0-16
between the guardians of our society and those they serve seems wider now than
0-22
it's been in my lifetime but no one can doubt being a law enforcement officer is
0-28
becoming increasingly dangerous Ferguson Baltimore baton rouge Dallas no walking
0-37
just a few of the many places in our country where violent protests have been

blamed on members of the thin blue line certain members of the so-called
0-48
mainstream media some political leaders and those who profit from discord have
0-54
all but put targets on the backs of those who were a badge Milwaukee Sheriff
1-00
David Clarke has spent his entire 38 year career in the cause of justice by
1-06
any measure
1-07
he's an American hero and he tells it like it is when you look back at the
1-14
time that I was growing up
1-15
milwaukee was a middle-class city lot of Industry a lot of jobs a lot of
1-20
well-paying family-supporting jobs and then when the industrial economy started
1-27
to leave replaced by the tech age of the information age all that industry went
1-32
away
1-33
milwaukee became a Rust Belt city so you're losing all of these of this
1-37
that's the middle class that's the foundation of a strong community a
1-42
strong society you know it's been replaced
1-45
especially in the black community by the single-parent household and and all of
1-49
the things that have fallen off from that have been devastating for Milwaukee
1-54
so what that meant was we were putting more on the backs of the police you know
1-59
when i started in policing compared to today
2-01
hi was easy and you didn't see is easy back then but it was because you had a
2-06
more stable community you know the police were seen as you know guardians
2-10
and and protectors the officers knew the people in their squad area there beach
2-15
area they walk to be even it
2-17
in a patrol car so there was a connection there was a familiarity you
2-22
didn't have the single parent racial that we have today seventy percent of
2-26
black kids born into a single-family home
2-29
seventy percent when I grew up with Kid first of all you know my first authority
2-34
figure was my dad and my dad demanded discipline demanded and ask for demanded
2-45
he taught me how to respect authority so when I left the house during the day I
2-50
went to school in grade school
2-51
it became the authority figure a teacher they were an authority figure and so
2-56
when I looked I saw my dad I said that's the authority feet these young kids
3-02
don't respect your parents don't respect teachers at school don't respect respect
3-08
other adults in their lives as authority figures now they run up against the
3-12
ultimate authority figure the cop and when that meets that undisciplined young
3-22
kid with no respect for authority meets that authority figure in the form of a
3-26
uniform and a badge the uniforms gotta win I'll tell you why because we are on
3-34
the front lines of water Liberty we have to force along we can't back down
3-37
teachers back down up and get seasick
3-40
this is tee shot you know though don't curse the teacher out in the classroom
3-45
alright will do the same thing on the street so we have to win we have to win
3-50
because ordered Liberty is at stake the cops make millions of stops here across
3-58
the country traffic stops field interview stops they go to calls for
4-02
service millions rarely do they have to source
4-06
very rarely it is an aberration and use deadly force
4-11
this is a rare occurrence has been heightened magnified by the media
4-16
this is a breakdown of the underclass society that's that's the heavy lifting
4-25
it's easier to just slam the police are on the front lines with the most visible
4-29
symbol of government in the community it's not the elected official they're
4-34
rarely seen right consider every day except the deal with some unpleasant
4-39
things for people who are an easy target
4-44
this is a political construct that has nothing to do with black lives
4-52
it's an ideology it's a dangerous hateful destructive ideology in isn't
4-57
very auntie police ideology
5-03
he's a purveyor of hate for the American police officer take it out back ya know
5-11
love ya got about this is not being presented as the symbol of the new civil
5-21
rights struggle compassion for criminals we've gone from Rosa Parks was an icon
5-28
of the civil rights struggle Emmett Till dr. Martin Luther King and others we've
5-36
gone from that to Mike Brown to eric garner to Freddie greatest Sandra bland
5-43
those are icons in a civil rights show no those are criminals engage in
5-49
behavior that contributed toward what happened to them at the end that's what
5-53
bothers me more is it wait a minute wait a minute now we've come a long way in
5-57
the civil rights struggle there was a time in it and it wasn't that long ago
6-01
it's difficult for blacks to volt there's an ugly chapter in this country
6-06
don't have that anymore
6-07
what can we do to keep this going and civil rights struggle as a political
6-12
constructs its so now you gotta resort to criminals and I say Amen
6-17
how do we fall this fight is fast you know for most part to my ground
6-21
the only way you know about this movement or what they claim is happens
6-28
to the media the media knows better
6-30
this stuff has all been debunked that we kill more young black males and police
6-36
interactions any other race it's not even close
6-39
it's not even call if we were close i'd say well you know it's coin flip by a
6-43
two-to-one margin more white males are killed in police interactions and
6-47
blackmails 21 it's not even close
6-51
the media's role really should be responsible reporting look at the data
6-56
look at the research
6-58
and say hey they're making his claim but it's all emotion we understand
7-01
understands the emotion out of these things
7-04
what is what the research shows they won't print that they won't tell that
7-09
side
7-09
I need a supporter or someone who doesn't support them i simply report on
7-13
black labs do you condemn the ante police rhetoric coming from this hateful
7-19
ideology as a journalist sitting here on television I don't have to condemn
7-23
anyone that anything that is something like this
7-27
well either people around the country and energy jobs two conditions like I
7-31
contend that beautiful ideology other groups like the KKK alright i condemn it
7-38
this has fuel and fan the flames of this anger toward the American police officer
7-44
there's only one group in America one time that truly cares about the lives of
7-50
black people in these urban ghettos and it's the American police officer who
7-55
goes down there on a daily basis
7-57
what's their life on the line to protect who black people and I've been all
8-03
across this country talking to cops
8-05
I say cop some old-school I'm a cop I'm a career college that tell people my
8-10
career cop other beleaguered right now we didn't get into this to die but we
8-16
volunteer more willing to make that sacrifice by called the ultimate
8-19
sacrifice we want to do that to make our community safer
8-22
however we gotta know it's worth these men and women leaving behind spouses
8-27
children
8-30
siblings parents and I want to know hey this was worth so when I see what's
8-38
going on today and I go to the law enforcement officers memorial wall
8-42
washington DC i stand in the middle of that plastic and I say to myself what
8-48
must they be think 20,000 names of law enforcement officers killed in line to
8-53
do any idea what must they be thinking with all this stuff going on this
8-57
constant slamming the police defaming us mischaracterizing slandering us if you
9-03
lost sibling of you lots of spots you lost a son or daughter killed in the
9-08
line of duty as a cop
9-11
what would you be thinking the sacrifice was in vain
9-15
Dino cops cops are good people we perfect not really stretch the
9-20
imagination
9-22
our law enforcement agencies perfect not even close to being imperfect as part of
9-27
the human condition you don't expect for my people i sent them on every day they
9-31
know it
9-32
excellence not perfection excellence and from law enforcement officers all across
9-39
this country we get excellence
9-43
hopefully our next president will be the kind of leader who sets an example of
9-49
respect for those who protect and serve in uniform and who admires them as much
9-54
as i do for front lines on NRA news
9-59
i'm oliver north
