I'm big 0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.840 steal with my homeboys, just Reggie Right and James McDonald. 0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:10.760 Tonight we're gonna talk about having strong enemies is a blessing. 0:00:11.360 --> 0:00:16.720 Nipsey Hustle's final and really prophetic um tweet. What do 0:00:16.720 --> 0:00:20.319 you guys think about that? Man? That was deep? That 0:00:20.400 --> 0:00:23.599 was deep because you know, I'm under the model of 0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:26.520 the days and lately of I don't know who my 0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:30.600 enemies and who my friends are now, so you know, 0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:32.879 you gotta keep them all close in my mind. But 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:35.320 that's a deep tweet, and we'll get into more of 0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:38.840 what he really meant by that, but he was throwing 0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:44.080 out I think it's a litttle message about along that line. 0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:47.720 What do you think about that, James? You know I 0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.200 watched everything, I watched the news and all that. It's 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:55.080 it's envy, man. You know you got your homeboys envy, 0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:58.200 you know, hating on you. You you come up and 0:00:58.240 --> 0:00:59.960 you move out the hood, and then you come back 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:03.120 to the hood. This is something every day. You know 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:06.720 what I'm saying, You don't have to come out rapper. 0:01:07.240 --> 0:01:09.360 You can come out the hood from you know, your 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.560 dealings in the hood and walk away and come back. 0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.560 And this is what you have now in the day 0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:19.280 you don't have. There's no respect and loyalty in the 0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:24.280 neighborhood no more. You know, it's no no teaching from 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:27.560 the big homies. It's all youngsters doing what they want 0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:32.120 to do. And you know, I truly believe this is 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:36.440 a sad thing because this young man was doing his thing. 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:39.959 He had a lot of people that loved him and 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.440 and you know, listening to him, I guarantee you a 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:46.880 lot of people didn't understand. And I've seen all the 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.320 funked up tweets where they were saying that he was 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.919 hypocritical about the next day you want to do something 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:56.520 with the police. He was dealing with the police, not 0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:58.840 to say I want you to help me and my 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:02.120 big homies. He was trying to get with the police 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:06.279 to help him with the kids, so the kids didn't 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:09.440 grow up the way he grew up, so the kids 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.720 didn't turn into the you know, the game banging ship. 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:16.480 So he had a strong message message and people just 0:02:16.600 --> 0:02:19.960 don't understanding.

What I mean, we don't know like 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:45.760 if you but from a game ban perspective, if the 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:57.039 video before jail and now you acting this way. I 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:01.080 tell everybody in the streets, man, the big homies they 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:03.520 raised their little homies and they raised them.

This ain't his first rodeo, okay, 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.840 so he was. And everybody got to understand that, man, 0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:22.040 today you can't just beat up one of just no thug. Nick. 0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:24.480 We learned that in death row you ain't just been 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.680 to beat up on no nigger, that that like this 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:32.040 ain't happening to me, and don't respect, don't expect repercussion. 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:36.320 So today and that that ain't the time no more. 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.720 But that dude in jail down and I say, let's 0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:44.360 we should just think about Nipsey. This This was a 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.280 cool little dude. And to be thirty three years old 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:50.880 and be out there like he was and helping the 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:53.360 people that he was helping, you know what I'm saying. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:55.360 They said, when his partners just got out of jail, 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.880 he had clothes and was trying to get his boy 0:07:57.920 --> 0:07:59.800 and do his thing. Now, we got a lot of 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.200 home was in in every neighborhood that look out for 0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:04.200 the homies when they get out of jail. I mean, 0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:07.640 but he was just doing so much then, you know, 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.720 like I said earlier, these people criticizing his brother for 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.200 having a meeting with the police, Wait a minute, man, 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:18.680 how many of us are courageous enough to do that, 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:24.160 to to to to email the chief of police and 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.640 say we need to have a meeting about the violence 0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.520 in our hood. You know what I'm saying, But a 0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:32.360 lot of people didn't understanding. He knew he can't save 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.120 the big homies. He knew he can't save the ones 0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:37.760 that's out there. But you know, doing the park and 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.360 all of this, the men always talk about the kids, 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:44.120 and that's just give back. It's not about the homies 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:47.120 and reaching the homies. Like that's the thing, like, like 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:51.520 grown people is grown people, like as a as a 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:55.880 person with a platform and somebody that that has a voice, 0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.440 like it saw our job to reach and speak to 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:01.079 the youth, Like if I can help an adult, if 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:04.200 I can help a grown person, then I'm on forward. 0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:07.720 But my focus and my goal is to reach the 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:10.240 youth like you people already lived your life and being 0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:12.680 responsible for it, Like I'm trying to be the voice 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.200 to talk down to the youth and help them. That's 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:18.600 one way to get it to stop. If you stop 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:22.679 the youngsters, nephews and your little cousins, then you stop 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.000 everything else. And the thing is to start at home. 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.120 A lot of this ship start at home. A lot 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.600 of this ship is the the upbringing and the mentality, 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.160 uh you know what I mean these niggas, and it 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:36.760 starts at home, like like a lot of this ship 0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:39.400 if a nigger woke up to you woke up and 0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.280 your mama was cussing and fussing, and get your stupid 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:44.080 ass up and get your ass out of my house 0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:46.480 and clean up my funt. Like that ship has a 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:49.679 mental It takes a mental toll on the young. Know, 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:51.800 you go to school man, like you feel you go 0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:54.160 to school man and end up bullying and slapping on 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:56.560 the nigga because you're getting bullied. Like it starts at home, 0:09:56.679 --> 0:10:00.040 like motherfuckers need to like get these homes settings. And 0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.679 that's clear this that we're not maybe even because we 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:05.480 wasn't there and so we don't know all the facts 0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:08.040 because we didn't heard some some things and then some 0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:10.120 things out there where he's saying that they came and 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:13.520 gave he gave them pound, you know, like doubt and 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:15.960 said what's up? Left said he was going to get 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:19.920 a burger and came back shooting, and so so so 0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:22.280 much stuff out there, and so we don't want to 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.480 get stuck or or saying like we're saying this is 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.240 how it happened, because that's not what we're saying. We 0:10:27.400 --> 0:10:30.839 just yeah, we're just putting out street politics and how 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:34.480 things go on from Bosco. But who's there and James who? 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:39.440 The only thing we're saying is that's what happens in 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.920 the neighborhood on that side of the fence, and these 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:49.840 are the things that that was happening with with Nipsey 0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:54.200 at the time, his whole business, his whole focus was kids. 0:10:54.880 --> 0:11:00.480 You know what I'm saying, Yeah, no, keep on and 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:03.800 this was his his thing of what he was doing. So, 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:12.480 I mean, you have a you have a lot of people. Yeah, 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.080 you have a lot of people out there just on 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:16.520 some some some straight one hunting and some other ship. 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:18.840 So that's what I'm saying. We're just mainly speaking on 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:22.920 generalization of situations like that, and we're not trying to 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:27.160 say this this case is specific. Um you know how 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:30.800 they went down? Yeah, because I'm sure there's gonna be 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.880 some other things that come out in the upcoming days. 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.600 I'm truly saying the man had a brilliant plan and 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:43.280 for people to say that he was contradicting himself because 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:46.080 he was calling, you know, having this meeting with the 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:49.760 chief of police to save his use. That he's you know, 0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:53.000 he's contradicting itself. And that's young minds in my mind 0:11:53.040 --> 0:11:55.880 because that that that young man, because I don't think 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.560 things when people say, why are you never moved out? 0:11:58.520 --> 0:12:00.760 People don't know that man moved out, took his family 0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.520 and he was living in Atlanta. You know, he was 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:05.520 living out in Atlanta. He had a nice little spot 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.199 in Mallibo at one time, and then he got a 0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.440 nice little living in some high rising apartments. I heard 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:12.560 a lady that be with Stephen A smilth and there 0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.360 on the day he said they lived in the same 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:18.520 building when he's in Los Angeles. So the man moved out, 0:12:18.720 --> 0:12:20.760 but you know, got out of the hood, which he 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:23.040 was supposed to, and that's the way, you know, he's 0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:25.360 making his money. But he was still coming back to 0:12:25.400 --> 0:12:28.000 help and doing what he's supposed to do. And that 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:31.880 that that's everybody to bunds when you come back to 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.800 the neighborhood. He could have just bounced. But either way, 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:37.160 if he had left the neighborhood and never came back 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:40.040 when he wrote for that and then he come back 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:45.280 and then he owned that whole shopping center, moved to 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:48.040 whoop on you and if I if I don't hear one, 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:50.840 that one gonna get drunk, get the next one or 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:52.600 the homie you heat him flip And they came in 0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:55.520 front the hood no more. That's the way shit happens. 0:12:55.720 --> 0:13:00.320 That's the neighborhood. That's the neighborhood, you know. And like 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:03.719 you said, man, keep your enemies coached. You gotta pay 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:06.120 attention to who you're working with. But we don't know, 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.679 we don't know. That's that's the thing. You know. The 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:15.320 thing is, man, we as the black race. Man, we 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:21.280 almost have um a sociopathic issue, man um, you know, 0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:25.320 a homicidal issue, man, Because the thing is, like Boskett 0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:27.800 was saying earlier, we experienced all this pain in our 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.520 household and we go out and transfer that pain to 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:33.200 somebody else. All it is right now is a big 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.600 transference to pain. Transference to pain. Because this situation is 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:39.559 very sad. It's sad for Nipsey, it's sad for the 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.079 brother that's going to jail because now his parents. So 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:43.679 you got a cycle of people. When you go out 0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:46.480 and gun somebody down, you ain't just doing something of 0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:49.320 that person. You're doing something of that man's mama, his 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:52.800 daddy is auntie, his grandmaster. You got a genuination the pain, 0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:56.120 and ain't no telling what look, kid, that's the Nipsey's life. 0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:59.079 Gonna feel that pain and that impact and go out 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:01.320 and transfer that pain somebody else. So it's just like 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:04.080 a vicious cycle. Yeah, and James can speaking as better 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:07.720 than anybody because he experienced this first time. His brother 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.880 was was killed by somebody that grew up with all 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.800 of us, and that you know, that man titled this 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:21.520 show uh sleeping showering just just just just there in 0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.920 the shag which we we all hung out, I mean, 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:28.080 but just I mean that is this right here can 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:31.240 handle to anybody, This can happen to anybody being in 0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:34.600 the hood. Every every last one of us are subject 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:38.680 to this right here. And and I can go way back. 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:41.400 I can go back to early eighties when cats first 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:44.360 start came out with the crack and motherfucker's making money. 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:46.680 And oh man, that they can making money, ain't sun 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:49.280 with us no more. Let's giddy, you know what I'm saying. 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:53.600 Don't have to be like that, but it is like that. 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:55.720 So I mean, you got a lot of cats out 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:58.360 of here. Just don't give a fuck. It is what 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:00.360 it is. Some say it is what it is. You 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.080 got a lot that's that's doing this right now, trying 0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:08.360 to make a change. But it it outweighs itself, because 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.560 if you had everybody on the same page, we will 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:14.160 be good, you know what I'm saying. And it's man, 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:17.440 it's it's it's so, it's so much and and it 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:20.640 it really don't take much to get rid of this situation. 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.640 You just gotta have some strong heads and bold you 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.520 know what I'm saying. Well, that's why it takes guys 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.720 like you and Bosco who's older than been out there. 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:31.360 And I love with both of your energy because you 0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:33.600 can find both for your own YouTube. And that's all 0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:37.040 you've been talking of lately. It's positive things, mainly about 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.200 the kids and trying to educate the young kids. Because 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:43.320 the most dangerous person you know in America, they used 0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:45.000 to tell us when I was in law enforcement and 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:47.440 all of that, was a black man between the age 0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:51.560 of sixteen and twenty five, because he has nothing to lose. 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:54.640 He didn't have anything. But now and y'all know how 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:57.120 y'all were back and been doing that age bracket. But 0:15:57.200 --> 0:16:00.000 look at y'all now you're all on positive. I'm glad 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.040 that you're gonna have made it out and y'all can 0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:04.840 do it. And speaking like that because y'all now you 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:07.480 know it's all on that positive. And what we mainly 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:09.760 here for is to try to tell the young kids 0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:12.800 and the young dudes is best weekend by your experience, 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:15.440 that this is the way the way to go. Man, 0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:20.400 I like and this is just straight basically on Nipsey. 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.480 I'm fifty four years old. Man. I didn't seen it. Oh, 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:26.040 I didn't seen it happen. I didn't seen the best 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:32.240 get turned into nothing. I didn't see brothers reputations go 0:16:32.360 --> 0:16:35.800 from good to bad in thirty minutes just because the 0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:38.680 motherfucker hate you, you know what I'm saying, Just because 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:40.640 he's trying to prove a point in the next cat 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:45.520 and you defamed in one day, five minutes. You know 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:48.840 what I'm saying. Back in the days when they said paperwork, 0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:52.280 you had to have that right then and there to 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:54.440 execute to get rid of a person. You know what 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:57.240 I'm saying, you don't have. You don't need that no more. 0:16:57.680 --> 0:16:59.880 You don't need that no more, or you need this conversation. 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.840 And and once you lost the loyalty in the neighborhood, 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:07.240 you don't have no more loyalty. You might have four 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:10.119 five morefucker's that funk with each other. Your hood is 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:14.680 a hunted strong, but you only funk with five. That 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:18.119 ain't good. You gotta have a whole hood. Back in 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.560 the days when I was doing it, we walked fifteen 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:24.400 deep through the hood. You know what I'm saying. Now, 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:27.280 you don't get that no more. You don't get that 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:32.080 no more. So the only way these kids to get it, 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:34.240 And I say the way and if she was doing 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:37.159 it was one hunter because now that I'm involving the 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:40.800 police on that, so whatever they got trainings and whatever 0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:43.880 to keep the kids away or stop them from thinking, 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:48.359 speeches or whatever. Man, you gotta plaut that dude, because 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:52.200 Lacy tried. He only thirty three. He ain't seen that much. 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:56.119 He ain't seen that much, but he's smart enough to 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.920 know it. Just man, this ship ain't worth it. If 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:01.720 I can change, and he's said this, if I can change, 0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:04.639 everybody else can change. I'll be a damned food and 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.760 not think I'm not gonna get killed out of here, 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:10.440 or one day that's gonna happen to me, you know 0:18:10.480 --> 0:18:13.160 what I'm saying. So man, he just he just flipped 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:17.040 all of that bad energy he had and and and 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:20.640 when he said, man, I'm gonna do this, and everybody 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:23.080 got to respect the fact that he's doing that. You 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:26.320 know what I'm saying. Like this fucking idiot that got 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:29.800 on Facebook, y'all didn't see that and said, oh I whoa, whoa, 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:33.919 whoa whoa stupid ship. You know what I'm saying, Whoever 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:37.800 that dude is, somebody should broke his fucking neck. Some 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:43.160 guy got on Facebook saying that he did it. He 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:45.360 did it. I just left him over there. Who woo 0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:48.879 woo this And whoever sat there and talked to that 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:53.040 guy should do something CHOI. And the reason why I 0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:56.399 say that, the biggest problem that that we all have 0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:59.879 is black men being in the hood or whatever be 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.200 in the hood, never knew each other, never seen each other. 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:04.880 I introduced my shof to everybody's had a black man, 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:08.120 How you doing black man? Now? All that other ship, 0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:11.720 But our biggest problem is talking about each other, hating 0:19:11.760 --> 0:19:14.480 what the next motherfucker got. Man, you can get a 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:16.320 job get out there and get your own ship. If 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:18.520 you don't get it, don't get it, well, let me 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:20.119 just stop being the only one to talk because I'm 0:19:20.160 --> 0:19:24.400 about to start. But you know what, do you got 0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:26.840 a point in all this needs to be talked about it. 0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:29.320 It's like the biggest problem we get in our communities too, 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:33.320 is that there's this big we're breathing our kids to 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.880 hate authority. We're breathing our kids not to like the police, 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:38.600 We're breathing our kids not to do them. And you 0:19:38.640 --> 0:19:42.480 know the thing, it was like this one thing I noticed, Reggy, 0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:45.240 you was a police officer, and one thing I noticed 0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:49.359 is that everybody knew your pops. That's how it should 0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:51.160 be with the police. It shouldn't be a thing when 0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:53.320 the police rolled around the corner, the kids are scared. 0:19:53.600 --> 0:19:56.480 They should know who the police officers. They should have 0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:58.960 it really to where kids, if you was born in 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:02.159 Common and raised and that's where you should be patrolling that, 0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:04.440 then people they should be trying to get it should 0:20:04.480 --> 0:20:07.600 be people policing their own community. And they try to 0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:11.560 push that and and and in fairness to Reggie sr 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:14.240 he uh had you know, because he was born and 0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:18.119 raised in the Imperial Court housing projects and Watts and 0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:20.720 so he always knew that he was before what they 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:24.080 called community policing UH in the city of Compton, where 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.000 he was the type of officer that goes around and 0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:28.720 will meet meet people and know what I'm talking to him? Believe, 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:31.040 why you gotta treat the people like that? Even me 0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:33.000 when I was a young and dunk cop. He used 0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:35.440 to be like, why are you being like that? These 0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.720 are people you went to school with, These are people 0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:40.160 who you grew up with. Why are you being like that? 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:43.600 You didn't learn this ship from me? Why are you 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:46.000 like that? You know, these people don't want to be 0:20:46.040 --> 0:20:48.840 doing this. They didn't want to. She didn't want to, 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:51.320 you know, be in this situation, and they didn't. They 0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:56.640 just was dealt that hand. Reggie Right was so solid 0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:00.760 on the streets. He didn't just deal with the bloods. 0:21:01.000 --> 0:21:03.320 He dealt with everybody. Reggie Right used to get out 0:21:03.359 --> 0:21:06.359 of his car and and and just shoot the ship 0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:09.800 with us with everybody. Motherfucker's had pistols on him. When 0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:13.000 Reggie didn't know but had pistols on him talking to him, 0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:15.439 you know, he just get out the car. Man. What 0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:17.720 you do today? What you do him and Mr Ford 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:21.120 Lead forward father, they were they were just positive. But 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:24.359 we did our own thing right at the Reggie lead 0:21:24.440 --> 0:21:27.680 We were all doing our thing. But Reggie right Man 0:21:27.880 --> 0:21:31.840 talked to everybody. He was like, he just kept in 0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:35.199 one hunting if he Reggie right was the only one 0:21:35.240 --> 0:21:39.160 I would turn myself into. And in fairness, they didn't 0:21:39.200 --> 0:21:41.679
