with a kind of prison i was young and speak very well, wasn't really educated, or some people believe that in the gang lifestyle that they were somebody, it was important to a particular group of people. they would rather be important tyrant than an average citizen, a struggle. some people are afraid of being who they are. the road is an easy growing in developing an easy prisoners and easing

lineage. kamani carter. and i probably started the lifestyle for a gang related job a 9 years ago. my victim was innocent. he was also a student who is attending college. his name is corey pittman. at this time i would like to apologize to the paper because only now about the gun understand that the enjoyment of life was taken away can never be replaced. and i'm sorry, my history is the life of a lot of kids out there at our community. and my reality as a young man, life, the prison will be their future if we don't start creating a better way to deal with our children who who for

a while. right? yeah, you're supposed to block the block with our baggage with the cab with field with no night law to yeah. i dont want to point the super crib. i've been doing this for

a long time since i've been through here almost 30 years in ever. it looks a lot better. it back ladies really manage with one on the motors deluxe logic with we started almost every hours up year after dark to the streets and just be crawl. and we just started out like any other patrol partners or just handle and regular police calls and then we'd be on a like a burglary call or a vandalism call. and it was that we'd hear shots be fired, you know, block away or a couple blocks away. and then at the return shot, somebody shooting out of the car. now. mackenzie with bodies in the street. people

who did sac lay in there. i moved here in august of 1980 from the detroit area, the football coach that i had, he told me about it. i'd never heard of it before. he made it sound like heaven coming to the great northwest, the peaceful northwest was a young lawyer starting a practice. so i was doing domestic contract law real estate law by the end of the eighty's early ninety's. it was almost solely felony defense. ah, the news tribune had a headline comparing to coma as being little detroit, a

very young kids it seems, were getting involved in horrendous violence. 20 to 30 years ago. i think there's no question that the kitchen cripps from les came up here and seated this area. ah, came a took a la blocked courthouse. i lived on all my life bull road anywhere from orchard all way down to the hilltop. and then yeah, these other guys was kind of scary and they will rate they had that on the side. ah, read and booted mixon, california didn't nixon to come watch to move.

ah, to com is about 30 miles from seattle. many of the african american and other folks that have come to this region after the forty's, after world war 2, a large influx. the people came, many people came through fort lewis and settled in close proximity to the commer. mm. because of red line, people were red line at the certain area. the hill top in those areas is where black people were concentrated at that time. after world war 2. to com is no different from any place else in this country in terms of how people are relegated to that bottom wrong if they are poor or if they are of color

name. there was so many of our children affected during that late eighty's early ninety's. if you around the age 111213, during that time you were affected by this m. o. so me the kids didn't survive. it killed me if they didn't die, they're in prison for a long time. ah, the hotel barry was already a poverty stricken neighbourhood. and then when you fell prostitution on that, throw gangs on that, throw crack cocaine on top of all that these kids, they are a product of the vironment that they were pushed into new. ah, and who so much,

don't so much don't that was just saturated. you have to come along, which is ridiculous. like an 88. it was flight. a lived in a world that was bumbling. wow. we did things that i never knew that i will live to see this day. oh man, the drugs, guns, the fuel, it's killing these kids grew up in something that a lot of people don't want to face reality about ah ah, i've actually found safety braces. naziism is a juice. all of a sudden you're placed in a position where i can defend myself. now, i don't have to be afraid anymore. on one hand, i'm terrified that they're going to find that i'm jewish, but on the other, i think it's so far away. i distinctly remember my mom sitting me down one night and her her st. john,

a few dollars given you and make name so to speak. but you know, i think to, for young kids build a meaningful balance. we want it to be like the all, jeez, who's been to prison, came home. they got to respect because they went to prison. dessie and went to prison. we want to be like them all my friends is either in prison, nan forever or day. and so i dug this all relic out. i wasn't certain, i could find it. and it was actually down at the office. i dug it out there. missing it got to be back to 8889. we were educating ourselves of so many kids out here run in his gang members. we started keeping a notebook on him and mr. and getting pictures, and they found out we had it and they all want to see someone come up and say my,

my face is an inner, it goes for a photograph. those are all the original kids that were recruited and ta to be gang members by the ela gangs. they were smart, they were natural leaders. the other kids looked up to him and listen to him. they could all do math in their head. you know, they all thought they were stupid or whatever because they didn't finish school, but they knew how many houses or an a pound, how many a balls he could get our men out, how much money they should get back, how much they were owed. they were sharp little guys, they had to be 10 or 12. now. he knew the 1st time that i've ever encountered law enforcement. i was young. i was a kid kind of running away from home. i was

basically living in this abandoned house with all of these other teenagers and kids . one more than i was ride my bike and i was cut into the house because the house you kind of like a, a shortcut, you know, to the next block. i've seen some police in the backyard this morning. the police officer who them drew down on them telling me don't move as you go, shoot. that's a for some other that a rest taken me home and sent me to juvenile hall and i guess they kind of charges with burglary for those kids at home when i kind of played them as my family when not and, and a home. that's what was there for me. every

single time. what did you would i'll always met somebody who did something different. oh, my never met, not a you kid before my life. but all of a sudden i me was say it say if i, while he's in here for possession of crack cocaine, you know, dan and he was making 2 or 300. all that paperwork no longer. i'm on jet or selling arms. now would you rather when you, you just fuel the mom as a nation? because you all my a had a, we was shut out economically, who is still shut out economically. the institutional racism that we have around economic steel persists,

the underlying issues m j disparities with education, with employment, with health care, with transportation, with housing. oh, let's look at drugs and let's look a gang busters look about the outcome those a night input. the inputs are the disparities that lead to that then america, money, speech, money makes policy. money decides who makes money off of drugs and who's community is a devastated. it is systemic. are we really saying to ourselves in this got that money is more upon any other thing on earth and how to get it and who you get it from an injustice and all that other stuff is just the

system is a fund henry is if that's all you leave for me to l, i will make it work. when i was cooking a hoax for white both. you know, while obviously 8 what she had left in the damn sure. didn't leave no pork roast for me and no, no, no, no baby back ribs. i got a snout at a dead ears, a good good kids. and mama neal made it to the best they could because that was worth it. if you leave room to drugs, alcohol criminal activity to make a live legal, megalithic, from the church. the church, a lawyer

i was a single mother raising 2 children and the hilton didn't have much money. the california gaines came up, made it so appealing to be a gang member. i could maybe put $10.00 in his pocket for allowance where they would give him a $1000.00 in his pocket. i always think that if willing had been younger older, he wouldn't have been swept into that lifestyle. but he was just a prime age for what they were looking for. he was 11 and they were already starting to recruiting process to get willie and many other young ones to sound rock, cocaine and powder cocaine. one time he told me that he wasn't going to go to school and i told him you're going to school today. and he made a phone call and 10 minutes later there was 3 cars in the alley, gang members sitting on the hood of the car as they were vanishing guns. and they told me, says i'm going to school today, can he's coming with us. i took him,

i felt so helpless like what, how do i fight this? calling the police? they didn't care. i said it was his choice now when it took off and that's when it got so violent. lot of kids run around. wow. i lost about like 30 brands at this time. what we really didn't know how many lies is affecting how bad it would end up being just got worse. and then finally, one day i was at work in my husband at the time, told me you need to get home kaiser place. i go into your house to search warrants . and when i got home, they said your son crossed a line this time and we got him for murder. this when he was 17 and 18, a sent him to a 100 years impressive. ah

. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on, often has very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk ah, i leaving the city where the temporary attorneys pre degree higher already from the neighboring down woods. you know, right? because the other townships haven't shopped of the trees, but in target in the name of development then in our pursuit to become of captain lake single board. we are all going for our nation just covering all of the grades we've gone. so when you distract nature, it takes

a revenge of, ah, ah, joggers archipelago home in the cho, san diego garcia, the largest island in the archipelago, is now the location of a very large u. s. military base. you could go from med div our, i to the u. s. government to make a military base and just deported all of the chuckles. and people from their con, the, the cod returned back of the island. no, but we are fighting. that's why i'm fight. we'll fighting for the right. so i, we do not consider the right to self determination actually applies to the trickle . since i don't the question, no self determination of the legal advice we have received is actually that should

go, since we're not and are not a people for me, it's time to move on and see what we can do for the child. the said committee to return back home. there is no support from the nomination commissioner for getting united miss. i don't care about chug or send people ah, breaking news hospital in the russian city of dawn. yes. has been hit by a ukrainian miss out with a number of casualties reported with one civilian is killed into a to wounded in rushes, bel gold region off the shelling from across the border by ukraine. 3rd rally on math. it's a key check point in kosovo against what they call unprecedented french and by christina nato led peacekeepers stepping in to secure the area.
