Summary

The Ralph Yarl case is awful and complicated all at once. Nobody won here and there is no great outcome for either of the two people involved. But piling on a frail, seemingly confused 84 year old man exposes the worst of us. The new details around Andrew Lester's plea are just despicable. I've got two audio clips to play for you from national figures that have been in the news a lot over the last year. You won't believe how these two people sound. How do you get and keep large crowds for the NFL Draft to stay all night for the end? You hire Fallout Boy, Motley Crue and Thundercat to play each night after the drafting ends. Who knew? We can scratch moving to Vegas off the list of possible Royals threats if they don't get a new $2 billion stadium because the A's are moving onto 49 of the most expensive acres in America right by the strip. But somehow, the Royals want to spend 33% more money than the A's to build here. What? And the soccer teams in KC appear to be as bad as the Royals. The women's team just fired their coach after an 0-3 start for some mysterious reason. This same coach had them in the title game last year.

0:12.0	The shooting of 16-year-old Ralph Yarrell in the Northland a week ago has everyone in the Kansas City area
0:20.0	and many people all across the country talking about
0:22.2	the situation of this case, the specifics of this case, and where we go from here. And all I can
0:29.1	think of is I'm following this case now that we see that Andrew Lester has pled not guilty in his
0:34.2	first court appearance that lasted about three minutes long where he looked disoriented and disheveled, is this really is a complete mirror reflection of everything
0:45.2	that is wrong in America today. In one nutshell, in one moment, in one case in Kansas City,
0:57.8	we see the worst of the division of our country.
1:04.0	And the worst part of the division of our country is the complete lack of commitment or seriousness to doing something about it, to trying to fix it.
1:07.2	There is absolutely no chance anybody on the left in this country wants to bridge the divide.
1:16.7	They'll say it. We want to be together. America doesn't need to be splintered. We should all come
1:21.8	together. Acceptance, you know, inclusion, all these things. They absolutely do not mean it. And this has demonstrated that.
1:30.0	And there is obviously some bad stuff on the right as well as it pertains to this case.
1:35.8	And I just, I simply don't understand it. I don't understand how we got to a point where
1:40.9	two people's lives potentially here are just completely ruined.
1:46.6	And it's pretty obvious now the 84-year-old man's life is in more of a shambles and tatters
1:53.2	than the 16-year-old boy who has complete full of recovery ahead of him, according to the doctors,
2:00.5	and a full life to live.
2:03.8	The 84-year-old man has nothing to live for at this point.
