And why their work is important. Abc news correspondent bob woodruff moderated the discussion, its about 50 minutes. Now we have the great treat of hearing from laura bush and Michelle Obama who are friends and have done several of these events together. And they very much wanted to do this one together. To talk about first ladies and the military and their own particular roles and programs that they have promoted. Very wonderfully over the years. And they wanted to do it together because they like doing that. Which is so heartening in these troubled times. But before we hear from them, we are going to hear from a member of the military. Captain william b. Reynolds iii. His family immigrated from guyana. And raised him in a tradition of dedication to service, to Public Service. And instilled that in him from the time of his birth.

Might not get it from you guys. Thats the reality. You guys claim to be the good guys, you guys claim to be the heroes. You claim to keep us safe, but thats not the deal. Thats not whats happening here. I dont even have to teach my kids to not trust you or hate you guys, you are doing that very well yourselves. I think there is nothing we can do to change the past and we might not be able to change the future, but i think if you are killing us, then you are the bad guys. Because im not a bad guy. My children arent bad guys, but its a possibility that something can happen. We cant even spank our kids but you are killing our kids. I think its a shame.

Kid was beat up, i hadnt heard anything. I have a lot of respect for the police, but when they are wrong, they are wrong.

The shoot first ask questions later is bs. Your code of silence is bs. I know this, because i know plenty of you guys. Plenty. My family, this is something im not necessarily proud of. Where officers here in San
