now that it was five black officers you
0:02
still going to say it was racism are the
0:04
police still racist this conversation
0:08
has always been about the system and
0:10
never about the individual if you're
0:12
asking that question you're not
0:13
interested in the answer because you
0:15
don't even understand the problem yet
0:17
let me ask you a question what do the
0:19
police do the police don't solve crime
0:22
less than 2% of crimes are actually
0:24
solved by the cops they don't reduce
0:27
crime we have study after study after
0:29
study that show so the increase of cops
0:31
does not decrease crime they don't deter
0:34
crime because if they did then increase
0:37
cops would decrease crime and we just
0:38
said that doesn't happen they don't
0:40
Serve and Protect the Supreme Court
0:42
ruled the police have no duty to protect
0:44
anyone who's not in their custody so
0:47
what do they do yeah next time somebody
0:49
breaks in your house who you going to
0:51
call not the cops you live in TV land
0:54
where you call the cops and they come
0:55
blazing around the corner in 5 minutes
0:57
not happening especially if you live in
1:00
low income or high crime areas it could
1:02
be hours before they show up so if
1:04
somebody breaks in your house and you
1:05
need protection you better get to
1:07
protecting yourself because the cops not
1:09
going to do anything so what the [ __ ] do
1:11
the cops do drain our city budget if you
1:14
want to get tough on crime get tough on
1:16
the number one cause of crime poverty
1:19
lower poverty you lower crime stop
1:21
treating drugs as if they're criminal
1:23
decriminalize all drugs get rid of
1:26
punitive punishment let's focus on
1:28
rehabilitation let's focus on
1:30
restorative justice we have the highest
1:33
recidivism rate in anywhere in the
1:35
[ __ ] developed world and the highest
1:37
incarceration rate per capita of any
1:40
other developed country so more people
1:42
in prison and more people going to
1:43
prison clearly that's not the [ __ ]
1:46
answer so when you got guys with guns
1:48
going around stopping people because
1:49
they got a broken tail light or because
1:51
they have a air freshener in their
1:53
mirror or because their tags are expired
1:55
when you got guys with guns
1:57
investigating because you look
1:58
suspicious when you got guys with guns
2:00
who have the authority to strip you of
2:03
your human and constitutional rights
2:05
just because they want to that's how we
2:07
end up with Elijah mlan that's how we
2:10
end up with Sandra Bland that's how we
2:12
end up with Freddy gray that's how we
2:13
end up with Amir lock that's how we end
2:15
up with bana Taylor that's how we end up
2:17
with Dante Wright that's how we end up
2:19
with George Floyd that's how we end up
2:21
with Eric Garner and that's how we end
2:23
up with Tyreek Nichols this has never
2:25
been about the individual it's about the
2:27
system the system doesn't [ __ ] work
2:30
the system of policing in this country
2:32
doesn't [ __ ] work abolish this system
2:35
and start over let's focus on a security
2:38
department that responds to active
2:39
security threats not a department that
2:41
polices people let's spend less money on
2:44
policing people and more money on
2:46
resources and opportunities lower
2:48
poverty you lower crime restorative
2:51
justice and mass incarceration if you
2:54
really want to be part of this
2:55
conversation and part of the solution
2:57
then recognize the problem
