3:46 pm
moved up into the big time they may. pale bandits. around these are the surveillance photos we got it was probably the. rest of. this community and there are people who believe that it's ok to sell marijuana to put food on the table it's ok to sell practical food on my table and it's when i get 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
3:47 pm
a logical argument to say that if i were in that situation and that's the only option i had that i would 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. in the 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 world and then the riots came a lot of those folks in a lot of those businesses left the community one because of fear too because of the folks within the community destroyed it themselves and it was hard to get economic
3:48 pm
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 the 92 riots left a huge scar in this community they left a scar on 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 boys and girls club or a large community center where

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 in need so we have to look beyond ourself in 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 . we. go. back and we see. that we think you know the beautiful.
3:54 pm
my older brother was a gang member and my young brother was a gang member so i understand what happens where gangs and oftentimes when people are trying to find themself they'll search and search and then they'll find a gang and some of the gangs they give them a sense of worth they feel them for they feel like they are someone. however well we try to is. really to let them know you'll meet again you have a sense of self-worth. with the lord. they 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 this on a gritty you can be more. good news mason we started like this we will look up in a sky and starving l.a.
3:55 pm
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 it's no yellow tape but we do it. we put it down flop people as we go do we will find out what happens if you fail me. the cameras are very powerful weapon and once you have that camera on the camera doesn't lie on actions you know you have to walk out the pistons you know when to any of that stuff your camera is your house is not going to live 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 a nurse was on the same who actually lives in imperial forces she was visiting

3:57 pm
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 could be biased. their rival gang prevention creeps in the same problem they do make money in sales a narcotic in the motivation to stay within the gang is nice alive in haiti it's an ongoing feud between the great street 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 they call a mission or a murder they bring 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 bounty hunters and
3:58 pm
that's how we create we took that same piece. start calling ourselves to bonnie hunt and it was a murder that took place in 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 time or the bombing i'm going to 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 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. in the united states presidential candidates debate the future of the u.s. and the world. max kaiser and stacy herbert dig into the burning questions of this
