05] it

[00:20:05] is

[00:20:06] simply

[00:20:06] a

[00:20:06] matter

[00:20:06] of

[00:20:06] dollars

[00:20:08] show

[00:20:09] me

[00:20:09] the

[00:20:09] money

[00:20:09] and

[00:20:09] that's

[00:20:10] it

[00:20:11] no

[00:20:11] of

[00:20:11] course

[00:20:12] not

[00:20:12] working

[00:20:13] conditions

[00:20:13] is a

[00:20:14] huge

[00:20:14] part

[00:20:14] of

[00:20:14] it

[00:20:15] you

[00:20:15] know

[00:20:16] discipline

[00:20:16] just

[00:20:17] like

[00:20:17] this

[00:20:17] general

[00:20:18] heading

[00:20:18] of

[00:20:18] discipline

[00:20:20] that

[00:20:20] if

[00:20:20] you've

[00:20:21] got

[00:20:21] teachers

[00:20:21] that

[00:20:21] are

[00:20:22] going

[00:20:22] into

[00:20:22] brawl

[00:20:23] zones

[00:20:23] every

[00:20:24] single

[00:20:24] day

[00:20:24] that's

[00:20:25] not

[00:20:25] why

[00:20:25] they

[00:20:26] wanted

[00:20:26] to

[00:20:26] become

[00:20:26] a

[00:20:27] teacher

[00:20:28] dozens

[00:20:29] of

[00:20:29] districts

[00:20:29] have

[00:20:30] sued

[00:20:30] social

[00:20:30] media

[00:20:31] firms

[00:20:31] saying

[00:20:32] that

[00:20:32] the

[00:20:32] platforms

[00:20:32] are

[00:20:33] addictive

[00:20:33] they've

[00:20:34] got

[00:20:34] features

[00:20:34] there

[00:20:34] that

[00:20:35] cause

[00:20:35] compulsive

[00:20:36] student

[00:20:36] use

[00:20:36] that

[00:20:37] disrupts

[00:20:38] learning

[00:20:38] and

[00:20:38] burdens

[00:20:39] the

[00:20:39] school

[00:20:39] resources

[00:20:41] here's

[00:20:42] the

[00:20:42] thing

[00:20:42] even

[00:20:43] if

[00:20:45] the

[00:20:45] lawsuit

[00:20:46] has

[00:20:47] merit

[00:20:47] even

[00:20:48] if

[00:20:48] you

[00:20:48] prove

[00:20:49] this

[00:20:49] to

[00:20:49] be

[00:20:50] the

[00:20:50] case

[00:20:50] and

[00:20:51] even

[00:20:51] if

[00:20:51] the

[00:20:52] schools

[00:20:52] win

[00:20:53] the

[00:20:54] lawsuits

[00:20:54] what

[00:20:57] do

[00:20:57] you

[00:20:57] get

[00:20:57] money

[00:20:59] for

[00:21:00] what

[00:21:00] what

[00:21:01] are

[00:21:01] you

[00:21:01] going

[00:21:01] to

[00:21:01] do

[00:21:01] with

[00:21:01] that

[00:21:03] pay

[00:21:04] teachers

[00:21:05] more

[00:21:05] money

[00:21:05] obviously

[00:21:06] that's

[00:21:06] the

[00:21:06] answer

[00:21:06] to

[00:21:07] everything

[00:21:07] no

[00:21:07] I

[00:21:08] kid

[00:21:08] no

[00:21:09] we

[00:21:09] would

[00:21:09] put

[00:21:10] in

[00:21:10] programs

[00:21:10] and

[00:21:12] counselors

[00:21:13] maybe

[00:21:14] maybe

[00:21:15] a

[00:21:16] school

[00:21:16] resource

[00:21:16] officer

[00:21:17] maybe

[00:21:17] depending

[00:21:18] on the

[00:21:18] jurisdiction

[00:21:18] and whether

[00:21:19] or not

[00:21:19] they hate

[00:21:20] police

[00:21:20] officers

[00:21:21] but

[00:21:21] like

[00:21:22] we'll

[00:21:23] we'll

[00:21:24] just

[00:21:24] throw

[00:21:24] more

[00:21:24] money

[00:21:25] at

[00:21:25] them

[00:21:25] we'll

[00:21:25] win

[00:21:26] these

[00:21:26] lawsuits

[00:21:26] we'll

[00:21:27] get

[00:21:27] Facebook

[00:21:27] to

[00:21:28] give us

[00:21:28] a couple

[00:21:29] million

[00:21:29] dollars

[00:21:30] per

[00:21:30] school

[00:21:30] and

[00:21:31] then

[00:21:31] you know

[00:21:32] we'll

[00:21:33] set up

[00:21:33] some

[00:21:34] violence

[00:21:35] interruption

[00:21:35] program

[00:21:36] or something

[00:21:37] teach

[00:21:38] kids

[00:21:38] think

[00:21:40] again

[00:21:41] remember

[00:21:42] that

[00:21:42] campaign

[00:21:42] whatever

[00:21:43] happened

[00:21:43] to

[00:21:43] that

[00:21:43] campaign

[00:21:44] that

[00:21:45] was

[00:21:45] the

[00:21:45] big

[00:21:45] campaign

[00:21:45] huge

[00:21:46] it

[00:21:46] was

[00:21:46] massive

[00:21:47] big

[00:21:47] campaign

[00:21:48] in the

[00:21:48] Charlotte

[00:21:48] area

[00:21:48] think

[00:21:49] again

[00:21:50] which

[00:21:51] was

[00:21:51] designed

[00:21:51] to

[00:21:53] tell

[00:21:54] people

[00:21:54] don't

[00:21:55] commit

[00:21:55] gun

[00:21:56] crimes

[00:21:57] I think

[00:21:57] especially

[00:21:58] if you

[00:21:58] are

[00:22:00] if

[00:22:00] you're

[00:22:01] a

[00:22:01] convicted

[00:22:01] felon

[00:22:02] or

[00:22:02] something

[00:22:03] I know

[00:22:04] you're

[00:22:04] thinking

[00:22:05] about

[00:22:05] committing

[00:22:05] a gun

[00:22:05] crime

[00:22:06] but

[00:22:06] think

[00:22:06] again

[00:22:08] I don't

[00:22:09] know

[00:22:09] if

[00:22:09] they

[00:22:09] measured

[00:22:10] that

[00:22:10] success

[00:22:10] that

[00:22:11] like

[00:22:11] that

[00:22:11] was

[00:22:11] what

[00:22:11] my

[00:22:12] big

[00:22:13] question

[00:22:13] on the

[00:22:13] campaign

[00:22:14] was

[00:22:14] about

[00:22:14] how

[00:22:15] are

[00:22:15] you

[00:22:15] tracking

[00:22:15] success

[00:22:17] so

[00:22:17] I guess

[00:22:18] it was

[00:22:18] a success

[00:22:19] because

[00:22:19] we never

[00:22:19] heard

[00:22:20] anything

[00:22:20] else

[00:22:21] about

[00:22:21] it

[00:22:21] anyway

[00:22:22] students

[00:22:23] have

[00:22:23] used

[00:22:24] social

[00:22:24] networks

[00:22:25] to

[00:22:25] plan

[00:22:25] and

[00:22:26] incite

[00:22:26] school

[00:22:27] violence

[00:22:27] since

[00:22:28] the

[00:22:28] 2000s

[00:22:29] over

[00:22:30] the

[00:22:30] past

[00:22:30] decade

[00:22:30] higher

[00:22:31] quality

[00:22:32] phone

[00:22:32] cameras

[00:22:32] and

[00:22:33] new

[00:22:33] social

[00:22:33] media

[00:22:34] features

[00:22:34] like

[00:22:35] Instagram

[00:22:35] live

[00:22:36] and

[00:22:36] reels

[00:22:37] that's

[00:22:38] the

[00:22:38] I think

[00:22:38] those are

[00:22:40] is

[00:22:41] Facebook

[00:22:41] I

[00:22:41] think

[00:22:44] these

[00:22:45] have

[00:22:45] helped

[00:22:46] spur

[00:22:46] teenagers

[00:22:47] to

[00:22:47] mass

[00:22:48] produce

[00:22:51] including

[00:22:52] their

[00:22:54] there

[00:22:55] are

[00:22:55] dedicated

[00:22:56] fight

[00:22:57] video

[00:22:58] accounts

[00:22:59] that

[00:23:00] on

[00:23:01] Instagram

[00:23:01] and

[00:23:02] TikTok

[00:23:02] and

[00:23:02] they

[00:23:02] use

[00:23:03] names

[00:23:03] or

[00:23:03] initials

[00:23:04] of

[00:23:05] and

[00:23:05] middle

[00:23:06] schools

[00:23:07] during

[00:23:08] the

[00:23:08] pandemic

[00:23:09] many

[00:23:10] students

[00:23:10] became

[00:23:10] more

[00:23:11] reliant

[00:23:11] on

[00:23:12] messaging

[00:23:13] and

[00:23:14] social

[00:23:14] apps

[00:23:15] and

[00:23:16] less

[00:23:16] comfortable

[00:23:20] see

[00:23:21] this

[00:23:21] is

[00:23:21] what

[00:23:22] I

[00:23:22] mean

[00:23:22] when

[00:23:22] I

[00:23:22] say

[00:23:23] what's

[00:23:23] on

[00:23:23] the

[00:23:24] other

[00:23:24] side

[00:23:24] of

[00:23:24] the

[00:23:24] ledger

[00:23:25] when

[00:23:25] we

[00:23:25] are

[00:23:26] doing

[00:23:26] an

[00:23:26] accounting

[00:23:26] of

[00:23:27] the

[00:23:27] COVID

[00:23:27] response

[00:23:29] this

[00:23:29] goes

[00:23:30] on

[00:23:30] the

[00:23:30] side

[00:23:30] of

[00:23:31] the

[00:23:31] folks

[00:23:32] unintended

[00:23:33] consequences

[00:23:35] right

[00:23:35] ramifications

[00:23:36] of the

[00:23:37] decisions

[00:23:38] you

[00:23:38] didn't

[00:23:38] get

[00:23:39] everything

[00:23:39] right

[00:23:40] in

[00:23:41] the

[00:23:41] response

[00:23:41] it

[00:23:42] is

[00:23:42] imperative

[00:23:42] that

[00:23:43] we

[00:23:43] have

[00:23:43] an

[00:23:43] accounting

[00:23:44] for

[00:23:44] what

[00:23:45] we

[00:23:45] got

[00:23:45] wrong

[00:23:46] and

[00:23:47] by

[00:23:47] we

[00:23:47] I

[00:23:47] mean

[00:23:48] political

[00:23:48] leaders

[00:23:49] that

[00:23:49] made

[00:23:50] these

[00:23:50] decisions

[00:23:50] and

[00:23:51] then

[00:23:52] mandated

[00:23:52] them

[00:23:53] on

[00:23:53] us

[00:23:54] school

[00:23:55] closures

[00:23:56] for this

[00:23:56] kind

[00:23:56] of

[00:23:57] thing

[00:23:57] should

[00:23:57] never

[00:23:58] be

[00:23:58] entertained

[00:23:59] ever

[00:23:59] again

[00:24:00] I

[00:24:01] have

[00:24:01] not

[00:24:01] seen

[00:24:02] my

[00:24:03] good

[00:24:03] friend

[00:24:03] raise

[00:24:05] farewell

[00:24:06] speech

[00:24:08] Roy

[00:24:08] Cooper

[00:24:09] gave

[00:24:09] his

[00:24:09] farewell

[00:24:09] speech

[00:24:10] I

[00:24:14] I

[00:24:15] did

[00:24:15] not

[00:24:15] have

[00:24:15] time

[00:24:16] to

[00:24:16] watch

[00:24:16] it

[00:24:16] but

[00:24:17] I

[00:24:17] do

[00:24:17] intend

[00:24:17] to

[00:24:18] watch

[00:24:18] it

[00:24:18] so

[00:24:19] you

[00:24:19] don't

[00:24:19] have

[00:24:20] to

[00:24:21] you're

[00:24:22] welcome

[00:24:22] so

[00:24:23] we'll

[00:24:23] cover

[00:24:23] that

[00:24:23] tomorrow

[00:24:24] because

[00:24:24] I

[00:24:24] didn't

[00:24:25] have

[00:24:25] time

[00:24:25] to

[00:24:26] do

[00:24:26] it

[00:24:28] obviously

[00:24:28] before

[00:24:29] the

[00:24:29] program

[00:24:30] started

[00:24:30] we were

[00:24:31] getting

[00:24:31] ready

[00:24:32] for the

[00:24:32] interview

[00:24:32] with

[00:24:32] Kevin

[00:24:33] Canty

[00:24:33] so

[00:24:33] didn't

[00:24:34] have

[00:24:34] time

[00:24:34] to

[00:24:34] watch

[00:24:34] it

[00:24:35] as

[00:24:35] it

[00:24:35] was

[00:24:35] occurring

[00:24:40] here's

[00:24:40] a

[00:24:40] message

[00:24:41] from

[00:24:42] Mama

[00:24:42] Tooted

[00:24:43] my

[00:24:44] husband's

[00:24:45] sister

[00:24:47] was

[00:24:47] a

[00:24:48] teacher

[00:24:48] and

[00:24:49] just

[00:24:49] left

[00:24:50] the

[00:24:50] profession

[00:24:50] last

[00:24:51] year

[00:24:51] when

[00:24:52] we

[00:24:52] asked

[00:24:52] her

[00:24:52] why

[00:24:53] she

[00:24:53] was

[00:24:53] a

[00:24:53] teacher

[00:24:54] for

[00:24:54] over

[00:24:54] 20

[00:24:54] years

[00:24:55] when

[00:24:56] we

[00:24:56] asked

[00:24:56] her

[00:24:56] why

[00:24:57] she

[00:24:57] left

[00:24:57] she

[00:24:57] said

[00:24:58] her

[00:24:58] number

[00:24:58] one

[00:24:58] reason

[00:25:00] students

[00:25:00] with

[00:25:01] cell

[00:25:01] phones

[00:25:01] it

[00:25:02] was

[00:25:02] impossible

[00:25:03] to

[00:25:03] enforce

[00:25:04] students

[00:25:05] refused

[00:25:05] to

[00:25:05] comply

[00:25:06] parent

[00:25:06] interference

[00:25:07] kept

[00:25:08] them

[00:25:08] in

[00:25:08] the

[00:25:08] classrooms

[00:25:09] and

[00:25:09] grades

[00:25:10] went

[00:25:10] down

[00:25:10] because

[00:25:10] of

[00:25:11] it

[00:25:11] which

[00:25:11] affected

[00:25:12] her

[00:25:12] performance

[00:25:13] reviews

[00:25:13] she

[00:25:14] could

[00:25:14] put up

[00:25:14] with a

[00:25:15] lot

[00:25:15] of

[00:25:15] things

[00:25:15] over

[00:25:15] the

[00:25:15] year

[00:25:16] but

[00:25:16] this

[00:25:17] has

[00:25:17] been

[00:25:17] the

[00:25:17] worst

[00:25:18] causing

[00:25:18] her

[00:25:19] to

[00:25:19] leave

[00:25:19] altogether

[00:25:23] that

[00:25:23] is

[00:25:23] not

[00:25:24] the

[00:25:24] first

[00:25:24] time

[00:25:24] I

[00:25:24] have

[00:25:25] heard

[00:25:25] that

[00:25:27] similar

[00:25:27] experience

[00:25:28] New York

[00:25:29] Times

[00:25:30] with

[00:25:30] this

[00:25:30] big

[00:25:31] write-up

[00:25:32] talking

[00:25:32] about

[00:25:33] the

[00:25:33] pandemic

[00:25:33] but

[00:25:34] also

[00:25:34] the

[00:25:34] technology

[00:25:36] that

[00:25:37] during

[00:25:37] the

[00:25:37] pandemic

[00:25:37] kids

[00:25:38] became

[00:25:38] detached

[00:25:39] they

[00:25:39] relied

[00:25:40] on

[00:25:40] social

[00:25:40] media

[00:25:41] more

[00:25:41] they

[00:25:42] were

[00:25:42] less

[00:25:42] comfortable

[00:25:43] with

[00:25:43] real

[00:25:43] life

[00:25:44] interactions

[00:25:45] principals

[00:25:46] and

[00:25:47] teachers

[00:25:47] said

[00:25:48] some

[00:25:48] students

[00:25:48] also

[00:25:48] developed

[00:25:49] difficulties

[00:25:50] controlling

[00:25:51] their

[00:25:51] emotions

[00:25:52] a

[00:25:52] mental

[00:25:52] health

[00:25:53] issue

[00:25:53] that

[00:25:53] psychologists

[00:25:54] call

[00:25:54] emotional

[00:25:56] dysregulation

[00:25:57] or as I

[00:25:58] call it

[00:25:59] acting

[00:26:00] like a

[00:26:00] jerk

[00:26:00] in

[00:26:01] 2021

[00:26:02] as

[00:26:03] many

[00:26:03] districts

[00:26:03] reopened

[00:26:04] for

[00:26:04] in-person

[00:26:05] learning

[00:26:05] some

[00:26:06] schools

[00:26:06] saw

[00:26:06] increases

[00:26:07] in

[00:26:08] student

[00:26:08] fights

[00:26:08] aggression

[00:26:09] and

[00:26:10] cyber

[00:26:11] bullying

[00:26:11] educators

[00:26:13] and

[00:26:13] police

[00:26:13] social

[00:26:14] media

[00:26:15] influencers

[00:26:17] and

[00:26:18] TV

[00:26:19] newscasts

[00:26:20] often

[00:26:21] broadcast

[00:26:21] school

[00:26:22] fight

[00:26:22] videos

[00:26:23] distressing

[00:26:24] students

[00:26:25] and causing

[00:26:25] further

[00:26:26] chaos

[00:26:27] this is

[00:26:28] another

[00:26:28] part of

[00:26:29] the

[00:26:29] problem

[00:26:29] and

[00:26:30] I

[00:26:32] recognize

[00:26:33] that

[00:26:33] as a

[00:26:34] radio

[00:26:34] guy

[00:26:35] I

[00:26:35] don't

[00:26:35] have

[00:26:36] to

[00:26:36] make

[00:26:36] this

[00:26:36] decision

[00:26:37] I

[00:26:38] don't

[00:26:38] have

[00:26:38] to

[00:26:38] worry

[00:26:39] about

[00:26:40] putting

[00:26:41] up

[00:26:41] a

[00:26:41] video

[00:26:41] image

[00:26:42] to

[00:26:42] tell

[00:26:42] the

[00:26:43] story

[00:26:43] about

[00:26:44] the

[00:26:44] school

[00:26:44] fight

[00:26:47] but

[00:26:47] I

[00:26:48] can

[00:26:48] tell

[00:26:48] you

[00:26:48] that

[00:26:49] I

[00:26:49] don't

[00:26:49] share

[00:26:49] those

[00:26:50] videos

[00:26:50] when

[00:26:51] I

[00:26:51] see

[00:26:51] them

[00:26:51] on

[00:26:51] social

[00:26:52] media

[00:26:53] I

[00:26:54] try

[00:26:54] to

[00:26:54] scroll

[00:26:54] right

[00:26:55] past

[00:26:55] them

[00:26:55] I

[00:26:56] try

[00:26:56] not

[00:26:56] to

[00:26:56] watch

[00:26:56] them

[00:26:57] I

[00:26:57] don't

[00:26:57] want

[00:26:57] them

[00:26:57] to

[00:26:58] get

[00:26:58] any

[00:26:59] kind

[00:26:59] of

[00:26:59] engagement

[00:26:59] data

[00:27:00] from

[00:27:00] me

[00:27:01] on

[00:27:01] those

[00:27:01] types

[00:27:02] of

[00:27:02] videos

[00:27:03] and

[00:27:03] it

[00:27:03] seems

[00:27:03] like

[00:27:04] that's

[00:27:05] all

[00:27:05] I'm

[00:27:05] getting

[00:27:05] and

[00:27:06] you know

[00:27:07] now

[00:27:08] the

[00:27:08] companies

[00:27:08] are

[00:27:09] like

[00:27:09] we

[00:27:09] totally

[00:27:09] take

[00:27:10] this

[00:27:10] stuff

[00:27:10] down

[00:27:12] we

[00:27:12] don't

[00:27:16] we

[00:27:16] all

[00:27:16] know

[00:27:16] that's

[00:27:17] not

[00:27:17] true

[00:27:17] it's
