might have been a distraction from mazda crime, was being linked to the by to name if this was meant to be a distraction, it is the most ill conceived distraction ad for, as a former prosecutor, as a lawyer. the 1st question i ask is, why did you go to trial on this? what was your defense? what, what possibly could the defense be for your lighting or, or trying to purchase guns, sign federal documents while you were addicted to drugs. but this goal is to show you that simply this, this new world that we're living in. as a prosecutor, we don't need any more wiretaps. surveillance of confidential. the form for me is, give me your phone. do you have me to your phone? i people, we see it all the time. people have such an addiction to chronic living. every single thing they do, and between you and me, if you're tapping away,

trying to get ahold of your drug dealer coughing to your beloved sitting boy, this addiction is really what do you, where do you think this is going? it's as though we have been loaded into this world of privacy. there's nothing pride, but it doesn't seem, it doesn't cease to amaze me. so there are privacy issues later on and people think about. but the bottom line, just simply just the course. this is political look at the time and does the judge speed up the sentencing to allow him to, to be done with this to try to position it so that it doesn't look like it's coming before the convention and, and before that, um and then what about his rights, shouldn't he have all the rights available to, to, to, to, to develop his defense and his sentencing. so if i, by the way, there's another one coming in california for dealing with the taxes and the like. so she's not out of the woods yet by any stretch of imagination. that is

a rob to the side of things here. so keep me company here or to international, to have to see the, [000:00:00;00] the, the 2023 was the worst year in record us 378 police officers were shot in the line of duty. make no mistake. this optic environments is the direct result of the radical democrats, soft on crime policies. in the d fund, the police movement during police week members of the united states house of representatives, republican caucus announced the several new bills to support law enforcement. i'm

sure i know he isn't on this episode of 360 view, we're going to discuss the new call for strengthening the police and it, this will actually lead to a reduction in crime. let's get started. the majority lloyd riot rekindled the call by activists to defend the police. many urban areas across the united states responded by an acting reforms and restructuring their police department. these changes have not had the desired effect, as crime continues to skyrocket, especially in those areas now patrolled by the altered police department. and while there is not been an example of police brutality which is drawn, the anger and violence i've seen in the wake of george floyd's death suggesting the police performs did help, did her police brutality. the rise in violent crimes in american street has made

most americans demand something be done to restore law and order. the final straw all was the reason campus protests which broke out across college campuses. in response to the biden garza policy students and professional protestors who joined the ranks destroyed university campuses terrorized students who actually went there and even interrupted or caused graduations to be cancelled. the call to restore and even strength and police departments could no longer be ignored by legislators from the local to the federal level. at the university of north carolina actually eliminated the diversity equity and inclusion programs and transferred the $2300000.00 in funding to campus police and public safety and motivated by recent pro palestinian campus protest. the board actually reasoned that more funds were needed for law enforcement on campus. republicans have spearheaded this complete 180 on police reform,

started and during the police week in may. republicans have and always will proudly back the blue and these officers exemplify the american spirit. they are the best of us and they are proposed legislation addressing and are police attacks, expanding the concealed carry right of police officers and protecting police in the line of duty. they've also supported mental health of officers and reporting illegal immigrants who assault law enforcement. the reversal bad policies actually work? well, let us discuss with our panel dominic ego, a former chicago area police officer, ronald hampton, who is an author and retired dc metropolitan police officer and steve, ever with the ceo of heartland journal. thank you so much for joining the gentleman . i wanna start actually at the top and present binds 2023,

stay the unit. he described police reforms as this. when police officers, as a police department, violate the public trust, they must be held accountable. i signed an executive order for all the federal officers banding show coals restricting, no, not warrant. and other key elements of the george florida must come together to finish the job and police before. so i have to as ronald, i would start with you. what should realistic police performs actually look like? well, thank you for having me not. i don't know what it would look like because we haven't seen it. we haven't really, we haven't really had police reform. we've had, we've been having this conversation since rodney king was killed in 1991. but really farm hasn't taken place. because of organizations who pro police, individuals who approach police, the police pro police could use unions in this country. so real police reform has not taken place. yeah, we've seen this spike after there's been

a horrible death for a miscarriage of justice by law enforcement officer, but really form hasn't taken place. so we haven't had a chance to see we've had a conversation. but that hasn't taken place and, and i was noticed and then your commentary that you talked about, you had to pin restructuring the policing. i don't know where there's been any restructuring. there's a lot of hiring going on and policing because people police departments so sure. but in terms of restructuring and i don't know what that looks like. there is some departments who have taken on the issue of of working with mental health workers, but that's, that's few and far between. and we have some cities didn't have a high mental health professionals to respond to the cost of service. but to say that police, it has changed. it hasn't changed,

it's the same police department there that was on can in the 19 seventy's and eighty's. a well drama, i better ask you, is it fair that this is? do you think this has become political and that politics involvement is caused it to not actually change as much as it should have sort of like what steve was just saying. a robert, let's just say a 100 percent police are ponds as the easiest and lowest common denominator to attack on you didn't do this wrong or you didn't do that right. or either way, george slides, a fantastic example. i've been so vocal about this for a long time. where is now i think that the george for dust, i think it was, it had to do with the fact no and whatever else was in the system. and i've said this publicly, i think would dared show when did was it? probably one of the worst exercises are examples of police brutality and history because he punished and tortured jord floyd with a move in did. he didn't need to hold for that long, but nobody wants to talk about that because they want to make it racial. so the issue, why will never come to the table will never solve the problem is you have to, mobs,

you have one mazda once the police held accountable for every thing. and you have the other mom wants the police to be the punters, to all the criminals. for everything, show the 2 mobs are so there's so death they don't want to even hear what it is or issues on the table. so they're used purely for politics as a 100 percent accurate or say, but dominic they think it falls on like political lives. easy to say that one side is republic and one sides debit credit or this point is it mixed? you know, as it gets, it gets mixed. i'll tell you what it's it's, it's funny how the g o p is doing this now where they've been the last several years. you know, they're, they're, they're no favorite of cops either. it's a, it's an election year. they want the volts on their side and it's as simple as that, so it's meant to restore law enforcement. hey, we're here for you. never mind that we haven't been here for the last several years while you've been taking a beating left and right and all your democrats that he's but we're here for you now. so this is an election tactic. okay, so speaking of election steve, you're republicans like to say they're the only, we're the only ones that actually back the blue a present divided made a speech of the capital during police week,

admitting the realities endangers law enforcement face every day. every time you put on that shell to walk out of the house, your family wonders is that call. com. so steve, what should the democrats stand on supporting law enforcement be as well? they're gonna find out when they need the protection at the democratic national convention. the summer, i mean i was there for the 2020 summer of love in seattle, uh as the mayor at the time called it when a city council member used her key to open city hall for the occupiers. and never would have had a key if not for a stolen election against the now radio host already hoffman using homeless ballots . and dr. berg dropboxes to steal it 3 days after election from ballad stuffing. so the people at the top, the authorities, the pro police politicians really just turned law enforcement political, which is never ever, ever should be now why they do that because they have a union just like the teachers do. and back in the obama days,

when seattle was under a dissent decree, they started messing with it, and now they've got 400 police officers for the city of 2000000. what do you expect? morales, terrible, there's been assassination attempts, assaults attempts. this is the exact result. the route, the reckoning of making police police and serve and protect law enforcement. political. the one thing rodney king and george boyd had in common both are on drugs, extremely, extremely powerful drugs that made them psychotic and police have under funded, under trained, under, supported and know that as soon as the incident is over, if they live, the politicians don't have their back and they're coming for would that be new york city, milwaukee. l. a. seattle, portland, you name a terrible, terrible situation that our police are in, in 2024 american america. they've, i hear you. but to dominic's point, why is it take campus pro,

test for republicans to finally do something? was it the rifle crime that they should been acting on all along to is the rising crime. this has been going on for 40 years. i mean, go back to the war protests and ronald reagan had to step up until the administrators knock it off. they've been appeasing these people forever. here at vanderbilt university in tennessee. they've been on the campus for a month long before they ever broke out. they kicked off, can you see a late protest or just in time for graduation, they all came flooding back and climbed the ladder and put a outstanding flag on the roof as if it was like the fall of saigon. so the administrators that have been involved in universities have been political for a long time. i mean, i always call her the, the, the senator from universities. elizabeth warren, who is very much a part of this anti copy fund a please use the money for social workers instead, which is just going to lead to more more violence because of about the victims and the criminals. they don't care anything about the politics. they care about justice and are they going to survive?

and some of the cities have become actual words, zones, and without police, that film blue line between chaos and civilization. here we are ronald, i've got to ask you how do you view it? because when it comes to democrats and our policies, are they risking losing popularity with their own group of supporters? and can they afford to do this when they are already potentially going to lose support of another very popular community within the democratic party? the muslim community, how does place the farm work within the democrats side? i don't know because i don't i don't, i don't even understand the position that you're to guess the 2 other guys are taking because that's not what i say. that's not what i've been involved in. that's not what the people that i talk to, how they talk about it. costs is politicize, because they wonderful is that they've been politicizing it to you and colleagues, unions that have been politicizing it from the very beginning. and publicize it shouldn't be pull this, this would be

a issue that community people are involved in, and that everyone's entitled to. but the, at the hit, the zation of it comes with the people who are the best way to go to dest. you to guess a part of the political vision of it and that's what it do. so that has, that hasn't been my experience and, and i'm not going to, uh, i don't see it is that i think that the police have the police have exactly what it is that they have bought in school. of the citizens didn't beat up the police, the citizens didn't commit police without the police the and there cell port on nothing they have to, uh, they have to uh, face the reality of their action. and that's what they're facing there. and that's why that's why people i'm not looking at, for example, a law enforcement as a career because of the, the reputation, the vision of it has gone down,

has changed. it does not have the integrity that it was said. and, and, and that's going to be a problem. so not, i just can't see the light in this. if anybody have to let us that they continue to do this as and then they're going to continue to put it as a. i don't know why we wouldn't want to kind of police service that we pay for and deserve the largest part of the buses. in most cities, probably go to the police department. so why certainly we want to look at, evaluate the budget, the those departments and see whether or not they're doing exactly what it is that we're giving them the money for. we analyze and then and, and, and, and, and look at but to some of the agencies, the institutions enough is that the police off shouldn't be exempt for that. so we should be looking at looking at whether or not they're doing what it is that we pay them to do every single day. and there's a lot of solution going on as

a whole bunch of stuff. so i don't, i don't see anything wrong with it. okay, so obviously i don't think dominic probably agree is completely with what you're saying on a dominic as well what's, what's the, what are they getting paid to do? and how can i get paid to do it when we see most of the time? because let's not, men's words are i know you're going to take this as a racial community issue, right? because the police are committing no, they're not going to take the electrical, the, you don't the either. it's not really hold on one say one at a time on the run it in time to run on hold on one second like the adult. okay. dominic requires you want to do the other one there. ronald give me one. give me one minute dom dominic, finish your thoughts and these are based long enough to know what the underlying messages and when it comes down to this, the cops can't do their job when you get specific districts or states attorneys and the community leaders who all place the demands on the police do their job. they went back to simply the police. so the problem is the public fix that the crime

will stop and start with the police show someone can explain this to me because maybe i'm just a dump street cop who never even went to college and got lucky and got hired right . but when the police have the onus on all the problems of the streets, criminal is being taken care of and, and you know, the crime is going to be incumbent upon the police doing their job well then talk to me about the district attorneys, or states attorneys the defense attorneys, the judges, the community leaders, the mirrors, everybody who's in a political position who puts pressure is on the police chief to use the strings on what the cops can do in the 1st place. the police unions, you are just absolutely abhorrent and ridiculous, but it's all the cops responsibility, right? everybody wants to do the job match. so the cause they do and i'll be all say they don't have to, we have the, i wanna, i wanna say, well, okay, well, for the time, you know, one final question right, is not there or you just know there's the, you know, a guide. so let's, let's, let's take a break to pause 1st have your general hold on. we need take

a break. so this is going to give us a great opportunity for there's an excellent discussion dominic ronald steve. stay right there. because when we come back, we're going to actually confuse discussion because politics is playing a dominant role, not only this discussion, but is supporting law enforcement as soon as winning issued for republicans. therefore they're the ones that are usually talking about it. but is this just lingo on the campaign trail? we're going to continue after a short break in vietnam, the vietnam war loans did for almost 2 decades and dragged in numerous countries. not any written down. you can just say now, why did all i'm did? hundreds of thousands of american troops was sent to the country to back the south

vietnamese on me. i thought about that not, but the american soldiers miller did resist, as most of the slaves burned down entire villages and spread dangerous chemicals. and even lee by all right, did the americans ever fully acknowledge what they did on the vietnamese veterans ready to forgive? yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a ways to think about what's going on in this country right now with the defined the police movement, the way that the police are being demonized. who are you going to call at 2 o'clock in the morning when you need help? it is more than just congress questioning place for form. welcome back to 360 view

. i'm your host starting now he's. now, the dates are also reversing laws once allowing shoplifters to get away scott free . california has become the smash and grab capital. due to proposition $47.00, which allows shoplifting up to $950.00 to be considered a misdemeanor. regulations in the state do not allow police to arrest people for non violent crime. videos like d circulate, non stop showing. smashing grabs, happening across the state in broad daylight, stealing everything from chanel bags to liquor. a one sheriff in california actually believe laws are preventing them from doing. their job is what is deteriorated. his department's morale and hiring numbers over the past decade or so . the rule of law, a requirement of a civilized society has been severely eroded by

a sick and twisted progressive social experiment fraudulently called criminal justice reform. now, officials from across the state are proposing a b 17 dash 72, which would actually require up to 6 months in jail for someone who shop list 3 times and talked about another 180 in oregon, the democratic governor to co dec ran her campaign on opening drug use centers in d criminalizing open drug use in the state. in addition to making measure 110 work, we need a meth stabilization center in portland when a measure 110, past and 2020. it received wide support in oregon, notably portland, were 3 quarters of the population voted in favor of the legislation as fast forward and since measure 110 was implemented. drug overdoses spiked 50 percent with fentanyl accounting for more and most of the test. now coaches declared

a state of emergency and effectively re criminalized drugs after the states failed experiment with legalization. as most drugs, the reversal will crack down on public drug use in cities like portland and give the police more power to respond. so i would have continued our discussion with our panel and look at the politics involved with dominic use of a former chicago area, police officer brown, hampton, who is the author of retired g c metropolitan police officer and steve avery, with the sea of heartland journal. thank you, german for staying with me steve. i wanna start with you. is this california share of correct was all of this place for form for just a social experiment? it absolutely it was and you just quote is uh with that co tech a. d. i higher that was the 1st one was the mayor of seattle where they took away tear gas and other non leader force options from the police who were getting hit by frozen water bottles. and you know, 20 police officers nationwide. a big shot and killed so far this year in the line

of duty, of 25 percent from last year. so why would they want to de escalate the ability for police to protect themselves, much less their brothers in arms and the citizens that they're supposed to be there for? so seattle solution was a political one, a pilot program to have 6 mental health professionals who work in teams of to, to respond to calls were dispatchers. believe the police are needed by the way, the dispatchers were outsourced to a private company. so 911 isn't even the police wasting valuable seconds. so response time is now an hour. it's just a political tinkering. as you said, social experiment with what should be a very simple serve and protect job that when they the wife. here's the husband, here's the bill. come off at night. they know they came home safe. it's a good day. this is making that a lot harder to have and i feel bad for the police. i back to police is not a racial thing. there are wonderful black, hispanic, asian men, women in the police department,

just trying to do their job to protect me. my family, everyone on this panel and what do they do? the politicians walk around with it and give their resources to social work or union officials, and that is not a good way to run a city, a town or a country, but something wrong. i've gotta throw this to you real quick because a social experiment do you feel like often times that's what these politicians are doing. is setting these various situations of being a social experiment and putting either the people or the place at rest, setting them up to fail. the things i think police since on the very beginning was a social experience. and you can try something. there are times when they have been a situation said police, and i remember back in the new york city police department when before they had a 6 squad because they didn't believe women got raped and all of that the minute day they had this, this 6 quite a document,

the reports the minute that they say i have is a 6. why reports? spite that be in the have today. because in the reason that they spite, then we get so many what because they didn't have a receptacle to receive the complaints. it is so i'm not surprised that in that in portland that's the complaints o o o overdoses or use use of drugs spite because that was the 1st key. that's the whole idea of doing so is to be, do they have to be able to do it? how do you know that over a period of time that it wouldn't the level of out been decreased so the whole day fail least damn. so is a social experiment because it's not doing, it's not doing what is a goal to do not for people across the board. what are we talking about?

is a, is a social next moment, and then what's an i phone, 800 bucks. so it's under the limit, it's a big fail the failing several days go as long the or what the why the square one you one yeah, yeah. because look at the retail, you know, and means that we're not in, simmons is every call left from nice to meet is to macy's to north on was because they don't want to get ripped off by. well, yeah, you know what i mean the through and that's the reason why that's a great, thank you for your service here. and these are the all of the guys have to, i gotta get what i've got to get. we've got one minute left. like i said obviously the, the great thing about this we give the 36, you dominic, i cannot let the show and without talking about scottish shepherd is arrest. he was a fan favorite pga tour had kept the rest of just outside the route. how he got golf club the morning for the 2nd round of the p g championship. now the officer involved did not turn his body camera to record amongst other violations for now finding out or being investigated in the rest of this professional golf. or do you

think this has any role in proving the need for place or forms, especially in the community and the community that before totally ignored it. police are form needs to be a blanket thing across the board, and that needs to be a better standard of hiring practice. it needs to be returned to the constitution and it needs to be a annual annual re certification non stop. so it's a 1000000 times i've changed my use on licensing versus certification. certification is lifelong and licensing. you've got to renew every couple of years, like if you're a realtor or a hair stylist. bestcopy gives you certification, and then you've got your b. s got annual. you know, little computer courses that you take, that you can really screw around with it during the squad room. and now we have the time. that's why we have important candidates to be on the street. we have under qualified candidates and we have candidates who don't even know the damn constitution is. so we need to go back to the basics 1st and if we're going to do any dentist, well dominic ronald, steve, that makes it, you know, be self associate extreme. and this the, uh, it, yeah. that in

a failed one. well dominic ronald state, thank you so much for joining me on this discussion. like say we're gonna probably continue this. there's continuation whether it's an election year or not. thanks for joining me. now regardless of what side, whether you were talking about the police or the criminals, this all comes down to the need for policies, which call for accountability for the bad while protecting the good. now while it is ironic, those politicians calling the loud is from, for police for forms are usually the ones who represent some of the highest crime districts in the united states. yet their constituents continuously reelect them despite their streets continuing to trend more dangerous. and therefore, you do have to give credit, regardless of what side of the aisle is coming from, to any politician who wants to make the streets safer for law abiding citizens. because when you do call 9112 obviously want someone to answer. i'm sky now here's

and this has been the 360 view of the news which affects you. thanks for watching the

the of the man the northern have it written down when you say no, now why?
