福克斯新闻 11岁枪支暴力受害者的祖父表示,许多人"不珍惜生命"(2)

And then a year later, there was another young man that was not too far away from that distance that was also shot and killed, and he was only 11 years old. And then you got Davon. You know, he gets out the car in front of his aunt's house. And the purpose for getting out the car was to get a charger, just to charge his phone, because the phone was dead. That's how he stays in contact with his other cousins. And he gets out the car. Shots ring. He hits the ground. Crystal's looking, saying get up man, he don't get up. So she goes - see what's going on and realize that he was hit with one of the bullets¹ that were being shot, going in that direction, and she didn't realize it until she got over there. Yeah, I mean, and these types of heart rending² stories, sir, you know, there are at least five other families going through the very same thing right now. I want to put up this quote from Black Lives Matter DC and get your opinion on their side, because I know you're also in law enforcement³. It says quoting here, "That's our neighborhood. Your $533 million budget should be defunded, because you can't keep us our families safe. DC Police Department was around when this happened, as usual. We're beyond fed up with the blood in our streets. How dare you ask Mayor⁴ Bowser for more money meant for prevention?"

一年后，在那里不远处的一个地方，一个年仅11岁的男孩再次被击毙。然后就是达文。你知道的，他是从姑姑家门前的车里出来。他从车里出去是为了拿充电器给手机充电，因为手机没电了。他用手机和其他堂兄弟们联系。然后他就从车里出去了。枪响了，他倒地了。克里斯特尔看了看，还说让他起来。但他没有起来。所以她去看看发生什么事了，然后她意识到他是被子弹击中了，直到她走到那儿才意识到发生了什么事。嗯，这种令人心碎的故事，你知道的，至少有5个家庭现在正在经历同样的事情。我想把在华盛顿举行的“黑人的命也是命”抗议活动中的一句话放出来，听听你的观点，因为我知道你也是执法人员。这句话是这样的：“这是我们的社区。你5.33亿美元预算应该被取消，因为你无法保证我们家人的安全。这件事发生时，华盛顿警察局的人就在这附近，和往常一样。我们受够了街道上的血案。你怎么敢问鲍尔斯市长要更多的钱来阻止这种事情发生？”

And I know we mentioned the top that you're had been involved in law enforcement and policing for much of your life. What do you respond to Black Lives Matter when they say things like that, sir? OK. And you're right, most of my life I've been a Guardian⁵ Angel. I started doing this at the age of 14 in New York City. I came to DC and started the group when I was 19. I'm now 50. And 11 years ago I started a special police company called Archangel Global Security⁶ Special Police in Washington DC where we have full police powers. We are law enforcement on the properties that we work. Now for that response. I don't agree that we can't take money from the police department. We need the police. You take the police from there and we wind up having less police officers in the street, less detectives, it's not gonna work. The crime is gonna get worse.

我们刚才提到，你已经参与执法、维护治安很长时间了。听到“黑人的命也是命”抗议活动中出现的这些话，你作何回应？嗯，你说得对，我的大部分时间都花在了“守护天使”组织上。我14岁时在纽约开始做这个项目。19岁时，我来到华盛顿创立这个组织。现在我50岁了。11年前，我在华盛顿开了一家名叫天使长全球安全特警的特警公司，我们有全部的警力。我们的执法范围包括我们持所有权的地产。现在说说回应，我认为我们应该拿到警察局的拨款，因为我们需要警察。你从那里获取警力，然后大街上就没有多少警察和侦探，这是行不通的。犯罪的罪行会更加恶劣。
