so let me get this straight you're
waving the Mexican flag and you're
waving it with pride you're waving it in
the United States the country you're
trying to stay in the country you don't
want to leave that seems normal to you
that seems logical that's not stupid
at all none of that's stupid
[Music]
all right welcome to Quick Show my name
is Greg Matson and I am your host in
this episode we are not just talking
about protest we're talking about fire
both both actual and symbolic fire in
the burning streets of Los Angeles and
there's one question that I would ask
why are protesters waving the Mexican
flag in the middle of an American
immigration riot downtown Los Angeles
has entered its fourth day of chaos
national Guard troops are occupying
intersections along with the Marine
Corps there have been scooters hurled at
police vans molotov cocktails tossed
like party favors whimo AI taxis torched
fireworks stones and of course fists
fill the air the soft description for
this is civil disobedience the reality
is it's a siege the 101 freeway is
flooded with demonstrators
agitators and Los Angeles doesn't look
like the city of angels anymore it looks
like the demons have broke through the
pavement this episode is brought to you

and look at a video I put up there for
Cardio Miracle and what it has done for
me all right so while all this is going
on what does the media have to say
here's MSNBC's John Hyleman he says
there wasn't anything like a riot
happening here cnn's Dana Bash says it's
not a real riot and ABC 7's Mark Brown
says just a bunch of people having fun
watching cars burn this is how they
describe Molotov cocktails burning AI
taxis that's the tone when US Marines
must be deployed to try and calm things
down of course they may be walking into
an absolute trap here and the thing to
really understand with this this is not
a peaceful protest that's gone wrong
these things are planned and some of the
organizations that plan them fully plan
on violence these are coordinated acts
of left-wing rage masquerading as of
course justice and the most glaring
images from what we've seen so far are
two things the fire taxis and the
Mexican flag being waved this makes me
sick i've lived in Mexico i have dozens
of good Mexican friends in Mexico and in
the US and to see the Mexican flag being
waved for this for some social justice
initiative turning it into an emblem of
hard leftwing rage is absolutely
heartbreaking to me i have a Mexican
flag i have shirts with a Mexican flag
on it i love Mexico we go there all the
time i did business in Mexico and I
served my mission in Mexico i've been
fully immersed in their culture i have
lived as a Mexican in Mexico and to see
this is just it's sickening and it's so
interesting because these protests air
quotes here are all the same they've got
some kind of flag that they're waving
look you've got the LGBTQ flag the pride
flag you've got the Palestinian flag and
now the Mexican flag being used what you
don't see is the American flag and what
are the optics like when you're waving a
Mexican flag at an at a United States
immigration protest
those that hate Trump those that are in
initiating these things and there are
those that are initiating them and
organizing them are giving reason to
others who may be on the fence about
these issues to say maybe Trump was
right this looks more and more like an
invasion it It's just very very bizarre
what it looks like is "Yeah we love the
benefits of America but we reject your
nation." They're waving foreign flags
over scorched pavement and in doing so
they may have given Trump his greatest
political gift so far of his presidency
and I love this from Gavin Newsome where
he says "This is a manufactured crisis."
Well it is manufactured but it's not
manufactured by the troops or the
National Guard or by Trump he didn't
organize this and now that those
organizations that have organized Los
Angeles their Los Angeles rights are now
organizing beyond that already here is
an image in New York right with a
headline from CNN saying "Meanwhile in
New York here's a look at who is
protesting." According to a law
enforcement official this is going to
start sprouting up everywhere and as if
this was all just spontaneous people
grab came together in Los Angeles all of
a sudden because they all decided to go
downtown to the same place
and just show up because they were
protesting the way ICE was handling
things granted there's probably a lot of
people that eventually show up to these
events because they hear about it after
it's already happening but these are
fully orchestrated and probably have
been planned for months i had an online
discussion with someone on Facebook and
they're saying "Yeah why are they
sending troops there's hardly been any
vandalism there's hardly been no one's
been killed there's a few AI taxis and
some cars that have had stones thrown at
them." Look what has the precedent been
when these organizations have gone out
and put these events together look at
what happened in Seattle look at what
happened in the BLM protests do we
forget that do we allow all of that to
happen again small businesses torched
windows busted the businesses looted of
all their products large buildings being
set on fire people beaten people killed
don't act as if this hasn't happened
before we know what the results are and
what we really need to do is hold the
organizations that put these things
together responsible responsible for the
damage responsible for the thievery
responsible for any casualties
they need to be held responsible these
things are not meant to have unity in
any way they are meant to create
division you don't throw fireworks at
police and call it expression you don't
hurl bricks and then wave foreign flags
and say we're going to have unity here
it's a Mottton Bailey play by the left
the news media which is always complicit
in these things they love this kind of
stuff they get a lot of eyeballs and
it's following their agenda they're
coming back and saying "Well there's not
this is all peaceful it's not a
problem." But you go and look on the
ground and you see the images and you
say "Wait a minute here something gives
even Newsweek in their headline here to
their article on June 9th says LA riots
how Mexican flag photos are a gift to
Donald Trump it's absolute confusion the
strategy is horrible in terms of optics
but it's very effective from their
organization imagine the same problem in
LA sprouting up in New York sprouting up
in Chicago and other large cities across
the country then they will agitate and
invite the military the National Guard
the police to intervene or try to
intervene and as that happens the media
will turn in their complicity and say
"Look look who the bad guy is here look
who really the problem is here it's the
police defund the police may rise up
again." I saw one guy I was having a
conversation with on I wouldn't even
call it a conversation whatever it was
but I saw his personal Facebook page and
of course he's got f the police up there
from this protest find where the money
is coming from who is funding this who
is organizing it what are their plans
and prosecute
peaceful protest is one thing we believe
in that these organizations are taking
advantage of something because they're
going so far beyond what a peaceful
protest is and for the left it just
builds this precedent of we will get
what we want by any means necessary i
really hope that the Mexican flag as
it's raised anywhere and I've seen the
Mexican flag obviously all over the
place in people's homes in Mexico in in
national memorial sites all over Mexico
on their Independence Day even i'm happy
to even wear a shirt i sympathize with
the Mexican Mexican people on many
things they're such a a a warm-hearted
good people but if this continues that
Mexican flag when it's raised it's going
to be like the Palestinian flag it's
going to become political in the US it's
going to represent not Mexico not the
wonderful Mexican people but it will
represent social justice it will be
appropriated by these nefarious
organizations one of the worst things
about the flag is that it implies that
all Mexicans are on board with this it
is an appropriation of something that is
supposed to represent people that are on
a spectrum in their political opinions
and approach and they love doing this as
if all gay people support the pride
movement as if those that are pro-choice
represent all women that's what they
imply isn't it odd that 44% of Latinos
in the United States citizens voted for
Trump with the number one issue them
knowing that the number one issue that
he ran on was immigration and yet he had
a record number of Latinos voting for a
Republican i mean why do you think that
is maybe we ought to talk about that but
no they wave a flag and pretend like all
Mexicans are involved with this so let
me get this straight just so I could
clarify it you don't want to go back to
Mexico you're protesting to stay away
from Mexico but you're waving the
Mexican flag and you're waving it with
pride you're waving it in the United
States the country you're trying to stay
in the country you don't want to leave
exactly but yet you're waving the
Mexican flag with pride okay that seems
normal to you that seems logical that's
not stupid
at all none of that's stupid it's
ridiculous all right you guys you guys
are embarrassment to the Mexican culture
and to the United States culture you
guys are embarrassment to everybody
around you and you should be ashamed of
yourself
do better and you know this whole thing
is not even about immigration yes they
want immigration they want mass
immigration they are furious that the we
are actually enforcing our borders and
our law you see the mass immigration
happening in countries all over the west
this is the left's plan but it's so much
more than that they are fighting Western
values and again that's not everybody
that's there that's not the people that
get involved after the fact that's not
the observers that uh are fed bad
information about ICE and bad
information about who the administration
are going after in Los Angeles they're
going after primarily at least for right
now they're going after criminals ice
was there along with other federal
agencies
serving warrants for arrest for very
nefarious individuals that happen to be
in the United States illegally and if
you learn that and you say to yourself
okay well I support those individuals i
want that type of an individual to be
here in the US you need to parse that
out this is a lightning rod issue in the
US we need to think through it we need
to be able to talk about it more there
are some things I don't agree with with
the Trump administration and their
enforcement and their strategy on this
but I am not willing to go back into a
BLM America blm self-proclaimed Marxists
that want to overturn the American
system are Western values
and bring in something completely
different that is their goal well Greg
you're ridiculous you sound like a
conspiracy theorist no look into it look
who's involved with this look what a
joke BLM has become we'll see what
happens here over the next several days
or weeks because these protesters
agitators and those that are funding
them and behind all of this and the
media of course are in this for the long
game and they're going to turn the heat
up
thanks for listening
