6:35 am
someone who hated us that much, that they wanted to kill us? this is someone who mistook goes for someone else. so someone who just fired a gun in that direction and we just happened to be there. i don't know, but it's no different than lots of other folks who get shot in the united states. as in arizona state legislator, jennifer longed an advocate. so background checks on gun purchases, unsafe guns, storage every year i've run a very simple bill around safe storage. so if a child in your home is injured because you doesn't safely secure your firearm, you're facing a fine. that's all a fine. um and i haven't been able to get that bill heard. i run it every year, but i can't get it moved into a committee. i think that it's possible to do it. i have to believe that in order
6:36 am
to keep doing it, if this were easy, we'd be done. uh, and it's not simple. it's not. but i believe so little by little by little, we're going to make a difference. she's waging an uphill battle in a country that's more um to the nasa. every vodka, arizona hoffman, i was drive from the mexican border this disaster diarrhea located along the war, started by donald trump, has been home to extreme missed anti immigrant finishes for years. the mat, you're the driver's. got the

6:38 am
for the get it right to is on the different right. they say the to help out the us border patrol, which they claim is over stretched. it's not a legal as long as they didn't hold the migrant against that. well, the many of the vigilantes say they of us to ins and to force in iraq or afghanistan, the find americans that lead to tim solely used to work in construction. that move to the border of to the 2008 financial crisis. an odd and fine if donald trump, he says he even travel to washington on january the 6th 2021, but didn't take posts in the attack on the capital. the founding fathers,
6:39 am
the constitution is easy to follow. they made its short, quick, simple. it's to protect us against the government. if they become to tyrannical, they're pushing the the area. okay, is the nice town before the boat at the nearest police station is more than an hour away by calm diminishing i give some of the towns $600.00 or so inhabitants a feeling of security despise a fatal incident on may. the 30th 2009. that's when members of a different vigilante group broke into a private home, claiming drug smugglers lift that they killed a 10 year old, go and test all the the, the mazda. so in judge managed to call for help.

6:41 am
by virtue of the us constitution didn't protect a states rights happens, alicia, or, in other words, have a slave patrol that could fundamentally undermine the system of slavery. that was part and parcel of the united states. adage, county, the, there was lots and lots of concern about labor value and about insurrection, about the idea that in slaves, peoples would understandably rebel. and so without a slave patrol, there was a lot of fear among ways that i'm, that this whole system wouldn't be in the 18th century, um, diminishes in full slavery nose. in $1861.00 white's fee is if the results were realized. then black preaching, not 10, uh let a bloody insurrection against white slave holders diminishes revenge swiftly followed to now was hind more than
6:42 am
a 100 of the slaves killed the thread was med really with an extreme show of force. and so we see this not just in terms of the brutality of slave patrols, but also the brutality of, of white supremacist militias in the aftermath of the civil war. so the ku klux klan, we see this in the context of lynch mobs. and then of course, we see this all the way until the so called self defense shootings in which, you know, we have african americans and people of color being gone down. these are very much imbedded in the racial politics of the united states. the use of documented cases show a deadly packing of police violence against the black circle. in 2016 for alondo cas style was shot dead in his car to ring a traffic stop the
6:43 am
2020 brionas taylor was killed by police in her apartment in the middle of the night in the same yes. 3 white men shots a mode operate. well, he was joking. killings that shook the country and sparked protest. so now a shot prize in anti black hate crimes has led more and more black americans to um themselves. how are you doing jo? nice to meet you ma'am. nice to meet you. i know. all right, phillips macy's found and president of the national african american gun association. since its founding in 2015 membership has grown 245000 so black americans in the us buying homes in large numbers is a new phenomenon. for what's the name of the folder?

6:45 am
tv show by the twins because you over there. the worst thing that i can do is to say, you know what, i don't deserve this got my ancestors, harriet tubman, the buffalo soldiers, the tuskegee airmen, the black panthers and self defense of the deacons. the defense net turned all those black men and women, and many, many more, and many more organizations that they die for nothing. the one thing we should do after a black person a shot is the next day we all to carry. it's historically asking americans have been given this socialization that we do not need to have guns. we're the only community ethnically in the world that believes that there's this. think about that statement. you don't need guns to protect yourself, but everyone else around you has guns. what kind of crazy mental state do you have to be to believe that? and people wonder why. okay, why are blackman being attacked on a sunday after looking at houses and jogging and 3 white guys drop by in the truck and jump out and, and, and beat him up and shoot him. why does that happen?
6:46 am
because we continue to act like we're, it's okay to be a soft target. statistically in comparison to the white counts of pumps. that males in america are 18 times more likely to be injured by a gun. and 12 times more likely to be killed with the fire around you it can you just see the city sits just across the river from new york count as long suffered from high rates of poverty and crime. nearly haul says new ext, approximately 300000 residents. of black gun, those in new jersey are among the strictest in the country. and the state test, one of the lowest rates of firearm deaths, cities like music, all the exception. here on average, someone dies from gun violence every day. the intensive care units at
6:47 am
university hospital in newark treats many gunshot victims this is where the shown where the fault for his life. the hey, talk to stephanie bonnie, is the true massage and who helped save him or do this? i guess i see how you doing this isn't a lot for me. so how are you feeling today? like how are things going to be so you had to re thread the surgery from when you guys close up the stomach. yeah, so much or can i take a look? can i see what the bed? sure. all right, the plastic. see? oh, nice, nice, nice, nice, nice asian. did you ever costs me remind me this is the volume. yeah. okay. so most of them, most of here. so so you had this one here, he was hit by 6 bullet steering an altercation. one of them into the major,

6:49 am
physically processing me trying to figure myself in . thank you. the talk to bonnie is a specialist in gunshots. injuries she spent is advocating for gun violence prevention. a lot of people don't realize or understand what happens after somebody gets shot. we're very good at sort of counting the number of people who die, but there's really very little attention paid to the people that are shot and survive. and that's a lot to a lot of people. um and so a lot of times people are never really the same. they might have all kinds of injuries that they can never recover from. some people may require imputation. they might have bad hernias. they might need cost to me bags to all kinds of things that
6:50 am
are really life changing. gun violence looks like an infectious disease that looks like the flu. sometimes, you know, one person gets it and then the next person, the next person in the next person. and given the volume that we see, that the number of people that are affected is absolutely can be characterized as an academic gun violence isn't submitted to the in the city. it is alone being wide spread throughout the country. jacksonville, florida is no exception. the here 2 guns often children and test families of pumps. the crystal tanner last 2 if have 4 children to guns island now she's raising her 2 grandchildren.
