far left soft on crime l.a.e gascon's office announced they are not going to charge the attacker with felony assault with a deadly weapon. you see the knife. that is a deadly weapon. that looks like a real gun. but the attacker is just being charged with more misdemeanors. according to audios from the show's aftermath by tmz, chappelle thanked the security team, probably just being funny, adding, i felt good, my friends broke his arm, the guy was tying to kill him, could have killed . meanwhile, the incident raised concerns from other celebrity's, comedian how we mandel calling it "the beginning of the end for comedy." we cannot give into people that act like this, you can't, ever. anyway, here with reaction, fox news contributor leo 2.0 terrell, fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett. leo, i'm going to start with you, you know i trained and mixed martial arts, i do a lot of situational self-defense preparation for moments like what we've seen with chris rock or in this case dave chappelle, i think two of the funn

the comedian was tackled tuesday night in l.a.hunt has all the breaking news on this today from los angeles. hi, jonathan. >> hi, martha. the 23-year-old man that police said attacked dave schapelle was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. here is that weapon that police say isaiah lee had with him, a replica gun with a knife attached to it. the office of l.a. district attorney george gascon has decided not to pursue felony charges. while lee had the weapon in a bag, he didn't use it during the attack on schapelle. the d.a.'s office told us a short time ago in an e-mail statement after reviewing evidence, prosecutors determined that while criminal conduct occurred, the evidence has presented did not constitute felony conduct. isaiah lee will now face likely a misdemeanor charge, an outcome which critics say encourages similar attacks. the very point that howard stern was making about will smith's treatment by fellow movie stars was a he attacked chris rock on stage at the oscars. >> listen, you don't treat will s

and in l.a.apelle outrage district attorney george it will not charge us onstage attacker with the felony. suppose a lawyer trying the "new york post" quote it is a travesty of justice d.a. is refusing to prosecute this case as a felony. entertainers in l.a. need to know this is a justice system that will protect them. i am wondering if this would've happened if chris rock had decided to file charges against will smith that this would've been a conversation we would've been having instead. charlie i want to come to you first. can media attention, can celebrity influence this prosecutor to maybe change his mind? >> i kinda am hard-pressed to imagine is going to change his mind is so committed to this kind of what i would argue as lawlessness. these are of course these high-profile opportunities are the important moments where you demonstrate to the world that it doesn't matter who you are, what your station in life is if you break the law you are going to be charged to the fullest extent of the la

but the bottom line, according to the reporting of "l.a. times," the district attorney here in l.a.lice say charged dave chappelle on stage at the hollywood bowl, sandra. >> sandra: ok, thank you very much. certainly something we will continue to follow. jonathan, thank you. john. >> john: fox news alert, federal law enforcement taking over in the manhunt for an escaped murder suspect and the jail boss accused of helping him bust out. fair had a "special relationship." steve is tracking this live in our southeast newsroom. what's the latest on all this, steve. >> john, they have had a lot of success so far, hundreds of tips come in but just one verified sighting of the two and that's when they were in the patrol car minutes after leaving the jail. they were able to swap cars in a parking lot. the corrections officer, vicky white prepurchased and prepositioned a ford suv along the route, and learning more about the special relationship between the confessed murderer and the corrections official. at the very least, she was giving him extra food as a prisoner. the sheriff says there wa

misdemeanor case management directive says these are the 13 crimes you can commit in l.a.. the list is not exhaustive. the order says, misdemeanor crimes shall be declined or dismissed for arraignment and without conditions. sentencing enhancement allegations, you and i are going to going to this kathy because you've written a lot about it. what he orders his da's to eliminate sentencing enhancements, special circumstances, life without parole and the death penalty even though california voters have repelled those things and the legislature has passed those things. kathy, you noted in one of your writings there are over 100 sentencing allegations i n california some of which are mandatory. but he has directed da's not to follow them. the directive says you cannot send anyone under 18 to adult court no matter what. the habeas corpus litigation unit is charged to look at all cases where they worked -- where there were convictions earned in your office to look for injustice including racial injustice, the fox and the henhouse office, which unwinds convictions your office earns

the cathedral here in l.a. west hollywood also saw a similar demonstration. but in this case these women entered. they then changed into these costumes, these handmade entailed costumes in the bathroom and then invaded the sanctuary during mass . those there said defiling the catholic mass . and laura, the curious thing is when i asked each of these people and i spoke to three witnesses, people who were there mass i said what did you think when they stood up in these red outfits? one man said he thought they were little red riding hood. another lady thought they were florence nightingale and betsy ross. so, you know, if you're going to protest, make sure the iconography, the costume character you're wearing is known to the people you're protesting against. otherwise they're utterly bewildered and that seems to be the case here. they look like great action and so they look like adults playing little red riding hood actually . i mean they look just idiotic. now you saw connection, raymond, between what happened this weekend and something that pelosi previously

it cost $1,000 to rent a u-haul from george to l.a. but $8,000 to rent it from l.a. to georgia.e difference. georgia is growing. people from the entertainment industry are moving here. and let me say that we're in this position of division. not because of progressive democrats but because of cowardice conservative leaning people who are scared to death to speak their mind and be honest in industries like hollywood and places like new york don't bring that to georgia. i spoke to someone in georgia the other day who is a bigwig in the movie industry. loves me. watches fox. but would never say it publicly. that's what needs to change. be honest about who you are. have an open mind and an open heart but speak your conviction. that's what the state of georgia is. >> emily: i can't imagine the gas prices from l.a. to atlanta. but people are obviously willing to pay that, right, if that situation is that dire for them to get to that state, unlike what stacey abrams says does provide such an amazing place to live. and the numbers don't lie. this is the exact opposite of all that hysteri

[♪♪♪] >> last, but certainly not least is a jell-o be opera. they are the punk rock candidate of the lead singer called the dead kennedys. >> if w

>> absolutely. >> 27000 students at the l.a. unified school district last year.he teachers union. this is the year of the parent they are going to turn out in droves. the woke craziness is happening in california we saw a schoolboard turnover in california we want them to learn 123 and abcs, not the birds and the bees at age through four. >> exactly, that schoolboard suggested this can happen there and right across the state great to see you. there's so much craziness in california we need to turn it around. thank you for watching the war on the west is up next. see you next sunday on "the next revolution" will be televised. douglas: hello i'm douglas murray, welcome to the fox nation special. there is a war going on at the moment, a war against all of the foundation and traditions of the west. >> there is a massive lie of omission about world history. most kids have no idea that the arable world and say 14 million africans paid them no idea about the history of slavery in china and korea. here the word slavery and associated only with the west. >> the war going

she was just enjoying a moment away from l.a. and the burden that she had there.as in new york for just two or three days. we would fly in fly back out. i remember finding her in their, putting this tape in. it was such a sweet moment with her. i became very involved when i worked with her with the notion of drug prevention and what that meant and really trying to catch kids to stop the path down a drug laden life early before they actually got started that way. programs like just say no and others were funded for a number of years through the nazi reagan foundation. she felt, and it was backed by research, that prevention was really the key to stopping the drug problem in the country and to catching the young before they ever got started. just say no was one of those rally cries. we heard thousands of hardworking stories constantly. i remember the impact that it had on mrs. reagan and how hard it was for her to bear to hear those stories. as the ceo of the boys and girls club of pasadena, and i brought barbara from pasadena. she's a neighbor. i am blessed each da
