2016 HAS BEEN A DEVASTATING YEAR FOR
MANY, INCLUDING SEVERAL POLICE OFFICERS AND THEIR FAMILIES AFTER
COPS WERE SHOT AND KILLED IN VARIOUS ATTACKS, SOME OF WHICH WERE AMBUSH
STYLE.
WHAT WE HEAR AND SEE IN THE MEDIA A LOT IS THAT THERE IS A WAR
ON POLICE OFFICIALS.
POLICE BEING TARGETS OF THESE KILLINGS IS WORSE
THAN BEFORE.
BUT WHAT DO THE NUMBERS INDICATE?
WHILE THESE DEATHS ARE
TRAGIC, IF YOU LOOK AT THE TRENDS AND NUMBERS, YOU SEE THAT 2016 IS
NOT ACTUALLY WORSE THAN PREVIOUS YEARS.
LET'S GET
TO THAT.
ALTOGETHER
SO FAR THE UNOFFICIAL NUMBER IS 64 POLICE OFFICERS WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED
IN THE LINE OF DUTY.
THAT IS A LOT OF COPS.
AS TRAGIC AS IT IS, YOU CAN
LOOK AT THE LONG-TERM TRENDS AND SEE THAT 2016 IS NOT THE WORST YEAR.
1973 WAS THE PEAK YEAR WHERE 134 OFFICERS WERE KILLED.
THE NUMBER WE
ARE CURRENTLY AT RIGHT NOW IS SIMILAR TO THE NUMBER BACK IN 2011.
2011 WAS THE LAST TIME WE HAD A NUMBER AS HIGH.
I AM BRINGING THIS
UP BECAUSE I THINK THERE IS A LOT OF MISINFORMATION AND FEAR MONGERING
OUT THERE.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT INFORMATION
AND DATA.
IT IS STILL DISASTROUS, AND I THINK CERTAIN PROTECTIONS NEED
TO BE TAKEN FOR COPS AND REFORMS NEED TO BE MADE TO PREVENT
POLICE
BRUTALITY AS WELL.
>> ALSO, BACK IN THE 70S, THE U.S. POPULATION WAS A LOT LOWER
THAN IT
IS NOW.
>>CONTEXT IS SUPER IMPORTANT.
TERRORISM IN EUROPE NOW FEELS
HORRIBLE.
IN THE 1970S TERRORISM IN EUROPE WAS FAR HIGHER BUT IT WAS
LESS HYPED UP.
BUT IT SEEMED LIKE IT IS A FAMILY FIGHT.
PEOPLE WERE
DYING, PEOPLE WERE BLOWING UP, IT WAS A TERRIBLE TIME.
THAT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY OF THESE ATTACKS TODAY ANY BETTER.
IT'S JUST AS HORRIFIC.
WE ARE
JUST TRYING TO GIVE YOU CONTEXT.
WHEN SOMEONE DOES A MISINFORMATION
CAMPAIGN AND THEY TRY TO SCARE YOU
INTO GOING THE WRONG DIRECTION, JUST
HAVE THE CONTEXT AND MAKE RATIONAL DECISIONS.
THE QUESTION IS HOW DO
YOU ACT TO PREVENT THESE DEATHS?
>> I CAN'T DECIDE IF THE MEDIA HAS A SELECTIVE OR SHORT-TERM MEMORY WHEN
THEY ARE PERPETUATING THIS NARRATIVE.
THE HIGHEST POINT WAS IN
1973.
JOHN, YOU MADE A REALLY GOOD POINT ABOUT THE DISPARITY IN THE
POPULATION.
WHAT WAS GOING ON IN 1973?
WE HAD THE BLACK LIBERATION
ARMY, THE BLACK PANTHERS, THEY HAD PEOPLE ON THEIR SIDE SAYING
KILL THE
POLICE.
TO EQUATE THAT WITH THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT IS
ABSOLUTELY NOT OKAY, BUT WE SEE IT MORE AND MORE.
THEY ARE NOT THE SAME
AT ALL.
THEY ARE NOT ADVOCATING FOR THE SAME THINGS.
WE ARE SEEING
PEACEFUL MOVEMENTS, ALL THESE PROTESTS GOING ONLINE AND AFFECT
CHANGE IN A PEACEFUL WAY THROUGH TWITTER.
YOU CAN HAVE THE
SPOKESPEOPLE FOR THIS MOVEMENT SPEAKING OUT IN A WAY.
WHEN
CLIFFORD, THE 10-YEAR-OLD IN YORK CITY THAT WAS KILLED, WE DIDN'T
HAVE
THESE – I DON'T KNOW WHY WE ARE SEEING MORE IN THE MEDIA THAT IT IS
THE WORST IT HAS EVER BEEN.
WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A WAR ON COPS
ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE.
IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE TO SAY THAT.
>> THE FOX VIEWERS WERE.
THAT IS WHY THEY USED THE TERMINOLOGY BACK
THEN.
A LOT OF THEIR VIEWERS WHO WERE 70 OR 80 NOW, WERE 30 OR 40 BACK THEN.
THEY TRY TO PRETEND THAT EVERYTHING IS THE SAME.
>>I THINK THAT IS TRUE WITH FOX, BUT IN REGARDS TO OTHER MEDIA THAT
ATTEMPT TO BE FAIR AND BALANCED AND CLAIM THEY HAVE NO BIAS.
WHAT THEY
REALLY DO IS JUST REGURGITATE PRESS RELEASES THAT THEY ARE GIVEN.
YOU
HAVE POLICE UNIONS AND POLICE ORGANIZATIONS GIVING THEM THESE PR
MATERIALS AND THEY LITERALLY REGURGITATE IT.
FOR SOME OF THEM IT
IS NOT EVEN ABOUT SELECTIVE MEMORY, IT IS JUST A LACK OF
FACT CHECKING
AND DOING THEIR JOB.
>> THERE IS ONE MORE POINT THAT GIVES YOU A SENSE OF THE EMPHASIS.
I
WANT YOU TO KNOW ALL THE FACTS.
IN DALLAS AND LOUISIANA COPS WERE SHOT
TRAGICALLY, AND THEY WERE PROTECTING BLACK LIVES MATTER PROTESTERS.
THEY
WERE SHOT BY TWO BLACK GUYS THAT WERE MAD AT COPS.
THAT IS REAL.
THEY
WERE NOT PART OF ANY BLACK GROUPS INCLUDING BLACK LIVES MATTER.
IN
FACT THEY WERE SHOOTING INTO A PROTEST THAT HAD BLACK LIVES MATTER
PROTESTERS.
SO HE HAD ACTUALLY BEEN KICKED OUT OF A BLACK LIVES MATTER
GROUP.
HE WAS BITTER ABOUT THAT.
ON THE OTHER HAND
THE OTHER GUY
MURDERED THESE TWO COPS FOR POLITICAL AMBITIONS.
I AM NOT SAYING
YOU NEED TO EMPHASIZE THE RIGHT-WINGER MORE, I AM JUST SAYING
ISN'T IT INTERESTING THAT ALMOST NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT HIM?
YOU
HEAR ONE OR TWO STORIES ABOUT THOSE GUYS, AND YOU NEVER HEAR ABOUT IT
AGAIN.
WE CARE ABOUT THE COPS BEING SHOT IN DALLAS AND MISSOURI.
BUT
WHEN YOU WATCH FOX NEWS AND REGURGITATED BY THE CNN'S OF THE
WORLD, ALL THEY LOOK AT IS THE DALLAS AND LOUISIANA.
AND THEY DON'T
COVER COPS BEING SHOT ELSEWHERE.
JUST THINK ABOUT WHY?
IF THEY CARED
ABOUT COPS THEY WOULD COVER THEM ALL EQUALLY.
THERE WAS SOME REAL RADICAL
GROUPS BACK IN 1973, SO THAT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM TODAY.
THE MOST OF
THE CUPS KILLED WERE KILLED DURING CRIME, NOT RADICAL GROUPS.
CRIME WAS
MUCH HIGHER 1973 THAN IT WAS TODAY.
EVEN THOUGH WE HAD A LOWER
POPULATION, WE HAD A HIGHER CRIME RATE.
THAT IS WHY MORE COPS DIED
BACK THEN.
THANK GOD CRIME IS LOWER NOW AND HENCE LESS
COPS DIE.

Pro-Gun Columnist Shot Dead In Home - Duration: 8:38.
A TRAGIC STORY OCCURRED IN OREGON RECENTLY WHERE A PRO-GUN ADVOCATE BY
THE NAME OF MICHAEL HARMON WAS SHOT AND KILLED ACCIDENTALLY.
HARMON'S
WIFE DECLINED TO TALK ABOUT THE DETAILS OF THE SHOOTING.
THE
SHOOTING DID INVOLVE A 16-YEAR-OLD WHO WAS VISITING HIS HOME WITH HIS
FATHER.
APPARENTLY HARMON HAD HANDED HIM THE GUN TO I GUESS TOUCH IT OR
SEE HOW IT IS, AND HE ACCIDENTALLY FIRED A ROUND AND SHOT HARMON AND
DIED.
HE WAS KNOWN AS A CONSERVATIVE THINKER AND STAUNCH DEFENDER OF GUN
RIGHTS.
SO AGAIN VERY STAUNCH GUN ADVOCATE AND OBVIOUSLY THE STORY IS
MAKING HEADLINES BECAUSE OF THE IRONY OF HOW HE DIED.
NONETHELESS IT
IS TRAGIC AND SHOWS THAT THESE ARE LETHAL WEAPONS AND REGULATION IS
NEEDED.
WE DON'T WANT LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS TO NOT HAVE
ACCESS TO THEM,
BUT YOU SHOULD NOT GIVE A 16-YEAR-OLD A GUN ESPECIALLY IF
IT
IS LOADED.
>> EVERY GUN RIGHTS ADVOCATE WILL SAY I KNOW HOW TO HANDLE IT, I AM A
RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNER.
AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU SEE STORIES LIKE
THIS.
I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND, IT IS NOT THAT WE ARE AGAINST MICHAEL
HERMAN, WE ARE TRYING TO PROTECT MICHAEL HARMON.
HE WAS
A VIETNAM
VET, HE TAUGHT ENGLISH IN HIGH SCHOOL, HE TAUGHT AMERICAN HISTORY.
HE IS A 71-YEAR-OLD GUY, WE WANT HIM TO BE ALIVE AND ENJOY HIS KIDS AND
GRANDKIDS.
INSTEAD HE IS DEAD TODAY BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET IT THROUGH
YOUR HEAD THAT A GUN IS A DEADLY
INSTRUMENT.
IF YOU HANDLE GUNS
ENOUGH TIMES, AND ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE ACCESS TO THEM, THEY ARE GOING TO GO
OFF.
WHETHER YOU BELIEVE THIS OR NOT WE ARE TRYING TO LOOK OUT FOR YOU.
I
WISH THIS GUY WAS ALIVE TODAY.
>> THIS IS SOMETHING I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE VIDEOS ABOUT.
THAT IS WHAT
THE PRINCIPLE BEHIND GUN FREE ZONES IS ABOUT.
IF GUNS ARE IN AN AREA,
EVERYONE IN THAT AREA HAS A CHANCE OF BEING SHOT.
EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU
ARE MASTER RAMBO, MAY BE A KID ISN'T FOR SOMEONE WHO SLEEPS OVER AT YOUR
HOUSE ISN'T.
>>MAYBE YOU THOUGHT THERE WASN'T BULLETS IN THE GUN THAT DAY, BUT
THERE WAS.
>> IT ONLY TAKES ONE MISTAKE TO POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE, AND THAT
PERSON COULD BE USED.
>> I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL DISAGREE WITH THIS, BUT THINK ABOUT
THE LOGIC.
RIGHT NOW IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 21, AN ADULT
HANDING YOU A GLASS OF BEER IS A BIG DEAL, YOU ARE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO
BE IN AN ESTABLISHMENT WHERE ALCOHOL IS BEING SERVED TO
ADULTS.
>>THAT IS CORRUPTING A MINOR AND ILLEGAL.
>>RIGHT.
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO A GUN,
THAT IS NOT TAKEN AS SERIOUSLY.
>> ALSO ON PORN.
I DON'T WANT ANYONE HANDING 16-YEAR-OLDS PORN MAGS.
BUT
IF YOU HAD ONE TO A KID THAT IS A SERIOUS OFFENSE.
WHAT I RATHER HAVE
MY 16-YEAR-OLD HANDLING ONE OF THOSE OR A GUN?
NOT REMOTELY CLOSE.
WE ARE
SO FLIPPANT ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE IS ALL THIS PROPAGANDA THAT SAYS
GUNS ARE GREAT.
>> THE IRONY IS THAT HE WAS RUNNING SO MUCH OF THIS PROPAGANDA.
I SPENT
MY SUMMERS IN MAINE.
I DISAGREED
WITH SO MUCH OF WHAT HE WAS SAYING
BUT HE MADE REALLY COMPELLING ARGUMENTS THAT MAKES ME SO SAD.
HE
WAS SPEAKING OUT AGAINST FAKE NEWS FROM BOTH SIDES.
HE HAD A VOICE AND
A MESSAGE.
A MONTH AGO HE WAS TALKING ABOUT SEEING HIS GRANDKIDS
GROW UP.
LATER ON HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE SECOND AMENDMENT AND
PROTECTING IT.
THE IRONY OF IT ALL IS SO HEARTBREAKING.
THIS GUY WAS SO
INTELLIGENT.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE THIS DISCOURSE ON BOTH SIDES.
IT WAS AN EDUCATED READ.
IT IS INCREDIBLY HEARTBREAKING TO LOSE A
VOICE LIKE THIS FOR SUCH A STUPID REASON.
>> I THINK, UNFORTUNATELY, FOR SOME REASON YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE A
MEASURED RATIONAL POSITION.
YOU HAVE TO BE ON ONE EXTREME SIDE OF THE
ARGUMENT.
OFTENTIMES PEOPLE ARE LIKE NO GUN REGULATION WHATSOEVER, THEN
YOU HAVE SOME PEOPLE SAYING THEY WANT TO BAN ALL GUNS.
THERE ARE
REASONABLE ARGUMENTS THAT ARE SOMEHOW IN THE MIDDLE.
YOU DON'T DO
AWAY WITH OUR RIGHTS, OR A LAW-ABIDING CITIZEN HAVING ACCESS TO
GUNS, BUT YOU DO SOMETHING TO PREVENT UNINTENTIONAL DEBTS.
IN THIS
CASE IT COULD'VE BEEN PREVENTED.
IT IS A TRAGEDY.
WE DON'T BRING UP THE
STORIES TO POINT FINGERS, WE BRING THEM UP TO SHOW THAT THESE
ARE
PEOPLE WE DON'T WANT GONE BECAUSE OF OUR LAX GUN
REGULATION.
>> THE GREATER TRAGEDY IS THAT THE GUY IS NOW LOSS, AND THAT OTHER KID
HAS ACCIDENTALLY KILLED SOMEONE.
THAT HAS CHANGED HIS LIFE AND HIS
FAMILY'S LIFE FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
>> THE GUN HAS 1 BILLION TIMES HIGHER CHANCE OF KILLING YOU THAN
SOME GOVERNMENT CONSPIRACY YOU
ARE WORRIED ABOUT.

HOW JAPANESE REALLY SPEND NEW YEAR vs THE WEST! Who celebrates the best? - Duration: 14:01.
We go to watch the first sun rise.
You both wait some time before you go to a shrine. -That's right.
So NOT times square? - No definitely not.
We eat one grape with one of the chimes.
Hey it's Cathy Cat and today we have the pleasure to ask
foreigners and Japanese people and compare,
on the issue of how they celebrate the New Year.
New Year's in Japan is a BIG deal and it might be very different
compared to your country.
Let's go and ask Japanese and foreigners.
On New Year's it's a tradition that we go to my dad's parent's house.
We pray in front of the house shrine. A very traditional Japanese New Year.
- That's traditional. - It is!
What tradition is it?
We have a household shrine and make our prayers there.
I am from the countryside, so around our house there are only rice fields.
So you celebrate a deity? - Yes.
Wow.
I spend New Year's Eve every year with friends and we
listen to the 108 rings of the temple bell.
What's that?
Those chimes have to ring out before 00:00 on New Years night on time.
You go to a temple for that. Then we go and watch the sunrise.
So you stay up until then?
Yes we do that, and once all is done we go home and eat New Year's osechi food.
You don't get to sleep much that night. - That's true.
Once the new year starts you take time to sleep.
What New Year'S Osechi food is nice? Can you recommend something?
My grandfather makes the osechi every year.
Everything he makes is tasty...
There are also some large shrimps. It's tasty.
Do you eat osechi food too?
Do you make or buy it?
We make it at home.
My mother and grandmother make it.
I like the kurikuri kinton.
What is it made of? - It's made with marons.
Super sweet marons.
Does it take a lot of time to make Osechi?
A lot. My mum has to start on the day before to make it.
Getting everything ready to eat it on New Year's morning.
Why is there Osechi food?
It's our way to honor the start of the new year.
It has existed for many many years.
I am from Austria. - And where are you from?
I am from Finland.
Usually when it's new year we gather with my friends.
to my apartment or some other friend's apartment.
Then we drink and then usually go when it's midnight to see the fireworks.
Outside.
And then we continue partying.
Quite the same. We gather with friends at some apartment.
Then we go out into the city in Vienna and watch the fireworks
and then go out (clubbing).
Any traditions you do on New Year's?
We have thing thing called "lead pouring".
You have fluid lead which you pour into water.
Then it becomes solid form.
There is a catalog.
You can look at the shape and if it resembles one of the things
in the catalog it has a certain meaning.
If it's a mouse it can mean luck.
Oh no it was the pig which means luck.
And some other symbols.
YES! I remember! It's like an oracle. You have metal and you heat it
over a candle on a spoon and then you drop it into water.
Exactly, that's it.
- Do you do something like that in your country? - We have the same thing.
In Finland. We don't have any catalog.
We just watch it when it's in its final form.
Then we are like "Hm this resembles a horse."
And it tells something about your future.
How many days do you get off in the new year?
Two weeks. I think that's the Christmas Holiday length.
We're students.
So for students it's Christmas plus new years, two weeks.
Yeah, I think it's two weeks.
I go to relative's houses.
I go to my first yearly shrine visit.
I draw fortune slips and such.
I go to my grandparent's house and eat Osechi food.
I am at the age where I have to give New Year's money (Otoshidama).
I give my cousin some money.
How much do you give as pocket money? - Not more than 2-3,000 Yen.
- 3,000 per person? - 3,000 per person.
- I think you are giving quite a lot. - I think that's actually only a little.
How much do you usually give then?
Well my parents give about 5,000 Yen.
Up to 10,000 Yen.
Depending on the family? - Yes.
When you got your New Year's money as child,
is there something you remember buying with it?
When I was small I would buy myself games and such.
And more recently I bought myself clothes and such.
When I was small I bought myself games and such.
Recently, I tend to save it up and don't use it.
I have some Osechi.
Osechi is a traditional food box with many different types of food.
And every type of food has a certain meaning for the New Year.
That's why we all eat it every year!
It's very colorful and extravagant, made with many different ingredients.
When do you start eating Osechi?
New Year's day. On New Year's eve we all eat New Year's Eve Soba noodles.
New Year's Eve soba noodles on the 31st and then Osechi and Ozoni.
What's Ozoni?
Ozoni varies depending on the prefecture of Japan.
It's a soy sauce based soup, containing rice cakes
You eat it in order to have a good New Year.
That's what Ozoni is for.
So you eat, eat and eat. What else do you do?
I watch the Kouhaku song contest.
What's the Kouhaku then?
The most famous artists of this year...
are all coming together. Girls are the red team. Men are the white team.
Then they sing and score points.
Every year it's about if red or white wins.
Like a massive song contest. - Yes.
We also get Otoshidama. - Can you explain?
Otoshidama is money you get from your parents or relatives
Children get it with the wish to use it well during the year.
That's Otoshidama.
We also go to shrines and make our first prayers.
For example the Meiji Shrine.
I think there will be many people.
I wait a few days before I go to a shrine.
I wait until it's less crowded to make my new year's shrine prayers.
I also go to my grandparent's house and relax around there.
You both wait some time before you go to a shrine. -That's right.
Is it really that bad?
You can't really move forward and if you do you stay in a long cue.
That's not right for praying.
We are from America, NY.
Drink with your friends usually
... in either NY or you travel somewhere.
But you are usually drinking with friends and you get dressed up.
In NY if you spend it in the city, for people that live there...
you try to do whatever you can to avoid Times Square.
because every tourist from every part of the world is there.
It's too crazy for New Yorkers.
Aside from that you find somewhere warm...
with some drinks and some friends.
So NOT times square? - No definitely not.
Everyone counts down and then you cheers and then...
... if you are dating, you kiss.
or I guess if you are not dating, you kiss your friends.
Usually kiss something.
You are allowed to kiss your friends in that moment then?
Like "Ah well, we are both single, let's kiss."
- Yeah. - On the lips?
Uhm... sure.
Wow!
On New Year's eve all the family comes together and we eat hot pot.
We huddle together under the kotatsu to keep warm.
What's a kotatsu? Can you say it in your words?
It's a table that has a blanket attached to it.
If you switch it on, it's like an electric heater.
It gets all warm. If you put your feet under it...
It is super nice.
Celebrating into the New Year together with friends.
And in the afternoon or around lunch spend time with the family.
So everyone does a party for New Year? - Yeah.
What do you do on a New Year's party? A count down?
The countdown I spend with my friends.
We watch TV or we go to a shrine in the night.
When you go to the shrine, what do you do?
The first shrine visit of the year... I pull my yearly fortune slip.
If you pull a bad fortune slip, what do you do?
There is a place for that.
You tie the bad fortune slip there and pray for something good.
If you pull a great fortune slip, what do you do?
If I pull a good one, I take it home.
You put it in your wallet? - That's what I do.
If I pull a bad fortune slip, I pretend it didn't happen and pull a second one.
How would you like to spend New Year's this year?
I want to celebrate it with friends, like Christmas.
Christmas and New Years are parties with friends?
I choose party!
I want to celebrate into the New Year with friends and family.
I heard everyone eats Osechi food?
What's the most delicious one of those?
Tatemaki.
It's like an egg omelette. It's tasty.
I like shrimp the most.
A full fledged shrimp?
Generally there is only one in the box.
And I eat that one without hesitation.
Do you eat that one first or last?
First, before someone else gets it.
Where are you from? - Spain. Which city? - Bilbao.
Most of us have dinner with their families.
Inside the houses instead of going to a restaurant.
Then, when the 12 chimes of the last year ring, we eat
we eat Ubas? Grapes? That's right.
We eat 12 grapes when the...
When the clock is marking the last moments...
We eat one grape with one of the chimes...
Then we say "New Year!"
We celebrate new year.
Then after being with the family we go out with friends.
to celebrate with them. Going to parties and such.
Cool, so 12 grapes, really quickly.
Yumyumyum Happy New Year.
Yeah that's it. Normally you end up with your mouth...
full of grapes.
If you manage to eat them all in time it means you are lucky in the new year.
Where are you from? - Malaysia.
What do you do on NewYears?
We have a lot of malls. We have big fireworks.
on the big malls and maybe some parks.
Most of the time we just go to those places...
we just look at the fireworks for 10-20 minutes.
Or we just come there and wait for the fireworks.
So it's friends coming together, watching the fireworks.
Thank you very much much that was a lovely interview. Bye.
NEW YEAR!
For example what we do in the West we have fireworks,
we have drinks, we go to friends houses,
apparently in the US you are allowed to kiss which I found cool.
In Spain you eat the grapes really fast before the New Year.
In Japan there are so many traditions.
New Years in Japan and Christmas is like a swap.
Family time, everything of that is on New Years in Japan.
And celebrating with friends or your partner is on Christmas.
So it kind of gets switched around a bit of what we know in the west.
There are SO SO many traditions. I will try and summarize some traditions
that you have seen so far.
In the evening people eat long noodles which are supposed to symbolize
long life.
Many people watch the music TV show on that day.
Then you have the clock that strikes 12 so you do the count down.
You hear the clock from the temples ringing as well.
Sometimes you just watch that on TV how the bell gets rung for New Years.
And then people go out to shrines and sometimes temples
to get their New Years Omamori charm that is supposed to protect you
in the New Year or an arrow for the New Year.
And you draw your fortune slip for the New Year.
And after that you are allowed to eat Osechi Ryouri which is special food
that you eat only in this season.
People prepare it in advance and once it's New Year you're allowed to eat it.
If you buy those they are very expensive but they are also there to
release the mothers of lots of stress because you have them with rice
so in the new year there is not so much cooking going on.
I found that interesting as well.
Then there is Toshidama, which is the money during that
So instead of presents, kids get money in a little envelope that usually
has a cute character on it, for the New Year to spend on.
And that brings me to... LUCKY BAGS!
Obviously if kids and people get lots of money...
businesses make something out of that as well.
So you can stand in line right on New Years day
lots of shops have bargains with bags that have double the value in them
or many more time the value in them but you don't know what's in them
They are like surprise bags with great value that you can take advantage of
if you come here for the New Year.
I wish you a lovely happy New Year, have a great time!
All the best for 2017! Best wishes from Japan! Catch you soon! Bye!
Why are you hiding behind the curtain?

30 Million Americans Believe Pizzagate Is Real, Poll Claims - Duration: 2:51.
30 Million Americans Believe Pizzagate Is Real, Poll Claims.
by Baxter Dmitry.
Nearly half of all Donald Trump voters believe that Pizzagate is real and a pedophilia ring
is operating in Washington, a recent poll suggests.
The Economist/YouGov poll released Tuesday shows that 46% of Trump voters believe the
�Pizzagate� investigation, which began as an organic citizen investigation on popular
sites like 4chan and Reddit ahead of Election Day before gaining momentum on Twitter and
Facebook.
The survey results suggest mainstream media has lost its ability to influence the public,
as people go to the internet to investigate issues themselves rather than listening to
talking heads on TV.
Mainstream media continues to refuse to lay out the Pizzagate evidence for readers to
analyze, instead instructing them to take their word for the fact it is �preposterous.�
Whatever your views of fake news and where it comes from, Pizzagate does not qualify.
It is an organic citizen investigation that has amassed a huge haystack of evidence that
demands professional inquiry.
But even the media�s attempts to portray the scandal as �preposterous� has not
dissuaded a large block of Trump voters from believing the conspiracy.
The poll, which was conducted between Dec. 17 and 20, also showed that Trump voters were
far less likely than Clinton voters to fall for the joint report from the CIA and the
FBI that claimed Russia meddled in the election, without providing any evidence to back up
the claims.
A whopping 80% of Trump voters claimed that the intelligence community�s conclusion
was simply �not true.�
�Sometimes it seems that Americans will believe anything,� the poll takers stated.
�And what we know as true or not true can depend on our political point of view.�

Reporter: DONALD TRUMP
DOMINATED U.S. POLITICS IN
2016, WINNING THE PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTION AS A WASHINGTON
OUTSIDER.
THEY ARE CALLING TONIGHT
VERY, VERY HISTORIC.
Reporter: THE BILLIONAIRE
BUSINESSMAN WON THE GOP
NOMINATION OVER A CROWDED
FIELD OF ESTABLISHED
REPUBLICANS WHO HAD A HARD
TIME GAINING TRACTION.
TRUMP THEN DEFIED THE POLLS TO
DEFEAT DEMOCRAT HILLARY

THAT HIGHEST AND HARDEST GLASS
CEILING.
Reporter: SHE HAD A TOUGH
RUN AGAINST BERNIE SANDERS, AN
INDEPENDENT WHO GAVEL NEWSED
YOUNG VOTERS WITH A GRASSROOTS
CAMPAIGN AGAINST OLD MONEY.
I HAVE SAID I'M VERY SORRY
ABOUT IT.
Reporter: CLINTON WAS
UNABLE TO SHAKE OFF CRITICISM
OVER USE OF A PRIVATE E-MAIL
SERVER WHILE SECRETARY OF
STATE.
THEY FOUND SHE WAS CARELESS
WITH INFORMATION BUT NOT
CRIMINAL.
OUR JUDGMENT IS NO
REASONABLE PROSECUTOR WOULD
BRING SUCH A CASE.
Reporter: BOTH HER CAMPAIGN

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE

THEY BLAMED THE RUSSIAN

VANESSA MURDOCH IS HERE.
WAY TO PUT HER ON THE SPOT!
THAT'S WAY TOO MUCH.
WAY TOO MUCH FOR ME TO
EXPLAIN!
I TOTALLY KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT
I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT AT THIS
MOMENT IN TIME.
[ LAUGHTER ]
LET'S CHECK IN WITH OUR
WEATHER WATCHER THIS IS
EVENING.
HOPEFULLY YOU SAW SOME SNOW
TODAY!
MANY OF US DID.
AND WE DID GET TOTALS FROM OUR
WEATHER WATCHERS.
SOME OF THE MORE IMPRESSIVE
TOTALS OVER THE 3-INCH MARK.
IN MOST PLACES, 1/4 TO 1/2 AN
INCH.
CATHY KAHN SAYS 1/4 AN INCH IN
NEW MILFORD.
THIS CREATING SLICK ROADWAYS
OUT THERE THIS EVENING.
TEMPERATURES TOWARD THE
FREEZING MARK.
PATCHY, BLACK ICE, ONE OF OUR
BIGGER CONCERNS THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS.
VERY WINDY CONDITIONS IN
PLACES.
SO FIGHTING WIND GUSTS.
WINDCHILLS ARE DOWN THERE.
AND THEN IT'LL BE A CHILLY
NIGHT FOR THE BALL DROP.
BUT NOT HORRIBLY COLD!
LISTEN.
COMPARED TO THE COLDEST IT'S
EVER BEEN, WE'RE SITTING
PRETTY TOMORROW EVENING.
LEST TAKE A LOOK, SHALL WE AT
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
THE BALL DROP IN HISTORY.
THE WARMEST EVER, 58 DEGREES.
THIS HAPPENED TWO TIMES IN
HISTORY.
1965 AND 1972, THE COLDEST!
1 DEGREE!
THAT WAS BACK IN 1917.
WE'LL BE RIGHT IN THE, ALMOST
THE MIDDLE OF THOSE TWO.
TOMORROW NIGHT AT MIDNIGHT, 37
DEGREES.
A 20% CHANCE YOU'LL HAVE TO
DEAL WITH A LITTLE BIT OF
SNOW, A LITTLE BIT OF RAIN.
AND THE REASON IT'S UNCERTAIN
IS WE'RE SO CLOSE TO FREEZING
WE'RE HOPING THAT ANYTHING
THAT FALLS FALLS AS SNOW BUT
IT COULD BE A LITTLE RAIN.
NO REASON TO STAY INSIDE, I
ASSURE YOU.
WON'T BE THAT TROUBLING OUT
THERE.
WE DO HAVE SNOW SHOWERS
STREAMING ACROSS THE TRISTATE
AREA.
AND THAT CONCERN FOR BLACK
ICE.
IT SHOULD BE WRAPPING UP BY
11:00.
WE'LL NO LONGER SEE THE SNOW
SHOWERS MOVING THROUGH.
THEN TOMORROW NIGHT, THIS COLD
FRONT WILL SWEEP ON BY.
AND WITH THAT, THE OPPORTUNITY
FOR A LITTLE BIT OF WET
WEATHER AT THE STROKE OF
MIDNIGHT.
LET'S SHOW YOU WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE HOUR BY HOUR.
TONIGHT WE'LL GO FOR PARTLY
CLOUDY SKIES OUT THERE.
CHILLY.
WINDCHILLS IN THE TEENS AND
20s.
TOMORROW MORNING AS WE START
THINGS OFF, IT'LL BE PARTLY
SUNNY.
AND SEASONABLY CHILLY AROUND
40.
THEN AT 9:00 TOMORROW EVENING,
IF YOU'RE HEADING OUT EARLY,
NOTE WE HAVE THAT FRONT
PUSHING ON THROUGH.
WE MAY SEE SOME SPOTTY
SHOWERS, SPOTTY SNOW SHOWERS
BY 9:00.
AT 12:30, CLOSE TO THAT
MIDNIGHT HOUR, A LITTLE MORE
PRONOUNCED SIGNATURE HERE
SEEING THE WET WEATHER.
IT'S A POSSIBILITY, NOT A
CERTAINTY AS WE HEAD TOWARD
THE NEW YEAR.
BY SUBBED MORNING, THE FIRST
DAY OF 2017 -- BY SUNDAY
MORNING, THE FIRST DAY OF
2017, LOOKING SPECTACULAR WITH
LOTS OF SUNSHINE AND SO MUCH
WARMER TO BEGIN 2017!
TONIGHT, NOT WARMER.
IT'LL GET COLD.
30 IN THE CITY.
20s NORTH AND WEST.
IT'LL FEEL LIKE THE TEENS AND
20s OUT THERE.
PATCHY BLACK ICE IS
ANTICIPATED.
WINDS ARE AT 10 TO 20 MILES
PER HOUR.
TOMORROW, THOUGH, THE LAST DAY
OF 2016 GOES OUT ALMOST
PERFECTLY AS IT SHOULD.
A MIXTURE OF SUNSHINE AND
CLOUDS AND A HIGH OF 40.
WINDS TOMORROW 15 TO 20 OUT OF
THE SOUTHWEST.
SO WINDCHILLS TOMORROW WILL BE
IN THE 30s.
AND THEN AS WE MAKE OUR WAY
TOWARD THE FIRST DAY OF 2017,
TEMPERATURES JUMP UP BY ABOUT
10 DEGREES.
IT'S 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL.
MOSTLY SUNNY ON SUNDAY AND 49.
NOW YOUR EXTENDED FORECAST.
THAT WARM TREND TO START
THE YEAR CONTINUES FOR QUITE
SOME TIME!
THE NEXT FEW DAYS, IN FACT.
MONDAY, 44.
LIKELY TO SEE SOME WINTRY
WEATHER TURNING OVER TO RAIN.
TUESDAY, 54 DEGREES AND
LOOKING TO BE VERY SOGGY.
WEDNESDAY, WE'RE DRYING OUT AT
52.
AND THEN AFTER THAT, IT'S BACK
TO SEASONABLE FOR THE SECOND
HALF OF THE FIRST WEEK OF
2017.

THIS IS WHAT THEY'VE COME UP
WITH.
GET THAT GUY DOWN AND LET HIM

REASSURE THEM EVERYTHING IS
GOING TO BE OKAY.
STACEY, THE GOOD NEWS IS YOU

PEOPLE ARE IN A RIDE THAT'S
ENCLOSED AND NOT EXPOSED TO THE
CONDITIONS OUTSIDE.

RAINING EARLIER.

KATRINA FOR 30 DAYS AT A TIME.
THEY DO TRAIN HEAVILY FOR THIS.
THEY'RE SPECIFIC WITH WHAT THEY
DO.
THEY'RE NOT JUST THE REGULAR
GUYS THAT GO OUT AND FIGHT
FIRES.
THEY TRAIN A LOT FOR THIS.
THEY GO THROUGH RUBBLE, THEY GO
OFF THE BUILDINGS OFF THE TIME.
AS HARROWING AS IT LOOKS FOR US
ON THE GROUND, THIS IS THE
SPECIFIC UNIT WHAT THEY'RE
READY AND PREPARED TO DO.
I CAN'T IMAGINE BEING IN THE

Pro-Gun Columnist Shot Dead In Home - Duration: 8:38.
A TRAGIC STORY OCCURRED IN OREGON RECENTLY WHERE A PRO-GUN ADVOCATE BY
THE NAME OF MICHAEL HARMON WAS SHOT AND KILLED ACCIDENTALLY.
HARMON'S
WIFE DECLINED TO TALK ABOUT THE DETAILS OF THE SHOOTING.
THE
SHOOTING DID INVOLVE A 16-YEAR-OLD WHO WAS VISITING HIS HOME WITH HIS
FATHER.
APPARENTLY HARMON HAD HANDED HIM THE GUN TO I GUESS TOUCH IT OR
SEE HOW IT IS, AND HE ACCIDENTALLY FIRED A ROUND AND SHOT HARMON AND
DIED.
HE WAS KNOWN AS A CONSERVATIVE THINKER AND STAUNCH DEFENDER OF GUN
RIGHTS.
SO AGAIN VERY STAUNCH GUN ADVOCATE AND OBVIOUSLY THE STORY IS
MAKING HEADLINES BECAUSE OF THE IRONY OF HOW HE DIED.
NONETHELESS IT
IS TRAGIC AND SHOWS THAT THESE ARE LETHAL WEAPONS AND REGULATION IS
NEEDED.
WE DON'T WANT LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS TO NOT HAVE
ACCESS TO THEM,
BUT YOU SHOULD NOT GIVE A 16-YEAR-OLD A GUN ESPECIALLY IF
IT
IS LOADED.
>> EVERY GUN RIGHTS ADVOCATE WILL SAY I KNOW HOW TO HANDLE IT, I AM A
RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNER.
AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU SEE STORIES LIKE
THIS.
I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND, IT IS NOT THAT WE ARE AGAINST MICHAEL
HERMAN, WE ARE TRYING TO PROTECT MICHAEL HARMON.
HE WAS
A VIETNAM
VET, HE TAUGHT ENGLISH IN HIGH SCHOOL, HE TAUGHT AMERICAN HISTORY.
HE IS A 71-YEAR-OLD GUY, WE WANT HIM TO BE ALIVE AND ENJOY HIS KIDS AND
GRANDKIDS.
INSTEAD HE IS DEAD TODAY BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET IT THROUGH
YOUR HEAD THAT A GUN IS A DEADLY
INSTRUMENT.
IF YOU HANDLE GUNS
ENOUGH TIMES, AND ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE ACCESS TO THEM, THEY ARE GOING TO GO
OFF.
WHETHER YOU BELIEVE THIS OR NOT WE ARE TRYING TO LOOK OUT FOR YOU.
I
WISH THIS GUY WAS ALIVE TODAY.
>> THIS IS SOMETHING I HAVE MADE MULTIPLE VIDEOS ABOUT.
THAT IS WHAT
THE PRINCIPLE BEHIND GUN FREE ZONES IS ABOUT.
IF GUNS ARE IN AN AREA,
EVERYONE IN THAT AREA HAS A CHANCE OF BEING SHOT.
EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU
ARE MASTER RAMBO, MAY BE A KID ISN'T FOR SOMEONE WHO SLEEPS OVER AT YOUR
HOUSE ISN'T.
>>MAYBE YOU THOUGHT THERE WASN'T BULLETS IN THE GUN THAT DAY, BUT
THERE WAS.
>> IT ONLY TAKES ONE MISTAKE TO POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE, AND THAT
PERSON COULD BE USED.
>> I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL DISAGREE WITH THIS, BUT THINK ABOUT
THE LOGIC.
RIGHT NOW IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 21, AN ADULT
HANDING YOU A GLASS OF BEER IS A BIG DEAL, YOU ARE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO
BE IN AN ESTABLISHMENT WHERE ALCOHOL IS BEING SERVED TO
ADULTS.
>>THAT IS CORRUPTING A MINOR AND ILLEGAL.
>>RIGHT.
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO A GUN,
THAT IS NOT TAKEN AS SERIOUSLY.
>> ALSO ON PORN.
I DON'T WANT ANYONE HANDING 16-YEAR-OLDS PORN MAGS.
BUT
IF YOU HAD ONE TO A KID THAT IS A SERIOUS OFFENSE.
WHAT I RATHER HAVE
MY 16-YEAR-OLD HANDLING ONE OF THOSE OR A GUN?
NOT REMOTELY CLOSE.
WE ARE
SO FLIPPANT ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE IS ALL THIS PROPAGANDA THAT SAYS
GUNS ARE GREAT.
>> THE IRONY IS THAT HE WAS RUNNING SO MUCH OF THIS PROPAGANDA.
I SPENT
MY SUMMERS IN MAINE.
I DISAGREED
WITH SO MUCH OF WHAT HE WAS SAYING
BUT HE MADE REALLY COMPELLING ARGUMENTS THAT MAKES ME SO SAD.
HE
WAS SPEAKING OUT AGAINST FAKE NEWS FROM BOTH SIDES.
HE HAD A VOICE AND
A MESSAGE.
A MONTH AGO HE WAS TALKING ABOUT SEEING HIS GRANDKIDS
GROW UP.
LATER ON HE IS TALKING ABOUT THE SECOND AMENDMENT AND
PROTECTING IT.
THE IRONY OF IT ALL IS SO HEARTBREAKING.
THIS GUY WAS SO
INTELLIGENT.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE THIS DISCOURSE ON BOTH SIDES.
IT WAS AN EDUCATED READ.
IT IS INCREDIBLY HEARTBREAKING TO LOSE A
VOICE LIKE THIS FOR SUCH A STUPID REASON.
>> I THINK, UNFORTUNATELY, FOR SOME REASON YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE A
MEASURED RATIONAL POSITION.
YOU HAVE TO BE ON ONE EXTREME SIDE OF THE
ARGUMENT.
OFTENTIMES PEOPLE ARE LIKE NO GUN REGULATION WHATSOEVER, THEN
YOU HAVE SOME PEOPLE SAYING THEY WANT TO BAN ALL GUNS.
THERE ARE
REASONABLE ARGUMENTS THAT ARE SOMEHOW IN THE MIDDLE.
YOU DON'T DO
AWAY WITH OUR RIGHTS, OR A LAW-ABIDING CITIZEN HAVING ACCESS TO
GUNS, BUT YOU DO SOMETHING TO PREVENT UNINTENTIONAL DEBTS.
IN THIS
CASE IT COULD'VE BEEN PREVENTED.
IT IS A TRAGEDY.
WE DON'T BRING UP THE
STORIES TO POINT FINGERS, WE BRING THEM UP TO SHOW THAT THESE
ARE
PEOPLE WE DON'T WANT GONE BECAUSE OF OUR LAX GUN
REGULATION.
>> THE GREATER TRAGEDY IS THAT THE GUY IS NOW LOSS, AND THAT OTHER KID
HAS ACCIDENTALLY KILLED SOMEONE.
THAT HAS CHANGED HIS LIFE AND HIS
FAMILY'S LIFE FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.
>> THE GUN HAS 1 BILLION TIMES HIGHER CHANCE OF KILLING YOU THAN
SOME GOVERNMENT CONSPIRACY YOU
ARE WORRIED ABOUT.

Is Being A Police Officer More Dangerous Than It Used To Be? - Duration: 8:30.
2016 HAS BEEN A DEVASTATING YEAR FOR
MANY, INCLUDING SEVERAL POLICE OFFICERS AND THEIR FAMILIES AFTER
COPS WERE SHOT AND KILLED IN VARIOUS ATTACKS, SOME OF WHICH WERE AMBUSH
STYLE.
WHAT WE HEAR AND SEE IN THE MEDIA A LOT IS THAT THERE IS A WAR
ON POLICE OFFICIALS.
POLICE BEING TARGETS OF THESE KILLINGS IS WORSE
THAN BEFORE.
BUT WHAT DO THE NUMBERS INDICATE?
WHILE THESE DEATHS ARE
TRAGIC, IF YOU LOOK AT THE TRENDS AND NUMBERS, YOU SEE THAT 2016 IS
NOT ACTUALLY WORSE THAN PREVIOUS YEARS.
LET'S GET
TO THAT.
ALTOGETHER
SO FAR THE UNOFFICIAL NUMBER IS 64 POLICE OFFICERS WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED
IN THE LINE OF DUTY.
THAT IS A LOT OF COPS.
AS TRAGIC AS IT IS, YOU CAN
LOOK AT THE LONG-TERM TRENDS AND SEE THAT 2016 IS NOT THE WORST YEAR.
1973 WAS THE PEAK YEAR WHERE 134 OFFICERS WERE KILLED.
THE NUMBER WE
ARE CURRENTLY AT RIGHT NOW IS SIMILAR TO THE NUMBER BACK IN 2011.
2011 WAS THE LAST TIME WE HAD A NUMBER AS HIGH.
I AM BRINGING THIS
UP BECAUSE I THINK THERE IS A LOT OF MISINFORMATION AND FEAR MONGERING
OUT THERE.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT INFORMATION
AND DATA.
IT IS STILL DISASTROUS, AND I THINK CERTAIN PROTECTIONS NEED
TO BE TAKEN FOR COPS AND REFORMS NEED TO BE MADE TO PREVENT
POLICE
BRUTALITY AS WELL.
>> ALSO, BACK IN THE 70S, THE U.S. POPULATION WAS A LOT LOWER
THAN IT
IS NOW.
>>CONTEXT IS SUPER IMPORTANT.
TERRORISM IN EUROPE NOW FEELS
HORRIBLE.
IN THE 1970S TERRORISM IN EUROPE WAS FAR HIGHER BUT IT WAS
LESS HYPED UP.
BUT IT SEEMED LIKE IT IS A FAMILY FIGHT.
PEOPLE WERE
DYING, PEOPLE WERE BLOWING UP, IT WAS A TERRIBLE TIME.
THAT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY OF THESE ATTACKS TODAY ANY BETTER.
IT'S JUST AS HORRIFIC.
WE ARE
JUST TRYING TO GIVE YOU CONTEXT.
WHEN SOMEONE DOES A MISINFORMATION
CAMPAIGN AND THEY TRY TO SCARE YOU
INTO GOING THE WRONG DIRECTION, JUST
HAVE THE CONTEXT AND MAKE RATIONAL DECISIONS.
THE QUESTION IS HOW DO
YOU ACT TO PREVENT THESE DEATHS?
>> I CAN'T DECIDE IF THE MEDIA HAS A SELECTIVE OR SHORT-TERM MEMORY WHEN
THEY ARE PERPETUATING THIS NARRATIVE.
THE HIGHEST POINT WAS IN
1973.
JOHN, YOU MADE A REALLY GOOD POINT ABOUT THE DISPARITY IN THE
POPULATION.
WHAT WAS GOING ON IN 1973?
WE HAD THE BLACK LIBERATION
ARMY, THE BLACK PANTHERS, THEY HAD PEOPLE ON THEIR SIDE SAYING
KILL THE
POLICE.
TO EQUATE THAT WITH THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT IS
ABSOLUTELY NOT OKAY, BUT WE SEE IT MORE AND MORE.
THEY ARE NOT THE SAME
AT ALL.
THEY ARE NOT ADVOCATING FOR THE SAME THINGS.
WE ARE SEEING
PEACEFUL MOVEMENTS, ALL THESE PROTESTS GOING ONLINE AND AFFECT
CHANGE IN A PEACEFUL WAY THROUGH TWITTER.
YOU CAN HAVE THE
SPOKESPEOPLE FOR THIS MOVEMENT SPEAKING OUT IN A WAY.
WHEN
CLIFFORD, THE 10-YEAR-OLD IN YORK CITY THAT WAS KILLED, WE DIDN'T
HAVE
THESE – I DON'T KNOW WHY WE ARE SEEING MORE IN THE MEDIA THAT IT IS
THE WORST IT HAS EVER BEEN.
WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A WAR ON COPS
ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE.
IT IS IRRESPONSIBLE TO SAY THAT.
>> THE FOX VIEWERS WERE.
THAT IS WHY THEY USED THE TERMINOLOGY BACK
THEN.
A LOT OF THEIR VIEWERS WHO WERE 70 OR 80 NOW, WERE 30 OR 40 BACK THEN.
THEY TRY TO PRETEND THAT EVERYTHING IS THE SAME.
>>I THINK THAT IS TRUE WITH FOX, BUT IN REGARDS TO OTHER MEDIA THAT
ATTEMPT TO BE FAIR AND BALANCED AND CLAIM THEY HAVE NO BIAS.
WHAT THEY
REALLY DO IS JUST REGURGITATE PRESS RELEASES THAT THEY ARE GIVEN.
YOU
HAVE POLICE UNIONS AND POLICE ORGANIZATIONS GIVING THEM THESE PR
MATERIALS AND THEY LITERALLY REGURGITATE IT.
FOR SOME OF THEM IT
IS NOT EVEN ABOUT SELECTIVE MEMORY, IT IS JUST A LACK OF
FACT CHECKING
AND DOING THEIR JOB.
>> THERE IS ONE MORE POINT THAT GIVES YOU A SENSE OF THE EMPHASIS.
I
WANT YOU TO KNOW ALL THE FACTS.
IN DALLAS AND LOUISIANA COPS WERE SHOT
TRAGICALLY, AND THEY WERE PROTECTING BLACK LIVES MATTER PROTESTERS.
THEY
WERE SHOT BY TWO BLACK GUYS THAT WERE MAD AT COPS.
THAT IS REAL.
THEY
WERE NOT PART OF ANY BLACK GROUPS INCLUDING BLACK LIVES MATTER.
IN
FACT THEY WERE SHOOTING INTO A PROTEST THAT HAD BLACK LIVES MATTER
PROTESTERS.
SO HE HAD ACTUALLY BEEN KICKED OUT OF A BLACK LIVES MATTER
GROUP.
HE WAS BITTER ABOUT THAT.
ON THE OTHER HAND
THE OTHER GUY
MURDERED THESE TWO COPS FOR POLITICAL AMBITIONS.
I AM NOT SAYING
YOU NEED TO EMPHASIZE THE RIGHT-WINGER MORE, I AM JUST SAYING
ISN'T IT INTERESTING THAT ALMOST NOBODY EVER TALKS ABOUT HIM?
YOU
HEAR ONE OR TWO STORIES ABOUT THOSE GUYS, AND YOU NEVER HEAR ABOUT IT
AGAIN.
WE CARE ABOUT THE COPS BEING SHOT IN DALLAS AND MISSOURI.
BUT
WHEN YOU WATCH FOX NEWS AND REGURGITATED BY THE CNN'S OF THE
WORLD, ALL THEY LOOK AT IS THE DALLAS AND LOUISIANA.
AND THEY DON'T
COVER COPS BEING SHOT ELSEWHERE.
JUST THINK ABOUT WHY?
IF THEY CARED
ABOUT COPS THEY WOULD COVER THEM ALL EQUALLY.
THERE WAS SOME REAL RADICAL
GROUPS BACK IN 1973, SO THAT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM TODAY.
THE MOST OF
THE CUPS KILLED WERE KILLED DURING CRIME, NOT RADICAL GROUPS.
CRIME WAS
MUCH HIGHER 1973 THAN IT WAS TODAY.
EVEN THOUGH WE HAD A LOWER
POPULATION, WE HAD A HIGHER CRIME RATE.
THAT IS WHY MORE COPS DIED
BACK THEN.
THANK GOD CRIME IS LOWER NOW AND HENCE LESS
COPS DIE.

I'm Afraid To Speak My Mother Tongue | Disabled y Latinx - Duration: 1:22.
I'm afraid to speak my mother tongue.
I grew up with it. It was in my food, it was in my drinks.
It was sitting with my Abuelita,
or as I'd call her, Wela
listening about her life back in Cuba.
I grew up needing English in the hospital.
I grew up needing Spanish at home.
I grew up with immigrant parents who's second language was English
but they wanted to make sure English was my first.
I grew up loving speaking both English and Spanish at home.
But I grew up being ashamed of my Spanish every where else.
Because I've grown up in a country where to be American,
I shouldn't speak Spanish.
I'm afraid to speak my mother tongue.
And now because of this fear, I'm afraid to speak Spanish with the ones I love.
For fear of sounding too much like a gringa.
For the fear of messing up because I practice English more.
For the fear that I feel that although
my blood bleeds Cuba and Puerto Rico,
I can't claim Spanish as my own.
No matter how much I want to.
I love where my family comes from,
I love our food, I love our traditions,
I love our language but
Me da miedo hablar mi lengua materna.

Playing God(dess) - The Six Forces of Nature - Magic - Duration: 18:35.
Hey again! Alright, this's what you've been waiting
like three months for. Magic... as a force of nature. Not in the metaphorical sense,
but the quite literal sense among the four forces of nature.
Or, six forces of nature in fiction. I'll cover psionics next time, but for now, MAGIC!
So... why am I calling magic a force of nature? Well, if you're going to build a world from
scratch, you have to understand how stuff works so that you avoid plotholes and inconsistencies.
It doesn't have to be super-ultra rigorous or anything, just internally consistent.
For me, that means viewing everything from a scientific perspective. When it comes to
magic, that means I consider how it does what it does, and that involves much of the same
stuff we already know about physics, but skewed to work a lil bit differently.
This means that magic has a carrier particle - known as mana. It can be called all sorts
of things, from zeon to aetheric energy to whatever else you can think of, but it's basically
mana. Without this mana, there is no magic. Kind of like photons or electrons, if you
don't have either of those, you don't have electromagnetics.
Now this isn't just me making stuff up. Well it is, but it isn't. See, this's more of a
description of how magic is already used in fiction to begin with. For example, mana flows
in a very predictable manner similar to electrons - a path of least resistance. We see this
all the time, with the most obvious example being ley lines, which may as well be conductive
metal. Other examples are things like wands, or staves... again, basically the same concept
as holding an iron bar in a thunderstorm. I don't suggest holding the iron bar in a
thunderstorm. Just saying.
So before we go any further, what makes magic... work?
Four main things, really. First off, you need an energy source. Magic
doesn't just "magically" happen, as much as that would make sense. No, it still follows
the conservation of energy principle in which energy can neither be created nor destroyed,
merely reconfigured to another form of energy or matter.
We see this all the time in games, actually, it just doesn't seem obvious at first. The
concept of "mana" or anything similar at all, in fact implies this conservation of energy.
You don't consume the mana so that it disappears, you just change it into another form. The
mana was already present as a (super)naturally occurring form of energy to begin with.
The importance of this is that there must always be an energy source somewhere. Maybe
you draw upon the spirit world, or the warp from warhammer 40k, or the lifestream from
Final Fantasy 7, or some other variant upon such - it doesn't really matter the form it
takes, just that there's always something which supplies the energy to begin with. It's
just waiting there to be tapped. The second part of magic is a focusing agent.
This may be a unicorn's horn in My Little Pony, or a wizard's wand in Harry Potter,
or the gloves worn by the cabalists in hellgate for a few examples. The stereotypical wizard's
staff since at least Lord of the Rings is the same concept as well here - it doesn't
matter if you have a ton of mana just floating around you as an ambient source, you still
need to have some way to focus all that energy into a single spot so that it can be turned
into something actually useful. In many cases, this takes the form of the caster's own body
- in games and novels where only "some" people have "the talent" for magic, basically what
they're describing is the body having a low resistance to mana, similar to how some few
people just have a naturally low electrical resistance, allowing for them to conduct electrical
currents at an amazingly efficient rate. What this means is that energy can flow through
the caster like a lightning rod, drawing magical energy to them to be used. A walking battery
of sorts. This takes on a lot of different incarnations across various movies, books
and games, as well as even mythology and actual religions in reality - but it all boils down
to the same concept: you need an energy source, and a way to bring that energy together before
it can be properly utilized. Now that brings us to what we colloquially
call "magic" itself - the spell. A spell is... essentially a computer program,
for lack of a better term. The spell tells the energy you've gathered what to do, how
to do it and the specific details about exactly what's being done. Even a fairly simple spell
has an enormous amount of context which is needed to be able to get it to do what you
want. Consider the basic idea of "create water" as a spell for a moment here.
Alright, so you convert magical energy into matter, specifically water. Yay! That was
easy! Wait... but you need to tell it what water is - two hydrogen atoms spread at 120
degrees apart attached to an oxygen atom... and what atoms even are. More than that, you also need to specify exactly
where that water will appear. Want to create water inside someone's stomach? Oh. That's
uh... that takes some finicky calculations doesn't it? What defines "stomach" in this
case? You need some way to specify exactly where that water's going or it might just
be plopped into someone's bloodstream, which could very well kill them. You also need to
specify that the water doesn't just replace tissue which is already present, lest you
accidentally bisect someone. That would be kinda messy. At least you'd have lots of water
to clean it up on hand, so that's good I guess. Anyway, the point is that the spell itself
tells the energy what to do. This can take the form of rituals, summoning circles, hand
waving, chanting, all sorts of things. One of the novels from Shadowrun explained it
in a very eloquent manner I found - the act of drawing the summoning circle isn't the
spell itself, it's merely the organization of your thoughts in a particular manner. That's
why you can't just draw it out on a sheet of paper and dump it on the ground, the circle itself
doesn't mean anything, rather it's a step-by-step checklist of how to tell the mana what to
do. It doesn't really matter if you actually draw out the summoning circle with chalk or
not to be perfectly blunt, what matters is that you go through the mental motions of
basically printing off a circuitboard for the energy to travel upon so it knows what
it's supposed to do. This same concept can be applied to virtually
every form of magic ever imagined. Shamanism where you get your dead ancestors or some
spirits of the wild to do stuff for you? You still have to tell them what to do, and they
still are the ones to actually cast the spell, and it still requires input to know what to do.
What about using spell reagents in D&D? Yep, still used as a shorthand method of telling
the energy what you're trying to accomplish.
Even like uh, rune magic. Where you draw out the runes and then they trigger. Yeah, same thing.
So that's three out of four... but... but
what's the last bit? You already have a spell! That's the end of it, right?
We~ell, no. The last part is your triggering mechanism.
A lot of the time this's built into the end of a spell. If the spell itself is a program,
then the triggering mechanism is when you compile your spell's code and actually run the executable.
This isn't always built into the spell itself, though. Any sort of delayed spell, a trap, runes or warding
spells all have a separate trigger. Consider it to be like a safety match. Your
standard strike-anywhere match in old cartoons had both the ignition source and the fuel
together, so you could just strike it anywhere and poof, done. That was also dangerous as
hell. Today, virtually all matches come in three parts, the fuel is the wooden matchstick
itself, but the igniter is two separate stages - the tip has half of it, the box has the
other half. It's only when you put the two ignition halves together that you actually
get the fire started, which is an awful lot safer to use. As such, you may see this kind
of a thing show up in games or novels from time to time. Saorsa itself actually has a
two-stage casting sequence for it's spells where you build the spell's program into a
spell lattice, then you collapse the lattice as a separate action into the actual spell
for use, triggering it to actually perform the spell's actions. Meaning you can create
a spell long in advance and hold onto it, ready to release the moment it's needed at
a fraction of the normal cost, other than the fact that doing so would kind of keep
your attention busy elsewhere most of the time. And you couldn't cast another
spell if that one turns out to be inappropriate. You'd just have to lose it basically.
Anyway, what I'm getting at here is that the triggering mechanism for a spell is not actually
the spell itself, but a separate step which just normally happens to be built into the
spell in most cases, but it's important to recognize that it's a discrete action in and of itself.
Soooo with all of this, we now know that, even in fantasy, even in myth, even in actual
religions which practice magic in reality, or at least they believe they do, there's still a scientific basis behind all
of it. Magic is not, interestingly enough, magic. You can actually understand how it works.
In terms of how magic works in fiction, the
more you study it, the more it actually seems to work suspiciously similar to electricity.
Mana, or any other energy source for your magic regardless of what you call it, is essentially
the carrier particle for magic, just as photons and electrons carry electricity, gravitons
carry gravity, and the bosons, mesons and gluons handle the nuclear forces. So in this
case, "mana" is not a generic source of energy, but rather an actual particle which can be
exchanged back and forth. You can have metals infused with mana particles, which suddenly
means things like how cold iron supposedly works now makes sense! It's simply iron with
a positive mana charge, which causes it to negate the negative mana charge in most forms
of magic by prying away the free mana particles. This explains so much in a consistent manner,
from magical spells to enchantments to magically enhanced creatures to things like mythril
and orichalcum. Everything just kind of falls into place with a reliable predictability
of sorts. Yes, it's complex and has many facets of how it works, but by treating magic as
a fundamental force of nature, it actually ties together all the different forms of magic
in every book, every myth, every video game and every other source you can think of.
Magic is... a force of nature. Literally speaking. This grand, unified theory of magic allows
for every concept of magic which has ever been made up to coexist within the same setting.
Some forms may be incompatible with others more or less, much in the way an alternating
current and direct current don't play nicely together without an intermediate point of
conversion between the two, but they're technically the same thing.
With this concept, things like ley lines also make perfect sense - all they are in this
theory is a location where the natural resistance values are either low, or nonexistent. Meaning
you could quite literally build a magical superconductor.
But anyway, that's magic, and magic works on a broad scale. It's big, it's kinda clunky,
and you need an awful lot of energy to do even relatively simple tasks with magic. That
being said, magical energy tends to be quite abundant in most settings. Even the settings
where magic is really scarce, there's still actually quite a lot of it around when you
think about it, it's just not in a usable format most of the time. You need to "do"
something to be able to put the magical energy to work for you... namely, a focus and a spell
and trigger, and these may not be especially refined to performing magic on a regular basis.
It doesn't mean there isn't high background levels of mana, just that it's difficult to
access it most of the time. Psionics, on the other hand, work on a vastly
smaller scale, with very small bits of energy to create a cascading effect, more of rolling
a snowball down a hill where the hill is the other natural forces. Magic tends to do most
of the work on its own, psionics just acts as the initial spark. We'll get into that
next time though when we cover psionics, because it works similar to magic in some ways, but
vastly differently in others. If you want a hint on such though, we can
pretty clearly define the "alchemy" as portrayed in Full Metal Alchemist as actually being
psionics, not magic. Or more specifically, that the human characters in the show and
manga are technically using magic... but indirectly - they're using psionics to trigger a magical
effect. Sound weird? Well, you've got a few weeks to think about it before I explain it myself.
Unless... you're watching this in the future after I've already posted the psionics episode...
In which case I guess you can just go click that. Whatever.
Oh yes... and one last thing - HOMEWORK. Le garsp. We'll be covering magic in a lot more
detail later on in the Playing God(dess) series, but for now, your homework is to get the basics
out of the way. Figure out what the energy source of your magic is and what viable methods
of focusing that energy into a specific spot are available. Once you have an idea of what
your energy source is, and how to get it gathered into one location for use, then consider what
kind of methodology for using that energy source would likely arise. We'll get into
the traditions and spheres of magic later on, so the specifics aren't toooooo important
at the moment, just get thinking about where this would logically go is all.
And with that, I'm out. I'll see you next time!
Mana mana mo mana... wait that didn't work right.
Uh. Oh. I need to put more stuff here, huh? I uh, I only had the one lame joke.
Er... right. Well then, uh...
Two mages walk into a bar, and demand to see the staff. The bar wench pulls it out from under the counter and gives them a fireball a la flambe.
Yes, I made that crap up on the spot. This's what happens when I'm backed into a corner. So really, that awful joke is your fault.
