try reading. give me. protesters has a restaurant to play while a police chief quits as another african-american dies at the hands of police on a night in atlanta in the u.s. the main stories of the week like lives massive protesters in seattle occupy 6 blocks of the city center declaring it's an autonomous zone present from demands rule mordor and threatens to send in the army and is called by the cool drones are frequently seen during the floyd protesting increasing the price a us police this question. hello there the latest developments and

a look back at what's been happening to you over the last 7 days you're watching the weekly here on r.t. international now another black man has died at the hands of police sparking violent unrest in the u.s. city of atlanta the city's police chief resigned after an officer fatally shot the african-american while he was being arrested on saturday night his body camera footage of the incident word of warning though you could find these pictures disturbing. i was there all through there see what kind of drinks did yeah. i'm not sure some c. orders are i think you pretty much the trying to be drivers which as one of our point. of questions were about. i got to start started the stuff i thought.

were late on friday police received a call that a black man had fallen asleep in his car blocking a burger drive thru broke so was breath tested and failed but he then resisted arrest during the struggle he appears to grab an officer's taser and later pointed it while fleeing it was at this moment he was shot and he later died in hospital a lawyer for the family claims so the police did atrociously. he lays there dying. they also stand around one kid something slips him over and then the witnesses tell us that what some can't see on camera but they filmed it they would have picked up the silk face. i wonder why so they're all of you can't know how far away he works when they shot but they appear to be caring more about covering their tracks than provided it that could have saved his life i think to say we want justice but i don't i don't care what even know what that is and i've been doing

this 15 years out of the exists as a more protesters say some fire very restaurant where be able to patient with police happened following the incident as rent is met said the officer in question had been suspended while the city's police chief had quit. while there may be debate as to whether this was an appropriate use of deadly force i firmly believe that there is a clear distinction between what you can do and what you should do. i do not believe that this was a justify use of deadly force and have called for the immediate term a nation of the officer she shields has offered to immediately step aside as police chief so that the city may move forward with urgency in rebuilding the trust so desperately needed throughout our community where it is almost 3 weeks now

since george floyd was killed at the hands of police in minneapolis on cheese day the man whose death sparked a nationwide riots in the u.s. was buried during a small private funeral in his hometown of houston in texas earlier on the same day thousands paid their respects on tuesday around $6000.00 mourners file past his coffin in houston the final stop in a series of memorials held in his own or around $30000.00 to spend on his gold casket with the money taken from a record breaking fundraising campaign that amassed needy 1000000 dollars the fallout from floyd's death has provoked claims politicians are trying to use it to score political points democrats for example criticized by some if an ailing for an 8 minute silence in congress the length of time prosecutors say that floyd was pinned under a white police officers knee before he died. every american should try to stand

in silence for 8 minutes and 46 seconds to acknowledge the pain of george floyd and the pain of racism charge enough to grieve but it's much harder to do it in public it's much harder with the whole world watching your incredible family his old daughter was there i want to sit there is going to change the world. i think her daddy's going to change the world hopefully george is looking down right now and saying this is a great thing that's happening for our country this is a great great day in terms of equality i just want to finish by saying to save the economy we passed several pieces of critical legislation. for the. way. or the democrats have proposed a justice in policing act which would make it easier to prosecute misconduct and also require local police to report data on the use of force officers would also be obliged to undergo bias training and show colds and other dangerous practices would

be prohibited officers would also need to wear body cameras political commentator jeff chiles believes though there is a clear political motivation behind the moves. you know what they say right i mean never let a good crisis go to waste there all definitely be people from both sides who are going to capitalize on what happened in georgia. to bolster their political careers it is an election year so it's hard to tell whether or not the people really pushing for this are really wanting to affect change or if they're posturing for november the true test of whether people really want to affect change will will occur after the election is over if this is still going to be an issue that we're going to be pushing in our in our media and also out of in at a political level as well then it is possible for 'd or positive change to come. at the beginning of the wake black lives matter protesters seize control and

barricaded themselves into 6 blocks of central seattle they are calling the area the capitol hill autonomous zone and their move came after police had retreated from the neighborhood hundreds of demonstrators led by the local council also occupied the city hall. was i was the protesters here inside were calling for the city's met equates and the keys her of not being strict enough implementing reforms while the can demand it would approach demonstrators is the place to be defunded one of their goals is to build a community inside the zone without any need for police some of those who occupy the city hall claimed that the community and not politicians should control decision making well there's own is a self declared commie no police or cars are allowed into the area and reports to suggest that some of those people there are actually armed the city's mayor later

defended the protesters are you saying that they are just patriots online there's been a mixed reaction. in response president from his demanded law and order in seattle he also called out to those he felt responsible saying all this is happened in

a radical left democrat state later trump threatened to descend in the army if the local authorities didn't deal with the situation but the issue of law and order is nothing new and has been on the lips of both republican and democrat presidents for more than 5 decades. law and order haps more familiar as the popular t.v. show you running for 3 decades already law and order. but also exactly what's triggered nationwide protests across the united states. law and order is the 1st responsibility of government don't send people up there that come home and talk tough on law and order and crime and then go back and vote some other way on the ground it was really a symbol of law and order

a policeman on the campus and that was the moment when the ringleaders should have been taken by the scruff of the neck intro and out of the university one. by law and order i mean in order for everyone we've got to reestablish respect for law respect for law and order a concept that's existed since the founding fathers the catchphrase that helped take richard nixon to the white house during mass civil unrest and race riots. around 200 people died back then in clashes martin luther king was assassinated so waving in a new era for society nixon proposed an agenda in which police powers were a bouncer increase in 1968 the green light was given for the use of stop and search and powers have expanded since in new york it became infamous stops dramatically increasing under mayor michael bloomberg in the 2 thousands but it raised a key issue racial prejudice during the peak of the program more than half of the

people stopped were black but the black community made up just over one quarter of new york's population and 1st started at new york philadelphia like california this serving its 1st stop. as new ways to keep order away. entergy just laws became tough since 1928 states have adopted some form of what's known as the 3 strike practice it meant lengthy sentences for repeat offenders even life behind bars the policy came in as the war on drugs peaked which raised further questions of racial targeting at the turn of the century more than half of all inmates serving time for drug offenses in state prisons were black 3 years ago it was still around 30 percent despite only being 13 percent of the population as a whole with both police powers and sentencing increased prison numbers skyrocketed there are more black people than any other racial group behind bars in america

something that has not changed under bill clinton george bush or barack obama for every 100000 people in the u.s. sentences for black people a 5 times higher than whites. so law and order it was a response to rioting like the unrest ravaging the united states from coast to coast in 2020 provoked by police actions that happened in los angeles in $92.00 after the beating of rodney king by the authorities it happened after the 2014 shooting of michael brown in ferguson a year later in baltimore with the death of freddie gray. in the last 5 years on record the number of those fatally shot by the police per 1000000 people is higher among blacks than any other ethnicity and now history is

repeating itself yet another police related death has provoked unrest and again triggered discussion on black rights so as we look back on what's unfolded since nixon and his slogan in the sixty's donald trump has reassured the nation now saying i am your president to have law and order all trumps demands for law and order to come at a time and place in the u.s. becoming increasingly militarized many forces now doing base the kind of hardware previously only say in frontline combat abroad elephant reports. predator drones are a staple of u.s. foreign policy they have been used in afghanistan pakistan bosnia serbia yemen iraq syria somalia and now minneapolis though the protesters didn't see it it was flying over their heads in order to help federal officials gain situation

awareness and go reports indicate it was an armed people are angry and afraid the deployment of drones and offices to surveil protests is a gross abuse of authority and it's particularly issuing when they used against americans who are protesting law enforcement brutality it appears that the war on terror has come home the mine resistant ambush protected vehicles built by the u.s. military to a stand i attacked in iraq have been rolling down american streets as well the 1033 program allows the u.s. military to provide local police departments with weapons local police can order weapons like remade launchers automatic rifles and bayonets as well as body armor robots aircraft watercraft and survey one strong arms these are defense department products deemed to be excessive old or surplus $7400000000.00 worth of defense department property has been provided to over $8000.00 different law enforcement

agencies by the 1033 program ex new york city mayor michael bloomberg once referred to the new york city police department saying i have my own army and the n.y.p.d. the 7th largest army in the world very well it's lots of military equipment the n.y.p.d. certainly does seem like an army of iraq obama rolled back the program after the ferguson protests and national outrage about the militarization of police. c back. however trump has route 5 the program now many are asking the question why does the department of defense have so much excess gear that it needs to unload anyway the u.s. has been involved in so many words that they become occupations and the military is as developed techniques were operating as an occupying army and they've brought

this home they brought the war home after they they buy these things and the military you know uses some of them they become surplus or if they don't buy of them all you know the military orders a certain number and then they back out of buying some of it so a lot of the stuff sitting in military warehouses and so they want to get rid of them and b. and basically congress passed a law saying that these things are to be given to police departments so we have the ridiculous situation where small towns are being given them wraps they're totally impractical they don't make any sense they're terribly intimidating. and that's part of the purpose i guess for years americans have been told that the military budget is necessary to keep them safe and protect them from bad actors around the world but it's starting to look like the bad guys these weapons are intended to be used against our a lot closer to home the very people whose tax dollars pay for them it will mop and

artsy new york former minnesota governor nazi america his jesse ventura decide to have the minister eyes ation of the police communes they say on the streets. why do cops now look like star wars commandos i mean when they come out and you look at them they don't look like your friend they look like an occupying military today not only that i was driving down minnesota a year or 2 ago and i saw on the freeway this big black vehicle looked like it belonged in iraq and i pulled alongside of him and said mr soldier state highway department this thing was unbelievable i mean it was it was a combat military machine we need to get that stuff out of our police force as we do i was in the philippines when ferdinand marcos declared martial law i was physically there and there were military on every corner with machine guns let's

not do that so to come on the weekly off the 10s of thousands of coronavirus that's in the public anger towards its leadership by the crisis the belt now the keys is russia and china a place you need to see information war during the pandemic we'll have a look at the thing tiles take.

backs geysers financial survival. housing bubble all. oh you mean there's a downside to artificially low mortgage rates don't get carried away that's cause report. but again off to being a coronavirus hot spot he was in the aging from the global crisis but it is also

starting to point the finger of blame the block is accusing russia and china of orchestrating a mass does this information campaign during the pandemic and the commission is also calling on social networks and i'm not just to delete everything they think is fake but also to produce reports on the work that they've done but it gets the if reports. oftentimes you hear what european see big headlines about this information and trolls and you just wonder that the russians are the chinese really have nothing better to do but then you read the headline again. disinformation waves have heaps europe during the current virus pandemic there originating from within as well as outside their opinion disinclination in terms of the corona virus can kill we have a duty to protect our citizens by making them aware of false information and expose the ex is responsible for

a gaijin in such practices some years ago europe took action it created east strap comm task force which runs a website e.u. the disinfo to identify and to track this information and fake news every year they get millions of euros and the blessings of top europe crowds to do their thing leading elites in europe like this that you can. waltz to the very much of the level of program. and so off cause it's. your all. want go all of those too grim for worked all night years who want to bring forward a society or bring forward 5000000000 euro for something like finding create news in 2018 e.u. v disinfo targeted dutch media outlets largely euro skeptic outlets surprisingly enough labeling their stories big news but which they were soon forced to correct

themselves because they lied and it caused a lot of the bassman for the e.u. our analysis demonstrates that e.u. vs does in force headlines and summaries border on dissent from asian according to the east rat coms own definition of the term so they visit r.t. for example and rip a sentence entirely out of context such as this bill gates is working on deep population policies and plans for dictatorial control of world politics that's insane you might say how could our teeth say such a thing well we didn't here's the full extract. and you tell him legislate to have succeeded in taking the absolute theories of the koran epidemic to new heights by using your platform in parliament to denounce bill gates as a vaccinate and alleged globalist tool so odd he like many european and italian outlets route a story about and i quote absurd theories which by the taliban and pete evy

disinfo cop out the part where an italian m.p. said it and ignored the part where a plethora of other media outlets reported it and tried to frame it as if odd she said it like there was no m.p. and nazi was publishing huge across conspiracy theories and you'd never know unless you went to check the fact checkers though it's a stretch to call them that the creative artist came from a liberal tree and recurring conspiracy theory that acars proved kremlin dissin from asian about the artificial creation of 19 a recurring program in decent a mation conspiracy theory naturally thing ripped it out of context in that segment odds he was discussing how the media itself gives crazy conspiracy theories credits by paying attention to them but really really the unsubstantiated claims of who had nineteen's lab origins up russian this information have you seen anything at this

point that gives you a high degree of confidence that the would hand institute of parole gene was the origin of this virus. yes they have we don't have certainty and there is significant evidence that this came from the laboratory the statements can both be true i've made them both administration officials have made them they're all true why isn't my pump a secretary of state on that least or donald trump president of the united states y r t which never even made the claim because that isn't what strata called east is paid to do if they can't find anything to report. bad big bad russia well people above will ask questions and cut funding european commission didn't fight the governments well they didn't kind of consistent ready to end a covert to clamp of the color crisis i think it's a very dangerous way in the moment the commission tries to district. the

attention away from their own crisis and bring forward an enemy in which that is not a good idea i can't speak for other publications that wound up on their website but every entry for r.t. is either a made up allegation or a sentence completely pulled out of context and for this east strata com gets about 5000000 euros a year to find russian this information or make it up that is when they are busy targeting euro skeptics at home how many mosques or ventilators could you buy for that those medical supplies that were soon badly needed when the pandemic hit when tens of thousands of europeans died because of shortages when europe pratt's had to have a big forgiveness we're not there on time when italy needed a helping hand at the very beginning. and yes for that it is right that

europe as a whole office a heartfelt apology and that's why the desperate to make up any way to blame russia or china or anything to avoid apologizing again but hats off to strata com east you ask any season mobster or cartel banker laundering 800000 euros a week is that these easy as an idea might i propose a magical european agency to root out and banish malign spirits because even if google still to exist strasbourg least knows how to conjure them up for money. if you can watch and we can hear not international don't forget you can also keep yourself updated to our social media pages and also feature.
