1:38 am
i believe that the environment that you grow up in is a huge part as to what you experience you know i as well as what you become when you grow up. oftentimes in pittsburgh people die in specific locations they utilize the flowers and teddy bears or create a memorial on the spot. so hopefully as a reminder to continue to reinforce why. not going the negative route or the dark route. in my adult life i've had six friends that have never heard of you gun violence in homewood. one was working as a bartender at a local bar and the patron came in and decided to shoot him inside the bar another
1:39 am
young woman named jenny's toe and she was murdered in a bar of the street from the y.m.c.a. because she didn't want to give her phone number to a gentleman that was there and then there's another one of our friends named frederick douglas that was murder right on on frank's on avenue not sure for what for what reason exactly but all these places are within. two minutes of the y.m.c.a. which is unique because that's where a lot of our kids go. to . basketball is a easy game for kids to pick on because all you need is a basket. you can get lost in a game for hours or years or even a lifetime for some people like michael jordan or kobe bryant.
1:40 am
the columns are a motivation and more importantly gives them an opportunity to explain. a lot of kids who look up to athletes and entertainers so even want to be rappers what to next le bron james or they want to be their neighborhood gangsta the neighborhood drug deal that's fascinating into so kids they get tense to see in their environment and they have options like evil you selling crack rock or you got to we can jump shot in order to excrete the hood. market you know and.
1:41 am
it's. going to let it all. give me hope for the. so what's up man for today. this is some of the best of these all she. feels she. let me also so like you shall before. i feel some of these. limits tell you what you guys cannot be a real bad people. all of the reasons we're because there is division you know in the principle behind dividing that's why member we're united states of america not divided states. this whole area was black so what happened was they put dead highway didn't care to put the highway right down the middle right smack down the middle. of this most
1:42 am
prosperous inner city community jackson ward which actually was named black wall street this was prosperous and then they divided it right here and as we crossed over into this section you want to see the transition. government housing became high crime drugs everything in addition to the highway as i mentioned some of the black owned businesses left their businesses to go to other areas this area right here and then became the ghetto this is one of the high crime areas right now as we see the difference here books ace government housing. you know businesses. welfare food stamps you get hooked you get hooked and basically you just barely get along and you're living off of the government see blacks did better when we didn't get help. we were getting help we did better
1:43 am
because we had to we're forced to do for ourselves where you start giving people help and paying them then this what happens these people are used to a check which is only enough for them to live in this kind of condition who wants to open up a business in a high crime area. because then you get rubbed. me . all my dough for sixty novels i'm not going to do you know. just foreign. fighters. boarding a philippine naval ship. i
1:44 am
. i'm. not call me ned. ninety dollars. just aren't abdulla still don't know what's waiting for them. because it will. be new and i do not usually. just. have to get out of here man i'm no money. i do think the numbers mean something they've mattered us a little one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime families did . eighty five percent of global wealth you long to be old the rich eat food six percent world market thirty percent some with four hundred to five hundred three
1:45 am
per second per second and fifth when rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers over. the only number you need to remember in one one business showed you know board the mid one and only boom but. there's a low low number of opportunities here in western pennsylvania as well as so not only did our industries alone but a lot of our people moved as well which forced even more businesses to basic strongly difficult to run a business in a place like home or just because. one there's not a
1:46 am
a lot of people there and then too the people there don't have the necessary means to take advantage of extra things one of the unique businesses that has been able to been a steadfast place to look to and home the way i think they're you know at least fifteen years old and mr mr bundy has been there you know making. making those donuts for for kids to make sure that they have food before they were just cool for for generations upon generations so even in those situations where if mom and dad couldn't take care of kids knew that they could go to the bakery and grab a donut or grab something to make sure that they had so food in order to get through today so. i don't know how they did it but they found a way to be a constant presence in that neighborhood despite what has gone.
1:47 am
good or bad you know i am very compliant with homeward. from. earlier i don't see any new bridge coming in right now. big companies of three. maybe a meager quarter here were never company called who are gone forward in our careers and. i thought long they'd been out of here. you know. that's just it's all for in a round the guns and murders did take place right south avenue is one of the busiest roads in western pennsylvania as one of the longest and strangest roads so people arrive from the a fluent neighborhoods outside of western pennsylvania and they ride through through traffic every single day to go to work which is crazy if you go on a news. say you know somebody got murdered in the home so it's not
1:48 am
a place that you want to pull over and stop and maybe grab a donna and coffee rather than the same traffic. we've got here is the most number one. most one of the capital murder. something's not. talking about your food and how it impacts because a lot of us thought it was. thought it was thought it was sixteen out of gas or know how it all enough to sell a food amount so make a living. while the slaves got what will face i was so when i. was found that's. hostile so the. cats i have i want to cut their.
1:49 am
attics only times for any value i do is like control the habits when we behave but our city you know what we used to get out of poor so we want to sell goods is what . you got. you know we know. we had a bottom you have to climb all the way to how. to make a name for yourself primary right now with capital that is comparing it to like a war zone actually if you're shy of baltimore if you need to go to saudi arabia. it's probably crazy yeah like. whole crowd a lot more people risking. my senior year i found that i was having a baby by a woman that i wasn't going to marry so i dropped out of school was living out of my parents' house was broke and started dabbling in some things that i didn't need to dabble. and put myself in
1:50 am
a situation to almost be murdered in two thousand and eleven as a result of that experience that's when i made a decision to start doing what i do what i did it was a basketball team start to focus more in on my basketball career. in basketball it's a competition with yourself. and. you have the concrete yourself. it's a game where you have to learn to share and play with your teammates and more importantly compete against the other team as well as the environment. when people think about the ball they don't look at it in that aspect where you break it down because it's a personal battle it's about over amongst your team and other people. it's about almost you and the environment. it's a game of skill it's a game of aggression. and physicality where you're forced to criminal you're supposed to shoot. to force and do
1:51 am
a lot of things that people take for granted in every day movement it's. just that that passion that i've been able to maintain from much alpha and carry over into my adulthood is what is allowed to be so much different than everybody else and create an opportunity where people say we could hope to work to find other children in the father's neighborhoods primarily in home where i started the pittsburgh bullets to teach them how to harness that energy and maintain that energy into their adulthood so then they can continue like i said to do some of the things that i've done if not hopefully take it further and further and further down the.
1:52 am
so will be sorry i was a war. losing too many people every day every day i don't want to stick my life in philly put up are you to somebody and that's another fatherless show i said no the one who will be meaning come home us a mother who got a time to see what mothers have to very deeply hurt you and that's just the thing isn't as is this plane is awful put it i don't want to see people getting children miss where you grieve go i don't need to see people getting to russia i think you should want to keep your children so that those. primaries based on no drug use. you know people who didn't kill for anything. ninety five percent of the crimes. or least eighty five percent of crimes is drug
1:53 am
related. you know we're a weirdo right now currently where the number one. murder capital in united states we also number one in her way addiction here. and why because we have the port which is right there here and will and the edge of the east coast so a lot of things come through the ports and stuff the way kids get involved with drugs growing up and in a city soon as you step outside your door. being go you're right there. actually some i may add when you step outside your door scuse me do you know what i'm just a wee from scuse me you know that's a don't. mean you know get some coke or scuse me you know got some pills. right now in the community. he is going through
1:54 am
a change because of changes going on in his community because john hopkins in a real estate value is going up so a lot of these residents is not going to be here to do too much longer and they're going to bring in the good food because it's already southwest everything is about spacing right now everything so you've got well you've got wealthy people living next to lake poor people. so eventually to poor people it's going to get it's going to it's not going to be around anymore. they're moving a poor people out to the county out this way so homeowners. they give them vultures in voters' meaning give you access to another house and you don't have to pay any money just move right on it put it think about it you may be away from the city. so right now the city is a growing. epidemic of just like well the conflict is is no
1:55 am
inclusion for the people as they are ready. best to call flick the conflict is there's no inclusion everyone does a resident right now. they're not included in no future plans best the conflict. best change and because donald. donald trump is sending you oh basket full of contaminated food it already had to end in the end people do not like so donald trump has really stepped in and a lot of people who really have freedom of choice you don't have a freedom of choice which you know you're eating with the government giving you can usually cause they go get food out of market mail. yet if you own a welfare you want to have the donald trump basket he said. like oh
1:56 am
a basket full of food governments in government yet so you can't there's no more purchase things are changing in the rich want access to the city. in with that comes. to education a lot of things giving s'posed right now. you know. a lot of people go to church. and. you know they give offerings and you know i'm a speaking bedouin you want to live here or i'm just going from my observation but at the same time when they're in the. same people that they were a lot of dispersed. never be there for them financially and it never has.
1:57 am
the fingers together you're going to squeeze your hand in and make sure you figure stays off your boat to go into this position and then be sure to set your hand in properly bring the gun up big keep it i love. all right so the top of it all the old sea level ok forget what you saw in the movie so great if you shoot the way to shoot it in movies you'll never get anything. we came here where did you work before you came here. in many us states capital punishment is still practiced convicted prisoners can spend he is waiting for execution and most of the time the victims' families they are very much in favor of the death penalty there are some people because of what they did given up
1:58 am
the right to live among us somebody even proven innocent years on death row and how many more tolerations is it going to take before we as a society realize that this is not working and we actually do something about it. most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest raid in truth to stand down lose business is just the right questions and demand the right answer . the. question. the maturity to. go in and you may never get out sons of the most of.
