every time night barack or do they change me on to fatten. you to see somebody landed in a coal we don't need no bottle full of the seed a need to send out a young gays can explore my life it's a lot of. the first that they had been because of violence it was like you know it was a shotgun but we came together. the second one it was odd but we still came to get it and it there when everybody just seemed just in case split up.

one thing we do as citizens one thing we tend to do is to humanize human beings so we talk in terms of how many people were murdered in the world's what are the numbers so what do we do about that mindset what do we do to humanize murder the only way that we could think to do it was to name them. each day is listed on a board with the name of the person they're a judge and how they were killed without respect to where they're from what their color is what they did or did not do for a living whether they graduated or didn't from a school where they deal in drugs or not you don't know if you look at that board.

there. he was here frankly i'm not sure. why my. shah sometimes i look at our little church on our little walls and say you know how much wall space do i have here after a while this will get to look silly and stuff like that and i suppose when we looked more like maybe milwaukee and a half million people and they killed fifty three people not two hundred fifty.

yards ha ha ha. my name is me up iraq as a kid growing up in the projects of new orleans i saw shootings like this all the time and eventually committed acts of violence myself at the serving five years in jail i began to help kids to mentor but this story isn't about me this is a story about the environment in which i grew up. a wild night across metro new orleans someone sprays a crowd with bullets as they were leaving a high school basketball game five people i thought good evening and all nine people were shot tonight including an eleven year old in five separate shootings in new orleans and jefferson parish has a nine year old boys are covering tonight after another drive by shooting in new orleans east it's much like the one where the two year old girl was shot and killed

several kids round side playing in the middle of the afternoon when the gunfire broke out a shooting happened just after seven i want to see was called in the last fire. it's a way that is a record it was the target shooting. this is a story about what it's like being young and surrounded by family but it's also a story about finding solutions up much murder you tolerate as unable. to tolerate as an adult to watch the children have to see this day after day not be entertained. in one nine hundred sixty new orleans had his largest population and as small as murder rate but in the course of fifty years over ten thousand people have been murdered and since two thousand and five more people have been killed than those who lost their lives when the levees broke. at this moment there was a battle being waged each and every day on the streets of new orleans it is

a battle for the heart and soul of this great city by the time you wake up tomorrow morning i will have likely received another message. the worst part of my day that says exactly the same thing mr mayor was sorry to inform you that earlier this evening police officers responded to gunshots when they arrived on the scene they found a young african-american male face jail and in blood gunshots in the back of his head he was announced dead on arrival there are no witnesses.

the first script that. day and in all our son's right culture next one that's a load of crap and over there you know got your next one that's ok i would go to the next one i still room can you i'm a real live people if the people listening to can tell you i'm tom i take children . across the street from the shoot there's a screen printing shop or rest in peace t. shirts of the most popular i think it was served when a person passed away it's like giving flower was just basically to remember that person to show that this was my friend this was my loved one the day he died the next morning in the shop get my shirt and here we have a shirt every day until that person is better dressed. similar.

to. when you hold a shirt you write you were sometimes. hurt so much that people don't have words and now it's me to come up with words when x. me to come up with words our actual what type of person was and from there the designs come from mighty many shops have opened to meet the demands for shirts about twenty all together with a three mile square radius there's not a soul as i basically want to do birthdays for every old in pain is more living than you can survive without the one rest in peace or with your business will never grow because i'm the world's. best to my whole family rest in peace dressed in jeans.

he was the quiet person he was the hard work but he worked on the riverfront and he loved to spend the time with his kids wish they were babies when he was killed it was one and three he had a nickname goof troop after the the disney character goofy because he always said funny things you know to make people laugh the boys they played back in my head all the time is like what's wrong with my what i can remember about david is when he's twelve years trying to. scratch records on my little k.-mart stereo hours and hours and hours of david spending at his turntables mixing music and making music i think we were watching like american idol or talent show i can just remember that the people on t.v. saying and they sounded really bad for van want to go out on his birthday to celebrate with when i was nephew and this car pulled up into a parking lot that was there was nearby and told them to come here. and that's when the nightmare begins we hear anecdotes sounds like an explosion that pop pop pop

but bill the whole house shakes he showed me is like my get up to shut an engine my gosh and then i look down and there's lots of. lying on the ground there's a hole in his chest where the bullet bite in this test me behind me here and he died instantly and the core and then and then you're left with the blood on the sidewalk the neighbors the police tape much i was killed for no reason no reason. he's saying is that he done it because because my son just was standing there he was going to be a witness somebody had that much power in their life that they woke up and decided another human being would not walk the planet earth another day or remember. the room.

feel. magri is the high school she likes documents life video cam i want to let you guys see. how hard i'm trying to get to my goal. i want to be a courier so you know that's not going to be easy this going to be tough challenges in life but i really want to be a congressman i know what it takes to get to and i'm striving for you know stand on their road of what it takes right now in this moment the struggles are similar to many teens amat is extremely frustrated visitation all i want to do is just do this right but sometimes just want to just do the simple thing a simple attached to his right just kind of no more you know especially when you get kids churning so you're in the teachers trying to make you feel stupid about

you raise your hand excellent question you know know matt took a video camera to school to record a class was all right if you raise your my question oh i know anybody. can see it was. somebody you know i can hear it when it was a. you know his dad if you close where he. was going to be now what you want you know you do not continue to throw p.b.'s meet somebody new years younger. you know make you hit you with. this course is basically like this and waiting for the teacher you know when you know you know what it was all exist. and you know what we're looking at teacher got

an issue you know you're not missing out on years ago even to webster. you. you know needed. i did write my name on it will hear what is missing. from this economy of. the ancient near east. could. help me. i'm not sure i think part of what you have to let a real me have made you want. to know the. word.

but let me just tell you something right now president george w. bush never claimed the right to extradition really assassinate american citizens this president barack obama should be impeached for crimes against the citizens and against the constitution because he has killed women and children in drone strikes so i just like to say that i think that history is not going to judge the presidency of barack obama and george bush in the same light whatsoever i think obama is way worse than bush and i am not a big fan of george w. bush ok and you could probably be co-hosting this program i guess i don't need to say very much definitely give you reflective on what we've heard from good ruby and from austin there there is no compare and contrast between either president whatsoever besides having

a spending problem this president currently hispanic and below into debt and deficits out of control more than a. all presidents combined however george w. bush did spend too much but his governing style foreign policy prowess taking us at a crisis and leadership style are night and day over what president obama's are. when the crisis leaves us traces everywhere. empty classrooms become the norm. children pay for the mistakes of adults. by working in a tobacco fields or in the café. they are the ones who come back home blasts. so kids games are just in their memories.

have been many changes to the public school system in the last few years but cutesy classes like math are still com students with disciplinary issues may be punished but in many cases the root causes are not address often these problems escalate to violence. and sometimes their resume after school where there's greater access to weapons. they grab a certain neighborhood make you feel like you need something to protect yourself and you know if this is not going to take you to the state because you came points above all no fighting wants i mean this is my fight and in school mike we can get out just any minor just because why i think kids have guns is for all different types of reasons i think perception is the main reason why people have what do you

protect yourself. out of a lot of people who. are negative but it's something that they get respect from the chapel both you have. a k forty seven. and we can we caught in the chapel i was still going his way easier to get than to take food now hit the farthest cellar like. well like beds and pull about the textbooks are way more expensive to get to some people get it from for. some time most of the time it be legal but you have to order them online and stuff like this you can just walk into the store and buy and i don't see textbooks like that in wal-mart. take. the rap group u t p featuring juvenile produced a hit single know you clap in two thousand and four the group also included the

rapper skill who continues to perform as a solo artist in addition to on the call but to me it's difficult to. change but. i made it sound about eight nine months ago when i had like a string of murders and like five murders and six murders in three days and i was right and it was too weak and out you know like somebody has got to care for i was made a sound hundred percent of the violence people started to man was like a parade but. i actively managed to mean there was no got to be any thousand fifteen hundred homes in the east like i have friends that it might have been murdered thirty years and i see the amount of the some papers they have to get on like classics travel like i do really feel may not be like i really figured to i might be afraid to name my style name in there but i might be afraid the name was in the frame i just want to see if it became like jack it was a really no bystander nobody really doing that in

a like manner in my up to remember the night and like i did what happened and i'm like man no everybody can feel like. they had a gun shop it was on the borderline of like new orleans and jefferson parish called elliot's and it was just so and so. you get can just this was no paradise a lot of hunting going only it is normal and then in the wheezy and the last station you must be twenty want to buy hank but you can buy a hunting rifle at the age of eighteen assault rifle falls into the hung rival category so if you have look class s k s's in a cave one hundred eighty nine it's no use i didn't say you eight hundred by one and a hundred. he just makes a hundred dollars and i hope i was in the hood have a kid i was alright with thirty round clip if you let the people instead of them going to operate in the art of fifteen twenty years the cumulation of guns they give to the streets has got to be astronomical and you wonder why the murder rate

our because everybody got to stop right. it was at one time i live by just i'm going to venice i was tired of going for man i love him i was i will view the body i'm a fan of both but i've got a friends in the way repay and i'm just kind of. has too much in.

the bank mustapha you know a way to get some of the. you know the count as a problem before it gets to that problem. when the more not the for these children more just growing up as well just to live and survive and just the work the system the judge the librettist this is going to be in jail there the next five ten years is that you can see can see a guy like that almost two four six seven children over there under the age of ten ten more years where would they be if this can see on being like this you know. in two thousand and six lisa and danny fiz patrie moved to new orleans to continues lisa's work with youth and the summer they started

a camp for kids who had nothing to do two weeks after summer camp a young man was shot a block and a half from here when that occurred and i'm driving home seeing that body on the other side of police tape and what's more than that seeing the kids and the neighbors it was a normal occurrence in their lives and i just said we're going to open a center now we're not going to open it two years from now and i'm going to five years from now we're going to wait to the experts tell us we dotted all the i's and crossed all the t.'s at the center over the fish patches quickly learn about the kinds of obstacles they would face lisa recalls a story about giving one of the kids a bike i gave him a bicycle because he'd been walking to work to the french quarter the donor had been generous with us so we decided to give him the bicycle to go to work he had had that bicycle only a few hours got a block from my house and officer pulled him over yanked him off of his bike

threw him down face down on the ground and accused him of stealing about so now that young man he takes my six year old to the store with him for protection because a six year old white child is protection from the p.d. . and two thousand and eleven report from the department of justice confirms the claims of many new orleans you are findings reveal the pattern or practice of unconstitutional conduct or violations of federal law in several areas these included violations committed by officers through their actions including the use of excessive force unconstitutional stops searches and arrests and racial profiling and ethnic profiling the report details day indeed the limited arrest data that the department collects points to racial disparity in arrest of whites and

african-americans and virtually all categories were particularly dramatic disparity african-american youth on the age of seventeen. how many turn of employed by police they don't know me so i might seem like i'm a bad person but you like you don't know me sometimes you know they do good deeds and they help people you haven't. heard of have seen the police horrendous people i've seen them beat people i've seen into people x. me in from my door playing basketball just break the whole basketball game you don't want to go to shoes they don't like the things that make crowds thanks. i think all please copy bill i really want to some of them are bad but not all of them because i met some some police officers will stab me and say i fit that description. so i'm like what the scripture. what i'm playing i don't want to play it on but to close to faith i can't steer by saying all of them

a bit because they will be dealing with someone new to me that with so many times they go to call you by me so i yeah yeah gangster that's why i have been against years to get pulled over by a cops you know when really i'm not really a gangster just made me feel like that you know it made me feel like i was i wasn't even wanted in my own. mind that the president mortgaged. to. leave me. he was the real news. because if.

for those who do get arrested the rollies of the courthouse in orleans parish prison known as opie p c c interviews two brothers about being locked up you have been up to be. right there your man or the boat would be. right or the crazy the error message does doesn't when you don't. know the night before so much ari fill the outlet that might be to get in five education. when you were black in the cell for twenty three hours i do need to get one hour of free for. oh how did i make you feel. i don't want to cage them and hey i like their niggas in a sale a little to sell just get it how you live don't you think that is one of the most

extreme examples of the city's arrest mentality is a story of kevin griffin fare for his run in with the first offense ten years old never done anything remotely has been i got a lot of fights as a kid you know with other children but never so this exploring and kevin was a kid he was cornered by three bullies he broke a bottle to defend himself and the show it blinded one of the boys kevin was arrested and tried for attempted murder my legal came to court drunk every day he greet the alcohol every time so i don't have a great defense kevin served five years in a two lou you prison and not the wheezy 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 is like a lot of talk going to get. me mixed but mason is like i'm ten and i'm sitting here and say oh hey i'm still. all i can run circles around kevin

into the place more brutal than the place he left behind a lot by guards a lot of chaos among among the four inmates there as well but a lot of the stem from the abuse from from the guards if you years have to kevin's release to look prison was closed down for mistreatment of makes by the department of justice what 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. wealthy british style it's time to. go.

to. the market find scandal find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headline is joining two kinds of reports on r.t. . if you're thinking about an alcoholic drink associated with russia it's probably not going to be one that springs into your head but they've been making it here on the black sea coast for more than two thousand kids and there's an industry which really can compete with the best the rest of the world has to offer i've come to meet some of the people going the greats and to see if i can find out the secret to the perfect.

you know there's one thing that i still can't understand it and i don't want to hear good mood but i have this one question when doing this all for you that you had everything they respect and so that you give them all up and decided to go your way but what for. it was a way to inform he tried to restrain himself but look first out anyway. it really puts me off that i have such a father. who is one small but very great secret that i have to live with for.
