8:38 am
street crips and they're there's a lot of conflict within the gangs and. in between the gangs most of the conflict i would say revolves around money and most of their money is made through dope sales they do have other activities but that's that's the main source of most of their income. and that's what drives a lot of the violence that's out here we have. we're way down in murders historically for this area but we're still i think we're up to 40 for this year and i am not sure but i think this division is only 10 square miles and you had 40 murders and that's that's the lowest amount of murders we've had in decades and it's virtually all gang related there are some that aren't and you have some domestic violence but most of it's getting late in the lot of it's open we're going to go we.

8:42 am
thinking of getting a new phone the ones we got in here shows no problem was he didn't know until he was trapped in this tiny little wired coach you don't need a crate with him the wall just. freaking out into the wall when is freedom anywhere near. reading dogs or caged in the into lane conditions on puppy farm i mean 67 years you know they've been locked up in a cage outside you see no protection from the weather the heat you know the cold air the rain the snow the funder nothing they have no protection. to get what you. get through chaos. across the u.s. cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows and pet stores most of the puppies that are coming from these large scale factory farming kind of operations are being sold in stores even joined
8:43 am
a group businesses are involved like agoa mom center there has been a shocking amount of organized opposition to adverts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial rating for so many most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with jobs don't buy dog. is your media a reflection of reality. in the world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation for community. are you going the right way or are you being led so. direct. what is true what is faith.
8:44 am
8:45 am
in this community there are people who believe that it's ok to to sell marijuana to put food on the table it's ok to sell practical food on my table and it's i got a tail it's really hard when you get into the community and you see how some people live and you see that there are no jobs and you see that i've got kids that have to eat and as a parent. i can't come up with a logical argument to say that if i were in that situation and that's the only option i had that i wouldn't do the same thing and so it's been really important to me to try and build some understanding in the police officers in the realities of the community and that doesn't mean by any. any sense that i condone it or i will let it go on especially since the other reality is that almost all the homicides that we do have are directly wrapped around narcotics and narcotics sales and so
8:46 am
you might have people that will claim it's a victimless crime it's not there are people dying over it several years ago in the early sixty's this community was predominantly white and you had the steel mills and you had a lot of economic well and then the riots came out a lot of those folks and a lot of those businesses left the community one big. because of fear too because of the folks within the community destroyed it themselves and it was hard to get economic growth and development back into this community because of the fear and i feel like south los angeles has just been left and pushed to the side since the 1965 riots and that i don't believe there's been enough time in dedication and passion income compassion and fight for equality to build this community we need to get past the riots kind of a weird thing to say because that happened a long time ago it's been 20 years since the last one but the riots the 65 riots of
8:47 am
92 riots left a huge scar in this community they left a scar in this community that has caused the business not to be able to come back. until we can bring business back to this community it can thrive there isn't a sit down restaurant in watts there isn't a movie theater in watts we do not have a y.m.c.a. or a boys and girls club or a large community center where a child can go after school to receive tutoring in sports and an afterschool program on a larger scale and every other store on any given street in watts is either a liquor store or a funeral home or in a church. you
8:48 am
need to live my life. you know. that i was going to. have one good look at me and you're like oh you don't let. i. know that here you medalling you want to lie in state hustling you know saying stay hustlin real before fell and broke his arse really all around no day and one day more and i'm not going to you just like i'm not going to change it i'll believe you and now say i'll be here with nobody to tell you i'm even by being you you'll be in a failing army you know santa feel like you can't make it you know saying there's a way you can make it all me programs you would get into how many you can get you a job or a legitimate job homie and at the worry about all that man but the the people got to help me get

8:50 am
time by the sound of love me for any of them my life time but the passing of my brother. would give me the most. was that i was a big toll on the passing of my brother but i deal with him every day listening to read. you know the last plaintiff before you out of a so it had heard me but. not to the extent that i lost my brother. i mean and then a few years 'd later i lose my sister my sister geeky oh. so i still haven't recovered from all that like the down the saddest feel taken oh you know toll on me to where i haven't found a way to cope yes. i am. i am.
8:51 am
i and. there's been a great number of shooting incidents which have occurred right outside. right outside between the church and a liquor store as a matter of fact a few years ago i was told by the sheriff's department there they're a little more shooting incidents that have occurred right outside our church than anywhere else in south l.a. . and try to be open to all different types of people because we're in an area where people are constantly hurting and costly in need so we have to look beyond ourself and the boards helping people we have so many people that don't have a father so i can serve as our role model and that image and to give a positive light on many people who haven't seen productive african-american males
8:52 am
. very. good you know. back and we. only. my older brother was a gang member and my young brother was a gang member so i understand what happens where gangs and often times when people are trying to find him so they'll search the search and then they'll find again. some of the gangs they give them a sense of worth they feel important they feel like they are someone. however we try to do is really to let them know you don't need a game to have
8:53 am
a sense of self-worth. with the lord. that you can have a different sense of self-worth and you don't have to depend on anyone and besides that you can get involved in something that's on. gritty you can be more. good news mason we started like this we will look up in the sky and surveying l.a. we saw a lot of helicopters in the sky we knew something was going on so we want to track that down and. it's something going now but guess what it's no yellow tape but we do it. we put it down as we go do we all find out what happens if you fail me. the cameras a very powerful weapon and once you have that camera on the camera doesn't lie on action you know you don't have to walk out the test you know or do any of that stuff your camera is your hour is not going to lie the l.a.p.d.
8:54 am
murdered an unarmed teenager in the imperial courts housing projects thursday afternoon to teenager identified as james davis dislodged his weapon began to run witnesses say police retrieved his weapon and fired a fatal shot into the teenager's back after james davis was shot he was handcuffed and then denied medical attention from a nurse who happen to be on site as he lay dying when i shot to the back and. this was on the same who actually lives in imperial forces she was visiting there will be able to start before the security. issues when they're going. to get. married it. would upset me. to get me to try to do this right you are letting me know what i. just heard trying to try my c.p.r. certified and they still refuse all the time. i could've been down here to see her and try to the police i shot somebody in broad daylight in front of everybody stand
8:55 am
over him while he died i covered that story and then just another sad story. this body here is 115th street one of the busiest rock cocaine spots by far and ones but i would say even in the country. my experience nobody does more on cocaine than the bombing on the bloods and i mean the money is huge it's probably $30.00 to $50000.00 a beacon in sales just in this developed would be biased. their rival gang raping you crips and the same problem they do make money in sales narcotics and the motivation to stay within the gang is abuse alive in haiti is an ongoing feud between the great tree crips and the bonnie hunt of bloods we've had 4 murders in the last week and i think into the murders were 847 so when they go out on what
8:56 am
they call a mission they were murdered a very high powered rifles. and usually when you see a group like that hanging out they were going to spot. just places what you call the mothership. the bloods. originated here if you're going to western movies they had to bounty hunters. and during that time they used to. you know watch the western movies and always talk about the bonnie hunt and that's how we was created we took that same piece. star color now so. it was a murder that took place on the bond of blood he was stabbed to death outside the area you could see right here is his vigil they love to honor their dead. when there's a murder between 2 powerful gangs a few results from the one incident if he kills a bonding honor then the bombing has get together and they need to retaliate and the more violent gang is the more respect it has the more violent gang it is the
8:57 am
more successful they are the more violent the gang is the more the community feels that they are intimidated and they can't do anything about it and that's how they run the streets. this is kaiser report coming to you from an undisclosed bunker in the middle of nowhere get ready for the apocalypse and the zombie infestation and ask how does saul time together. in the special get some of. the men of the. book just with. you thought the whole doping can russia think was over for get it. through a couple of. russian eligibility for the international competition says that state this includes events like the tokyo olympics and the
