11:37 am
shooter has ceased shooting and will soon abandon his rifle blend in with the students as they escape and walk free for an hour before arrest fight for your lives before it's someone else's child. was. what i wanted freshman year i didn't know many people i didn't have any friends and it wasn't until the last year freshman year that i thought. that i thought like you had friends and then it was because i picked up my camera and i brought it to school i decided to make of like that there you know it's good you tube today we're going to be doing a q. and a guys to ask me questions and. let me research
11:38 am
now i realized my camera was my comfort zone it was a place for me to lay on my worries and preoccupations and just like go of everything that's when i realized a long way of taking care of myself. this past month i saw i saw a dead body you know i went to multiple funerals i just had to learn how to deal with that. it's been rough i don't like to show my emotions on camera especially i don't. it's been rough but we students are getting through it we're strong. because filmmaking has this power to just influence other people i decided to video based project called stories untold so in stories i'm told do pose different videos and
11:39 am
we mainly cover people that have experienced convent and we've had up to you travel across the country and meet so many different people this is christy she's a column on survivor this is omar though god he was the 1st respondent at the polls shooting i was involved in one of the worse part of the u.s. try to tease out occur you know right before your end 000 massacre whatever it is for those people courage bodies laid on top of each other for a lot of us suffer trauma that we want to express but we just don't how the outlet to go to. if you had a teacher with who was adept at firearms they could very well end the attack very quickly so we'll be doing the background checks will be doing a lot of different things but we'll certainly be looking at ideas like that. we've
11:40 am
got to make sure we have an increased law enforcement presence on in all of our schools every school so my proposal would have a significant long presence in every school out top of that as are school schools that are larger would have a bigger law enforcement presence. when i was in elementary school or middle school i remember school was a school it's a place where i could walk around where i could feel at home where i could just. be me i guess now a school starting to feel more like a prison there's so many security guards so many policemen in. the united states has been at least for the last 50 or 60 years like lobel power and a leading global power so it has to have a particular kind of brand of of conflict management and this is it it's it's militarized but i'd never accept that argument about militarization as simply the
11:41 am
reason to explain why americans like done so much i think there's also a relationship to not ever having to explain oneself i think that's a part of american culture. but it's also really a part of american identity which is never to apologize. she could walk what she's lazy. i goofball. but. i raised 2 girls and single dad and i watched it with my own to our kids grow up too fast you know it's hard enough now with what's going on. my opinion democrats have been all for our guns for many many years trying to do so . thing about guns but it's in our d.n.a.
11:42 am
and in americans they can't get it out it's impossible it's like a bad stage i'm not a bad stain but it's like a stain it's never going to go away we're always going to have no. it was. you someone said that it's right. for center disaster she teaches them already we didn't train him here at least 5 or 6 teachers will be carrying guns i want the syrian military with you make. me sitting in war you know you have anybody to tell. exactly what they're. telling us is down the street from my
11:43 am
school and now we have one fire drill every month same with code red every month in code yellow every month when she go on code red you turn off the lights bring down the shade and you go high like to where like if they look in the window they can't see you like one of the walls but we had one on call back on valentine's day and then i texted my sister saying i'm on code red and she's like yeah there's a shooting at douglas and that's when i told my friends and they started freaking out because their siblings go there it's very close and they're very touchy when it comes to that subject of guns because i say you know i support them but they have to be used the right way you can't you can't use them to threaten somebody with or bring them to school to show your friends you know it's not it's not it's not a toy you're so many veterans that are coming back. you know that are
11:44 am
very there are guards they become police officers give them a job just because if he was served our country and here i've been a part of his body blown off or shot off amputated or something he'd be a perfect candidate in that school inside there in the give give him a gun. and he will stop a threat before they have good parents in the p.t.s.d. you know. after what they've done to jenna that stuff covers a lot of areas and now they have to pay attention to $10.00. that's also police officers go through that then everybody so there's 'd there's ways to to to keep an eye on these people i feel and i'm sure if
11:45 am
they if they let a police officer carry a firearm. they could let somebody go in there a lot of more police officers or ex-military. after a traumatic event and we know that one thing that facilitates healthy coping is children feeling like they're safe and so you know i think that the idea is well meaning but on the flip side it may also inadvertently send a message that school actually isn't safe. i think for children who've experienced trauma that could be a big trigger for that and be more stressful than it's necessary. i didn't know that i have p.t.s.d. until one of the fire drills and this physics fire drill was i think the 4th one
11:46 am
and it happened the while that was in the same classroom scene see that i was in on february 14th and it brought me back completely hearing my teachers voice having the friend that i was stuck with in the office right next to me made me think should i get up and walk or no or what like what do i do i was in shock i started sweating cold i started breathing heavy and i couldn't control my nerves that's when i realized that. that's when i realized you know like i'm not ok i need to take care of myself to. i have a lot of guts more than i like to tell a lot of people you know so sometimes that's how i'm 40 sometimes i'm 60 i don't let them know exactly how many i've got i could have
11:47 am
a 120 but i let them know that i have a good amount i enjoy bringing my neighbors my neighbors children my neighbors wives and husbands out to the range so they can see and get more comfortable fight i have 17 year old little girl since she was about 7 years old i would take it to the range and we've been learning about gun says she was 7 have progressed from small bullets so now she has her own they are 15 she has her own shotguns she has her own pistols 20 two's is what she joys these are guns that are in the safe so we can have fun we can enjoy. guns are very important in the united states they are central to how americans think about conflict it's the way they think about mediating conflict in the popular culture and their everyday life and their respect for authority they are like what we might call fetish objects they're something that people find attractive as
11:48 am
a way to substitute for actually trying to deal with conflict in more interpersonal ways. guns are important to me because i want to be able to protect myself protect my family everybody that i love that's my god given right it's written down it's you know these are my rights and i want to be able to use them is my activity and put that about me and sign on this pink and purple because i like em purple it's my favorite gun to shoot because like i just love how small that shoot i really don't like a big recoil my gun so the fact that the barrel so mom makes the require a little bit smoother for me to shoot and it's fun because i don't go in the child's room. launched from because. i think my dad is
11:49 am
a very educated mir's and i do support like the values and everything that he says i appreciate the truth and that's what he gives me ron i'm kind of spent no. smoke and made these bullets. mahmoud's my grandmother well show them and so ready to go struggle of like this. means abundance like a few weeks ago we had like a lockdown in my school and we didn't know what was going on we're stuck in a closet for like an hour and a half i text my dad was like look we're on
11:50 am
a code red i don't know what's happening and you know from that point all you can do is really like hide in a corner i've got a text from my daughter there's a lockdown the school there saying that somebody is running around shooting i want to go run to my car go come to my house grab my rifles grab my ammo grab my those grab my helmet and go hit the school. i mean i may not be running around the campus with a gun but i want to throw guns to the teachers a say go get my kid get up or should i come in what you're covering let's go there was a discussion going around a couple months right after the stillman douglas shooting happened that teachers should be able to be armed and that idea was. it was i i like the idea personally but there's a lot of teachers like i said that have these democratic my sis they're like no i don't want to have a gun and then these kids are like the teachers to shoot and it's like that is such
11:51 am
an idiotic my. i think the reality of gun violence and the reality in these high security schools is something that poorer kids in more violent communities have been living with for a long time and it's now that it's heading out into other neighborhoods that we're starting to talk about it more about it's something that's been a reality for a lot of our kids for quite some time. miami gardens has some people refer to it murder gardens the beautiful area as you can see like a lot of trees a lot of just it's a lot of shootings so a friend died a few family members been to say it as it continues just not so much so but continues as all of us all people go by this continue to happen without no
11:52 am
intention. i have to be outside almost every day to find a home we just go out because everybody wonderfully football basketball want to do so in a lot of young kids really go outside unless it's the weekend because bond week is a pretty much the same right here. so here it is experience even dinosaurs so this is happening or have somebody in your family said it had been a you have been a big deal 5 years you know my husband got shot in the head random dive sizes. and she and i have been there's a lot in his head but he's doing fine now but a couple years ago it was really like a traumatic the experience for him. so how do you guys now would you say it was a drag they did with it it's harder now wasn't that entire he was playing
11:53 am
basketball at the part it was just a random night spray shooting so out now let's talk about your best friend had a gun and i was walking down trees you know up and out the alpha plus i'm here with this gun so let's say you have jeremiah job on would you feel more comfortable trying to jump on not to use a gun and i will not example i would try to convince the von maur didn't commit a murder because i could lose my life and i no one nobody me how do you feel about being outside how do you feel about going to the parks tell me a little bit of your views and how you feel about just being in the community i don't usually like to be quiet because mostly in parts you feel like you're going to be see play no one's going to do anything we always have to like be aware of your surroundings absolutely so you don't let what's going on stop you from living your best life. ok anybody else how you feel.
11:54 am
i mean you've got to sign people or because i know there's a bastable and are going to better around 7 states i would say i'm a spammer to anybody else. thank you. in my neighborhood in people i hang around with most media always try to make money positive you go but if something goes wrong you have they could fall off the wrong track get into dros drugs in america you can see at a lot of drugs even the inner city school we don't worry about was going to happen mostly what happened inside is maybe a fight outside of the school that's what we look to as an oh ok now i've got to survive this fight now this is my starting point so in the future is going to.
11:55 am
be something i want to do entrepreneurship so this is a stepping stone to like. any were young and we got in their way to be i try to be role model to them so they could be role models they get older to meet other people so that know no more of a young people have to go get shot or have a good in this or if it from being alone of being afraid to do what they want to. meet or to look at. everything. if they weren't. sure i. after the shooting all of us students came together because we wanted change but i think we all realize that politics are slower. than we imagined but we're trying to as much as possible or so far and we just heard in the senate
11:56 am
and the congress or just in the government sometimes we're in tallahassee florida at the moment the house of representatives capitol building and we are fighting for voices to be because we don't want to see a new dispute to get heard. for a long time i think that you have not been able to affect change in the united states and when and where they have tried they have been boarded by adult culture or by market oriented culture was and i think until you see a transition of power between the generations it will be very difficult for young people to affect much change so you see. so you know. i've tried to be careful with what i say sometimes and i know that there's a lot of people that probably won't like me and that there's are going to be haters they point out that our shooting was as fake as the sandy hoax and the only dumb
11:57 am
bodies you have it's just a lot of stupid comments that i really personally don't pay attention to there's comments here that are calling me off for being a crisis i there and these are companies that i honestly don't pay attention to and could care less they could express their opinion anywhere they want to i am just going to keep on moving forward and posting my content because that's what matters and that's what brings me happiness and i completely changed i feel like i became an adult and that i realized what life was like how cruel everything truly is in the intentions of some people are just beyond my imagination and then when it's like 217 people i learned what it's like to go to their funerals and just have that sadness that no one can take away. i learned what it's like to tell your mom i love you but you know what was going to be the last time the spike the trauma we lived
11:58 am
on february 14th there are a lot of good things that came afterwards and to this day i say that and the 17 angels are passed away that they are looking over us because they truly are blessed my life and the lives of many others and we are better catering are there for the 2 of them because they they are the reason why we are pushing forward in a while we are motivated to keep on well. radicalism is on the rise across the globe and we're told it's everywhere yes we're told we're supposed to be highly suspicious of everybody and everything but our government policies aimed at tackling radicalization in fact pushing youngsters to the fringes of society the impact is utopian on them and there's only so much we can strike before you say ok that's me rethinking radicalization part of the
11:59 am
radicalized youth series on al-jazeera. but i'm mad no mood out of his parents' house after he got to me he says he found more space to begin discussing after a run of eating it last year it's now his home along with his wife daughter and health but it's really government said that he was reconstructed we've gotten permits and issued at the militia in order last month our interview were cut short as he hears that the israeli army has arrived in the village with the bulldozer residents say soldiers give them one minute to get home it took the found me months to build their brick house and nothing an hour to see it get demolished. i really did a bad thing. would i be able to forgive somebody like me a convicted war. criminal who seeks out the survivors of a prison camp to apologize for the crimes of his past i just can't get even.
