As a man of 31 having already gone through the phase of discovering Carlin for the first time, my new favorite thing is watching younger people's reactions in the same exact situation. It's like having a third person view of myself ten (give or take) years ago. The man was a genius in so many ways, very few have been able to push limits like he did...especially in this social climate. Keep reacting to his videos. Comedy makes you laugh, great comedy makes you uncomfortable while you laugh.
Carlin, Pryor , old Chappelle, robin williams, bill hicks etc etc. I’m the same age as you and as a half black kid from the Bay Area these were my mentors. The men that formed how I view the world . I really feel like we have forgotten their messages
Same. Millennial here, discovered George Carlin at 14 (by watching Outrageous Fortune, the 1987 film, not the TV series, and thinking he was JUST an actor), then discovered he was actually one of the greatest comedians and philosophers that ever walked the Earth. Now I love watching other Millennials and Gen Z see him for the first time. We need Carlin back SO BADLY.
Carlin was trying to make a point. He was trying to shock people. "Everyone" wants death penalty, as long as its being done "by someone else" and "in a place where i don't have to see it or deal with it". The minute you start trying to make it visible and something everyone has to deal with, be it to see the gory details in person or by trying to explain and defend it to their kids, people usually don't feel too comfortable. But hey, it's probably easier to just see it as a comedy bit.
Carlin's stuff is absolutely TIMELESS. I love watching new people introduced to his mindset and genuis. I'm just waiting to see one of these "younger" reaction channels catch on to the fact that almost every single death he mentions in this bit was on Game of Thrones at some point and we all know how much people loved that shit. Just saying lol 🤔🤷♀️ Balance the stupid f"in budget!! 🤯😁
One of the things that's so great about George, is when he is shocking people, he is deliberately crossing the line. He is making people uncomfortable, but there's always a basic truth there at the heart of his comedy. His amazing intellect goes way over many people's heads. In terms of stand-up, he is the greatest ever, at least for me he is.
Carlin is actually very much opposed to the death penalty. In his books he talks about exactly what you said. He's just making a point about the hypocrisy of it all.
It's kinda the "Batman" argument. "I'm not talking about the Penguin, Riddler or Catwoman. I'm talking about someone so deranged, they are beyond saving". Maybe people are scared that if the Government starts Executing "Criminals" that one Day, they get a bit too "generous" with their Death Sentences. I think we should at least kill the worst of the worst, they are just in Prison, taking up Space and Resources. Not to mention.... and I hope this doesn't happen to often, imagine a Serial Killer Who fucked and ate 5 Babies and putting them in the same Room as People in Jail for illegal downloads or Robbery, this is why Criminals come out of Prison MORE messed up then when they went in.
See, this is why Carlin is the master at what he does. The bit was set up basically like "The Aristocrats", where he's constantly going further and further over the top and getting more and more extreme and twisted. And as he builds toward the end of the bit, he starts playing with the audience's expectations, setting it up so they think the final punchline is gonna be the most extreme thing they've ever heard. But then all it ends up being is a lame pun. "Wouldn't know whether he was coming or going" sounds almost like a dad joke. It's intentionally anticlimactic. Genius.
Carlin is actually very much opposed to the death penalty. In his books he talks about exactly what you said. He's just making a point about the hypocrisy of it all. Same as abortion etc... He intentionally takes things to the extreme to show the insanity of the logic. He's like South Park... but in physical form. While it all may seem intense, offensive, or even just very edgy, he's actually just making a point by showing how flawed the logic is.
If you’re reacting to George carlin, you absolutely need to react to a “place for your stuff” It is in my opinion one of the greatest bits of stand-up comedy in history and one of his greatest bits.
I really love the dark satire in this bit, one of the few stand up routines of his where he actually doesn’t believe what he’s saying, he’s making a broader point on how people seem to get off on the death penalty. Some people in the auditorium seemed to think Carlin actually wanted this to happen lol
11:50 no they get reactions of pleading when they are given life without parole...because then they must continue on in this life with the punishment they can’t get out of...those people WANT the death penalty imposed...because then they don’t have to suffer the jail term One I remember ages ago was the notion that if I was ever convicted of a capitol offence, but allowed to choose my method of execution...then I’d ask to be taken to the Super Bowl, or the soccer World Cup, or some other major sporting event where the fans take their fanaticism of it a bit too seriously, be stood out in the field at half time with a microphone and say “you people do realise it’s JUST A GAME RIGHT!?”...be dead within minutes
This is just like his 4 rectangular state prisons bit - he is actually mocking and pointing out the hypocrisy which also reveals he is opposed to these things.
There’s so many George Carlin bits that you should react to. Modern man, losing things (the version that’s part of his HBO special Playing With Your Head) people who oughta be killed, time, sports, baseball vs football, proud to be an American/god bless America, taking off your hat, things we say when people die, keeping people alert, driving, and interview with Jesus. Those are just some of the many George Carlin bits that you should react to.
Don't forget about Advertising Lullaby, that pne is amazing. Maybe they already reaced to it, not sure. Love that one and Modern Man as well. Just amazing.
I think it was Commander Shepard who said "It's not the severity of punishment that deters criminals, it's the certainty". Capital punishment doesn't work because people are still committing capital crimes.
Yeah if you know for sure you're going to get caught and that means ten years in prison, that will scare you a lot more than a 1 in a million chance of the death penalty.
It's kind of funny (or rather frightening) how many people that don't get that this is satire. Carlin is making fun of American's blood lust and hypocrisy when it comes to capital punishment, but many people takes this seriously.
Hearing George presenting these ideas reminds me of his greatest remark on having ideas... "I have a lot of great ideas! Problem is, most of 'em suck!"
Part of the point about the death penalty not doing anything is also because all studies show it doesn't actually work as a deterrent to people committing crimes.
"It's about time," he said of Bundy's execution after 11 years on death row. "He is done stalling for time."Jan 24, 1989- Just about every major convict has stayed or put off his own execution for years.....yes..they are afraid to die when they are no longer in control. They thrive being in control!
Not being afraid to die (in the sense of taking the risk) and WANTING to die are two different things. His point was that capital punishment isn't effective as a deterrent - and he was right, it isn't.
@@austenhead5303 America and many others haven’t learned this lesson yet. And then wonder why crime is still up, maybe if you actually *rehabilitate*, you wouldn’t need the death penalty.
O.K. --- Men you all have a selected video by the master!!!!!!. George was a thinker.. May I suggest the three of you locate George's skit on germs. It is a hoot!!!!!!!!! Several great points...
George was a hero to my generation. When you were surounded by human robots who did everything they were told to do. Go to work. Go to church. Eat what the TV tells you to eat. Believe everything the government tells you to believe. George was the voice for those of us who refused to buy the bullshit they kept trying to shove down our throats while they robbed us blind and got even richer because stupid people bought whatever they were selling. George's skills were simple logic and unbelievable memorization. His gift was comedic timing. He and Robin Williams were the true kings of comedy.
Great channell, hope you guys get big. Sone older stuff I know you'd all like: Bill Hicks - Dinosaur in the Bible John Pinnette - Get out of the line! Brian Regan - ER story
I hate the death penalty with a passion 1.There is no credible proof that the death penalty works as a deterrent. In the US, in states where the death penalty has been abolished, there has been no significant change in the rates for serious criminal offenses, such as murder. 2. It is a cruel and unusual punishment, where basic standards of human dignity are compromised or undermined. It continues the cycle of violence. Retribution is just another word for revenge-it is essentially just a form of the flawed thinking that two wrongs can make a right. The pro argument is that killing people is wrong; therefore, you should kill people for killing, which makes no sense. . . 3. It affects the poorer segments of society and racial minorities disproportionately, in part because they cannot afford the costs of good legal support. In the USA, although only 13% of the population is African-American, 50% of death row prisoners are African-American. 4. The justice system is bound to make mistakes. In the case of people who are wrongly imprisoned, they can be released from prison and given compensation, but a wrongful execution can never be righted. 5. The death penalty is not cost-effective. When all the practical and legal costs are taken into account, it is clear that the execution is more expensive than imprisoning for life. 6. A life spent in prison is a worse punishment than an execution. A life sentence prisoner has many years to endure their punishment, as well as experience remorse and reflect on his or her crimes. of law enforcement officials. The abolition of the death penalty occurs most often in states where the murder of police officers is a very low percentage of all homicides. In 2014, there were 14,000 murders that took place in the United States, but there were only 35 executions that took place. 7. It is used to control political messages. The United States uses the death penalty exclusively for the punishment of crimes as defined by legal code and precedent. It is a principle which is not consistent for other countries in the world. 78% of global executions because of capital punishment come from just four countries when excluding China: Iraq, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. 8. Family members of a victim are adversely impacted by the death penalty. The Marquette Law Review found that when family members go through the capital punishment process after someone they love becomes a victim, they have higher levels of mental, physical, and behavioral health problems when compared to when the perpetrator receives a sentence of life in prison. Although this issue does not happen in every circumstance, some family members can feel responsible for the fact that the government is putting this criminal to death. Proponents would argue that capital punishment provides relief because it guarantees that person can no longer harm another, but there are many families who do not feel a sense of satisfaction with this action. If they are the ones who experience loss, then there should be a way to provide input for them. There are very few prison escapes that occur, and fewer that involve violent criminals. 9. The number of escapes from prison in the United States declined by more than 50% between 1998-2013, falling to a rate of 10.5 escapes per 10,000 prisoners in 2013. At the same time, the number of life sentences handed out by the court system has gone up by 500%. Most of the incidents that contribute to a prisoner escape come from low-security situations, like when 16 prisoners walked away from a work site and another 3 disappeared from a community work center. Out of all of the reported escapes in 2013, only one inmate from a secured facility was able to get away. Some countries, including Sudan and Iran, use the death penalty as a political tool. It becomes a way to punish political opponents who might want to take their country in a different direction. There were a total of 2,500 death sentences recorded in 54 countries in 2018, with about 20,000 people currently under sentence around the world at the end of the year. 10. Children are sometimes put to death through the use of capital punishment. There are at least 97 kids who were put to death by capital punishment laws in Iran since 1990. Another 145 child executions have happened in China, the Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Sudan, South Sudan, Yemen, Nigeria - and the United States. Scott Hain, Toronto Patterson, T.J. Jones, Napoleon Beazley, Gerald Mitchell, Shaka Sankofa, Glen McGinnis, and Steven Roach were all put to death in the United States for a crime that they committed at age 17. Sean Sellers was executed when he was 29 for a crime that he committed when he was 16. 11. The evidence obtained to justify the death penalty is sometimes tainted. There are specific guidelines in the United States today that limit how and when law enforcement can obtain evidence during questioning. This structure of protection is not always available around the world. There are numerous people executed after being convicted during an unfair trial, often on the basis of evidence or confessions obtained through the use of torture. Some defendants were not given adequate legal representation. Some countries even use the death penalty as a mandatory punishment for specific offenses, which means the judge cannot consider the circumstances of the crime during the sentencing phase of a trial. 12. More focus on Rehabilitation for serious offenders murderers, rapists, pedophiles, abusers, and drug dealers Is more effective to reintegrate them back into society and also get them a job however not everyone can be rehabilitated and that's what maximum-security prison is for the keep them away from the Society but still treat them like human beings NOT like animals take away their freedom not their Humanity. Norway prove this its recidivism rate is 20% in Germany it's 40% in Japan 48% the United States full on punishment prison (with zero Rehabilitation) recidivism rate is 76.6%
You guys should check Carlin's squeaky clean earliest material from the 60's. Just to get an idea of how much he evolved with the times. I recommend his "Indian Staff Sergeant" bit.
Crucifixions on Monday Night Football? You wanna see the rating skyrocket! lol And balancing the US budget is a farce. The US deficit (i.e. federal debt) has been has been around since 1789, barring the 1 year during Andrew Jackson's presidency when it was paid off. It has basically been used as a credit card by the federal government which doesn't have any spending limit. Once it reached $1 billion in the mid-1980s it might as well not haven't existed at all. And since they started adding to it a trillion at a time in 2020, it really doesn't mean anything. If you could print money at home, would *_you_* care home much you were spending? Of course, it does have consequences. Inflation and the international devaluation of the US dollar, just to name two.
God I hate debt hawks. National debt is just a talking point, no politician ACTUALLY gives a shit because it's perfectly fine the way it is right now, they just use it to get people angry at the other side for raising it.
I could be wrong. But I've always wondered if that is why there on death row for so long. You hear about so many people on death row repenting and or finding god... before they kill them. It's like they waiting on them to not want to die, before they kill them.
Carlin is actually very much opposed to the death penalty. In his books he talks about exactly what you said. He's just making a point about the hypocrisy of it all. Now to your question. Because the last thing you want to do is execute an innocent person. It's happened too many times as it is.
In fact, SK's Ted Bundy & Gary Gilmore practically made a show about wanting to be executed. You know, newspaper interviews & constant news coverage. And you just knew they weren't kidding!

Loving the channel all the way round. Wondering if you guys would be open to doing Tom MacDonald-No Response, or Snow Tha Product-Really Counts? Thanks either way🙏
Actually, most death row inmates spend years trying different appeal strategies to avoid being executed. That's why it takes so long to carry out the sentences.
@@stevonwhite8933 Yeah, I'm still waiting for that first case when an American appeals court makes a final ruling that a perp was wrongly executed by a state or the feds.
@@ZEPnALE George Stinney Jr. 14, executed for murdering two white girls in SC 1944. He was forced into signing a confession letter, and his family was run out of town. He wasn’t even physically big enough to commit crimes of this nature.
@@stevonwhite8933 The judge who vacated the verdict in 2014 did not exonerate Stinney. In fact, she stated that "...he may well have committed..." the murders. She only ruled that he had not received a fair trial, specifically citing the 6th Amendment. In any case, that trial was 20 years before the Miranda ruling, and post WW II criminal procedure laws. It was also more than 2 decades before civil rights and voting rights legislation which, among other effects, essentially prevent all white juries.
@@ZEPnALE He was barely even 5 feet tall at 14. He didn’t commit those murders. It’s been proven it was a white man that was in the girls house, and knew them. He died long before Stinney was exonerated. It’s funny how you actually think this country didn’t falsely imprison and kill people when it’s proven ALL the time. Just cause not that many people aren’t taking off death row, doesn’t mean anything other than our justice system is absolutely GARBAGE.
I have another idea on this. You take a person who messes with kids & put them in a room with a sicko who likes to kill people in really disgusting ways! Give them a job. We know there's no rehabbing either of those groups.

Nothing wrong with Marxism mate. All it is is a critique of capitalism. Nothing should be accepted without questioning it, and that’s all Marxism does. Look into it, I’m sure you’d be surprised as to how mild it is. It’s just another word that has been corrupted to cause fear aand therefore to control. I’d be shocked if Carlin didn’t have a good few Marxist values as he is constantly criticizing the capitalist way America is, which is de facto Marxism. If you love how Carlin thinks and agree with his points about america, then you also have some Marxist values andthere is absolutely nothing wrong with that:)
Carlin never talked about his true political point of view except to say that he didn’t give a fuck about the outcome of this country or anywhere else. He was here for the entertainment: to watch us and take his notes. Although, his daughter said that if he were still alive he’d like Bernie Sanders.

Carlin's "War on Homelessness" and "Flying"
george carlin was great. the best ever.. i met him twice in atlantic city he was such a nice guy.
I've seen many George reaction videos, but I got to say I love your addition on his brick wall bit with having a force meter. Hilarious stuff.
Ah! Thank you. So great you're reacting to this. I'm sure a lot more ppl than me requested this. Glad you enjoyed it.
11:50 no they get reactions of pleading when they are given life without parole...because then they must continue on in this life with the punishment they can’t get out of...those people WANT the death penalty imposed...because then they don’t have to suffer the jail term
One I remember ages ago was the notion that if I was ever convicted of a capitol offence, but allowed to choose my method of execution...then I’d ask to be taken to the Super Bowl, or the soccer World Cup, or some other major sporting event where the fans take their fanaticism of it a bit too seriously, be stood out in the field at half time with a microphone and say “you people do realise it’s JUST A GAME RIGHT!?”...be dead within minutes

I had the privilege of seeing George live back in the day.
There’s so many George Carlin bits that you should react to. Modern man, losing things (the version that’s part of his HBO special Playing With Your Head) people who oughta be killed, time, sports, baseball vs football, proud to be an American/god bless America, taking off your hat, things we say when people die, keeping people alert, driving, and interview with Jesus.
Those are just some of the many George Carlin bits that you should react to.
Don't forget about Advertising Lullaby, that pne is amazing. Maybe they already reaced to it, not sure. Love that one and Modern Man as well. Just amazing.

Should get to Daniel Tosh. He has a full special out on UA-cam, should give you quite a few episodes.
It's kind of funny (or rather frightening) how many people that don't get that this is satire. Carlin is making fun of American's blood lust and hypocrisy when it comes to capital punishment, but many people takes this seriously.
You guys should definitely check out
Four Groups That Gotta Go
also by George Carlin
Also known as “State Prison Farms”
I love how this entire bit was anti death penalty but no one ever catches it on the first viewing unless you know his previous material lol
Remember when you guys said Carlin was tame compared to today's comedians 😅
This was a good one 😂
"Sponsored by Home Depot."
That's a solid fucking joke, my friend
Can you guys also react to trailers?
Miss u guys>>
These reactions are awesome! The funniest insanely clever Carlin routines I’ve ever seen are “people who should be killed” and “soft language” :)
Hearing George presenting these ideas reminds me of his greatest remark on having ideas... "I have a lot of great ideas! Problem is, most of 'em suck!"
Part of the point about the death penalty not doing anything is also because all studies show it doesn't actually work as a deterrent to people committing crimes.
I think y'all would really like Norm Macdonald's Alcoholism or 12 minute joke. Both are hilarious.
"It's about time," he said of Bundy's execution after 11 years on death row. "He is done stalling for time."Jan 24, 1989- Just about every major convict has stayed or put off his own execution for years.....yes..they are afraid to die when they are no longer in control. They thrive being in control!
Not being afraid to die (in the sense of taking the risk) and WANTING to die are two different things. His point was that capital punishment isn't effective as a deterrent - and he was right, it isn't.
@@austenhead5303 America and many others haven’t learned this lesson yet. And then wonder why crime is still up, maybe if you actually *rehabilitate*, you wouldn’t need the death penalty.
You mentioned BASEBALL, he also has a routine on BASEBALL vs. FOOTBALL, another GOOD ONE!
I wanna see an animated adventure of these executions
the COMIN OR GOIN joke is the best xDD
How are you guys only at 13k subscribers? You guys definitely deserve more subscribers lol.
Catapult sponsor: All-State. Are you in good hands?
O.K. --- Men you all have a selected video by the master!!!!!!. George was a thinker.. May I suggest the three of you locate George's skit on germs. It is a hoot!!!!!!!!! Several great points...
I find it interesting on videos like this that the audio is completely intact but the captions are censored.
holy shit thats the first time ive hear someone even suggest that white-collar crime should warrant harder penalties
I laughed till I cried by the 5 th minute,I think I need a half time break crucifixion show just to do it the Carlin way😂
George was a hero to my generation. When you were surounded by human robots who did everything they were told to do. Go to work. Go to church. Eat what the TV tells you to eat. Believe everything the government tells you to believe.
George was the voice for those of us who refused to buy the bullshit they kept trying to shove down our throats while they robbed us blind and got even richer because stupid people bought whatever they were selling.
George's skills were simple logic and unbelievable memorization.
His gift was comedic timing. He and Robin Williams were the true kings of comedy.
Stop putting him on I can’t stand the pain in my rib cage from laughing outstanding
Great channell, hope you guys get big.
Sone older stuff I know you'd all like:

I hate the death penalty with a passion 1.There is no credible proof that the death penalty works as a deterrent. In the US, in states where the death penalty has been abolished, there has been no significant change in the rates for serious criminal offenses, such as murder.
2. It is a cruel and unusual punishment, where basic standards of human dignity are compromised or undermined.
It continues the cycle of violence. Retribution is just another word for revenge-it is essentially just a form of the flawed thinking that two wrongs can make a right. The pro argument is that killing people is wrong; therefore, you should kill people for killing, which makes no sense. . .
3. It affects the poorer segments of society and racial minorities disproportionately, in part because they cannot afford the costs of good legal support. In the USA, although only 13% of the population is African-American, 50% of death row prisoners are African-American.
4. The justice system is bound to make mistakes. In the case of people who are wrongly imprisoned, they can be released from prison and given compensation, but a wrongful execution can never be righted.
5. The death penalty is not cost-effective. When all the practical and legal costs are taken into account, it is clear that the execution is more expensive than imprisoning for life.
6. A life spent in prison is a worse punishment than an execution. A life sentence prisoner has many years to endure their punishment, as well as experience remorse and reflect on his or her crimes. of law enforcement officials.
The abolition of the death penalty occurs most often in states where the murder of police officers is a very low percentage of all homicides.
In 2014, there were 14,000 murders that took place in the United States, but there were only 35 executions that took place.
7. It is used to control political messages.
The United States uses the death penalty exclusively for the punishment of crimes as defined by legal code and precedent. It is a principle which is not consistent for other countries in the world. 78% of global executions because of capital punishment come from just four countries when excluding China: Iraq, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. 8. Family members of a victim are adversely impacted by the death penalty.
The Marquette Law Review found that when family members go through the capital punishment process after someone they love becomes a victim, they have higher levels of mental, physical, and behavioral health problems when compared to when the perpetrator receives a sentence of life in prison. Although this issue does not happen in every circumstance, some family members can feel responsible for the fact that the government is putting this criminal to death.
Proponents would argue that capital punishment provides relief because it guarantees that person can no longer harm another, but there are many families who do not feel a sense of satisfaction with this action. If they are the ones who experience loss, then there should be a way to provide input for them. There are very few prison escapes that occur, and fewer that involve violent criminals.
9. The number of escapes from prison in the United States declined by more than 50% between 1998-2013, falling to a rate of 10.5 escapes per 10,000 prisoners in 2013. At the same time, the number of life sentences handed out by the court system has gone up by 500%. Most of the incidents that contribute to a prisoner escape come from low-security situations, like when 16 prisoners walked away from a work site and another 3 disappeared from a community work center.
Out of all of the reported escapes in 2013, only one inmate from a secured facility was able to get away.
Some countries, including Sudan and Iran, use the death penalty as a political tool. It becomes a way to punish political opponents who might want to take their country in a different direction. There were a total of 2,500 death sentences recorded in 54 countries in 2018, with about 20,000 people currently under sentence around the world at the end of the year.
10. Children are sometimes put to death through the use of capital punishment.
There are at least 97 kids who were put to death by capital punishment laws in Iran since 1990. Another 145 child executions have happened in China, the Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Sudan, South Sudan, Yemen, Nigeria - and the United States.
Scott Hain, Toronto Patterson, T.J. Jones, Napoleon Beazley, Gerald Mitchell, Shaka Sankofa, Glen McGinnis, and Steven Roach were all put to death in the United States for a crime that they committed at age 17. Sean Sellers was executed when he was 29 for a crime that he committed when he was 16. 11. The evidence obtained to justify the death penalty is sometimes tainted.
There are specific guidelines in the United States today that limit how and when law enforcement can obtain evidence during questioning. This structure of protection is not always available around the world. There are numerous people executed after being convicted during an unfair trial, often on the basis of evidence or confessions obtained through the use of torture. Some defendants were not given adequate legal representation.
Some countries even use the death penalty as a mandatory punishment for specific offenses, which means the judge cannot consider the circumstances of the crime during the sentencing phase of a trial. 12. More focus on Rehabilitation for serious offenders murderers, rapists, pedophiles, abusers, and drug dealers Is more effective to reintegrate them back into society and also get them a job however not everyone can be rehabilitated and that's what maximum-security prison is for the keep them away from the Society but still treat them like human beings NOT like animals take away their freedom not their Humanity. Norway prove this its recidivism rate is 20% in Germany it's 40% in Japan 48% the United States full on punishment prison (with zero Rehabilitation) recidivism rate is 76.6%
This should be top comment💯
Dude on the left just fucking quote Lelouch 'fucking' Lamperouge. Awesome.
Entropy is one of his best ever skits.
I like the baseball example of posting the stats.
You guys should check Carlin's squeaky clean earliest material from the 60's. Just to get an idea of how much he evolved with the times. I recommend his "Indian Staff Sergeant" bit.
Daniel Sloss Religion is pretty great
Firestone keeps you rolling lol
7:38 got caught yawning lol got the Glare
Crucifixions on Monday Night Football? You wanna see the rating skyrocket! lol And balancing the US budget is a farce. The US deficit (i.e. federal debt) has been has been around since 1789, barring the 1 year during Andrew Jackson's presidency when it was paid off. It has basically been used as a credit card by the federal government which doesn't have any spending limit. Once it reached $1 billion in the mid-1980s it might as well not haven't existed at all. And since they started adding to it a trillion at a time in 2020, it really doesn't mean anything. If you could print money at home, would *_you_* care home much you were spending? Of course, it does have consequences. Inflation and the international devaluation of the US dollar, just to name two.
God I hate debt hawks. National debt is just a talking point, no politician ACTUALLY gives a shit because it's perfectly fine the way it is right now, they just use it to get people angry at the other side for raising it.
I remember getting into my first fight and I thought if I hit this person they're more than willing to hit me back so you give what you get.
If you can get by a Scottish accent try Frankie Boyle, Audience annihilation part 1. It will blow you away
Absolutely!
Frankie Boyle is amazing! XD
He cares not for anyone's sensibilities.
I could be wrong. But I've always wondered if that is why there on death row for so long. You hear about so many people on death row repenting and or finding god... before they kill them. It's like they waiting on them to not want to die, before they kill them.
Carlin is actually very much opposed to the death penalty. In his books he talks about exactly what you said. He's just making a point about the hypocrisy of it all. Now to your question. Because the last thing you want to do is execute an innocent person. It's happened too many times as it is.
It’s sad you young guys never did more George Carlin
In fact, SK's Ted Bundy & Gary Gilmore practically made a show about wanting to be executed. You know, newspaper interviews & constant news coverage. And you just knew they weren't kidding!
I highly recommend you react to some Doug Stanhope
I've tried requesting the Doug Stanhope 'Proof Of The Afterlife' and have gotten nowhere lol
No topic was too far or too offensive for George Thats for sure😂💀
The biggest reason for not doing capital punishment is that in the US, at least 4 % of people on the death row were most probably innocent.

2. It is a cruel and unusual punishment, where basic standards of human dignity are compromised or undermined.

I think the death penalty should have gladiator games mix in movies of the Gamer/Running Man than crime would go down
Loving the channel all the way round. Wondering if you guys would be open to doing Tom MacDonald-No Response, or Snow Tha Product-Really Counts?
Thanks either way🙏
They were both in the same show.
Check out some Doug Stanhope when you get a chance.

Classic skit
George Carlin the legendary
Word master!
My dudes, try some Chris Turner's freestyles :D He's awesome :D
For sure :D
please react to Eddie Izzard World History next! so funny
Goated
Gotta watch Epic Rap Battles of History George Carlin vs Richard Prior
Someone said his IQ was somewhere around 165.
Carlin is equal opportunity folks !!!!
why the one in the middle smile so weird? He is a banker? lol
Tim Minchin- Thank you God!
You should try Eddie izzard, cake or death.
Actually, most death row inmates spend years trying different appeal strategies to avoid being executed. That's why it takes so long to carry out the sentences.
Af least 2 in 9 people put on death row are falsely imprisoned/convicted. Death penalty should be outlawed, simple as that.
@@stevonwhite8933 Yeah, I'm still waiting for that first case when an American appeals court makes a final ruling that a perp was wrongly executed by a state or the feds.
@@ZEPnALE George Stinney Jr. 14, executed for murdering two white girls in SC 1944. He was forced into signing a confession letter, and his family was run out of town. He wasn’t even physically big enough to commit crimes of this nature.
@@stevonwhite8933 The judge who vacated the verdict in 2014 did not exonerate Stinney. In fact, she stated that "...he may well have committed..." the murders. She only ruled that he had not received a fair trial, specifically citing the 6th Amendment. In any case, that trial was 20 years before the Miranda ruling, and post WW II criminal procedure laws. It was also more than 2 decades before civil rights and voting rights legislation which, among other effects, essentially prevent all white juries.
@@ZEPnALE He was barely even 5 feet tall at 14. He didn’t commit those murders. It’s been proven it was a white man that was in the girls house, and knew them. He died long before Stinney was exonerated.
It’s funny how you actually think this country didn’t falsely imprison and kill people when it’s proven ALL the time. Just cause not that many people aren’t taking off death row, doesn’t mean anything other than our justice system is absolutely GARBAGE.
You should do 7 words it was a supreme court case
you will surprise with song 'crazy over you' and 'love to hate me'
@abhishek KILL THIS LOVE PLS:(
Another guy you might check out is Bill Hicks he's pretty funny.
Checkout the Fatman Trailer
Keep watching George Carlin. You should also check out Bill Hicks.
I have another idea on this. You take a person who messes with kids & put them in a room with a sicko who likes to kill people in really disgusting ways! Give them a job. We know there's no rehabbing either of those groups.
You should check out Steve Huges offended or live at the Apollo full pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease

Nobody will ever convince me George wasn’t a Marxist. But I love him though
Nothing wrong with Marxism mate. All it is is a critique of capitalism. Nothing should be accepted without questioning it, and that’s all Marxism does. Look into it, I’m sure you’d be surprised as to how mild it is. It’s just another word that has been corrupted to cause fear aand therefore to control.
I’d be shocked if Carlin didn’t have a good few Marxist values as he is constantly criticizing the capitalist way America is, which is de facto Marxism. If you love how Carlin thinks and agree with his points about america, then you also have some Marxist values andthere is absolutely nothing wrong with that:)
Carlin never talked about his true political point of view except to say that he didn’t give a fuck about the outcome of this country or anywhere else. He was here for the entertainment: to watch us and take his notes. Although, his daughter said that if he were still alive he’d like Bernie Sanders.
Capital punishment should be done at the capital to only elected officials not doing their jobs.
Watch the Chris Distefano 9/11 story , if you liked the machine story and the MS story then you will fucking love this one
Way ahead of you! 😊 ua-cam.com/video/lSHozZ2XUwk/v-deo.html
