Can we use like other 0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:19.919 people's music, like back Together? Probably not, They're probably gonna 0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:22.919 try to us. And you know, na, I think you 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:29.120 gotta say, I don't right to this music. That's the jam. 0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:34.800 I like that. I like that. Oh yeah, okay, you 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:41.640 know and uh back together again, Yeah, that's the jam. 0:00:41.880 --> 0:00:45.440 They don't know anyway. What is this that you have 0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:52.640 on today? It's nice the black people? Black people, let 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.560 me take one of the shoes. Oh my god, are 0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:59.800 you serious? And it's okay, don't put the bottom on 0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:04.880 the table, just whole and then I'm gonna give you 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:08.119 some hands and genesee to give you the thing where 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:10.000 she tried to kill me today. She made me wipe 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:17.440 my hands with the hospital. The hospital, and we borrowed 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:20.679 the whites from the hospital. But we did because they 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:23.840 told us it was a pandemic. So they told us 0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:27.680 it was to borrow means still we did not when 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:30.200 they said we borrowed, and they said in that manner, 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:36.280 at what happened was because it was the pandemic we had. 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:38.920 They told us to take those whites and to really 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.640 clean the house down. It was the beginning of the pandemic, 0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:44.800 and you couldn't get and you couldn't get whites. Well, 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.600 I just I don't want to say. I don't want 0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:50.080 to say I took or stole because I didn't. They 0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:54.360 gave it to us. Well, okay, so is the wrong word. 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:57.600 But they gave us because you couldn't get whites and 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:02.880 stuff exactly. And so they said on these particular whites, 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:06.840 they said, do not use with your hands. And I'm 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.440 sitting over here, I let this lady give me a wipe. 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.320 I didn't look at where it came from or what 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:13.760 the container looked like, right, because it's purple and white 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:17.320 and its really industrial stuff. You know that our studio 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.880 is what two floors up from a major plastic surgery 0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:25.840 office with a medical office, right, So there's medical stuff 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.560 in that building. So they wipe. Didn't want to stay 0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:32.080 COVID free, and so they're doing the extra extra, not 0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.960 the regular lights on. So I go and I use it, 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:38.640 and all of a sudden, I start going I'm like 0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:41.600 dying and She looks at me and goes, oh, yeah, 0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:46.320 maybe you're not supposed to be that. I was. No, 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:49.320 I was okay you Why don't we put you one over? 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:53.360 I was standing right. No, you wasn't know I touched it. 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:58.960 It probably went through my finger. Yeah. And speaking of 0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:06.200 nasty net like super duper net, I know, I'm serious. 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:11.639 I don't feel this is my personal conviction. I personally 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.000 do not feel that any group of people should be 0:03:15.120 --> 0:03:18.720 in a society where you cannot walk up and down 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.880 the streets or be at a restaurant, or or be 0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:26.560 or just just have freedom of eating or living in 0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:32.359 your apartment without rats, physical rats running around rampant. That 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:35.000 is not okay with me. And and and I'm not 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:39.480 trying to be like Boujie too nobody. No, but I 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:42.280 don't care. I don't care. If you are houseless, you 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:46.360 should not have an influx of rats running around you. 0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:49.920 Our friend Emil text me last night and said that 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:52.840 he was walking in the middle of the street in 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.800 Harlem to get home because there was like four or 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:59.520 five rats all around, like on the side walls. This 0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:03.200 is not It's like, it's like imprisonment. It's not cool. No, 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:05.640 it is the red thing is out of control. I've 0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.400 seen something on Instagram when they had something they looked 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:10.360 like a beaver and they said it was a rat. 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:14.120 It looked like a beaver. There's no way this rat. 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.720 The rat was like racon No it was you're talking 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:22.440 about me being about the white bro that rat. It 0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.680 did not look like it looked different, but it was 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.880 still the size of these big as New York. This 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:32.040 rat was about this big. Yes it was. They had 0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:35.480 the trap they had, Man, you're bugging. You didn't see it. 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:38.680 It wasn't that big. But it's a big rat. But 0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:43.520 it still wasn't that big. I'm just saying you shut listen. 0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:45.560 We need you to show it. Why would they want 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.719 to say that because you're sending it. Stopped sending me that, 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:52.799 because no, I'm not. I'm into seeing it. I'm into 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:57.760 trying to stop it. I'm literally the mayor of New 0:04:57.839 --> 0:04:59.720 York City and tell him that I want to be 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:02.200 want the task for us. I said this before, but 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:03.919 I need to do it for real. I want to 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.040 be on the task for us to deal with rats. 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.960 It is not fair. And just now somebody else sent 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.919 me a video where the rat is running through the 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.679 fried chicken spot. Now in in there in the food, 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:19.640 eating the chicken. Now here's a problem with that, right, 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.680 here's the issue. And I've been saying this for a while. 0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:25.640 First of all, you know, when I go out somewhere, 0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:28.839 aren't gonna lie if I'm coming back from a long drive, 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.640 or if I go out and I'm clubbing or whatever, 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.680 I go by the chicken joint and get me a 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:37.040 piece of chicken. I mean, that's just a normal thing. 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.920 Sometimes you're in the middle of your day, you're hustling, 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.679 and you need something to eat, and you just don't 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.680 have an opportunity to go. You know, I don't eat 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:48.160 fried chicken like that anymore. But the fried chicken joint 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.159 is a part of the culture of like you in 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.480 New York, you live in the hood, you understand that's 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:58.600 what it is. And you're telling me I've never ever 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:00.640 and I'm not saying it wasn't there before. But the 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.040 point is now, all of a sudden, the rats is 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:10.120 they are just bold in the day, out in anywhere. 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:13.600 And no, there's more rats. I mean, that's that's no. No, 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:17.359 it has been verified the people that study rats and 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.919 underground and stuff, because during the pandemic. When they moved 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:26.120 the restaurants outside and the garbage was not being properly contained, 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.919 then they had This is what took place. Like I 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:31.159 hope that you guys put in this footage. I'll send 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:33.560 you a picture of the garbage built up near a 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.200 woman's house that I know. I went by to visit 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:40.560 her and her the garbage is disgusting. It's bags of garbage. 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.360 Everywhere in her house is extremely clean, but there's no 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.400 way that it's just a matter of time. Put it 0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.640 that way. Even that lady that we saw on Lisa 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.400 Ever show that had the rats with the you said, 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.640 beaver in the house, it doesn't look dirty, but the 0:06:54.720 --> 0:07:01.360 rat is running through her child's clothes. No limits where 0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:05.279 these rats can go. They've reached it all time high. 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:07.159 I'm not I don't know if it's the numbers of 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:13.080 different differing. What I'm saying is the boldness they come out. 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.400 They stand up on the high legs. They're giving you 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:21.320 five you know, for real, like they're standing on it 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:25.920 because I shopping now, if you want to see, if 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:28.440 y'all want to hear the call that I'm at the hospital, 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.239 because that's what it seems like it seems like people 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:36.960 are trying to make us accept rats as and I 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:40.000 don't even know what people I'm talking I mean many dimensions. 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:41.880 You don't even say how real that is. It's not 0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:45.680 even just in the physical but the rats want to 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:53.040 be accepted society, and these physical rats are really speaking 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:56.560 for the rest of the rats. Listen, if you want 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:59.440 to ship, do you mind as well let us come outside. 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:01.520 You're a fool. Yeah, they get chill on the blocks 0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:03.920 with y'all outside everywhere. Yeah, but we're not going to 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:07.200 accept this. I'm not. I'm telling you I'm going full fledged. 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:11.560 I might take I if I listen, I may take 0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.400 a leave of asses to go work for the Mayor's 0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.640 office in the department where they deal with rats. I'm 0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:21.240 dead serious about this. This is not something I'm playing about. Now. 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:25.560 Here's my only, my lad final point, not my only. 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:29.040 This is my final point for today on this issue. 0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:34.880 Ob eats, door dash and all of that. You don't know, right, 0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.760 Like you don't know if we're seeing the rat eating 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.920 the chicken in the window. If you know anything about 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.360 the chicken spot in New York, you see the chicken, 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:46.160 it's right there. How the hell does the rat even 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.200 get up the thing and in the thing and in 0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:51.640 the things supposed to be closed the glass where the 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.520 chicken is behind the glass. Sometimes I don't know if 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:59.040 some of these na bron because some of that don't 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.960 even make how they get inside of the comment. Well, 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:04.680 because you know, first of all, we which you and 0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:07.840 I already know if you eat at the chicken spot, 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.800 you already eating nasty anyway, like dirty chickens. We're going 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:17.199 to yeah, we we we acknowledge that. Okay, BB and 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:19.760 numbers over there, they've got a little dirty chickens. You know, 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:25.360 it's not filthy. That's not nice. Yeah, but it's not nice. 0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:28.800 It's actually like derogatory to put it in the context 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.840 of dirty chicken it in the hobbyby. But it is 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:35.480 true most of them, most of the middle Easter, yea, 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.800 they have chickens and they're not that clean. You're filthy. 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:43.200 You know, they got their little bucket that you see 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.880 them doing a little sweet But you know, it's just 0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:52.640 not those types of spots, even restaurants, even the local 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:56.920 whatever whatever kind of store, when it's local and it's 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:02.360 the spot, they don't be that clean. That's don't they 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:05.360 don't have the spot list because I don't eat sandwiches 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:12.800 from the regular bodega like and you wait, wait, listen. 0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:17.120 You know in my hood they got this fish with 0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:19.400 the salad. This that's one of my favorite mans. I 0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:21.880 go to the hood to get my seafood mill. This 0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:25.560 is one of the best meal grill shrimp. They do. 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.400 They do everything. Then, so shout out to the the 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:32.160 Dominicans on one seventy person. Man, they got the best 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:35.880 food the bottom. Don't one's saying that it's not good 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:40.280 because the local Chinese joint is good, the local the 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:45.320 local bodega is good, the local pizza shop, the local 0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:48.440 chicken joint. I'm not taking away anything from them. And 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:50.560 by the way, even if I did, people are not 0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:55.280 gonna stop and I eat it, tear it up. What 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:58.000 I am saying is that we all know that we're 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.400 when we go to these places, we are going to 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:04.720 grade down in terms of what we're gonna get from 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:09.160 a cleanly perspective. But now, if you got the rats 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:13.160 running around in the food, it concerns me because when 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.800 you and and by the way, just so we make 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:19.240 it clear, the local spots might be have issues, but 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:26.600 there's some major restaurants, these fancy is all around um 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:30.400 and being stored in the basement. They say, that's the 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:34.360 worst place. That's not the most place where I see rats. 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.800 So when you tell me when you go downtown with 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.120 all of the top made, when we walk outside of 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:42.240 those restaurants, it won't be thirty and forty rats running 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:46.720 down all the time? Are you kidding me that I 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.680 know exactly where you're talking about and that particular area, 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.760 I just can't. I mean, again, it would be, it 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.280 would be very it would be it would be perceived 0:11:56.559 --> 0:12:01.320 in a very discriminatory way if we talked about who 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:05.000 is located in that dish. But I'm just trying to 0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:07.680 tell you it's a bunch of rats, all those those 0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:13.400 spots below thirty four, strewn on those blocks Fifth Avenue 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.080 and all that. When you come out of those restaurants, 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:19.560 it is rats. Yeah, it is. Okay. I'm not saying, 0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:22.280 oh no, no, you're not. I'm not sitting here making 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:26.679 the case that there's not as many rats downtown. That's 0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.839 not what I'm saying. I'm saying that even and I'm 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:30.959 not just talking about down there. I'm saying that even 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:34.719 at Sylvia's right in Harlem because of the way they 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.720 keep the restaurant there. I've actually I've never and I 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.440 know the rats all around there, but I have never 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.599 walked out and had a rat running outside of Sylvia's 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:47.600 because they keep it super clean. They got the garbage 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:49.560 a certain type of way. So we're not talking about 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:51.800 black restauranes, so people won't be like, oh, you think 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.959 white establishments. I'm saying that. I'm saying that there are 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:59.480 certain if they don't keep their their garbage together and 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:03.720 and more over, which we should really be saying a 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:07.199 lot of these places just because of the mere fact 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.480 that they're in the hood, they don't try to take 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.720 care of their restaurant and the grounds and the outside. 0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:15.720 They pour grease on the ground, which is a problem 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:18.800 because the grease is clearly it has the seasoning and 0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:22.760 the smell of whatever in it. It's attracting things. It's nasty. 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.400 We already have dealt with roaches and seemed like roaches 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.319 the roaches go away because I don't see roach. I 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.920 see water bugs, but I don't see roaches. But what 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.400 I'm all I'm saying to you is be aware because 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.000 if you are buying food from Uber eats and door 0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:38.600 dash and those types of places. You don't know what 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:41.720 you're getting. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, but I know, 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:47.400 I'm just telling you you never meant that. Well, now 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.360 it's starting to see all the things you don't know 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:54.640 the card most of these people you don't even knowing. 0:13:54.800 --> 0:13:58.600 It's nasty. I am cooking more because no, because how 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.520 about no? I bet you know. So listen, we don't 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:06.000 have the time today to get deeply into Tyree Nichols man. 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:11.520 I mean bro like yo, like I know people who 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:15.840 are experiencing serious trauma, like at work and everything. My 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:19.160 friend told me the other day, I actually Jamie Um. 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:21.920 She told me that they held they held like a 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.280 a grief session during work because people are so like 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.640 emotionally drained that you gotta go to work after you 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:30.880 watch the lynching, like people cannot. It is this is 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:35.040 too much, it's too much. But what I I did 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.840 want to focus on one particular part, and I feel 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:41.280 so sorry for that man's family and just his daughter. 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:44.480 Like people, I mean, these people have kids and I 0:14:44.560 --> 0:14:46.720 and I have to be honest with you, you know, 0:14:46.960 --> 0:14:50.000 I feel sorry for the families of five people that 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:53.600 made the most not more than five. What we're up 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:56.200 to like seven eight people at this point. Matter of fact, 0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:58.080 it's more than that because you got the what we 0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:01.920 said the MS work is, then you have the all 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:05.920 the officers. So all of these black people that were involved. 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:10.360 I am going to say today that I want to believe, 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:15.000 and this is my thought that I have been struggling 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:20.280 with and trying to process. I want to believe that 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:26.480 those black people, I think the numbers about seven, that 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:30.680 none of them had a mama that taught them that 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:35.280 ship or that would agree with what they did. I 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.920 want to believe that they black mama, black daddy, doesn't 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:44.400 matter where dad maybe not in the house, maybe away whatever, 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.200 wherever he may be. I still want to believe that 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.040 even a mama, daddy whoever, because we you know nowadays 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:52.680 it could be mom, dad whoever in prison, I want 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:56.320 to believe that that parent who might be locked up, 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.720 even in that situation, is calling their child saying what 0:15:59.800 --> 0:16:03.320 the hell was that? Why would you be involved? What 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:06.960 are you doing? I just need to believe that that 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:12.440 they were not raised, especially down in Memphis, by parents 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:16.600 and a family that supports that type of behavior. Their 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:23.120 entire family structure has been completely ripped apart because of 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:28.840 AID and because of a need to uphold white supremacy 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:33.960 and a need to feel validated by abusing other people, 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:37.560 maybe because they feel that there they don't have value. 0:16:37.600 --> 0:16:39.600 I don't know what it is, but the self hatred 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.560 and what that has now caused, it's it kills me. 0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:48.040 It was it was a gang assault. It was it 0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:52.000 was a gang assault. And to not not identify the 0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:56.280 police as a gag, right, It's just it's not being honest. 0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:59.080 And we and we could say there are good cops, 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:01.520 we can say all these things, but there's a structure 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:06.399 within the police system that makes you believe that it 0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:10.040 feeds into the narrative that black people are dangerous, right, So, 0:17:10.240 --> 0:17:13.240 and even when you tell other black people that, right, 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:18.000 and they feel like they're protected by this system that 0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:20.960 has always protected them, that have we not seen this 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:23.960 on camera? Like the only reason that we we've got 0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:29.000 justice in any situation is we had pure video. And 0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.440 even times when we've had video, we didn't get justice. 0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:37.600 So this is a system that makes even black people 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:41.240 who go into the system believe that you can get 0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:44.840 away with harming a black person. All you have to 0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:47.040 do is say that you feel like your life is 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.199 a gey. All you have to do is say that 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:52.320 they resisted the rest because these are the narratives that 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:54.600 have been painted about us, that we are hard, we 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:57.840 are dangerous, that your life is always in jeopardy when 0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.840 you interact. You can be a kid it that's ten 0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:03.159 years old, or you can be a man that's forty. 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:07.080 You can be a woman who's who who actually composed 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:10.960 no threat, and they can use the same story over 0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:15.200 and over to to have no accountability for taking your life. 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.600 So this is what the system and what the structures, 0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:20.399 and these men fell into that you know, they felt 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:22.879 that whatever reason, they pulled that man over and them 0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:26.600 chasing him, and they because we don't know, we don't know. 0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:29.280 There's so many people that want to spread and until 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:32.760 family members and to its, until people that I know 0:18:32.840 --> 0:18:37.000 and respect can say this, this has been substantiated, we 0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:42.199 are sure these things prior relationship. Because I'm just so tired. 0:18:42.640 --> 0:18:46.159 I've watched listen to me, I've been paying attention to 0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:49.560 social media, and I've watched social media create so many 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:53.000 narratives or if one person tweeted, well what if this happened? 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.600 And then what happens is people saw spreading memes and 0:18:56.640 --> 0:18:59.880 people saw spreading means and they create this whole thing, 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:03.080 and I mean it becomes real because remember that woman 0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:08.120 that uh was in the video attack and Champwhilla Robinson, 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:11.040 there was about a good three weeks of her being 0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:14.480 trans like they was just she's a trans woman. She 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.840 you know, and nobody has to now now, you know, 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:22.199 not to say that she's not. She could be. I 0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:24.520 don't know, but I do not think so. And it's 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:29.280 highly unlikely. And it is also based upon um Tyree 0:19:29.400 --> 0:19:33.360 Nichols family. Highly unlikely that you don't as a family members, 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:35.560 Mom and daddy don't always know what you was doing, 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:37.560 you know, when you was doing what she was doing. 0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:41.359 They always know. But they're saying it's not true, that 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:43.600 this story is not true, and they don't have to 0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:46.000 be true because the police beat up on people all 0:19:46.000 --> 0:19:49.879 the time time, especially black people. So you know, stop 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:56.680 stop stop looking for something to justify and substantial people people. 0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:58.720 That's what we always do. Well, let me see the 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:00.760 rest of the film. You can see and puts him 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.720 in the face. He ain't got his hands are He's like, please, please, well, 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:06.240 let me see what caused them to do it. There's 0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:08.399 nothing that could cause you to just be punching and 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:11.160 kicking or something. I don't need to see nothing else. 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:13.480 If a man is sitting there stomping a woman out 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:15.160 and she well, I want to know what she did 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.600 for me, I don't even know all of that. You 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:20.000 know what I'm saying, that's not I don't understand the 0:20:20.080 --> 0:20:23.560 mindset that comes with the need to know what has 0:20:23.600 --> 0:20:27.840 happened before someone has been violated, like the world they 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.639 or they citizen, Well, you know she said this or 0:20:30.840 --> 0:20:33.720 he said that. So no, there's no justification when I 0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:38.000 look at those things. I know that the handbook policing 0:20:38.560 --> 0:20:43.080 that ain't in the handbook even if he did do 0:20:43.200 --> 0:20:47.439 whatever whatever. Once you're no longer a threat, once you 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:49.919 are no longer a threat, once you are physically not 0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:52.240 a threat and you can't harm someone, and you can 0:20:52.280 --> 0:20:56.280 see that, there's no justification for you continue to abuse it. 0:20:56.400 --> 0:20:58.760 But can I ask you a question. Our police officers 0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:01.720 allowed to just punch people? Well, I'm serious, Like, is 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:05.560 that a part of the tactic punching? Actually, I'm I'm 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:12.200 under the impression that if you that police officers, if 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:15.879 they feel threatened. They don't punch their taste or shoot. 0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:24.560 It's legal lucive. Maybe they maybe they maybe those units 0:21:24.560 --> 0:21:28.480 are like the scorpions. And my thing is those things violate. 0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:35.080 You're right when you punch me in my face if 0:21:35.119 --> 0:21:37.919 I'm not harming you, and there's no need for you 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.760 to punch me. There's no need for you to punch 0:21:40.840 --> 0:21:42.640 me in my face. So if I hit you as 0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:45.439 an officer, is it just do whatever you gotta do. 0:21:46.000 --> 0:21:49.040 I'm not saying, I'm asking you, is that sometimes you're 0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:52.800 reflexing so they could justify and say, well, this person 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:55.160 hit me, so that was a natural reflex. So you're 0:21:55.160 --> 0:21:57.840 not supposed to have a reflex, And that's what they're 0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:01.119 saying you. You can't have a reflex. They can grab you, 0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:04.280 push your your your face to the ground, be breaking 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:06.160 your arm and you you pull up and the wait 0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:08.880 way you're hurting me. You're resisting the rest, so now 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:13.119 they can impose more harm on you. It's not even 0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:16.200 these things don't even make comments sense. There's no way 0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:18.120 that you gonna grab me and me pulling my motherfucking 0:22:18.200 --> 0:22:21.000 shoulder out the socket and not expect me to try 0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:23.919 to straighten my shoulder because you don't hurt me and 0:22:23.960 --> 0:22:25.840 turn around and get off the floor because you got 0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:29.000 my my face in the ground and applies. He said, 0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:32.480 it hurts. That's why it's a simple. And why won't 0:22:32.520 --> 0:22:35.359 you just stay still? Because I can't because it hurts. Hurts, 0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:38.000 you know what I'm saying. So I don't. I don't 0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:42.960 know what these policies and procedures are. The policies and 0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:49.320 procedures are not working. That's what I know. No man 0:22:49.400 --> 0:22:52.360 of any level account they want to protect his life. 0:22:52.400 --> 0:22:54.760 That's over before. So y'all donna have to find something else. 0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:57.439 I got the stuff back on my hand. That's the 0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:00.480 white I bet you're gonna leave that white below. Oh 0:23:00.520 --> 0:23:02.800 I know that thing had me choke and it went 0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:07.200 through my hand to my nose. Listen, man, listen, r 0:23:07.280 --> 0:23:14.080 I p to tree and all the tyre's yes. Well, 0:23:14.760 --> 0:23:17.200 I don't know how you go to the guests from 0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:23.080 well we go, we go from laughing the crime, that's right. Listen. 0:23:23.119 --> 0:23:25.440 People are mad at me now because I posted a 0:23:25.520 --> 0:23:29.440 video the other day of this guy in his argument 0:23:29.480 --> 0:23:32.480 with God, and he is cussing guard out like he's 0:23:32.520 --> 0:23:36.200 so tired and so mad and so seeing everything. Of course, 0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:38.560 the cuss words is a lot. Of course, you never 0:23:38.640 --> 0:23:42.320 called God out of his or her name. I get it. 0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:45.200 But he's not talking to God. He's talking to us, 0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:48.560
