This is Jennifer Moss, coming to you
live from the Green Ridge Forest...

the center of a brewing controversy
between wildlife conservationalists...

and loggers who would like
to have this area leveled.

With me now
is Park Ranger Dan McDermott.

- How ya doin'?
- Fine, thank you.

Uh, Ranger McDermott,
these issues are highly volatile.

Can you sort them out
for our viewers?

Well, Jennifer, it pretty much comes down
to your spotted marsh goose.

There's fewer than of the geese
left out in these woods.

When these woods are gone...

you can pretty much plant a kiss
on the fanny of the spotted marsh goose.

That would be a shame
as far as I'm concerned...

because there's nothing
more beautiful...

than seeing one of them big birds
just take off out of the marsh in the mornin'.

It would be one thing
if they were hunting for food.

But it's this senseless k*lling
I got a problem with.

Would it be possible to relocate
the spotted marsh goose...

to another area, perhaps?

Well, you can't just take out one element
out of the ecosystem.

You got your fly, your mosquito,
you got your elm beetle.

[Tarzan Yell]

- [Thud]
- You take the goose out,
you're up to your eyeballs in bugs.

That may be. Yet the loggers contend that
the economy of Green Ridge is dependent...

upon the very clearing of the forest.

Short term, you're talking
maybe new jobs.

That's kind of a pain,
if you're out of work.

But the state also depends
on its nature reserves and tourist dollars.

You cut these trees back,
they're not coming back.

This is obviously
a very touchy and sensitive issue.

Loggers have been clashing with
conservationalists here in these very woods.

Have there been any outbreaks
of v*olence lately?

I ain't gonna lie to you...
tempers are flarin' high.

We've been able to keep things civilized,
but I can't guarantee it's gonna stay like that.

So the loggers are not going to
give up these woods without a fight.

Miss, I'm from Green Ridge,
and I know lumberjacks.

They like to get liquored up and fight.
They're Scandinavians and they're mean.

Is the Department of the Interior
close to making a decision in this matter?

Well, tell ya the truth,
we're not holding our breath.

So you're saying you expect the federal
bureaucracy to take its sweet time?

[Chuckles]
Well, does a bear dump in the woods?

[Chuckles]

Well, thank you,
Ranger McDermott, very much.

And through it all, the spotted marsh goose
flies peacefully overhead...

unaware that their fate is being decided
in Washington as we speak.

For Fox News, this is Jennifer Moss,
Green Ridge Forest.

[Announcer] From Compton, CA,
it's The Gangsta Group...

a dope look at
today's freshest issues.

Now here's your moderator,
Bushwick Bill.

Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo!

My name's Bushwick Bill and here's
my little cohost partner, Chucky.

Yeah! Yeah!
N-N-N-Nyah! Nyah! Nyah!

Yo, yo. Welcome to The Gangsta Group.
[Grunts]

In the house!

All right, with me today
is my boy, Tupac Shakur...

Boss, Ice-T...

and from Long Beach,
Snoop Doggy Dogg.

Issue one.!
v*olence in rap music.!

Too much? Tupac?

You see, that's the thing.
We're just a reflection of society, all right?

Check it out. Suppose you order
a pizza, right? And it's cold.

You got cold pepperoni and cold sausage.
You ain't gonna bust a cap in him?

- Oh, I'm the only one who like hot pizza in here?
- I tell ya what you should do.

Hold him down, let your boys get a piece.
[Shrieking] Ice-T?

- Gotta sh**t.
- Boss?

- sh**t him.
- I say sh**t him!

Issue two!
The Brady Bill!

Five-day waitin' period
for your handgun.

Those thoughts?
Snoop Doggy Dogg!

Now, let's say, you know, like, you know,
you get out the car, you know...

somebody step
on my AirJordans, right?

You expect me to, you know,
wait, you know, days to k*ll the man?

I ask you, you know, is that justice?
You know what I'm sayin'?

I don't know what the hell
you're sayin'. Ice-T?

That don't really
matter to me. Right?

I already got plenty of g*ns.
You know what I'm sayin'?

- Yeah, me too.
- Boss.

Man, it'll take you five days
just to reach the doorknob at the g*n store.

Shut up, before I punch you
in your kneecap. Next issue!

Health care crisis.
Ice-T?

- Now, that's an important issue.
- Uh-huh?

'Cause, I mean, like, just last week...

my homey, he sh*t two people...

and neither one of'em
had health insurance.

But I mean, you know, what are they
supposed to do, just finger a brother?

It's almost to the point where you're afraid
to sh**t people. I mean, not me personally.

- 'Cause I will sh**t people.
- We know that, homeboy.!

Walkin' 'cross the street...
Pow! Pow! Tupac in town!

[All Laughing]

Not until we have
universal health care in this country...

will you be able to be free
to sh**t anybody anytime you choose.

Girl, you kinda cute
when you bang on your chest.

Chucky! Next issue!

- Hillary Clinton... bitch or ho? Tupac!
- Bitch.

- All right. Snoop?
- Ho.

- Boss?
- Ho.

Ice-T!

Aw, damn, see, now
I'm gonna have to go with bitch.

You all wrong.

In fact, Hillary Clinton is a skeezer!
Right, Chucky?

Yeah! Yeah!

Next issue.

If you could sh**t, Bobo...
one white person... who would it be?

- Damn! Just one?
- [Bill] Mm-hmm.

White people are like potato chips, right?
You can't sh**t just one.

Does the Supreme Court
count as just one person?

No, but the Olsen twins do...

and them little ho's is my choice.

Next issue. NAFTA!
Free trade with Mexico and Canada.

What impact will that have?
Snoop Doggy Dogg!

I don't really be knowin', you know,
what be up with Canada and Mexico, right?

All I know is, some of them Canadians,
like, be messin' with me, right...

when I be in my car, you know,
chillin' and stuff, right?

So I don't know,
I just do what I will do.

You been puffin' that chronic, ain't ya?
'Cause you ain't makin' no sense! Tupac!

I'll tell you what about NAFTA.

All it means to me is that I can sh**t cops
in three different countries.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

- Boss!
- [Sighs]

Well, I mean, hey!
sh**t to k*ll! sh**t to k*ll!

All right, shut up, shut up.
Only one minute left. Predictions! Tupac!

I predict this year the cops
are gonna insist on harassing me...

every time I bust a little cap
in somebody's butt.

I got a prediction... Chucky gonna
make a new movie! Yeah! Chucky!

Snoop Doggy Dogg!

I'm predictin' that my album
will sell million copies...

right, when I let this bazooka go off
in a crowd... you know what I'm sayin'?

Boss, lady, come here, girl!

I predict, Tattoo,

I'm gonna blow out
your other eye.

Yo, yo, yo!
Watch where you point that thing!

Hey, hey, hey, sh**t the bitch,
and you're dead!

Don't be pointin' that thing, little man.
Understand what I'm sayin'?

Drop it, Snoop,
or you're six feet deep.

That's all the time we got for tonight.

Little Chucky, where your gat at?

- All right, we're clear! Can I have the props?
- Thank you.

I was playing golf yesterday,
and there was a guy who looked just like you.

Excuse me, I'm sorry. Excuse me,
Mr. Snoopy Dogg. It's your stockbroker.

Oh, man, what's up?

I'll pimp-slap you, Ice Cream.

Someone take this damn doll
out of my hand. Please!

You know what? This Imperial Class
is something else, ain't it?

Yeah, I just wish I could enjoy it, honey.
It's just this turbulence.

I'm just not feeling
too well right now.

Excuse me. Did I hear you say something
about the Imperial Class?

- Because it is number one.
- Okay. Thanks, man.

Hi. My name is Frances, and I'm gonna be
your flight attendant for the evening.

- Is that okay?
- That's fine.

I'd like to tell you about our dinner specials.
First, would you like something to drink?

Yeah. Do you have any juice?
We could go for some of that.

Uh, we have some lovely,
lovely juices.

We have a freshly crushed
Valencia orange juice...

- [Sighs]
- Served in a tall glass.

- It's frosted around the tip.
- That's good.

A slice of tangerine,
put that on the side of that sucker...

sweet and tangy taste.

- That sounds great. Grab me some of that.
- You got it.

Hey, excuse me, big man.

Excuse me, brother.
Kinda rainy in here.

- Smells like the john?
- Yeah.

- Um, I gotta tell you about the apple juice.
- No, you don't.

- Uh, yes, I do, red.
- Hey, man...

Hey, watch your mouth, bro.

We took different apples
from different states...

and came up with a combination
of apple juice you would not believe.

- Can I get just plain orange juice, man?
- Sure, man.

Excuse me. I'm going to have to tell you
about our dinner specials, sir.

And please don't razzle me.

Look, Jimmie Walker, I've had it.

In case you didn't know,
your husband's not Denzel!

Yes, I know.

I'd like to tell you about
the dinner special for this evening.

Its a wonderful blend
of Cajun chicken and crab meat.

It comes in small cups.

What we do is cover it sort of like a quiche,
but we don't use eggs.

We use a crème.

A "chrème"?

Well, look, man, forget the crème.

My wife is sick. Just bring us some seltzer water.
That's all we need from you.

- I can do that.
- Just crème your a... over there and get me some.

By the way, nice wig.
You forget the chin strap?

Ha, ha, ha.

Do you believe that?
Do you believe that?

Do you believe that?

Before we touch ground, you guys would
love to know what we're having for dinner.

I want to tell you about this
really, really nice rice we have.

It's from Louisiana,
imported from Vietnam.

It's a brown rice. It's wonderful.
It's like Uncle Ben's uptown cousin.

Fine. Look, Jheri curl, all we need
is for you to get my wife something.

Just bring an air bag
for some sickness.

- Are you sick?
- Yes. Thank you.

- Just give me one of these.
- Excuse me, red!

- Man, you need to...
- We have the unscented one.

- Then we have the wonderfully
cinnamon-scented one.
- Oh! Uh-huh!

- Or we have a transparent...
- [Vomits]

Hey, buddy, this is... Hey!

[Screaming, Retching]

[Screaming Continues]

[Screams]

Ladies and gentlemen, back up.
I think she saw Aliens.

I guess you don't cook.

I just got this suit out of the cleaners,
and you done messed it up.

- I'm gonna have to bust you up.
- If I were you I wouldn't come from that direction.

'Cause what I can do here
is break the elbow from this point.

Take it down, take his shoulders
from the center, bring them around...

take his tray to an upright position
and slam it in there.

Are you happy now, red bone? Huh?

Now, I have some choices
from this point.

I can take my knuckles
and put them to the side of his temple...

or I can take our unkind guest
to an exit.

I have choices here, here, or to the front.
You know what I choose?

- What do you choose, man?
- The front!

What I'm going to do
is take the door from here...

unlatch it and kick this sucker open.

Now, as you can see...

I open the door and we're cruising
at an altitude of , feet.

I can throw his ass out of this plane
like the white man in Passenger ...

or I can close the door and
finish the damn dinner specials.

I'll listen, man! I'll listen!

Come here, baby!
Honey, over here!

How do I look?

Now, we have a Pop-Tart salad
which is delicious.

But he'll just lay there like a worm

Please! Enough!

Well, I'll beJohn Brown!

Mr. Turner, you haven't

I'll grant you one thing.
Your dog did find the marijuana.

But police work for a dog is very dangerous.
You dog might be k*lled...

Well, he could be seriously hurt...

Well, bad things might happen to him.

You ain't got to worry about Duke,
'cause Duke ain't afraid of nothin'.

Boo!

Yes, he seems very calm.

But a police dog has to be vicious.
He has to be able to att*ck on command.

He has to be able to disable a suspect immediately.
That's the kind of dog we're looking for.

That ain't no problem! Go ahead!
Sic 'im, Duke! Now, look out, Duke!

- Get 'im, Duke!
- Mr. Turner!

- Mr. Turner.! Mr. Turner.!

Mr. Turner.

That's pathetic.
Would you stop, please?

A dog has to be able to
disable a suspect immediately.

Duke couldn't disable his own bowels.

Disable?

Duke, I knew you was gonna come back to me.
You shouldn't leave me like this.

Sir, I saw you move the tail.
