hank johnson, what he just said -- the litany of names.reminds me of the rollcall of lynching victims. they used to publish it every year, and the primary goal was to acknowledge and provide data for the evidence of the unjustness of the lives taken by vigilantes and state actors, year after year, decade after decade. here we are again, 100 years after the lynching era began and we are faced with the same crisis because we have not dealt with the underlying issues. amy: that connection that you see -- brian stevens just did a big report on lynching in america -- what are the connections that you see? we talking about policing the united states. khalil: most of the lynching era turned on both of personal responsibility of the individual that was lynched, the alleged criminality, and in some cases, their actual criminality. in every instance, the mob was kind of, an unfortunate response, a set of individual actors who took the law into their own hands. the system was never on trial in the way that it should have been except for african-ameri

i have congressman hank johnson joining me from washington. congressman, welcome.u on. >> nice to be here brooke. >> i think first of all, something that a lot of people don't know is there's actually no federal database that tracks how many people are killed by police. so the closest thing we have is this nonprofit that's been collecting data through police reports and citizen tips fatalencounters.org. if i may, let me run through some numbers. in 2014 more than 1100 people were killed by police 414 were white, 233 were african-american and just to be totally clear, this database actually doesn't account for guilt or innocence or armed or unarmed. we heard you on the floor saying this is quote, open season on black men, a hunting term. congressman, is it not dangerous to use that kind of language? >> well i said that it felt like it was open season and it really does. i think if you are a black male and you've grown up in the inner cities as i have and you have matriculated to this point in life i think most black males feel the same way. i just simply expressed a

. >> on the heels of recent police shootings georgia congressman hank johnson took to the house floor yesterday with some pretty strong language. >> thank you, mr. speaker. it feels like open season on black men in america, and i'm outraged. in fact, all americans are at risk when bad actors in law enforcement use their guns instead of their heads. >> the congressman then called for reforms before reading off the list of names of several people killed by police including michael brown and tamir rice. >>> an ex-nfl star is accused of murdering his prison cellmate. california prison officials say lawrence phillips is a suspect in the death of damion soward, he was found unresponsive in his cell on saturdays. he later died in the hospital. phillips is currently serving a 30-year sentence on charges of auto theft, false imprisonment and spousal abuse among others. in 1996 the running back was drafted by the rams. he was cut after two seasons for problems on and off the field. he later played for the dolphins and 49ers. >>> a tragic accident in washington state. a young couple and their 8-

. >> here to explain is the congressman you just saw in the video hank johnson, how are you, sir?ne been thank you for having me. >> the latest year we have statistics for, do you know how many total deaths black, fatal fatalityies caused by law enforcement, do you know how many they were? >> no, and that's a big problem, sean. >> i do have the number. >> we do not collect those figures -- >> well i have the cdc -- >> from 18,000 jurisdiction that have police departments. it's about 400 deaths. >> it's 123 deaths. the last year that we have 2012, from the cdc, do you know for 2013 the fbi, the latest statistics that we have murder statistics, black on black crime, do you know how many actual murders took place in 2013? >> well i tell you this is a problem that we have in our society with crime -- >> but i'll give you the number. there's a big disparity. >> it stems from hopelessness in our society, and a lot of what we do here in d.c. contributes to the sense of hopelessness in the black community. >> so in 2012 the cdc says there was law enforcement killing or being involved in t

. >> i talked to congressman hank johnson health care reform him on the show a couple of days ago. i pressed him on how that could be a blanket statement that all law enforcement are then considered the hunters. but back to your point, i understand i talked to a number of lawyers and understand the passion and frustration in your communities, i've talked to a number of people. at the same time looking at this from both sides, this is not exactly the best neighborhood in terms of crime. when you look at this young man's background -- i'm not saying this explains anything -- but it was lawful for law enforcement as they approached him and he ran, given facts about the situation, it was lawful in them approaching him and he ran. here's my question -- since you do know these community members what is the reputation, what is -- what is the relationship in this particular community between police and the young people? >> yes. well, it is very kbiesive when we have evidence now that this young man is being put in a paddieywagon and there are no charges. there is no threat, anything illici

let me now yield to the distinguished gentleman from georgia, representative hank johnson. mr. johnson: thank you mr. johnson: thank you for organizing this very important special order. thank you, mr. chairman mr. speaker, for hosting this. and we're here to talk about a very important subject the extra judicial killing of black males in america. it seems to be an epidemic. but it's really not. it's just simply the fact that we are hearing more about it. we're hearing more about the deaths that are occurring. we are seeing with our very eyes looking at videos. we are seeing that some of these killings appear to be unjustified. and when we -- when we understand that we're seeing what's been going on for a long time, but which has not been addressed we understand that if we don't do something to address the problem, then these killings will continue. now, why is it that we have what appears to be unjustified homicides of african-american males at the hands of law enforcement repeated daily in the 108 days or so since the michael brown killing in ferguson. we have heard of so many

hank, you picked walt disney. >> and jeff picked johnson & johnson. (?) not very well here. right? but hank, walt disney i would have thought would see new gains with the announcement of frozen 2 and star wars on the way. but you saw a bigger loss than jeff on his pick. >> it's still a great long-term holding. both are great blue chip -- hats off to, jeff. >> hank, jpmorgan for the second matchup. you picked lendingtree. big winner for lendingtree. >> yeah. i'm very into the alternative lending trend that's happening right now. lendingtree is executing on all fronts. the company is growing exponentially. i think there will be more growth, more momentum. it's a great stock to own. >> the third match-up. this was a tough one for you, hank. you picked du pont. which saw a 10% drop. jeff, you picked autozone which saw a 6% gain. du pont is under attack by activist nelson peltz. the du pont board has unanimously determined that peltz and any principal from them would not be in the best interest from shareholders. it started to fall after a great run-up. >> the

johnson. thanks for joining us. we have a terrible accident tonight. >> a two-year-old boy on the way to a birthday party was struck and killed. >> hank silverburg is in capital heights. how could this happen? >> reporter: well, they were having a birthday party here for a two-year-old and they were coming in one at a time, different cars. a van pulls up. a mother has three or four kids with her. the mother stops and the father of the boy who was having the birthday party explains that the two-year-old who was killed was hit as he got out of that van. >> i mean, it was more than one kid. the mother had three or four. and i guess little ones escaped, i guess, and he got hit by the car. >> what he saw when he came outside was horrible. >> he was bleeding a lot and you know, he was still breathing. we managed to call 911. >> the driver of the car did stop, you can see this is a tight street. cars parked on both sides. >> they did immediately begin to take life saving efforts. they called police and fire and ems. it appears to be a tragic accident. >> owens says the driver did stop for an unloading van, but didn't see the last child. now again, they were

ashley: hank, i want to go back to you because i looked at your picks as far as stocks you liked. you go with johnson & johnson, mcdonald's and proctor & gamble. these are hardly going out on a limb be kind of stocks, are they? >> no. but we're seven years into a bull market. we don't think now is the time to be speculating. invest in solid, blue chip companies. here is the theme with these picks. they all have dividend yields that are better than bond yields. better than not only 10-year treasury. but better than they pay on their own 10-year debt. companies that have decades of history of annual dividend increases. so this is much better than fixed income in our viewpoint. liz: todd, i'm so glad hank brought that up. better than 10-year yield which was all over the map and jumping -- look closed around 2.04. now it is at 2.5. talk about the action in treasury world, if you were teaching finance, and i know you teach finance to high school students, todd, what would you say on number on screen? >> 10-year is really active. really amazing, liz, the bonds are one of the most vulnerable products on the
