9:39 am
would say revolves around money and most of that 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 you have some domestic violence but most of it's gang related and a lot of it's dope with we're going to go we. want to boys you know average up to a 1000 out of the day every day. as an average

9:43 am
the outbreak in the spread of the corona virus has become a black swan event for the global economy is no longer whether the u.s. and other economies will slip into recession the question now is how deep and how long the recession will last it's going to get worse before it gets better. she manatee is on the edge of the precipice thanks to a continuing destruction of the natural world.
9:44 am
you just seem laid out a lot of bills lots of. losing much of a later period. let them everything you didn't hold up. the bill you. got over the war. or the. only dealing in the muslim world as a rule book you. can stuff it and ship them through that. human activity has brought us to the brink of the world's 6th major extinction of it and the people in this film just come to get it more.
9:45 am
moved up into the big time they mailed me more wrong. bandits. around these are the surveillance photos that we got it was probably the. rest of. 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 when i
9:46 am
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 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
9:47 am
and you had a lot of economic world and then the riots came a lot of those folks and 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 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 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
9:48 am
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 a child can go after school to receive tutoring in sports and an afterschool program on a larger scale and every other store i mean given street in watts is either a liquor store or a funeral home or in a church. when
9:49 am
you might. know. that is going to. have one of them again you're like oh. are you so we're going to hear you let down like you want to lie in your state hustle and. stay hustling. before felon bros i was really home no redemption all day and one day and i'm not going to you just like i'm not going to you know that i'll believe you now say i'll be here with nobody to you i mean even by being you you'll be in a failing on me you know saying i feel like you can't make it you know i'm saying there's a way you can make it all me they got programs for you to get it to how many you can get you a job or a legitimate job homie and not have to worry about all that man but the good the people go. so help me get a job they got right now i've been looking for 5 months bro. coming months 5 months i'm tired i'm ready to give up so you've been hustling. same.
9:50 am
access to good grounds and you know if they're out here on the streets to get hang in life or you know assault rifle or that bag for less than a $1000.00. here you know do what is right it is. you keep dishonest down and not talk about the way men and i had to go here work you know so because you know. they know gave it down to you know got to play the crowd is right my route you know no hammer no i see it going to mean if i saw that it come to try to play some game going where you go out and see the street to put on my door just to stay right here we call this out of not really going satisfy. it is really going to be a good look at it go to a just look i guess i got to put it down town by the cliff. not talk about sound outside i have lost many friends in the my life time but the passing of my brother
9:51 am
that's what hit me the most. is that i was a big toll on the passing of my brother but i deal with him every day listening to other every day and i lost it in a frame before you wrote to me so you know had heard me but. not to the extent that i lost my brother. i mean i mean a few years later my son i lose my sister my sister geek you know. so i still haven't recovered from all that like deep down inside his steel taken over you know toll on me to where i haven't found a way to cope. i am. i and. there's been
9:52 am
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 there were more shooting incident 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 in need so we have to look beyond ourself and look forward 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 male.
9:53 am
you know. back. to. you know the beautiful. 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 be is. really to let them know you don't need a game 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
9:54 am
that you can get involved in something this on a pile into gritty you can be more. good news mason we started like this we will look up in a sky and starving 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 it's no yell and say well yeah this is how we do it though who knows we put down people as we go do we go find out what happened. your boy do it you feel me. the cameras are very powerful weapon and once you have that camera on the camera doesn't lie on actions you know you don't have to walk out down the pistol you know into 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 to teenager identified as james davis dislodged his weapon began to run witnesses say police retrieved his weapon and far the fatal shot to the teenager's
9:55 am
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 there will be able to start performing. to see what they're going. to get that they need it right. yeah. that's right. let him know what i. just heard from c.p.r. 30 still all the time i think they're going to be down here trying to the police are shot somebody in broad daylight in finance. stand over him while he died i covered that story and then just another sad story.
9:56 am
in this block here is 115 street one of the busiest rock cocaine spots by far and ones but i would say even in the country. in my experience nobody does more. than the bombing on the bloods and i mean the money is a huge it's probably $30.00 to $50000.00 and we can in sales just in this develop would be biased. their rival gang raping 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 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 they call a mission or a murder they bring a 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. and originated here if you're
9:57 am
going to western movies they had to bounty hunters. and during that time they used to you know watched a western movies and always talk about the bounty hunters and that's how we create we took that same piece. start calling ourselves to bonnie hunt and it was a murder that took place on the bonnie hunt of 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 results from the one incident. kills upon an honor then 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 most 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.
9:58 am
i don't trust medical authority at all ever and the reason for that is i had this horrible autoimmune disorder growing up and it turns out it was completely alleviated with very drastic dietary measures and i went to a number of doctors to discuss what happened to me and i was basically laughed at like diet has nothing to do with autoimmune disorders so my suggestion to people who have health issues they can't figure out if they're going to see a medical professional and they've been going for 10 years and they're still in the same place they should probably take it upon themselves to start testing things out testing out diet testing out exercise and try and figure out things on their own. thank you because you need to. be gone or she. didn't know what to do with traps
