6:54Now PlayingConservative talker Ben Shapiro wasn’t happy that Kamala Harris said that there are no laws specifically written to target men’s bodies, and he tried to counter that EVERY law is meant to regulate men’s bodies. His argument is about as absurd as you can imagine, but this is the kind of drivel that passes for “intellect” on the right. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Ben Shapiro doesn't understand how laws work. Now, I'm not saying Ben Shapiro has broken any laws, but I am saying that if anybody wanted to hire somebody to defend them in court, please for the love of God, stay away from naughty lawyer Ben Shapiro. And if you're wondering why I'm saying this, take a look at how Ben Shapiro thinks laws are actually written in this country.
A comment that, that there's not a single law that tells a man what to do with his body. Try virtually every law that applies to human beings, right? I'm not allowed to use my body to smack my employees. I'm not allowed to use my body to sell drugs. There are lots of different things you're not allowed to do with your body. The only thing that is different between men and women when it comes to this is that men don't have another human being inside their body unless they're Jeffrey Dahmer. That's not something that you're supposed to have inside. If you're a woman, you have another human being in there. My wife is pregnant. There's a human in there, a human, okay. And if she decides to harm that human, she is not just doing something with her body. She's doing something with that human's body as all of us know. But Camilla Harris is a wild human baby.
Again, Ben Shapiro has not been to law school at least as far as I know. If he has, you need to go ask for a refund. Maybe take your receipt in there and say, listen, I paid for these law school classes, but I came out like this. Huh. But I don't think he's been. Nonetheless, that is absolutely the most idiotic argument that I've ever heard coming out of Ben Shapiro and that is quite the feat. Now, here's what happened. Ben Shapiro got angry obviously at Camilla Harris during the democratic debate saying that there was no laws in this country specifically written to target men's bodies the way we have laws written to specifically target women's bodies. That is an accurate statement by Camila Harris. But Ben Shapiro says, no, no, no, no. Every law, every law out there is about men's bodies. You're telling me I can't use my body to drink a 40 and then go drive around and kill somebody? Nope. That's a law against my body. You're telling me I can't use my body to fire a gun in somebodies head. That's a law against my body. Ben Shapiro says no. You know, sometimes, sometimes those on the right, like Ben Shapiro just have an argument that's so stupid that you almost can't even refute it because it's so dumb and you're trying to put yourself in their mindset. You're trying to get down and be like, okay, how, how did he misconstrue this so bad? But I think doing that is over analyzing and I, I think at the end of the day, the big story is just that Ben Shapiro's dumb and has plenty of people have pointed out, Ben Shapiro is a dumb person's idea of what a smart person should be. I mean, hell, he got called part of the intellectual dark web by the New York times. There is nothing intellectual about Ben Shapiro. He knows a lot of words and he knows how to make stupid people feel validated. That's what this clip is about. It's about trying to confuse people, but I don't even think Shapiro is smart enough to try to confuse people. I think he honestly believes the things he says, and I've pointed that out before, I think there's plenty of people on the right who know that this is a grift what they're doing, and they're doing it because it makes them money. Candace Owens is one. Charlie Kirk is another, but Ben Shapiro, no, he doesn't know it's a grift. He doesn't think
