Lowe Expectations

Butter Knife Protection, Abandoned Post, 30x30, and a Violent Foot Pursuit

In normal fashion this episode hits on several topics. 
-Gary tells a story about using a butter knife as protection just in case a sociopath decided to try and kill him.
-A Secret Service agent allegedly left her post to nurse her baby which leads to discussion about concerning aspects about the 30x30 initiative. It sounds nice but is it really a good initiative for law enforcement?
-Anthony and Gary provide some context and expertise to a Chicago PD foot pursuit that ended violently. (https://www.chicagocopa.org/case/2024-0005768/)
Was it justified? Why is only some video made easily available? Does a bad outcome mean the use of force was excessive? They answer these questions and more.

Have you ever accidentally hurt your child? The hosts share their own parenting mishaps that are both relatable and hilariously painful.

Diagnosing Time Blindness And FBI Marching For Pride

In this episode of Lowe Expectations, Anthony and Gary dive into the intriguing concept of "time blindness," a term that's recently surfaced as a cognitive condition. They discuss its implications, how it differs from laziness, and the societal obsession with diagnosing everything. AI wrote the last sentence...ultimately they destroy the idea of time blindness which actually appears to mean a lack of discipline.
The conversation extends to the role of law enforcement in social movements, particularly the participation of FBI agents in a pride parade. They analyze the potential erosion of public trust when police departments engage in social ideologies while in uniform.
Additionally, they touch on the shocking expenses of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson's hair and makeup, totaling $30,000 in a year, and the ramifications of such expenditures on taxpayer trust.
Tune in for a critical and thought-provoking discussion on societal trends, law enforcement neutrality, and the importance of personal responsibility.

This episode features a mash-up of recent current events, many of which are out of Chicago/Illinois.

Is Law Enforcement Drifting Off Mission By Appeasing Evil

On this episode Gary and Anthony discuss the appeasement and pacification in law enforcement that is helping to drive mission drift in the profession. Anthony discusses when he first observed this happening in the early 2000's and how it has now led to law enforcement engaging in the appeasement and approval of evil. 
To prove the point they provide examples. One example discussed is the Denver, Colorado migrant crisis and the other is the transgender law in CA that is moving males into female prisons. This is a hard hitting episode that we hope will motivate critical thinking and desire for truth. As usual Gary also has to talk about how he wants to cook a chicken and they provide a public service announcement on old man ear hair to keep some levity in the midst of some heavy topics.
