I'M HERE WITH MY PANEL.
THANK YOU, VERY MUCH.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> Larry: SUCH A GREAT CROWD
HERE TODAY.
NIGHTLY SHOW WRITER AND AS I WAS TOLD ALLEGED COMEDIAN.
JORDAN CARLOS.
JORDAN CARLOS HERE TONIGHT.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] COMEDIAN AND VERY FUNNY MAN
CHRISTIAN FINNEGAN IS HERE.
VERY FUNNY.
AND CNNs CHIEF INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT AND HOST OF CNN
INTERNATIONAL AS "AMANPOUR" CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR.
[ APPLAUSE ] >> Larry: SO, WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT THE DENNIS HASTERT THING EARLIER.
IT'S INTERESTING HE'S IN TROUBLE FOR EVERYTHING ABOUT MONEY.
NOTHING ABOUT WHAT I FEEL HE ACTUALLY DID.
DOES ANYONE HAVE COMPASSION FOR A SEX OFFENDER BEING EXTORTED?
I DON'T.
>> I FEEL BAD FOR WRESTLING COACHES.
IT'S LIKE, COME ON WE DON'T HEAR THE JOKES ALREADY.
>> GETTING A BAD WRAP.
>> WHEN YOU LOOK LIKE ME YOU CAN'T TALK ABOUT SAILBOATS.
YOU GET IT.
WHEN YOU LOOK LIKE ME, IN OTHER WORDS A GIRL.
I FEEL VERY, VERY, VERY STRONGLY THERE SHOULD BE NO TOLERANCE,
ZERO TOLERANCE ALL THE WAY FOR ANY KIND OF SEXUAL OFFENSE AND
TOWARDS BOYS TOO.
IT'S ZERO TOLERANCE
THERE IS THE IT AND THE POLITICS ABOUT THE IT.
>> CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR I'M GOING OUT ON A LIMB WITH YOU AND
AGREE.
>> THANK YOU, JORDAN.
[ APPLAUSE ] >> TRUTH TO POWER THERE.
>> YES, A RELIEF.
Larry: I DON'T THINK THERE SHOULD BE A STATUTE OF
LIMITATION ON THESE CRIMES.
ESPECIALLY WHEN A TEACHER MOLESTS A STUDENT.
IT'S BAD ENOUGH FOR A ADULT TO DO IT TO A CHILD.
BUT A TEACHER AND A STUDENT.
DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD HAVE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ?
>> NO.
THERE ARE SERIOUS CRIMES WITHOUT STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS.
I THINK THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS CRIME.
YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE PRISON POPULATION.
EVEN WHEN YOU GO TO PRISON A SEX OFFENDER AND PEDOPHILE KNOW THEY
WON'T HAVE A PEACEFUL TIME IN PRISON.
IF IT'S BAD AMONG THE WORST OF THE WORST OFFENDERS THEN --
>> Larry: EXACTLY.
EXACTLY.
>> WELL SAID.
Larry: YOU KNOW WHAT GETS ME TOO IS WHEN GUYS LIKE THIS OVER
DO THE OTHER THING OF LEGISLATING AGAINST CERTAIN
CRIMES.
SHOULDN'T THAT MAKE US SUSPICIOUS.
CAN WE BELIEVE ANYONE THAT'S REALLY VIGILANT ANYMORE?
>> THIS HAPPENS PRACTICALLY EVERY DAY.
A FANTASTIC AWARD WINNING JOURNALISM DONE ABOUT GOD'S
HARVEST OR THE PATRICK HENRY COLLEGE IN VIRGINIA.
IT WAS CREATED SO THAT THE GOOD CHRISTIAN GOD FEARING CHILDREN
COULD HAVE A GREAT AND SAFE EDUCATION AND THE GIRLS WOULD BE
SAFE IN A, IN AN ATMOSPHERE OF COURT SHIP.
>> Larry: I FEEL BAD ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE GOING.
>> -- A LOT OF ASSAULT AND LITTLE ACCOUNTABILITY.
SO, IT JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT THIS KIND OF HYPOCRISY IS
RAMPANT AND LITTLE ACCOUNTABILITY.
>> Larry: IT SEEMS LIKE A SHIELD PEOPLE HAVE TO HIDE BEHIND
THIS ADVOCACY TO GET AWAY WITH WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
>> YES TAKE THE HEAT OFF.
Larry: LIKE ME I RAIL AGAINST PIE EATING.
THEN THIS PICTURE.
>> OH MY GOD, LARRY .
>> I CAN'T DO IT.
ALL I DO IS TALKING ABOUT PIES MAKING US FAT.
PIES ARE MAKING US FAT.
WHAT AM I DOING?
>> PIE IN YOUR FACE.
Larry: I WANT TO ASK YOU THIS QUESTION ABOUT ISIS WE HAVE A
LOT OF ISIS RECRUITING GOING ON. I CAN' T UNDERSTAND
WHY WOULD AMERICAN YOUTH WANT TO JOIN ISIS.
>> IT'S INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND.
THIS AUDIENCE AND THOSE HERE WOULD UNDERSTAND POWER OF
INTERNET AND SOCIAL MEDIA.
>> Larry: SOCIAL MEDIA.
>> YES, GROOMING ON-LINE.
Larry: REALLY?
>> YES INDEEDY.
THEY HAVE 24/7 BANKS OF RECRUITERS WHO SIT WITH THEIR
COMPUTERS IN TURKEY OR SYRIA WHERE EVERYONE THEY ARE FINDING
PEOPLE AND GROOMING THEM ON-LINE.
GROOMING HAPPENS EVERYWHERE.
>> Larry: HIGH-TECH TERRORISM. >> IT IS. THEY'RE USING OUR
>> INVENTIONS AND TECHNOLOGY AND DEMOCRACY AND
LANGUAGE AND FILM TO DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT TO DO.
THEY'RE VERY CLEVER.
>> THEY USE TECHNOLOGY BUT THE BASELINE APPEAL IS LIFE IS
COMPLICATED.
THERE IS A CAPITOL R ROMANTIC QUALITY.
>> Larry: LIFE IS COMPLICATED. JOIN ISIS?
>> YES.
Larry: REALLY.
>> THERE IS A PLACE I HAVE A ROLE, I KNOW WHERE TO LIVE AND
WHAT TO DO.
IT'S LIKE I NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE.
LIKE AN EARLY SPRINGSTEEN QUALITY
LIKE IT'S A TOWN FOR LOSERS.
I'M GETTING OUT OF HERE TO WIN.
TO MAKE MY LIFE MEAN SOMETHING
>> TERRORISTS IN THE USA.
>> IMAGINE THAT.
THEN THESE GIRLS BEING RECRUITED.
ALL THESE GIRLS BEING RECRUITED.
>> Larry: DO THEY UNDERSTAND.
>> THEY DON'T.
THEY ARE GOING OFF INTO A LIFE OF SERVITUDE OF SLAVERY AND
SEX SLAVERY.
THEY THINK THEY'RE GOING OUT TO BE WIVES OF JIHADIS AND
UPHOLDERS OF THE ISLAMIC TRADITION THIS.
IS ALL ABOUT THE EXTREME HARD LINE WORST OF THE WORST EXTREME
PART OF WHAT IS A VERY, YOU KNOW DECENT RELIGION
>> Larry: YES.
>> ON TWITTER HOW IS THERE EMOJI GAME.
>> Larry: EMOJI GAME?
>> YEAH, WHAT ARE THEY USING ? THE DANCING LADY.
>> BIG SMILEYS AND MAYBE KNIVES.
I SAY THAT WITHOUT BEING FUNNY EITHER.
THEY ARE.
I HAVE TALKED TO PEOPLE HELD BY THESE PEOPLE.
COLLEAGUES THAT HAVE BEEN HELD FOR MANY MONTHS INCLUDING BY
THIS GUY JIHAD JOHN.
THE ONE ACCUSED OF SLITTING THE THROAT OF OUR FRIENDS IN THE
DESSERT FOR THE WHOLE WORLD TO SEE.
HE SAID TO ME THIS COLLEAGUE PRESUMABLY THEY PAID A RANSOM
AND GOT OUT.
HE SAID THE FOREIGNERS ARE EVEN WORST THAN THE LOCALS.
THEY COME TO SHOW THAT THEY'RE MORE ISIS THAN ISIS.
SOME ARE PSYCHOTIC.
SOME ARE JUST VERY VIOLENT.
THEY THINK THEY'RE GOING OUT FOR AN ADVENTURE.
IT'S A BLOOD LUST AND A CULT.
>> I FIND IT'S LIKE -- A LOT LIKE WHITE PEOPLE TRYING TO ACT
BLACK.
[LAUGHING]
>> Larry: THEY ALWAYS KEEP IT REAL A LITTLE
EXTRA HARD.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
