0:51 $199 he's an unpaid intern no way I just came for lunch shout out to Northtown all right so there's a Colorado team who shot in the face by a town councilman after town he was going to a home he just saw a home that looked kind of nice uh and he wanted to ask permission in order to take homecoming photos there oh yeah I hear about this so this woman who lives at the home thought that they were trespassers and her boyfriend came out and shot this dude in the face who in the face they were they weren't even doing nothing like totally not there there is I I mean there is a little bit of room for suspicion because of the way maybe that they came up about it uh the shooting happened around 4:15 p.m. at home on Pleasant Park Road in Jefferson County uh what had happened was the boyfriend of the woman who lives at the

1:42 home was arrested in connection with the shooting because the 17-year-old told deputies that he and his friend went to the home because they wanted to take pictures there he said they parked outside the gate and hopped a fence and walked up to the driveway to look for the homeowner when they could not find anyone at that's what I'm saying when when they couldn't find went at the residence the boys walked around the property trying to locate the homeowner that's not how it works and then got back in their car they returned to their car and began writing a note to the homeowner asking permission to use their property to take pictures while they were doing this a man they had never seen before pulled up next to them exited the truck he was driving and fired around through the windshield striking the 17-year-old driver in the field that's why that's illegal too though that's why I thought that cuz they they weren't even on the property anymore by the time that's some execution stuff that's illegal too what the and they said they found like the they actually found the note that they

2:33 wrote and everything like when after they got shot yeah you can't pull up according to an arrest obtained by the station one of the teens reported hearing the boyfriend say oh ████ my gun just went off after the shooting so he he was meaning to just point at him and then he Mets tried to help the 17-year-old but his friend pushed him away the affid Davis says Jesus dang oh jeez so it's just like a perfect storm he was trying to scare him but he also pulled the trigger is that why you do want to read the headline yeah pretty much yeah that's rough yeah that's ████ how is this related to business you said they were doing homecoming photos it was on a website that gives news and they have to sell ads in order to make their news stories popular poor kid man I know is he dead

3:24 no he's not dead oh thank God lucky happy right Happ silver lining how lucky to get a bullet in the face so is he going to be allowed to use a house for the homecoming pictures or what yeah probably I feel like you should but that's also like kind of weird because your face is up is it though where would you want to get shot if you had to get shot in the face oh like here oh yeah and you could just put like ear the you know when they put the you want to get dimple piercings yeah any other way I think you're ████ I think I think I was going to get shot on the face I would love for them to just like graze my nose and then it would be like that perfect reason to get like a nice little nose surgery if they get one of these better could your nose possibly be how much better have you been to Asia it's always a best looking guy talking about that stuff what are

4:14 you talking about you got I got that flat nose Asian thing you know what I'm talking about such a nice nose you got that long schlong you they you think that's a flat nose this is a flat nose yeah that guy needs to get shot in the nose when I turn this way brother it disappears but why would you want to get shot in the breathing app grazed right here just graced so you want him to be a good shot huh you're asking for an impossible shot you're asking for this that's way bigger there's more room for air like that's literally the same direction of the bullet I just happen to be a little be okay if you lost a m i I have a ████ half doll size of room for but you're also hoping none of your teeth get hit that's and your T you have a ████ needle size room for error you got like a nickel maybe a nickel you're looking for two points of entry and exit quarter at most that's it

5:05 though fine you want to make I'd rather have it go like this then just one just one it comes in you got Ang I'll be I'll be like Trump he shoots me and I turn around this at the perfect time and comes out of my mouth I'll do the Trump beer the Trump beer is probably best the Trum be H I always find it uh interesting when they say like they report someone got shot in the face because like can't you be more specific about when you get shot in the face like is it the cheek is it nose lips like when they say face are they just saying that like it's so I guess like it really got multiple don't they kind of just say things purposely vague too like just for maybe like privac so they're not like or do you think they would say it in a more dramatic fashion it's news right yeah they're not going to be like this Grays the tip of his nose with a 1% chance of if you try and

5:55 get the word count up then yeah well right say they always say like if only if he was one one inch to the left you know what I mean it would have killed them it's like well or up or down or to the right you got to add drama true yeah you do that is how they do it huh man face but he's 17 he has a he has a bright life ahead of him but what if it's one of the cool scars that like it's like it's like right here and it's like what did you get that for I got shot yeah and then for the rest of your life you got a cool scar yeah but the gangster is gone be like why' you get shot it's like I was trying to take homecoming photos people don't have to know that yeah but they're kind of like you leave that part out yeah yeah we're scoping out a house that's what you say yeah I feel like there's certain scars on the face that make you look really cool what's the worst one if the bullet just burned off your eyebrows what is or maybe just your eyes oh no it paralyzes half of your

6:45 face oh dude imagine it goes through just your eyes that's crazy and you're blind but then like scars like that aren't that cool unless you're like a like a if you're a nice guy it doesn't look look that well like in bar scenario it goes here and it breaks the two front teeth on the and you look like a jackal lter something tells me if this kid is on the homecoming planning committee he's not like a badass guy that would benefit from a a scar you ever get in any crazy trouble as a kid no liar you're a white boy from the valley you guys are crazy ████ extreme sports all day we're pretty chill really no way well he had cool parents it's different everything's well you were like working since for you were you were young right for a long time I think that keeps you out of trouble a lot if I didn't have a if like when I was in high school I would get in trouble when I just wasn't working when

7:36 bored all day yeah you're just hanging with your friends and your knucklehead friends don't have jobs that's why I'm for child labor yeah if I speak on it Joe dude I was begging for jobs at 13 nobody wanted to hire me well okay the first chance for anybody to get like any type of work was in elementary school being a paper boy remember that and in Nintendo had the game papery and my cin he meor it and was my practicing for my first J IED to be AER you practiced playing Paper yeah I didn't know I didn't even know where to get the job like I know there was like a The Daily Breeze newspaper in Torrance and ████ and I was like thinking maybe that's where I got to go to get a paper route but then I I had all these friends that had a paper route and I don't know I don't know what to do so I would get the you know how like sometimes it'll be coupons and then like the junk mail I

8:28 had all these friends that had paper up I didn't know what to I never asked them nobody gave you any int I didn't I didn't I just guessed but I would get the Penny Saver I would get these uh bundled up coupons and I would just go door to door and throw it at their house so you're littering I would just grab it from one house and then throw it at another house and pretend pretend that you're working pretend that I'm working by spreading people's mail yeah steal one guy's mail and I made my own paper route did you actually get up early to do that no I just went on my b so you did it in the middle of the day yeah I just had a bag of junk mail and I would just drive I mean ride around and throw it at people's house you just cosplaying as a paper I like the idea of picking up somebody's mail and throwing at the next guy's house like oh he he probably likes this every neighbor has to walk over to

9:20 the next house be like I think I got your mail I think I got your coupons but I have my did pay well nope and then I will go to theall and I would go to like every store and ask them if they're hiring and they would look at me and I think I was like 10 or 11 yeah I would go to the mall with my parents and they wouldn't know what I'm doing you know they don't know English they they think I'm asking them about a product you're asking for work yeah I'm asking for work dude like fourth fifth grade and then no one wanted to hire me cuz I was too young and I was like man that's why they should lower the child labor laws so guys like me can actually work work and then feel you know good about myself or or guys you could be a guy like him where your family owns the place and they just make you work no pay either way so what's your take for or

10:12 against child labor four four making my own kids work yeah that's fine that's not that's not child labor I believe in that that's called an apprenticeship yeah that's apprenticeship yeah that's teaching good values at an early age so wa your parents never paid you at the dry clean place ever ████ no not even one thing no way I I got to eat dinner God that's how they got that's pretty good imigrant business Vietnamese dinner that's that's delicious
