Speaker 1: Charlade, some donkey to days just saw themselves. Ready, I
Speaker 1: never heard them.
Speaker 2: Dunkey said it again, Charlama, Yes you are.
Speaker 1: Charlottelage the same. That's true.
Speaker 2: Don'get to day for Tuesday, January thirtieth goes to a
Speaker 2: Chicago man named Mohammad Work who I think I pronounce
Speaker 2: his name right.
Speaker 1: Soon's everybody in Chicago. Now.
Speaker 2: This is a very interesting story to me because a
Speaker 2: model that I live by is something my grandmother and
Speaker 2: mother always told me, and that is man as will
Speaker 2: take you where money won't. I believe that wholeheartedly. I
Speaker 2: think that it costs nothing to be kind and people
Speaker 2: will always remember.
Speaker 1: How you made them feel.
Speaker 2: Okay, people will forget things you did, they will forget
Speaker 2: things you said, but they will never forget how you
Speaker 2: made them feel. Remember that, Okay. When I tell you
Speaker 2: this story, I tell all the youngs around me, all
Speaker 2: my nieces and nephews. When you working with people, but
Speaker 2: you want to be sad about you when you leave them,
Speaker 2: is that you were a pleasure to work with Because
Speaker 2: once again, manners will take you where money won't.
Speaker 1: That's right. Bad manners close open doors.
Speaker 2: Good manners will make you matter in life, your manners
Speaker 2: open doors that you know your beauty can't open and
Speaker 2: buy you things your money can. Okay, and this brother
Speaker 2: Muhammad Work who clearly believes the same. See Muhammad is
Speaker 2: a bank robber, Ladies and gentlemen. Yes, I can confidently
Speaker 2: call him a bank robber because he robbed two banks. Okay,
Speaker 2: once is a coincidence, twice as a pattern, and he
Speaker 2: did it twice.
Speaker 1: But he didn't just do it.
Speaker 2: See he walked into one bank with a note that
Speaker 2: said pay it back soon and then less than seventy
Speaker 2: two hours after he was acquitted of uh and this
Speaker 2: was less than seventy two hours after he was acquitted
Speaker 2: of committing a similar bank robbery.
Speaker 1: Okay, gather around, let me tell you the story.
Speaker 2: See two years ago Muhammad Worked who walked into a
Speaker 2: local bank and pressed a note against the glass that
Speaker 2: read give me the money, please, thank you, And he
Speaker 2: left with five hundred and ninety five dollars. He was
Speaker 2: found about a half hour later with about one hundred
Speaker 2: dollars less in the note that said give me the
Speaker 2: money please thank you, still in this possession. Okay, But
Speaker 2: let me tell you why our court system is flawed.
Speaker 2: Because in court, work Who's attorney argued that even though
Speaker 2: he committed a crime, it did not amount the robbery
Speaker 2: because she said robbery involved stealing something by force or intimidation.
Speaker 2: So his attorney married judge claimed there was no implicit
Speaker 2: or explicit threats of any kind. Who knew you could
Speaker 2: go into a bank just be nice, Just be polite
Speaker 2: and ask for what you want and you shall receive it.
Speaker 1: Well, look at this.
Speaker 2: If you have ever been refused credit or alone, all
Speaker 2: you had to do was be nice. If you got
Speaker 2: a history of mispayments, the possible fraudulent activity on your life,
Speaker 2: don't worry about it. You can still get alan. Just
Speaker 2: smile and say give me all the money please.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: By the way, a jury agreed with his lawyer, and
Speaker 2: work Who, who was thirty one years old, was released
Speaker 2: from custody this past Friday. So one Monday afternoon, armed
Speaker 2: with his new knowledge of juital system, empowered by the
Speaker 2: fact that he didn't do anything because he was nice
Speaker 2: about it, he then walked into another bank and handing
Speaker 2: an employer a note that said, please give me the money.
Speaker 1: I'll pay it back soon.
Speaker 2: Banker's gift, Yes, gife I don't know if he was
Speaker 2: trying to spell give a gift, but he said banker's
Speaker 2: gift gife. I don't know what he meant, was a
Speaker 2: gift to give anyway, bankers give me in advance. Well,
Speaker 2: it worked again, and the bank teller gave work Who
Speaker 2: more than two thousand dollars and allowed him to walk
Speaker 2: out before calling the police.
Speaker 1: First of all, dropping the clues bombs for that bank tellerphone.
Speaker 2: I'm so glad you didn't try to be a hero,
Speaker 2: because that bank ain't dying for you.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: Chase is simply the name of a bank. It is
Speaker 2: not an action you should do when someone robs one. Okay,
Speaker 2: just let them walk away. Now, let me continue to
Speaker 2: explain this story. The teler described work who is wearing
Speaker 2: a surgical mask, neon green gloves, and a neon green
Speaker 2: win a cap. Investigators later found Surveiller's footage of a
Speaker 2: man wearing guess what, the green hat, the gloves, and
Speaker 2: buying clothing a backpack at a nearby Target store, so
Speaker 2: they arrested him just about half an hour after the
Speaker 2: alleged robbery, with two hundred dollars less than what he
Speaker 2: had been given at the bank.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 2: You know how I know Mohammad doesn't think he's committing
Speaker 2: any crimes because in both cases he didn't try to
Speaker 2: get rid of any evidence, still wearing the clothes he
Speaker 2: committed the crime, man still holding on to the note
Speaker 2: that he used to commit the crime. And now he
Speaker 2: is set to be charged with both bank robbery and
Speaker 2: bank theft, which do not require force or intimidation. His lawyer,
Speaker 2: who got him off initially married judge, says that this
Speaker 2: is a more appropriate charging decision. In fact, she said
Speaker 2: because of the jury is not guilty verdict. I believe
Speaker 2: the government is now charging both bank robbery and bank theft,
Speaker 2: and a case where there is not evidence of force
Speaker 2: or threat of force. I think they have to throw
Speaker 2: the book at the man simply because you have to
Speaker 2: make an example.
Speaker 1: Are you going to have a generation of polite.
Speaker 2: Well mannered crooks right thinking they can get away with
Speaker 2: crimes simply by saying please and thank you? And that's
Speaker 2: not how any of this works. Because here's the thing.
Speaker 2: People judg on how they act, not what they say.
Speaker 2: Folks can say anything, remember what I said earlier? People
Speaker 2: will forget you know what you said? Okay, But they
Speaker 2: won't forget how you made them feel. You have to
Speaker 2: follow that up with actions. If you have manners and
Speaker 2: you say please and thank you but then do something foul,
Speaker 2: that's not good manners. Okay, having good man is being polite, helpful,
Speaker 2: and respectful the others shows you have self respect.
Speaker 1: But robbing someone after you say please and thank you
Speaker 1: shows you do not. Please. Give Mohammed a work? Who
Speaker 1: the sweet sounds of the hamiltones?
Speaker 2: Oh no, you are the.
Speaker 3: Dog, the dogee all the day.
Speaker 2: Yee.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like when folks say no disrespect.
Speaker 2: But but I think instead of saying no disrespect, you
Speaker 2: should just be like, please, man, I disrespect you.
Speaker 1: Please man, please this expect you. I'll apologize for it later.
Speaker 1: That's what it feels like.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, thank you for that, dunkey to day. Yes,
Speaker 4: all right, now, when we come back, let's open up
Speaker 4: the phone lines. Eight hundred five eight five one oh
Speaker 4: five one. Shout to Michael Blackton, comedian you know, friends
Speaker 4: to the room. He put a question out yesterday. He says,
