10:53 am
a typed them by saying all of them a bit because they'd be doing with someone new to me that with so many times they go to call here by me like yeah yeah i'm a gangster that's what happened against theirs they get pulled over by the cops you know when really i'm not really a gangster is maybe still like that you know it made me feel like i was i wasn't even wanted in my own society. by the priest or you say. the police or the. man may be. i was just a little. bit ahead of the game. for

10:55 am
one of the most extreme examples of the city's arrest mentality is a story of kevin griffin very first run in with the first offense ten years old never done anything remotely as bad i got a lot of fights as a kid you know with other children but never so this experience and kevin was a kid he was cornered by three bullies he broke a bottle to definitive and the show it blinded one of the boys kevin was arrested and tried for attempted murder my legal came to court drunk every b. he greet the alcohol every time so i now have a great defense kevin served five years in it to lure you prison and not the easy and it was a lot of that a lot of thinking going on you know is like wind me a lot and then by me being a christian i was like a lot of tall going to get out and leave next mason because like i'm ten. i'm sitting here in
10:56 am
a sale there i'm still so. all arguments circles around kevin into the place more brutal than the place he left behind a lot of abuse by guards a lot of kids. among. as well but a lot of the stem from the abuse from from the guards if you use up the kids released to lou prison was closed for mistreatment of makes by the department of justice would assistance from the juvenile justice project of louisiana you know there's a lot of misconceptions about what are the most effective ways to reduce juvenile crime or to improve public safety across the board well we too often see is putting more money into building more prisons or you know the solution is more police officers on the street. diplomacy that seems to be coming from washington it appears to be just falling
10:57 am
short of expectations of the united states as a superior negotiator as a superior diplomatic player but we see what happened in egypt after the arab spring and the election of morsi if there was a space there where the united states could have played a critical role just assuring more morsi on a path that would have maybe brought bandsman jobs economic development in that period of time the united states faltered and it's the policy ok you don't like the u.s. coming in and telling them how they should conduct i understand that any case on the morsi thing there's not much more the u.s. could have done now in iran if the u.s. is trying to start a new talks with with the iranian government and yet it's getting clobbered in the middle east by the saudis who don't want to do it by the israelis or don't want to do a very good friend with good friends i want to call

all the special so you see it's more. banks are the main reason bad banking system is the main reason that triggered the banks. of the whole. as responsible including the us computing. to the accounting rooms. of all soldiers a rating agency. of course you know the bank and non-banks and the naive belief that we were you know were real there was an automatic correction of the market themselves the theory of efficiency of markets was also paul scholes.
