To people, 338 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 3: I don't want them to just think of me of 339 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 3: a set of problems or a person that you know, 340 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 3: is constantly depressed and disasterbating. And there's people for that. 341 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 3: There's people that are out there spreading the word and 342 00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 3: constantly given their you know. 343 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: And you need those people out there. 344 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 4: But it's not part of me and my like me 345 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 4: and my personality that would drive me insane. So you 346 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 4: need the people out there on the forefront. And it's 347 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 4: constantly doing that. But for me, I have the option 348 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 4: of tapping in and tapping out. And it's just one 349 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 4: of those things where life itself is depressing. I mean, 350 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 4: like if you really start looking at life itself. So 351 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 4: I have a tendency to look at the enjoyable things 352 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 4: in life, the fun things in life, the funny things 353 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 4: in life, and realize that life is a lot bigger 354 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 4: than that and realize that you can't stay stuck there. 355 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 4: So that's one thing I do love and enjoy about 356 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 4: our show that even in sad situations, funny shit does happen, 357 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 4: But you have to look at it from that perspective. 358 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 3: Right kJ Donald says, as I get older, I find 359 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: I need to get on social media less and less. 360 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 3: The fuckery gets a little much. Sometimes it's good to 361 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 3: disconnect and refresh sometimes. Bridgtin Rond says, my biggest problem 362 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 3: is that I cannot stop myself from reading the comments 363 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: section of online articles. Oh man, So even when it 364 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 3: is a good story, I end up going through a 365 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: negative experience. Social media isn't a problem because I came 366 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 3: to my accounts that I never have to encourage ignorant 367 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 3: in kind of ignorant fucks. But in the comments section, 368 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: anything goes. You wouldn't believe some of the arguments that 369 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 3: I've had on the most blame boring stories. Once once, 370 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: I once there was a discussion about the legacy of 371 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 3: MLK and the comment section of an article detailing Derek 372 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 3: Rose's knee surgery. 373 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: Damn them to do with each other? 374 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 3: I stopped reading comments about a while ago, but gotlure 375 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 3: back in with the Ray Rice incident because I felt 376 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 3: I had to speak out against the fuckery. 377 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think. 378 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 4: And when it comes to social media, Twitter and Facebook, 379 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 4: they are two separate experiences. 380 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: Like I've realized that. 381 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 4: For a lot of people Twitter, you still have fucking 382 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 4: on Twitter, but Twitter is more of you can kind 383 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 4: of filter. 384 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: You can you can feture on Facebook too, but it's 385 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: a little different. With Twitter. 386 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 4: You can kind of filter, block, mute and things like that. 387 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 4: On Facebook, it's one of those things where because people 388 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 4: can comment on other people's shit, you can kind of 389 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 4: see it and it all kind of blends down your timeline. 390 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: And I think a lot of people on Facebook are 391 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 4: very not all, but some people on Facebook very ignorant 392 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 4: to a lot of shit, and they'll just put shit 393 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 4: out there and you're like, Wow, I cannot believe you're 394 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 4: just this dumb and this idiotic. And I think a 395 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 4: lot of times, like I said before, people on Facebook, 396 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 4: a lot of people on Facebook are people's real life 397 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 4: friends with On Twitter, a lot of people you follow 398 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 4: interact with, y'all might not see each other over that 399 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 4: over every day, or the interaction is a different interaction, 400 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 4: so I think the experiences are different from me. I 401 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: don't read comment sections too fast because I know it 402 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 4: ain't nothing in there, but fuck we And I think 403 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 4: sometimes you can be your own worst enemy by by 404 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 4: doing things like that. Sometimes you just have to take 405 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 4: a break and stay away. 406 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm off of message boards and comment sections, and 407 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,360 Speaker 3: I know people that are on message boards they kind 408 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 3: of look at that as some type of weird cop 409 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 3: out or whatever, But that's just how invasive that shit is. 410 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 3: It makes you feel like people that leave are somehow 411 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 3: like abandoning you or too weak or something. But I 412 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 3: got off of it when I needed to be productive 413 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 3: for myself. Like this podcast is a huge part of 414 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 3: why I don't do message boards, why I don't do 415 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 3: comment section because you spend to waste. You waste a 416 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 3: lot of energy on that stuff. Even when there's a 417 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 3: Facebook thread and it delves into like an argument and stuff, 418 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 3: I'll bring it up on the show, but it's not 419 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 3: a constant on my page. Like I don't like to 420 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,479 Speaker 3: do that, and I typically end up unfriending people or 421 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 3: ignoring them, muting them because I for my own mental health, 422 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 3: which I think is something that we don't really value 423 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 3: or discuss sometimes because of the machismo of it, especially 424 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 3: for men, it's like, you know, you weak ass nigga. 425 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 5: You don't want to argue all day. It's not good, 426 00:20:58,280 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 5: it's not healthy. 427 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 3: And now it's weird because when I've talked to people 428 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 3: that are on message boards that ar you all day, 429 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 3: I kind of check out on them sometimes because it's 430 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 3: just a message board argument. They don't realize they've been 431 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: having this debate, this discussion with people constantly for a 432 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 3: long period of time, and that you know, they're like, 433 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 3: it's just it's never gonna end, and it's just constantly 434 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: this negativity that you're always trudging through and it can't 435 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 3: exhaust you. 436 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 4: Man. 437 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 3: I didn't realize how much I didn't care or didn't 438 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 3: need message boards or anything like that until I was 439 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 3: off of it. Same thing with comment sections, until I 440 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,719 Speaker 3: just was like, yeah, I'm not gonna argue with these people. 441 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 3: It's like a switch flip, and it was hard to 442 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: go back. Like every once in a while, you know, 443 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 3: we'll get hits on our site like hey, and it's 444 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 3: like this site recommended you, or there was a link 445 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 3: clicked on this site to get to you. And if 446 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 3: it's form a message board, sometimes I click on them, 447 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 3: go on what were they saying? It's almost never good, 448 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like, even if it's like 449 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 3: a person that's a fan of us gonna hate check 450 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 3: out this show, they did a really good thing about whatever, 451 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 3: within a few second comments, it'll be somebody saying some 452 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 3: petty shit. You know, it'll be somebody or I don't 453 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 3: like that motherfucker, or I hate their voices, or I 454 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 3: do blah blah blah. And you're like, that's the kind 455 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 3: of negativity that constantly exists on that shit, and there's 456 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: no reason to subject yourself to it. You know, I'm 457 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 3: not gonna act like I'm above anybody because I used 458 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 3: to do it for years, So I'm not even gonna 459 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 3: be like, you need to get off of that shit. 460 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 5: It's easier said than done, I definitely understand. 461 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 3: But when I'll just say, as a testimony for myself, 462 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 3: when I got off it totally made me feel better, 463 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. 464 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, And also I think a lot of it is 465 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 4: just the difference in people's personality. I never got on 466 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 4: a message board because I really didn't know what the 467 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 4: hell they were or anything like that. Like, so my 468 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 4: internet experience is a little different. And on top of that, 469 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 4: a lot of people own message boards. They lived that life, 470 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 4: and sometimes people in real life you'd be like, motherfucker, 471 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: you sound goddamn insane. This is not the fucking message board. 472 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 4: I am a person. Talk to me like I'm a 473 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 4: human being. Don't come to me with these made up 474 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 4: fucking talking points argument just for the sake of argument. 475 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 4: Because I've seen people argue like they're on message boards. 476 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 4: I was like, y'all need to kill that bullshit because 477 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 4: it's dumb. 478 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 3: I can even tell, like my friends that I've made 479 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 3: but that stay on the message board, that come from 480 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 3: the message board, like sometimes the conversations they have, they 481 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 3: don't recognize it because it's just message board talk.

Yeah, 680 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 3: we talked about that. The major frustration I've had these 681 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 3: past couple of weeks outside the terrible FPD handling of 682 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: this case is the amount of decided ignorance from all people, black, white, whatever. 683 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 3: I have the same Internet access as everybody else, and 684 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 3: I've done my fair share of digging through rumors to 685 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 3: find as much as I can about what happened that 686 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 3: day and ferguson. But when I checked Facebook and any 687 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 3: other social media, you can clearly see that people have 688 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 3: decided to not research anything but still comment right, well, 689 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 3: welcome to the Internet. I've had some of my black 690 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 3: friends call out for prayer, totally disregarding the fact that 691 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 3: the tanks were brought to the first prayer vigil after 692 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 3: the shooting. I've seen white friends side with the Mike 693 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 3: Brown rush the cop argument, totally ignoring the fact that 694 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 3: our witnesses said he had his hands up. This whole 695 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 3: ordeal has shown me that even in the even the 696 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 3: stations I watched, like MSNBC, will choose the air images 697 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 3: that further hurt a black person and their family, but 698 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 3: will discuss the good traits of a guy who shot 699 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: up in elementary school. 700 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 5: Man, you know what's funny, Man. 701 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 3: I was talking to Chris from the Sandy Check about 702 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 3: this movie trailer reviews out there. I was talking to 703 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 3: him about this on Twitter, and we kind of like 704 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 3: got to a point where we just kind of disagreed. 705 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 3: But the media is in a fact gathering mode right now. 706 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 3: I think maybe in a few months, maybe we'll see 707 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 3: investigative journalism that actually sorts out the lies from the 708 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 3: truth and all that stuff. But right now, they're kind 709 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 3: of just anybody that's willing to report what's happening on 710 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 3: the ground they're listening to, and that includes the police. 711 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 3: Right so, I think we're getting a lot of what 712 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 3: us as viewers and people who are paying attention to 713 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 3: the story are like, that's misinformation, the police are lying, 714 00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 3: the police are full of shit on this topic or whatever. 715 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 3: I think they're presenting those the police, and they're also 716 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 3: presenting the people who are going, that's bullshit. They will 717 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 3: people ease allont uh. They're also presenting the people who 718 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 3: are going, hey, there's right. 719 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 4: You know. 720 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 3: The police are like, there's riots out here, we got 721 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 3: to stop it. They're messing up the stuff. And then 722 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 3: there's people that are in the crowd that are like, 723 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 3: well that's a small percentage of people, or we're protecting 724 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 3: the stores ourselves. They're reporting it all. They're not like, 725 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 3: to me, This is kind of what the news should be, 726 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 3: which is you report everything and hopefully at one point 727 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 3: someone will sort all this out and go, here's the 728 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 3: here's the truth as much as we can tell it 729 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 3: as when it was happening, you know what I mean, 730 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 3: which might take months because you have to investigate it. 731 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 3: You can't just come up arbitrarily. And a lot of 732 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 3: us are biased. We don't want to admit it, but 733 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 3: we're biased. 734 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: Of course. 735 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,800 Speaker 3: We don't give a fuck about other shit. Like even 736 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 3: if someone did throw a mono top cocktail at the police, 737 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 3: we don't care, sure don't. We're like, that's doesn't justify 738 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 3: what you guys did, and they wouldn't throw it if 739 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 3: your ass wasn't there, right, So we already are biased. 740 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 3: But if we can't admit that that we're not really 741 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 3: being honest about what the media's job should be. The 742 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: media's job shouldn't be to not hurt a black person 743 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 3: and their family their feelings. And I've seen them a SNBC. 744 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 3: They've talked about the positives with Mike Brown, you know, 745 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 3: I've seen that, But I also seen when they talk 746 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 3: to the police, the police are going, this is the 747 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 3: negatives about Mike Brown, so they can justify what they 748 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 3: did that like they're presenting it all I don't want, 749 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 3: Like to me, if I wanted a bias media that 750 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 3: told me what to think, I just watched Fox News. 751 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 3: You know, like MBC and CNN are trying to present 752 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 3: as broad a case as they can. 753 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 4: You know, they're trying to give you as much information 754 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 4: as they can, right, And it could be but they 755 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 4: give you as much information. 756 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:04,280 Speaker 3: Right if you're tuned in, you'll probably see the angles 757 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 3: and figure it out for yourself for the most part. 758 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 3: But the reason you have access to a lot of 759 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 3: information is because of them, even the independent people that 760 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: are on the ground. They were bringing those people on 761 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 3: the interview on right like this is like to me, 762 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: they're doing a good job, and I think some of 763 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 3: us just desire more because you know, we've made up 764 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 3: our minds about what happened and what the response should be, 765 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 3: and which facts are relevant and which ones aren't. We've 766 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 3: made up our minds, but that the media's jobs not 767 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 3: to make up their minds. And this is the closest 768 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 3: they've done to a good job on something like this 769 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 3: that I've seen. Honestly, If you. 770 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,800 Speaker 1: Agree or disagree, that they're giving you information. 771 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, the bigger problem I have with the media is 772 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 3: something that goes beyond presenting both sides blah blah blah 773 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 3: all this shit. It's when they bring on these people 774 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 3: to argue the stuff. That's what I don't like. Like, 775 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,359 Speaker 3: I don't think Larry Elder needs to be brought in 776 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 3: to discuss anything about this, Like there's nothing relevant he 777 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 3: has to say about it. He's not gonna put boots 778 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 3: on the ground, he's not interested in helping anybody. He's 779 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 3: not even interested in what happened. But they'll bring him on. 780 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 3: They'll have him argue with someone like Mark Lamont Hill or. 781 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 5: Whoever. They'll have him argue. 782 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 3: With Van Jones, and then for the amusement interest of 783 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 3: white people and for the ratings and for the clicks 784 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 3: and for you guys to retweet it and spread it around. 785 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 3: That sickens me. That's what sickens me. TA little quality 786 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 3: and Don Lemon arguing sickens me. Right, it's just so pointless. 787 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 3: It doesn't waste of time. And I'm glad that they 788 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 3: were squashing and all the shit, but it's still with 789 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 3: five pointless minutes of ego checking on national TV for 790 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 3: no reason at all. So it's shit like that that 791 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 3: gets under my skin because the undercurrent is that these 792 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 3: people don't really care about us or just at that point, 793 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 3: those are things they do to promote themselves and to 794 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 3: promote their network and to get the most clickable video 795 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 3: that day.

I mean, 1007 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 3: this is what the show is about, and it might 1008 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 3: not be a popular opinion, but I'm And it's the 1009 00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 3: same thing I said about Trayvon. I don't know what happened. 1010 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 3: I don't think we'll ever get to know. 1011 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,320 Speaker 4: Nope, because so much stuff has been tainted and so much, 1012 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 4: so many to my person, so many lives have been told, 1013 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 4: so many things have been covered up, so much of 1014 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,839 Speaker 4: the police officers have fucked up with a lot of shit. 1015 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 4: So it's one of those things where even if we're 1016 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 4: quote unquote presenting all the evidence, we really don't know 1017 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 4: if it's all the evidence. 1018 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think a lot of us are biased. 1019 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 3: I know, I am. We see things, we see what 1020 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 3: we want to see, you know, and we're not gonna 1021 00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 3: admit that because I think, you know, we're justifiably by 1022 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:15,320 Speaker 3: us to some extent, but we're not impartial. So basically, 1023 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 3: what I'm saying is there's a scenario where if, if, 1024 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 3: if he really did charge him and all this shit, 1025 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,359 Speaker 3: it's possible, and if that's what's proven in the court 1026 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 3: of law, that's what's proven. The problem I have is 1027 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 3: that there's no due process on this ship. That's my problem. 1028 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 3: I never have a problem because I did it. We're 1029 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 3: gonna catch someone murdering somebody in cold blood. This is 1030 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:41,239 Speaker 3: very low. 1031 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 5: It's so hard to prove, you know, the evidence that 1032 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:46,879 Speaker 5: we see. 1033 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 3: We're gonna take it, and we're gonna because we already 1034 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 3: have our suspicions. I think the cops have rightfully made 1035 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 3: us suspicious was holding certain information by trying to play 1036 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 3: this case out publicly, with taining my Brown's image and 1037 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 3: all this stuff, with stuff that wasn't relevant necessarily to 1038 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,359 Speaker 3: the idea of this is what happened, you know, like 1039 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:13,879 Speaker 3: you know, because like people are like, well, they show 1040 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 3: the tape to show that, you know, the tape of 1041 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,880 Speaker 3: the strong on ribery, because it shows that maybe he 1042 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 3: was on edge when the police approached him, and maybe 1043 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 3: that is relevant to a court of law. But you're 1044 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 3: talking about a protest. It's not gonna make people go home. Nope, 1045 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 3: it's only gonna make them more mad, right, And it's 1046 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff that the callousness to just lack 1047 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 3: of foresight that at every turn that you want to 1048 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 3: give anyone a benefit of the doubt, you're just not 1049 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,919 Speaker 3: gonna be able to. But at the end of the day, 1050 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 3: I don't know what happened, And it would take a 1051 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 3: it would take a huge leap for me personally to 1052 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 3: feel like Darren Wilson woke up that morning and was like, 1053 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 3: I want to kill a unarmed black man. That's what 1054 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,319 Speaker 3: I want to do today. It takes a huge leap 1055 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 3: for me to believe it. You know, I think for 1056 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 3: some people it doesn't matter, and there's no empathy of 1057 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 3: sympathy towards that shit. 1058 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 5: And I understand I'm not gonna fight you on it. 1059 00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,320 Speaker 3: But for me personally, I don't I believe that something 1060 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,480 Speaker 3: went horribly wrong for him to even do some shit 1061 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:28,840 Speaker 3: like that, even if it was a loss of control. 1062 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 3: Even if it was he got punched in the face 1063 00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:34,839 Speaker 3: and he did that shit, you know, who knows, who 1064 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 3: knows what it was. The problem I have is that 1065 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:41,840 Speaker 3: will never know, yes, because it is so fucking covered 1066 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 3: up and just misheadled. 1067 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 4: And that's the problem that I have, and that's why 1068 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 4: I have a lot of distrust for everything that they're saying. 1069 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, So that's my main issue here and that will 1070 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 3: continue to be the issue that I have. People that say, 1071 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,800 Speaker 3: you know, what's obviously what happened. I don't know this 1072 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 3: obviously what happened. 1073 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:01,240 Speaker 5: I don't. 1074 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 3: I'm mad that I don't know that because they never 1075 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 3: treated this as a thing that needed to be investigated. 1076 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 1: And that's the problem, and that's what made people mad. 1077 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 4: And it's very frustrating when you talk to people and 1078 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 4: they want to bypass why are they mad, It's like, motherfucker, 1079 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 4: we're mad because you're not treating this like a crime happened. 1080 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. 1081 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,319 Speaker 3: Darren Wilson at some point stopped being a cop became 1082 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:26,800 Speaker 3: a criminal. 1083 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 5: I don't know. I honestly don't know. 1084 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 3: I know we got our witnesses, I know we got 1085 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,239 Speaker 3: I mean, it's so much shit that just just got 1086 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 3: so mishandled, man, and I'm just so sick of it 1087 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 3: always being us when this ship gets treated this way, 1088 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. You just don't have these 1089 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:51,400 Speaker 3: stories of innocent, not even unarmed, white kids being shot 1090 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 3: down in the fucking middle of the street and then 1091 00:52:54,960 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 3: nobody cares, no investigation, no police that don't interview witnesses. 1092 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 5: You just don't have these stories. And that is what 1093 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 5: I think. 1094 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:08,360 Speaker 3: The culmination of a lot of this is the culmination 1095 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 3: of those feelings for all of us, and that's what 1096 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 3: it's about. Every time it happens, it just piles on. 1097 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 3: I don't know that every single black person that's been 1098 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,919 Speaker 3: shot by the police is unwarranted. I don't know that 1099 00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 3: every officer is justified in shooting or not shooting. I 1100 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,320 Speaker 3: just know that if we treat it like it shouldn't 1101 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 3: be looked into, which is what a lot of the 1102 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 3: other side of this is, then we've already lost We've 1103 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:38,879 Speaker 3: already lost our humanity, We've already lost our empathy. If 1104 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 3: we just give up the idea that hey, that's just 1105 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 3: what's supposed to happen. Black people are supposed to get 1106 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,399 Speaker 3: killed by the cops, Why is it a big deal? 1107 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 4: You know, right, And that's what makes people upset. It's 1108 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 4: just for the fact that anybody gets shot by the cops. 1109 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 4: This should be in turn investigation, period. But because you've 1110 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 4: got to see what happened. And I think also the 1111 00:53:58,200 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 4: thing that makes a lot of people upset is that 1112 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 4: whenever these situations happened, it's like you get paid leave 1113 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 4: and it's like, Okay, if anybody else committed the crime 1114 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,880 Speaker 4: I mean not committed to well, well, yeah, committed a 1115 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 4: crime at their job or was suspect and committed to crime, 1116 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 4: they wouldn't get paid leave of absent. Yeah, you can 1117 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 4: sit your ass home, but you'd be sitting at home broke. 1118 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. Like, I don't know the studies. I haven't looked 1119 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,319 Speaker 3: at the stats. I'm sure there's black people they get 1120 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 3: shot or beat up, brutalized by the cops. It doesn't 1121 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,919 Speaker 3: you know, like the dude who you know Ferguson PD 1122 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 3: beat up and then charge with getting blood on their 1123 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:39,319 Speaker 3: clothes from the beating that they gave him while he 1124 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 3: was in jail for a crime he didn't commit. They 1125 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 3: actually had the wrong person. It didn't even matter that 1126 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 3: this guy went to court. It didn't matter that he 1127 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 3: sued them. 1128 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:50,600 Speaker 5: Nope. 1129 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 3: The most he could get was let out of jail 1130 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 3: and the charges dropped. But he didn't. They didn't pay 1131 00:54:56,239 --> 00:55:00,240 Speaker 3: for his bills. They were wrong, and it doesn't matter, 1132 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 3: you know. I saw Leslie and the Chat saying like 1133 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 3: they're killing people because they might be witnesses. I don't 1134 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 3: even think it matters in the court of law if 1135 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 3: you lead a person alive anymore. They don't care about 1136 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 3: black people. So in general, it's, yeah, well you got 1137 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:14,719 Speaker 3: fucked up. 1138 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 5: What is the police? What are you supposed to do? 1139 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:21,279 Speaker 3: You know? I really just think the fact that the 1140 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 3: disrespect for our deaths and us being the victims of shit, 1141 00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 3: it's so stupid, you know, like it's just so fucked 1142 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 3: up man. 1143 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 4: And yeah, we just want to be treated like human beings. 1144 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 4: It's like anybody else, that's all we demand. But when 1145 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 4: you look and you constantly see us being treated as 1146 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 4: celess than and not equal to, and investigations not being 1147 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 4: handled correctly, and you have to fight just to get 1148 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 4: shited investigated. 1149 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 1: Like that's the problem that people have. 1150 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 5: It's not black on black crime, it's not white on 1151 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:54,480 Speaker 5: black crimes. 1152 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:59,320 Speaker 3: It's anything on black right. People don't care it goes unresolved. 1153 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 3: People just act like it's not a big deal. It's 1154 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 3: less than in person. kJ Dollars says, I would like 1155 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,279 Speaker 3: to meet these black people who don't speak against black 1156 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 3: on black crime. I do not know even one. Yeah, yeah, 1157 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 3: black people, we're the only ones to care about black 1158 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 3: on black crime. You know. I really hate when people 1159 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 3: insinuate that during the discussion that we don't care. 1160 00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 1: Back to that changing the subject, bullshit, it's relevant. 1161 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 3: I have a friend who's moving to like the hood 1162 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 3: part of Charlotte because he found a good deal on 1163 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 3: the house, and he's basically gentrifying it. He was like, yeah, I'm. 1164 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 5: Gonna be living over here. You ever heard this place 1165 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 5: called Hidden Valley? 1166 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 3: I was like here, Oh no, right, like the hood? 1167 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:41,720 Speaker 5: Yeah?

Police don't care, they. 1185 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 3: Don't come out on time, politicians don't come They're like 1186 00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 3: a lot of people don't care about black on black. 1187 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 5: Crime, but none of them are black people. 1188 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:45,000 Speaker 3: Come on now, Prince Lawn says, firstly on episode seven 1189 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 3: sixty seven Country Grammar. Firstly, Bill Deblasio has a black 1190 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 3: wife and a grown black son with a giant afro, 1191 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:53,720 Speaker 3: and this dude is out here talking about resisting the rest. 1192 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,240 Speaker 3: I guess his wife had to give his son to talk. Yeah, 1193 00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 3: he was basically saying the reason black kids get killed 1194 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 3: by the cops is because they're resisting the rest, not 1195 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 3: because the cops are not. So we be doing the 1196 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 3: choke hold that's out all or anything like that. What 1197 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 3: I really want to talk about is this friend of 1198 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,520 Speaker 3: Darren Wilson that had to give his side the story. 1199 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 3: What pisses me off the most is when she wind 1200 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 3: about people only talking about one side of the story. 1201 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 3: The cops have been purposely avoiding putting out his side 1202 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 3: of the story. I wonder how the cops feel about 1203 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 3: this coming out. Any da worth of Daan will be 1204 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 3: sending a subpoena to anyone that Wilson may have told 1205 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 3: the story to. I imagine the cops going over their story, 1206 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 3: like Art going over that shooting with. 1207 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 5: Beth On Orphan Black.

This 1223 00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 3: is the problem with one of the celebrity support Sometimes 1224 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 3: you get this shit.

Episode seven sixty eight, which is 1230 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 3: the latest one changing the subject where we uh oh 1231 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 3: in the last one before this, we had justin know 1232 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 3: a lot of people enjoyed that and we covered you 1233 00:59:56,480 --> 01:00:01,720 Speaker 3: blood yes, So changing the subject was this Episode seven 1234 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 3: sixty eight brought up Ferguson and some of the Republicans 1235 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 3: that were talking about at black Republicans and shit. Now. 1236 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 5: La Joiners said, what's going on? 1237 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 3: Roder Caroon in addition to the content of that officer 1238 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 3: from Alabama, my home state unfortunately letter fucking with me. Yeah, 1239 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:23,680 Speaker 3: he wrote a letter to Ron Johnson basically reprimanded him 1240 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 3: and called it bullshit. Anyway, one thing that he conveniently 1241 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:30,919 Speaker 3: neglected to mention was that Mike with the Mike Brown 1242 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 3: situation is that there are mechanisms that have been implemented 1243 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,160 Speaker 3: by several police officers across this country to specifically and 1244 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 3: equally protect both the officers and citizens during police encounters. 1245 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 3: For examples, dashboard cameras have been put into record record 1246 01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 3: police stops by car to protect both parties. Police protocols 1247 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 3: such as when officers are the phone and backup, or 1248 01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:55,320 Speaker 3: when officers should pursue certain suspects by foot, or immediately 1249 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 3: reporting use of any weapon against civilians. All our mechanisms 1250 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 3: that are failable to ensure that police encounters go as 1251 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,720 Speaker 3: well as possible for all parties. So for me, when 1252 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 3: you have these police encounters where the officer completely neglects 1253 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 3: to use or follow that protocol, I just find it 1254 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:13,720 Speaker 3: really difficult to trust the word of the cops because 1255 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 3: when protocols followed and we don't have to spend so 1256 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,080 Speaker 3: much time ascitating the veracity of the cops word. We 1257 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 3: could just look at the facts, and in this situation, 1258 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 3: I'm certain that we'll never get a stronghold on the 1259 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 3: facts because the officers who had a chance to follow 1260 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 3: protocol and preserve these facts, for whatever reason, grossly ejectly 1261 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 3: neglected to So to me, that's a grave injustice in 1262 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 3: and of itself that should be punishable. Thanks is always peace, 1263 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 3: I agree. Kyle says, I don't know if people are 1264 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 3: tired of hearing about Ferguson, but I do know that 1265 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 3: the organizers down there are considering protesting less less at night. 1266 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 3: The abuseful the police are taking a mental physical toll 1267 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,959 Speaker 3: on the protesters.

It because you consider these people that 1361 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,880 Speaker 4: dress like this is less than, does not mean that 1362 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,640 Speaker 4: they deserve to be shot in the goddamn street. And 1363 01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 4: there's nothing you can do at the end of the 1364 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 4: day to change somebody that looks at the color of 1365 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 4: your skin and considers you a nigger. It does not 1366 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 4: matter what you have on or what you look like, 1367 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 4: if you have sneakers or if you have high top shoes, 1368 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:53,800 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. And that's the thing that's very frustrating 1369 01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:55,640 Speaker 4: when you talk to the people the company's god damn 1370 01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:57,040 Speaker 4: idiotic remarks like that. 1371 01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 3: So, yeah, there's some people that I think, you know, 1372 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 3: will still not be Unfortunately they you know, they're not 1373 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 3: gonna have any understanding and they're still gonna be very. 1374 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 5: Ridiculous about it. But I think for the most. 1375 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 3: Part, there's gonna be a ton of people that are 1376 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 3: black that share some issues. And this brought out a 1377 01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 3: lot of people that come from a lot of different paths, 1378 01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:30,439 Speaker 3: a lot of different class structures, but they understand this issue. 1379 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 5: And I hope we do galvanize something behind it. 1380 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 3: I would love to see at least some sort of 1381 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,000 Speaker 3: lobby formed or something, because a lot of this stuff 1382 01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 3: doesn't matter to people in power as long as you 1383 01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:48,960 Speaker 3: really have no no pull, like hey, here's a voting 1384 01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:53,760 Speaker 3: block that is up for grabs, you know. Like to me, honestly, 1385 01:07:54,880 --> 01:08:00,320 Speaker 3: as a black person, actor Ferguson, I would consider my 1386 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:04,919 Speaker 3: vote up for grabs more than ever, because true, I'm 1387 01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:09,760 Speaker 3: surprised by the few amount of Democrats that voiced anything, right, 1388 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 3: and a few amount of Republicans have voiced anything. The 1389 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 3: end up in the NRA not voicing anything, and party 1390 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:24,400 Speaker 3: not voicing anything. Whoever you think the next Democratic presidential 1391 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:29,519 Speaker 3: nominee is. They didn't say shit. So yeah, it's very 1392 01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:31,960 Speaker 3: you know, at this point, I would look at it like, 1393 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:34,960 Speaker 3: I'll guarantee a lot of black people feel like a 1394 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:38,719 Speaker 3: little bit disenfranchised, and this will be a good chance 1395 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 3: to organize a lot of those people to a voting 1396 01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 3: block and be like, hey, court my vote, show me 1397 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:45,680 Speaker 3: why I need to vote for you, because I know 1398 01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 3: why I voted for Obama. And I know and I'm 1399 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 3: not even saying because he's black, obviously that some people 1400 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:54,639 Speaker 3: voted only because he's black. But he has done things 1401 01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 3: for black people and poor people that other candidates haven't 1402 01:08:57,520 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 3: even come close to. 1403 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 5: But why should I vote for the next. 1404 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 3: Person because I don't see the reasoning and I don't 1405 01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 3: see the leadership. 1406 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:09,679 Speaker 4: So yeah, and how do I know if something else 1407 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:11,600 Speaker 4: was to happen that you would even dress it, you 1408 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 4: would even smoke on it. You would just let it 1409 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 4: be and continue doing your presidential duties. 1410 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:21,400 Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton is conspicuously absent on this right, conspicuously absent. 1411 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,960 Speaker 5: It's going on for fourteen days. Say something. 1412 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:28,639 Speaker 3: About that group life. I want to hear more because 1413 01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:30,719 Speaker 3: I haven't heard enough. I haven't heard about that police 1414 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:33,320 Speaker 3: report for the shooting. I ever heard the logic behind 1415 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 3: the racial makeup of the grand jury. Yeah, apparently there's 1416 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,559 Speaker 3: in a town where it's like some crazy like sixty 1417 01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:42,760 Speaker 3: seventy percent black. The grand jury is like nine white 1418 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,439 Speaker 3: people and three black people. Like, how to keep doing that? Amazing? 1419 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:46,960 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1420 01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:49,840 Speaker 5: I haven't heard the lodge behind the racial makeup of 1421 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:50,479 Speaker 5: a grand jury. 1422 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,000 Speaker 3: I want to hear more because whatever the outcome, I 1423 01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:54,680 Speaker 3: want to continue to educate myself on the. 1424 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 5: Law and the application of that law. 1425 01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:59,360 Speaker 3: I think, for me, at least, I settle back in 1426 01:09:59,360 --> 01:10:02,679 Speaker 3: to my comfortable surroundings and forget about the country at large, 1427 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 3: let alone the world. 1428 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 5: I want to see it through to the end. 1429 01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:07,240 Speaker 3: I want to stress that I don't find any joy 1430 01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 3: of entertainment value in this.

So like 1942 01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:40,920 Speaker 3: I can understand those celebrities and you know, being black people. Huh. 1943 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:43,920 Speaker 3: I'm not even talking about money. I can understand them 1944 01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:46,160 Speaker 3: just being like I don't want to deal with the 1945 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:49,799 Speaker 3: backlass true. You know, like I'm a black person and mentally, 1946 01:34:50,479 --> 01:34:53,800 Speaker 3: I don't want to deal with being called all these names. 1947 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:56,960 Speaker 3: I don't want to deal with, uh, the negativity that 1948 01:34:57,080 --> 01:34:58,439 Speaker 3: goes with this. I don't want to deal with my 1949 01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:01,840 Speaker 3: sponsors calling me. I don't want to deal with interviews 1950 01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:07,320 Speaker 3: about this. I just want to live my existence mentally healthy. 1951 01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,120 Speaker 3: And some of these dudes just ain't built for that fight. 1952 01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:14,040 Speaker 3: Now that being said, that's why I appreciate everybody that 1953 01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:17,160 Speaker 3: took their ass down there. Everybody did have a stance. 1954 01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 3: I appreciate the hell out of those people because you know, 1955 01:35:21,600 --> 01:35:24,600 Speaker 3: it matters, you know what I mean? So again, it 1956 01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:25,200 Speaker 3: does matter. 1957 01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:27,320 Speaker 6: I mean, I agree with you guys about you know, 1958 01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:30,200 Speaker 6: I definitely agree that celebrities are not the way to 1959 01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:33,719 Speaker 6: get any change done, just because that's not what they're 1960 01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:36,760 Speaker 6: here to do. There for entertainment and whatever fashion that 1961 01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:37,760 Speaker 6: they're interacting with us. 1962 01:35:37,800 --> 01:35:40,680 Speaker 2: But two things that I always. 1963 01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:43,360 Speaker 6: Feel is that one is that you know, yes, that's true. However, 1964 01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:46,360 Speaker 6: they do rely on our community to make their money 1965 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:49,160 Speaker 6: and to support them in their endeavors. So I feel 1966 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:51,400 Speaker 6: like there is a little bit of responsibility in terms 1967 01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:53,800 Speaker 6: of supporting us as well. And I'm not saying it 1968 01:35:53,880 --> 01:35:56,280 Speaker 6: has to be public or anything like that. I just 1969 01:35:56,439 --> 01:35:59,880 Speaker 6: think that this situation has gotten to a tipping point 1970 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:02,800 Speaker 6: in this country right now. It feels like that to me, 1971 01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:10,160 Speaker 6: and like I said, just the size of the silence 1972 01:36:10,479 --> 01:36:12,320 Speaker 6: is sort of deafening. 1973 01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:16,000 Speaker 3: Well let me ask you something, Leslie. But let me 1974 01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:20,200 Speaker 3: put it this way. With celebrities, we don't actually support them. 1975 01:36:21,520 --> 01:36:26,360 Speaker 3: We expect something. So I like, I don't buy Lebron 1976 01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:29,479 Speaker 3: James shoes if the niggas averaging three points. I don't 1977 01:36:29,560 --> 01:36:34,040 Speaker 3: want him on my TV if he can't dunk anymore, 1978 01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:36,960 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like, I don't really care 1979 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:39,080 Speaker 3: about him as a person. I don't go see a 1980 01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:40,080 Speaker 3: movie you feel like. 1981 01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:42,600 Speaker 6: We are expected to support And actually, I think I 1982 01:36:42,680 --> 01:36:44,240 Speaker 6: had this conversation with you. I don't know what you 1983 01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:46,360 Speaker 6: call about this thing where I feel guilty when I 1984 01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:48,200 Speaker 6: don't like something that a black person puts out, like 1985 01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:50,000 Speaker 6: I have this guilt, like I'm like, damn, I really 1986 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:52,960 Speaker 6: I said. I called it red tailing because I felt like, 1987 01:36:53,080 --> 01:36:55,519 Speaker 6: oh man, I just why do I I feel like 1988 01:36:55,560 --> 01:36:57,680 Speaker 6: I need to like it because I want to support them. 1989 01:36:58,040 --> 01:36:59,800 Speaker 6: Maybe everybody doesn't feeled that way, but that is how 1990 01:36:59,840 --> 01:37:01,960 Speaker 6: I feel like. I do, like I want to support 1991 01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:05,400 Speaker 6: black podcasters, I want to support black content, and I 1992 01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:07,680 Speaker 6: want like I have that feeling in me, And I 1993 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:09,320 Speaker 6: feel like a lot of black people feel that way. 1994 01:37:09,360 --> 01:37:12,960 Speaker 6: That we do want to support people that are doing 1995 01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:16,720 Speaker 6: things and in some way, at least in the public eye, 1996 01:37:16,800 --> 01:37:19,280 Speaker 6: representing us, whether we like that or not. And I 1997 01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 6: do also think that you cannot look to them not 1998 01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:24,760 Speaker 6: so distant, but certainly some so much distant past that 1999 01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:27,719 Speaker 6: people like Harry Belafonte and Ruby d and Ozzy Davis, 2000 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,920 Speaker 6: who they were celebrities, people expected stuff from them back 2001 01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:33,719 Speaker 6: and forth between people that were buying their content. However, 2002 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:38,040 Speaker 6: they felt strong enough to also have another side to 2003 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 6: them and who are our where's our Harry Belafonte. 2004 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:47,759 Speaker 3: And our Well we agree on we agree, we agree 2005 01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:52,760 Speaker 3: are on the fact that some people feel an attachment 2006 01:37:53,320 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 3: to supporting things that look like them. Right, But I'm 2007 01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:00,120 Speaker 3: saying I'm under no illusion, even as a podcast that 2008 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:03,320 Speaker 3: is sponsored by a lot of people who want to 2009 01:38:03,360 --> 01:38:06,920 Speaker 3: see a black person successful, if this podcast starts sucking, 2010 01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 3: nobody gonna give a fuck about that. So so, like, like, 2011 01:38:12,240 --> 01:38:15,679 Speaker 3: I think the big illusion with celebrity and with fame 2012 01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:19,000 Speaker 3: and all this shit is that there's somehow us supporting 2013 01:38:19,080 --> 01:38:22,000 Speaker 3: this person as a person. We don't really support them 2014 01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:25,320 Speaker 3: as a person. And even and like on a bigger level, 2015 01:38:25,680 --> 01:38:27,200 Speaker 3: one of the reasons they don't take a lot of 2016 01:38:27,280 --> 01:38:30,120 Speaker 3: stances is because they recognize it and they know that 2017 01:38:30,200 --> 01:38:32,439 Speaker 3: there's a ton of fucking other people that if they 2018 01:38:33,040 --> 01:38:36,400 Speaker 3: do see Lebron James talk about Ferguson, they go, oh, well, 2019 01:38:36,439 --> 01:38:39,040 Speaker 3: now I'm not getting these shoes, and now you know, 2020 01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:41,160 Speaker 3: now I don't want to get this jersey, and now 2021 01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:43,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to see Now I don't like this dude. 2022 01:38:44,360 --> 01:38:47,280 Speaker 3: And I'm just saying Lebron arbitrarily. But you know, just 2023 01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:50,960 Speaker 3: whoever there is like there is a certain understanding that 2024 01:38:52,439 --> 01:38:55,320 Speaker 3: it's as long as you are doing something that I 2025 01:38:55,439 --> 01:38:58,639 Speaker 3: am entertained by. So when someone like buys an album 2026 01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:01,960 Speaker 3: that they're buying because they're entertained by that music, not 2027 01:39:02,160 --> 01:39:05,679 Speaker 3: because you know, yeah, if that was the case, shit 2028 01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:07,080 Speaker 3: jacket edg will still be platinum. 2029 01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:08,960 Speaker 5: We don't care about Jaganeed's They music is. 2030 01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:12,719 Speaker 3: Wet so so so I But but that being said, 2031 01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:17,240 Speaker 3: I still think the reason we hold Harry Belafonte in 2032 01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:20,920 Speaker 3: such high esteem is because he takes the extra mile. 2033 01:39:21,439 --> 01:39:23,880 Speaker 3: And I think if we raised the bar to where 2034 01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:28,479 Speaker 3: we expected from everyone, then it kind of says like, well, everybody, 2035 01:39:29,080 --> 01:39:32,679 Speaker 3: Everyblafante is not really doing anything special. That's what we expect. 2036 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:35,160 Speaker 3: And I and for me personally, I don't want to 2037 01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:37,439 Speaker 3: draw that line. I would much rather be like, no, 2038 01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:41,120 Speaker 3: I'm impressed by Harry Belafonte because he goes the extra 2039 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:42,960 Speaker 3: mile and does ship that he don't have to do 2040 01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:47,320 Speaker 3: as opposed to I don't know, say Kobe Bryant, who 2041 01:39:47,400 --> 01:39:49,400 Speaker 3: might not want to take a stance on certain issues. 2042 01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:52,600 Speaker 3: I'm more impressed by Harry Belafonte, and I think we 2043 01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:57,120 Speaker 3: will and we do have certain people that have used 2044 01:39:57,120 --> 01:39:59,360 Speaker 3: that platform to raise awareness. 2045 01:40:00,680 --> 01:40:00,760 Speaker 4: Uh. 2046 01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:05,200 Speaker 3: You know, like I said, Killer Mike, it's funny his 2047 01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:07,640 Speaker 3: name is Killing Mike, but you know that dude is 2048 01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 3: somebody that speaks out, Chuck Chuck de speaks out.

I saw 2804 02:14:51,840 --> 02:14:55,400 Speaker 3: the video. Maybe I'm seeing it different than y'all. I 2805 02:14:55,520 --> 02:14:58,800 Speaker 3: still saw a dude menacingly coming towards the officers. I'm 2806 02:14:58,880 --> 02:15:03,160 Speaker 3: not sure what when people are saying that it's different, 2807 02:15:03,280 --> 02:15:06,760 Speaker 3: like what wasn't matching that they thought? 2808 02:15:07,360 --> 02:15:07,400 Speaker 2: What? 2809 02:15:07,880 --> 02:15:10,800 Speaker 3: Like what did he not have a knife and wasn't 2810 02:15:10,840 --> 02:15:14,320 Speaker 3: he coming towards the police? Like you know, I'm reasonable 2811 02:15:14,440 --> 02:15:19,640 Speaker 3: is all get out. I really don't know that you're 2812 02:15:20,080 --> 02:15:22,320 Speaker 3: gonna find too many people that won't pull the trigger 2813 02:15:22,400 --> 02:15:23,080 Speaker 3: in that situation. 2814 02:15:23,360 --> 02:15:25,640 Speaker 5: Like you know, I don't understand that. 2815 02:15:25,840 --> 02:15:27,920 Speaker 3: Maybe the protocols said it should be something else, and 2816 02:15:28,680 --> 02:15:32,200 Speaker 3: there's videos, so at least will be investigated. But when 2817 02:15:32,200 --> 02:15:34,520 Speaker 3: I watched it, I wasn't sure what they should be doing, 2818 02:15:34,880 --> 02:15:39,200 Speaker 3: like what they were doing wrong according to the people 2819 02:15:39,240 --> 02:15:43,520 Speaker 3: that were outraged by the video. But yeah, it looked 2820 02:15:43,560 --> 02:15:46,600 Speaker 3: like he was creeping up on him and he like 2821 02:15:46,680 --> 02:15:49,840 Speaker 3: he did have a knife, and I think what like 2822 02:15:50,080 --> 02:15:52,040 Speaker 3: one of the things about police that I think is 2823 02:15:52,080 --> 02:15:54,560 Speaker 3: a huge misconception that people have, and maybe it's because 2824 02:15:54,560 --> 02:15:54,920 Speaker 3: of TV. 2825 02:15:55,800 --> 02:15:57,240 Speaker 5: They're not here to shoot the fair one. 2826 02:15:57,720 --> 02:15:58,120 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 2827 02:15:58,800 --> 02:16:02,840 Speaker 3: They're here to end the at with whatever force they 2828 02:16:02,960 --> 02:16:06,320 Speaker 3: deem necessary to end it. And a lot of times, 2829 02:16:06,760 --> 02:16:09,240 Speaker 3: you know, one of the reasons you shouldn't really fuck 2830 02:16:09,320 --> 02:16:11,960 Speaker 3: with cops isn't just about well, you're a black man. 2831 02:16:12,720 --> 02:16:15,960 Speaker 3: It's because they're not gonna fight fair and they're not 2832 02:16:16,120 --> 02:16:18,880 Speaker 3: gonna give you a chance to shoot the fair one 2833 02:16:18,960 --> 02:16:21,360 Speaker 3: in battle. They're here to either. 2834 02:16:22,680 --> 02:16:24,400 Speaker 5: Incapacitate you or. 2835 02:16:25,960 --> 02:16:28,840 Speaker 3: Take you out if possible. So you gotta really be 2836 02:16:28,960 --> 02:16:31,000 Speaker 3: careful man. Like I'm seeking people go, why didn't you 2837 02:16:31,000 --> 02:16:33,000 Speaker 3: shoot them in the leg. They're not trained to shoot 2838 02:16:33,000 --> 02:16:34,840 Speaker 3: you in the leg. They're trained to kill you, you 2839 02:16:35,840 --> 02:16:39,480 Speaker 3: know what I mean. Like we like, we all got 2840 02:16:39,520 --> 02:16:43,120 Speaker 3: to talk from our parents because of that, because they're 2841 02:16:43,200 --> 02:16:47,879 Speaker 3: not gonna negotiate. What can we tell our white friends 2842 02:16:48,040 --> 02:16:50,160 Speaker 3: they can do to help. I've been suggesting they talk 2843 02:16:50,200 --> 02:16:52,119 Speaker 3: to other white people about the issues. Then a pupole 2844 02:16:52,200 --> 02:16:54,360 Speaker 3: comes out saying that only thirty seven percent of white 2845 02:16:54,400 --> 02:16:57,480 Speaker 3: people think the situation that ferguson both Mike Brown and 2846 02:16:57,520 --> 02:17:00,400 Speaker 3: the police responsible protests has anything to do with We 2847 02:17:00,480 --> 02:17:02,040 Speaker 3: have a big issue of ignorance going on. 2848 02:17:03,879 --> 02:17:05,480 Speaker 5: I don't know what white people can do the help. 2849 02:17:05,680 --> 02:17:08,199 Speaker 5: I really don't even think about that much as. 2850 02:17:08,120 --> 02:17:12,480 Speaker 3: Far as like the ally thing, like, if people want 2851 02:17:12,520 --> 02:17:15,080 Speaker 3: to talk about it, just be open and eyes to 2852 02:17:15,120 --> 02:17:19,240 Speaker 3: what you think. I think the best thing everybody could 2853 02:17:19,280 --> 02:17:23,920 Speaker 3: do is try not to emotionally jump on people, because. 2854 02:17:23,680 --> 02:17:27,160 Speaker 5: Some people are going to say that is wrong and stupid, and. 2855 02:17:27,240 --> 02:17:31,120 Speaker 3: It's a This could be an opportunity to educate or 2856 02:17:31,200 --> 02:17:35,520 Speaker 3: discuss shit that we haven't really discussed a lot. Like 2857 02:17:36,120 --> 02:17:38,560 Speaker 3: my white friends, man, we talk about race sometimes and 2858 02:17:38,640 --> 02:17:40,920 Speaker 3: they be wrong as shit, and we'll sit down and 2859 02:17:41,640 --> 02:17:44,119 Speaker 3: kind of hash it out. And part of the reason 2860 02:17:44,200 --> 02:17:48,080 Speaker 3: we do that is because I don't just jump in 2861 02:17:48,120 --> 02:17:50,160 Speaker 3: that ship and go fuck you and make them mad. 2862 02:17:50,520 --> 02:17:56,440 Speaker 3: Right But even still, you know, I would just say 2863 02:17:57,000 --> 02:17:59,280 Speaker 3: I'm not really looking for for any of their help. 2864 02:17:59,320 --> 02:18:01,240 Speaker 5: I'm not looking for them to do anything. If they 2865 02:18:01,280 --> 02:18:03,400 Speaker 5: feel compelled, then cool. 2866 02:18:03,640 --> 02:18:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good things.
