commanding. lead as you don't consume. the only thing on the us and in that are equal in it's own citizens or legal system. doesn't don't need a. wooden man as is. in new orleans two centuries of slavery have left painful scars within the african-american community. that accounts for two thirds of the town's population moreover that african-americans feel that they were abandoned during hurricane katrina. in two thousand and five under the pressure of the water dozens of poorly maintained levees broke. mud flooded eighty percent of the town that was under sea
5:43 am
level. today the town still bears the scars of the disaster especially the porn neighborhoods. aka the dancing man those here one of the most devastated areas. he believes that nothing has been done to rehabilitate this neighborhood. i don't like. this kind of stuff right. after it's me. this is only one of about twenty thousand. that twenty times stuff like this all. right. but. there was a bend in there is that the reason for the increased crime rate. this
5:44 am
is all. black neighborhood. high crime people comic crime anywhere from trumps wherever you got drugs are. african american people the flow speed with the situation of the country no job no food if you're not easy. if you're now the. zero zero one a situation. you will go to the street the hungry people go to did street. since the hurricane criminality has increased by forty percent. on the other side of the city we encounter a different atmosphere. louisiana is a former french colony and the most touristic are you really the french i.
5:45 am
mean of course from all around the world gathered a. lot of the. success . and of course here jazz is everywhere. mars with dan three hours every. day for the last two. years and it is also claimed by violence last year one person was killed and nine were injured in a shoot out in the middle of the french quarter. and another night a man attempts to kidnap
5:46 am
a drunk girl. the man tries to stop him. but the aggressor points it was the end of. the man begs for mercy. but the aggressor shoots him in the stomach then tries to kill him. luckily his weapon jams. the shooter takes flight. the men will survive this incident. the aggressor you're a cain twenty one has already been charged with rape and robbery. you'll be arrested two days later. my knight these types of aggressions are multiplying especially in restaurants which have become new targets for the criminals. the pathway is a fancy restaurant. from six months ago the own choosing and his team were the victims of an armed robbery. as lorenzo general manager. fellow
5:47 am
for the back right up front you know. how you do it it's a riot. yeah on that day the restaurant was packed like it is tonight. the security cameras have recorded the whole scene. there were three robbers. one guy came in and maybe a second had he said slated to get came in behind him the first and then the second guy came in that area telling me to go rounds the first day he wanted to hear the register. right here in the drawer then for a second put a gun to his head made it go to the ground they got this is not a job now or what else. play in carries a gun but he chose not to use it on that night avoiding
5:48 am
a bloodbath it's the threat of being shot or killed that's the it's not a wallet it's not a cellphone it's not money it's not stealing my car it's someone gets shot and there's no other option do you carry a gun to know it's a difficult issue though because i'm not for it but in a mill you like this worse there are so many dangerous people with guns it makes sense for people those guns to protect themselves. in the united states the gun issue is a sensitive subject. are they responsible for the increasing number. in new orleans more and more people chose to arm themselves. play. friend of forty years old former police officer. he doesn't leave the house
5:49 am
without his arsenal and i have a main gun it just goes right here my waistband. the only medical it has and it is really very simple it just has what we call a combat gauze this particular gauze has a static agent. and he in the not only saw they both have this wave opening feature which imagine my my pocket here but this little hook as i go to pull this out the pocket this little hook catches the inside of the pants and it opens it automatically has a hole it out so i can i can defend myself from either side maybe a push against a wall and this side i'm not a big get this knife so i can get to this one or vice versa. like most people in new orleans brennan was traumatized by katrina. at the time he was still a police officer get to face chaos. this is if you know right there's the mississippi river this is all part of the levee system there was a breach in
5:50 am
a levee where one of the oil tanker barges hit it in with that there was some oil so it was really nasty down here. disaster. when you have adversity at the level that katrina was that's when those true color start coming out. of family members to dallas to evacuate and when i was coming back into the city in dallas texas i had in a p.d. units passing me leaving the city. many police officers never returned. and now we're you know we're very low on manpower dangerously low not only for the citizens but for the department themselves i mean these guys are you know we look we get more and more people shoot up police is just it's never seen more that than i've ever seen before. obsessed with. safety. he transformed his car into a real armory. i keep
5:51 am
a lot of this stuff handy just in case again something crazy happens active shooter as a you know so carry permit also keep a rifle it's actually technically a pistol but i keep something that's a little bit big thanks for sparing a fundraising here from an automatic gun oh oh how far is the range of zero zero zero zero zero zero let us know a little bit with a growing insecurity about brennan says miss is flourishing because like especially considering that in louisiana arm sales are deregulator cool clothes you know if you anything i know you would say you have gone fighting and you carry it with you you have it on you today and you're sure you're ok so you feel in danger. even if. in this town the number of firearms is booming. their sales doubled the last ten years.
5:52 am
but in new orleans. a man has found another solution than weapons to fight criminality. it's in the heart of the french quarter that live city tourist a forty year old millionaire. he made a fortune in the garbage disposal service. i'm trying to get you know rat today only a totally good quote around eight hundred ninety thousand earth by. a million. his house had been burglarized several times so sidney decided to invest part of his fortune into the security of the french quarter. he created a unique and. it allows people to send real time information to the policeman of
5:53 am
the neighborhood. you see something that says look suspicious prostitution drug dealing you see somebody getting rob you take this out and you can take a picture and send it and it goes directly here it's like having a police officer in your pocket. yeah although one second this is a crime just came in over the radio and they say they sent a picture here you see suspicious person dolfin in governor nichols and they took a picture of him see him on the corner you see him on the ground they act like they're sleeping but they're they actually rob people when you walk by. his idea was born after his conflict with the mayor of new orleans who he publicly accused of being in active in front of the rise of criminality i tried to get a meeting with the mayor and he wouldn't meet with me so i made a thirty second commercial and i started putting it all over the t.v. calling the mayor out on the crime in the cities the french quarter is under siege
5:54 am
by criminal the problem can be it is only six blocks by thirteen. you may as well advised me to come in this equipment from the millionaire office to you know the violence in the city cleaned every same way they did with garbage. we should hope for the ministry for that was a real provocation. and so he didn't like it and he took offense to it he made millions and millions and millions of dollars off a garbage contract in the french quarter and maybe he should just to get some of that money and do it himself if he thinks it's so easy it's just not like i decided to follow his advice and invested several hundred thousand dollars to create the french quarter task force a unit that works directly with the task force you download it and you're able to connect police do exactly this was something that was launched just days ago in tonight's businessman city tour today the young millionaire has become a star in the american media. you know who as you can see had way
5:55 am
less gray white black and blue. this afternoon as yet another t.v. interview. has become a reference in the fight against criminality. you know it's not just what people in jail for arresting are way off it's not that fast we have to have programs the mayor the city the citizens work together. if we receive so my. should tension it's because his app is a real success and is maybe. studying so hard it requires drug. going through humiliation to enter an elite society. and poaching to death sometimes quite literally. wants other true colors of universities in the
5:56 am
u.s. . what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line and they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. want to. have to be like to be impressed with a white woman for three of them or can't be good that. i'm interested in the waters and. question. years ago i traveled across the united states exploring america's deadly love affair with a gun if a bad guy tried to get to one of my family members he would have better luck with that better and i think they are and hurting one of my my baby says my book was
5:57 am
published in the year two thousand more than half a million americans have been killed by firearms in the us i only had a thought to me as we go through drills. i just saw i did to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met and photographed those years ago i don't know that but we are not. really good. at something you really want to know it's not going to remind you that.
