A large swath of people in our nation dont want to reckon with the Horrors Police that caused in communities of color because to do this would call into question the entire way we have viewed these systems and their roles in our society. You see it seems easier to go after the guy or the Mental Health of the perpetrator when that monster happens to be a civilian but but when the monster is using a gun that was purchased by the state while wearing a badge. They dont really go after that one so today lets delve into the side of the gun violence debate that no one wants to talk about as we start watching. The. Street with the. Real thing its like. As if you were to pull out of it. What they like you know that i got. This. While they were going to watching the hawks i am tired robot and im to have a. Place while when you look at the actual numbers then not every hit every light matter is every one of these people whether youre a cop or youre a civilian walking down the street these lives actually do matter and part of their job as Police Officers is to be protected so. If 4300. Police shootings in which people died were considered just theres no way to justify that somethings not right either way or under it are going to grow its hard for me to accept it all for you know 40 over 4000 Police Killing you know where they shot and killed somebody that every single for all 4000 of those people were someone deserving to be shot its good its hard im sorry the percentages dont add up to that and it doesnt and thats the thing when you look at these things that there isnt there isnt a rationale for it theres always an excuse yes theres always a justification but thats why were not getting anywhere and its not Getting Better and look at these numbers according to the Washington Post 27900 people were shot and killed by the police 28992 this year 2019 were already 570 you know many people been killed by a mass shooter you know all you see on the news all day long not that it doesnt deserve attention it doesnt matter these are major problem they do deserve attention but only 62 people have been killed thats 62 too many but when you compare it to 570 by police thats a massive discrepancy in the numbers and i mean theres something that you have to look at be honest it isnt just if if police simply shot people who didnt comply and it was always justified and thats this idea you know if we believe this. Then why is it only poor people seem to be the ones who have a problem with the police why is it only poor people that are aggressive. And thats where these numbers also look so they there was a university of liver in california 2018 study in which they took data from 3144. 00 u. S. Counties what they found is that Mass Shootings and high levels of income inequality and high levels of income are connected. So thats basically saying that a lot of these Mass Shootings you can always trace a lot of these problems back to the wealth problem in this country yes and then when you look at a place like chicago. This terrible problem oh why are we do know why are we doing anything about it well one thing they seem to do is give cops more money and give Police Departments our money chicagos 2019 budget for the folks at home gives over 1500000000. 00 to the Police Department while the entirety of what the city calls their Community Services infrastructure that includes the department of Public Health and the department of family and support services is allotted just 200000. 00 now im sure there is funding that come from other places and ill get any amount they like thats not all that we get but theres something fundamentally wrong when health Public Health gets less gets even even to a 1000000 up against 1500000000. 00 because more guns more police are going to fix the problem and that is the problem is because and that to me is what the real issue is with this is that we spend more time getting distracted by the debates of like the simple black and white debates take guns off the street keep guns on the street then looking at what the causes are a bit of a lot of this wealth inequality dress all of the you go down the list when people are not giving money to Public Health and department of family and support services that creates criminals that creates people whove been. I would go out and hurt people and also the police. Actions their plans to address these often involve what are supposed to be people and training thats only used very rarely in the most slimmest of of inductances and thats the swat teams yeah i mean one of those moves between 5280000 Swat Team Raids are carried out on people on citizens in the United States every year or noncitizens through the scene does 80000 swat raids across the country in there and then youre shocked when theres Police Violence when people actually get killed because i dont think the people doing swat are trained to do that i dont think theyre i think there are people using swat equipment using special forces equipment acting like they are you know rangers and theyre not youre not properly trained knew shouldnt be that aggressive in the 1st place so you should. While the proud boys and to fox showed up in portland this weekend in their typical overhyped attention seeking fashion it was the protesters in hong kong who once again dominated the streets and the headlines for what is now the 11th straight weekend the thoroughfares of hong kong were packed with protesters with some estimates putting the demonstrators close to 1000000 strong on sunday and r.

Every week until we get what we do reporting in hong kong. Our team. As we go to break the let us know what you think of the topics weve covered all of our social media pages be sure to check our watching the hawks the podcast available on spotify apple music and everywhere listen the podcast coming up we find out if there has finally been justice in the killing of eric garner of our t america correspondent john burns with the latest on the power 3 connected to Geoffrey Epstein a stay to watch or to. In this community there are people who believe that its ok to substract food on my table its really hard there are no jobs and you see that ive got kids that ask and as a parent. I can come up with lots of arguments theres a lot of conflict in the game between the teams most of the conflict i would say revolves around money and most of them money is made. Close one on the childrens cosimo each other is Good Business the state of california alone makes 6000000000 dollars and you have to prison complex just to get some point in your life where. You dont care and one of my hair is a monster so your hair might anything. What politicians do. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or somehow want to. Have to go right to the press this is like them up for 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the waters in the. First city. Paradise with some ground and into a round the experimentation field the agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants theres no question otherwise why would that the Chemical Company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but also in india and you have many of these people one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental racism going on in hawaii whether these Companies Feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. Today we finally saw a step towards justice and accountability. We saw a process that was actually fair and impartial. And i hope. This will now bring the Garner Family a sense of closure and the beginning of some peace. And y. P. Commissioner of Police James Oneill amounts to a press conference on monday that 13 year veteran of the n. Y. P. D. Daniel plan to layo was officially fired for his use of an illegal chokehold which took the life of citizen eric garner on july 17th 2014 the incident became a case study for why so many africanamericans in the United States fear the police even in announcing the firing commissioner still still felt the need to blame the victim eric garner and make a victim out of the person who actually broke a law officer and to layo. Every time i watch that video. I say to myself its probably all of you do. To mr garner dont do it comply officer pantalone dont do it. I said that about the decisions made by both of japan to laos and mystical but none of us can take back our decisions most especially when they lead to death of another human being. Despite bending over backwards to make excuses for his officers and their conduct in the field that wasnt enough for the president of the new York Police Benevolent AssociationPatrick Lynch instructed officers in his union to essentially stop doing their jobs take a listen i stand here today to tell every new York City Police officer and iran patrol right now when someone calls 911 and dispatchers call you and is a circumstance where you have to put your hands on someone. Farts call Emergency Service 2nd because you will not have the backing of the city. In the wake of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epsteins apparent suicide last week many began to look even closer at those who helped the mysterious billionaire keep his international multifaceted child and sex trafficking ring operating however despite some very powerful people being connected to abstain the most powerful are still being protected by those in the media despite new evidence video emerging over the weekend showing British RoyalPrince Andrew the duke of york at Jeffrey Epsteins new york mansion in 2010 given mind thats 2 years after abstain was already found guilty of solicitation of prostitution involving a minor and he was forced to register as a hire a sex offender in addition new evidence including photographs has emerged suggesting Prince Andrew posed to Geoffrey Epstein and members of his entourage at the queens a state more castle in 1909 and a statement a british newspaper the telegraph a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace stated that Prince Andrew the duke of york his Royal Highness deplores the exploitation of any human being and the suggestion he would condone participate or encourage any such behavior is a borat. And yet despite the seriousness of the charges and evidence against Prince Andrew it seems that royal experts and british tabloids were far more concerned this week with denouncing the duke and duchess of Sussex Meghan and harry over their travel arrangements for an 800 mile trip to france and on this side of the pond the u. S. Media has been no different let us not forget that it was Julie Kay Brown of the miami herald who finally took the evidence that have been driven acted by every major media outlet and expose not just the crimes of epstein but the cover up of them by government officials from palm beach to capitol hill now with the latest on the jeffrey abstain cases one reporter who is not been afraid to speak the truth and bring it to you joining us from miami is our t. America correspondent john had a thanks for joining us. My pleasure good to be on with you guys always here if youre always opposed to it is the statement from Buckingham Palace on behalf of Prince Andrew enough to get him off the hook as far as the focus of epsteins rich and powerful friends being potential coconspirators in this mans you know child pedophilia written. No no it isnt it really isnt because he remains tyrone tabitha one of the as we know central figures in all of this accused of sexually abusing underage girls that were exploited and trafficked traffic by jeffrey abstain and among them Virginia Roberts who frey who alleges that epstein basically lent her out to his rich and powerful friends including Prince Andrew and there have been pictures of Prince Andrew with a good phrase so you know look he cant deny ever meeting her or being in the same proximity vicinity as her because theres proof that he certainly was and now there are seemingly more evidence that even after epsteins 2008 conviction Prince Andrew was still hanging out with a convicted sex offender the daily mail posted a story and accompanying video you guys probably saw that saw the. Maybe our viewers to the daily mail posted the story in video over the weekend showing whats purported to be Prince Andrew standing inside the doorway of epsteins Upper East Side townhouse back in december 2010 the video which is about a minute 30 long shows at seeing and a young woman come out of a townhouse initially followed a few seconds later by his assistant and then another young woman and what appears to be Prince Andrew standing in the doorway waving goodbye followed by other young women then coming in a little bit later in the video so it essentially proves that even after his conviction at seeing still had a penchant for young women that were being paraded in and out of his townhouse and this continued to go on at the same time that his lawyers were trying to basically persuade prosecutors in the manhattan d. A. s office to essentially rescind epsteins criminal status as a high risk sex offender his legal team essentially argued that epstein should be registered as a low level sex offender because according to the wall street journal report that came out and others the Florida Police allegations against him about a sexual abuse of underage girls were quote unquote flamm atory and unreliable so i mean just another added element to this to this sordid story right did that argument does it seem strange to me of course theyre trying to say it like that was it with there were 30 over 30 women young women where identified as having been victims on them and some of them still under age in the florida did that argument worked with this or is ever able to change his designation as a high risk sex offender. Well heres the thing almost it almost did because the manhattan d. A. s office said that in 2010 this goes back to 2010 that it would consent to designating mr epstein as a low risk offender but ultimately a state panel the new york board of examiners of sex offenders. Classified ad seen as the highest level offender most likely to commit another crime and the new york judge that was overseeing the classification agreed with that panel so that said though epstein did manage to avoid having to check in with the n. Y. P. D. Every 90 days because he listed his Prime Minister primary residence as little st james island as we know his private island in the u. S. Virgin islands but this is just 11 more example of abstains really wealth and power being used to benefit. Being used to his benefit despite the serious accusations and allegations against him both before and after his prosecution and clearly proves to be this continued behavior and stain as we now know managed to avoid serious prison time and federal charges back in 2008 with that socalled sweetheart deal and instead he pled guilty to the lesser state solicitation of prostitution charges in florida which while still requiring him to register as a sex offender required him to only serve 13 months in county jail in Palm Beach County during which time he was able to to leave during the day for work relief you know it work really so that yeah go ahead obviously its interesting because its like you know a lot of what im seeing now especially out of the media is this kind of like obsession with you know the suicide which obviously everyones going to jump on and but you know what mentioned at the start you know theres this kind of like burying the Prince Andrew story you know down there to get a scroll way way out of the daily mail even ketchup you know are we do believe you know and but youve been journalist for a long time are journalists getting too caught up in the my new show of this and are we forgetting about the powerful people involved and not kind of following those trails and those leads getting caught up in the my new show of whether he was you know did he commit suicide or how did he do it and all of. I think thats a great question and its and its a its a very good point and i think the answer is yeah you know there is theres been so much of that and you kind of you know you lose sight of really you know well theres a certain theres a couple different parts to this 1st of all you know certainly his arrest the indictment on those charges his attempts to get out of jail and then yes now his suicide the aftermath the speculation the conspiracy theories did he commit suicide did somebody get to him in jail all of that and all the tabloid fodder that goes with that but the other aspect and perhaps the bigger part and now the new chapter thats beginning or has begun in this story his rich and powerful friends those that have been tied to him those that were with him throughout this and those that possibly work o. Conspirators in his his criminal activity and that that i think youre right overall in the media really lost sight of that and it just and also keep in mind that abstaining was hit with his wealth with his circle and its association with not only the socialites not only with the Prince Andrews but also powerful politicians attorneys and then scientists people members of the Science Community that he was courting trying to basically get in their good graces to give himself a you know kind of basically really promote himself some you know as subsiding to store science based you know enthused i tell you that sort of as we will definitely give up on this story thank you so much for coming on and giving us that info is an absolutely. My pleasure thanks for. Its a tale as old as time at least for creatures sent to sea horses and cheat us who were the inspiration for this engineering marvel from research as a cure university in tokyo japan the device you see it was designed to help. Those with balance problems such as the elderly so they can remain upright and keep from falling down the one metre long device uses for artificial muscles and compressed air to allow the tail to move in 8 separate directions with the help of a spring base structure like a pendulum the tail moves in the opposite direction of the wearer at low in the counterbalance to keep them upright aside from the elderly the tail called are could also be used to allow workers in warehouses and construction sites to lift heavy objects with assistance reducing on the job injuries and fatigue so if you cant make heads or tails of your balance problems science may be on the road to helping you out and im sorry i want to tell you all but our that is our story and i barely remember when those rules were not told the word love the upside so you will go on top of the wall of sleep on watching those hawks over there in the breeze there in the. Interest rates are split and gapping in the spread is widening into what i call the Interest Rate apartheid if youre in the wrong side of the trends of Geoffrey Epstein you end up in m. Bantustan of extortion ery credit card rates if youre a friend of jeffrey abstain then you get the insider rate of negative and you get paid to lend money or to borrow money from from the bank. Seemed wrong. When old rules just dont hold. Any new world that is yet to shape out of disdain and become educated and in gains from it equals betrayal. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. In this community there are people who believe that its ok. Its really hard there are no jobs and you see that i got kids that ask and as a parent. I can come up with lots of arguments theres a lot of conflict within the game and between the teams most of the conflict i would say over most rahmani and most of them is me. Close one on each of those he knows each other is Good Business the state of california alone makes 6000000000 dollars you have to prison complex just to get some point in your life where. You dont care anymore now my hair is a monster so your hair might anything. The u. S. Confirms its carried out the 1st test of a Cruise Missile previously banned by a treaty signed between moscow and washington over 30 years ago. Also this hour u. S. Attorney general william bart sacks the director of prisons after the suicide of Geoffrey Epstein we discussed the conditions at the jail where he took his own life with his former lawyer. But fundamentally wrong with that is that jeffrey upstream did not belong in that facility to begin with. And its been revealed a british social Media Network aimed at young muslims is part of a u. K. Government plan to tackle radicalization
