Close down so were going to have fears journalism soon as close as close as were away. One of the reasons i became an attorney was to help people because you know when i was a little girl i noticed there were a lot of drugs in the community a lot of gangs in the community. I found 2 bodies that had been overdosed on heroin they were in the alley over on 31st and we can leave and i knew who they were because my cousin was a heroin addict and i knew one of the women i knew her little girl and i. I knew her and i had seen her when she was alive so i was in 3rd grade when i saw these bodies then fast forward a little bit farther in the future and then crack came into the community and my little cousin was a victim of that and so just saying what that did to the community i decided to know when i have a disability who were. Whining when used drugs they cant get a job maybe will have been tagged with melanies for a low level offenses when she chat with a felony youre serving a life sentence on the installment plan basically you are going to go in and out of jail because youve got to come out and be faced with i have a felony so i can have Public Housing like Imperial Courts i cant be with my family because i am a felony.

And see red sneak is a jacket has Read Everything is consistent with gang activity.

For money on a watch. And then this is be ip instead of rest and peace its bonding and peace and thats his home. There rival gangs crave street so theyll have 107. 00 which is the pinnacle for murder. Street with that she crossed out. Youre telling everybody that you killed a great street and. Everybody comes out to check on these guys in their report back to other gang members so why theyre being stopped as you can. See behind us 120 and 127 i want to lock is a unit thats selling our cocks so as much as a concern about these guys im more concerned about the money inside of me with his hand guns and narcotics inside so theyll move this location right when they can set up shop somewhere else. All these guys are here a customers whenever you see a group or transients hanging around you know that theres a narcotics location within 50 to 70 feet and they set up camp here and thats all they do is smoke all day long but these guys again its everythings full circle so these guys now are your car thieves your burglar s. Because they have to feed their habit and a gang members know that so its just a revolving door here. Is enough from bad enough to take. The other suspect into custody for sales a narcotic so tysons going to bring him back to the station people for sales. I. I. I i live. By vocational pastor is extremely difficult i work full time as a special agent for the u. S. Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General and that is. A position in which i investigate f. B. I. Agents the agents u. S. Attorneys and others. Its difficult to to handle both jobs well and ive been pretty successful of both areas. I believe that its imperative for me to continue in my career in the federal government because. As a role model in both areas of life so people when they come to our church and they found out that number one i am bi vocational that thats impressive to be because they want to know how i can hold it all together and secondly because i am a man of god and i treat everyone fairly and that. I believe that is our. Responsibility. To god that we serve as a god of 2nd chances. I am so pleased that we have so many people. That have been rehabilitated people been formerly incarcerated former drug addicts former prostitutes gay members and we accept everyone as they are and we let them know that hey they may have made mistakes in the past but they are god is a forgiving and a merciful god were here to tell. What happens with so many people the wind up being homeless is that theyve had opportunities that. Maybe they havent been able to take advantage of it. Oftentimes they shut down. For me. I had a brother homeless and eventually died on the streets and its very difficult to deal with someone who has really given up on life. When you think about the sheer numbers of individuals who find themselves homeless in los angeles were talking about estimates 38 to 45. On a nightly basis find themselves. 4 door. Exists between South Los Angeles and downtown. On skid row skid rows community you know folks. See guys that i know you know its their group your role in the mission and they go to jail and they end up in a county jail for 7 months by the case but i always said you know they go to court cases go over those i know i wasnt you just please go. You know what happens if a guy have a job you know lost a job i know we all pay a rate you know its very few people have their own home you know so by the time you get out your apartment is gone you know all this stuff is. Going to go to 90 days to come pick up your property you know is there music out to do it so you do music every day. So you get out you have nowhere to go you have no money you know what do you do you come to skid row to get a road is the only place where you could come see you really. Do something just the clothes and hopefully you know design is not to go. To be you know its going to get into a program. To hire an estimate of disconnection from the labor market for africanamericans is around 60 percent for africanamericans between the ages of 18 and roughly 45. 00 so think about think about you have a population in 2012 about 500000 africanamericans who reside within the city of los angeles which is 459 square miles and a large percentage of them the greater number of are not connected to work in los angeles one in 18 africanamericans own homes the actual Homeless Population and this 50 square block area is about 4500 but when we talk about South Central los angeles combined South Central los angeles homelessness combined with Downtown Los Angeles homelessness were talking about 20000 people skin. Role. Exists within the center of power in los angeles and i think its important to note that skid row thievin in Los Angeles California is a well kept secret this is the epicenter this is the epicenter of poverty and if you cant fix it here you cant fix it. The largest amount of Homeless People are africanamerican children because of you render why and why many homeless and she has 3 children what happens is theres not a lot of housing for women and children so the woman goes into transitional housing by herself and those 3 kids usually get split into different foster homes and at that point they may never really see each other as a family again and and thats the most one of the most heart wrenching things because the kids will tell me i had my little 16 year old boy you know boys are supposed to cry and i saw a tear about to form a design he said mistakes and i didnt do anything wrong i dont understand why this is happening to me and. It was very sad and i was like you know me didnt do anything wrong but his life had been turned upside down and and i cant tell him that his life is ever going to get better. Or ever since time when the kids are going to get the kids ok in the teachers spends time think the teacher gets the kids and the parents spend time they get the kids in it the gang spends time they get the kids more often than not the gang is the one that spends a time when the kids and so they do get that sense of community from them because theres a very dysfunctional family unit theres you know theyre not Everybody Needs some kind of support and nurturing in some sense of belonging and appreciation so theyre going to go wherever they can get it. Is. Ok. Too. Yeah. I do oh. I. Want to be with you and. Tell. You. Thank. You. It was a. Pretty good. Place for. Mum mum. Mum. Mum. Mum. Mum. You really get the phone. So smart you didnt. Say. He was the digits of the fixed. Costs. Lets. Get a little blue with you should learn morse just so small over. The phone number that you quote on the phone apart from other least slightly. Move on the move. The war in syria seems to be winding down with some syrians returning to their homeland but going back to a normal life now seems like a pipe dream after almost a decade of proxy war this syrian nell dooms 2 years of proxy peace. Why a paradise with sum up all around turned into a round the experimentation field the agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants theres no question otherwise why would that the Chemical Company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in day you have many of these people who have one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental racism going on in hawaii whether these Companies Feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. What politicians do so. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or somehow want to. Have to go right to the press of survival before 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the waters in the. First sip.
