1:38 am
a minimum there's an issue. here in india. they were close to ten dollars a day it's hard work well work is not easy to work and so they want to relieve their stress and how do they relieve their stress things and then move back out like he's mentally back comfort these many sacks. people have been murdered up here people been raped there are massive drug issues up here you have a boom you have everything else that comes along with money. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of the global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred

1:40 am
about two paychecks away from homelessness. but america at least. back at harvard square max is looking for someone he can fight with there we're talking about america. like what it means you know i am better able i work with a masterpiece a martial i'm not going to do work for them i want to miss nancarrow support of my marginal and i want to know my back if you separate what i think you know and then see how it was all screwed up and if you start to start i'm thirty seven years old my soul goes a long time and oh my i'm off of that so your name a few more nine thousand six hundred ten players are what your sign of aquarius on the jump when you're chinese in the wild yeah i'm a pig i can operate

1:43 am
happened. we just like me it was me and three my friends my primary friend and her husband and all the friends and all three of us that we were like we need to get home now was our main focus i'm sorry i'm you know it really was. a tissue brother or american or something i'm sort. of anything like that i didn't think i was going to get emotional well you know you're good you're fine. that's kind of are you break up with just because. so far for me it's a it's a one to one city in america i mean it's all over america it's a big country right there are states that are completely empty right and so you know our territories like wondering. ok. how about this phrase i see last yeah i think not the first time what is amazing after the first time i guess
1:44 am
is you're not. on the list came up after the bombing at the marathon bombing. but i do know that there was a whole box of strong i don't think came. from one of them is what's what's going on and it means that. we like look up the breach of the time terry. things like that like one other point when you feel it's all around i mean i guess that i'm told in terms of my what's going on here i don't feel like that right now my grandfather had been up for it and he just had like so much right to talk about the american flag or american like that that's happening right now very we need to not feel like when they need it that's their part that you're here because you know any other place you stand they got to meet with me to get a i don't want to train i felt much you know rock and you know on that day yeah like
1:45 am
a lot of talk like him. after. all this went down the trains were running they kept the trains running to let people get out of there yes. and there were like law enforcement with like huge guns in like backpacks like all over the place like just people yeah and your girlfriend was pretty sure running into it was she couldn't write the time you know yeah yeah . scared there was terrifying actually because we didn't know if there was going to be another one not to go off or away or you know when so it was it was. i can't even put in words. how did mom and dad were there to. be friendly happy to see me when i go home because they can you get ahold of me because you know all the phones were down you know you can make any phone calls you
1:46 am
can text you can do anything so they didn't know where i was or if i was still around or anything. so when i finally got home. the there was a voice in your ear. if you. think i'm just. trying to stay away from the tissue myself here. just to jump to the next idea i'm going to say. so that happens. but you still live there. it's my home it's still home. where the heart i listen i got you. because my mama what america me.
1:47 am

1:48 am
boston did a very good job catching those guys. yeah what are law enforcement deals with i know firsthand because my dad is a police officer so. i know what he goes through. you know coming out of it are you stronger. or you're getting there i'm getting there. was forced but that's raised a pretty terrific daughter help her friend. she was pregnant. she had the people. on the morning she holds the boy and. what's not. so. happens here. is the. latest implant. not enough

1:50 am
fund the east coast right in the summer and most of the gulf coast and along came and there's a transformation coming your neighborhood my god. what are you going to propose. we would do but there's a lot we're going to call and i think the name we learned from was it a dream come true we're going to work i mean it's going to stop such a long. for a while it doesn't work to be a man. for asking everybody on the greenberg pilgrimage what is america to you everything you've touched on the touched you. this is still lead to dreams or is it just ok if it was a land of dreams i mean my parents definitely reached the you know my dad was he always wanted to be gone police officer did that you know i was a member as a member of let's raise does almost went to college you know have good jobs but lead america now more homelike the way things are google weighing in with this new
1:51 am
president and. terrorism going people killing each other i mean it makes me scared to even raise kids in this world now because look at what they have to look forward to you know. wondering if someone's going to bomb their school without a doubt i want children but i would fear for them you know. i mean with the news you can't even watch the news these days but there it is just bad you know and you don't see anything going on is it. up to. go on your train. so. you're still cool with america i'm so cool i'm still here things are going to get better i'm hopeful. good awful let things get better that's but that's true so there's too much going on now but i'm hoping that things will turn eventually turn. to thanks for coming in for me thanks for sharing your story

1:53 am
when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer and it means to live the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying and those just new leaders hasn't.
