male populated protest was pretty common among day on the outside it was the images of the gun rights advocates walking the marble halls of kentucky's capitol building holding a kaizen wearing ski masks that has left many a raised eyebrow david hogue the stillman douglass high school shooting survivor and gun control advocate he tweeted out this might be one of the most extreme forms of white privilege i've ever seen. and you know even as someone like me who supports the 2nd amendment i can't say the david is wrong in his observations so today my friends let's dissect the core cassady of us society when it comes to the 2nd amendment as we start watching the hawks. was going out on a city the streets. clear so you like see see the prices you always state i'll see you well so i see great city displays systemic deception is to

late show which i will so please. welcome our own watching the entire robot joining me today to discuss this and the other big news of the day is political analyst and democratic strategist for cross and the president of the eagle forum educator former education and legal defense fund ed martin whoa man i'm talking it was blown my mind this week it i'm sorry i mean look it's hard to see images of these protesters walking through the hallways of this capitol building old ars of a case which they have a right to own but where the mass of looking like terror i mean you can't i mean they look like crazy soldiers with guns and arms and schemas frightening. i don't think other groups of them could get away with that i don't think even if it was maybe this is me but i don't think a group of black folks black citizens could be dressed like that even you know if

they were protesting for the 2nd amendment could walk those halls or be allowed in that building i don't think you'd see that if there's a latino groups i mean my wrong i absolutely agree with you i think that you know the racial balance of this country obviously drawn their lines when it comes to who with the as an american fit a thing who is worthy of owning a gun and who is not and who thing as a threat at the end of the day if you're talking about black or brown people when there is a gun present or there is a good near them they are automatically considered a threat and even you know we're talking about police brutality the part. thing that officers call out is that they felt like there was a threat or they thought that there may have been a gun even in issues where instances where there was absolutely no weapon present at all i think that this was a very scary scene 1st and foremost because it was in the nation's capital in a capital of a city but also within within the confines of an actual government building at the end of the day when we're thinking about those areas we think about them as protection we don't necessarily think about them as having every day for the defense arm like this which looks like militant groups well look i'm actually for banning masks in public i mean i think that when they were masks they should be

banned i think if you're not willing to stand up and have your face exposed and it's outrageous i don't know where you guys are coming i was there attested you have to be white to go i know i mean you're saying that you're saying you're saying that i don't know kentucky i didn't look at all the pictures but i'm reminded of charlottesville where people said in charlottesville it was a gathering of white supremacist it wasn't there was lots of people on the side of the white supremacy i'm not trying to sort of pure gold i'm sure that's what that's what the white privilege is is that is the trick box we're down again i think the american people right now are reacting and that's why i think your show is so important to the fact that we saw the f.b.i. be unfair to all americans used to be they were just unfair to martin luther king jr and his family there unfair to all americans we have a problem with the deep state we have a problem with walt law enforcement so when you say you're going to limit my 2nd amendment right none of those people were talked about were arrested for misconduct no no no they weren't in richmond so let's go to chicago and see where they're going so if there was any group of those people are glad it was nobody ever got in

through the capitol doors had folks of a different color that's not right out of that well that's your library or not you know i don't really i don't know if i'm. going to say i dare you because i am going to actually i don't because i don't want to see anybody getting forgotten who got into the mess that we're going to the next thing all right we are here. by only made it yes monday february 3rd 2020 is the day we've all been waiting for because i'm. monday the iowans get to vote yes the iowa caucus is that hand this is the starting line that we've all been waiting for since the very 1st circus of the democratic presidential primary debate you remember the one witness way long time ago june 2008 you see the iowa caucus get to be the ones who decide which democratic primary candidate gets to take that 1st big step on the road to being named the democratic presidential nominee are 2 your america's natasha sweet brings us the lowdown on how bernie joe war and the rest spent their final weekend before

i was big voting details take a look. well the democrats are getting ready to reload their insults against president trump but there were a few campaign fails on the trail this past weekend but along with the good there was also a bit of success for some of the democratic candidates take a look at this here you can see former vice president joe biden kissing his granddaughter on the lips this was in front of a crowd at a campaign event at clark university in iowa she is reportedly the daughter of biden's son hunter 77 year old has been criticized repeatedly for inappropriate touching something that his supporters say is harmless in des moines iowa over the weekend and biden focused much of his speech attacking the president as we can turn 4 years of donald trump into an aberration historical aberration but 8 years you'll change the country in a way we can tolerate we need you we need you we need you and if you thought this moment of michael bloomberg trying to pet it dog was awkward his back and forth with president trump was also one for the books this week and the president tweeted

that quote many mike is negotiating to stand on boxes or lift during the debates a reporter tweeted that he asked bloomberg about this and his response was that he stands twice as tall on the stage that matters i stand before you today as the granddaughter of an iron ore mine or as the daughter of a teacher in a newspaper man as the 1st woman elected to the u.s. senate from the state of minnesota and a candidate for president of the united states. senator amy clover char was playing that permitted western roots during a campaign stop in cedar rapids on the eve of the iowa caucuses some believe that biden wins the nomination that clover char has a chance and becoming his running mates but before the polls are out ad revenue reveals all candidates are throwing more than $70000000.00 into iowa now the president's tweet about many mike wasn't the only one receiving buzz online and president trump also made a comment about the democratic national committee not treating bernie fairly democratic campaign aide also opened up about the issue saying that bernie is

simply not playing by the rules in los angeles and sweets r t. goodness gracious so today is the day i just want to throw to you guys how do we feel you know how much of a an impact will the winner of i will be i was a bigger impact i was always been a major impact especially since 2000 with democratic voters specifically it signals who's going to be able to make that fund raising haul further down the line it signals who now should receive the amount of attention from voters i was has pretty much decided in many cases the role of the next few primaries it helps to shape the course of the field a few months ago we thought that judge was in 100 percent and i what everybody had him break a good number one nobody saw bernie even polling in the top 3 and today we're seeing something entirely different we've seen warren consistently dip in terms of her race but we've also seen clothes which are actually get some attention so i think that i was shaping up to be a very very interesting ways of the outsider looking in

a more to say well 1st of all when i was on the r. and c. for a couple years i watched the system is really rigged for money money and consultants so when you see that big money that's one person but look it's bernie's night i can almost guarantee it and that happened because on october 19th a o c endorsed bernie and she and her after us went behind him tonight is the beginning of a civil war in the democrat party and the fact that no one is saying you know we just did a segment on guns and you said kentucky's you know got only white people protesting think about what's going to happen you've got white men at the top of this ticket dominate there's not an african-american in the mix there's not a hispanic in the mix they're all gone and the party thinks as they take on the civil war that they're going to survive it's tonight is going to be extraordinary to see but the next 3 months are going to be wild in the democrat party but i was going to clear the field look it's going to end up being 4 or 5 left after tonight you know well you guys were a little bit of time left in this segment i don't want to ask you to predict who will win because of your lips and worse than anyone can be one of these things i'll go for that only but nobody's going to win we're going to you know you know that's

why the des moines poll was canceled that's why chris matthews is hitting on bernie this morning on morning joe they can't stand that this happened bernie is going to win i think blue. the judge is going to come in stronger but by the 2nd and after that doesn't matter really getting burned by the british judge and i think that that's i think that's pretty solid only makes here that is a little bit strange a thing bernie eclipse to be number one right now and i well i don't think anything else changes in that deal and i'm going forward it's going to be an interesting race because if it starts off with bernie on that are for it then you've got new hampshire which is probably going to win the new government data which burning also has a pretty good shot of winning the pressure tonight will be whether elizabeth warren does so poorly that she pulls out tomorrow i mean because she's going on she's going to this is going to do so poorly i say it's fallen off the it's really just absolute when she attacked bernie with that fight that really turned off the elizabeth warren comes in anything lower than 3rd i think that this is going to signal something very detrimental to our campaign while i want to say thank you both for coming on again look see we can all argue about backyard about if you're going to get on your series and that is that i'm going to larn thank you so much mark mr cross always a pleasure thank you so much as we go to break called watchers don't forget to let

the floor and you can move the feet all found is worthless woody allen called the evil adults of the day. but i think is this is the fans that is something. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics small business i'm show business i'll see you then. since the 1st day of 2002012 incarcerated people have died and a host of disturbing social media videos featuring inhuman conditions have surfaced from behind the walls 'd of the mississippi state prison system and at the center

is the notorious apartment. watching the hawks social media producer and journalist springer recently traveled out of the state of mississippi and brought about this brought back this report on the pain of the penitentiary and the protests against it. when you're inside it's totally different from outside people watched movies and they have to take on what prison is like but they don't know. what it is to be inside we have to take you inside. to a whole lot of things but we do hear each other but. we're not used to this.

in an abnormal situation because you have to make do so you try to figure. but we have to. take to washington all clothes on your hands there's just no question. the washing machines that they have you put your clothes in a bag. well you take a lot of dreams and you turn them in you don't know which. you might or might. not get it all. the more in the prison which is coming through the wall you bring it to be in the field there. are people. from. all even and the unit $29.00 is said to be the newest the most modern unit is still crumbling the infrastructure is crumbling and it's visible to anybody who even

walks into the unit normally when you go to a visit on unit $29.00 it's going to be hotter it's going to be cold either it's going to be extremely cold outside or is going to be extremely hot inside normally in temperatures in excess of 100 degrees there's no aircon there's no air conditioning. there's no aggregation for this in a ventilated area. and in the actual pods in the sales that whole guys they have no circulation at all so what you normally would seeing is that you see short lists and they're laying on the coal for because units when that is in made out of center bods cinder blocks they hold in either cool air and they hold the heat so during the summer months they're holding in all the cool air so the gas just lay bare just like bare chested on the floor is not uncommon to see 5 or 6 guys just laid out and in a sale on the floor vironment is visible in the visiting area rats roaches

spiders. and i'm not talking little fires spiders mosquitoes the size of birds waltz any instinct that you want to have in the corners of the facility and these are areas where the public are allowed. i mean there's nothing new about what's happening in march and i would say. in very recent history i think 2 summers ago in august there was basically every other day most of them parchin and in a little bit further back history if we look at the 1970 s. there's this successful suit that they. are sort of people win against the state that leads to the end of the trustee system and that was around cruel and unusual punishment so as long as the prison has existed there have been these sort of cruel inhuman conditions and what we're going to continue to see and have seen in the past is these episodic. periods where the state violence is sort of most apparent

to us but for people who are incarcerated that state violence every day i would never drink the water or i don't like to wash my hands in the bathrooms because when you turned water on it's literally the color of my water fountains when they were the same way they were they come on the water fountains scared to drink the guards will tell you not to drink guards give me about water because i didn't have any they went to water but my clients weren't that water out of the water barriers between 2 ways it's either to chlorinate it or it smells like sewage and so all the pipes leak right so the gas had their socks around the leaky pipes and so if that's not surprising. they know not to drink the water if the socks are why they know chlorine is in the water we can wash our clothes and if you don't drink the water you're going to drink it at that time if there is a boil water notice in the area the gas will get by the water there is still forced to drink that water they take their medication what water that smells like they

take medication in water that visibly if you put it in a cup and they have a gas will take it that they let the water sit and they let all the. particles go to the bottom and then they just drink the water. conditions at parchin and have been this way for. behind me is the mississippi state penitentiary known locally as parchment prison where an astounding 9 individuals have died in the past month alone since the start of the new year reports of everything from fights and fires and suicides to insufficient food and water supplies power outages and individuals sleeping on the floors have been reported and a mountain of human rights abuses are allegedly going on behind these walls we traveled here today to speak with locals activists politicians celebrities and everyone in between and to try and figure out why these things are happening here parchment and what can be done to fix the problem in order to understand the

current crisis inside parchment you have to go way back in history and understand the prison's roots the former governor of mississippi an open life supreme mrs james k. vardaman was instrumental in creating the mississippi state prison he believed that the money made from convict leasing and chain gang should go to the state instead of private entities and those of the mississippi state penitentiary was born the prison itself is a reform so parchment prison comes about at the turn of the last century as a as a way to sort of. undo what some people are see as the problems of the comically system and in particular. the governor at the time james vardaman who is an unapologetic white supremacist actually runs on a campaign of white supremacy. believed that the problem with comic leasing was not really the sort of. human rights abuse that it was but rather that he saw it as sort of lining the pockets of the plantation class so he was

a white supremacist populist and believe that this sort of state run plantation style prison would instead be a way of sort of socializing african-americans to their place which he saw as manual labor the reform that led to the establishment of parchment was also weights a premises and it's intent so as i mentioned james james martin is the person who established. parchment and he used to actually incarcerated people on the grounds of parchment with bloodhounds for sport so if you think about that kind of context in which this place is born there's really no separating white supremacy. of the time line the so there were about 4 or 5 it's within 3 or 4 days between december 29th and jane where 2nd either on january 2nd in the o c issued

a statement stating that everything was under control however on january 3rd 2 more people died as a result of incidents that occurred with. one of the indio see it was still that these throughout the state we did a timeline breakdown of everything that was occurring once we did that time last week we deployed the article on twitter facebook all of our platforms and certainly it began to go really viral we posted a video image. that was sent to us of several being being housed in a. in unit 32 of parchment unit 32 apartment has been condemned and closed down since 2009 says 2000 for over 10 years and that was closed down with a.c.l.u. into the agreement with the city state prison for parchment to close it down the reason it was closed down was because it was a hill holding an essential it was

a it was a place where where 6 of the people that were being housed there it was the different facility it was the place where where people who were very sick was also being housed but it was also a place that was a violent place to say the least essentially the a.c.l.u. decided that this facility should no longer be open so for 10 years this this place had been closed down in this was the place that. these these incarcerated people were moved to this was still a t. now is flooded it has black mold in it they have no mattresses it basically has not been maintained in 10 years it was concealed can be able to in years ago but we have video surfaces of these men inside of this facility and we had already told the story that no other new site was telling with regard to those men being in unit 32 nobody else had disclosed because they didn't have the inside information once

we got it we shared it and we shared their video on the video went viral on twitter it was shared by. many hip hop artists and entertainers on twitter in instagram can people like t.i. and david banner and big create a thing even so a lot of rappers have really been vocal about it parchment is located at least 2 hours away from many major cities making it difficult for lawyers and their members and having kids to visit in recent months incarcerated people have used contraband cell phones to share videos and photos of their conditions on social media. and in the news a voice transparency in a deadly situation. one of the prison officials allege that bruising gangs are to blame for the mounting drives the merged many are pushing against that narrative stating that the inhuman conditions are driving people beyond sanity i think now all of that. technology that now we're going to have people now they're going to be

able to see inside and i think that's what's threatening to. the people that are supposed to be in charge of the prisons now at this point i think this is was threatening to warm because you can't you get so many people and so much of that is around so much contraband they were going there you can't you can't really control or find out who were to get this from who and so it's going to continue to leak we're going to change them no more things that continue to slip because people are getting old but now people are also coming up get the main way their prisons have been able to skirt any type of regulation authority around issues involving prisoners in litigation pretty much came out of the night and 5 in congress passed the prison litigation reform act and what that was is that at that time congress was seeing in prisons were seeing a large number of prisoners filing suits about the conditions that they lived in and it was causing a backlog and a backlog. in the system and so congress wanted

a way to limit the rights of prisoners to bring federal lawsuits about the conditions that they were being to. and so what the p.l.r. a does is that it basically calls for prisoners to allow their captors high and knowingness to fix issues that are conditions based so basically which you have to do is that you have to say you have to say to the people who are holding you in these conditions hey. this widest smells like this water tasted like clearly and then you have to give those people are a reasonable amount of time to address the issue before you can move on to even falla lawsuit against a president. who absolutely powerful stuff you're going to want to definitely check out the 2nd half of that report by watching the hawks social media doesn't spring we're about to we're that later this week so thank you all for coming and watching

the show today that's all we got for you that is our show remember everyone in this world we are told not told that we are loved and love so i tell you wall i love you i rolled for a keep watching all those hawks out there that were great day and night to. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person or those with.
