Views on life if you start a more. The more socially economically deprived community is more likely to be gauged by the crime in dysfunctional behavior. Good morning to you watching R T International great. Fears of a 2nd wave of the pandemic have seen parts of europe tightening restrictions once again spikes in cases have been recorded in france germany and a number of other countries on the continent earlier i spoke with our correspondents based in paris. Well front. Tire in that way larry not have picked up a stick to. It yeah. To fire. It only from monday the city of louisville even the new the part of france has said that wearing a mask is going to make it 3 now in the citys pedestrian areas and also in the citys parks that follows decisions for example in new orleans which has decided that if you go to the open air market in that city you will have to wear a mask and into west hot spots such as be a hit and some knowledge theyve said that within the city you will have to wear a mask if you are over the age of 11 and that follows an announcement by the French Health minister has said that that decision could be taken locally to limit the circulation of caveat 19 the prefectures can now by decree extend the obligation to wear masks to open Public Places this decision can be made locally depending on the spread of the epidemic in each territory now meanwhile there is work underway to create a code between 1000 vaccine all the pressure to create one class with many countries saying that they will have something that they can grow black by the end of 2020 but the e. U. Is actually warning me even if there is a case that 90 vaccine that is ready there are many hurdles to face because its new members face an issue with the lack of certain. Certainly here that it is needed to roll out that vaccine that includes a lack of swing just like the last 6 and also a lot of white. 19 vaccines once developed may come without syringe is and other items and there could be shortages of those Member States who are asked to comment on their preparedness regarding the availability of supplies for. Immunization for example syringes alcohol wipes people now all of this comes as the latest figures show that across europe more than 210000 people said to have died with their deaths being linked to cope at 19. Weve. Heard from friends of to germany now our correspondent peter oliver is in berlin and peters understand the been even the demonstrations against measures that have been brought in to in theory tackle the virus tell us more on such as a around 15. 00 to 20000. 00 people were out on the streets of berlin protesting against them on the tree wearing of masks and although coronavirus prevention measures there are also so monks that crowd who were denying the existence of at all off the covert 19 virus no masks were worn at these demonstrations no social distancing it here too and Health Officials here in germany a furious record numbers of new covert 1000 infections worldwide it is crazy to demonstrate against hygiene rules at such a time the deliberate violation of distance rules and mask wearing is not only administrative offense but poses a danger to the health and life of others or the protesters say they have a right to free speech in a right to demonstrate the German Government and city officials in berlin say they have a right also to be responsible in these times yes demonstrations must be possible during the pandemic but not like these distance hygiene rules and masks so if to protect us all this demonstration was held it means having a full of safety requirements which were not followed so it should have been held. Were 15220000 isnt representative of the whole of the population of germany but it is a significant number and certainly significant enough to warrant comment from some of germanys closest European Partners to do. To be free of masks in the idea of freedom does not mean people love skeery well over 130 protesters were detained by police and dozens of officers reported being injured with 3 of those requiring hospital attention theres also a number of reports of journalists who were there being threatened by protesters who clearly didnt want anybody there reporting on or covering this demonstration alternately though this isnt a good look for a country that has scored pretty much choice not top of the class world wide when it comes to dealing with the initial impact of covert 19. Amid concerns about president Donald Trumps handling of the Coronavirus Crisis some u. S. Voters to turn into his democratic rival joe biden polling suggests the 2 candidates are actually now neck and neck in 2 key states North Carolina and georgia these killer morbid looks at the new Online Campaign aimed at uniting opposition to trump ahead of novembers president ial election but your man for the white house lacks a little bit of that x. Factor and has been playing it safe hiding in his bunker for months then perhaps what you need to spark his bid for the presidency is a catchy slogan something to stir up the emotions of the undecided something to rally the troops how about settle for biden sounds like joe right that all for biden dot org they describe themselves as a Grassroots Group of former Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders supporters who recognize joe bidens flaws but now our nation will answer right former years of down so maybe its not the most dynamic of slogans but can you blame those who came up with them when they. Admit they are not the biggest fans of their candidate they just prefer ham over another 4 years of turbulent trump and they think they might be on to winner and theres merchandise who would have ever thought that settle for would be Popular Campaign terminology introducing the settle for biden teacher this 100 percent cotton t. Shirt will let people know that youll vote for an old out of touch democrat in november but you wont be happy about settle for biden because it could be worse it could be better but could be worse now of course republicans have jumped in on this to make satire but joe biden does not seem to get the joke and most importantly who or should. I. Im not sure. Now that is unlike all the voters all over twitter seem to be admitting that they are voting for joe biden out of necessity not enthusiasm was running errands in my settled for biden show today walking out of a store a guy said to meet joe biden i shrugged and said yeah i agree and then walked away there was much to argue but hes better than trump get in loser were going to enact some middling reforms to quash social unrest well continuing to perpetuate a racist and classist system that disproportionately benefits and protects the wealthy. Settle for biden but jokes aside the only thing you need to know about this Joe Biden Campaign is that his own motto seems to go against this very concept this is the United States of america we dont settle we is fire lets get to work the United States presents itself as the democratic ideals of the world where free and Fair Elections reflect the popular will however nowadays it seems that voting isnt so much about backing the candidate you want as it is about stopping the one that you dont get worked up and r. T. New york. Children moore whos a journalist and political commentator says the upcoming election is about voting for or against trump. No one wants to vote for this band but of course they will its the ads i try to vote youve got this is zombie candidate joe biden and heres a zombie candidate who is just sort of walk into the presumptive nomination and theyre going to hope that he doesnt debate were going to hope that they can always basement as much as possible theyre going to shove out the v. P. As much as they can hopefully she will be able to get some excitement but as of now they are settling for biden quite a point again pain and its striking a chord with a lot of the liberals because its so true so its very irritating its making them so angry because they all realize that yes we are merely settling for it or biden. And its the anyone but trump vote and if this is who the overlords of the d. N. C. Would like well then theyre just going to bite the bullet sort of speak and vote for. The zing of the lockdown in london could result in a spike of Violent Crimes in the capital thats the concern voiced by saudi who has demanded more support from local police and Youth Services the former Police Officer told does some offices or actually can refuse him to stop and search some teenagers for fear of losing their jobs for a Police Officer to be inquisitive or being nosy that actually is only individuals own commitment or only into jazz and their own good will. Weve got a problem here in the u. K. Because Police Officers are lined against certain elements of what we call the media the activists. Up to this and some important politicians this is crucial new yorkers to be very worried about our jobs in terms of complaints against them so there are many individual Police Officers who are making the decision if they see something suspicious being done by use there actually is i agree not to go. And in fact. The net result is more use are likely to be stabbed and more are not treated are more the former chairman of britains equalities watchdog to stress that gangs are not the police are the main threat to young black people in the u. K. And while travel it did admit to problems with the government stop and search policy here and its main purpose is to prevent black on black crime according to the u. K. s office of National Statistics 97 black people were victims of homicide between 2802019 thats 14 percent of all cases half of the black victims were a 16 to 24 the majority of victims both black and white with the same race as their murderous social activist and jasper told us that the main cause of gang related violence is long term poverty. Now the poorer a community and the more socially economically tribe it community is the more likely they are to be gauged again by in crime and dysfunctional behavior thats not true of african and caribbean communities its actually true of all communities regardless of race and stopped for instance whilst we dont see the night crime prevalent in White Communities we do see Domestic Violence murders prevalent in White Communities we do see vicious violence taking place in pubs your listeners may not know what smashing a glass into somebodys face is one of the most common Violent Crimes committed by white people in this country but a black community in the United Kingdom has both average unemployment and long term policy each provocative fight for 2 years and particularly near areas like london where there is a Massive Underground drug seek.

This point the Seattle City Council is like you know kids are. A socialist candy shop they see their opportunity and theyre seizing it to get their ideology across and theyre not really thinking ahead as to what the ramifications are going to be for having civilians handle what are police calls weve been training Police Officers and Police Academies based on information and science thats been studied you know over decades and were refining it as we go along and police work obviously isnt perfect its never going to be perfect always try to make it better. You know they they think they can look at a call afterwards and say oh well look at this the police didnt need a gun they didnt use use force when we go to a call we dont know were not going to need to use force or need a gun until after the calls already done sometimes uses of force and even illegal horse happen on calls where you least expect it.

I am sure it out youre watching another lockdown edition im going underground coming up as u. S. Security forces prepare to retreat from portland after accusations of gassing beating and kidnapping protesters is the war against racial capitalism far from over we ask longtime protest organizer vice chair of the org. Democrats black caucus gregory but healthy how does nasa launches its historic perseverance rover to mars to look for signs of life is it the end of us a gemini in unlocking the secrets of the universe after chinese attempts to make history on the red planet we ask alan stern who is leading the 1st ever mission to explore pluto about how high the stakes are when it comes to space all this more coming up in this lockdown edition of going underground but 1st lets go to portland to Gregory Mchale hes the vice chair of the Oregon Democrats black caucus gregory what on earth is going on in portland were seeing images all over the internet of tear gas of warfare not seen even in even in countries where the u. N. Is impose sanctions on. Yeah its really appalling to see in the streets of berlin its right downtown in the heart of our city and every night appears to look like a war zone we have troops in camouflage police deploying tear gas and flash bangs and its absolute chaos down town portland and its hard to see in a city that i love so much now you know the child was the boss of a department of Homeland Security says youre all violent and i cant see on the streets of poland apparently theyre using george w. Bushs 2002 Homeland Security act 200 to not change under president obama that allows the federal security Security Forces to attack what they presumably see as violent advocates yeah i mean im not a violent man i care if they have never committed violence at a protest much of what they say is violent an arche is actually graffiti. I know that many people are appalled to see that graffiti but i think that images such as george floyd getting the life choked out of him or even the flash bangs and rylan that weve seen at these protests as much more appalling than any graffiti that my occur at a protest and i also think it is a very small amount of individuals who may do that graffiti and it does not make sense in a country those host to be a free country that they would be deploying indiscriminate weapons against entire nonviolent crowds just because of the actions of some small amount of individuals while the nato nations are supposed to i dont know media in countries that washington may see as enemies the pictures of have to be on the internet mainly theyre not headlining the news what have you witnessed and what have you heard from the street level actions of Police Involved in because weve been seeing what seem to be u. S. Federal forces attacking protesters on the ground amidst clouds of tear gas. I think what youre seeing is accurate but i think that part of the story that is missed is that this happened because its 50 days of protest before the federal officers came in and before it was federal officers to point here gas it was our own local Police Departments that were deploying tear gas and beating protesters and so its just continued weve seen terror for years with mayors in america as well as. The president himself not over what to do about pro test but rather who gets to beat up protesters who gets to detain them who gets to throw them in a unmarked bands who gets to deploy tear gas and so at some point the person deplane the tear gas might change the tenor on the ground in the. City of the protests i dont think its going to end into we see justice for people like Brianna Taylor and george floyd in many others that have been killed by police in portland well president jiang has previously been on the record as saying of course the likewise another Movement Began under obama not his presidency and hes saying that there would be no poor blood he would be burned it would be burned to the ground if it wasnt for those federal forces anything personally that said touch your mother demonstrations. Yeah i mean the effects of this tear gas i think are incredibly scary we were there in full protective gear trying to help people out of the gas you dont actually see it coming in it just in the air its not like a cloud that you can run from there was no warning youre sick
