GOING FORWARD AND IT IS AN ISSUE

189
00:07:23,843 --> 00:07:28,147
OF BEING WATCHED. WE DON'T WANT

191
00:07:29,315 --> 00:07:30,349

ON THE SOCIAL HOUSING EXPANSION,

195
00:07:36,823 --> 00:07:37,924
DISABILITY ACCESS AND THE DOZENS

00:07:37,924 --> 00:07:43,196

FUNDS STOPPED BY ENDING THE 

203
00:07:58,544 --> 00:07:59,345
DEEPLY UNPOPULAR PIRATES OF 

204
00:07:59,345 --> 00:08:00,513
CAMERAS EARLY. THE MAYOR IS 

205
00:08:00,513 --> 00:08:01,547
GETTING A LOT OF FLAK FOR 

206
00:08:01,547 --> 00:08:02,248
SOMETHING THAT THE PREVIOUS

208
00:08:03,449 --> 00:08:04,684
THIS COUNCIL CAN UNDO . IT IS 

209
00:08:04,684 --> 00:08:06,285
NOT TOO LATE TO REVERSE COURSE. 

210
00:08:06,285 --> 00:08:07,119
THE ANGER BY THE COMMUNITY IS 

211
00:08:07,119 --> 00:08:10,189
NOT GOING AWAY AND THERE IS NO 

212
00:08:10,189 --> 00:08:11,791
PR SOLUTION FOR IT EITHER ON THE

FINANCIAL COST OF THIS PILOT 

224
00:08:30,009 --> 00:08:31,410
MAYBE A SUNK ONE BUT THE DAMAGE 

225
00:08:31,410 --> 00:08:37,817
ITSELF IS ONGOING. I WOULD ALSO 

226
00:08:37,817 --> 00:08:38,784
LIKE TO ADDRESS THE EFFICACY OF 

227
00:08:38,784 --> 00:08:39,919
THE CAMERAS ITSELF AND THEIR 

228
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:41,787
ROLL, OR NON-ROLE , I DON'T 

229
00:08:41,787 --> 00:08:43,022
KNOW WHICH, IN THE SHOOTING, AND

230
00:08:43,022 --> 00:08:46,759
THE INVESTIGATION THAT HAPPENED 

231
00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:48,027
IN RAINIER. THE FOOTAGE THAT IS 

232
00:08:48,027 --> 00:08:48,594
BEING CIRCULATED INCLUDES 

233
00:08:48,594 --> 00:08:49,695
FOOTAGE FROM THE METRO BUS THAT 

234
00:08:49,695 --> 00:08:51,063
IS NOT CONNECTED TO THESE CAMERA

235
00:08:51,063 --> 00:08:54,634
NETWORKS. IT IS RECORDED TO A 

236
00:08:54,634 --> 00:08:55,935
LOCAL DVR THAT WAS RAPIDLY 

237
00:08:55,935 --> 00:08:58,137
RETRIEVED WITHOUT CREATING A 

238
00:08:58,137 --> 00:08:58,938
SURVEILLANCE DRAGNET. THERE IS 

239
00:08:58,938 --> 00:09:09,248
SOMEWHERE ON THE SPECTRUM -- 

240
00:09:09,248 --> 00:09:10,149
THERE ARE CHANGES POSSIBLE TO 

241
00:09:10,149 --> 00:09:11,617
THE SYSTEM THAT DON'T REQUIRE A

242
00:09:11,617 --> 00:09:12,385
SYSTEM LIKE THIS TO BE 

243
00:09:12,385 --> 00:09:13,052
IMPLANTED. THANK YOU. 

244
00:09:13,052 --> 00:09:14,420
>> THANK YOU. NEXT WE HAVE 

245
00:09:14,420 --> 00:09:17,957
CAROLYN FOLLOWED BY GARY AND

00:09:17,957 --> 00:09:18,391
THEN BETH. 

247
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:21,827
>> HELLO. WELCOME. TAKE YOUR 

248
00:09:21,827 --> 00:09:30,636
TIME. YOU ARE ALL GOOD. THANK 

249
00:09:30,636 --> 00:09:34,807
YOU. 

250
00:09:34,807 --> 00:09:36,642
>> OKAY. I AM GOING TO TURN. I 

251
00:09:36,642 --> 00:09:37,677
AM CAROLYN MALONE, 910 MARYLAND.

252
00:09:37,677 --> 00:09:39,512
I AM A SENIOR. I AM GOING TO 

253
00:09:39,512 --> 00:09:40,313
ADDRESS THE AUDIENCE INSTEAD OF 

254
00:09:40,313 --> 00:09:42,815
COUNCIL BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WHEN 

255
00:09:42,815 --> 00:09:45,217
THE ISSUE IS UNPOPULAR AND 

256
00:09:45,217 --> 00:09:51,524
POLICE ARE INVOLVED, I CANNOT 

257
00:09:51,524 --> 00:09:53,225
STATE THIS TO COUNCIL. I COME TO

258
00:09:53,225 --> 00:09:55,161
THE CHAMBERS TO MAKE AN 

259
00:09:55,161 --> 00:09:56,562
APPOINTMENT AND TALK TO THEM BUT

260
00:09:56,562 --> 00:09:57,863
THEY HAVE TIME TO TALK TO OTHERS

261
00:09:57,863 --> 00:09:59,298
BUT NOT MY HOUSING ISSUES AND 

262
00:09:59,298 --> 00:10:04,003
BECAUSE I AM AN UNSPOKEN BLACK 

263
00:10:04,003 --> 00:10:08,741
WOMAN -- I LIKE BEING OUTSPOKEN 

264
00:10:08,741 --> 00:10:10,109
ABOUT THINGS WORTHY TO TALK 

265
00:10:10,109 --> 00:10:11,010
ABOUT. IN MY SENIOR HOUSING, 

266
00:10:11,010 --> 00:10:12,311
CHANCERY PLACE APARTMENTS, THE 

267
00:10:12,311 --> 00:10:17,249
MANAGER JUST RIPPED OUT THE 

268
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:18,718
LAUNDRY ROOM. SO, WE DON'T KNOW

269
00:10:18,718 --> 00:10:24,457
WHERE WE ARE GOING TO WASH 

270
00:10:24,457 --> 00:10:25,491
INDEFINITELY. HE RIPPED OUT THE 

271
00:10:25,491 --> 00:10:26,559
WOMEN'S RESTROOM ON THE FIRST 

272
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,960
FLOOR. IT IS LIKE A PRISON THERE

273
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:33,499
NOW. THE PING-PONG TABLE WAS 

274
00:10:33,499 --> 00:10:35,735
REMOVED. THE TELEVISION, THE 

275
00:10:35,735 --> 00:10:42,174
REMOTE CONTROL HAS BEEN HIDDEN 

276
00:10:42,174 --> 00:10:42,775
AND JUST CONSTANT THINGS ARE 

277
00:10:42,775 --> 00:10:43,676
TAKEN AWAY AND WHENEVER I SPEAK 

278
00:10:43,676 --> 00:10:51,784
OUT, I GET A NOTICE ABOUT PAY UP

279
00:10:51,784 --> 00:10:53,152

280
00:10:53,152 --> 00:10:54,120
18, I WAS IN KING COUNTY 

281
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:54,987

282
00:10:54,987 --> 00:10:57,323
RIGHT TO REMAIN IN MY HOUSING OF

00:10:57,323 --> 00:11:01,894
ALMOST 7 YEARS. THE JUDGE SAW 

284
00:11:01,894 --> 00:11:03,396
THIS SCAM, SHAM, FRAUD AND 

285
00:11:03,396 --> 00:11:10,169
DISMISSED THE CASE AND THE NEXT 

286
00:11:10,169 --> 00:11:10,936
DAY, THE MANAGER RETALIATED BY

PUBLIC SAFETY CONCERN IS THE TOP

386
00:15:09,041 --> 00:15:10,109
PRIORITY IN THE CID COMMUNITY AS

00:15:10,109 --> 00:15:12,344

CENTER AND EVIDENCE-BASED 

392
00:15:26,825 --> 00:15:30,329
APPROACH THAT USES TECHNOLOGY TO

393
00:15:30,329 --> 00:15:36,535
REDUCE CRIME. THE RULE SAYS 

394
00:15:36,535 --> 00:15:41,373
ENFORCEMENT PURPOSE IS TO 

395
00:15:41,373 --> 00:15:42,441
PROHIBIT BY LAW AND POLICY. 

396
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:45,611
WITHOUT THE CCTV EVIDENCE, IT 

397
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:47,279
WOULD ALLOW THE PERPETRATOR TO 

398
00:15:47,279 --> 00:15:53,285
BE ARRESTED QUICKLY. WE ARE ALL 

399
00:15:53,285 --> 00:15:54,320
FRUSTRATED, STILL, NO FUTURE. 

400
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:55,454

SIGNIFICANT DROP IN CUSTOMERS 

402
00:15:58,023 --> 00:16:02,328

403
00:16:02,328 --> 00:16:03,128
PRECAUTIONS. ACCORDING TO THE

HIGH-TECH CCTV INCREASED SOLVING

406
00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,137
CASES BY THREE TIMES THAN THE 

407
00:16:12,137 --> 00:16:13,005
TRADITIONAL WAY. ACTUALLY, WE 

408
00:16:13,005 --> 00:16:16,642
DEMAND MORE CAMERAS AND HIGH 

409
00:16:16,642 --> 00:16:17,509

WAY TO REDUCE CRIME, PLEASE ALSO

415
00:16:30,089 --> 00:16:34,626
USE THE CCTV TECHNOLOGY FOR 

416
00:16:34,626 --> 00:16:37,763
DOUBLE SECURITY WHICH WOULD BE 

417
00:16:37,763 --> 00:16:38,797
HIGH-EFFICIENCY AND THERE IS NO 

418
00:16:38,797 --> 00:16:40,065
GOOD REASON TO REMOVE IT OR 

419
00:16:40,065 --> 00:16:50,609

BE HERE DESPITE THE RAIN. WE 

438
00:19:15,587 --> 00:19:21,193

443
00:19:25,330 --> 00:19:26,532
WHERE THERE WAS A SHOOTING MORE 

444
00:19:26,532 --> 00:19:28,233
A STABBING AND IT WAS GREAT TO 

445
00:19:28,233 --> 00:19:29,501
HAVE OFFICERS SAY WE CAUGHT THIS

446
00:19:29,501 --> 00:19:31,303

IS. THEY WENT TO THE PARK, THEY 

449
00:19:33,939 --> 00:19:35,007
WEREN'T THERE. IT WAS GREAT 

450
00:19:35,007 --> 00:19:36,275
THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE TO GO TO 

451
00:19:36,275 --> 00:19:42,080
ALL THE BUILDINGS AND LET 

452
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:43,382
EVERYONE KNOW THERE IS A PERSON 

453
00:19:43,382 --> 00:19:44,516
OUT THERE WHO WAS CAUSING HARM. 

454
00:19:44,516 --> 00:19:46,084
IT WAS GREAT THAT WE COULD FIND 

455
00:19:46,084 --> 00:19:49,688
THEM AND THAT BROUGHT A LOT OF 

456
00:19:49,688 --> 00:19:50,656
RELIEF TO OUR COMMUNITIES. WE 

457
00:19:50,656 --> 00:19:51,523
ALSO SAW DURING THE PANDEMIC 

458
00:19:51,523 --> 00:19:52,824
THAT MANY OF OUR ELDERS FELT 

459
00:19:52,824 --> 00:19:54,026
SAFE SO THEY WERE WALKING AROUND

460
00:19:54,026 --> 00:19:55,193
IN THE PARKING LOTS NEAR THEIR

462

464
00:19:59,298 --> 00:19:59,898
LOTS NEAR THEIR BUILDINGS 

465
00:19:59,898 --> 00:20:05,037

466
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:06,338

HELPED SPOT CRIME AND ALL THAT 

501
00:21:14,206 --> 00:21:17,542

CAMERAS ALSO DON'T PREVENT 

506
00:21:29,554 --> 00:21:37,729
CRIME. WHAT PREVENTS CRIME IS 

507
00:21:37,729 --> 00:21:38,697

>> THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES 

571
00:23:51,296 --> 00:23:51,930
UNION'S THEMSELVES HAVE SHOWN 

572
00:23:51,930 --> 00:23:52,764
THAT SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS DON'T

573
00:23:52,764 --> 00:23:56,735
HELP SOLVE CRIMES. THEY INCLUDE 

574
00:23:56,735 --> 00:23:57,969
THE WORDS OF ACTUAL POLICE CHIEF

575
00:23:57,969 --> 00:23:59,604
IN THIS. AT THE SAME TIME IT HAS

576
00:23:59,604 --> 00:24:02,140
BEEN PROVEN THAT I.C.E. HAS 

577
00:24:02,140 --> 00:24:03,008
SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS TO MONITOR 

578
00:24:03,008 --> 00:24:04,209
AND TARGET PEOPLE EVEN WHEN NOT 

579
00:24:04,209 --> 00:24:12,350
GRANTED EXPLICIT ACCESS THROUGH

00:24:12,350 --> 00:24:13,218
SIDE DOOR AND BACKDOOR 

581
00:24:13,218 --> 00:24:14,186
LOOPHOLES. THAT IS WHY WE NEED 

582
00:24:14,186 --> 00:24:15,120
THESE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS SHUT 

583
00:24:15,120 --> 00:24:16,521
DOWN. AT THE SAME TIME, WE ALSO 

584
00:24:16,521 --> 00:24:17,589
NEED MUNICIPAL I.D.s SO THAT 

585
00:24:17,589 --> 00:24:18,223
IMMIGRANTS CAN ACCESS SOCIAL 

586
00:24:18,223 --> 00:24:19,057
SERVICES WITHOUT THE FEAR 

587
00:24:19,057 --> 00:24:19,791
TRIGGERING FEDERAL SURVEILLANCE 

588
00:24:19,791 --> 00:24:22,093

590
00:24:22,961 --> 00:24:25,497
THAT INTO A PERMANENT BAN. ONE 

591
00:24:25,497 --> 00:24:36,041
YEAR IS NOT ENOUGH. I.C.E. WILL 

592
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:36,942
NOT BECOME MAGICALLY SOME 

593
00:24:36,942 --> 00:24:37,742
WHOLESOME CUDDLY ORGANIZATION A 

594
00:24:37,742 --> 00:24:39,044

595
00:24:39,044 --> 00:24:40,378
BE A PERMANENT BAN AS A CONCRETE

596
00:24:40,378 --> 00:24:41,346
STEP TOWARD SHUTTING DOWN I.C.E.

597
00:24:41,346 --> 00:24:42,280
ACROSS THE COUNTRY. CITY HALL 

598
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:48,487
HAS THE POWER TO DO THESE THINGS

599
00:24:48,487 --> 00:24:57,229
TODAY AND WE ARE TIRED OF CITY 

600
00:24:57,229 --> 00:24:58,296

BE HERE. I GO AROUND THE CITY 

606
00:25:04,636 --> 00:25:05,604
EVERY DAY. PEOPLE ARE ANGRY 

607
00:25:05,604 --> 00:25:06,972
ABOUT I.C.E. READY FOR IT TO END

608
00:25:06,972 --> 00:25:08,273

FOR MUCH MORE THAN JUST THE BARE

614
00:25:16,648 --> 00:25:17,516

AND RIGHT DUE TO FEARS OF I.C.E.

621

623
00:25:27,893 --> 00:25:29,094

00:29:05,910 --> 00:29:06,544
REELECTION AGAINST I.C.E. THAT 

728
00:29:06,544 --> 00:29:09,914
IS JUST NOT ENOUGH. THIS 

729
00:29:09,914 --> 00:29:11,049
ONE-YEAR BAN WAS ONLY WON UNDER 

730
00:29:11,049 --> 00:29:12,250
THE PRESSURE BUT IT IS TOTALLY 

731
00:29:12,250 --> 00:29:18,056
INADEQUATE. THAT BAN NEEDS TO BE

732
00:29:18,056 --> 00:29:18,923
PERMANENT. I.C.E. IS NOT GOING 

733
00:29:18,923 --> 00:29:21,292
TO BE OUR FRIEND IN A YEAR. THEY

734
00:29:21,292 --> 00:29:21,860
WILL STILL BE TERRORIZING 

735
00:29:21,860 --> 00:29:22,494
IMMIGRANTS AND BRUTALIZING OUR 

736
00:29:22,494 --> 00:29:23,128
NEIGHBORS. WE NEED EVEN MORE 

737
00:29:23,128 --> 00:29:24,262
THAN A PERMANENT BAN. BANNING 

738
00:29:24,262 --> 00:29:25,363
THE DETENTION CENTER SHOULD BE 

739
00:29:25,363 --> 00:29:33,138
THE FIRST STEP . WE NEED A 

740
00:29:33,138 --> 00:29:33,972
MUNICIPAL I.D. SYSTEM SO THAT 

741
00:29:33,972 --> 00:29:35,173
IMMIGRANTS CAN ACCESS PUBLIC 

742
00:29:35,173 --> 00:29:35,740
SERVICES WITHOUT TRIGGERING 

743
00:29:35,740 --> 00:29:36,674
I.C.E. WE NEED TO STOP I.C.E. 

744
00:29:36,674 --> 00:29:37,308
SURVEILLANCE. KATIE WILSON 

745
00:29:37,308 --> 00:29:38,243
PROMISED TO SHUT DOWN THE 

746
00:29:38,243 --> 00:29:43,815
SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS THAT ARE 

747
00:29:43,815 --> 00:29:48,019
BEING USED I.C.E. EVEN WITHOUT 

748
00:29:48,019 --> 00:29:49,020
THE CITY'S PERMISSION. INSTEAD,

749
00:29:49,020 --> 00:29:49,954
SHE HAS GONE BACK ON THAT 

750
00:29:49,954 --> 00:29:50,655
PROMISE. KATIE WILSON CALLS 

751
00:29:50,655 --> 00:29:51,956
YOURSELF A SOCIALIST BUT SHE IS 

752
00:29:51,956 --> 00:29:52,891
JUST ANOTHER DEMOCRAT. SHE HAS 

753
00:29:52,891 --> 00:29:54,159
PAUSED THE EXPANSION BUT THAT IS

754
00:29:54,159 --> 00:29:55,260
ALSO TOTALLY INADEQUATE. WE ARE 

755
00:29:55,260 --> 00:29:55,860
ALSO DEMANDING AN IMMEDIATE 

756
00:29:55,860 --> 00:29:56,528
EVICTION MORATORIUM. IMMIGRANTS 

757
00:29:56,528 --> 00:29:57,629
ARE LOSING INCOME FROM PEER 

758
00:29:57,629 --> 00:29:58,830
GOING TO WORK AMIDST AN ONGOING 

759
00:29:58,830 --> 00:29:59,664
COST-OF-LIVING CRISIS FOR ALL 

760
00:29:59,664 --> 00:30:00,632
WORKING PEOPLE. THESE ARE THINGS

761
00:30:00,632 --> 00:30:01,733
THAT COULD BUILD REAL PRESSURE 

762
00:30:01,733 --> 00:30:03,101
AGAINST TRUMP AND THE RIGHT WING

763
00:30:03,101 --> 00:30:04,369
TO STOP THE DEPORTATION HERE IN 

764
00:30:04,369 --> 00:30:05,236
SEATTLE AND AROUND THE COUNTRY. 

765
00:30:05,236 --> 00:30:06,204
SEATTLE ALSO SUPPOSEDLY HAS 

766
00:30:06,204 --> 00:30:10,375
SANCTUARY CITY LAWS AGAINST 

767
00:30:10,375 --> 00:30:11,242
I.C.E. BUT THE CHIEF OF THE 

768
00:30:11,242 --> 00:30:12,677
POLICE UNION HAS SAID SPD WILL 

769
00:30:12,677 --> 00:30:13,845
NOT FOLLOW THOSE LAWS. IF THE 

770
00:30:13,845 --> 00:30:14,779
CITY COUNCIL AND KATIE WILSON 

771
00:30:14,779 --> 00:30:16,147
ARE NOT GOING TO FORCE SPD TO 

772
00:30:16,147 --> 00:30:17,949
FOLLOW THE LAW AND WORKING 

773
00:30:17,949 --> 00:30:18,650
PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE COMMUNITY 

774
00:30:18,650 --> 00:30:19,884
CONTROL OF THE POLICE. WE SHOULD

775
00:30:19,884 --> 00:30:21,286
HAVE AN ELECTED GROUP OF WORKERS

776
00:30:21,286 --> 00:30:22,520
WITH THE ABILITY TO HIRE AND 

777
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:23,454
FIRE POLICE OFFICERS WHO BREAK 

778
00:30:23,454 --> 00:30:24,556
THE LAW. THE DEMOCRATS HERE ARE 

779
00:30:24,556 --> 00:30:25,723
NOT FRIENDS OF WORKING PEOPLE. 

780
00:30:25,723 --> 00:30:30,161
JOY HOLLINGSWORTH, COUNCIL 

781
00:30:30,161 --> 00:30:31,129
PRESIDENT ATTACKED THE MINIMUM 

782
00:30:31,129 --> 00:30:32,530
WAGE A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO TO 

783
00:30:32,530 --> 00:30:33,898
TRY TO CREATE A PERMANENT SUB 

784
00:30:33,898 --> 00:30:34,966
MINIMUM WAGE FOR THE LOWEST PAID

785
00:30:34,966 --> 00:30:36,768
WORKERS IN THE CITY. DEMOCRATIC 

786
00:30:36,768 --> 00:30:41,906
PARTY AS A WHOLE CREATED, 

787
00:30:41,906 --> 00:30:42,774
FUNDED, AND EXPANDED I.C.E. WE 

788
00:30:42,774 --> 00:30:44,409
WILL ONLY DO THIS IF WE BUILD A 

789
00:30:44,409 --> 00:30:45,476
WORKING CLASS MOVEMENT 

790
00:30:45,476 --> 00:30:46,144
INDEPENDENT OF THE DEMOCRATS. WE

791
00:30:46,144 --> 00:30:47,178
NEED TO DEFEAT PRO I.C.E. 

792
00:30:47,178 --> 00:30:48,046
DEMOCRATS LIKE ADAM SMITH AND 

793
00:30:48,046 --> 00:30:48,713
START ELECTING INDEPENDENT 

794
00:30:48,713 --> 00:30:49,847
SOCIALISTS LIKE FIFA FIVE. WE 

795
00:30:49,847 --> 00:30:50,949
NEED A NEW PARTY FOR WORKING 

796
00:30:50,949 --> 00:31:00,558
PEOPLE. STOP THE DEPORTATION! 

797
00:31:00,558 --> 00:31:01,893
>> THANK YOU, JASON. NEXT, WE 

798
00:31:01,893 --> 00:31:03,795
HAVE M FOLLOWED BY SOMMER, JIM, 

799
00:31:03,795 --> 00:31:05,163
AND THEN MICHAEL AND THEN ON THE

800
00:31:05,163 --> 00:31:06,297
NEXT PAGE WE HAVE NATHAN AND 

801
00:31:06,297 --> 00:31:13,037
THEN WE ARE GOING TO JUMP TO 

802
00:31:13,037 --> 00:31:14,839
ONLINE. WELCOME. 

803
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:16,674
>> MY NAME IS M SMITH. I AM A 

804
00:31:16,674 --> 00:31:17,675
MEMBER OF LABOR MILITANTS. WE 

805
00:31:17,675 --> 00:31:18,743
NEED REAL ACTION AGAINST I.C.E. 

806
00:31:18,743 --> 00:31:19,978
AND THE DEMOCRATS HAVE 

807
00:31:19,978 --> 00:31:20,612
COMPLETELY FAILED TO ACT. KATIE 

808
00:31:20,612 --> 00:31:21,846
WILSON HAS GONE BACK ON HER 

809
00:31:21,846 --> 00:31:27,385
PROMISE TO SHUT DOWN THE 

810
00:31:27,385 --> 00:31:30,255
SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS WHICH 

811
00:31:30,255 --> 00:31:31,289
I.C.E. IS USING. THIS IS 

812
00:31:31,289 --> 00:31:32,390
DOCUMENTED BUT IT IS NOT JUST 

813
00:31:32,390 --> 00:31:33,124
THE SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS. THE 

814
00:31:33,124 --> 00:31:34,525
DEMOCRATS HAVE DONE VIRTUALLY 

815
00:31:34,525 --> 00:31:35,193
NOTHING. THEY PASSED A ONE-YEAR 

816
00:31:35,193 --> 00:31:36,094
BAN ON I.C.E. DETENTION CENTERS 

817
00:31:36,094 --> 00:31:37,395
IN SEATTLE. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER A

818
00:31:37,395 --> 00:31:38,429
YEAR? I.C.E. ISN'T GOING TO 

819
00:31:38,429 --> 00:31:39,764
CHANGE IN A YEAR. WE NEED A 

820
00:31:39,764 --> 00:31:40,999
PERMANENT BAN. THERE WAS ANY 

821
00:31:40,999 --> 00:31:41,633
NUMBER OF THINGS THE DEMOCRATS 

822
00:31:41,633 --> 00:31:42,901
WILL BE DOING. YOU CAN BE 

823
00:31:42,901 --> 00:31:43,801
SHUTTING DOWN THE SURVEILLANCE 

824
00:31:43,801 --> 00:31:45,870
CAMERAS. YOU CAN BE PUTTING THAT

825
00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:46,838
CAMERAS UNDER COMMUNITY CONTROL.

826
00:31:46,838 --> 00:31:47,872
YOU CAN BE CREATING MUNICIPAL 

827
00:31:47,872 --> 00:31:52,644
I.D.s THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO 

828
00:31:52,644 --> 00:31:53,478
UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS. OTHER 

829
00:31:53,478 --> 00:31:54,846
CITIES HAVE DONE THAT. THERE WAS

830
00:31:54,846 --> 00:31:56,180
NO EXCUSE NOT TO DO IT. YOU 

831
00:31:56,180 --> 00:31:56,748
COULD BE PASSING COMMUNITY 

832
00:31:56,748 --> 00:31:58,116
CONTROL OF THE POLICE TO GET 

833
00:31:58,116 --> 00:31:59,150
ELECTED FOR THE POWER TO FIRE 

834
00:31:59,150 --> 00:32:00,485
COPS WHO ARE BREAKING THE LAW 

835
00:32:00,485 --> 00:32:01,586
WHICH THEY HAVE SAID THEY ARE 

836
00:32:01,586 --> 00:32:02,921
DOING. THEY HAVE SAID THEY ARE 

837
00:32:02,921 --> 00:32:03,888
NOT FOLLOWING THE EXECUTIVE 

838
00:32:03,888 --> 00:32:04,923
ORDER THAT WAS PASSED TO NOT 

839
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:05,890
COOPERATE WITH I.C.E. CAN BE 

840
00:32:05,890 --> 00:32:07,125
FIRING PRO I.C.E. COPS WHO ARE 

841
00:32:07,125 --> 00:32:08,826
BREAKING THE LAW BY COOPERATING 

842
00:32:08,826 --> 00:32:10,194
WITH I.C.E. IF THE DEMOCRATS ARE

843
00:32:10,194 --> 00:32:11,496
NOT DOING THAT. WE COULD PASS A 

844
00:32:11,496 --> 00:32:12,430
PERMANENT BAN ON DETENTION 

845
00:32:12,430 --> 00:32:17,068
CENTERS. WE COULD NOT -- PAST 

846
00:32:17,068 --> 00:32:17,635
EVICTION MORATORIUMS. THE 

847
00:32:17,635 --> 00:32:19,103
DEMOCRATS WILL NOT DO THIS BY 

848
00:32:19,103 --> 00:32:20,338
THEMSELVES AND I WANT TO TALK TO

849
00:32:20,338 --> 00:32:21,572
THOSE IN THE ROOM WHO HAVE 

850
00:32:21,572 --> 00:32:22,573
SPOKEN TO ARE CONCERNED ABOUT 

851
00:32:22,573 --> 00:32:28,146
CRIME IN THE COMMUNITY. HOW DO 

852
00:32:28,146 --> 00:32:28,913
WE SOLVE CRIME? FUNNELING 

853
00:32:28,913 --> 00:32:29,647
BILLIONS MORE INTO SURVEILLANCE 

854
00:32:29,647 --> 00:32:31,215
AND THE POLICE IS NOT GOING TO 

855
00:32:31,215 --> 00:32:32,784
DO IT. IT IS NOT GOING TO WORK. 

856
00:32:32,784 --> 00:32:43,294
THE DEMOCRATS BUDGET IS $486 

857
00:32:47,665 --> 00:32:48,866
MILLION IN THE 2026 BUDGET. WHAT

858
00:32:48,866 --> 00:32:49,734
DO WE NEED? ANOTHER HUNDRED 

859
00:32:49,734 --> 00:32:50,468
MILLION DOLLARS? $1 BILLION? 

860
00:32:50,468 --> 00:32:51,536
WHAT IS GOING TO STOP THIS 

861
00:32:51,536 --> 00:32:52,937
CRIME? IT IS INVESTMENT IN OUR 

862
00:32:52,937 --> 00:32:54,238
COMMUNITIES. IT IS IN FREE 

863
00:32:54,238 --> 00:32:54,972
CHILDCARE, HEALTHCARE. THAT IS 

864
00:32:54,972 --> 00:32:56,140
THE THING THAT IS GOING TO STOP 

865
00:32:56,140 --> 00:32:57,508
CRIME AND THAT IS THE THING THAT

866
00:32:57,508 --> 00:32:58,643
WILL STOP HOMELESSNESS. THAT IS 

867
00:32:58,643 --> 00:32:59,744
HOW WE SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS, NOT

868
00:32:59,744 --> 00:33:00,478
MORE POLICE AND MORE 

869
00:33:00,478 --> 00:33:01,479
SURVEILLANCE. WE NEED AN 

870
00:33:01,479 --> 00:33:02,080
INDEPENDENT PARTY BECAUSE THE 

871
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:03,147
DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS NOT DOING 

872
00:33:03,147 --> 00:33:04,282
THESE THINGS. KATIE WILSON JUST 

873
00:33:04,282 --> 00:33:05,750
SAID THAT SHE WILL BE CUTTING 

874
00:33:05,750 --> 00:33:06,684
TAXES ON BIG BUSINESS. NEED TO 

875
00:33:06,684 --> 00:33:07,685
BE INCREASING THOSE TAXES. WE 

876
00:33:07,685 --> 00:33:08,519
NEED AN INDEPENDENT SOCIALIST 

877
00:33:08,519 --> 00:33:09,988
PARTY THAT CAN THROW OUT EVERY 

878
00:33:09,988 --> 00:33:10,855
DEMOCRAT ON THIS COUNCIL AND 

879
00:33:10,855 --> 00:33:12,323
REPLACE THEM WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE

880
00:33:12,323 --> 00:33:13,257
GOING TO BITE FOR WORKING 

881
00:33:13,257 --> 00:33:16,327
PEOPLE. SOLIDARITY. SHUTDOWN 

882
00:33:16,327 --> 00:33:21,966
I.C.E. SHUTDOWN I.C.E.! SHUTDOWN

883
00:33:21,966 --> 00:33:25,436

I AM A MEMBER OF LABOR 

889
00:33:33,444 --> 00:33:34,746
MILITANTS. IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO 

890
00:33:34,746 --> 00:33:36,247
MONTHS SINCE RENEE GOOD WAS 

891
00:33:36,247 --> 00:33:37,181
KILLED. KATIE WILSON AT 

892
00:33:37,181 --> 00:33:37,682
DEMOCRATS INCLUDING THE 

893
00:33:37,682 --> 00:33:38,916
DEMOCRATS ON THE CITY COUNCIL 

894
00:33:38,916 --> 00:33:40,184
HAVE HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO TAKE 

895
00:33:40,184 --> 00:33:42,820
ACTION AGAINST I.C.E. AND YOU 

896
00:33:42,820 --> 00:33:43,955
HAVEN'T DONE IT. THE LATEST 

897
00:33:43,955 --> 00:33:44,956
NUMBERS SHOW THAT I.C.E. IS 

898
00:33:44,956 --> 00:33:45,790
ARRESTING NEARLY 300 PEOPLE A 

899
00:33:45,790 --> 00:33:46,891
MONTH IN WASHINGTON STATE AND 

900
00:33:46,891 --> 00:33:48,292
KATIE WILSON'S RESPONSE TO THE 

901
00:33:48,292 --> 00:33:53,431
SUSPECTED I.C.E. ABDUCTION A FEW

902
00:33:53,431 --> 00:33:54,665
DAYS AGO WAS THAT SHE WAS 

903
00:33:54,665 --> 00:33:55,366
MONITORING THE SITUATION. WE 

904
00:33:55,366 --> 00:33:56,467
NEED REAL ACTION AGAINST I.C.E..

905
00:33:56,467 --> 00:34:02,006
THAT IS WHY WE ARE HERE. KATIE 

906
00:34:02,006 --> 00:34:02,907
WILSON RAN FOR ELECTION 

907
00:34:02,907 --> 00:34:03,841
PROMISING TO SHUT DOWN THE 

908
00:34:03,841 --> 00:34:05,143
CAMERAS AND HOLD SPD ACCOUNTABLE

909
00:34:05,143 --> 00:34:05,943
AND INSTEAD SHE HAS EXPANDED THE

910
00:34:05,943 --> 00:34:07,111
CAMERAS AND IS LETTING SPD BREAK

911
00:34:07,111 --> 00:34:08,579
THE LAW. THEY ARE OPENLY TELLING

912
00:34:08,579 --> 00:34:14,285
HER THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW THE 

913
00:34:14,285 --> 00:34:16,421
LAW. THEY ARE GOING TO KEEP 

914
00:34:16,421 --> 00:34:17,321
COOPERATING WITH I.C.E. AND SHE 

915
00:34:17,321 --> 00:34:18,589
IS NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. 

916
00:34:18,589 --> 00:34:19,690
KATIE WILSON IS NOT CONCERNED 

917
00:34:19,690 --> 00:34:20,892
ABOUT CRIME. IF SHE WAS, SHE 

918
00:34:20,892 --> 00:34:21,793
WOULD BE FOLLOWING THROUGH ON 

919
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:22,794
HER OTHER PROMISES LIKE 

920
00:34:22,794 --> 00:34:23,294
UNIVERSAL CHILDCARE AND 

921
00:34:23,294 --> 00:34:24,362
AFFORDABLE HOUSING BUT SHE IS 

922
00:34:24,362 --> 00:34:25,263
DOING THE OPPOSITE. SHE HAS 

923
00:34:25,263 --> 00:34:26,063
ALREADY MET WITH BUSINESS 

924
00:34:26,063 --> 00:34:27,331
EXECUTIVES WHERE SHE PROMISED TO

925
00:34:27,331 --> 00:34:28,332
BE CUTTING TAXES FOR BIG 

926
00:34:28,332 --> 00:34:28,966
CORPORATIONS. THE DEMOCRATIC 

927
00:34:28,966 --> 00:34:31,269
PARTY IS NOT GOING TO DO 

928
00:34:31,269 --> 00:34:32,503
ANYTHING UNLESS THEY ARE FORCED.

929
00:34:32,503 --> 00:34:38,509
THEY HELPED CREATE I.C.E. AND 

930
00:34:38,509 --> 00:34:46,884
BUILD I.C.E. EVERY STEP OF THE 

931
00:34:46,884 --> 00:34:47,351
WAY. BIDEN ESCALATED 

932
00:34:47,351 --> 00:34:47,952
DEPORTATIONS AFTER TRUMP'S 

933
00:34:47,952 --> 00:34:49,287
FIRST TERM. WE NEED TO THROW 

934
00:34:49,287 --> 00:34:50,288
EVERY PRO I.C.E. DEMOCRAT OUT OF

935
00:34:50,288 --> 00:34:51,422
OFFICE. WE NEED TO THROW EVERY 

936
00:34:51,422 --> 00:34:52,824
SINGLE ONE OF YOU CITY COUNCIL 

937
00:34:52,824 --> 00:34:53,791
MEMBERS OUT OF OFFICE. NOT A 

938
00:34:53,791 --> 00:34:54,859
SINGLE DEMOCRAT ON THIS COUNCIL 

939
00:34:54,859 --> 00:34:56,027
HAS ENDORSED KSHAMA SAWANT WHO 

940
00:34:56,027 --> 00:34:57,161
IS RUNNING A PLATFORM OF 

941
00:34:57,161 --> 00:34:58,062
ABOLISHING I.C.E. SHE IS RUNNING

942
00:34:58,062 --> 00:34:59,497
AGAINST ADAM SCHMIDT WHO VOTED 

943
00:34:59,497 --> 00:35:00,531
TO FUND I.C.E. THE DEMOCRATS ARE

944
00:35:00,531 --> 00:35:01,732
NOT GOING TO ABOLISH I.C.E. THEY

945
00:35:01,732 --> 00:35:03,067
WON'T EVEN STAND UP TO PEOPLE 

946
00:35:03,067 --> 00:35:04,502
LIKE ADAM SMITH. THE ONLY WAY TO

947
00:35:04,502 --> 00:35:10,475
FORCE THEM AS TO BUILD SOLELY 

948
00:35:10,475 --> 00:35:11,342
INDEPENDENT OF THE DEMOCRATIC 

949
00:35:11,342 --> 00:35:12,443
PARTY. SOCIALISTS NEED TO HAVE A

950
00:35:12,443 --> 00:35:13,010
SERIOUS CONVERSATION ABOUT 

951
00:35:13,010 --> 00:35:14,178
STRATEGY. WE NEED TO BUILD A 

952
00:35:14,178 --> 00:35:15,246
SOCIALIST PARTY IN SEATTLE THAT 

953
00:35:15,246 --> 00:35:16,147
CAN DEFEAT EVERY DEMOCRAT ON 

954
00:35:16,147 --> 00:35:17,548
THIS COUNCIL AND FIGHT FOR 

955
00:35:17,548 --> 00:35:18,249
THINGS THAT HELP WORKING-CLASS

PUBLIC SAFETY, ESPECIALLY 

974
00:35:57,188 --> 00:35:58,222
RELATED TO THE USE OF CAMERAS. 

975
00:35:58,222 --> 00:36:08,766
WE HAVE SEEN AN INCREASE WITHIN 

976
00:36:13,337 --> 00:36:13,971
OUR COMMUNITIES OF A.I. FILES 

977
00:36:13,971 --> 00:36:15,039
BEING USED TO TARGET AND 

978
00:36:15,039 --> 00:36:16,007
IDENTIFY PEOPLE WHO ARE ARRESTED

979
00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:16,874
BOTH BY I.C.E. AND POLICE 

980
00:36:16,874 --> 00:36:18,409
OFFICERS. A OURS HAS ALSO CREPT 

981
00:36:18,409 --> 00:36:19,277
INTO OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT. IN 

982
00:36:19,277 --> 00:36:20,511
2024, WE HAD TO REPRIMAND OUR 

983
00:36:20,511 --> 00:36:21,445
POLICE DEPARTMENT TO NOT USE 

984
00:36:21,445 --> 00:36:22,213
A.I. FILES, GENERATIVE A.I. 

985
00:36:22,213 --> 00:36:23,481
FILES TO GO AND WRITE POLICE 

986
00:36:23,481 --> 00:36:24,615
REPORTS. NOW THAT THEY HAVE 

987
00:36:24,615 --> 00:36:28,853
ACCESS TO FACIAL IDENTIFICATION 

988
00:36:28,853 --> 00:36:30,288
PROGRAMS, THEY HAVE THE ABILITY 

989
00:36:30,288 --> 00:36:32,690
TO OFFLOAD THEIR LIMITED BRAIN 

990
00:36:32,690 --> 00:36:36,427
CAPACITY OF SOLVING CRIME TO 

991
00:36:36,427 --> 00:36:37,795
THEN GO AND TAKE THE FIRST FACE 

992
00:36:37,795 --> 00:36:42,300
THAT IS SEEN WHEN THESE SLOT 

993
00:36:42,300 --> 00:36:46,370
MACHINES OF NAMES AND FACES AND 

994
00:36:46,370 --> 00:36:47,805
CARS COME, REGARDLESS OF THE 

995
00:36:47,805 --> 00:36:53,077
ACCURACY OF INFORMATION. WE 

996
00:36:53,077 --> 00:36:54,178
DON'T HAVE TRANSPARENCY FOR HOW

997
00:36:54,178 --> 00:36:55,346
MANY CASES ARE SOLVED, HOW MANY 

998
00:36:55,346 --> 00:36:57,682
ARRESTS ARE MADE DUE TO THE USE 

999
00:36:57,682 --> 00:37:00,851

THEY ARE HELD IN JAIL FOR A

PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME AND

>> I WAS HERE WHEN THE I.C.E. 

1037
00:38:32,343 --> 00:38:39,183
DID THAT RAID. THERE WERE 

1038

COUNTLESS PEOPLE TAKEN FROM 

1039
00:38:40,051 --> 00:38:41,719
THERE. I WAS THERE WATCHING, 

1040
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:42,286
FILMING, PROTESTING AGAINST 

1041
00:38:42,286 --> 00:38:43,087
THEM. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS 

1042
00:38:43,087 --> 00:38:50,695
GOING ON IN THIS CITY. I DON'T 

1043
00:38:50,695 --> 00:39:00,838
KNOW. A.I. FUZZ IS BRINGING 

1044
00:39:00,838 --> 00:39:02,106
CAMERAS TO ALL OF THIS. IT IS 

1045
00:39:02,106 --> 00:39:03,507
NOT JUST OUR POLICE USING THEM. 

1046
00:39:03,507 --> 00:39:04,675
IT IS I.C.E. AND SOME OF OUR 

1047
00:39:04,675 --> 00:39:05,710
POLICE ARE EVEN SUPPORTING 

1048
00:39:05,710 --> 00:39:06,744
I.C.E. WITH WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

1049
00:39:06,744 --> 00:39:08,079
WE NEED TO HEAR WHAT OTHER 

1050
00:39:08,079 --> 00:39:08,946
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING HERE 

1051
00:39:08,946 --> 00:39:10,548
WITH A PARTY THAT CAN HIRE AND 

1052
00:39:10,548 --> 00:39:11,482
FIRE POLICE OFFICERS. THAT WILL 

1053
00:39:11,482 --> 00:39:13,851
KEEP US SAFE WHEN PEOPLE WHO WE 

1054
00:39:13,851 --> 00:39:18,456

1055
00:39:18,456 --> 00:39:19,557
WILSON CAME ON AND SAID SHE 

1056
00:39:19,557 --> 00:39:21,225

BEEN REPORTS ABOUT THOSE CAMERAS

1061
00:39:33,170 --> 00:39:36,674
ALL AROUND SEATTLE. THEY ARE NOT

1062
00:39:36,674 --> 00:39:39,577

1063
00:39:39,577 --> 00:39:41,112
THEY ARE HELPING A COUPLE HERE 

1064
00:39:41,112 --> 00:39:46,350
AND THERE BUT REAL POLICING IS 

1065
00:39:46,350 --> 00:39:47,351

00:39:48,753 --> 00:39:52,456

1068
00:39:52,456 --> 00:39:56,227

UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE FEEL 

1084
00:40:43,674 --> 00:40:45,242
UNSAFE IN THE CITY. I THINK 

1085
00:40:45,242 --> 00:40:46,210
EVERYBODY HAS FELT UNSAFE IN THE

1086
00:40:46,210 --> 00:40:49,947
CITY AT SOME POINT BUT I GUESS 

1087
00:40:49,947 --> 00:40:51,415
SEATTLE IS A CITY OF SMART AND 

1088
00:40:51,415 --> 00:40:52,383
COMPASSIONATE PEOPLE AND I THINK

1089
00:40:52,383 --> 00:40:53,951
WE CAN COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS 

1090
00:40:53,951 --> 00:40:59,356
THAT DON'T INVOLVE EXPANDING 

1091
00:40:59,356 --> 00:41:00,524
SURVEILLANCE. THIS IS A CITY OF 

1092
00:41:00,524 --> 00:41:01,759
SMART PEOPLE AND I THINK WE CAN 

1093
00:41:01,759 --> 00:41:02,993
COME UP WITH SOLUTIONS TO THESE 

1094
00:41:02,993 --> 00:41:03,928
PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUES THAT DON'T

1095
00:41:03,928 --> 00:41:05,696
MAKE ALL OF US LESS SAFE. IN OUR

1096
00:41:05,696 --> 00:41:06,597
SOCIETY, EVERYTHING WE DO, 

1097
00:41:06,597 --> 00:41:11,202
EVERYTHING WE SAY IS MONITORED. 

1098
00:41:11,335 --> 00:41:13,571
>> WE ARE GOING TO PAUSE YOUR 

1099
00:41:13,571 --> 00:41:18,843

1100
00:41:18,843 --> 00:41:19,877

1101
00:41:19,877 --> 00:41:23,247
GOING TO DO 1:25 -- 1:30. I WANT

1102
00:41:23,247 --> 00:41:27,184
YOU TO GET YOUR WHOLE TIME. GIVE

1103
00:41:27,184 --> 00:41:36,827
US ONE SECOND. OKAY. GOOD. EVER 

1104
00:41:36,827 --> 00:41:37,728
SINCE 9/11, EVERYTHING WE DO, 

1105
00:41:37,728 --> 00:41:38,496
EVERYTHING WE SAY IS MONITORED 

1106
00:41:38,496 --> 00:41:39,897
BY THIS SURVEILLANCE STATE AND 

1107
00:41:39,897 --> 00:41:41,866
IT CONCERNS ME THAT WE ARE NOT 

1108
00:41:41,866 --> 00:41:43,200
DOING MORE TO COMBAT THAT AT 

1109
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:51,075
EVERY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT . 

1110
00:41:51,075 --> 00:41:52,176
PLEASE REPEAL THIS PROGRAM. I 

1111
00:41:52,176 --> 00:41:53,444
ALSO DON'T REALLY TRUST SPD TO 

1112
00:41:53,444 --> 00:41:54,712
KEEP US SAFE. ON THURSDAY, 

1113
00:41:54,712 --> 00:41:58,249
MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY TESTED 

1114
00:41:58,249 --> 00:41:59,149
GOVERNOR FERGUSON'S -- ASK THEM

1115
00:41:59,149 --> 00:42:00,885
TO DO MORE TO HELP US KEEP 

1116
00:42:00,885 --> 00:42:06,457
PEOPLE SAFE IN THE COMMUNITY. AT

1117
00:42:06,457 --> 00:42:07,892
THAT PROTEST, THE OFFICER WAS 

1118
00:42:07,892 --> 00:42:08,692
RUDE AND ANTAGONISTIC TOWARD ME.

1119
00:42:08,692 --> 00:42:10,361
HE MADE FUN OF THE SIGN THAT I 

1120
00:42:10,361 --> 00:42:15,199
WAS HOLDING AND AFTER THE 

1121
00:42:15,199 --> 00:42:16,700
PROTEST, HE SAID TO ME, JESUS 

1122
00:42:16,700 --> 00:42:17,835
LOVES YOU, WHICH I HAVE NO 

1123
00:42:17,835 --> 00:42:18,969
PROBLEM WITH BUT AS A GOVERNMENT

1124
00:42:18,969 --> 00:42:19,670
OFFICIAL, YOUR PERSONAL 

1125
00:42:19,670 --> 00:42:20,504
RELIGIOUS BELIEFS ARE NOT 

1126
00:42:20,504 --> 00:42:24,074
RELEVANT TO THE JOB. IT IS NOT 

1127
00:42:24,074 --> 00:42:25,409
APPROPRIATE. I HAVE TALKED TO A 

1128
00:42:25,409 --> 00:42:27,244
LOT OF YOU. I THINK A LOT OF YOU

1129
00:42:27,244 --> 00:42:28,545
ARE NICE PEOPLE BUT AT THE END 

1130
00:42:28,545 --> 00:42:31,515
OF THE DAY WHEN YOU ARE IN THESE

1131
00:42:31,515 --> 00:42:37,187
OFFICES, OUR RELATIONSHIP IS 

1132
00:42:37,187 --> 00:42:41,158
DIFFERENT THAN THE PERSONAL 

1133
00:42:41,158 --> 00:42:42,026
ONES. IT IS A PUBLIC 

1134
00:42:42,026 --> 00:42:43,193
RELATIONSHIP AND WE HAVE TO PUT 

1135
00:42:43,193 --> 00:42:44,728
PRESSURE ON YOU. WHETHER THAT IS

1136
00:42:44,728 --> 00:42:45,429
BECAUSE WE DON'T THINK YOU'RE 

1137
00:42:45,429 --> 00:42:46,263
DOING THE RIGHT THING MORE 

1138
00:42:46,263 --> 00:42:47,598
BECAUSE WE WANT TO GIVE YOU 

1139
00:42:47,598 --> 00:42:51,435
PERMISSION TO DO THIS OR WE WANT

1140
00:42:51,435 --> 00:42:52,937
IT ON THE RECORD THAT PEOPLE IN 

1141
00:42:52,937 --> 00:42:54,004
OUR COMMUNITY WANT THIS SO YOU 

1142
00:42:54,004 --> 00:42:56,206
CAN GO BACK AND SAY WE ARE DOING

1143
00:42:56,206 --> 00:42:57,074
THIS BECAUSE PEOPLE WANT US TO 

1144
00:42:57,074 --> 00:42:58,609
DO THIS. IT IS NOT PERSONAL. I 

1145
00:42:58,609 --> 00:42:59,843
ENCOURAGE YOU NOT TO TAKE IT 

1146
00:42:59,843 --> 00:43:00,477
PERSONALLY. PLEASE MAKE IT 

1147
00:43:00,477 --> 00:43:01,245
PERMANENT. I UNDERSTAND THE 

1148
00:43:01,245 --> 00:43:02,546
SHORTER MAJOR OF EMERGENCY 

1149
00:43:02,546 --> 00:43:03,714
LEGISLATION ALLOWS IT TO BE 

1150
00:43:03,714 --> 00:43:04,682
IMPLEMENTED RIGHT AWAY BUT WE 

1151
00:43:04,682 --> 00:43:12,423
NEED TO EXTEND THIS. 

1152
00:43:12,423 --> 00:43:13,190
>> THANK YOU, NATHAN. NEXT WE 

1153
00:43:13,190 --> 00:43:15,392

ARE ASKING FOR BECAUSE WE DON'T

FEEL PROTECT. ALSO, THE MAYOR IS

1169
00:43:56,166 --> 00:43:57,234
DISMISSIVE OF OUR CONCERNS 

1170
00:43:57,234 --> 00:43:57,868
REGARDING THESE CAMERAS BECAUSE 

1171
00:43:57,868 --> 00:43:59,303

PUBLIC. IT IS NOT YOUR LIVING 

1175
00:44:12,549 --> 00:44:13,550
ROOM. IF YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING

1176
00:44:13,550 --> 00:44:14,685
YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE 

1177
00:44:14,685 --> 00:44:15,953
DOING, BE MINDFUL OF THAT. ALSO,

00:44:15,953 --> 00:44:19,957

00:44:45,983 --> 00:44:46,784
SILLY CAMPAIGN SIGNS THAT ARE

WHY IS SHE ATTACKING THE

DEMOCRATS? IT IS THE REPUBLICANS

1299
00:48:34,511 --> 00:48:36,380
COUNCILMEMBERS. I SERVE AS THE 

1300
00:48:36,380 --> 00:48:37,314

MEANINGFUL PROGRESS AS A CITY 

1312

BUT WE KNOW THAT ACCESS ALONE IS

1313
00:48:59,970 --> 00:49:01,805
NOT ENOUGH. MANY RESIDENTS STILL

1314
00:49:01,805 --> 00:49:07,311
FACE BARRIERS FOR LOCAL 

1315
00:49:07,311 --> 00:49:09,746

00:49:09,746 --> 00:49:10,914

WITH ORGANIZATIONS WHO ARE ON 

1321
00:49:18,555 --> 00:49:19,790
THE GROUND. THERE ARE MEMBERS 

1322
00:49:19,790 --> 00:49:20,557

EDUCATION. WHAT WE CONSISTENTLY 

1330
00:49:35,138 --> 00:49:37,474

HIGH AND CASES ARE STILL 

1332
00:49:38,976 --> 00:49:45,349
GROWING. THE COMCAST FRANCHISE 

1333
00:49:45,349 --> 00:49:46,249
PRESENTS AN IMPORTANT 

1334
00:49:46,249 --> 00:49:46,783
OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD ON 

1335
00:49:46,783 --> 00:49:47,617

THOSE MOST IMPACTED BY THE 

1342
00:50:07,137 --> 00:50:08,138
DIGITAL DIVIDE. DIGITAL ACCESS 

1343
00:50:08,138 --> 00:50:09,473
IS NOT A LUXURY. IT IS AN 

1344
00:50:09,473 --> 00:50:10,073
ESSENTIAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND 

1345
00:50:10,073 --> 00:50:10,841

1356
00:50:28,859 --> 00:50:34,998
A STATEMENT FROM THE TRANSIT

WRITERS UNION. AS SEATTLEITES 

1358
00:50:39,469 --> 00:50:41,204
AND HUMAN BEINGS, WE HAVE BEEN 

1359
00:50:41,204 --> 00:50:41,938
HORRIFIED BY THE INVASION OF 

1360
00:50:41,938 --> 00:50:42,839
IRAN BY THE UNITED STATES AND 

1361
00:50:42,839 --> 00:50:43,774
ISRAEL. THIS ATROCITY DOES 

1362
00:50:43,774 --> 00:50:44,841
NOTHING BUT INCREASE THE HUMAN 

1363
00:50:44,841 --> 00:50:45,876
SUFFERING IN THE WORLD TO AN 

1364
00:50:45,876 --> 00:50:51,581
UNIMAGINABLE DEGREE. WE ARE 

1365
00:50:51,581 --> 00:50:55,052
HORRIFIED BY ISRAEL'S THREATS 

1366
00:50:55,052 --> 00:50:56,186
TO INVADE LEBANON, AN INVASION 

1367
00:50:56,186 --> 00:50:57,554
THAT WOULD IN PART BE FUNDED BY 

1368
00:50:57,554 --> 00:50:58,655
THE UNITED STATES. WE CALL IN 

1369
00:50:58,655 --> 00:50:59,923

PUBLICLY, STRONGLY AND

UNCONDITIONALLY OPPOSE THE 

1372
00:51:00,991 --> 00:51:01,958
UNITED STATES' ACTIONS IN IRAN 

1373
00:51:01,958 --> 00:51:05,462
AND LIKELY ACTION IN LEBANON. 

1374
00:51:05,462 --> 00:51:06,863
AND, ANY OTHER IN THE REGION. WE

1375
00:51:06,863 --> 00:51:07,798
BELIEVE IT IS A RESPONSIBILITY 

1376
00:51:07,798 --> 00:51:09,132

LIKE TO LEAD ON THIS ISSUE. 

1380
00:51:12,135 --> 00:51:17,808
LEADING DOES NOT MEAN STATEMENTS

1381
00:51:17,808 --> 00:51:20,977
BUT ALSO BOLD ACTION. LEADING 

1382
00:51:20,977 --> 00:51:21,978
MEANS RECOGNIZING, RESPONDING TO

1383
00:51:21,978 --> 00:51:23,079
THE FACT THAT THIS WAR HAS BEEN 

1384
00:51:23,079 --> 00:51:24,414

COST OF LIVING, OUR ELECTED 

1386
00:51:25,081 --> 00:51:30,987

>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. GOOD 

1541
00:57:16,499 --> 00:57:17,967
AFTERNOON, COUNCIL. AS YOU KNOW,

1542
00:57:17,967 --> 00:57:20,003
I AM AGAINST THE SURVEILLANCE 

1543
00:57:20,003 --> 00:57:20,870
TECHNOLOGY. I WILL SAY THAT I 

1544
00:57:20,870 --> 00:57:21,838
DON'T CONSIDER MYSELF 

1545
00:57:21,838 --> 00:57:32,382
DOGMATICALLY AGAINST IT . I AM 

1546
00:57:36,452 --> 00:57:36,953
INTERESTED IN WEIGHING THE 

1547
00:57:36,953 --> 00:57:38,354
ARGUMENTS FOR BOTH SIDES. THERE 

1548
00:57:38,354 --> 00:57:39,756
HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF TIMES. MY 

1549
00:57:39,756 --> 00:57:40,723
CAR HAS GOTTEN BROKEN INTO 

1550
00:57:40,723 --> 00:57:41,758
BEFORE. THE FIRST THING I DID 

1551
00:57:41,758 --> 00:57:43,059
WAS GO TO THE BUSINESSES WAS 

1552
00:57:43,059 --> 00:57:44,694
RIGHT WHERE I PARKED AND SAY, DO

1553
00:57:44,694 --> 00:57:45,528
YOU HAVE CAMERAS? DO YOU HAVE 

1554
00:57:45,528 --> 00:57:47,096
CAMERA FOOTAGE SO I CAN SEE WHO 

1555
00:57:47,096 --> 00:57:48,498
DID THIS? DOES THAT MAKE ME A 

1556
00:57:48,498 --> 00:57:49,399
HYPOCRITE? I DON'T WANT PEOPLE 

1557
00:57:49,399 --> 00:57:50,867
TO NECESSARILY HAVE THE SAME 

1558
00:57:50,867 --> 00:57:52,535
OPTION. I WAS AT A RALLY FOR THE

1559
00:57:52,535 --> 00:57:53,503
TWO STUDENTS WHO WERE KILLED 

1560
00:57:53,503 --> 00:57:54,671
DOWN NEAR REGNIER BEACH HIGH 

1561
00:57:54,671 --> 00:57:55,405
SCHOOL. THERE WERE STUDENTS 

1562
00:57:55,405 --> 00:57:56,940
THERE AND ADULTS THAT ARE SAYING

1563
00:57:56,940 --> 00:57:58,074
WE WANT MORE SURVEILLANCE. WE 

1564
00:57:58,074 --> 00:57:59,142
WANT TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO 

1565
00:57:59,142 --> 00:58:01,010
CATCH THE PEOPLE WHO DID THIS. 

1566
00:58:01,010 --> 00:58:06,015
PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT 

1567
00:58:06,015 --> 00:58:07,217
SURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY -- IT 

1568
00:58:07,217 --> 00:58:08,117
HAS BENEFITS BUT THOSE BENEFITS 

1569
00:58:08,117 --> 00:58:09,152
HAVE TO BE WEIGHED AGAINST THE 

1570
00:58:09,152 --> 00:58:10,620
DOWNSIDE AND EMPHASIS NOW, THERE

1571
00:58:10,620 --> 00:58:11,888
IS NOTHING STOPPING THE TRUMP 

1572
00:58:11,888 --> 00:58:17,427
ADMINISTRATION AND I.C.E. FROM 

1573
00:58:17,427 --> 00:58:19,963
SUBPOENAING THE SURVEILLANCE 

1574
00:58:19,963 --> 00:58:20,630
FOOTAGE. WE UNDERSTAND ONLY ONE 

1575
00:58:20,630 --> 00:58:21,264
EMPLOYEE IN THE REAL-TIME CENTER

1576
00:58:21,264 --> 00:58:26,936
HAS ACCESS TO THE FOOTAGE. THAT 

1577
00:58:26,936 --> 00:58:31,307
PREVENTS MOST INTERNAL ABUSES 

1578
00:58:31,307 --> 00:58:32,775
WHICH IS A REAL PROBLEM BUT THAT

1579
00:58:32,775 --> 00:58:34,010
IS STILL ONE PERSON AT THE 

1580
00:58:34,010 --> 00:58:34,944
GOVERNMENT CAN SUBPOENA. WE 

1581
00:58:34,944 --> 00:58:35,879
UNDERSTAND IT WILL BE DELETED 

1582
00:58:35,879 --> 00:58:36,946
AFTER FIVE DAYS BUT THAT IS 

1583
00:58:36,946 --> 00:58:38,781
STILL A WINDOW OF TIME FOR THEM 

1584
00:58:38,781 --> 00:58:39,582
TO SUBPOENA THE FOOTAGE. THERE 

1585
00:58:39,582 --> 00:58:41,184
IS AN OFFRAMP TO SHUT IT DOWN IF

1586
00:58:41,184 --> 00:58:42,051
YOU RECEIVE REQUESTS FROM I.C.E.

1587
00:58:42,051 --> 00:58:43,286
BUT THAT STILL MEANS THEY WILL 

1588
00:58:43,286 --> 00:58:44,888
BE ABLE TO GET IN TO GET THE 

1589
00:58:44,888 --> 00:58:45,822
FOOTAGE AND AS COUNCILMEMBER 

1590
00:58:45,822 --> 00:58:46,890
KETTLE SAID AT THE TIME, WE 

1591
00:58:46,890 --> 00:58:48,157
DON'T USE FACIAL RECOGNITION 

1592
00:58:48,157 --> 00:58:49,025
TECH ON THE FOOTAGE. IMMEDIATELY

1593
00:58:49,025 --> 00:58:56,099
AFTER HE SAID THAT, 

1594
00:58:56,099 --> 00:58:57,333
COUNCILMEMBER RINCK POINTED OUT 

1595
00:58:57,333 --> 00:58:58,134
THAT ONCE THE GOVERNMENT 

1596
00:58:58,134 --> 00:59:00,303
RECEIVES THE FOOTAGE, THEY CAN 

1597
00:59:00,303 --> 00:59:00,803
APPLY THEIR OWN FACIAL 

1598
00:59:00,803 --> 00:59:01,471
RECOGNITION TECH TO IT AND THERE

1599
00:59:01,471 --> 00:59:02,605
IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT IT. 

1600
00:59:02,605 --> 00:59:04,007
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO THE 

1601
00:59:04,007 --> 00:59:04,707
PEOPLE FROM THE COMMUNITY WHO 

1602
00:59:04,707 --> 00:59:05,875
SHOWED UP HERE TODAY TO SUPPORT 

1603
00:59:05,875 --> 00:59:07,176
IT AND ALSO THAT GUY ON THE 

1604
00:59:07,176 --> 00:59:08,745
PHONE CALL -- HE IS NOT THE 

1605
00:59:08,745 --> 00:59:09,679
FIRST PERSON TO SAY OUR 

1606
00:59:09,679 --> 00:59:11,748
COMMUNITY WANTS THIS BUT THAT 

1607
00:59:11,748 --> 00:59:12,916
HAS TO BE WEIGHTED AGAINST THE 

1608
00:59:12,916 --> 00:59:16,486
DOWNSIDE. I YIELD MY TIME. 

1609
00:59:16,486 --> 00:59:21,858
>> THANK YOU. NEXT, ANITA. 

1610
00:59:21,858 --> 00:59:27,830

1611

1612
00:59:44,547 --> 00:59:46,583

SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS THAT YOU 

1615

1616

CITIZENS OF SEATTLE. I SEE YOU 

1617

THAT WITH ALL OF THE OTHER STUFF

1624
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:11,841
THEY ARE NOT FOCUSING ON IN 

1625
01:00:11,841 --> 01:00:12,608
SOCIETIES LIKE THE CAMERAS THAT 

1626
01:00:12,608 --> 01:00:19,315

1627
01:00:19,315 --> 01:00:19,949

LIKE THAT? NO. NOBODY LIKES 

1638
01:00:43,406 --> 01:00:45,441

1639
01:00:45,441 --> 01:00:46,876
POWERED SURVEILLANCE IN SEATTLE.

1640

NOBODY. NOBODY ASKED FOR IT. 

1641
01:00:47,477 --> 01:00:56,152
NOBODY WANTS IT, EVER . THINK 

1642
01:00:56,152 --> 01:00:57,553
ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING, THE 

1643
01:00:57,553 --> 01:00:58,621
MONEY YOU ARE TAKING FROM THESE 

1644
01:00:58,621 --> 01:01:06,162
COMPANIES. STOP IT. ONE DAY, YOU

1645
01:01:06,162 --> 01:01:07,330
WILL BE TRACKED WITH THESE 

1646
01:01:07,330 --> 01:01:09,532
CAMERAS, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR 

1647
01:01:09,532 --> 01:01:10,466
CHILDREN. EVERYTHING YOU DO IN 

1648
01:01:10,466 --> 01:01:12,468
YOUR DAILY LIFE WILL BE NOTICED 

1649
01:01:12,468 --> 01:01:14,337
AND THAT IS WHEN YOU LOSE ALL OF

1650
01:01:14,337 --> 01:01:19,642
YOUR FREEDOM. YOU WERE SUPPOSED 

1651
01:01:19,642 --> 01:01:20,743
TO BE UNDERSTANDING AMERICAN 

1652
01:01:20,743 --> 01:01:21,644
VALUES OF FREEDOM. THIS IS NOT 

1653
01:01:21,644 --> 01:01:23,646
THE WAY TO DO THAT. THIS IS AN 

1654
01:01:23,646 --> 01:01:25,915
OBSTRUCTION OF SOCIETY AND 

1655
01:01:25,915 --> 01:01:33,790
EVERYTHING THAT YOU CHOOSE TO BE

1656
01:01:33,790 --> 01:01:41,164
DOING -- YOU, SPECIFICALLY. 

1657
01:01:41,164 --> 01:01:42,565
>> THANK YOU, ANITA. NEXT, WE 

1658
01:01:42,565 --> 01:01:48,337
HAVE KIRK ROBBINS ONLINE.*6 . 

1659
01:01:48,337 --> 01:01:50,206
IF WE CAN GET YOU, I'M SORRY, 

1660
01:01:50,206 --> 01:01:51,574
THERE IS TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES.

1661
01:01:51,574 --> 01:01:52,341
KIRK, THERE YOU GO. 

1662
01:01:52,341 --> 01:01:55,878
>> OKAY. THANK YOU. I AM CALLING

1663
01:01:55,878 --> 01:02:01,551
ABOUT TRANSIT CONCURRENCY AS 

1664
01:02:01,551 --> 01:02:02,351
CONCURRENCY IS A REQUIREMENT OF 

1665
01:02:02,351 --> 01:02:03,653
THE MANAGEMENT ACT AND, YES, WE 

1666
01:02:03,653 --> 01:02:06,756
HAVE JUST LEARNED THAT THERE 

1667
01:02:06,756 --> 01:02:07,890
WILL BE NO LIGHT RAIL IN 

1668
01:02:07,890 --> 01:02:08,624
BALLARD. APPARENTLY THE WHOLE 

1669
01:02:08,624 --> 01:02:09,592
CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT WILL HAVE 

1670
01:02:09,592 --> 01:02:11,861
NO LIGHT RAIL. THE TRANSIT 

1671
01:02:11,861 --> 01:02:17,834
RIDERS UNION IS MORE INTERESTED 

1672
01:02:17,834 --> 01:02:19,335
IN WARS AND CAMERAS THAN IT IS 

1673
01:02:19,335 --> 01:02:21,104
IN TRANSIT WHICH IS A BAD SIGN 

1674
01:02:21,104 --> 01:02:22,238
FOR THE FUTURE OF THE 

1675
01:02:22,238 --> 01:02:23,005
NEIGHBORHOOD. I DON'T KNOW HOW 

1676
01:02:23,005 --> 01:02:28,845
MANY -- HOW MUCH TRANSIT USE WAS

1677
01:02:28,845 --> 01:02:32,115
FACTORED IN TO THE COMPREHENSIVE

1678
01:02:32,115 --> 01:02:35,418
PLAN. WE HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT 

1679
01:02:35,418 --> 01:02:37,053
THAT MAYBE INTO THE LATE 30s OR 

1680
01:02:37,053 --> 01:02:40,156
40s BEFORE WE GET IT BUT ARE YOU

1681
01:02:40,156 --> 01:02:46,562
GOING TO HAVE TO GO BACK AND 

1682
01:02:46,562 --> 01:02:48,431
CHECK THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, 

1683
01:02:48,431 --> 01:02:49,565
ESPECIALLY FOR THE BALLARD AREA 

1684
01:02:49,565 --> 01:02:51,267
AND THE BAY AREA AS TO HOW MUCH 

1685
01:02:51,267 --> 01:02:52,301
TRANSIT YOU PLANNED ON AND HOW 

1686
01:02:52,301 --> 01:02:53,936
MUCH YOU ARE GOING TO GET AND 

1687
01:02:53,936 --> 01:02:54,637
DOES NOT INVALIDATE THE WHOLE 

1688
01:02:54,637 --> 01:02:55,771
THING? A SHOUT OUT TO 

1689
01:02:55,771 --> 01:02:56,606
CONGRESSMAN SMITH FOR NOT 

1690
01:02:56,606 --> 01:02:57,840
SENDING HIS CAMPAIGN TROLLS TO 

1691
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:06,482
DISRUPT AND WASTE YOUR TIME. I 

1692
01:03:06,482 --> 01:03:07,750
THINK THE POLICY ON CAMERAS 

1693
01:03:07,750 --> 01:03:08,851
OUGHT TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO 

1694
01:03:08,851 --> 01:03:10,319
WITH WHAT THE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE 

1695
01:03:10,319 --> 01:03:10,953
SAYING RATHER THAN A CITYWIDE 

1696
01:03:10,953 --> 01:03:11,554
IDEOLOGICAL OVERREACTION TO 

1697
01:03:11,554 --> 01:03:12,822
THINGS BUT I THINK IT IS MORE 

1698
01:03:12,822 --> 01:03:14,991
IMPORTANT THAT YOU STAND 

1699
01:03:14,991 --> 01:03:16,225
TOGETHER, TRYING TO GET FOR US 

1700
01:03:16,225 --> 01:03:20,530
WHAT WE AGREED TO PAY FOR AND 

1701
01:03:20,530 --> 01:03:21,697
WHAT WE ARE CERTAINLY BEING 

1702
01:03:21,697 --> 01:03:23,366
CHARGED FOR, WHICH IS TRANSIT IN

1703
01:03:23,366 --> 01:03:25,768
OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND WHEN THEY 

1704
01:03:25,768 --> 01:03:27,403
GET THEM TO ASK THE QUESTIONS 

1705
01:03:27,403 --> 01:03:29,038
THAT COUNCILMEMBER LIN ONE HAS 

1706
01:03:29,038 --> 01:03:34,510
REQUESTED THAT THEY ASK ABOUT 

1707
01:03:34,510 --> 01:03:35,578
RIDERSHIP, A TRANSIT SYSTEM THAT

1708
01:03:35,578 --> 01:03:40,616
IGNORES RIDERSHIP IS ONE THAT IS

1709
01:03:40,616 --> 01:03:41,651
-- I'M SORRY THAT ALL OF THIS 

1710
01:03:41,651 --> 01:03:43,186
IS COMING TO YOU ON SUCH SHORT 

1711
01:03:43,186 --> 01:03:43,853
NOTICE. OBVIOUSLY THE UNION 

1712
01:03:43,853 --> 01:03:51,027
OUGHT TO CONSIDER THIS ISSUE. 

1713
01:03:51,027 --> 01:03:51,928
ANYWAY, THANK YOU. 

1714
01:03:51,928 --> 01:03:52,695

UNSAFE FOR MY EMPLOYEES TO SET 

1723
01:04:14,550 --> 01:04:15,585

SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS AND IT 

1726
01:04:21,958 --> 01:04:23,125
TURNS OUT IT IS THE MAJORITY OF 

1727
01:04:23,125 --> 01:04:24,093
THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY WHO WAS 

1728
01:04:24,093 --> 01:04:24,860
ADVOCATING FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S 

1729
01:04:24,860 --> 01:04:26,429
KIDS TO HAVE SEX CHANGES AND I 

1730
01:04:26,429 --> 01:04:29,432

NEW TORRENTS, COMING ON BOARD, 

2115
01:18:52,461 --> 01:18:53,295
BREAKING ATTENDANCE RECORDS WITH

01:18:53,295 --> 01:18:54,396
THE FIRST HOME GAME. IT IS 

2117
01:18:54,396 --> 01:18:55,630
UNBELIEVABLE. THEN YOU THROW ON 

2118
01:18:55,630 --> 01:18:57,399
TOP OUR RUN A LCS WITH THE

WITH THE SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS, 

2122
01:19:00,435 --> 01:19:01,803

2123
01:19:01,803 --> 01:19:02,671

2131
01:19:22,224 --> 01:19:23,125

LOCATION HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE. 

2142
01:19:34,803 --> 01:19:35,770
BRINGING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER 

2143
01:19:35,770 --> 01:19:38,073
HAS BEEN UNBELIEVABLE AND TO DO 

2144
01:19:38,073 --> 01:19:40,208
THIS REALLY SHOWS THAT 

2145
