personally, that's my opinion. >> dmitri?think it takes away from what the focus should be and that's on what donald trump is doing to bring unification to the country and not more division. the birther issue, anyone looking at it says it's unreasonable and further they look at it and say it's a political play to get media attention and to allow him not to spend his own personal money on campaigning and campaign ads because he can help steer the news cycle when he says silly things. that's whaexactly what it was. >> can i jump in real quick? >> of course. >> the thing with the birther issue you played the clip with donald trump saying he wants to get on with the campaign. my reaction to that is america wanted to get on with being america for the last five years but donald trump was the lead person perpetuating the birther controversy and now living with the political consequences of that. the challenge for him, i think, among other things, goes back to something dmitri said a few minutes ago. which is african-americans, all a

joining me now with some analysis, dmitri roberts. he's a former chicago police officer and georgetown prefer michael eric dyson as well. mr. roberts, let me start with you. it seems as if on one hand there is plenty of attention to this problem. but the more attention that has been brought to it -- this is in a case where the more attention has focused everybody on finding the right solution. we seem to be struggling to find any solution. >> well, it's my opinion that the reason we struggle to find solutions is because folks feel like they need to be on one side of this issue or the other. just because someone add -- advocates for black lives matter doesn't mean they're not behind police. those who are for people of color, we can build a bridge and we have something so stand behind as sustainable solutions. >> michael, it does feel as if -- think about the last two years. you and i have had this conversation multiple times, and we've seen these ebbs and flows, and there's a lot of concentration on, we've got to solve this problem, an

putin arrived at the party headquarters in moscow with its leader, prime minister dmitri medvedev. >> translator: we can say that our party, united russia, has won. >> it's the first lower house pool since russia annexed crimea from ukraine in 2014. russia's economy has since faltered due to punitive sanctions imposed by the west, as well as falling crude oil prices. but putin is still popular and united russia used its ties with him to rally support. >>> jpot has become a musical force around japan. they're paying tribute to the pioneer, the peanuts. they were nonstop hit makers in their day. we tell you some of the secrets to their success. >> translator: this is one of the peanuts most famous songs. it sets seductive lyrics to a latin rhythm. this live tv foremanance with the big band is one of the high points. songwriter was part of many memorable records. he once told nhk what sets this tuna part. ♪ >> translator: the tribute album just came out this month. it features 24 popular female vocalists performing in 12 songs. ♪ two of the voices on the album belong to members of a loca

so dmitry, from a police officer's standpoint, what do you say? >> what i say is when you have an opportunity to deescalate a situation and you don't see a weapon present, you put your gun away and you go and arrest them. you don't shoot and kill them. this is the same type of rhetoric that has led to riots in north carolina. we have to change the narrative and we have to call facts, facts. i have worked in the toughest crime-ridden neighborhoods in the city of chicago and maybe even in the country and my arrest record speaks for itself. i have arrested dozens of people with guns that were fleeing and none of them ended up dead. so to your other guest, let's talk about facts, let's be honest here and let's not continue to -- >> don't accuse me of lying, sir. >> it's an unfortunate situation. i challenge you to look back at that video and let's be honest about what's going on here. let's have an honest conversation with the american people. >> let's wait until we have all the evidence. why is that difficult, sir? >> she's already indicted. she's al

differences at play but also biases have to be addressed as well. >> so cultural differences, dmit dmitriement authorities and the community especially the african-american community? is that what you're saying? >> absolutely. and those cultural differences a are -- is leading to these issues. the community doesn't have a voice. why they're taking to the streets, rioting, why police officers are getting hurt. until the police departments are willing to stand in the gap, step up, be the leadership and be the leaders they are known to be and stand side by side with these community members we'll continue to see them take to the streets and deal with the police in the ways they have. it's us, former law enforcement officers as well as active police officers that have to take a bet are approach, be leaders, stand up with the community and step forward with solutions and not continue to have press conferences talking about what we can't say. >> let's turn to tulsa, oklahoma, for a moment. another deadly police shooting there. tom, look at the police helicopter video. we'll show it to our viewer

i want to go back now and bring into the conversation dmitry roberts. thank you for letting me interrupt you earlier. you're a former chicago police officer. you were listening in to what the press secretary had to say, talking a bit about the job and the role of law enforcement officers and the environment they're conduct their jobs in. what are your former colleagues telling you about what they say, particularly in a place like chicago, which has been beset by so much violence? do they feel there is conflict between police and community members? >> no, they don't, because they're dealing with the community very effectively every day. there's a very small percentage of incidents that lead to things that we see playing out in north carolina or playing out in tulsa, oklahoma. most police officers and community officers have positive engagements all the time. they need to be highlighted. but as we turn the corner and look at those issues nationally, we have to build those bridges better between the communities. what i mean by that is start to be proactive

do you agree with what we heard from dmitri or do you see this video differently? >> i agree and disagree on certain aspects. we heard the officers say it 12 times. at least two different officers say it. there is a strong likelihood he had a weapon. here is my complaint. we haven't seen the evidence photos of the gun. this is something where the police department should have gotten the information out already. some of this could have been avoided. they had been withholding the information. watching the video, i think there will be other videos out there. this is in a community where they should have done a canvass for surveillance cameras for another angle of this. my concern is you can see the officer, looks like he removed something from under mr. scott's body ands tos it to the side. that's the object in question you had shown with the red circle on it. that's where my focus would be at this moment. i have been involved in a police-involved shooting. you get tunnel vision. if anybody is trying to engage you and if somebody has a weapon, you are not listening to

. >> dmitri, what are you noticing in terms of policing, national guard mobilized, huge presence out there and more officers on the streets and again not engaging with protesters and some protesters shaking hands of the national guardsmen and thanking them. >> those protesters are doing what the police should be doing. police should be while there's peaceful protest going on, shaking hands with the peaceful protesters out doing what they're supposed to be at this hour. i understand that there a cure few in place but employment of resources should be proactive. this is a opportunity to engage the community, allow them to have a voice, even if it's one conversation, allow them to be heard, dialogue to start happening and start to be proactive around getting ahead of what may happen tomorrow, getting policy and word out,&abling community members to take matters in own hands. like said early, protester showed up with weapon, protesters handled it appropriately and effectively but police have been to be proactive in the same way. >> stand by. is brian todd there? okay. as i understand tha

. >> dmitri's found that the russian government was behind a hack on the u.s.c national committee. >> nowadays you have to worry about public leaking of that information, information influencing operations that will be conducted against you. >> amid the public shows of unity at the g20, there may be more complex political plays in cyberspace. sebastian, cnn, money, new york. >>> conservationers say the giant panda is no longer an endanger e dangered species in china. we will hear from the director of the world wildlife fund after -- about the optimistic news. that's next. t-mobile's coverage is unstoppable. we doubled our lte coverage. and, with extended range lte, it reaches farther than ever. now you can stream video and music free in more places without using any of your data. from skylines to coastlines, out in the country, deep in the city. we got you covered. 311 million americans and counting. and we won't stop. come see why t-mobile is #1 in customer satisfaction. hmmmmm.......
