06:03 "The vast, vast, vast majority are good. They do it for the right reasons. Instead, we've allowed the media and social media to create this narrative is that there's these kinds of things going on that's really not."
08:05 "The same people who call for defund the police are the same ones calling the police saying, well, why is crime going up? Nobody loves the police when they're behind them. They want the police behind somebody else."

22:02 "You cannot allow the bad ideas to perpetrate. It's constant vigilance. We are a nation of laws. We are a free society. We only stay that way when there is respect. If you don't like the law, elect people, change the law, but until then you don't get to freelance."
