how are you, sir? i m fine thank you. and thank you for having me. the latest year we have statistics for, do you know how many total deaths black, fatal fatalities caused by law enforcement, do you know how many they were? no, and that s a big problem, sean. i do have the number. we do not collect those figures well i have the cdc from 18,000 jurisdiction that have police departments. it s about 400 deaths. it s 123 deaths. the last year that we have 2012, from the cdc, do you know for 2013 the fbi, the latest statistics that we have murder statistics, black on black crime, do you know how many actual murders took place in 2013? well, i tell you, this is a problem that we have in our society with crime but i ll give you the number. there s a big disparity. it stems from hopelessness in our society, and a lot of what we do here in d.c. contributes
it s 123 deaths. the last year that we have 2012, from the cdc, do you know for 2013 the fbi, the latest statistics that we have murder statistics, black on black crime, do you know how many actual murders took place in 2013? well i tell you this is a problem that we have in our society with crime but i ll give you the number. there s a big disparity. it stems from hopelessness in our society, and a lot of what we do here in d.c. contributes to the sense of hopelessness in the black community. so in 2012 the cdc says there was law enforcement killing or being involved in the fatality of black, black fatalities to 123, but black on black crime 2013 according to the fbi is 2,245. your comments are against the police department and militarization. my comments isn t it a bigger issue,
offenders, 90%, there s the number. if you look at 2013 murder statistics from the fbi, number of black-on-black murders 2,245. we see it in newark, we see it in chicago. why are we not having the broader discussion? because it s easy to go after the police officers. this is a tough discussion. and it requires the entire community to take responsibility for what s happening. the police chief in milwaukee, edward flin, millions of people have watched this video on the internet, but he hits some of the same things that mayor gulianni did that 80% yeah, we have the number of blacks killed by law enforcement with a firearm latest stats available is 2012 and that s 123. so this is what gets the
oh, my god! there s a person dead out here! go in the house! go in the house! we keep talking about the police and the black community, but if you look at the percentage of black murder victims that are killed by black offenders, 90%, there s the number. if you look at 2013 murder statistics from the fbi, number of black-on-black murders 2,245. we see it in newark, we see it in chicago. why are we not having the broader discussion? because it s easy to go after the police officers. this is a tough discussion. and it requires the entire community to take responsibility for what s happening.
sensible gun regulation. however, i would like somebody to come forward, and i feel the pain of richard martinez, and i don t think he should be attacked. i think anyone who says anything against him is wrong and out of line. i don t support that. what i do support is asking people what regulations specifically would have prevented elliott rodger from buying these guns? he had no criminal record. he was under a doctor s care. he was supposed to be taking his anti-psychotic medication. he didn t need to. we re having on the radio show today a doctor who is a crusading psychiatrist who has called repeatedly for commonsense laws restricting people who are insane and dangerous and mentally ill. that s the national problem. we, by the way, do not have a gun violence epidemic. if you look at the murder statistics in the united states, they are down dramatically since 1970, down even dramatically since 2000. what we do have, though, michael, is a mass murder epidemic. it is true that overal
