- This is James O'Brien's fiery call with a man who says that the Black Lives Matter movement has gone too far, as he prepares to go to London to protect statues from vandalism.
Black Lives Matter demonstrators are returning to London this weekend to continue their protests that got out of hand with a minority of protesters last week.
But a group of counter-protesters, including Tommy Robinson, have pledged to travel to the capital to stand guard by Winston Churchill's statue.
Lee called in to say that he will be one of those people protecting the monuments and said he felt it is going to descend into black v white violence.
He said: "It's putting a bigger divide over race. There's going to be trouble between black and white people. It's coming."
But James pointed out: "No, it's not going to be divided by race any more than your friendship group is.
"What are you cross about?"

As an American watching these interviews, I really wish that we had more personalities on our airwaves that tore people people's ignorance down with logic like this rather than just shouting over them
The cool, calm and collected manner of an educated Brit always gives me comfort.
@Alex Green - Have found they couldn't care less about logic. Scratch the surface and they want the same things as us, but all they know are chants and slogans.
When the audience isn't sophisticated, screaming sells.
had em for years. No One listened that mattered.
In the US, you have podcasts offered by the Atheist Community of Austin (ACA). It's about 20 years now for "Atheist Experience". There are now several different call in shows with different hosts, and different approaches on the platform. They focus less on politics, and more on epistemology.

@Lynette Agueda Marxism is the belief that people are in two categories the aggressors and the victims, if theres any disparity in stats its not necessarily racism

Do you agree with statues being pulled down? Including that of Winston Churchill?

You appear to be worried about these statues. Without looking it up, can you name three?
I always wondered why James is squinting so much. And then it ocurred to me: he's trying to see the point these callers try to make.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
haha , nah it's the two computer monitors on his desk (touch screens) whch throw up twitter responses and fact check stuff for him - it's why he sometimes waves his hand behind the camera - he's using hand signals to tell them to do X or Y etc.
Absolutely brilliant!
🤣🤣🤣
Lol! Love it.
When you feel the need to say 'I have black friends' you're not on the rights side of things

Actually, it's when they say "I have black friends, but...". I love my many black friends, and I would never use them to further a debate in a negative way. I do appreciate your sentiment, however.
Of course he goes right to the “I’ve got black friends” line 😂
He must mean Priti Patel.
My girlfriends cousins boyfriend's friend had a black neighbor🤣🤣🤣
I can’t be a murderer because some of my friends are alive…….
I bet this chap has black friends (people that are of color near him are his “friends “)
He should have been asked if he thought their lives matter.
I’ve got black friends...never a bigger 🚩 ..

Having no black friends is worse, surely?
I haven't got one 😁
Not really a red flag but also not really needed to be said. Your allowed an opinion even without black friends

I don’t think many people who were ignoring it in 2014 are ignoring it any less nowadays. This guy was likely complaining like this years ago, it just wasn’t in the news.

I wonder how his black friends feel about him marching up to London to protect the states of the people that enslaved their ancestors. Threw live people into the sea to be eaten by sharks because they were surplus to requirements. Made the children of their ancestors slaves from the day they were born. Whipped them, hung them at their whims. Personally if I was one of his black friends I would disown him.
I think we all know that he doesn't have any black friends.
The problem is that, they have black friends who comform to what their standard of a black person should be, they find it very hard to understand other people who don't comform to that standard
Soso Lawson
No, he doesn’t have black friends. He probably knows people that are black, but that’s not the same. He’s almost certainly never asked their opinion on stuff like this.
Would you have a problem if a statue of Emperor Nero was put up in London?
Jamie why?
Lee (the caller) is more concerned about inanimate objects than he is about the lives of black people. Extraordinary.
He’s worried about people using BLM to promote anarchy and destroy statues that mean a lot to people in the UK. In a way James agrees with him, that white middle class youths have been using BLM to vandalise public property
Hes more concerned about our history and the right to preserve it
@@mikehooper8868 you can preserve history without building monuments to worship white supremacists.
Because as he said, they've been there so long. Guess we black people were invented after the statues of white supremacists. Smdh
@@richardellis8076 Or you can just preserve history, remember history will repeat itself if we forget it, plus it's our history and culture and its being destroyed at every turn maybe some of us white British want to preserve our heritage, most people in the 16th and 17th centuries were white supremacists and now we know of their ignorance we won't repeat it unless done onto us which is happening right now.
"I've got black friends" a phrase almost exclusively spoken by people who don't have black friends. 🤷♂️

As an American, I would like to say that I'm relieved and frightened that this kind of stupidity isn't solely an American problem.
LOL right? Like do they have some nonsense they've got to worry about? Like the impending economic consequences of Brexit? At least you have public healthcare in GB.
its a global phenomenon. Its life. You live it, and you will constantly encounter those with differing viewpoints and opinions as well as those who blurt stuff out but can't 'explain themselves'. Its life. You get one only, just live yours forget about those who disagree with you :-)

@@matttran7161 Brexit and anti-BLM are in the same vein. Racism has no boundaries.

I'm an American who started watching Premier League 7 years ago and the amount of abuse black players have taken from "supporters" in the seats is atrocious. I don't understand why it was allowed to happen as long as it was before the league started banning them.
I like the football but learned to never go unless you're straight and white. The amount of times I've been ganged up on and abused is ridicu
Go look up grooming gang scandal in Rotherham England and you will find that's not all that's allowed
Because white, that's why.
This is the example of being a hypocrite with a touch of double standard. Wow.
Did he say”I’ve got black friends!”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I believe a brilliant question to ask would be "What about the Jimmy Saville statue? Why was it ok that one was taken down? It's a part of history too"
That is exactly the question I have asked many people "why wouldn't you want a statue of Jimmy Savile in your town?, and make the link..
My response would be that what Jimmy saville did broke moral standards of the time, colston didn't break any moral or legal codes of his time. Looking back we can say slavery was bad but at the time it was normal, we can't judge historical people by the same luxurious standards we hold today.
@@oyoyism Pretty sure they knew at the time it was extremely wrong to own and exploit people. And that's what matters. Not what was accepted by parts of society at the time.
@@oyoyism it wasn't morally wrong to kidnap and enslave people?! Yes it was just some (rich and powerful) people didn't gaf back then.
honestly statues in general are pretty tacky, one of the ultimate demonstrations of man's hubris
that look at mount rushmore, men so arrogant they thought their faces should be carved into a mountain
“ I got black friends” makes me want to scream…
He won’t have any black friends after they hear this.
His Black “friends” are acquaintances or colleagues who “see” him and acknowledge him in an effort to keep the peace as it were.
People like this never actually have any meaningful genuine friendships with Black people. They don’t really want to.

So is common sense and fairness, neither of which o'Brien has an ounce of
“I’ll be out there during a pandemic I think is very important to hurt anyone who tries to do anything to this inanimate object that honors something I think was wrong!”
As soon as anyone says "I've got black friends", you instantly know that they haven't!
Or they do, but that doesnt mean they arent biased
@@flyguyry1 No, if they are biased then those "friends" aren't really friends.
@@sierraromeoromeo2444 no, i have like 50 black friends. Ive been in their weddings. Ive lived with them. Ive been to their countries of birth. Ive dated black women. And Im still biased. Bc im white and live in a white dominated society. Im less biased than most white ppl i would say, but still biased. The thing is, i admit my bias. Almost all whites cant. And we cant challenge our bias and start to heal if we first dont admit we have it. Even that white guy who raised a black daughter wrote about how he was biased against black people. It permeates every aspect of our society. Especially the media. As white people, we cant NOT be biased. It sux. But the only way to improve is to acknowlege it so when we do see black ppl and it makes us feel "uncomfortable" we say in our minds, "thats just my bias, not reality."
For me. I am white. I am generally liberal in things. But this blm thing. i am tired now of being preached to. I done many things in my life with women, friends, work, interacting with black people and this constant barrage of the same message. Its getting hysterical. Things need to calm down. People should stop acting like social justice warriors and just chill out
I’ve known a guy for years that only befriends black conservatives who claim racism isn’t a thing anymore so that he can say racism is over. It’s incredibly disturbing.
Oh dear, this level of racisim is endemic in this country, I wonder which way he voted in the referendum.
I wonder which way you voted and how white your neighbourhood is.
Probably didn't vote - he couldn't spell "X'...
Sadly, racism and bigotry are Worldwide and at high levels.
White supremacy organisations are recruiting online. And, during covid, millions of people who didn’t want to wear a mask started getting ads for white pride sites and QAnon.
Racism is a Pandemic.
Its human nature, when have people calling for black pride then white people will do the same for their pride and whatever else racial lines from other groups
THats obvious
😂😂😂😂 When he said, "I've got black friends" I began laughing hysterically and I haven't been able to stop yet.
You know the mentality of a person when they say “I have got black friends”
OMG if everyone asks questions the way this brother does, the world would be a far better place. Just discovered this show as well and it is an impressive play of Logic that he displays. We need a guy/ show like this in North America to dismantle the utter none sense taking over this hemisphere by ignorant politicians and their followers of all stripes.
I agree with you about asking these king of questions.sad thing is people of color have been asking and marching to these kind of question for years but we can't hear them because people get so bent out of shape when it comes from us.
You say this but James has been doing this for years and yet still has a steady stream of ignorant bigots phoning in!
David Pakman is similar.

Look at how defensive James gets when the guys says black people committed crimes
He doesn’t like facts does he...
Ita incredible that white people get more offended than the minorities about minorities issues.
@mr jinks Before, you would just look away when it was about minority issues....Somehow something changed. How interesting.
It wasn't defensive. It was about maintaining integrity of a possible prosecution. He was actually trying to stop the lad getting in to trouble.
So either that doesn't suit your position and you ignore it, or, you don't know what most words mean.
Greetings yo yo...

I'm sure he's the kind of guy who complains about foreigners stealing "our jobs" as well.
Best one I've ever seen was an English man living in benidorm praising the Spanish hospitals for not having immigrants clogging up the queue
I guarantee you he doesnt have a job himself.
The "I have black friends" line is hilarious lol, that dude doesn't have one single black friend!
He probably describes them to other people as 'that black guy I was talking to'

Funny enough I did and thought that was an exception. I commented somewhere on one of those videos that James o Brien started by huffing and puffing and finished with a question clearly designed to trap JRM but which JRM didn't rise to. My comment didn't elicit much sympathy, probably because most people on CZcams know how to champion their heroes without actually giving a fair assessment. I'm someone who agrees with James o Brien against JRM but he was still poor in interviewing him.

@Cian MacGana Ghandi did change though
We need to remove the colosseum
@Cian MacGana take down all statues. That's not a strange take. Statues are just advertising for dead people. If there is a need to put up a statue chances are that person was probably a bit of a c**t somewhere along the line.
@Cian MacGana Jimmy Saville did a lot for kids. Let's put up a statue of him?
Replying to Black Lives Matter with "All lives matter" is the same as claiming that deforestation doesn't need to be addressed because the three trees in your back yard are thriving. It's basically bringing an issue to the forefront that needs attention now. Claiming that black lives matters is not claiming that any other lives don't, no more than claiming your front, driver's side tire needs air is admitting that the other three tires don't need any at all.

Not far enough in my opinion.
What made this apparently striking is the caller wanted to go out and protect statues, even if he didn't know the history behind said statutes. He even said 'but that's history' (paraphrase) What have we become!
40 years of right wing press, Tory agenda of lowering education standards despite the hard work of teachers. And deliberately keeping those areas starved of resources. They are winning so far. Hence a Brexit, hence Johnson up there impersonating a Prime Minister. Hence people saying, this is terrible! We need change! And then voting for the very party that brought about the terrible conditions they want to change!
The beauty of James style is he very rarely makes any statements. Rather he asks questions and doesn't move on until they are honesty answered, making any cognitive dissonance very apparent.

He even tries to hold the rope back now and again, in the hopes they'll see that they're about to hang themselves on national radio, but they're just too stubborn to listen to James and let him explain to them what they're doing wrong and why, they then, blame James for the fact that *they're there, just about to hang themselves,* then they yank the last bit of rope from his hands, and release the trapdoor and fall to their inevitable demise. 🤷🏽♀️

What issues do black people face in the UK?
If you don't like the history of a certain country just go somewhere else.
So we should be okay with having statues celebrating war criminals and slavers? I thought Britain was a county that fought against injustice, not one that celebrates it. Maybe I was mistaken.
If only the British Empire took your advice.
@Joe Toff I'm just responding to the "if you dont like the history go elsewhere" comment which implies that the british empire did not go to other people and force their history upon them. It's an elementary argument.
I don't think i'll bother with LBC now that Farage has gone. Most of the presenters are thoroughly dislikable.
Yep....No echo chamber for you now😥

james is probably the most bias person out their.he is the only person who can turn the words this guy was trying to get over.Horrible man i thought presenters were supposed to be impartial,his pal diane abbott has gone very quiet when black youths attack the police in her own area ,this is going to get a lot worse because mandella will have to come down and gahndi also.then she will reappear
I get the feeling that all the people who suddenly care about preserving statues have never spent more than two seconds glancing at a statue in their lives. If it was to do with libraries they'd all be acting like they care about books. Bunch of lying hypocrites.
Brits and Americans should be reminded what happened the last time a people were not represented in government.
All you'd have to do to reverse this callers position is re-frame it. "Why should this man who treated people terribly have a statue up of him just because he was wealthy?!". He obviously has no reasoned connection to his position, it's all following his peer and emotional attachments to it.
"We've put children up chimneys for years too but that doesn't make it right." 😆
All lives matter should create unity not divisions
I find this caller's attitude menacing on a couple of levels, listening to him I was transported back to London of the 1980s where casual racism and bigotry were part of everyday conversation. Living in London as I did then and being a Scot was also not immune to a certain degree of abuse.
However, living in London was the only time in my life I had ever felt really threatened. One incident was when I was with an Irish and Black coworker in a bar and a small mob came up to us and said we don't let N*gger Micks of Jocks drink here. Were it not for the intervention of the barmaid I'm sure it could have gotten very messy.
When I left London to work on the continent in 1998 I had hoped that such a degree of racism and bigotry were in the past. But sadly it seems under this Tory government these people have once again felt confident and safe enough to crawl back out from underneath their rocks.
Mr Farage has jumped ship. He could see the way LBC is going. A mouthpiece for the Hard Left.
@swave158 Farage was what ever the deluded want or need him to be right now lol
@swave158 You thought wrong.
Yeah, LBC are heading the wrong way. He's better off just appearing on Mayhar Tousi's channel or something in between helping thedonald win this autumn
Caller: you're right!!
If it was said BLMT (Black Lives Matter Too) people like him will have something negative to say as well.
I cannot take anymore - someone get me out of here - but it is like an addiction when people tie themselves in knots. :-)
What is O'brien worried about?
EVERYTHING!
He has to disagree with every caller!!
TOSSA!!!!
bread and butter
lowest common denominator
O'Brien never talks back to a BAME caller
No, the nauseating, smug, champagne-socialist hypocrite only disagrees with callers who aren't nauseating, smug, champagne-socialist hypocrites. He hung on every word of the ghastly Gina Miller when she was on his show.
@@katyhibbert292 I can't fault that.
5:23 "what you going to be doing tomorrow?", "Stopping anyone attacking statues!". LOL
Imagine a rando British guy caring about taking Confederate statues down (then later says "We're not in America") when most of those statues were put up during the Civil Rights Movement as a REACTION to the Civil Rights Movement.
"I'm not worried about anything I'm just cross"..................LOL
O'Bighead is a verbally manipulative bully.

Well done JAMES, handle fragile minds gently mate.😑👍
This James is a prat full stop
@@garystokes6407 so is your grammar.
Imagine being James's black friends (if they actually exist) imagine him ranting and raving how a statue of a slaver is more important than their basic human rights. If only this energy directed at preserving statues of slavers was actually directed at the push for equality just imagine what we could achieve. You want the statue there because you believe the 'natural order' of things to be that black people should be under the foot or knee of the white man, that's the only reason you want it to remain. To remind us minorities of 'our place'.
I have always wanted to care about white people's feelings when I am trying to highlight the injustices perpetuated on me by other white people 🤔
Haha! You shouldn't. Hurting one's feelings based on ignorante and misplaced views is the only way to get through to them. It might take a day, a month or even a life time, but it's the only way✌️
@@padzzz9377 I could not agree with you more but when you see the blushing of those cheeks & the tears forming in those blue/green eyes ,one cannot help but feel a twinge of something 😜
What injustices perpetuated on you.
@@ntandosekay see you want to provoke and attack white ppl.msybe you should just leave white people alone
Did you have something specific happen to you or is this a generalised injustice perpetuated by all white people in general?
In general, we need this guys voice herd everyday in America. From this conversation to political American conversations this man just understands moral. Something that’s now set aside in the general American public and government.
The problem with James is that he is too leftist, he carries the view that everything that’s happening is ok and we shouldn’t worry about things, watch his interview with Piers. He spends the entire interview asking piers why anything he says matters and then tells piers he needs to talk about things that matter …
Love this dude. “Just the facts, ma’am.” James be spitting the truth, Ruth!
Not a single person in US mainstream corporate media ever speaks with this kind of honesty.
Perfect example of someone made to feel strongly about something just because someone else said it's important....
He should have asked James shall we knock down the Pyramids as they were built by slaves.
@Ramsay77 just do a quick internet search about that. You are wrong, fool.
@@wallywaldo5638 They were from the blood of slaves the evidence suggesting they were not from a google search is usually from the Egyptian government.
O'Brien is a joke.
We need O’Brian , he stokes the fire of racism that would be forgotten without him
@@markevans2280 no we don't
Hey Lee, when are you going to start demanding they put back up the Jimmy Savile statue?
The caller sounded, shall we say...a bit simple...
They always do really, and the craziest thing is these morons are allowed to vote 😂
silly london accent
i've got black friends . . . did he really say that???????
