1. Introduction to the Incident and Nextdoor App Debate

In this episode of Holmberg's Morning Sickness, host John Holmberg brings attention to a disturbing incident that unfolded on the Nextdoor App, a popular neighborhood social network. The discussion centers around a pedophile who was caught in a four-year-old girl's bedroom, triggering a heated debate among community members about appropriate responses to such threats.

John Holmberg [01:42]:

"I was on Nextdoor App...they had this thing, this dude had all his video cameras at his house...a drunken drug addict...walks into their daughter's room...and it's all videotaped."

Holmberg describes how the family had set up comprehensive security measures, including multiple video cameras, yet the intruder managed to enter their home. The incident was recorded, showing the intruder with his pants down in the young girl's room, leading to immediate community outrage.

2. Community Reactions and the Gun Debate

The incident sparked intense discussions among Nextdoor users, particularly regarding the use of firearms for self-defense. Opinions were sharply divided between advocates for non-violent resolutions and those supporting armed intervention to prevent such invasions.

John Holmberg [03:00]:

"That dude should have had his head blown off or at least been bounced off the blocks in the backyard."

Some community members expressed extreme reactions, suggesting lethal force as a necessary measure to protect children and families. Others weighed in with opinions on gun ownership and the right to defend one’s home, reflecting broader national debates on gun control.

John Holmberg [04:00]:

"He won't have made it out of my house...even if I couldn't get my gun, it's over."

These comments highlight the polarization of opinions, with some users believing that armed defense is essential, while others caution against the potential for escalation and unintended consequences.

3. Host's Perspectives and Personal Opinions

John Holmberg shares his personal stance on the matter, advocating for a more aggressive approach to handling such threats. He emphasizes the importance of being prepared and willing to use firearms if necessary to ensure the safety of one's family.

John Holmberg [07:15]:

"If I can get to a 12 gauge, which I have readily available, yep, I'm going to at the very least aim it."

Holmberg criticizes the family's non-violent response, suggesting that decisive action could have prevented further intrusion and potential harm. He reflects on the societal implications of such debates, questioning the current state of community solidarity and the effectiveness of passive measures in addressing serious threats.

John Holmberg [05:17]:

"No matter how I feel, I would have handled it differently."

4. Transition to Personal Anecdotes and Humor

After delving into the serious topic of community safety and gun debates, the conversation shifts to lighter, more humorous personal anecdotes. Holmberg shares a nostalgic and exaggerated story about his experiences with a former teacher, Mrs. Miller, bringing levity to the discussion.

John Holmberg [10:37]:

"Onion coffee. Can you imagine your boss's breath drinking onion coffee?"

He humorously describes Mrs. Miller's quirky habits, such as her preference for onion-flavored coffee and her over-the-top teaching methods, painting a vivid picture of his school days with comedic flair.

5. Conclusion

The episode concludes with the hosts continuing their banter, blending serious discussions with personal stories and humor. This mix maintains the show's signature engaging and entertaining style, leaving listeners both informed and amused.

[John Holmberg]

I was on next door app, which I'm not allowed to comment on, although I think I, I think, I think that's been lifted.

[Unknown Speaker]

The ban has been.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. Also I noticed my next door app starting to get a little too big. I got to set the parameters again. Like it snuck out into Tempe and stuff. I don't care what's going on in Tempe, that's not next door. That's a long drive. So they had this thing, this dude had all his video cameras at his house. And these people, I don't know them, but this is a nightmare and I feel horrible for them. And some doughy, fat, drunken drug addict pops in the middle of the night, walks in their daughter's room, his pants are down, daughter's like four and it's all videotaped. And they hear him and chase him out and there's no violence or anything. The dude goes to their backyard, you see the camera in the backyard. And he climbs their fence, he's blasted, gone, and just walked into their house, into their four year old daughter's room. Everybody on the comments started, this is why we'll never ever have a society again. Everyone on the comments said, man, the fact he walked out of your house surprises me. That dude should have had his head blown off or at least been bounced off the blocks in the backyard. And then it started. The idea of this family going through what they went through wasn't enough for people. Like the dude posted the thing as a warning, like, hey, keep an eye out for this dude, he's out there. Then they started getting mad at him for not killing him and crushing him up against the wall. So he's still a threat, he's still out there. This dude's still out there. And then somebody, then it just became this gun debate because one guy came on and said, I have. That dude wouldn't have made it out of my house. I'm sorry, that dude pants down, he's not making it out of my daughter's room. Even if I couldn't get my gun, it's over. And then somebody says, great, show your daughter that violence solves everything. And it went sideways. There was nothing more about we can't have society anymore would have solved that. There's a certain. And I agree with that, but I, you know, why even make the comp. Oh, now your four year old daughter with an intruder and his pants down in the room gets to see what violence looks like. Well, what happens? And then her argument was, what if he, what if he knocked? And then another argument. This was a good one. Another one said he looked too drunk to do anything bad to his daughter in the first place. Like just because you, that's okay. Just because you can't get it up doesn't mean hands don't work or weird stuff like your daughter's traumatized. No matter what, shooting him, probably gonna traumatize just about everybody, but at least you stopped it from getting any further. And then the one lady's like, well. And we saw what happened once the adults got in the room. He ran away. So no harm, no foul. What? What is wrong with every good thing.

[Brady]

I wasn't on there.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah, I know. Oh, no. And I'm not allowed to make comments on the next man.

[Unknown Speaker]

No one commented how calm and cool and collect they would be. Honey, close your eyes and plug your ears right now.

[John Holmberg]

We're definitely. The noise will make. Get my daughter out of the. Excuse me, sir, I have to.

[Unknown Speaker]

Hang on one second.

[John Holmberg]

I have to assemble my family away from you before I shoot you in the face. You might not have your gun. You might not have a gun, but there's a bat or a stick or a magazine. You can roll up something.

[Brady]

Magazine.

[Unknown Speaker]

Was he a cocker span?

[John Holmberg]

I don't know. That hurts. You ever been hit by a magazine? That's a weapon, man. If you get a good.

[Unknown Speaker]

If you ball, you roll up a Uline catalog. You don't take somebody out.

[John Holmberg]

You don't spank them with it. You do a. Like a. A hammer fish, right?

[Brady]

Spanking like, you know, like the newspaper or something.

[John Holmberg]

Something.

[Unknown Speaker]

You can get their attention with the first swat. And then I like your eye poke.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, right to the nose, right. Bam.

[Brady]

That I could see that you were.

[John Holmberg]

Swatting it like, oh, all sorts of.

[Brady]

Stuff can be a weapon, 80kb weekend or something.

[John Holmberg]

A lamp, a pillow. For God's sake, take the kid's pillow, just mash him in the head. That's a big whip. And then start beating the tar out of him. But that here nor there. No matter how I feel, I would have handled it. The argument began that we can't get outside of a dude standing in a four year old girl room with her pants off without having a gun debate. Like we all can't. We can't all sit back and unite and go, I don't know. That's a horrible situation. Maybe I hate guns, maybe I don't. But that dude's taking a beating and I'm not. I'm not. There were people on that guy's side. This is a product of America and its current situation. How sad it is. These people need help. That dude doesn't need any help. What happened to us?

[Brady]

Well, then take him in if he.

[John Holmberg]

Needs that much help. Exactly.

[Brady]

Bleeding hard.

[John Holmberg]

Say your prayers.

[Unknown Speaker]

When I got my crossbow on me.

[John Holmberg]

I'm for anything that stops it. I actually felt bad for the family. They didn't shoot him or beat him up, but they got him out of the bedroom. Mission accomplished for me. I would have handled it differently, I think. I think I would have gotten violent. That's okay too. If you're passive and you're, you know, against violence and you got him out of the room, whatever you did work, you sent them off into society again. That sucks, right? Like what? Right? That's. It's alphabetical. Passive, pussifist. It's the same thing. I'm not saying I agree with your pussy ways. I'm saying I can empathize with you. For as a human being, this is me. My heart is black like Kingsford. It's dark. And I'm the one that was sitting there going, nobody has any feelings for this family. They're arguing on whether or not that dude who broke into their house and pulled his pants down should have, should get help. No matter what happened here, let's just be happy that it didn't get any further. No matter what the method was. Shoot him in the head, chase him away, whatever.

[Unknown Speaker]

Guys at Ory's like, ugh, he ain't making it out of my bedroom. You ever shot anybody? No, but I'm telling you, he ain't making it anyway.

[John Holmberg]

I'm pretty sure, dude in my house, maybe I don't shoot, but he's, he's at the other end of a gun. That's just the way I'm gonna deal with it. If I can get to a 12 gauge, which I have readily available, yep, I'm, I'm going to at the very least aim it. And if you are going to do that, you better be able to pull that trigger. Because if you're gonna play guns, you can have one taken away from you too. And the argument of, ah, he was too drunk to get it up is the worst thing I've ever read in my life.

[Unknown Speaker]

I asked him and he said, yeah.

[John Holmberg]

I got whiskey D. Yeah, I got whiskey dick. I was never a threat. That's why when I broke into your house, you just should have let me lay down and sleep it off. I don't know if I could actually shoot. I'm pretty sure I could shoot that guy the other day with the process server banging on my door. But for the most part, always like.

[Unknown Speaker]

To think that if some, especially if someone's coming at you aggressive with their doing something, you'd like to think you could defend yourself.

[John Holmberg]

Well, again, it's that react defense stuff I talk about all the time. Like, that dude wouldn't have made it very far with or without the gun. And I don't care how drunk he is. Oh, and the other one was a lady's like, okay, so you're just going to beat up an intoxicated man.

[Unknown Speaker]

Yes.

[John Holmberg]

Who can barely walk because you're such a man. And she was basically calling out this guy's manhood. And that dude said exactly what Brett did. Yep.

[Unknown Speaker]

Sure would.

[John Holmberg]

Nothing's happening to my daughter. Y he's. I'm not only that, as he's down, I'm going to keep beating him. Okay, teacher, teach your daughter that violence solves everything. In this particular case it does. Absolutely. I agree. But I also think, you know what? I want to hang out with this guy. They got it done without touching him. Which is another thing for me. I don't like food trucks or touching drunk strangers.

[Unknown Speaker]

You might have done that, Brett. You might have escorted him out of the house with the gun. Get out of here. Oh, just be on your way cuz I ain't getting involved in this. I sold.

[John Holmberg]

I'll tell you this.

[Brady]

No, there ain't going to be no silent witness calls for me.

[John Holmberg]

Bret have escorted him to a riverbed eventually.

[Brady]

You ever seen Lake Mead?

[John Holmberg]

Yeah.

[Brady]

Take a four hour tour.

[John Holmberg]

Take a little four and a half hour drive with your drunk ass. You should be sober by the time you realize what's happening.

And then somebody else said, onion coffee. Can you imag your boss's breath drinking onion coffee? Brady says it's a hot new drink. I say it's banned in most office teachers. No, no, no. Oh, my God. Mrs. Miller, eighth grade, Rhodes Junior High typing teacher. Did you have that? No, I didn't have that. Oh, for Christ's sake. She was one of those people that like those. She looked like a 1930s movie star. Never had a different. No, every day was a different outfit, but the makeup was that. I'm ready for my close up, Mr. Deville. Crazy lipstick, too much root. Like her cheeks were bright red. And you'd be hammering away on best class I ever took, by the way. Typing. Most beneficial class in all of my school. I learned to read and write on my own. Eventually typing had to be taught to me. Amazing. And that's the one thing somebody told me. You can type, right? I'm like, I'm pretty good at typing because then you can play the piano. Because typing is actually harder. And you do that without thought. I'm like, hey, that really motivated me to start pushing the piano thing. But Mrs. Miller would come up and go, hands on the home line. And then she'd reach down and go, john Holberg, let's see what you've got here. And I'm like, I'm melting.

[Brett]

I'm melting. You are melting.

[Unknown Speaker]

That bile coffee you're drinking is delicious.

[John Holmberg]

And I had her fourth hour, which means lunch was in between third and fourth hours. So she had a nice heaping helping of poop for lunch. I'm convinced she would go in and go, I'll have a cup of coffee and let's see, ham sandwich, hot ham and cheese. Oh, they have the double patties today. I'm gonna have two of those. They're two giant human on a bun. And I'm gonna breathe on John for an hour. So are you struggling? How many words do you think you're getting out a minute? I'm melting. I'm melting. Let's see what she. Hi, Sherry. Sherry sat next to me and Sherry, and I would say, melting Sherry.

[Unknown Speaker]

I'm melting.

[John Holmberg]

I'm gonna go finish up my double patty sandwich and then come back and I'm gonna talk to you guys some more. Did you have a nice lunch die, Mrs. Miller? You guys are really losing it. A Week ago, when we had the substitute, you were 50 words a minute. Now you're down to 12. Melting. Melting, I would recall. Can I come in fifth hour or after school? When you're no longer breathing fire, can.

[Commercial Announcer]

I go to the study hall where.

[Brady]

I can just do it on my own?

[John Holmberg]

Oh, geez. I don't know what you guys have for lunch. Oh, I had a Hostess Donuts. Oh, that's not healthy. You should have what I had, which is a double sandwich. Oh, God.

[Unknown Speaker]

Talk into the Yankee Candle, John.

[John Holmberg]

We gotta tell you this. This potpourri stuff you're bringing in every day, it's distracting the other students. No, you are. You're melting us. Please, allow me. The potpourri. No more potpourri, says Ms. Miller. One more bite of my double patty sandwich. She was awful. Now she would drink onion coffee. I'm convinced Ms. Miller did that. She was so clean everywhere else, that breath was on purpose. And she would sit there in the teacher's lounge, and they'd laugh and laugh. Take one more bite of the patty, suck down another cup of joe, and go breathe on these little mother. See you, guys. There she goes. Margaret Miller, one of the greatest teachers of all time. Three cheers for Margaret. She's got the bravery to smell like a sewer slaughterhouse. She breathes on those kids so we don't have to Kneisel, Craig. Oh, yeah, Bullwinkle. All of them just Zabrowski tip their glass to the lady that was willing to smell like she just drank from a cow's ass. All right, Home line. Home line. Mr. Holmberg. You can call me John Holmberg. No, dude, let's just go with J.D. how about you call me J.D. there's no. There's no exhaling that. I prefer Mr. Holmberg. I prefer death. We're lighting little candles like it's a religious ritual.

[Unknown Speaker]

Mr. Roof was our guy in metal shop, and we used to crawl over like Dave Bull would be over there.

[John Holmberg]

Mr.

[Unknown Speaker]

Roof, Dave needs help.

[John Holmberg]

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Understand?

[Brett]

You need a hand, young man?

[John Holmberg]

Stop saying H words.

[Brett]

Today we're gonna learn about heavy equipment.

[John Holmberg]

Mrs. Miller. I mean, that was 1985.

[Unknown Speaker]

You never forget.

[John Holmberg]

I remember what she was wearing the day Sherry and I almost passed out. We had those desks that were two people per desk. That was also the day that Sherry Pit was her name. Pitch her last name. She lived down the street from me, too. And she goes, watch this. She goes, hold your hand up in front of my face. And would hold my hand in front of her face. And she'd plug her nose and blow out, and air would fire out of her eyes.

[Brady]

Classy broad.

[John Holmberg]

Yeah. It was the coolest thing ever. I'm like, she can breathe underwater. I should date her. She could like a ton of it.

[Unknown Speaker]

Pretty steady stream. Paper would move, blow out a candle with her eyes.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, easily. She could do that. But I read about. I had it happen once when I was really congested. I tried to play my nose and air shot out my left eye. And I got scared she was doing it like she was breathing. She couldn't inhale, but she could blow air out of her eyeballs. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen. She was cute enough, but nothing. You know, the air thing had me. I was more intrigued by that. And then. Ms. Miller. What's going on, kids? Oh, Sherry's blowing air out of her eyes. Oh, blowing air out like this. No, nothing like that. No, look away, Marianne. Oh, she was horrible. She's definitely dead now. That was 40 years ago.

[Brady]

I also had onion coffee.

[John Holmberg]

Oh, she would drink that on purpose.
