was with the new york city cop. this cop. we booked him and i had i've been know what the story was i just knew that he was on the new york city police force and that he was shot. in an incident in central park and he was in a wheelchair and and paralyzed for life and he had a little child who he couldn't feel so i was 3 years old and there was a series of. a bike that said central park some people were stealing bikes and he was on patrol driving in a squad with his fellow patrol and they spotted this black kid with a brand new schwinn bike. and he got out of a car and was approaching a kid and the kid shot. to shot. he really didn't feel pain he remembered a puff of smoke coming out of this thing the him of the falling down remember the

ride in the ambulance they gave him the last rites of the catholic church. and he thought he was going to die anyway survived but he paralyzed that down his with his wife was pregnant and he wondered why did this boy shoot. and the boy was in jail. when as a minor he was 17. when he was in for attempted murder. we don't know what the sentence was but anyway he went to visit the kid. and the kid came out in the cell meeting and he said to the kid why did you shoot me. and the kid said. i've been saving for this bike for 4 years i worked doing a groceries. in a student. and i finally got my bike. and you with the

10 cops to stop me that day. the temp come to stop me what are you doing with this black. would you have stopped me if i worked. the cops or we had to think about it in just the 1st billy have a think about it. made him understand is a kid start 10 terms of course you have a new right. just because you work and frustration. and. they're. the top. became the kids big bro. any government you. and the kid can. 1000.

facebook is facing new privacy concerns after revelations they gave the f.b.i. private messages of those who discussed storming washington's capitol building the intelligence agency revealed the information as part of its probe into the january 6th riots one such complaint been filed against new york president christopher kelly that facebook provided the f.b.i. with his log in history revealing that kelly had been around the capitol on the day of the assault award for his arrest is no been issued recent analysis reveals the vast majority of criminal cases filed by the u.s. justice department uses social media information indeed online data forms part of more than a 3rd of all convictions but house democrats are also demanding radical changes to facebook twitter and you tube to stop them being used to plan criminal activity technology expert roger k. and internet lawyer cohen discussed who they think should be held responsible for online content. the social plan one of the under pressure anyway the keys are there

there are we're going to get they have not been disciplined properly you know they go out pretty fast and lose with people's information and they're being chased down now by. various federal authorities another thing with you guys that come back into line but also because social media platform to sell struggling for a rule in the future are changing so i think it's a different environment than it was before to raise the question and now it's know what at the end it is going to be saints no twitter facebook it's going to be $22.00 doing to fear out i mean they use this previously but always going to do it is 1st is is censorship going to be derived of government or censorship is going to be the role of say facebook what's interesting is section $230.00 that so far protecting these platforms from being responsible for what's on their sites and there is kind of the understanding in u.s. laws that if you touch it you own you know if you carry this packet you're not

obliged to know what's inside of you the sooner send something illegal then they're the ones who are in trouble not you the carrier so the carriers will be protected but i think the story in this world now is that it's soon as you touch it you're editing it now you become a publication and you have a whole different sort of watch that you are so i think we get the platform to be very reluctant to touch their content one because he's slowed down the velocity of their content enough that they live on and the other is once you touch it you own it and you become responsible for the content that's coming under sites media companies and web site operators that are allowed to go to to filter through content allow to remove conte and to change content in scale not in steel i received the protection of section 230 i think the question is is is a much bigger the question is who is in charge who is god the ability to decide what to call. it should be disclosed what goldman should be published and shouldn't
