the story. for some american be still the land of opportunity for running out of options going into trauma is a recurring theme in the area of the us well expectancy in los angeles county missouri and mine. while. i try. to. call hollywood often looks to south central for inspiration those that live must go.

'd sets are made. like 3 generations. you got the old gee you got the homie you got the little harm you know it's there. for us to like there's a little homie right here on me. and i'm homie and then you got the old z. that's order me. you know to me. so. it's like

a 3 generation to hang on to me as mater. right now we're in an imperial course housing projects you know and so the p.j. cripps on the east side of. you know me is based in watts just cool going to the name. that any given said anything can happen. you know in my me are laughing again right now for a game. in 5 minutes later and i'm going to. some people from. the gang of. some people you know really don't have family that i can count on and want to over so again give them that support you know stability to make me feel like you know they got. down on.

me you join me again it's like. everybody's all know that's where i come from so it's like if i hang with somebody hurt and norms and i know what a front we've got it will get there you know saying this will make people join again a family that you can relate to you know people as you can trust you know what i mean but you have to earn everything and again. i get in a couple of dallas whom i hate them all and come back but it's very beginning dollars maine and saying i'm watching your back burner oh you make sure nobody around me you know nobody come over there we don't know trying to hurt nobody over here you know as i would go every day over here in this area but you know everybody so we'll no you don't come away simple as that. typical day for me it's a story. no amount of check

a few traps. your food places. i'm sure everything is everything. you. learned a long. time . and. every day you'll never know what you'll get up to you can wake up and say you going to check in school but end up shooting somebody so every day is a different day and every day as a struggle for a lot of people that don't have it so we try to get it by any means necessary.

this place is so if you go. away. in there you can. crack cocaine the deal. one of the number one. you got. close to 1st place is crystal meth. you know that's. taking away a lot of people right about. courts jordan downs nickerson gardens along gardens. the largest ones over going to be jordan downs nickerson and imperial courts basically there's a different gang and each one of them nickerson gardens has bounty hunter. blood's

that's a that's a really large couple 1000 numbers i'm sure and imperial they've got some some pretty good names they've got i think funny cide till side i'm not sure where all these names come from the great street which is in jordan downs you're going to have things like pita roll and different games are in different subsets of the same game they're all 3 street crips and there 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've 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 you have some domestic violence but most of it's gang related and a lot of it's doper than we're going to go eat. a lot of boys an average up to an hour and out of the day every day. as an average corner or want to avoid a really got it together you can you know make a living more than a. regular money back. so do. told me if i get a good thing every day take resume i get paid every day every day i do a good count for you barry. annis

in the large amount of. you have to be a large amount of anything is money to be made you can make money off of marijuana crack crystal any warning would you if you got a large amount that's when you make enough money. they say. they don't have a. right . to move up the to you he's going. to know supply him making those dollars you know him saying. you know how you get him and you got to get it or you know i'm saying it's a lot of people we don't know mom and dad so you know he has had a screeching look for told the streets and they say you got it you know do your

thing and then get on from there you know looking back. you know it was fun to be home to. be like here. and get. enough to know right. off you just feel me it's one. we game and we represent this project live we always do it at but at the same thomasville someone else out there bigger than lift so i'm not i never stop playing now this model that i lead as pays to dev as us want to see some beer for all of us to grow to succeed off got people that care and love to wait for the shot. we. want to.

every day when they try to give me what i did a good. time to stop. complaining to. convey was that it was day one. as the election cycle rages on the media highlights or even invents what they deem

to be important even radical what they don't tell you is how the political center is collapsing and why today's campaign is what voters think about the status quo. in 2040 you know bloody revolution to the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it your style or here i mean your list put video in the new bill is that i mean you pulling it out of the former ukrainian president recalls the events of 2014. of those who took part in this to do over $5000000000.00 to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. the holder doctrine. eric holder former attorney general under obama this is the

idea that banks are systemically important they can't be prosecuted because this would be a danger to the society as a whole what's remarkable is that this idea has bled over into other industries so now boeing has a major scandal on its hands and it's claiming that it's just a michael important in the law doesn't apply to us other agricultural companies are saying now we're systemically important we're above the law now that is leading to beyond a kleptocracy this becoming i think it's a stock or c. is the right word it's ruled by the least qualified are now in charge of running the economy and the results are obviously catastrophic.

moved up to the big time they mailed me more wrong. and it's. only through the surveillance photos that we got it was. 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 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 and dedication and passion income compassion and the 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 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 afterschool program on a larger scale and every other store on any given street in winds is either

a liquor store or a funeral home or in a church. meet with you might. you know. that was very. good remains and well you know look at me they're like oh he's down below. you know if you really know that here you medalling can see if you want to lie in state hustling you know saying stay hustlin real before felon bro was i was really horny no day and one day and i'm not going to you just like i'm not going to change

when i did 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 good the people got to help me get a job they got right now i've been looking for 5 months bro. 5 months i'm tired i'm ready to give up so you've been. access to good growth. out here on the streets you get hanging in life or you know a sword rifle or that day for less than a $1000.00. here you know do. you keep this honest announcement not hard but to a man and i've had to go where you work you know so because you know. you know gave

me a damn do you know got to be college right my route you know no hammer no right. to going to move that's all that you can't do try to play some game go where you don't see the street oh i'm going to stay right here we call this out of not really going south. it is really going to be a good look at it go they just got to. the cliff. i love me for any of them my life time but the passing of my brother. would be the most. as they never took a big toll on the passing of my brother but i deal with him every day leaving the show that relieved. you know the last plaintiff before you were of a so it had heard me but. not to the extent that i lost my brother. i mean and then a few years later i lose my sister my sister get killed. so i still

have to recover from all that lay down a status feel taken over you know told on me to where i haven't found a way to cope yet. i am. i am. i and. there's been a great number of shooting incidents which have occurred right outside. right outside between a church and a liquor store as a matter of fact a few years ago i was told by the sheriff's department there there were 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 who are constantly hurting and costly and eat so we have to look beyond ourself in the towards 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 . doing all over the. 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 them so they'll search and search and then they'll find again and 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 you have 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 a. 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 more is something going now my guess what is no yellow tape but.

we'll 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 when to any of your camera is your hour is not going to lie the l.a.p.d. murdered an unarmed teenager in the imperial courts housing projects thursday afternoon the 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 to secure the. fishery they're going. to get. me to cry with me. to get me to try to just

try to let him know. that i was very much just trying to try my c.p.r. certified and they still refuse all this time. i could have been down here to be very interesting the police are shot somebody in broad daylight in front of everybody stand 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. than the bombing on the bloods and i mean the money is huge it's probably 325-0000 we can in sales just in this develop would be biased. their rival gang raping you

crips and the same problem they do make money and seals and narcotics and the motivation to stay within the gangs is these alive in haiti is an ongoing feud between the great tree crips and the bonny kind 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 they call a mission a room or 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. bloods. originated here if you're going to western movies they had to bounty hunters. and during that time they used to. you know why should a western movies unmeasured always talk about the bounty hunters and that's how we was created we took that same piece. start calling ourselves the bounty hunters it was a murder that took place in the montana blood he was stabbed to death outside the

area you could see right here is a vigil they love to honor their dead. when there's a murder between 2 powerful gangs a few good 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 again is the more respect it has the more violent gang it is the 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. as the election cycle rages on the media highlights or even invents what they deem to be important even radical what they don't tell you is how the political center is collapsing in today's campaign is what voters think about the status quo.

in 24 you know bloody revolution to. the demonstrations going to be. peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it just the lawyer i mean your list put video at 3 in the new bill is that i mean you split needle the former ukrainian president recalls the events of 2014.

those who took the boat invested over $5000000000.00 to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. we know in psychology that the more people are told that they can't or shouldn't do something whether it's sexual or otherwise the more it makes them want to do it so trying new things violating taboos are some of the most common and pervasive elements in our sexual fantasies.

i. want to keep a show on the palestinian president railed against the troubled ministrations middle east peace plan during an address at the u.n. security council. as well because somehow we confuse a dramatic increase in extremis violence the mahdi and president reveals his ip ministration is holding talks with kenya is a must meet as in the hope of and take the bloodshed it comes off to france said don't be sending additional troops to west africa to shore up that boat trying to tear appreciation. on the philippines says it's tom an 18 a decades old miniature agreement with the u.s. the midwatch beneath.
