Simpson case.\u00a0 And both of them, one of them particularly, set the whole thing up by rebroadcasting a history of police racism, LAPD against African-Americans in the community, and they set it up that way to explain why the jury found O.J. not guilty.<\/p>\n<p>Now, you\u2019re an American.\u00a0 You watch television.\u00a0 I don\u2019t know if you saw these, but imagine you were.\u00a0 You\u2019re watching a miniseries on the O.J. trial.\u00a0 All of a sudden you see five straight nights in a row of how the LAPD is a bunch of racist pigs that are killing and injuring and maiming innocent African-Americans, and you\u2019ve got to go to work the next day knowing a lot of people where you work saw the same thing.\u00a0 Do you think about that?\u00a0 Does that affect you as you do your job?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2016\/07\/08\/heather_mac_donald_talks_about_her_essential_book_the_war_on_cops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img id=\"eZObject_124640\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Heather-mac-Donald_War-On-Cops-_-Rush-B.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/><\/a>CALLER:\u00a0 Oh, good grief, I would be lying if I say it doesn\u2019t.\u00a0 And over the years, I\u2019ve been doing this 18 years, and you compartmentalize things like that.\u00a0 But when things like last night happened, it finally comes bulging out and here I am talking to Rush Limbaugh.\u00a0 And it\u2019s a way to vent sometimes.\u00a0 Does that make sense?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Totally.\u00a0 Yeah.\u00a0 Totally.\u00a0 All right.\u00a0 I guess it\u2019s my way of expressing how I empathize with what you do.\u00a0 I watched those and I got mad all over again.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t even affect me and I got mad all over again.\u00a0 I can imagine what happened to other people who might have claimed more relevance to it than I did.\u00a0 I just watched it as another citizen once again from afar, even though the program is on the air in Los Angeles. We talked about it each and every day. \u00a0It got to the point, we didn\u2019t know O.J.

He operated a sit-in on gun control.\u00a0 What if it would have worked and it would have passed, and we would have had people put on no fly lists, and the first people put on that no fly list would have been people who are members of the Black Lives Matter movement?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Wait a minute.\u00a0 How do you know that? (chuckles)\u00a0 How do you know they wouldn\u2019t have been granted an exemption?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Well, that\u2019s my point.\u00a0 So you don\u2019t think Obama would have supported members of Black Lives Matter being put on the No Fly List? They\u2019re terrorists. They\u2019re doing terrorist activities.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Now which comes first? Getting on the No Fly List means you can\u2019t get a gun or you can\u2019t get a gun puts you on the No Fly List?\u00a0 Which comes first?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Well, I think the bill would have been: If you\u2019re put on the list, you can\u2019t get a gun.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 But isn\u2019t that the case now?\u00a0 Or no?\u00a0 That\u2019s right. That\u2019s what they want to make it &#8212; and, of course, the reason that\u2019s bogus is because there\u2019s all kinds of people on the No Fly List who have no business being there.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Absolutely.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 So you can automatically&#8230; You can assign somebody to the No Fly List by virtue of that deny them a gun. If BLM people ended up there, would Elijah Cummings&#8230;? That\u2019s a good question.\u00a0 If you came up with something that would take guns out of the hands of these guys&#8230; (laughing) Wow.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: (laughing) Absolutely.\u00a0 It\u2019s a little ironic.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 It would be an interesting way to expose the truth from some of these people, wouldn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Absolutely.\u00a0 And, you know, if they really thought about socialism and communism has killed more people than guns ever have.\u00a0 So they oughta stop being socialists.\u00a0 (chuckling)<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Well, but that\u2019s just to make sure that some people don\u2019t do better than others.\u00a0 If you can\u2019t bring them down economically you kill them, that\u2019s how you promote equality.\u00a0 You build a wall to keep them in the country.\u00a0 Socialism, communism, build walls to make sure people can\u2019t get out.\u00a0 In a country that\u2019s communist and builds a wall, there\u2019s nobody trying to get in.\u00a0 Works every time it\u2019s tried.\u00a0 Thanks for the call, Glenn.\u00a0 This is Max, in Boston.\u00a0 You\u2019re next.\u00a0 Open Line Friday.\u00a0 Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Rush, it\u2019s an honor and privilege.\u00a0 I\u2019ll get to my point.\u00a0 So every time that we have a terrorist attack on Islamists, this president comes out and preaches to us that this is a minority; there should be no black lash towards other Muslims. They won\u2019t accept it or tolerate it, and they will prosecute.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124664\" class=\"img_right\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dallas-PD-Patch_large.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/>RUSH:\u00a0 This is an excellent point.\u00a0 I know where you\u2019re going with this.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Now, anytime that there\u2019s a cop that shoots a black man &#8212; and whether it\u2019s a justified shooting or not. In the tragic case in Charleston where they murdered him by shooting him in the back&#8230; He doesn\u2019t come out and stick up for them.\u00a0 He doesn\u2019t come out and say, &#8220;Look, this wasn\u2019t a cop.\u00a0 This was a murderer on that day, and 99.9999% of police are great Americans that put their lives on the line for us each and every day and we will not tolerate or accept any backlash.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 It\u2019s a good&#8230; To be consistent&#8230; Let me put this in my own inimitable style.\u00a0 It\u2019s a great point out there, Max.\u00a0 To be consistent&#8230;\u00a0 Every time a militant Islamist terrorist shoots somebody up, what does Obama do and the Democrats?\u00a0 They come out and they demand that there be no backlash against Muslims.\u00a0 Okay.\u00a0 So any time a police officer shoots a black suspect &#8212; without knowing why, without knowing the circumstances &#8212; why doesn\u2019t Obama stand up and warn against a backlash against cops?\u00a0 If we are to guard against backlash against Muslim shooters, where is the sameness? Where is the equality, fairness, what have you?\u00a0 It\u2019s a good point.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever heard anybody in this Regime counsel restraint and advise, &#8220;No backlash against cops. We must maintain the order.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Jim in Bluegrass, Iowa, you\u2019re next great to have you on the program.\u00a0 Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Mega dittos, Rush, from the state of the Hawkeye caucus.\u00a0 I\u2019m a retired police officer.\u00a0 I spent 30 years working for a fairly good-sized municipality.\u00a0 I\u2019ve worked with minority officers both as partners and as a supervisor.\u00a0 In our department and most of the departments I used to work with, were very much looking to hire minority officers.\u00a0 They recruit and they did an excellent job.\u00a0 It\u2019s a very difficult thing because it just seems like a lot of them don\u2019t want to go in and do the job.\u00a0 Saying that, all minority officers, all the officers that I\u2019ve worked with have been excellent, excellent people.\u00a0 But I\u2019ve seen on calls where they take more abuse from the minority community than white officers do.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124665\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dallas-Shooting-E.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>RUSH:\u00a0 You mean because they\u2019re like sell-outs?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Right.\u00a0 Exactly.\u00a0 Exactly.\u00a0 That would probably be the best way to describe. I\u2019ve seen it happen firsthand.\u00a0 And it\u2019s a difficult job to begin with.\u00a0 My heart and prayers go out to my brother officers and sister officers out there.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You know, there was <a href=\"http:\/\/fox2now.com\/2016\/07\/08\/report-officer-shot-in-ballwin-manhunt-underway\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">another cop shooting today in Ballwin, Missouri<\/a>, outside St. Louis.\u00a0 The police officer, in a confrontation with a motorist, the motorist opened fire.\u00a0 The police officer just died, by the way.\u00a0 The suspect is in custody.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Oh my.\u00a0 We had a similar incident to Ferguson in our area where an officer had stopped an individual who was unarmed.\u00a0 It very much offends me to hear that they\u2019re &#8220;unarmed.&#8221;\u00a0 And out of nowhere, this individual starts beating the officer, gets on top of him and tries to take his gun to shoot him.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You are retired.\u00a0 But I\u2019m sure it was much the same &#8212; I try to put myself in the shoes of people in the news.\u00a0 I\u2019m in the news myself quite a lot.\u00a0 But there\u2019s many days I give thanks I\u2019m not in the news and the news that\u2019s out there.\u00a0 But these cops are, and as more of these events happen and as the news publicizes all these, it\u2019s got to be harrowing to put on that uniform the day after something like this happens, or a shooting in Minneapolis or Louisiana or any of these events.\u00a0 To go to work the next day, you have to know, you have to suspect everybody else saw the same thing, and you have to know that emotions are at a fevered pitch. \u00a0It\u2019s got to make it even more dangerous than it normally is.\u00a0 And I don\u2019t think most people stop to think of it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 No, it\u2019s a difficult job at best.\u00a0 And all the excellent people who I\u2019ve worked with over the years &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Why did you want to do it?\u00a0 Why did you want to become a cop?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Because I wanted to help people.\u00a0 I don\u2019t like to see somebody who is down and out or somebody who can\u2019t defend themselves be taken advantage of.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 So it wasn\u2019t about getting bad guys; it was about helping people?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Right.\u00a0 I\u2019ve always wanted to assist people.\u00a0 You talk to my wife, you talk to the people who knew me, especially at a younger age, I always wanted to go out and help someone.\u00a0 It just seemed like it was the right thing to do.\u00a0 I like working with all aspects of the community.\u00a0 I spent a good chunk of my time in PR as well as working with kids in schools and trying to encourage them to be honorable people.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 When you talk about helping people, you\u2019re talking about not only people down and out, but you\u2019re talking about people, victims of crime.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Oh, yes.\u00a0 Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 How much of your desire to be a cop was based on finding people that commit crime, apprehending them, and seeing that they\u2019re punished?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 That\u2019s certainly an element of it.\u00a0 You want to get to the bottom of things.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 Because that\u2019s the dangerous part of it today, that\u2019s the dangerous part of it today.\u00a0 You\u2019re going after, by definition, people breaking the law who don\u2019t want to get caught.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 Right.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You never know, somebody runs a stop sign, could have all kinds of illicit contraband in the car hoping that you don\u2019t find it.\u00a0 You hope that you don\u2019t find it, I\u2019m sure.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_124662\" class=\"img_middle\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Dallas-Shooting-C.jpg\" align=\"middle\" \/>CALLER:\u00a0 Well, going back to the officer I was mentioning a little bit ago, it was just a suspicious person.\u00a0 He was just walking down the street.\u00a0 And there was a suspicious call.\u00a0 The officer responded, came up and started chatting with him.\u00a0 And out of nowhere this guy starts hitting him and hitting him violently and tries to take his gun.\u00a0 So I, fortunately, didn\u2019t have that happen to me.\u00a0 But I\u2019ve been involved in a number of situations where we were outnumbered in a very high tense situation, and you use your communication skills and calm people down and do the best you can there and you do everything you can.\u00a0 I mean, the last thing that any officer wants to do is pull the trigger.\u00a0 I\u2019ve never, ever, with all the officers I\u2019ve ever worked with or met, have ever heard anybody say:\u00a0 I just can\u2019t wait to go out there and do that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 You pull the trigger, it\u2019s hello IAB, right?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:\u00a0 You bet.\u00a0 We used to have a cartoon in the back hallway and it was an officer pointing a gun basically at a person who was stealing.\u00a0 And behind him were all these different people.\u00a0 There was a lawyer, &#8220;You better make sure you have it right.&#8221;\u00a0 You have the citizen out there, &#8220;Hey, it might look bad.&#8221; I can\u2019t remember what they all were.\u00a0 But the best way I heard, you have a tenth of a second to make a decision, you have 10 years to determine whether or not &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:\u00a0 I don\u2019t think I could do the job.\u00a0 I\u2019d be too lenient.\u00a0 I\u2019d let way too many people go at traffic stops or petty this or petty that.\u00a0 I\u2019d be too lenient.\u00a0 I\u2019d be too nice a guy.\u00a0 I\u2019d be too second chance-oriented.\u00a0 Cops, the law\u2019s the law.\u00a0 You see somebody break it, you\u2019ve got to be willing to enforce it.\u00a0 And doing that enhances the confrontational aspect of the whole circumstance.
