CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)

DEMONSTRATORS:
No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!
No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

Hey hey, ho ho!
These killer cops
have got to go!

Hey hey, ho ho! These killer
cops have got to go!

No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace!

MAN: It's no surprise, man.

It's not, it happens
every day all the time,

but it takes something
of this magnitude

to be nationally publicized.

It just depends,
whatever the media...
They picked up on this story.

There's other
stories they didn't
pick up on like this one.

Like it's good that they did,
and I hope St. Louis takes

advantage of
the opportunity, man,

but there's a whole bunch
of other kids that get
shot by the cops too.

And don't nobody do no
marches and stuff for them.

One hundred percent, man.

Do you feel the anger?
And it has to change.

There has to be an ear
in leadership to listen,

rather than just
ordering around.

And you have a generation that
are getting fed up with it.

They're getting
fed up with it.

And even though they don't
have what we call a...

A organized education,
they're intelligent
individuals.

And so they understand
what it is to be oppressed

and they know when someone
is trying to oppress them.

And as you see out here now,
they're fighting it.

And I think that
it's going to be more

than just Ferguson
in the future.

I think it's gonna expand,

I really do.

WOMAN:
Please do not forget that
there is a 12:00 curfew

and if you are out
in Ferguson after 12:00
we cannot ensure your safety.

The police are not telling
us how they will respond

to anyone being down
in Ferguson after 12:00.

We cannot ensure your safety.
There are too many people.

PROTESTER:
There is no peace at all!
Answers is what we want!

Give us that,
or there will be no sleep!
None at all!

I'm not scared of your stick!
That means nothing to me!

I need answers,
Tonight!
Answer me this!

OFFICER: Please calm down.
PROTESTER:
Why are we out here?

OFFICER: Calm it down.

If I answer your questions,
I'll listen to you and I want
you to listen to me.

Let's not scream
at each other.

PROTESTER: You first.

We're out here to get answers.

If I had answers to give you,
young man, I would.

I would.

And there's answers to the
questions that you're asking,

and trust me, if I could
give you some answers,

I know it would allow all
of us to go home tonight.

But I guarantee you that
every night when I go
home and I wake up,

I'm looking for some
of the same answers
that you're looking for.

PROTESTER:
Why are you speaking for him?

Why are you speaking for him?

OFFICER: He's speaking
for us, brother. He's speaking
for the community.

PROTESTER:
You need to speak for us.
We need answers.

We need answers!

Just like the answers
that you want,

there's people that are
white, Hispanic, Asian...

When you look around here,

there's a lot of people that
say, "You know what,

"We're out here protesting,

"We're out here asking
for change it isn't just us.

"It's everybody."

(PROTESTORS SHOUTING
INDISTINCTLY)

Hands up, don't shoot!

Hands up, don't shoot!

Hands up, don't shoot!

MAN:
You are in violation
of the state-imposed curfew.

You must disperse immediately
in a peaceful manner.

Don't resist! Don't resist!

We have the right
to assemble peacefully!

MAN:
You are violating
the state-imposed curfew.

No one is doing
anything wrong!

No one is doing
anything wrong!

We have the right!
That's our right!

That's what we vote for!

PROTESTER:
Tell them there's
no looting tonight!

There is no looting!

PROTESTER:
There is no fighting tonight!

There is no fighting!

PROTESTER: Please tell them.
All we want to do
is protest peacefully!

MAN :
You must disperse
the area immediately.

You are in violation of
the state-imposed curfew.

You are subject to arrest.

You must leave immediately.

WOMAN: Marco!

Marco!

Marco!

This is how they do us.
What the fuck?

You think we can't
peacefully protest,
motherfuckers!

That's bullshit!

Fuck you!

Fuck you!

MAN :
You are not authorized
to remain...

Move!

Hey!

You guys should be ready
to go home.

Back up! Back up!

Back up! Back up!

Keep going. Keep going!

MAN :
You need to continue to move!

If you are standing still,
you may be subject to arrest.

OFFICER:
This is ground zero! Back up!

This is ground zero!

(DISPATCH
CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY)

DISPATCH: Car 16?

MAN: Hey, lift it back up.

Come on, guys,
move the line back.

Watch your back.

Let's go.

FEMALE OFFICER: Hey!

FEMALE OFFICER: Yes.

MAN : Car 72 or 55?

Are you on the afternoons
now or what are
you working now?

Afternoons. I'm going
on hour four of overtime.

OFFICER: Oh, that's cool.
Yeah, right?

They need to stop giving
these boys these toys

'cause they don't know
how to handle it.

Hello?

DAVE GROSSMAN: The policeman
is the man of the city.

Heard of the mountain man,
the frontiersman?

Nobody talks about
frontiersmen anymore.

We still talk about policemen.

You are to your city,
your county, your state

what the frontiersman
was to the frontier.

You fight violence.

What do you fight it with?

Superior violence.

Righteous violence, yeah?

Violence is your tool.
Violence is your enemy.

Violence is the realm
we operate in.

You are men
and women of violence.

You must master it,

or it will destroy you, yeah?

I've been on
the road for 18 years.

People know me. They trust me.

I get a depth of information.

I ask questions
other people won't ask.

Cop says knock-down,
drag-out fight,

cuff them and stuff them.

Finally get home at
the end of the shift and...

Cop says gunfight,
bad guys down.

'I'm alive!"

Finally get home at
the end of the incident

and they all say,

"The best sex
I've had in months."

Both partners
are very invested in
some very intense sex.

There's not a whole
lot of perks that come
with this job.

You find one,
relax and enjoy it.

Thank you, for taking
and keeping...

Anybody here from prison,
probation, jail?

'Cause I honor you,
I publicly honor you.

You looked in the eyes
of scary people every day,

and you know the world's
a better place 'cause
they're behind bars, yes?

So you do this...

On your way home that night,
park your vehicle
in the overpass

for just a minute.

Step out of your vehicle
for just a minute.

Look out on your city.

Look at your citizens
going about their lives,

and know deep in your gut

that today,

at the risk of your life,

you made their world
a better place,

whether they know it or not.

Then walk up that bridge rail,

put your hands on that rail.

Look out on your city,

and let your cape
blow in the wind.

Thanks, guys. Thank you.

Go, go, go!
Easy!

You got it, man.
Ya'll gotta go!

RICKY EZELL: Easy run,
boys, let's go! Breathe!

Let's go! Get it done!

We all get amped up, going on,
if we do a regular warrant,

we all get the feel,
and the adrenalin going,

but you don't get
the butterflies

you do on the start line
for any of these events.

It's just different.

Get in, let's go!
Get in, let's go,
let's go, let's go!

Get inside,
then you'll be good!

(SWAT TEAM SHOUTING,
CHEERIING)

I remember
the first search warrant,

you're riding on the outside
of these armored vehicles.

I remember
the first time I did it,

I'm just trying not to smile,
like it was just so much fun,

I thought it was so cool.

And so now every time we get
new guys, we call them pups,

we call them "SWAT pups,"

and I'm always
watching them.

The first time they
go on a search warrant,

they're on the outside
of the vehicles,

I always look for them
and they're always just

smiling ear to ear.

They just feel like they're
on the top of the world.

Get in there! Get in there!

Good job, guys.

SWAT OFFICER: Obviously,
we don't have it
as bad over here

as they do in Iraq
or Afghanistan

but we come across
threats too that

military training's
gonna help.

All the things we have
the M4 rifles and the armored
trucks we have,

we have 'cause something
in the States

has happened that has
warranted that for us.

This is a diversionary device.
One, two, three!

ANNOUNCER:
Please help me welcome

the director of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation

Director Comey, a real friend
of law enforcement.

While our officers
are facing an increasingly
dangerous environment,

we are seeing
a growing debate about

so-called "warrior cops,"

a term that I've heard
and the militarization
of police.

I think it's very important
to remind our fellow citizens

that we all tell a lie
to our children.

I have five children,
and all five of them have
woken up during the night,

afraid of monsters.

And so I have lied to them,

and I've told them that
monsters aren't real.

"Go back to sleep.
Monsters aren't real."

Monsters are real.

Monsters are barricaded
inside apartments

waiting for law
enforcement to respond

so they can fire rounds that
will pierce a ballistic vest.

Because of that reality,
because monsters are real,

we need a range of weapons
and equipment to respond

and protect
our fellow citizens
and protect ourselves.

It is all the more
important that we,

as people who are responsible
for securing this country,

remain tightly connected
to each other.

And I thank you

for your commitment
to our joint terrorism
task forces

and to the fusion centers,

which are the embodiment
of that cooperation.

That is the way
we stay responsive

to a metastasizing
and changing threat.

CITIZEN: You don't need this.
You really don't.

I was a colonel...
I'm a retired colonel
in the Marine Corps.

I saw a sign back there
that said,

"We want more Mayberry
and less Fallujah."

And I spent a year
in Fallujah.

The way we do things
in the military

is called "task organization."

You take a command
and then you attach
units to it

in order to accomplish
the mission.

What's happening is we're
building a domestic military

because it's unlawful,
unconstitutional

to use American troops
on American soil.

So I don't know where we're
gonna use this many vehicles
and this many troops.

Concord is just one
little cog in the wheel.

We're building an army over
here and I can't believe that
people aren't seeing it.

My wife always told my kids...
MAN: Thank you very much.

...there's always free cheese
in the mousetrap.

I understand that
the police officers
run toward danger,

and that is
an admirable thing,

but we need to put things
into perspective.

This is from
the federal government's
National Safety Council.

Your chances of dying
from a terrorist attack

are one in 20 million.

So we need to put
the brakes on the fear

and we need to act rationally.

Terrorism works because
it makes people irrational,

and it makes them
destroy themselves.

That's what's happening.
MAN: Thank you very much.

If you had told me
20 years ago when
I was serving my country

and defending it
against the Soviet Union,

that someday we would have
armored personnel carriers

used to roam the streets
of Concord, New Hampshire,

I would have told you,
you were a raving lunatic.

Because that sort
of thing doesn't happen
here in America,

where people are free

and we have a government
that is a government of,

by and for the people.

So the idea that
we should have that,

just because it's free money.

It's not free money,
It's all of our money,

and it's more than just all
of our money, it's debt.

You know, and debt
is a form of slavery.

The more this country
goes into debt,

the heavier the chains
on all of us.

I will say that
I intend to vote in favor

of accepting, um, the federal
money to purchase a Bearcat.

WOMAN: Counselor Blanchard.
BLANCHARD: Yes.

WOMAN: Counselor Dililacona.
DILILACONA: Yes.

WOMAN: Counselor Grady Sexton.
GRADY SEXTON: Yes.

Counselor Patton.
PATTON: No.

WOMAN: Counselor Sheech.
SHEECH: Yes.

Motion's adopted, 11 to 4.

BOB RUSSELL: These are coming
back from overseas.

Iraq, Kuwait, Afghanistan,

trains come in daily.

They're coming back
to be demilitarized,

put away or sold
as foreign sales.

They're evaluated

and then they issue them
to the law enforcement.

They supposedly
have been cleared.

You shouldn't find any
human anatomy in there.

They pretty well
purge them out.

But unfortunately,
it still gets through.

You'll find it every
once in a while.

There's no way around it.
War is war.

The big thing is to teach
them how to maneuver the truck
to prevent the rollovers.

Unfortunately, we never
train the law enforcement,

so they're kind of out
there on their own.

This is an MRAP vehicle
we acquired through
the 1033 program.

The 1033 program is
a government program that
funnels military property

that is no longer used
to local law enforcement.

I haven't driven
this one yet, so this
will be my first drive.

Oopsie.

This is Lieutenant Tony,
he handles the 1033
program for me,

and usually what happens
with the 1033 program,

they'll put the available
equipment on the site,

so you keep checking
the site repeatedly

to see if any
of that equipment there

would benefit your
agency or your county.

So we may not be
looking for nothing,

but we might see something
on there tomorrow
that "Oh we could use that."

I think the main place
we would use this vehicle

is in incidents where
the public is being threatened
with the use of a firearm

or any time we do
a drug search warrant.

Often times those
are no-knock warrants

and we use the tactical
team for those entries

and we would respond
with this vehicle in those
situations as well.

SEN. COBURN: How did we ever
get to the point where we
think states need MRAPS?

Tell me, how do they decide
if an MRAP's appropriate

for a community of my
hometown, 35,000 people?

ALAN ESTEVEZ: An MRAP
is a truck, Senator, with...

No, it's not a truck, it's a
48,000-pound offensive weapon.

ESTEVEZ: It is not
an offensive weapon, Senator.

It can be used
as an offensive weapon.

ESTEVEZ: When we give an MRAP,
it does not have
a 50-caliber weapon on it.

It's not an offensive weapon.
It is a protective vehicle.

In Dr. Coburn's state,
the Payne City
sheriff's office

has one full-time
sworn officer,

one.

They've gotten
two MRAPS since 2011.

How in the world
can anyone say

that this program has
one lick of oversight

if those two things
are in existence?

ESTEVEZ: The rule of thumb is

one MRAP for a police
department that
requests an MRAP.

No more than one.

So I'd have to look
at the incident

in Senator Coburn's state.

Uh, Mr. Estevez,
in the NPR investigation

of the 1033 program,

they listed 12,000 bayonets
had been given out.

What purpose are bayonets,
being given out for?

Senator, bayonets are
available under the program.

I can't answer
what a local police force
would need a bayonet for...

RAND PAUL: I can give you
an answer. None.

In FEMA's authorized
equipment list,

there's actually written
descriptions for how
the equipment should be used,

and it says it's specifically
not supposed to be used
for riot suppression.

Mr. Kamoie, uh,

is that true that it's
not supposed to be used
for riot suppression?

There's a prohibition in
the authorized equipment list

that it's not to be
used for riot suppression.

But many of the police
forces actually think
that this is what

the equipment would be
good for is riot suppression

in a big city in an urban area

and you've specifically
instructed that it's
not for that.

CLAIRE McCASKILL: I want
to make sure that
the record is clear,

36% of the property issued
is new and not used.

In other words, almost 40%

of what you are giving away

has never been used
by the military.

What they said is it's
in Condition Code A.

Condition Code A is like new.

Okay, well, I guarantee you
the stuff you're giving away
you're continuing to buy.

I guarantee it.

So tell me how that happens.

Senator, I'll have
to go through...

McCASKILL: It's 36%
of what you're giving away,

you have no idea what it is
you're giving away that's new?

I'll have to go through
the list, Senator,

and I'll be happy
to take your question
for the record on that.

McCASKILL: I want to make
sure that the record is clear.

Do any of you
now have any policy

that requires you to track
any kind of usage data

for the equipment you're
providing that is considered
military grade?

Yes or no?
No.

No.

McCASKILL: Not good.

(PROTESTERS MARCHING
IN DISTANCE)

EZELL: Move in!

Threat!

Threat!

Threat!

All right, guys,
let's go load up again.

EZELL: I would say 40%
of the team is prior military.

We are preparing pretty much
for any type of situation.

Of course, anything dealing
with ISIS is a concern.

We do a lot of training
with, uh, WMD,

weapons of mass destruction.

We do a lot of training
in the event that
we had a situation

like what they
had, uh, in Missouri.

Any type of

unruly crowds that
we would have to deal
with on civil disturbance.

Move!

Move!

Move!

EZELL: Good job, guys.

Guys, listen!

We're moving up to a building,
we're getting overwhelming
firepower.

That's what it's
gonna be like it.

Cover him,
one person's moving.

We need to get up there
as quick as possible.

And you could see how
dynamic that was, right?

You guys did it in reverse.

Good job. Heart rate's up.

All right, we're getting ready
to execute a search warrant.

Entry team, you'll take
a direct approach
to the house,

hit the front door and
hold everything inside.

I have seen photos
of the target with kids,

so I think he has kids,

but I haven't seen kids there,

haven't seen any kind
of kid toys in the yard.

He is there right now.

Twenty to 30 minutes ago
there were more
players there.

So if anybody's there,
they're all gonna
be in the process.

We're gonna take
them all down.

Anybody got any questions?

SWAT OFFICER: It's going
to be right around this curve
on the left-hand side.

It'll be an open field
and then the target.

Right here.

Right here.
Yeah, this is it.

Go!

SWAT TEAM:
Don't move! Don't move!

Hands up!
Hands up!

Lemme see your hands!
Get down!

Hands up!

Hands up! Get down!

Lemme see your hands.

Go! Go! Go!

Hands up! Hands up!

Get down!
Hands up!

Hands together
like you're praying.

Hands together
like you're praying, sir.

Police search!

Get up on that couch now!

Yeah, it's that serious.

Boy, that was sweet.

That was sweet.

Man, they were
in there so fast.

It sounded like
a flash bang
running in there.

It's clear. It's clear.

There's got to be
some guns here.

SWAT OFFICER 2:
We've been to this
house before.

Oh yeah,
we go to the same houses.

Some of the doors,
you'll see where we
knocked it in the last time,

there'll still be
the dent in the door.

Yeah, we do a lot.

Two hundred of these
a year, easy.

It used to be
we'd do three to four a day.

There was a book bag
that was here,

it had a little
bit of weed in it.

It was just loose bud.

You're gonna go to jail today
for simple possession
of marijuana, second offense.

Come over here for a minute.
Come and talk back here.

You know you had
a little bit of weed
inside that book bag, right?

I'm not, I mean...

I'm not saying...
I never one time said
that you were a bad person.

I just got a job to do,

and you just happen
to be in the middle
of it, right?

You go to school, right?
Yeah.
Denmark Technical College.

What are you trying to do?

Building construction
technology.

MAN: What are we gonna
do about the damn
windows man?

Sir?

I mean, can you do
shit like that?

Yeah.

I mean we gotta pay for
the fucking windows
like that down there?

That's some
shit there, man.

Did you have
a question for me?

Yeah, I was asking
what they going to do
about the windows, man?

I mean, are we
supposed to get
the windows fixed?

They just blew
the fucking
window out, man?

It's a distractionary
technique.

It's just what they did,
they felt they
needed to do it.

The moral of the story
is don't sell drugs
from the residence,

or don't have people...
Don't allow...

I didn't actually say
you were, I just said you're
associated with it.

I can see that you would
possibly have an affiliation.

Just from the stuff
that I've seen.

If you were on the outside
looking in maybe, right?

Do you want to leave
those keys with them?

OFFENDER:
Yeah, my keys and my money.

How much is this?

All right come
over here.

Tell her to get...
The Stihl weed eater.

You got him?
OFFICER: Copy.

Nobody checked him.
WOMAN: That's what I said.

That's like $1,000.
WOMAN: I know.

He wants me to give
it to that guy,

but I think we
should seize it.

I think we should
seize it, because it
was found on his person.

Twenty, 40, 60...

I'm just going to
put currency here.

It's out of his pocket.
Somebody else want
to count that?

I'll give him
the change and
the lighter.

Hey, this right here
was in your son's pocket.

He had cash that's
getting seized

but that's the remainder
of the change that he
had in his pocket.

He had some more money
in his pocket, but
it's getting taken.

We located a small
amount of marijuana.

Just a small amount of
marijuana, personal use
it appeared to be.

And that's about it.
It happens.

Drug warrants are,
you know, 50/50.

That's why we search it.

WOMAN: I heard a big bam.

I thought somebody
was gonna get robbed
or something.

I didn't know what to expect.

The first thing I asked him,

"Ya'll looking for
a terrorist? Ya'll think
a terrorist in here?"

'Cause that's the kind
of feeling that I had.

They were looking for
something really strong,
really important.

I mean...

Government stuff.

They tore down my house.

My son went to jail

for a gram and a half
that they shook out the
bottom of a book bag.

Wrong church, wrong people,
wrong day...

Soon will be done,
the trouble of
this world.

Repeat after me.

Emmanuel.

Emmanuel.

Repeat after me.

Emmanuel.

Emmanuel.

Emmanuel.

God is with us.

What's that?

Uh, visiting with
these six individuals...

And I've said this before.

When they describe

their youth and
their childhood,

these are...

These are young people who

made mistakes that
aren't that different

than the mistakes I made,

and the mistakes that
a lot of you guys make.

The difference is
they did not have

the kind of
support structures,

the second chances,

the resources,

that would allow them
to survive those mistakes.

And I think we have a
tendency sometimes to

take for granted
or think it's normal

that so many young people

end up in our criminal
justice system.

It's not normal.

What is normal is

young people making mistakes.

That's what strikes me.

Justice for Mike Brown!

Justice for Mike Brown!

Justice for Mike Brown!

Justice for Mike Brown!

Justice for Mike Brown!

Justice for Mike Brown!

Give me a U!
U!

Give me a S!
S!

Give me a T!
T!

You guys need to move up
and down the sidewalk

one way or the other.

Come on...

Hands up, don't shoot!

Hands up, don't shoot!

OFFICER :
You must remain
on the sidewalk!

You must continue to move!

If you stop, you
will be arrested!

Keep moving, sir!

Sir, keep moving!

Stop!

WOMAN: What is going on,
what happened?

WOMAN: Yo, Rob!
OFFICER: Off the street.

Respect us! Respect us!

Get out of the street!

Get out of the street!

Where's your
badge number?

They don't have
names, badges,
nothing.

CROWD:
United we stand,
divided we fall!

United we stand,
divided we fall!

United we stand,
divided we fall!

United we stand,
divided we fall!

MAN: I'm the boss,
motherfucker.

I tell you what to do,
you don't tell me.

I tell your ass to grow.

Grow!

SWAT OFFICER 1:
We're getting ready to go
do a search warrant.

This is supposed to
be a stash house.

There's missing 16 pistols
and three long guns still

from the burglary
in Wintsville.

We'll recognize
a lot of people
that have been

in Ferguson protesting,
as well,

and a lot of these guys
all know each other,

so we're just worried that
a lot of these
guns will end up

on the streets down there,

and will be used against us.

SWAT OFFICER 2:
We're waiting for the copy
of the warrant.

SWAT OFFICER 3:
Do you know how to get there?

No.
All right.

So what I'll do is
we'll pull it up
on my phone,

on Carabella's phone.
We'll pass our phones around.

That way, no telling
how old the picture is.

We'll just work with
what we have.
Google Maps.

We're gonna do Google mapping.

Got any numbers anywhere?

Yeah, I can't
confirm it though.

They're too blurry.

It's 5759 though, right?

No.

5957.
Uh, dyslexia.

Hey Bruce, did you make it?

SWAT OFFICER 2:
We'll be van correct,
All right?

Carabella, one.
Taylor's two.
I'm three.

Poindexter's four.
Dan Lemon, five,
with the pry,

Callahan, six.
Murphy, seven.

Brewster McCoy,
ram and react, tack A.

SWAT OFFICER 1:
Hey guys, this is supposed
to be a stash house.

They say these guys
store guns everywhere.

They find them in
cereal boxes, false
floors, in the walls.

They think that
a lot of these
are in the...

There's possibly a
tote in the backyard.

First, Sarge, we're
gonna knock right?

Knock first?
Yes.

All right, we're 11 minutes
away from the target
house without traffic.

What a lovely morning.

Yeah, we're coming up.

SWAT OFFICER 2: If you look
to your immediate left
right there just...

Hey, there's a car right there
out in front, the doors open.

Three on the porch, guys.
Three in the garage.

Oh, boy, they're
gonna have runners.

Open that door.
Open that door
all the way.

Hey, Sarge, pull all
the way up to
the white car.

Pull 'em down to bypass.
Leave a guy on 'em, and go.

Yeah, three in the garage.

Three in the garage.

Get your hands up!
County police!

County police!
Get your hands up!

County police.

County police search warrant!

County Police search warrant!

Ah, my back.

Your back?

MAN: Oh, shit!

Hold on, hold on.

WOMAN: You can't do his
body like that.

I'm trying to get
him out of the rain.

Sarge, we're clear.

We're clear, Sarge.

SWAT OFFICER 1:
Being the county police,

any municipality inside
of St. Louis County

or any of the federal
agencies can call us

and we'll come and execute
the search warrants.

This is a...

A federal case,
we just execute
the search warrant,

clear the house and then

turn the scene over to them
as soon as the house is clear.

MAN :
Is it right to continue
to kill African-American boys

and get no time?

Is it right to gun down

African-American
males just because

someone had a fit and decided

that they wanted
to continue to shoot?

MAN 2: We already
know the verdict.

We knew the verdict yesterday.

The grand jury
deliberated over
two days,

making their final decision.

They determined that
no probable cause exists

to file any charge
against Officer Wilson

and returned a no-true bill

on each of the
five indictments.

MAN :
Residents of
Ferguson, Missouri.

Get on to the sidewalk.

You need to get
out of the street

or you will be
subject to arrest.

Do it now.

Get onto the sidewalk!

Get on the sidewalk!

OFFICER: Stop trying
to turn over the police
vehicle immediately.

OFFICER:
They're throwing it on?

MAN 1: I'm not even in
the street, dick!

MAN 2: We ain't
even in the street!

Get out of the car!

It's sad!
You people!

It's just sad!
You people!

All these people
that live here!

We're still fucking dying!
What are they going
to eat now?

We're still
fucking dying!
So starve the babies?

Where are they going
to get baby food?

Where are they gonna get milk?

I've known you for
a long time, bro,
a long time!

Since you were this big.

Ya'll still
killing us!

Twenty-five years
I've been here.

Twenty-five years
years here, I've never
killed a man!

All right, back up.

OFFICER :
You need to return to your
vehicles immediately.

OFFICER 2: Move, move!

Move!

I'm sitting out here right
by my motherfucking house.

This is some bullshit
out there, ya'll. Bullshit.

Come on.

I don't hate you, bro.

Come on.

You know the truth.
I don't hate you though.

All right, brother.

I know families need to live.

Move, move!

Back up!

Back up!

MAN: Where do you want
me to back up to?
Back up!

What happened in Ferguson,

the actual practice
of how the demonstrations
were handled,

I think we're all embarrassed
by it, quite frankly,
in law enforcement.

I sat there aghast
watching it.

You know,
the simplest issue

of the use of tear gas.

In my book,
if you fire tear gas,
you've got a riot now.

You don't have
a demonstration.

So...

I don't know if
there's a uh...

I guess I have
to be sensitive
when I say this.

If there's a political gain

in some communities

for handling

different events
in different fashions.

Uh, Danny Brown?

DANNY BROWN: What I want
to say I did 19 years
in prison

for a murder I didn't commit
and I'm still fighting.

I've been out since 2001.

When I got out in 2001,

they were having riots
right up here in Cincinnati

for that last police shooting.

Now we talk about the riots

that they had in Ferguson.

Well, shoot, when this
country was started
on riots,

when they felt
they weren't
getting justice.

You cannot keep
treating people
the same way.

You have to deal with
your hiring practices,

who you putting
in them uniforms,

because a badge
is a powerful thing.

And sometimes it's like money,

it plays tricks
on people's mind.

They think they're God.

And that's the
truth, you know.

It's simple as that.
Thank you, Mr. Brown.

Members of the Task Force,

in the near future

body cameras will be
as commonplace in
policing as sidearms,

handcuffs and portable radios.

As a police chief,
I always feel

like I'm behind the curve
when it comes to technology.

Today we're talking
about body cameras,

tomorrow we'll be
talking about
something else.

Technology is moving
at a pace where

laws can't keep up with it,

policies can't keep
up with it.

License-plate readers,

most departments have that.

How long before
facial-recognition software

is now applied and as
you're driving down the street

you're scanning
faces of people?

Just because you
can do something

doesn't necessarily
mean you should do it.

And we need to have
these discussions upfront.

If a technology can
implicate people's
civil rights,

then it's something that
we need to consider

quite carefully

before we simply fling
it into the field.

SUSAN DelBENE: The FBI
deployed aircraft over
Ferguson last year

in response to request
from local law enforcement.

Is that correct?

Yes, we've done
it in Baltimore,

we did it in Ferguson,
as I recall.

Does the FBI respond to these
types of requests frequently?

The overwhelming use
of our aircraft is

a pilot flies as part
of an investigation

to help us follow a spy,

a terrorist or a criminal.

And sometimes,
the best view of
that is above.

ROSS McNUTT: I spent
20 years in the Air Force.

I built a system
called "Angelfire"

that allowed us to watch
the entire town of Fallujah,

for two years.

We could watch the whole city,

see where everyone
came from and went to,

and that contributed
significantly

to the reduction
in violence in
the city.

When I retired,

I basically said
"You know this has a lot
of applications.

"How do we make it affordable

"For a group the size of,
like, Dayton, Ohio?"

Our imagery is processed
onboard the aircraft,

made to look just like
Google Earth,

downlinked in about
three to five seconds,

and is available to be viewed
by up to 50 people at once.

Literally, you could have
the equivalent of
a predator drone

for every analyst
on the ground,

just not quite
as high resolution.

If you're at the
scene of a crime,

we draw a little
circle around it.

We figure out
"Here's the people that
are within that range

"That may or may not
be involved in it."

We'll track all of
them and see what
information we can find.

We're really just rolling
this out in a more public way.

Traditionally, we've
worked with small groups

in a quiet, secretive way

because that's what
our customers wanted.

We've been operating
in different cities

at different times, typically
ones that are having
significant crime problems.

In some of the cities,

we'll see 30 to 40
crimes a mission,

and then it's a
question of how many

of them do we have
time to investigate.

And again, as the
city gets safer,

we'll actually be
able to investigate

lower and lower level crimes.

This is an engineer's
version of an eyeball

with the globe in the middle.

And it basically implies

that you know,
"We're watching the whole
world" type of thing.

We're not out to watch
the whole world,

just all the world
that's got crime.

Okay, what I'm engaged in is

forecasting what we
call "malfeasance,"

which is various
kinds of behavior

which may be illegal,
but certainly undesirable.

You get background information

on an individual from
an archival data-set,

and you push a button,

and you get a forecast.

Pretty good chance
this a low-risk person,

almost no chance they're
gonna commit a violent crime.

They may do some shoplifting
or maybe some drug possession,

but chances are they're
gonna be fine.

So here's another individual.

Bad guy.

Certain to be arrested
for something,

most likely a violent crime,

but at least some
other kind of crime.

If somebody is really unique,

this doesn't work.

But we all think we're
unique and we're not.

So we have lots
of commonalities.

And on the average,
we can forecast pretty well.

There are concerns
about these techniques

and they're legitimate.

Race, of course, is
the most obvious one.

The obvious point
is you really shouldn't
be using somebody's race

to forecast whether
or not they're going
to commit a crime.

Well, it's a balance.

If it were to turn out that
race is an important factor,

let's say in predicting
homicides,

and race is associated
with homicides.

People generally kill
people like themselves.

Maybe you do want to use race.

If we don't use race,

you're gonna have
an increase perhaps

in homicides you
could have prevented.

How many deaths,
five, ten, fifteen,

are you prepared
to allow because

you won't allow
me to use race?

OFFICER: Have you guys
been watching
Person of Interest?

You ever watch that?

It's some secret computer
that one man has developed

that predicts crime
before it happens.

Why not, you know?

Why not predict something?

If you have everything
you need in the equation,

I don't see why it couldn't
be predicted, at some point.

So...

Right now, the car
that you're in,

we have a camera system,

and we also have
a system where

it's a facial-recognition
system,

license-plate
recognition system.

It scans the streets

and it can look at a
license plate and tell you

if that car is
wanted for a crime.

Let's see if I can get
it to do that here.

There you go.

So right there,
all the different licenses,

and it scans, like that
is that car right there.

And then also people
on the street,

if they can get
the face clearly,

facial recognition.

If that person has a warrant,
wanted, that type of thing.

And if you're out
in public, there's no
expectation of privacy,

and that's the huge
issue, people said,

"You can't just run
my license plate
for no reason."

Well, yes, we can.

You just hope that
everybody who runs them

are running them
for the right reason.

We are a 24/7 operation

providing support and
information processing

for the entire department.

We also share our services

to the entire region and
the federal government.

We're monitoring,
for example, cameras.

We have about 1,000 cameras
in the city of Los Angeles.

Additionally, we monitor
all social media.

We have police officers
who are going through

all the social media,

looking for key words

to find out if there's
any incidents occurring,

any protests or anything
that may affect the city.

I don't think it's
going to be a phase

for technology in policing.

It's the way policing
is going towards right now.

On this matter
of forecasting
criminal behavior,

among our set of individuals

who we're considering
to release from prison,

we have Darth Vaders
and Luke Skywalkers,

but we don't know
which is which.

Anybody who has a hint of
Darth Vader characteristics,

we call them a Darth Vader.

In contrast,

to call somebody
a Luke Skywalker,

that requires really
compelling evidence

because we want
to be really...

How do I say this
in an effective way?

We really want to be sure

that we catch all
the Darth Vaders

and we're prepared
to make some mistakes

on the Luke Skywalkers.

I can't breathe!
I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

RICHARD BERK:
We've done some work with
family-support services.

In essence, we're collecting
information on the parents.

Sometimes those parents have
no criminal record whatsoever,

but if we had information,
for example,

about their drug histories,

about their educational
circumstances,

about whether
they're employed,

psychiatric problems,
all sorts of things,

we might be able to forecast
which kids are at risk

before they're born.

That'd be pretty neat.

We could also forecast
perhaps before they're born

whether they're a high
risk to commit a homicide
by the age of 18.

I think that's all very doable

with the information
that's out there.

My problem is, what do
you tell a mother?

The child has not been
born yet, and we say to her,

"Your kid has a
50/50 chance

"of committing a homicide
by the age of 18."

I don't know what
you do with that.

I don't know what
she does with that.

With all technology,

we constantly are at
these decision points where

it can be used for good
or it can be used for bad.

This is just another
example of that.

It's a little more
scary because

it sort of fundamentally
goes to so much of the way

we live and the way
our societies work.

BERK: Right now drones are
controlled by pilots,

but there's already
technology in place

in which they're robotic
and make their own decisions.

And we now have drones
that can fly in formation.

And they can talk
to one another.

And they can make
decisions about whether

to fire a Hellfire
missile or not.

Who makes that decision?

The computer can
make it more quickly
and more accurately

than you or I can.

So maybe we should
let them decide?

Well, that's...

Now we're starting
to move down the
Terminator route, right?

We have robotic intelligence

that can destroy human life

when it thinks it's an
appropriate thing to do.

Do you want to go there?
I think it's inevitable
because those sorts of

war machines are going
to be more effective,

more powerful, more accurate

than what we
currently now have.

I can't believe we're
not gonna go there.

I don't know how as humans
we're going to moderate

the bad things that
can follow from that.

But it's inevitable.

It's already sort of there.

GROSSMAN: Ever heard the old
saying, "It's gotta get worse
before it gets better"?

Oh, it's gonna
get worse, folks.

We are at war!

And you are the front-line
troops in this war!

And folks, I want you
to understand something.

When they come to
murder the children,

the individuals who
tried to disarm our cops

will be hunted down,

and across the nation
they will be attacked,

they will be spit on,

they will be driven deep
into their slimy little holes,

so they never come out again.

In the very near future,

the idiots trying
to disarm our cops...

Folks, there ain't
nobody in Mexico right now

complaining about
militarization of police.

You understand?

There ain't nobody in Russia

complaining about
militarization of police.

In the very near future,
you will be vindicated.

The bad news,

the wolf is at the door,
very bad times are coming.

Good news?

You have job security, yeah,

because the world desperately
needs what you have to give.
