The guy just came over time you saw me and gave me a change of this book. Its a new year but the same stories persist out front as the chaotic Trump White House followed by the steel dossier and a possible breakthrough with north korea. In the heart of the swiss alps this is a place probably more secretive than the pentagon more mysterious than the cia and better guarded than for knox swiss customs are here permanently all the site is controlled by them and they impose the opening times. Opposite it is from is all plus the procedures in place of the strictest in all europe must to pieces by artists like pecan so and modigliani i cant boards and sold inside this warehouse thats where the report comes in it covers up deals which are naturally discreet commercially discreet felt but also discreet because they concern fraud.

In new orleans two centuries of slavery have left painful scars within the africanamerican community. That accounts for two thirds of the towns population moreover that africanamericans feel that they were abandoned during hurricane katrina. In two thousand and five and the pressure of the water dozens of poorly maintained levees broke. Mud flooded eighty percent of the town that was under sea level. Today the town still bears the scars of the disaster especially the poor neighborhoods. Aka the dancing that is here one of the most devastated areas. He believes that nothing has been done to rehabilitate this neighborhood. I. Am right. Back. After its me. This is only one of about one hundred thousand. That went out its not like. When you left. For aaron theres a bend in areas so the reason for the increased crime rate. Is. Down black neighborhood. High crime people become a crime anywhere from drugs wherever you got drugs are. Africanamerican people the flow speed to woods. Situation of the country no job no food. If youre not eating. If youre not eating i man what a situation yeah yeah you know you will go to the stream the hungry people of will to be extreme. Since the hurricane criminality has increased by forty percent. On the other side of the city we encounter a different atmosphere. Louisiana is a former french colony and the most touristy area really is the french. Arena tourists from all around the world get a. Lot of. Kinds of access. And of course here jazz is everywhere. Bars with dance floors and every. Day for the last year. This neighborhood is also plagued by violence last year one person was killed and nine were injured in a shoot out in the middle of the French Quarter. On another night a man attempts to kidnap a drunk girl. The man tries to stop him. But the aggressor points and it was the end of. The man begs for mercy. Presser shoots him in the stomach then tries to kill him. Luckily his weapon jams. The shooter takes flight. The men will survive this incident. The aggressor youre a cain twenty one has already been charged with rape and robbery. Youll be arrested two days later. Am night these types of aggressions are multiplying especially in restaurants which have become new targets for the criminals. The pathway is a fancy restaurant. Six months ago the only choosing and his team were the victims of an armed robbery. As lorenzo general manager. Fellow for the back right up front you know. How you do it its a riot. Yeah on that day the restaurant was packed like it is tonight. The security cameras have recorded the whole scene. There were three robbers. One guy came in and maybe a second had two seconds later two guys came in behind him the first and then the second guy came in sit very well or maybe go on the rounds the first day and he wanted to hear the register. Right here in the drawer then for a second put a gun to his head made it go to the ground they got this is not a job now or what else. Play in carries a gun but he chose not to use it on that night avoiding a bloodbath its the threat of being shot or killed thats the its not a wallet its not a cellphone its not money its not stealing my car its someone gets shot and theres no other option do you carry a gun to you know its a difficult issue though because im not for it but in a mill you like this worse there are so many dangerous people with guns it makes sense for people those guns to protect themselves. In the United States the gun issue is a sensitive subject. Are they responsible for the increases. In new orleans more and more people chose to arm themselves. To. Play. Brennan forty years old former Police Officer. He doesnt leave the house without his arsenal and i have my main gun it just goes right on the waistband. All the medical evidence is really very simple it just has what we call combat balls this particular gauze has a static agent. Unity in the not only saw they both have this wave opening feature which imagine my my pocket here got this little hook as i go to pull this out the pocket this little hook catches the inside of the pants and opens it automatically as a whole it out so i can i can defend myself from either side maybe i push against a wall and this side im not able to get this knife so i can get to this one or vice versa. Like most people in new Orleans Brennan was traumatized by katrina. At the time he was still a Police Officer get to face chaos. This is if you look right theres the Mississippi River this is all part of the levee system there was a breach in a levee where one of the oil tanker barges hit it and with that there was some oil so it was really nasty down here. Disaster. When you have adversity at the level that katrina was thats when those true call the start coming out. Of family members to dallas to evacuate and when i was coming back into the city in dallas texas i had in a p. T. Units passing me leaving the city. Many Police Officers never returned. And now were you know were very low in manpower dangerously low not only for the citizens but for the department themselves i mean these guys are you know we look we get more and more people shoot up police is just its never seen more that than ive ever seen before. Obsessed with safety. He transformed his car into a real armory. This stuff handy just in case again something crazy happens active shooter as a you know concealed carry permit also keep a rifle is the actually technically a pistol but i keep something thats a little bit bigger than i keep additional ammunition as as well. Body armor medical equipment the stuff that i would simply need to see an active shooter at a school or Something Like that and then also just keep kind of general preparedness stuff vehicle maintenance stuff tools things for spare flat tires a water fluids for the vehicle general maintenance stuff that you know probably everybody should have in their vehicle. After quitting the Police Brennan chose to open a gun shop. You can find everything here from an automatic gun to an a k forty seven. But in the red is there going oh oh how far is the range zero zero zero zero zero zero zero for let us know a little bit with the growing in security background interest in this is flourishing because like especially considering that in louisiana arm sales are deregulated cool clothes you know if you anything i love you would say you have gone. And you carry it with you you have it on you today and youre sure its ok so you feel in danger. You know. In this town the number of firearms is booming. Their sales doubled the last ten years. But a new orleans. Man has found another solution the weapons to fight criminality. Its in the heart of the French Quarter that live city tours a forty year old millionaire. He made a fortune in the Garbage Disposal service. Im driving you know rap today the way it was a good quote i heard ninety thousand per. A millionaire in. His house had been burglarized several times so sidney decided to invest part of his fortune into the security of French Quarter. He created a unique and. It allows people to send real time information to the policeman of the neighborhood. You see something that says look suspicious prostitution drug dealing you see somebody getting rob you take the side and you can take a picture and send it and it goes directly here its like having a Police Officer in your pocket. Although one second this is a crime just came in over the radio and they say they sent a picture here you see suspicious person dolfin in governor nichols and they took a picture of him see him on the corner you see him on the ground they act like theyre sleeping but theyre they actually rob people when you walk. His idea was born after his conflict with the mayor of new orleans who he publicly accused of being in active in front of the rise of criminality i tried to get a meeting with the mayor and he wouldnt meet with me so i made a thirty second commercial and i started putting it all over the t. V. Calling the mayor out on the crime in the cities the French Quarter is under siege by criminals the problem can be it is only six blocks by thirteen. You may as well advised me to come in this room in front the millionaire also stressing about the violence in the city when there is same way to do with garbage. We should hope for the misery for there was a real provocation. And so he didnt like it and he took offense to it he made millions and millions and millions of dollars off of garbage contracts in the French Quarter and maybe he should just to get some of that money and do it himself if he thinks its so easy its just not like i decided to follow his advice and invested several hundred thousand dollars to create a French Quarter taskforce a unit that works directly with the task force you download it and youre able to connect police do exactly this was something that was launched just days ago in tonights businessman city tonight today the young millionaire has become a star in the american media. Beautiful as you can see that way last gray white black and blue. This afternoon he has yet another t. V. Interview. Has become a reference in the fight against criminality. You know its not just what people in jail for arresting her its not that fast we have to have programs the mayor the city the citizens work together. If we receive so much.
