cleveland and here. i was in the meeting at the white house with the president as they began moving. the attorney general talked with mrs. garner and me today. they talked about an independent investigation. but let's be clear. let's be clear that while we ask for the federal government to move, we are moving that way on saturday a week from this saturday, december 13th, we are having a national march in washington, d.c., where we are calling for the justice department to take this case and the case in ferguson and the case in cleveland. it is time for a national march to deal with a national crisis. why a national march? because if we -- we cannot be put around like social hamsters. one minute ferguson, next minute new york, next minute cleveland. no, we're going to bring ferguson, cleveland and all of new york to the nation's capital. >> that's right. >> to say enough is enough. this saturday we will be -- they'll be funeralizing former d.c. mayor marion berry, so we'll wait one week but we'll use every moment to organize. the head of the urban league and others will be meeting here with us as we plan this march. and

cleveland. it is the history and knowing that we can elaborate on that. it is to put your loved one, your son, your brother as would be in mr who committed some minor offense. very, very minor offense. and winds up dead from a chokehold. how would you feel about that? and then there would be no even arrest or prosecution at all that would just be okay. and i think that's what got communities upset. but we also, you brought it up. talked about with it paul, too. the tactics of policing. we can do so much better. if we look the a all these cases. we see the tactics from cleveland with the 12-year-old boy to dayton with the young man shot in the walmart. just rushing in and it is too fast. there needs to be a little more circumstance up specs. a little more negotiation and maneuvering. >> a lot more work to do. we're going to get it double. we must. thank you both for your time. introducing... a pm pain reliever that dares to work all the way until... the am. new aleve pm the only one to combine a safe sleep aid plus the 12 hour strength of aleve. will thank you. , sir? ordering chinese food is a very predictable experience. i

mr. garner's case as well. when he puts his hands like this, okay, okay, when they get on his back. take a step back. take a step back. in the clevelandth the child, if you drive your car in like that, if you have an escaped felon with a gun who wants to kill the cops, you're dead, he's going to shoot you as soon as you drive up. what kind of tactic is that. take a step back and be smart we can police better than we're doing. the public has no idea it's part of police train, which is retreat. retreating when there's nothing at stake. eric garner is a good example of that, michael brown is a good example of that. what's the worst that can happen? eric garner will continue to stand here a little bit longer. that's the worst that can happen as more an more cops surround him. give him breathing room -- a horrible expression to use in this situation. but there's a mythology like it's. >> chase down and get them at all costs. talk about the word retreat? is. >> there are tons of police officers horrified by this. tons of them. my heros in the new york police department some of them are still there, some still retired. invariably were able t

cleveland police department, some have begun to make demands. in new york protesters have issued a list of demands beginning with the firing of officer pantaleo. as members of new york's congressional delegation wrote, mr. garner's death has taken place in the context of a broken windows polices strategy that appears to target communities of color for minor violations and low-level offenses. but for some, including bratton hymn, denial is the order of the day. >> what does a plan man in new york city have to fear from the nypd. >> nothing to fear from us. >> joining us is bill keller. trymaine lee and director at the university of chicago institute of politics, david axel rod. >> when you hear what do you have to sphere from the nypd and he is saying nothing at all. this should be a moment where sides should be coming together but the rift between the community and the police is maybe growing. >> yeah, it's a trouble thing because we need policing. we need a police presence. we need safe communities. on the other hand, this is an old story. bill and i were talking earlier -- i started as a young reporter in the '70s in chicago, these stories were evident then. now we have social media and can videotape

mr. crump, we know this comes against the backdrop of this consent decree calling for major reforms in the clevelandice department you have also filed a wrongful death lawsuit. >> right now the family is focused on getting justice for tamir. they're very concerned because they look at what happened in the garner case where there was no indictment. where a man was choked on video and the local officials did not indict him. they're very concerned about the local prosecution. >> and finally, what would you like the world to know about tamir? >> tamir was a bright child. he had a promise in the future. he was very talented in all sports. i mean, he was just a wonderful kid. everybody loved him. he was very helpful. very caring. very kind. and he was my baby. he's the youngest out of four. and he was my baby. >> and we're sorry for your loss. thank you for joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> boy, this one is so hard to understand. we're going to switch gears now. >>> yes, indeed, we are. the first ever college football playoffs. the debate is still raging across the country this morning about the f

mr. speaker. i rise today to address the recent tragedies that have occurred in my hometown of cleveland, ohio, but also the positive change that can come out of these tragedies. in november, 2012, melissa and timothy lost their lives following a high speed chase involving more than 60 police vehicles. cleveland police officers fired 137 rounds into their vehicle. the pair were unarmed. i immediately wrote to the department of justice seeking an independent review and investigation surrounding the circumstances that led to this use of daily force by -- deadly force by law enforcement. following the death of michael brown and the unrest that followed, i again wrote to the department of justice in august, 2014, asking for action. while waiting on the results of the department of justice investigation, tragedy again struck my district on november 22, 2014. when a 12-year-old boy was shot dead by the cleveland police department, an officer in a park outside the cadell recreation center. while my heart is still heavy, i believe some good will rise from the ashes of this tragedy. on thursday, december 4,

mr. chairman. boy, there's so much year. you know, this is a moment i think in this country that, you know, our first witnesses and all of you talked about how ferguson, staten island, cleveland are not anomalies. but this is, there's a focus now in this country, and this is a moment, a moment that i think we really need to at least, at the very least, try to grapple with this, try to focus on it, and try to legislate. i heard from a friend who i hadn't heard from in 20 years after this, after senator booker spoke, and you heard how powerfully he spoke today. he spoke in our caucus lunch. in that same evening i got an e-mail from a friend i hadn't seen in 20 years who said, you have to do something about this. i have conversations with my 15 year-old son that are very uncomfortable you're just like senator booker talked about, what it's like for young african-american male, that there's no margin for error in dealing with law enforcement. i want to ask dr. alexander, you talked about community policing, and i think, and it sounds to me that, i think what you are saying, mr. henderson i believe, was that when there's not federal crimes involved but still federal funding involv

mr. brown as well as what took place in cleveland that is clear from the evidence how communities of colorrs there. what we need to do is ensure once again this movie selma just came out which i want folks to lock at, but looking at selma, showing the need to have the federal government come to the rescue of rendering justice in a balanced way for the good of all of the american people. >> what would you say to protesters who are being told to hold off. >> just as i say i want them to give respect to folks in the community, the folks in the community and those demonstra r demonstrators can give respect to the families of the slain officers and wait until they have been laid to rest. they want respect on both sides. knowing that you have the right to do it and simply out of respect for the families, because no one who is really part of the movement of the demonstrators believe and or condoned the assassination of these police officers. out of respect for their families, that's all we are asking. don't demonstrate. let them be placed to rest. they served on our we half. >> how do you have a
