Neil Young
00:01:34 On the first part of the journey, I was looking at all the life there were plants and birds and rocks and things that were sands and hills.00:01:50 The first thing I met was the fly with the balls and the sky with no cloud.
00:01:58 The heat was hot and the ground was dry.
00:02:02 The air was full of sound.
00:02:07 The desert on a horse and donate and it.
00:02:10 Felt good to be out of the rain.
00:02:14 In the desert.
00:02:15 You can't remember your name because there ain't no one for to give you. No thanks.
00:02:37 For two days in the desert sun, my skin began to turn red. Now I was looking at a river bed.
00:02:44 After three days in the desert.
00:02:52 The story is told of the river that would make me sad to think it was dead. You see, I've been through the desert.
00:03:02 First with no name.
00:03:08 In the desert.
00:03:09 You can't remember your name because there ain't no.
00:03:46 After nine days, I let the horse run free.
00:03:50 The desert that turned to sea.
00:03:54 There were plants and birds and rocks and things. There were sand and hills and rains.
00:04:02 The ocean is a desert with its life thundered round down with the perfect. The skies are above.
00:04:09 Under the city's eyes are hard made brown.
Speaker 3
00:04:23 The rage.Neil Young

00:08:06 Right.Devon Stack
00:08:17 Well.00:08:17 Them too, the insomnia stream.
00:08:23 East Saint Louis Edition I'm of course your host, Devon Stack.
00:08:29 Ohh boy. East Saint Louis.
00:08:37 What a story do I have for you?
00:08:42 It's a, it's 100, it's over 100 years.
00:08:47 So it's a story that spans over a century.
00:08:54 What can be?
00:08:55 Learned from this story. You know, it's funny.
00:08:58 When I was driving across the country.
00:09:02 I was going from.
00:09:05 The West Coast to the East Coast.
00:09:08 In a car in a in.
00:09:10 A.
00:09:11 ****** old Chevy cavalier.
00:09:15 And I drove through.
00:09:17 Saint Louis. You know, the the freeway goes, actually.
00:09:21 Pretty close to the the arch.
00:09:25 And I've never. Yeah, I never been to that.
00:09:27 Part of the.
00:09:27 Country before and I just remember thinking, wow.
00:09:30 It's ****** here.
00:09:32 Like the the freeway was all torn up there. Like at least 70% of the the cars on the road were like these ghetto falling apart cars.
00:09:44 You know, driven by.
00:09:45 They well, ghetto black people not following any kind of traffic etiquette or laws for that matter.
00:09:56 And I was just like, wow. Holy ****, let's play sucks.
00:10:01 But apparently there's something worse. There's something worse.
00:10:06 Than regular Saint Louis.
00:10:09 It's called East Saint Louis. It's across the river in Illinois.
Numbers Lady
00:10:14 Yeah.Devon Stack
00:10:17 But it wasn't always bad. Like a lot of these stories.00:10:23 That we go over on this stream.
00:10:25 It wasn't always bad. Something happened.
00:10:29 Something happened that made it bad.
00:10:33 Something happened.
00:10:36 You might say.
00:10:39 So white replacement happened, you might say that the story we're going to tell tonight.
00:10:47 At least the very beginning of it has a lot of parallels with stories that you see beginning today.
00:10:56 Stories that will probably go on like this story has for a century or more.
00:11:07 Hopefully the.
00:11:09 The final chapters of of the stories beginning today.
00:11:15 Don't line up with the final the it's.
00:11:17 I guess it's not the final chapter yet of this story.
00:11:22 But yeah, this is it's rough. It's a little rough, right? Let's get let's just get going. So if you have, I mean, look, this is one of the.
00:11:32 The big stories you hear.
00:11:35 From the other side, the other point of.
00:11:37 View.
00:11:39 I'll tell you the the official story.
00:11:43 Well, sort of. I'll. I'll tell you the official story as with with.
00:11:48 With most likely what actually happened, so the official story.
00:11:54 Is east.
00:11:56 Saint Louis.
00:11:59 Had a lot of manufacturing.
00:12:02 Have meat packing plants.
00:12:05 Had a lot of industry required, a lot of Labor.
Speaker 8
00:12:10 You had a lot of.Devon Stack
00:12:10 Eastern European immigrants that were working a lot of these jobs.00:12:17 And because they were being worked to the bone.
00:12:23 They decided to strike for better.
00:12:26 Hours and better pay. This sort of a thing.
00:12:32 And So what the?
00:12:34 Industrialists that ran the factories decided.
00:12:39 They would just import black people from the South.
00:12:44 And have them do the jobs that the you know, the jobs that that Americans won't do. Right, let's bring in the cheap labor that that will they'll just shut up and.
00:12:56 Do what we say.
00:12:58 It's a libertarian dream, right? It's. Well, they're not willing to do it for the the pay that we're giving, we'll find someone that will.
00:13:11 So they start importing blacks from the South and look the South was all too happy to to see them go. In fact, the South people in the South were promoting, yeah, go go to go, go to East Saint Louis. Or if you can't find a job there, you won't.
00:13:27 Be able to find a job anywhere.
00:13:31 So blacks in the South started to flood into East Saint Louis. The problem is they came and in much larger numbers than what was required.
00:13:42 There wasn't enough jobs for all of the blacks that flooded into East Saint Louis, or many of the the northern cities, the northern cities.
00:13:52 That had been very critical of the South for the last century or so.
00:13:57 So this is around 1917.
00:14:00 Over 100 years ago.
00:14:03 You've got all these blacks flood into East Saint Louis, and there is.
00:14:11 Crime that comes with the unemployed blacks that flood into East Saint Louis and there is racial tension.
00:14:22 Between the the white people who are trying to unionize and and negotiate for better pay, and these unemployed blacks and the the criminal element, and the few scuffles, nothing too crazy.
00:14:43 And then.
00:14:49 One night.
00:14:51 Believe in June.
00:14:53 Of 1917.
00:14:56 Two police officers.
00:14:58 Go to investigate some crime that's going on in the black part of the city.
00:15:05 Now the official story.
00:15:06 Because that this doesn't work out for.
00:15:09 For the historians of today, they would like you to believe that.
00:15:14 White people rose up for no reason at all one day and just started killing all the black people.
Numbers Lady
00:15:19 Yeah.Devon Stack
00:15:21 So this story this I'll tell.00:15:23 You their version of the story is.
00:15:27 White people were going through and doing drive by shootings 1917. They were doing drive by shootings in the black part of town. You know, those white people often do. Going to the black part of town and.
00:15:41 Doing drive by shootings.
00:15:45 No one was killed, but apparently that and there's no record of this actually happening, but the the the story that the black people say is that's what the white people were doing. And so when the cops rolled in to the black part of town, they assumed.
00:16:00 That they are white people coming there to do.
00:16:03 A drive by shooting.
00:16:05 So of course they opened fire on the cops, killing them both.
00:16:10 Because they thought they were white people that were going to do a drive by shooting.
00:16:16 That's that's that's really the official story. So these two cops get killed.
00:16:23 And they they have their cop car.
00:16:27 Riddled with bullets.
00:16:29 In front of City Hall.
00:16:31 While they.
00:16:33 All the white people gather in City Hall. They're like we.
00:16:36 Got to do something about.
00:16:38 These black people, now they're ******* shooting cops.
00:16:42 Now they're shooting cops.
00:16:45 And they they're taking our jobs. They're ruining our city. Our city used to be nice.
00:16:55 And so they, the official story is.
00:16:59 They decided to go to the black part of town and just start killing all any and all black people burning down their their part of town. And you know, in a in a violent rage, hanging black people from lamp posts and all this other stuff.
00:17:15 The crazy thing is the the numbers.
00:17:18 Of of people killed, black people killed. It's all.
00:17:22 Over the map.
00:17:24 It's all over the map, some sometimes you read it, it says it's it's 25 people, sometimes it's it's 100 people, sometimes it's 200 people, sometimes it's so many and we'll never know because of all the bodies that floated down the river or all the bodies that were burned up inside the buildings that were burned and.
00:17:44 And whatnot.
00:17:50 And the end of the story, the way that it's told today is this is an example of white supremacy. Black people just minding their own business, trying to make an honest living in America.
00:18:07 And the white people couldn't stand the fact that black people were being successful.
00:18:14 And so they went on a murder spree.
00:18:18 And started killing everybody and burning down their town.
00:18:24 And again, the the the ridiculous.
00:18:28 The two cops getting shot to death by the black people part like that gets glossed over. It's like it's in fact, it's not even mentioned in some of the tellings of the story.
00:18:38 The fact that the catalyst, as is often the case when when there's a riot involving black people.
00:18:45 The catalyst is never something that's reasonable. The catalyst is never Oh yeah, black people were letting their own business when all of a sudden that's never really the case.
00:18:58 But anyway, as I said, that was over 100 years ago. That was 1917.
00:19:07 The city went through a lot of ups and downs. The black population mostly downs the black population S the OPS, where the black population of the Downs were essentially every metric imaginable.
00:19:24 Despite this, this horrific.
00:19:29 Explosion of white supremacy. Blacks kept flooding into the city.
00:19:35 And whites began to flee the city.
00:19:41 And it went from a booming, industrious city.
00:19:47 That took a sharp downturn beginning around the the 20s and 30s. And then just, you know, rapidly downhill from there.
00:19:58 You go to.
00:20:01 East Saint Louis today.
00:20:03 It's almost entirely black. The governments black and well.
00:20:11 Let's have a little look this here was the Majestic Theatre.
00:20:17 In the 1920s, this is what the Majestic Theatre looked like.
00:20:25 There was one of the fanciest theaters.
00:20:29 And not just in, you know, in Illinois, but in America.
00:20:36 This is the majestic theater today.
00:20:43 Here's the inside of the.
00:20:45 Majestic theater today.
00:20:51 Not so, not so majestic these days.
00:20:59 And this is kind of.
00:21:03 Symbolic of really the rest of the city.
00:21:07 I mean the least the parts that are even still standing, a lot of the the city doesn't even stand there anymore.
00:21:07 For.
00:21:15 Here's a guy that very recently drove through downtown downtown.
00:21:22 Like the center of of this.
00:21:25 Of East Saint Louis, which used to be a a booming city.
00:21:30 And this is what you see today.
Speaker 9
00:21:36 It was one of the grandest in the United States.00:21:41 But it's sat empty for a very, very long time. I hate to see that. That's a damn shame.
00:21:54 You look at it.
00:22:00 This is the heart of downtown here.
00:22:05 You can see that it's.
00:22:07 Pretty much an empty shell.
00:22:11 They've got a building here called the Spivey Building, tallest building in town, the only skyscraper.
Speaker 10
00:22:21 I'm going to.Speaker 9
00:22:22 Get a little bit closer to it.00:22:23 It's right there.
00:22:25 And I'll tell you about it. But anyway, yeah, this is.
00:22:30 Main intersection in town.
00:22:34 Even one of the bulbs is out and the lights in the traffic lights like down that way.
00:22:54 I don't think that is happening anymore. There no more live entertainment, I would think.
Devon Stack
00:23:01 So this is.00:23:02 The Spivey building.
00:23:05 This is the town's first and only skyscraper.
00:23:12 It was built by well, Mr. Spivey, who I think owned a newspaper and was hoping that the city still had a bright future. The demographics hadn't changed yet. I think it was built around 1920 or so.
00:23:30 And the expectation was this was the first of many to come.
00:23:35 But the demographics were rapidly shifting, and so it was the first and last.
00:23:41 Skyscraper ever built and this is what it looks like today.
Speaker 9
00:23:52 I'm heading down this little side street towards the Spivey building.00:23:59 Built in the mid 1920s by the wealthy owner of the local newspaper, his name was Spivey. His idea was to kick off the St. East Saint Louis downtown, make it one of the greatest in the area.
00:24:18 His commitment to the future, if you.
00:24:20 Will it failed though?
00:24:24 The building was the prominent address in the city.
00:24:29 For many years, but in 1980.
00:24:33 The last tenant left.
00:24:35 And this building has been set in here empty.
00:24:40 For 43 years, it's astonishing.
00:24:47 They've got the street on either side of it, blocked off. You can't come in here except for this little side.
Speaker 3
00:24:52 Road I just took.Speaker 9
00:24:54 The reason being is because the building is literally.00:25:01 Disintegrating onto the street and it's become dangerous.
00:25:07 And you can see the debris on the ground here. So they don't want people walking around it.
00:25:18 But this little side Rd. here, you could still.
00:25:20 Get in here.
00:25:22 Now I'm not going to go in there, guys. Sorry I came out here yesterday and I saw.
Speaker
00:25:28 Well, I saw some.Speaker 9
00:25:29 Folks walking in there that I wouldn't want.00:25:31 To tangle with.
00:25:32 So I'm not going to.
00:25:33 Go in there, but you can get a little bit of a look here.
Devon Stack
00:25:38 So that's the.00:25:41 That's the gem of downtown the the Spivey building.
00:25:47 Here is a photo of what the downtown looked like when it was still limping along. It hadn't quite collapsed. You can see the Spivey building right there on the right.
00:25:59 This was, judging by the cars it looks like.
00:26:03 Probably the 40s.
00:26:06 1940s.
00:26:09 So I hadn't quite.
00:26:11 Collapse because even as like with most of these cities that were the demographic shift dramatically to black, and you'll see how dramatically here in a moment.
00:26:24 Usually there's there's a tipping point, usually even when it's like 70% black, the people running the city remain white.
00:26:35 And it's not until.
00:26:38 You have activists, often Jewish activists, come in and and organize the blacks politically and elect their own leaders. And then at that point, the rest of the white people leave because they're just like, well, ****, you know, we know where this is going and.
00:26:58 You get several cities. This just happens to be probably one of the worst examples. There you go. Here's another.
00:27:07 Shot. I don't think that's the spy. Maybe that's the spy building. I think it might.
00:27:10 Be.
00:27:10 A different one, but this is the downtown, you know, like if you this is this was again same same same part.
00:27:17 Of the world.
00:27:19 This picture and this picture.
00:27:25 Same part of the world, this picture.
00:27:29 This picture.
00:27:34 The neighborhoods surrounding the downtown resemble well, like Detroit, or a lot of these other cities where blacks moved in and displaced whites.
00:27:47 There's just houses, you know, beautiful Victorian homes, crumbling.
00:27:54 Away.
00:27:56 Trees and plants overgrowing them and.
00:28:00 And uh.
00:28:03 Yeah, it's like a post apocalyptic movie set.
00:28:09 East.
00:28:11 Saint Louis is the murder, murder capital of America.
00:28:18 It's number one in America.
00:28:26 The rate is they.
00:28:28 It's funny because they do some funny math to make it not show up, but if you actually do the math.
00:28:34 It's significantly higher.
00:28:37 Then Jackson, which is.
00:28:40 And is ranked number one, but is really a second place.
00:28:46 Were they? If you do the math, it's 137.
00:28:51 .5 murders per 100,000.
00:28:59 Now here's the demographics.
00:29:04 It's 95% black.
00:29:09 2% white.
00:29:13 1% Hispanic, 1% Asian and 1% mixed. So it's almost.
00:29:18 Almost entirely black.
00:29:22 The government is also.
00:29:25 Pretty much entirely black.
00:29:28 The law enforcement is also pretty much entirely black. It's.
00:29:34 It's a chocolate city, you might say.
00:29:39 Now, like I said, this problem didn't happen overnight.
00:29:44 1917 was the.
00:29:47 The East Saint Louis massacre, as they call it these days, the massacre, when whites rose up for no one day for no reason at all, whites just freaked out and started killing black people.
00:30:00 And.
00:30:03 And then I guess, calm down for a little bit and blacks kept moving there despite the the white supremacy.
00:30:14 And the problems?
00:30:18 As as slow and steady as they were, we actually have a few little bookmarks, if you will, historic bookmarks. We can check because the decline has been so.
00:30:34 Extreme.
00:30:37 They first started reporting on this decline.
00:30:41 Very early on, as early as the the 1960s.
00:30:46 Especially because the 1960s.
00:30:49 And 70s you had all the race riots that were happening in similar cities and East Saint Louis was no different. CBS did a report on the problems with East Saint Louis.
00:31:05 And again, this was I don't I I couldn't find numbers of what the demographics were at at the at when they made this.
00:31:14 Report. But just judging by the footage and and, it looks like it's it's probably.
00:31:22 It's not, it's not 95% black, it's it's looking like it's maybe like sixty 4060% black. So like the white majority is gone at the time that they make this and the blacks are slowly taking over the city in terms of the the political.
00:31:42 Apparatus there. So here's a report.
00:31:47 As I said, I believe this is.
00:31:50 Late 1960s, but it might be very early 70s. They might say here, but if it's if it's early 70s, it's like 71 or something like that.
00:32:01 But here we go.
00:32:08 I'm not.
Speaker 11
00:32:12 Once Upon a time, when America was very young, we thought in unity, there is strength.00:32:22 Well, then we got a little older and a little sure of ourselves and we thought in diversity. There's survival. Well, recently there's been so much diversity, so many differences of opinion to be specific, that our survival itself has seen threatened. If this were China, we might have called 1969 the year of the short Fuse.
00:32:43 So many groups have been mad at so many other groups that it sometimes looks as though people are running on anger. The like cars run on gasoline, things we would have laughed at only a few years ago. Get us furious these days, and in the confusion, there's a sense that people have lost contact with one.
00:33:00 Than other, whether it's large cities or small towns, democracy doesn't seem to be working the way it once did. If it did, people vote and vote and vote right or wrong, right or left, and nothing much changes the ghettos, the war, the taxes. They're all still with us hanging there like the pollution that just won't blow away.
00:33:23 And so there are a lot of short fuses, but then of course this isn't China.
00:33:29 For the sake of argument, not to mention accuracy, it's East St. Louis, IL, across the Mississippi River from St. Louis, MO. As a community East Saint Louis has most of the problems. Most of our other communities have, and then some.
Devon Stack
00:33:48 Ah, yes, but let's not address what the actual problem.00:33:51 That this Community has has explicitly as required in order to to solve such a problem. So the the the problems have already begun. It's no longer, you know, the the the city is already in freefall at this point. Again, I think this might be like 1970.
00:34:12 Or 71 because he talked about 1969 is if that was in the past tense. So what they do is they they go through and and they're baffled by the ghetto.
Speaker 12
00:34:22 Those.Devon Stack
00:34:23 Why are the ghettos all throughout the America America? Why are they not going away? Why are?00:34:27 These ghettos here.
00:34:29 And it's the same story in all the major cities of America. The Great ***** migration, you know, all the blacks that came up from the South up to these northern cities.
Speaker 13
00:34:39 The white people.Devon Stack
00:34:39 Fled the cities and that's what was in progress or well underway, I guess you could say in East Saint Louis by the early 70s and so you had all these white cops that were still because the you know the.00:34:57 Power structure was still intact, barely barely hanging on the political power of the black people that they were about to change. That, and we'll have our bookmark. And like I said, there's thankfully there's there's been a lot of reports about about East Saint Louis over the years. And so we'll we'll be able to hit the Fast forward button and see how things.
00:35:15 Progress shall, shall we say, in this, in this Great American city.
00:35:21 But in the early 70s, when they did this report, they were concerned that there was there was friction between the white.
00:35:27 Cops. You know, the more.
00:35:29 Things change, right? The more they stay the same, there's a problem with the white cops and the way that they're treating the black people, the the black people feel like they're being unfairly treated by the white.
00:35:40 Cops. They can't possibly be that they're committing more crime. It can't possibly be that they, you know, sometimes there's there's only one language that they understand, and the cops need to be fluent in it or else, you know, the whole social fabric will will dissolve.
00:36:01 In an instant, no, it's it's the white cops are just treating the black people unfairly and too heavy-handed, and and that needs to change. And that's really the reason why there's all these black.
00:36:14 Guidos is because it's the white man holding them down somehow. So in this episode of this, I believe this is CBS News. They follow a couple of cops, white cops that have to work in East Saint Louis and they.
00:36:34 Decide to come up with with some unique solutions, unique for the time to these these issues that they're having with the black.
00:36:44 People.
Speaker 11
00:36:45 By 1917, conditions were bad enough to cause one of America's first genuine race riots. East Saint Louis was almost 50 years ahead of its time. In that respect, the city never put more than band aids on the causes of those riots, and even when blacks achieved a majority in numbers.00:37:05 Not only the minority of power.
Devon Stack
00:37:09 Well, you see the causes of these problems are the blacks.Speaker 6
00:37:15 It's it and I'm.Devon Stack
00:37:17 This will become abundantly clear, I think, by the end of this string, but I think most people kind of are coming around to that, that this this way of thinking these days is like wow, you know what?00:37:26 This whole time.
00:37:27 It it wasn't. The white cops, believe it or not, it was. It was black people making black city.
00:37:34 ******. Like who would have thought? Right? Who have thought that? It's not like some magical KKK demons like crawling around in the sewers making crime happen in the black communities?
00:37:46 But in 1970s, because they're pushing a lot of this diversity stuff, they're pushing the, you know, like the, the busing of black students to white schools, forced desegregation. You have affirmative action on the way DI, you know, on the horizon, all this stuff. They can't.
00:38:07 They can't say that they have to come up with like, well, there's there's got to be some outside force causing this problem, and it's probably white people.
Speaker 11
00:38:15 Unemployment, especially among blacks, rose sharply.00:38:20 So did anger.
00:38:22 By the.
Devon Stack
00:38:23 See the decay has already begun.00:38:29 Already you're looking at these these shots of the downtown and by the early 70s.
00:38:36 East Saint Louis was already a hot ******* mess. It was already like falling apart this building here that we're looking at probably isn't even standing anymore, right? This this is probably been like knocked down, but already it looks like, you know, it's it's and it's it's at this point, it's they they don't see what the exact number is, but they say it's it's majority.
00:38:56 Black down. At this point it's majority black. By the early 70s here.
Speaker 11
00:39:01 The spring of 1969 E Saint Louis was a riot waiting to start. The ingredients were all present and accounted for a black ghetto that's overcrowded and underemployed and a nervous Police Department that was called ignorant and trigger happy by many of the very citizens that were supposed to protect.00:39:25 Shoot your weapon.
00:39:30 One of the policemen is Tom Hunter. He's been on the force almost two years and he's a textbook police officer. He'd like to become a detective and has solved 1 murder.
00:39:43 Officer Hunter is a family man. He has five children. He was brought up in a section of East Saint Louis that is now mostly black, but he doesn't live there anymore. As blacks have moved toward the center of town, he's moved farther.
00:39:58 Way, although he enforces order in a community where whites have become a minority, Tom Hunter remained personally as well as geographically aloof from the majority before last May.
Speaker 14
00:40:04 OK.00:40:13 I was born in East Saint Louis and I was raised in East St.
00:40:15 Louis.
00:40:17 I lived in the same.
00:40:19 For 16 years.
00:40:23 I worry about the safety, my children all the time.
00:40:27 OK.
Devon Stack
00:40:29 So this is this is what you're headed towards Europe.00:40:34 Oh yeah, I lived in this part of town. It was. It was mostly white and.
00:40:40 Now it's mostly not white like London, right?
00:40:44 One that is down to like 30. Was it like 37% white? Something stupid like that.
00:40:51 Yeah. Well, just just so.
00:40:53 You know, this is this is where it's headed.
Speaker 14
00:40:55 Being a policeman and providing security for my family.Devon Stack
00:41:00 That's him.Speaker 14
00:41:02 Protecting some of the ideals that I believe in, I feel that I'm very good father. Good provider for my children.Speaker 11
00:41:14 Dispatch 28. You got my tow truck on the way to.Speaker 15
00:41:17 36 or.Speaker 11
00:41:17 Region negative. I'll put it on the way now.Speaker 14
00:41:22 Right. Feel strong about being a police officer.00:41:26 There has to be authority, there is a need for law and order. If any society is to survive.
Devon Stack
00:41:35 If any society is to survive.00:41:38 So he seems like just like you're, you know, like a decent white guy. He's a father, he's a provider for his family.
00:41:47 He had to flee the part of town that he was raised in because now it's inhabited by violent black people.
00:41:55 And that's his beat. That's where he has.
00:41:57 To go and patrol.
00:41:59 And keep the black people from committing crime and arresting them when?
00:42:03 They do.
00:42:06 Then they introduce us to this officer here.
Speaker 11
00:42:11 A lot of people think the toughest policeman in East Saint Louis is Bill Jeremiahs. They say he'll defend the force against any attack, and if there's no attack, he'll defend it anyway.00:42:27 Sergeant Jeremias is a veteran of five years on the force. He's been charged three times with police brutality.
Numbers Lady
00:42:36 Thanks guys, but I need more. I want to.Devon Stack
00:42:40 Become an absolute unit.00:43:11 Dot dot dot dot dot dot.
Speaker 11
00:43:15 Fellow officers admire his muscle. Blacks call him a bully. He's for safe neighborhoods. And what Sergeant Jeremiah seems to mean by safety is a curfew that starts at noon.00:43:31 As for what all those black folks downtown are so riled up about, Bill Jeremiahs.
00:43:36 Couldn't tell you.
Devon Stack
00:43:39 Good old bill Jeremias. The absolute ******* unit. So you gotta.00:43:48 Bill Jeremias, who's a police brutality in his way through the streets.
00:43:54 And taking care of business.
00:43:59 Then they introduce us to the the other side.
00:44:03 The the Blacks that are in.
00:44:06 East Saint Louis.
00:44:07 I was born in the ghetto.
Speaker 11
00:44:17 His vice president of the Black Egyptians.Speaker 6
00:44:21 Hey.Speaker 11
00:44:33 Our military group, whose members see themselves as defenders of the black community, their natural enemies, they say, are the police bill Luckett himself has been arrested once by Officer Hunter and once by Sergeant Jeremiah.Devon Stack
00:44:49 So yet the we was kings Black Egyptians, which is like a knock off I guess, of the Black Panthers.00:44:56 And it's it's just an anti police gang.
00:45:02 And it's organized crime.
00:45:06 But I guess this is the other side, right?
00:45:10 And they decide because it's the 1970s.
00:45:14 And this is just the the stupid **** that they did. This was.
00:45:17 The beginning that.
00:45:18 The way to to solve the the crime.
00:45:22 The skyrocketing crime in East Saint Louis is to send all those cops, these white cops, and these we was kangs black guys to sensitivity camp.
00:45:41 Yes. So it's like summer camp, they they put them on a bus.
00:45:46 And they take him to some cabins in the woods.
00:45:49 To talk about their feelings.
00:45:52 And they they they have the the white cops put on black masks and pretend to be black people. And the the black people put on these creepy white people masks. It's like the gayest **** ever. Of course.
00:46:08 And but it's innovative and you know it's it's a bunch of ******* hippie ****. Bunch of ******* boomer hippie ****.
00:46:16 They're like, oh, yeah, this will solve it. We'll just we'll pour all this. All these money, all this money and resources into this ridiculous ****.
00:46:27 Because we're too afraid to just state the obvious, we're too afraid to say. You know, this city operated a lot better when it was majority white.
Speaker 8
00:46:38 This city, the.Devon Stack
00:46:39 Crime rate seems to be going up in tandem with the black population.00:46:48 It seems pretty obvious what's going on here.
00:46:52 In fact, this cities problems began.
00:46:56 When the blacks first started showing up in 1917.
00:47:03 And the first race riots begin.
00:47:06 And it's just been downhill since then.
00:47:10 But they can't say that, of course. So they put stupid masks on these people at summer camp and have them role play. And that's supposed to fix something.
00:47:24 And they turn the absolute unit into kind of a fagot because he's like, oh, I guess, I guess the blacks.
00:47:30 Aren't so bad.
Speaker 11
00:47:33 The days of punching people on nose for doing something wrong.Speaker 12
00:47:37 And days are over.Devon Stack
00:47:39 No, them days shouldn't be over.00:47:41 You see, you see what happened, Jeremias? Officer. Jeremias.
00:47:46 You are the only thing standing in the way.
00:47:50 Of complete societal collapse, which we will soon see.
00:47:55 You going around punching people in the nose for doing stuff wrong? That was the only thing in the way.
Speaker 16
00:47:55 Yeah.Devon Stack
00:48:03 Of of complete chaos.00:48:07 But they because they sent you the ****** camp.
00:48:10 To go hang out with the we was King's crew.
00:48:14 So that you could pretend to be like ohh look, we're buddies now.
00:48:18 Racism solved.
00:48:20 We fixed it.
00:48:25 It all fell to pieces.
Speaker 11
00:48:26 Despite some real gains in police community relations, the obstacles to long term progress remain about what they were. Clearly, it will take a good deal more than sensitivity to solve the hard problems of East Saint Louis.Devon Stack
00:48:40 Yeah. Sorry I hate.00:48:41 To break it, see we're looking.
00:48:44 Right now, that's a picture that's the problem with East Saint Louis.
00:48:49 It's on the screen right now. You were zooming in on it as you talked about it. I don't think you meant to do.
00:48:54 That, but you were doing that?
00:48:56 That's the problem with East Saint Louis.
00:49:03 And you would think that if this was a problem you could solve with money and sensitivity sensitivity training.
00:49:11 That a century.
00:49:13 Will be long enough, right? A century.
00:49:17 Would be long enough to fix the problem, and if not.
00:49:21 Shouldn't people be aware of that? Shouldn't people know if a problem like this is going to take? I don't know, 500 years? Is that? Is that what? How long it's going to take?
00:49:33 Shouldn't the interested parties be made aware of these things?
00:49:37 Like, if you're the white people, I don't know, paying all the taxes because as we'll soon hear something like 98 percent, 98% of the population of this city is on welfare, 98%.
00:49:50 So that tax money's not coming from them.
00:49:54 OK, so shouldn't the people who are who are paying for all this ********?
00:50:01 And not just in terms of of the financial cost, but the social costs and everything else. Shouldn't you be made aware of? Hey, hey, we did the math and it's going to take a / a century.
00:50:17 In fact, it will get worse like the first 100 years, it gets worse.
00:50:24 Like a lot worse, this is just the beginning. It's still kind of nice in 1970.
00:50:33 It's it's about to get all kinds of worse.
00:50:38 But should you be made aware of that, shouldn't you be made aware of that? Well, here's the trade off. All right. You see that you get black.
00:50:44 People in your.
00:50:45 Neighborhood. And that's the bonus, I guess that that's like that's the pro the Pro is you get black people in your neighborhood. The con is for at least a century.
00:50:57 Everything gets worse.
00:51:00 For at least a century.
00:51:03 The city just starts falling apart. The murder rate goes to the highest in the country.
00:51:13 Yeah, but besides that, you know, I mean you you get look at look at this kid. He's cute. He's got the black Egypt, you know, pyramid.
00:51:22 Sweatshirt on.
00:51:26 Right.
00:51:27 That's worth a century of.
00:51:31 Abysmal decay and violence and corruption. Right? Like that's.
00:51:39 That's a good trade off, right? I'm sure there's very interesting ethnic food, these black people. I mean, I actually not, but.
00:51:50 Yeah, right.
00:51:54 And even then, it's like they they they it's like they kind of get they kind of get that it's not working.
00:52:01 Like even though this entire news piece is supposed to brainwash the whites at home and thinking that ohh, OK, well, we're making progress, right? Because at this point it hasn't been a century, right? It's it's only been 50 years.
00:52:17 OK, so if you're one of the white people at home watching this.
00:52:21 On TV, you're.
00:52:22 Like, well, it's only been half a century.
00:52:25 And everything's getting worse. But I think they're turning it around.
00:52:29 You see, they got the white cops and the black gang members and and sent them to summer camp, and now it's, you know, they're they're really turned things around.
00:52:41 But even this guy, it's like as he reports on it.
00:52:44 It's like he.
00:52:45 There's nothing, there's no metric that that actually says that.
00:52:53 And so he he himself like he's it's all very noncommittal and it's like well come on, it's.
00:52:58 It's gonna work, right, guys? Like it's gotta work.
Speaker 11
00:53:01 East Saint Louis, though backward in some ways, is a preview of what many cities in America will shortly confront a black majority.Devon Stack
00:53:08 Ohh yeah, believe it.00:53:12 Yes. Yes it is. Yes, it is. East Saint Louis is a a harbinger of things to come for the rest of American cities, isn't it?
Speaker 11
00:53:21 They will shortly confront a black majority. There are no dramatic solutions to sudden population or power shifts. Things could still fall apart in East Saint Louis, just like anywhere else. Which way the city go?Devon Stack
00:53:34 Ohh yeah, just like anywhere else, no, not like anywhere else.00:53:43 Other places with the black majority, but not like anywhere else. In fact, there's places right next to.
00:53:49 Right. Well, that were nice. Well, like I said, we're going to Fast forward a couple decades here in a moment.
00:53:58 But there were places right next door that were great.
Speaker 11
00:54:02 Which way the city goes is up to a lot of other people. Besides, Bill Jeremias, Clarisse Braddocks, Tom Hunter, and Bill Luckett. But some crucial changes took place in here, and several people half a year later appear to feel that they've turned a few small corners in their lives. In this room, at least a portion of one community looked itself squarely in the eye and found to its surprise.00:54:27 That the mirror didn't crack.
00:54:29 That's why it's so hard to tell who lost the Battle of East Saint Louis. This is Hughes, Rd. For CBS News.
Devon Stack
00:54:37 Well, I'll tell you, we lost.00:54:39 That that's what happened. We lost.
00:54:43 So.
00:54:44 Fast forward 20 years.
00:54:48 I mean, you would think right with the sensitivity training and rolled out, they've had 20 years to to work out the kinks.
00:54:59 That things would have, you know, kind of.
00:55:02 Turned around a little bit in East Saint Louis, or at least improved or or for God's sake, at least stayed the same.
00:55:12 Right.
00:55:17 Well, not so much.
00:55:23 A tale of two cities.
00:55:27 It's from 1993.
00:55:30 And again, the the media, they're they're they can't figure it out. They can't figure it out because there's this city.
00:55:39 East Saint Louis.
00:55:41 That by this point is I think it's like 80 to 90% black.
00:55:47 And it's a complete ******* hellhole.
00:55:50 It's a complete shithole.
00:55:52 But bordering bordering so not not not very far away. All right next door.
00:55:58 Right next door to East Saint Louis.
00:56:02 There's Belleville.
00:56:04 And Belleville is like 90% white.
00:56:09 And somehow there's no problems in Belleville.
00:56:15 Somehow that that even though right next door you have the murder capital of America.
00:56:23 A couple blocks over it's.
00:56:26 It's like leave it to Beaver.
00:56:33 But you know what? That's a problem.
00:56:37 That's a problem.
00:56:39 Because clearly, clearly this is all the result of the white people in Belleville oppressing.
00:56:48 The black people in East Saint Louis.
00:56:53 Oppressing them by policing their own streets?
00:56:57 With white cops, they have 100% white police force in Belleville.
00:57:05 That stops black people if they if they spot a a car for All Blacks driving around they you better believe you're getting ******* pulled over.
00:57:16 You're getting pulled over and cited for any anything and everything they can find, so the message is clear. Don't go, don't **** around in Belleville. You can go and murder each other in East Saint Louis all day long. Don't **** around here.
00:57:31 We'll, we'll, we'll take you down.
00:57:35 But we can't have that right? That's that's discrimination.
00:57:43 So local newspaper decides to blow the whistle on it.
00:57:49 Say, oh, the the racist police chief here in Belleville, they they pull over black people, black people that are often coming from the murder capital of America. That is right next door.
00:58:08 Not only that, there was a crime wave.
00:58:12 Because prior to doing these kinds of policing and tactics.
00:58:18 Some of this crime did begin.
00:58:20 To spill into Belleville.
00:58:24 Until the white police chief and the white police officers decide.
00:58:27 To crack down.
00:58:29 And the the residents actually erected a fence between them and and East Saint Louis.
Speaker 3
00:58:37 This is a tale of two cities side by side, one predominantly white and middle class, the other almost exclusively black and poor. It's a tail first told by a small newspaper in the.Speaker 17
00:58:48 Well.Speaker 18
00:58:48 And that's that's the whole story.Devon Stack
00:58:51 Boom. Story over.00:58:59 Because they're right ******* next door to each other.
00:59:04 It's not like one has access to magic white people, diamonds.
00:59:09 And the other one doesn't.
00:59:12 Funny how they they exist right next to each other.
00:59:17 And the big difference is one is almost exclusively black and 1:00 is pretty close to exclusively white.
00:59:29 And the difference is that dramatic.
00:59:34 But carry on. I'm I'm sure I'm missing something.
Speaker 3
00:59:37 The virtually all white community of Belleville, IL, about what happened to blacks from neighbouring East Saint Louis when they came to town. We first heard about it when the small newspaper won several major journalism awards and began losing a lot of subscribers.00:59:52 Belleville, IL is a typical Midwestern community filled with civic pride. It has annual parades, good schools, strong stable neighborhoods, and it's one of the last places in America where you can still find the original golden arches. In many ways, Belleville is a picture of white middle class contentment. They're right over there.
01:00:11 On the other side of this highway is East St. Louis, IL. It is 98% black and almost every one of its 40,000 residents is receiving welfare or some other form of public assistance.
01:00:23 It also has the highest per capita murder rate in the country, higher than New York City or Washington.
Speaker 19
01:00:29 DC it's in the top ten as far as being the most crime ridden city in the country. It's in the top ten. That's not my fault. I just don't want that filtering over into this city.Devon Stack
01:00:41 So of course the police chief with the googly eyes that that they make sure that you see the googly eyes.01:00:48 He he's doing the job that any any white person living in Belleville would want him.
01:00:53 To do.
01:00:55 He's like, hey, we've got like a nice.
01:01:00 Nice tail. Look at this.
01:01:02 We had nice town, we got, we got safe schools.
01:01:06 We've got it's it's the American dream over here.
01:01:10 But literally right next door. It's the murder capital of the United States, which probably means it's pretty close to the murder.
01:01:18 Capital of the world.
01:01:21 Like, right down the street.
01:01:24 You have the highest murder rate in America.
01:01:32 And not only that, all, like all these people, like virtually everyone in the town of 40,000 people.
01:01:41 Is on welfare.
01:01:42 Virtually everyone.
01:01:53 So he's doing the job that he should be doing, he's doing the job. Look.
01:01:56 I'd vote for that ************.
Speaker 3
01:01:59 Bob Hurst is Belleville's chief of police and like a lot of people in town, he was born and raised in East Saint Louis. But that was before white flight.01:02:06 So.
Devon Stack
01:02:10 See, he knows just like that cop that was, or both of those cops that were.01:02:14 Featured in the.
01:02:16 In the special report from.
01:02:19 The 1970s.
01:02:21 He knows.
01:02:23 In fact, he might.
01:02:24 Even be in that report somewhere we have to look for the googly eyed cop in that footage.
01:02:35 But it's it's.
01:02:37 Somehow it's Whitey's fault, right? Whitey's doing something.
Speaker 3
01:02:41 Before blacks began moving into East Saint Louis during the 60s and before whites began moving out to Belleville.Speaker 19
01:02:48 I don't want to become another E saying listen, neither does the Belleville residence.Speaker 3
01:02:54 That fear is so widespread that a few years ago, when a crime wave swept the wealthy signal hill area of Belleville, residents got together and spent their own money to build a wrought iron gate right on the edge of the city.Devon Stack
01:03:01 Right.Speaker 3
01:03:06 This is East Saint Louis, right over here on.01:03:08 The other side of this road, yes.
01:03:09 Sir, it is. Yes, if I lived in East Saint Louis and I was black, I'd look at this.
01:03:13 And I'd say.
Speaker 20
01:03:14 The message is.Speaker 3
01:03:15 Pretty clear those people don't want me over here.Speaker 19
01:03:20 I would probably feel that way.Speaker 3
01:03:22 Does that bother?01:03:23 You. No Sir.
Speaker 19
01:03:25 I didn't put it.Speaker 3
01:03:25 Up. But you approve it.Speaker 19
01:03:28 I I don't disapprove of it.Devon Stack
01:03:34 And here's the other problem that we've talked about this in previous streams, the white people are *******.01:03:41 They can't just say it, they all know it.
Speaker 6
01:03:44 They are if if.Devon Stack
01:03:45 If anyone knows it, they know it. If anyone knows it, he knows it. He knows why that that gate is there. It's to keep the ******* black people.01:03:54 Fill out.
01:03:55 So just *******.
01:03:56 Say it. Just say it. Yeah, actually.
01:04:00 East Saint Louis sucks because it's 98% black and Belleville over here doesn't suck because it's like 95%.
01:04:10 White or whatever.
01:04:12 That's why it doesn't suck. And yes, we put up a gate to keep the blacks out because with the blacks comes crime, murder, burglaries, rape.
01:04:27 That's why we built the fence. That's why we have the gate.
01:04:33 Stop ***** footing around and just say it, and that's the promise conservatives are liars.
01:04:38 There's a better example here in a moment when one of the residents looks too embarrassed to just ******* say it.
Speaker 3
01:04:46 Blacks in East Saint Louis got the message that they aren't welcome in Belleville a long time ago.Devon Stack
01:04:53 OK then it works.01:04:55 Right then it works because they're not welcome.
Speaker 3
01:05:00 But Belleville is hard to avoid. Many blacks from East Saint Louis worked there, and it's the county seat where they have to pay taxes, get marriage licenses and conduct all.Devon Stack
01:05:10 Yeah, because we all know that they're they're paying lots of taxes.01:05:13 Is and the the marriage rate, by the way, is 20%. So I I don't think that's much.
01:05:19 Of an issue either.
Speaker 3
01:05:20 Manner of public business and they have long suspected that the all white Belleville Police Department had an unwritten policy designed to discourage them from coming to town.Speaker 15
01:05:26 1000.Speaker 5
01:05:30 There's a known fact in new.01:05:31 Saint Louis don't ride in Belleville after good.
Devon Stack
01:05:37 Message received.01:05:41 So they find this, this black lady, who, according to her, like, of course there's no record. But according to her, she was pulled over once with with two of her black friends. They weren't doing nothing wrong. Well, they also didn't get arrested. They were just inconvenienced. And I'm sorry that's I'm totally willing to inflict that.
01:06:00 On innocent black people to keep my family from from being raped to death.
01:06:06 Oh, I'm sorry. We inconvenience innocent black people every once in a while that decide to drive through our town so that we don't get raped to death, OK?
Numbers Lady
01:06:16 Yeah.Speaker 16
01:06:19 1.Speaker 5
01:06:19 As you will be pulled over and especially if it's a black males that are.Speaker 9
01:06:21 In.Speaker 5
01:06:23 Involved.Speaker 3
01:06:24 Constance Massey was giving 2 male friends of hers a ride home to East Saint Louis after work when they were pulled over by a Belleville policeman.Speaker 5
01:06:31 Who said? Who is that in the car with you? I've seen beer.01:06:35 I said we don't drink, Sir. And he said what kind of drugs you got in there? And they searched us. They threw us up.
Speaker 21
01:06:42 Against.Speaker 5
01:06:42 The car patted us down, took my backseat out of my car.Speaker 3
01:06:46 But police didn't find any drugs or alcohol. Why do you think you stopped him?Speaker 5
01:06:50 Because I was black. Definitely because I was black.Devon Stack
01:06:54 Good.01:06:56 Good. More of that. More of that please.
Speaker 5
01:06:59 I had two black gentlemen in the.Speaker 3
01:07:01 Party. Did he say anything to you as to?01:07:02 Lead you to that conclusion.
Speaker 5
01:07:03 Definitely because he asked me what was I doing up in Belleville like I wasn't good enough to be.Speaker 3
01:07:09 Reporters at the Belleville News Democrat, the city's local paper, had long heard stories about police harassment of blacks, but in 1991, managing editor Greg Edwards says the paper received a tip from a former policeman that seemed to confirm all those rumors.Speaker 22
01:07:25 If you were black and came to Belleville.01:07:28 There was a good chance you were going to be stopped, questioned.
01:07:33 May be ticketed.
Devon Stack
01:07:34 For a month. So this this ******* bug.01:07:36 Eyed Psycho is the one.
01:07:37 That ruined it for everybody.
01:07:40 Edwards doesn't sound like a Jewish name, but I I couldn't find any about him.
Speaker 22
01:07:44 Minor violation may be arrested and taken to.Devon Stack
01:07:48 So.Speaker 3
01:07:49 After a 4 month investigation that involved dozens of interviews with anonymous police sources and motorists, and after going through more than 175,000 traffic tickets, the news Democrat was able to document that Belleville Police Chief Bob Hurst had organized a special four man patrol to Target and Harris black motorist.01:08:09 I'm East Saint Louis.
Speaker 22
01:08:10 Some of them had been stopped and not ticketed, simply questioned. What are you doing here? Others were handcuffed, tossed into a police car. One woman told us that she was pregnant, had handcuffs put on her and her arms put behind her.01:08:25 Back and she was shoved roughly into a police car. Others told us that there were frequent references to them to to them when they were stopped, as that sort of language.
Speaker 3
01:08:39 The paper's big break came when reporter Carolyn Tuft stumbled upon an important piece of information. Belleville Police Department writes the drivers race on the top of every ticket it issues, so she was able to segregate all the tickets written to blacks, and when she compared that information to the four men assigned to the unit. This is what she discovered.Speaker 21
01:08:59 75% of all tickets written by these four men were to blacks.01:09:04 And we had a 7.
Devon Stack
01:09:04 Good.01:09:06 You live next to the murder capital of the world.
01:09:11 See, these are the people that are undermining the safety of other whites.
01:09:17 Although I suspect she's.
01:09:18 A fellow white the other guy, I don't know.
Speaker 21
01:09:24 7% population of blacks in Belleville, so the disparity there is is striking, if not alarming.Speaker 3
01:09:31 They were going out looking for.Speaker 21
01:09:33 Blacks, yes, they were.Speaker 3
01:09:34 No other way to interpret that information.Speaker 21
01:09:37 I don't think.Speaker 3
01:09:38 So Tuff says that blacks were cited mostly for non moving violations like driving with an expired license or without insurance.01:09:46 Things that you wouldn't be able to detect unless you'd actually stopped someone and pulled.
Speaker 21
01:09:50 Them over right? Such as?Speaker 3
01:09:51 And from police sources, she learned something else.Speaker 21
01:09:53 For every person that was pulled over and ticketed, this unit pulled a handful over and didn't ticket them. The idea was to let the black people know that they weren't welcoming them.Devon Stack
01:10:09 Good, because they weren't.01:10:12 Ah, anyway.
Speaker 3
01:10:15 I have to tell you, Chief, I was a black male.01:10:20 I think I would consider it harassment if all I was doing was driving through a white neighborhood in Belleville when I got stopped by the police every time I went through.
Speaker 19
01:10:29 Well, that's, that's your opinion and your entitled to your opinion. But if you lived in that area, you would want the Police Department, the Sheriff's Office and the state police to be doing something about it. And that's what we did.Speaker 3
01:10:41 And the people of Belleville seemed glad he did. Chief Hurst has never been more popular.Speaker 16
01:10:46 He keeps the crime out. I don't know why the news media is.01:10:48 Always on to him about the blacks.
Speaker 23
01:10:50 If it weren't for Robert Hurst and we would have all the crime and and we might as well just move.Speaker 24
01:10:54 Down the hill.Speaker 3
01:10:56 The Saint Louis.Speaker 15
01:10:57 Right.Speaker 16
01:10:57 Right. I I agree. I think that East Saint Louis has a definite problem and we don't want it here.Speaker 3
01:11:05 What are you talking about when you say you want to keep these Saint Louis out or keep it out? Are you saying what you want to keep out as?Speaker 16
01:11:13 But.Speaker 12
01:11:13 No, we're going.Devon Stack
01:11:14 Yes, yes. Stop lying. You, you weak, limp wristed fagots. This is what I'm talking about. This is. This is little ******* ***** game that white people been playing that has got you in this situation now because you weren't able to just be honest and say yes, you actually. Yes. I don't know. Call me crazy, but every time there's a city that becomes like.01:11:36 90%.
01:11:36 In black, it becomes the murder capital of the area. Sometimes the country and there's example after example after example of this. In fact there's not an example of the opposite. I don't know. It would be weird that they not have at least one example of black people becoming the majority of a city and the the the.
01:11:56 City may be getting a little better. That's never happened. How come that's never happened? I don't know. It seems a little crazy to me. It kind of makes me me recognize it. Pattern. And Speaking of patterns, let's take a look at crime statistics nation.
01:12:11 13 does 50I mean look, there's so much evidence that backs up the obvious here that yes it the the problem is black people. The problem is black people creating the crime and so yes, you don't want the black people in your neighborhood. So just ******* say it just ******* say it. Stop acting like that. That's not what.
01:12:31 Look, he knows it. He knows it.
01:12:36 He knows it.
01:12:44 And because you can't say it.
Speaker 8
01:12:48 You, you, you, you.Devon Stack
01:12:49 Create all kinds of problems that you can't solve because you can't say it.01:13:01 Because now none of the solutions can involve separating you from the black people, right? Cause that you you can't say you're not willing to say.
01:13:08 That that's the problem.
01:13:11 So that can't be the solution, right? Because it's not the problem. The problem is going to be something else.
01:13:17 Something else that costs millions and billions and trillions of dollars over a century?
01:13:26 Sensitivity training. All kinds of you know, federal grant money and and and who knows what the ****, right? But it can't it it can never be the the obvious thing that everyone knows that it what it is.
01:13:42 Because you're too much of A ******.
Speaker 12
01:13:45 Want to keep the crime rate up? The crime problems? The drug problems, the murders, the burglaries, the car thefts, that's what we don't want involved.Devon Stack
01:13:55 Oh, so like all the problems of the black people, no, we we don't want to keep the black people out of here. We just want to keep everything that black people are doing out of here.01:14:08 There's difference. It's it's it's different.
Speaker 3
01:14:13 What they were saying was you may think we've got a problem. We don't think we've.Speaker 12
01:14:13 ******* *****.Speaker 3
01:14:17 Got a problem.Speaker 22
01:14:18 Some of them said exactly that.Speaker 3
01:14:20 And some of them said a lot more. The Newsroom was flooded with angry calls and threats. Local businesses pulled their ads, and more than 1000 readers cancelled their subscriptions. A huge number for such a small paper.Numbers Lady
01:14:27 Yeah.Speaker 3
01:14:34 But they kept on digging.Speaker 17
01:14:35 They're there to write stories, make news, and to hell with what happens to the community writers.Speaker 3
01:14:40 Belleville Mayor Richard Brauer really hated the article about city hiring practices in its entire history, 175 years Belleville has never had a black employee.01:14:52 Didn't that strike you astray?
Devon Stack
01:14:54 This place sounds amazing.01:14:59 It sounds amazing and you know, it's funny.
01:15:03 They they get, they get forced to hire black people thanks to these the ******* media here and threaten federal lawsuits.
01:15:14 What we'll do when we when we hit the Fast forward button again on on East Saint Louis is we'll see what happens when your city is run by black people.
01:15:24 Because, again, that city is not at the time that they made this, it was 98% black already. So it's that's everyone running the city too.
01:15:35 That means that the the the mayor of East Saint Louis is black. You know, the the City Council, they're all black. They're all black.
01:15:44 And right next door in Belleville, where everything seems like a ******* paradise.
01:15:51 They've never had a black employee.
01:15:54 Until they get forced to by the the upping media of the federal government.
Speaker 3
01:15:58 Strange. You've been mayor here since 1979. No black faces in City Hall? No, you never noticed it.Speaker 17
01:16:01 That's right.01:16:05 No, I never noticed it exactly right we didn't.
Speaker 3
01:16:07 You didn't know you needed a black employee.01:16:10 Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 17
01:16:11 We needed a black employee. No, we we don't. We didn't have any quota systems here or anything like that, no.01:16:18 What do you mean? We we didn't, we didn't.
Speaker 3
01:16:18 Floater system you.01:16:19 Have one.
01:16:21 Since the news Democrat ran that story, the city of Belleville finally hired its first black employee, a sanitation worker.
Devon Stack
01:16:29 So they find they hire a.01:16:32 And black guy to be the one of the trash men.
Speaker 3
01:16:40 The city's decision to finally hire a black employee was not exactly voluntary. It was done under the threat of legal action by the Illinois State Department of Human Rights. Bellville settled out of court, agreeing to hire an affirmative action officer and to send the entire Belleville Police Department.01:16:58 The racial sensitivity training, including Chief Hurst.
Numbers Lady
01:17:01 Yeah.Devon Stack
01:17:02 Ohh, good. More sensitivity training and affirmative action officer. Start hiring black people for your city.01:17:14 Say goodbye Belleville.
01:17:18 Say goodbye to your beautiful little paradise.
01:17:23 Oh, it's, you know, that's all it takes.
01:17:27 That's all it takes, one little crack.
01:17:30 One little one little sensitivity training session 11, little diversity officer, right?
01:17:40 And it's all downhill from there.
Speaker 3
01:17:45 Although some might say it doesn't seem to have done much good.Speaker 19
01:17:49 In my own heart and mind, I know I've done what's right for the people of the city of Belleville, and if I had it to do over again, I would do it again tomorrow, the same way, Steve, I guarantee you.Devon Stack
01:18:02 Yeah, it was too late and now beautiful. Belleville is above the national average and violent crime.01:18:12 And it is rapidly becoming more black. So congratulations. Congratulations, Belleville.
01:18:23 The cancer is spreading.
01:18:28 So we're going to jump back on our DeLorean.
01:18:32 Go go. Uh, what is it, 88 point something? Whatever the ****. Who cares? We're gonna. We're gonna go on our time machine.
01:18:41 And in another 20 year increment since was 1993.
01:18:46 Where there are 2011.
01:18:49 2011 I found a news report.
01:18:53 About some of the local government.
01:18:57 In East Saint Louis.
01:19:00 The people that are, I mean.
01:19:01 We.
01:19:01 Just we just met the police chief in in Belleville.
01:19:08 And we understand his, or at least prior to the the meddling, the meddling of.
01:19:15 Subversive forces.
01:19:18 His tactics and how he kept his community safe, right?
01:19:23 What? Let's see what's going on and right next door.
01:19:26 And East Saint Louis.
01:19:31 This is their police chief.
Speaker
01:19:34 Say.Speaker 20
01:19:34 Four years ago, then East Saint Louis Police Chief Michael Baxton showed us how his officers were reducing crime in the city by cracking down on hotspots where they often found illegal drugs, piles of cash and loaded guns. The key is.Speaker 19
01:19:36 Yeah.Speaker 15
01:19:49 Of course.Speaker 11
01:19:51 If the kids are visibility deterrent contract with the public, it sounded.Speaker 20
01:19:56 Good. But months later, our investigation revealed many reasons why the department lacked credibility in the communities it served. Our review of court documents showed that one out of every four East Saint Louis.01:20:10 Officers had criminal arrest records. Four were convicted of battery.
01:20:16 Assault. Even Chief Baxton had a mug shot. Chief, I'm asking you if.
Speaker 11
01:20:20 And that's all I have.Speaker 20
01:20:20 You can explain.01:20:21 Why you are in this mug shot? The States Attorney at the time, Bob Hada, told me that he had identified 15 current and former East Saint Louis police officers who lacked the credibility needed to be an essential witness in criminal cases.
Speaker 11
01:20:22 I can just blame it.Speaker 20
01:20:36 In each case, he told East Saint Louis officials in writing about the officers in Quo.01:20:43 Most of them were still in the police force actively investigating criminal cases. We were there when a murder suspect was freed because Hada believed the cop who failed to videotape his alleged confession lacked the credibility needed to be a key witness in the case.
Speaker 10
01:21:01 We're going to make sure that everybody.Devon Stack
01:21:04 So the.01:21:07 Police chief is a criminal. 25% of the cops are criminals. They're they're forgetting to hit the record button when they're getting confessions and because their their credibility, even their cops, their criminal record is so bad they can't testify in court and be believed. So murder.
01:21:27 Suspects who've confessed. In other words, murderers.
01:21:30 Are just being let loose back onto the streets because you know that's that's how they police things. When when white people aren't aren't running the.
01:21:39 No, this is what happens when you reach full diversity.
01:21:43 This is where Belleville's headed headed.
01:21:48 That there are peak diversity over here in East Saint Louis.
01:21:55 You can ***** and moan about the white cops pulling over. I was this guy got pulled over driving while black.
01:22:04 I don't care. Don't care. Want. I want more of that.
01:22:13 Meanwhile, in East Saint Louis.
01:22:18 The criminals are the ones running the city.
Speaker 10
01:22:21 Going to make sure that everybody we hire has a clean record.Speaker 20
01:22:25 Back then, Anthony Tarvin was the chair of the East Saint Louis Police and Fire board. Our investigation also revealed that Tarvin had been accused of aggravated assault, assault and battery in six different incidents during the previous two decades. Bill agents.01:22:42 Raided the home of then Mayor Randy McCallum.
Devon Stack
01:22:44 Who? So the the mayor gets raided by the feds.01:22:50 The police chief gets raided by the feds.
01:22:54 I mean the the whole town is is. It's not just the the black, you know, rank and file blacks that live there, the blacks that run the city are all under federal indictment. This is this is in again this is 2011.
01:23:10 The the timeline keeps going, but 2011 half the the city is getting arrested for corruption.
01:23:20 They all have ******* records.
Speaker 20
01:23:22 Agents raided the home of then Mayor Randy McCallum, who eventually pleaded guilty to stealing $1000 from the village and attempting to deal crack cocaine.01:23:32 Just a few months after we confirmed Chief Baxton's, 30 year old felony convictions, he was caught in a federal sting operation after stealing what he thought was police evidence. A few months after what was then a still secret sting, East Saint Louis, we hired Baxton as police chief.
01:23:53 Seven weeks later, Baxton pleaded guilty to theft and lying to federal agents. Do you?
Devon Stack
01:24:01 So the the remember these are the descendants of the innocent black people that shot 2 cops and started a race riot back in 1917. These are the descendants of those people.01:24:18 So all of a sudden the not only is the, I mean the official story of of 1917, all white people for no reason at all, despite the cop murder, just rose up and, you know, killed black people.
01:24:34 For no reason, right?
01:24:35 It becomes increasingly less believable.
01:24:39 When you see what happens when?
01:24:42 These are the kinds of people that actually run, run the town, run it right into the ******* ground.
01:24:49 So the mayor is under federal indictment, the police chiefs under federal indictment.
Speaker 20
01:24:54 You feel like you made a bad decision when you hired Michael Baxton? No, we interviewed East Saint Louis Mayor Alvin Parks the day after Baxton pleaded guilty.01:25:03 You have to know how this looks on the city of East Saint Louis.
01:25:06 You hire a chief who stays here for seven weeks and then he and then he pleads guilty to two felony counts for misconduct and theft, lying to federal agents while he's the police chief of one community, and he lied to them while he was the police chief of your community.
Speaker 25
01:25:10 What do you want me to do, Craig?Devon Stack
01:25:26 Oh, what? What am I supposed to do?01:25:29 What do you want?
01:25:30 From me.
01:25:32 All right, we're going to get back into The Time Machine.
01:25:36 Surely things.
01:25:38 Now it will be over a century. We're going to go to.
01:25:42 The two thousand 20s.
01:25:46 Surely things will have gotten better, right?
01:25:51 Surely now that you know all this corruption is being rooted out by the FBI.
01:25:59 They got federal grants coming at them like like no one's business, the evil white racists in the in neighboring Belleville, they're not allowed to pull over black people for no reason to protect their citizens.
01:26:13 In fact, a lot of black people are now moving to Belleville because Belleville starting to get ****** and white people are leaving.
01:26:18 There now too.
01:26:21 Surely it's gotten a little bit better, right?
Speaker 26
01:26:25 Tonight, police are investigating a deadly shooting inside a bank in East Saint Louis. Fox News Jeff Bernthal joining us now live from the first bank that is located near East Saint Louis City Hall.Speaker 13

01:27:29 It's the 5th murder in.01:27:31 Five days East, Saint Louis officials say they were doing OK before this.
01:27:36 It is when the.
01:27:37 Now all that's changed.
Speaker 27
01:27:38 3 year old girl is rushed to the hospital with serious injuries after someone shot.01:27:43 Her in the head.
Speaker 29
01:27:44 The shooting happened around 9:00.Speaker 18

01:27:47 Public housing complex in East Saint Louis.Speaker 30
01:27:49 Eight children who lost their mother to violence. Her shooting death is under investigation now by the Illinois State Police.Speaker 12
01:27:57 On NEWS 11 at four, we are following a developing story out of East Saint Louis this afternoon on a deadly double shooting.Neil Young
01:28:03 There was a deadly shooting in East St.Speaker 27
01:28:03 Day.01:28:05 Louis, that happened early this.
01:28:06 Morning someone killed a woman at the Roosevelt Homes Housing complex.
Speaker 32
01:28:10 And an investigation is underway after an auto parts store worker was murdered in East Saint Louis.Speaker 31
01:28:17 East Saint Louis police say they got a call about a shooting at around 9:20 Friday morning.Speaker 27
01:28:21 Morning and around 3:45 this morning, a car plowed into the Roosevelt Homes Public Housing project on N 44th St. in East Saint Louis. Everyone in the car ran away. The person inside one apartment was shaken up, but OK. Holice found a gun.01:28:36 Inside of the car.
Devon Stack
01:28:38 Ohh.01:28:39 So it's.
01:28:42 It's worse.
01:28:51 He's going to sit here and enjoy this.
01:28:55 Mozarts requiem.
01:29:01 I'll think about black people for a minute.
Speaker 4
01:29:24 OK.Devon Stack
01:29:28 So what's the what's the big solution?01:29:31 What's the big solution? They they got a new mayor, right? The other guy got busted by the feds. They had new mayor in town. He's he's. I'm sure he's trying to crack down on the crime. So the mayor's solution to one of the the more recent shootings, which ended up with a stray bullet going into City Hall.
01:29:52 Was to close down the gas station.
01:29:57 Where the shooting happened?
01:30:00 Because somehow.
01:30:01 It's their fault.
01:30:02 For having shootings at the gas station, it's not the black people going to the gas station shooting people.
01:30:11 It's the gas stations fault, so he's just going to shut down. That's that's what East Saint Louis needs. Right? Is more shuttered businesses.
Speaker 26
01:30:20 Follow the laws or you'll be forced to close. That's a strong message being sent tonight at East Saint Louis to local businesses.Speaker 33
01:30:26 But one owner says it's not just that simple. He was forced to close after a shooting at this gas station sent a bullet through the nearby City Hall window. If you remember, we showed you this video earlier this week when this was. Ashley Lincoln has his side as well as what the mayor is saying about this, Ashley.Speaker 31
01:30:44 Will Corey and Sam, the owner of this gas station, tells me that this is harassment. He placed these signs up earlier today, thanking the mayor for shutting down his business while we went across the street and spoke with the mayor, who tells us that they're just taking a zero tolerance stand when it comes to addressing.01:31:03 Violence in this area.
Devon Stack
01:31:06 There 0 tolerance for the business that the.01:31:12 Ah, anyway.
01:31:16 So yeah, they I guess they're getting tough on crime there by shutting down the businesses where the crime happened somehow.
01:31:26 There's also a lot of embezzlement going on. They're still hiring criminals.
01:31:32 Here's another news report from just like I believe like a year ago.
Speaker 32
01:31:37 Saint Louis's financial situation is so dire they announced this week they're laying off first responders.Speaker 13
01:31:44 But that didn't stop them from 1 questionable hire of a former politician costing you the taxpayers more than $70,000.01:31:53 You paid for an investigator. Elliot Davis is here now and tells us how this deal gets even worse. Elliot.
Speaker 28
01:31:59 Indeed, Vic, it certainly does get worse. The person they hired is an ex Councilwoman and they hired her to a top job for more than 70,000 bucks. Even though she's going on trial for a felony, as you'll see.Devon Stack
01:32:13 So a former city Councilwoman who's being investigated or or actually being tried for a a felony who had to step down, they hired her like this. Is this is what happens when they run.01:32:28 Bodies.
01:32:29 This is what happens when when it's it's a third world country.
01:32:34 It's a third world country.
01:32:37 So the mayor hires her for some made-up job, making 70 grand a year. They can't even afford to have the traffic lights working, and they're late. They've shut down entire fire departments and they're laying off ambulance workers and and.
01:32:57 Cops.
01:32:59 But they're they're hiring back, felony committing.
01:33:05 City Council women for made-up jobs with the money.
01:33:09 They don't have.
Speaker 28
01:33:10 Had a hard time getting answers. June Hamilton Dean was hard to be the head of the East Saint Louis Development Agency and over the $12 million TIF fund. This even though the former East Saint Louis Councilwoman is set to go on trial for felony forgery.01:33:25 A crime prosecutor say happened when she worked for the East Saint Louis Township.
01:33:30 I couldn't catch up with Hamilton Dean.
01:33:32 But I did catch the Mayor, Robert Easton, the city's new mayor, Eastern, signed off on the deal. But it's not something he's anxious to talk about. Now the city is $5,000,000 in the hole, no trouble talking about that. It's so bad. The city had to layoff firefighters and close the Firehouse.
01:33:51 What is the city's financial situation?
01:33:54 Is pretty dire right now.
Speaker 10
01:33:55 Yes, it's still that's been consistently dire.Speaker 28
01:33:58 But no answer. When the questioning rolled around to hiring.01:34:01 Hamilton.
01:34:02 Mayor, why did you guys hire a person who's on trial for felony violation to be head of CDA for $73,000 a year?
Speaker 10
01:34:11 I already answered that question. I won't answer that.01:34:13 Question again.
Speaker 28
01:34:14 The mayor says he held a news conference several months back, but according to published reports that news conference didn't last long and it didn't take questions, he essentially said he'd keep tabs on the legal proceedings. I wanted a lot more answers than that, and so do.Devon Stack
01:34:28 Citizens, there's no way anybody in this city can make $73,000.01:34:34 Yeah, if you got a criminal case pending, you should not be able.
01:34:38 To get in government at all.
Speaker 10
01:34:41 Point blank, but right now I'm telling you that if you want to continue this interview now move to the next question or.01:34:48 The interview is over.
Devon Stack
01:34:51 So that's the mayor. And there's all kinds of corruption going on.01:35:00 There's there's one city Councilwoman that decided to try to blow the whistle on on.
01:35:08 On the graft. Basically the City Council was giving these city improvement jobs that aren't getting done to their friends. So basically, there's embezzling the money. That's what what little money that they have in that.
Speaker 23
01:35:23 City in East Saint Louis. Whistleblower who questioned spending by the.01:35:27 East Saint Louis Housing Authority has been removed from its board chante Mueller says her removal is retribution. She says her husband, who's been with the east Saint Louis Police Department for 32 years, has also been terminated. City officials say they cannot comment on personnel.
01:35:44 Matters, Mueller alleged the former interim director steered contracts to relatives, resulting in unnecessary and pricey up charges.
Devon Stack
01:35:53 Yeah, let's take a look at some of these. So here's The funny thing. Because this, well, funny in a way, right, because 98% of the residents of East Saint Louis are on welfare. Pretty much everyone in East Saint Louis lives.01:36:13 And free housing.
01:36:15 And so these contracts that they're talking about are usually related to the free housing, the maintenance of the free housing.
01:36:27 And because again, so many of the residents live like like their landlord, I guess is the the the city government.
01:36:36 They have an entire segment on this new channel called you paid for it. Well, the the black people didn't pay for it. I guess it's addressed to the white people watching the news. It's called.
01:36:48 You paid for.
01:36:48 It and and and all it is.
01:36:52 There's so many episodes of this.
01:36:54 Is the way they frame us is asinine, but they highlight the horrible conditions of this free housing that almost all the black people in that city, which is to say almost all the people in that city are are living in, and they make it sound like, oh, look at the little guy.
01:37:16 And they they're being abused by their slumlord landlord. It's like, no, this is free housing.
01:37:22 It's it's free housing and they're complaining about stuff like, oh, there's there's mice, there's mice everywhere, and then they show, like, this disgustingly dirty apartment that's free and you're like, well, ****, yeah, there's mice everywhere. It's cause your place is a ******* mess. Clean, clean it up. And they're. But they're it's so weird that they're. They're not saying like.
01:37:43 Ohh why? Why are all these people living in free housing? They're they're mad that the free housing isn't good enough.
01:37:51 So here's here's one episode.
01:37:54 Oh, this is the one that they're complaining that no one's no one's cutting the lawn for them.
Speaker 24
01:37:58 Tall grass and weeds fill this east Saint Louis housing complex. In some spots, landscaping has grown almost as high as two feet. It's evident this is not the most beautiful curbside, but Aaron Sanders, a resident, says the inside is no better.Speaker 15
01:38:14 Anything the mold, the mildew, the bug.01:38:16 Books the grass just it's been so much. I don't even know where to begin.
Speaker 24
01:38:22 Sanders has lived in this apartment complex since 2015. The mother of a four year old says she's complained on numerous occasions and the maintenance team has come out.Speaker 15
01:38:31 When they do come, fix it. As you can see the results of what they fake fix nothing.Speaker 24
01:38:39 The mother complaints come almost a year after HUD secretary Ben Carson came to East Saint Louis to announce that his office will be returning control back to local officials.Devon Stack
01:38:48 Yeah. Good job, Ben Carson. Let's give it back to these these guys.01:38:56 So yeah, they're complaining like, oh, they're they're not. They're not. They're not fixing up my free housing well enough.
01:39:04 Here's another episode.
Speaker 28
01:39:06 And then you pay for community groups in the metro East. They come together to bless what they call a crisis in public housing. This time, they focus on conditions at an East Saint Louis senior citizens building. Tonight, I'll show you the awful conditions and tonight's you paid for.01:39:21 It.
01:39:22 Bill McClure has lived in this troubled senior citizens building.
01:39:26 Run by the East Saint Louis Housing Authority for years, she figures she deserves more than she's getting. With all that her family has given the nation.
Devon Stack
01:39:35 Ah yes, she deserves more because her brothers were in the military. Like, that's her excuse. And then she's afraid of like, the stove catching the wall on fire. So she put aluminum foil on the wall or something. That's that's for real.Speaker 28
01:39:48 Right next to the wall, Velma put up aluminum foil to try to reduce the chances of a fire, and there are major traps for insects all over her kitchen. At least six of them that I saw have deal with the bug in mice infestation. And one of these traps.Devon Stack
01:40:00 Yeah. Like how ******* gross your kitchen is.Speaker 6
01:40:04 Traps to catch. You catch the roaches or the rats. Whatever may crawl over there. I got traps.01:40:11 But they're in here. They're in the walls here.
Speaker 28
01:40:14 What's wrong in?Speaker 6
01:40:15 Here you see my wall.01:40:19 And they they didn't put that up there good, Sir, and they just fell them down. You see this faucet? You can tell. You know, it's old, it's crushed and everything.
Speaker 28
01:40:27 Oh, even when you look up, probably.Devon Stack
01:40:28 My free housing sucks, so there's one.Speaker 25
01:40:30 It's.Devon Stack
01:40:33 And and The thing is, the reason why it doesn't get fixed is that the people in charge of it are funneling the money to their their friends instead of paying for for anything to get fixed.Speaker 32
01:40:43 Call for help from a desperate Housing Authority tenant in East Saint Louis with an unusual problem. Fox News Elliot Davis answers her call for a problem she's been trying to get officials to solve for years. Here is tonight's you paid for it.Speaker 28
01:40:57 It's a big headache for East Saint Louis Housing Authority tenant Victoria Moore. She tries her best to hide it, but there's no getting around it. A hole in her bathroom, slash laundry room floor.01:41:08 Where you can see through to the basement.
Speaker 34
01:41:10 It's kind of dangerous and creepy.Speaker 28
01:41:12 Why do you say it's dangerous?Speaker 34
01:41:14 Because you can step in and actually and may break your ankle or something.Speaker 28
01:41:18 How long you been like?01:41:19 This.
Speaker 34
01:41:19 It's been like this probably since about 2016 17.Speaker 28
01:41:25 Victoria says the home has been getting worse and that worries her. She fears accidentally putting her full weight on this hole.Devon Stack
01:41:32 Ohh no, there's a hole on the floor and if you're free ******* housing.01:41:38 Let's see what?
Speaker 32
01:41:38 New AT9A Metro's mother, living in horrible conditions with her two children and an apartment paid for by taxpayers. She called us for help dealing with an apartment overrun by mice. Now we have to warn you, this video is graphic. Here is Elliot Davis with tonight's you paid for it.Speaker 28
01:42:00 I headed to John Deshields housing project in East Saint Louis. After getting the call from Raven Sanders, a mother of two with a huge problem, taxpayers paid for her to stay here, but unfortunately, she shares the unit with mice running rampant. Here's video she took of mice in the cupboard with her food.01:42:17 Is that like mouse droppings or something?
Speaker 15
01:42:19 Yeah, it is. And I'll come in here and I'll catch them and I'll open it and.Speaker 28
01:42:22 They'll be running through this. There's more video with several mice in the cupboard, but they're not just here, they're.Devon Stack
01:42:23 Yeah. How about how about there's have a kitchen that's not just ******* disgusting. How about that? That'd be nice. That's a nice start anyway. So that's today.01:42:35 So apparently.
01:42:38 Over a century.
01:42:41 Over a century later.
01:42:45 The white people who responded negatively to the arrival of the black people over a century later, where are we at?
01:42:55 Well over a century later.
01:42:59 All of the buildings that were built by the white people are either crumbled to dust or crumbling to dust.
01:43:07 Just skeletons.
01:43:10 Carcasses, reminders of what that city could have been.
01:43:16 The white people themselves are gone.
01:43:20 They've been gone since the late 60s, early 70s.
01:43:27 The blacks run the government.
01:43:32 They, their mayors, are.
01:43:36 Consistently.
01:43:38 Arrested, or at least investigated by federal authorities, for embezzlement.
01:43:46 Their police force is is basically run by criminals.
01:43:52 They've consistently been the murder capital of the United States for decades.
01:44:00 To give you an idea, it's something like three times more dangerous than like the worst part of Baltimore.
01:44:08 Another chocolate city.
01:44:16 So essentially later looking back.
01:44:23 At the east.
01:44:24 Saint Louis massacre.
01:44:28 And the story that they feed you.
01:44:33 About how white people were driving through the black part of town and doing drive by shootings in 1917.
01:44:40 By the way.
01:44:41 We're like in a model ******* T.
01:44:45 During drive by shootings into the black neighborhoods for no reason. And there's even though there's there's zero evidence of this ever happening.
01:44:56 There's zero casualties recorded.
01:44:59 I went to the newspapers looking for.
01:45:02 An article that would say.
01:45:05 You know, hey.
01:45:06 Yeah, white people did a drive by.
01:45:08 And killed, you know.
01:45:09 Seamus Seamus ****** not right. Yeah, whoever, right?
01:45:15 Tyrone Mcnee, bro.
01:45:17 But not doesn't exist.
01:45:22 Cops roll into that part of town.
01:45:26 Get two of them get murdered by the blacks.
01:45:31 Why people finally get fed up they've had.
01:45:33 Enough.
01:45:34 They lash out.
01:45:38 Whites and blacks are killed in the riots.
01:45:43 Numbers are all over the place. Hard to know how many.
01:45:47 The trials that took place afterwards.
01:45:52 Several blacks were.
01:45:56 Convicted of murder?
01:45:58 Some whites were convicted of inciting riots and lesser offenses.
01:46:06 The blacks keep coming, the whites finally.
01:46:09 Say **** it, they leave.
01:46:16 And now, over 100 years later.
01:46:19 This is what we got.
01:46:22 We got black people complaining that they're free housing is is disgusting and full of rodents.
01:46:32 Well, the local government embezzles whatever.
01:46:36 Federal money is is being funneled into that ******* hellhole.
01:46:47 And people are getting murdered.
01:46:50 Like it's a literal war zone.
01:46:57 And all because white people couldn't just say the truth. They couldn't just say hey.
01:47:04 If black people move here, it's going to turn it to ****.
01:47:19 And I hope Europeans see this and they realize.
01:47:25 You can't be *******. You can't say. Oh, it's it's about their culture. Their culture is incompatible.
01:47:32 No, they're they're biology is incompatible.
01:47:39 Unless of course, you're willing to wait a century to find out, right?
01:47:44 Maybe you maybe you wanna wait around for 100 years.
01:47:50 Maybe you want to damn your grandchildren to 100 years of this.
01:47:57 For the tiny chance that maybe you're wrong.
01:48:03 Maybe you're wrong to have, and maybe maybe in 102 hundred maybe.
01:48:06 In 500 years.
01:48:11 Maybe in 1000?
01:48:12 Years East Saint Louis will be nice.
01:48:18 And then it all have been worth it.
01:48:30 All have been worth it, right?
01:48:34 Is it 1000 years?
01:48:45 In 1000 years, this won't look like.
01:48:47 A hellhole anymore.
01:48:51 Maybe.
01:48:54 Depends on if black people still live there.
01:49:03 And that, ladies and gentlemen.
01:49:07 Is East Saint Louis.
01:49:14 In fact, this is what we're looking at now. This is East Saint Louis.
01:49:19 They can't even get there. They can't keep their traffic lights running.
01:49:24 Some of the stop signs are, like literally like on the ground because because I guess some black people like knocked the the pull down. People don't even stop for the stop signs because they're afraid of might. What might happen if they do?
01:49:44 Tell him.
01:49:49 This is.
01:49:51 It's shocking to know that this is like a a place in America, isn't it?
01:50:00 Isn't that weird knowing that this this city exists?
01:50:04 In America.
01:50:10 Anyway.
01:50:12 Let's take a look at.
01:50:15 Hyper chance.
01:50:17 Shall we?
01:50:23 Chosen Jawa says Churro 2024. Well, he's he's out and about outside, he hasn't popped in yet.
01:50:32 He was in very recently though.
01:50:35 He might pop in and say hello.

01:51:05 Episode. So there you guys go. There's a link to.
01:51:10 A video from 2021 I it looks like, at least according to the.
01:51:16 The title there.
01:51:19 Then Zaza, Metasploit says. Well, **** the link didn't work for me, so it may in fact be gay. I don't know. Anyhow, everyone just go to his content tab and look for Sky King Edition. You guys know how to look up videos. Don't forget to tip your waitress, don't drink and drive. I'm going to bed. Thanks for posting early.
01:51:40 Well, appreciate that Zazi make taskbar.
01:51:43 Chosen jawan.
01:51:48 No, it did not work. There it goes.
01:51:55 Chosen Jawas says I had a conversation with a devout Republican this week who was so upset by Harris's alleged anti-Semitism.
01:52:05 And by choosing walls over Shapiro.
01:52:08 I said you realize Harris is Harris is married to a Jew, right? He said, yeah, but she's also married to.
01:52:16 A white man.
01:52:17 Net cognitive dissonance at its finest won't even understand what they what they would mean. Like she's not married to a white man, she's married to a Jew.
01:52:25 So I yeah. Yeah, that's.
01:52:31 Well, just be being upset by that. You know that? That's that's basically the the boomer that listens to local talk radio. If you're upset by the fact that Harris you you think Harris is antisemitic, who ******* cares? If I wish he was violent. Biggs, production says.
01:52:51 Hi Devin, I made a 45 second bit overlaying your voice to this video called Killer Bees. You might also enjoy another short one I did raging this and it meets Animal Farm. Enjoy and thanks for all your awesome content.
01:53:07 Well, I'm, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm going to have to.
01:53:11 Yes, you are gay.
Speaker 4
01:53:13 Whoa.Devon Stack
01:53:32 You give me two links 2.01:53:36 But I'll take a look at them.
01:53:39 Just not right now.
01:53:42 I will put them in my.
01:53:45 My notepad. Where did my notepad thing go? Oh that's right.
01:53:50 I had a computer crash earlier today and it closed all my ****.
Speaker 11
01:53:56 Here we go.Speaker 16
01:54:01 There we go.Devon Stack
01:54:05 I'll take a look at those after.01:54:06 The show.
01:54:09 All right.
01:54:12 Somewhere over the rainbow.
01:54:25 Hello Devin, you have said previously in the past that marriageable white women are rare. I agree. Can a white man be pro white if he marries 1/2 white, half black woman? This woman is traditional acts, white is pro, white is not a feminist, keeps the house, and is keen on the JQ.
01:54:45 Well, and she's also not white, so let's look. I'm not going to tell.
01:54:50 You what to do but.
01:54:52 Umm.
01:54:55 If you want white kids, you kind of have to.
01:54:59 You know.
01:55:01 Marry a white chick. That's. That's how that works, you know.
01:55:06 So I'm, you know, again, I'm not. I'm not going to tell you what to do. I don't. I'm. I'm not going to **** ** anyone's life but tell them what to do in their personal life. I'm just saying. If.
01:55:17 If that's what's important to you, to have white children, there's there's really only one way to do that.
01:55:24 UM.
01:55:26 So that's all I'm saying and again.
01:55:32 I don't know know her and or your situation and I'm.
01:55:36 Not.
01:55:38 You know that's that's that's for you to. That's for you to to decide.
01:55:44 And.
01:55:47 Yeah, I'm all I can tell you is is what I would take into account and what I would take into account is.
01:55:55 His genetics. So.
01:55:58 But again, I have no idea who this person is or what your situation is. I just. Me personally, I would not do that if that's what you're asking.
01:56:07 Watch the collapse as Devin, you are the man. Thanks for the awesome work as always. GOAT streamer. And I think the day of the rope would make an epic movie if it were adapted to big screen. But I guess we'll have to wait at least until after book two drops for that Gyno roofing Waffen.
01:56:27 Gyno ruffin. I don't know. What is that? Or Gino ruffin.
Numbers Lady
01:56:30 Yeah.Devon Stack
01:56:32 I don't know what that I don't know. That last part means, but I appreciate that. And yes, it would be an awesome movie.01:56:38 It would be.
01:56:40 A movie that it's it's gonna have to be a movie that remains in your imagination though because you know.
01:56:49 The the the the chances of anyone funding that is pretty close to 0.
Speaker 9
01:56:55 Uh.Devon Stack
01:56:55 LGLY says the one time I ever went to Saint Louis, it was about 2010. We booked a cheap hotel last minute on the on the east side of town. After catching a baseball game. After riding the metro and catching a bus, we'd have a one mile or we'd have one mile.01:57:14 To walk in the dark, the black bus driver lady saw one white boy about to meet their end.
01:57:22 Wait, what?
01:57:23 After riding the metro and catching a bus, we we'd have a one mile walk in the dark. The black bus driver Lady saw one white boy saw one white boys about to meet their end. She got on the phone and got us tickets to get back on the bus and take the train all the way back to the airport.
01:57:45 Where we were flying out the next morning, I didn't know. Not to relax back then. A later experience in New Orleans is when I really learned though another story for our.
01:57:56 Time. Yeah, there's a there's a lot of America where, you know, including, obviously Bessemer famously.
01:58:05 And East Saint Louis, or just regular Saint Louis or Baltimore or Detroit or you know?
01:58:14 And the list is getting longer every year where you don't want to. You don't want to be walking around after dark.
Numbers Lady
01:58:20 Yeah.Devon Stack
01:58:21 Because you will get murdered, Donald Duck, Tanner says. Devin, I heard a good idea in a Twitter space recently. Should the folks in free speech countries to use a UK VPN wait? Should the folks in free speech countries use a UK VPN?01:58:41 To draw enemy fire from prosecutors in UK.
01:58:45 Where mean tweeting is now illegal, 1000 people could cripple the comps by distracting them from the local offenders. I mean, look, I mean, I don't.
01:58:54 Think.
01:58:54 It.
01:58:55 Because they can find out that, oh, this is just a VPN IP and then.
01:59:00 You know that that's relatively easy to unless you've got like.
01:59:05 Access to.
01:59:07 IPS in the UK that aren't commonly used by other people you know through like popular VPN companies because that's.
01:59:18 It's pretty easy.
01:59:19 For them to determine whether or not it's from a VPN or not, I mean, I would imagine that they they'd be able to filter those out.
01:59:29 But I mean like if you wanna **** with them, it's, you know, I guess that could be fun.
01:59:33 But I don't think you'd be.
01:59:34 I don't think you'd cripple the system by any means.
01:59:39 Potato Mott says. I know you said you had qualms about covering A Bronx tale because it was going to make you have a complete and total spaghetti Niger meltdown, but that meltdown you had over the spaghetti bigger and the hyper chats last stream was great. I'd love to see more content like that. Also, you were right. And I was wrong. Deniro's father.
01:59:59 It was, in fact, the Fagot or a fenoc as spaghetti Eggers call them, and I am a potato potato nagger big shot.
02:00:09 I see. Yeah. There. There. I'll tell you what those those macaroni movies are are pretty thin skinned.
02:00:17 There was a there's there's some that are still.
02:00:19 Mad about that.
02:00:21 There, there's some that are still mad about that. It's like.
02:00:23 Come on guys.
02:00:25 You guys can't take a joke.
02:00:28 You can't take a joke. You're really going to get upset.
02:00:32 Are are you really going to get upset?
02:00:35 You you mozzarella monkeys, you're really going to get all uptight.
02:00:41 You're battalion. Everyone supposed to think I'm cool all the time, but I'm ******* Italian. I'm Italian. Italian.
02:00:53 Well, you're mad. No one actually thinks you're you. All of works. All of oil works aren't aren't cool ******* Gelato Jews.
02:01:07 Uh, it, obviously, it's all in good fun. It's all in good fun, except for the ones who are actually getting mad. If you're actually getting.
02:01:13 Mad.
02:01:14 Then I mean every every, every negative feeling that you're feeling right now. But if you're if you're not a ****** and you're Italian.
Speaker 20
02:01:23 Yeah, yeah.Devon Stack
02:01:24 You probably think it's kind of funny.02:01:27 As for A Bronx tale, I mean, I.
02:01:29 Don't know.
02:01:33 Maybe someday hot dogs for sale says.
02:01:38 Dev and I'm going to randomly hear your voice in a store out here someday. If you hear someone shout ******, it's me I expect getting the pit and return. Saint Louis was named for King St. Louis the 9th. Who found the Talmud guilty of blasphemy.
02:01:58 In Royal Court burned all the copies and expelled the Jews. Well, that's a little fun fact.
02:02:06 It's a fun fact. It's too bad he didn't.
02:02:11 How many jurisdiction in Illinois?
02:02:16 Pronouns based ******.
Speaker
02:02:19 With that.Speaker 35
02:02:22 As far as I can see.Neil Young
02:02:23 Where? Where?Devon Stack
02:02:28 Pronouns based, ****** watched appearance on Elijah Schaefer show? He asked.02:02:33 You what your people are called, alluding to Nick Fuentes having grippers. I'm downvoting the idea of us, your audience being referred to as pill poppers, maybe black pillars, but it's something may be odd to consider naming your people. Yeah, I don't have a cult so.
02:02:55 Yeah, you guys are just, you're just people that like the show, you know, like you're you're not liking some gang, right? You're not. You're not. You know, you're not like.
02:03:10 We don't have a cult.
02:03:12 I guess is what I'm getting at. I it was I I mean, I guess I I get why he asked cause I guess there are a lot of people that do have Colts but.
02:03:23 Yeah, I've. I've never. I just said the pill Popper thing because I thought it sounded funny.
02:03:29 But yeah, you guys are just.
02:03:31 Awesome. Awesome. Really awesome cool dudes that like the.
02:03:34 Show how about that?
02:03:37 Nail Bender says another masterful prosecution tonight, Devin the Tulsa Race Riot, is another event. A few years after the East Saint Louis that has been lied about horrendously from so-called mass graves to the victims, to the ridiculous claim about Greenwood being the Black Wall Street of the country.
02:03:57 Which one? I don't think I did that one yet. I did.
02:04:02 We did another one. I don't think it was Tulsa, but there was another one of these old tiny race riots that we covered up. Go back and look at my.
02:04:10 My streams I've done, I've research. I ended up researching so many.
02:04:13 Of these that.
02:04:15 Sometimes they they're the it's the the ****** thing is they're so similar. I mean, obviously that's that's, you know, you know, go figure right. The same thing happens every time black people show up, right. It's the same like it's the exact same thing.
02:04:30 It follows the exact same formula.
02:04:33 And you know that's.
02:04:36 That shouldn't be surprising, but it makes them kind of blur together a little bit, you know, because it's they're all exactly the ******* same.
02:04:45 Bindle bindle what?
02:04:54 Bindle says 2 white men, one of the OR two white men.
02:04:59 1 1/2 Mexicans a Jew, a Taiwanese man, an Irishman walk into an anime convention. They are all black Pilled fans and sit down to watch the stream. I'm not exaggerating, this is me and my friends right now. For the record, I'm one of the white.
02:05:16 Guys so we have.
02:05:18 Two white guys, 1 1/2 Mexicans. What does that even mean?
02:05:24 Is there like a, a Mexican and a half a Mexican, a Jew, a Taiwanese man, an Irishman?
02:05:32 Walking on and.
02:05:33 First of all, why you anime convention?
02:05:39 You shouldn't. You know what?
02:05:46 That's for the anime convention.
02:05:49 I can tolerate the diversity. I don't think I can tolerate the anime convention.
02:05:54 That's so that's if, if any of that.
02:05:58 Bothers me. It's the anime convention part but.
02:06:03 Well, hello to you and and the the model UN you've got going on over there at the the the Gay anime convention.
02:06:12 Hello, White says. Hey, Devin, we play often here. Love your strings. Thank you for all your hard work and tell Churro I said.
02:06:24 I think I'll catch you in the future. All right, well, hello to replay gang, shout out to replay gang as always. And thank you for the support there, fellow White.
02:06:38 Blute and Biden.
02:06:47 Blue Team Biden says Belleville must have had more magic soil than East Saint Louis. Yeah, crazy, right? How they were right next door to each other.
02:06:58 Like literally right next door to each other.
02:07:01 And one was a beautiful paradise.
02:07:05 And one was the murder capital of the world.
02:07:10 And all that separated was that that little gate and an all.
02:07:14 White police force.
02:07:16 That's that's the only. That's all. The only two things that that separated the two.
02:07:23 Lucky Larry Silverstein says. I don't think white people will. I think you mean will go extinct before humanity as a whole.
02:07:32 I think white people will be reduced to small pockets of survivors.
02:07:37 Think of this during the last Ice Age, 25 ish thousand years ago, Europeans were only tiny settlements of survivors will have to survive the brown edge this time. Well, the problem with what? How you're thinking is these are white people who are isolated. They had to survive the environment.
02:07:58 But they weren't surrounded by non whites who in addition to, you know, possibly killing them if they're the non whites that live in East Saint Louis. But it's also going to be non whites that breed them out.
02:08:12 You know, because if you're talking about the Ice Age and ancient Europeans hiding out in caves, the one of the things that's going to maintain the.
02:08:22 The white race in that situation is the fact that there is only other white people to to reproduce with and.
02:08:34 You know, not not the case. If you have small little pockets of whites in a very non white.
02:08:42 Country.
02:08:44 That's going to be one of the things that reduces your numbers, roads, your your genetics. Overtime is not everyone is going to.
02:08:54 Reproduce another a white person, and so it'll slowly brown out the.
02:09:00 The genetics there, I mean that, that's that's that's one thing that's an issue.
02:09:07 Is is uh.
02:09:10 Well, I mean, just just in.
02:09:13 Look at look at in South America, right or even Mexico, right. The reason why they speak Spanish is they used to be Spaniards. And while there's some, you know, the Castillian Mexicans. Right. The Castilian Spanish that live in Mexico, there's like blonde haired, you know, Spanish looking, Mexicans and the.
02:09:33 The upper classes I guess you could say of Mexicans a lot. There's a lot that aren't. You know, there's a lot of those four foot pointy shoed Mexican, you know, very, very dark skinned Mexicans and.
02:09:48 You know, so there there's that. That's that's what you run into is.
02:09:53 Is.
02:09:55 All the the other genetics floating around you, it's instead of instead of like a snowy tundra, right? It's this. It's this neighborhood here.
02:10:07 Which is less safe than the snowy tundra.
02:10:11 Rying says **** ******. *****.
02:10:14 Well, there you go.
02:10:17 Where's my? How come I don't have? I still don't have a button for that. I don't know why I don't have a button for that.
Speaker 11
02:10:23 I'll Hitler, *****.Devon Stack
02:10:25 Start to manually do that one.02:10:28 Ripped homeless Guy says on live map dot UA the USA often has more shooting than Ukraine on a good day. Also when they riot in Kenya, the army is brought in and the riot is put down. Learn from it. Yep, Yep. Well that's look. That's how it's going to end up.
02:10:48 Eventually, if you have instead of just a couple of black cities.
02:10:55 Because the black cities are still beholden to the state government, right? But once you start having black states, and once the federal government stops being run by white people because it's still basically is right. I mean, maybe you could say that for eight years, you know, we had Obama and.
02:11:13 Who knows? Maybe we'll have Kamala Harris here in a little bit, but it hasn't flipped yet. It hasn't. It hasn't pulled a.
02:11:21 East Saint Louis. Yet you know, and it will. It will eventually. And that's when she'll get really bad. That's when you'll have.
02:11:32 More third World police tactics going on and maybe that'll be necessary, right?
02:11:38 Might is right.
02:11:47 Speaking of Third World police tactics, Mike is right. Says every white person implicitly knows that blacks are a problem. Even if black violence touches their family. In some cases, that is still not enough to make them outwardly.
02:12:01 Acknowledge.
02:12:02 This fact, when white people stop being afraid of telling the truth, we might have a chance to fix this problem. Yeah, I think that partially what will happen is the the white people that are afraid of telling the truth but are not going to survive what's coming, or at least not in large numbers, they will.
02:12:22 Uh.
02:12:24 Either become victims of some of this violence, or because they, you know, they'll relax. I guess you could say. And look, it's not just black people, just diversity in general. They'll bleed out because they they don't see race, you know, like, oh, I don't see race. And so inevitably they will raise kids that don't see race and.
02:12:44 They'll they'll breed out with other races and you know they'll they'll they'll their generic line will cease to be white.
02:12:51 UM.
02:12:53 And.
02:12:56 Yeah, I I don't think it's it's going to get solved quite the way or quite the way you're saying necessarily, where like white people like wake up one day, I think it's going to just be kind of a slow.
02:13:08 Refining, if you will, of the the white gene pool to where whites within group high in Group preference will be the ones that reproduce.
02:13:18 Whites that know not to relax are going to be the ones that survive to reproductive age. Whites that, I mean we're we're getting put through the ringer. Right. And so the the wipes that aren't equipped to handle the modern conditions aren't going to reproduce and aren't going to survive. And the ones that are equipped will reproduce and survive.
02:13:40 And so the the traits of those white people will actually be different than.
02:13:46 Than the current the current generation of lights, I guess.
02:13:51 Love and division.
02:14:03 On a meta level, the 60 minutes piece is Jews using black issues to harass whites. Jews use blacks as human Shields. Well as bio or as biological weapons.
Numbers Lady
02:14:14 Yeah.Devon Stack
02:14:18 But yeah, you are correct.02:14:20 Cannot.
Speaker 11
02:14:24 Hello.02:14:25 Hello. Hello, hello.
Devon Stack
02:14:29 Kinnock says another great stream Devon today. I heard about another case of the chosen tribes usual behavior and from an unlikely source, This American Life #534 documents a Hasidic community parasiting.02:14:45 Are parasitizing a New York school district into oblivion?
02:14:51 Alright, well, uh.
02:14:54 Put that into my notes here.
02:14:59 I mean that that's another one of those things where it's like.
02:15:02 Those kind of blur together too, because there's just like a million examples of it. I mean, there's honestly, there's just as many examples of these Hasidic Jews.
02:15:15 You know, either running some kind of Ponzi scheme or some kind of white collar crime scheme.
02:15:21 Or, you know, parasitizing off the local government in some other scheme like there's just there's.
02:15:30 There's just as many of those stories as.
02:15:32 There are like.
02:15:32 Blacks going and destroying the city stories.
02:15:38 Bill Monigan, Bill Monaghan.
Speaker 15
02:15:47 95.Devon Stack
02:15:51 Belmont again says thanks, this was a timely addition for me. I've been waffling on my commitment to leave town before its majority.02:15:58 Nation at the current birth rate, the class of 2040 will be 2/3, second generation Haitian and more are busted regularly. I find out next week what I can get from my house. Well, that might be another issue too is you know, sell it before the the property values plummet because that's going to be.
02:16:19 That that's also something that's that blurs together like that's another component that's that seems to always always figure into the equation. Yeah. Good luck. Bill Monigan it's it's, you know, it's sad to see your own personal Bessemer or.
02:16:37 East Saint Louis. You know you're going to be like those bitter cops. They grew up in that in that area and and then had to say goodbye.
02:16:48 But good luck and hopefully that works out for you. Grenade says hi, Devin. Feeling pretty bummed out or bummed down Tropical Storm Debbie hit my city pretty hard. All of my basement has been flooded. I had a lot of vintage electronic equipment.
02:17:07 That.
02:17:09 Uploaded or hold on the equipment that has been flooded. Fortunately, none of it was powered on at the time of flooding. Any advice on how to salvage my electronics? Thank you. Depending on how long they've been submerged, you might get away pretty OK with it. Water itself is not what damages.
02:17:30 What what it is is the the impurities in the water, which if it's flood water, there's probably a lot of that. So honestly because they I mean if they're submerged.
02:17:43 The first thing I would do, even though this might sound crazy depending on what it is.
02:17:48 You might get distilled water.
02:17:52 And wash them thoroughly. I mean cause like they were already underwater, right? So putting more water on, that's not going to make it worse, but it will get rid of whatever **** was in the water. So you can get like a, you know, like those those bug poison sprayers. Like, it's almost like a. It's almost like a Super Soaker that you wear on your back.
02:18:12 The big pressure tank that you pump up and then you, you know you can spray stuff.
02:18:17 Get a bunch of distilled water, because that's not going to have anything in it. It's just H2O and kind of power. Wash them down. Anything that was some you know, if it's especially if it's like muddy and **** like whatever, anything that was submerged and got a bunch of **** on it, actually scrub it down.
02:18:36 It.
02:18:37 Some components are going to be ruined and people are always weird about doing that, but you got to remember, like the people that uhm.
02:18:44 Restore old circuit boards like and I mean like the like the boards that were in old arcade machines or even like old motherboards. You can check out on YouTube that it's it's standard practice to actually scrub these motherboards down with soap and water, and people do it in their sinks. And when you first see it, you're like, oh, that doesn't.
02:19:05 Seem like a good idea.
02:19:07 But again, if you rinse with distilled water, that'll that. That should help out a lot alcohol if.
02:19:15 Course is another way, and it depends on what what the electronics are, but that's going to be the the big thing that causes corrosion and causes problems. It's going to be whatever was floating around in the water and that's also going to sort things out. If you know, like if if it, if anything, conductive dries out across the couple.
02:19:36 You know, points on like a I don't. It depends on how vintage are these electronics, you know, I mean is it like tube equipment, is it like you know 80S motherboard type stuff, but yeah just wash it off, wash it off and.
02:19:54 If it's something like.
02:19:57 Like if it's like a metal case that you don't want to rust, I'd. I'd wash it off with distilled water and I'd wash it off with like.
02:20:07 You know, like alcohol to be extra safe.
02:20:11 But you, you know, you might just, unfortunately.
02:20:15 You might have some water damage. I don't know how you know how. What kind of stuff you got, but that sucks, man.
02:20:22 That sucks. I I wouldn't. I wouldn't be. Yeah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't throw in the towel, though. You. You'd be surprised at.
Speaker 12
02:20:29 Much.Devon Stack
02:20:30 Some of this stuff can survive, especially if it's not under the water for a long period of time. When my the other room I told you I had a pipe burst and I had a room flood like a week ago. I had a couple old Heathkit radios on the floor that got about.02:20:50 5 inches underwater and that's basically what I did is I rinsed them out with distilled water and put them out in the.
02:20:58 Sun and they.
02:21:00 I've yet to try to. I'm I'm I'm not going to try to power them. They were radios. I hadn't gotten to yet, so they were already. I don't even know what you know.
02:21:07 What's ****** ** on them yet? But now I've got a little note on those radios saying these are underwater.
02:21:16 Don't just plug it in. You know. Not that I've ever did anyway. Yeah. And just get, like, a variac and bring it up slow. Whatever you got, you know, and hope for the best.
02:21:25 Uh, but yeah, that sucks. Hopefully. Uh.
02:21:29 Hopefully things.
02:21:32 Things turn around for you there.
02:21:34 What? What is going on with that?
02:21:37 Hurricane right now.
02:21:45 We've had some extreme weather here and so I've been to the.
02:21:49 When I go to like the UM.
02:21:54 The weather website I kept seeing little oh Hurricane Debbie this then the other, but I didn't actually.
02:22:00 Look at it. I didn't think that it actually hit anything yet.
02:22:08 Where is that at?
02:22:13 Oh, that's because I was looking at the Ernesto map.
02:22:20 Yeah, it's going through new.
02:22:21 York.
02:22:23 Right now.
02:22:28 Alright, I think so. Or then I already do that.
02:22:36 Yeah, well, it's that time of year.
02:22:42 Now.
02:22:43 Last socks, man. Hopefully things.
02:22:46 Hopefully things.
02:22:49 Get better for you, grenade.
02:22:52 **** knuckle. **** knuckle.
02:22:55 Money is power. Money is the only weapon that the Jew has to defend himself with.
02:23:01 Go, Julie, this *** is.
02:23:19 **** knuckle with the big donut, says. Hey, Devin, what's your take on forgiveness? Do you think it's still relevant to a point? Or should we start having might is right. Excuse me. Mindset for our current situation. Keep up the good work.
02:23:34 Take care forgiveness. How do you mean? Like in what situation? I think there's some things that are unforgivable.
02:23:43 And I think that forgiveness.
02:23:49 My my take on forgiveness is not everyone deserves it, and and that you can't just.
02:23:57 It's like when they all right. So there's some. All right there. There's some Christians that think to repent. All you have to do is basically.
02:24:06 Feel bad, I guess, and and say I'm sorry and and then your sins are like clean or whatever, right?
02:24:14 That's never sat well with me. I feel like that part of.
02:24:19 Of repenting of your sin, whatever it might be, is restitution. Making up for whatever it is you did, and there's some things you can't restore. For example, if you murdered someone right, you can't bring them back to life. Like if you if you stole the 100 bucks from someone.
02:24:40 And then you wanted to repent of your sin of stealing 100 bucks. I would think that part of that would be going to that person and giving them 100 bucks and saying, I'm sorry I stole 100 bucks. Here's 100 bucks.
02:24:53 And then then that person deserves, or I don't know if they automatically deserve, but then that person can be forgiven, right?
02:25:02 But if it's something you can't make up for, right? If you if you destroy.
02:25:07 Something that you can't restore to the the rightful owner of that thing that you destroyed or or like I said, if if if you kill someone, you can't bring them back to life and there's even things like if you rape someone you can't, like, unripe them.
02:25:24 I don't know that you you really can.
02:25:27 Well, at least I can't forgive you. You know, people might say. Well, God will forgive you. You know, let God forgive you then I'm not going.
02:25:35 To.
02:25:36 So for me that's that's a big thing where if you do something that.
02:25:42 That you need to be forgiven of.
02:25:46 You got to at least make an effort to restore whatever it is you.
02:25:51 Whatever damage you've done, right, whatever harm you've done.
02:25:55 You have to either undo it or or make an attempt.
02:25:59 And then it's up to whoever you did the harm to. So it's it's. I know it's kind of a vague answer. It's kind of a vague question.
02:26:10 If you mean forgiveness to like what? Like the ruling class? No, I think that.
02:26:20 I think that if in a perfect world that probably it's going to if things aren't going to unfold this way, but if you had a in a perfect world where we rose to power suddenly.
Speaker 22
02:26:23 See.Devon Stack
02:26:32 And we were all able to unseat the people that are currently in power. I would not forgive them.02:26:43 And and not and just. From a practical standpoint, I wouldn't forgive them. I'd make examples of them to warn people.
02:26:52 Who might have similar desires?
02:26:56 To warn them not to act on those desires.
02:27:00 But I would also from a a pragmatic standpoint, I'd want to remove them.
02:27:06 And their genetics from the gene pool.
02:27:09 And to some extent, their ideas, I'd want to erase them from existing.
02:27:18 If.
02:27:20 If you get my meaning, but that's, you know, we're not in a position like where that can ever happen. So I don't, I don't think or at least.
02:27:29 Not in a way that I not in any way I can imagine happening. So you know, let it let let God forgive them the way I see it. Let God forgive them. That's not my responsibility. If if if someone's done harm to me and they can't undo it.
02:27:47 Then **** them.
02:27:50 Lord of the King says why don't 10 year old Japanese slums have problems with mold and cockroaches? Enjoy the buck.
02:27:59 Yeah, why not? Why not?
02:28:02 Terrace, Tarantula said you should look into Dalton, Illinois and Cook County, the mayor Tiffany Henyard's office was raided by the FBI from mob related tactics, corruption. The Black City residents just hired ex Mayor Lori Lightfoot as.
02:28:20 Peter, two days ago, Mayor Henyard went on the run worst mayor.
02:28:28 In the US.
02:28:30 This I'm assuming this is a.
02:28:33 And black mayor.
02:28:35 Tiffany henyard.
02:28:41 Who is this? Yep.
02:28:45 She is, according to CBS News, she is nowhere to be found.
02:28:53 So they are still looking for her.
02:28:57 A black mayor on the run.
02:29:02 Imagine that a lowly scribe in God's army.
Speaker 15
02:29:13 Bye.Devon Stack
02:29:15 Cops routinely enforce unconstitutional gun laws. They will never be part of the solution.02:29:25 OK, I'm not sure what you're referring to exactly, but.
02:29:30 Yeah, I mean, look, cops, cops work for their bosses. Simple as that.
02:29:35 Cops work for their bosses like everybody else.
02:29:39 So expecting cops to suddenly be based in.
02:29:46 And be helpful, it's.
02:29:49 We're way beyond that. Cops work for their bosses.
02:29:53 Macho Gacho says I made a wrong turn going to the casino a few years ago and took an unplanned detour through downtown East Saint Louis at about 10:00 PM on Friday.
02:30:07 Luckily, the only living thing I saw was a giant, and I mean a giant rat that ran across the street right in front of me.
02:30:19 Well, giant river rat. You saw lucky for you.
02:30:26 Mike Lindell's crack pipe.
Numbers Lady
02:30:29 Good gorilla. Good, good grill.Devon Stack
02:30:37 Mike Lindell's crack pipe says I could be wrong, but I'm worried we might see AK-40 sevens to show up in London in the near future if whites can't figure their **** out quick.02:30:48 It's going to become a bloodbath over there. Just a hunch. Ah, I don't think it will be.
02:30:54 I mean, I think that you're going to have a crackdown and you're going to have.
02:31:02 Honestly, I think in six months this is just going to.
02:31:04 Be a blip.
02:31:07 I mean, it's going to be a blip. It's going to it's you're not going to have it. I don't think this is going like an escalating thing. And next thing you know, it's a race war with AK-40 sevens. I mean, how, how are those even? I mean, look, I I just don't see anything like that even remotely happening.
02:31:24 There's been race riots before in in England in the UK and the same thing happens every time you have. I mean it's like it's like America, right? We have race riots. Every ours are different because we do have guns and we have.
02:31:42 Our blacks seem like they're more violent, oddly, but we have race riots every what like 10 years.
02:31:49 Massive race riots sometimes more often than 10 years. Sometimes we get like 15 years off.
02:31:56 But it it's regular right? And you have this you have these big race riots and black people get a bunch of gibs and then they shut up and leave us alone for. Well, I mean, not really. But, you know, I mean, they don't lie. It it in mass for about 10 years. Then it happens again. And I think that's just what the UK is trying to experience the white people.
02:32:16 Fighting back will be heavily.
Speaker 18
02:32:21 Punished.Devon Stack
02:32:22 And it's already begun. You know, people are going to start getting arrested for liking tweets and and sharing Facebook posts. And some of that's already begun to.02:32:34 And I don't know. I just, I don't see it. This is like the beginning of something that, you know, bunch of civil unrest that's going.
02:32:40 To.
02:32:41 Spiral out of control.
02:32:44 But who knows? Who knows? Jack Travis Smith says hi. Black pill. Thanks for the stream. I have to say your unique combination of analytical skills, creative flair and powerful spirit truly makes you an exceptional content creator. Clearly, you're the best in the market. Well, I appreciate that Jack Travis Smith, very kind.
02:33:04 Words.
02:33:06 Lamp shade denier says issues in New Orleans compilation Ross Kemp wait, what issues in the new New Orleans compilation Ross Kemp Extreme world?
02:33:22 Lampshade denier did you do what I think you you did?
Neil Young
02:33:27 Yes.Devon Stack
02:33:28 You are gay. Whoa.02:33:49 Send me a YouTube link.
02:33:55 You know Susan.
02:33:56 'S dad. Now you guys hear about that?
02:34:00 Happy news for the the handful of you haven't heard about this yet.
02:34:04 The Wojcicki is was her name Susan Wojcicki? Or something like that?
02:34:10 Would would Juki, would you? I don't know. Something. Then her son just died too.
02:34:16 There's some like weird voodoo magic going on.
02:34:22 Anyway, she's dead.
02:34:24 Ding Dong, the Wicked Witch is dead.
02:34:28 Mr. Chow Lee says good evening Devin, and thanks for the always excellent content. Well, I appreciate that, Mister Choley.
02:34:36 Off her commandant says. Hey, Devin giving civil rights and desegregation to blacks has been a mistake. And of course, as always, you find the Jew in the minds of it.
02:34:46 In the midst of it, in in the midst of it, I think.
02:34:50 I'm also sick of hearing that blacks can't succeed because of slavery. Blacks are in general just low IQ, but that's an insult to apes because apes have higher IQ's. Well, Coco the gorilla.
02:35:05 Had a I don't know. I don't know how real this is, but then they say that Coco the grill had like an IQ of like 70 or something like that, which.
02:35:15 If if at least in some populations of blacks would make Coco the gorilla smarter than some some blacks.
02:35:25 Yeah, yeah. I mean, look, look, look, we all look all jokes aside, that is 100% white, blacks cannot succeed, and white societies. And it's not fair to them. Honestly, it's not fair to them. They shouldn't be having to compete with whites in a white society. It's not good for them. It's not good for us.
02:35:46 I mean more more importantly, it's not good for us, right? I'm tired of of actually. What's worse for the I'm not trying to make that argument because I don't care what's better or worse for them, but just it is worse for.
02:35:59 It's they would be much happier living amongst other blacks and the society designed by them for them.
02:36:07 And they wouldn't have to worry about having this constant cloud of I'm being oppressed all the time. You know, psychologically that can't be good.
02:36:16 They'd be competing with other people who have similar talents and and aptitude.
02:36:23 They wouldn't have to feel as if, uh, I mean it's it's it's literally it's like getting like a a special Ed kid and putting him in the gifted class. It's it's ****** **. You shouldn't do that.
02:36:34 And it's ****** ** for both parties. It's funked up for the gifted kids because the gifted kids now have to deal with this ******* ****** in.
02:36:40 Their class.
02:36:42 And so they're not learning at the same rate that they would be if the ****** was gone because they got to wait around for like this. The teacher has to spend all their ******* time.
02:36:51 On the ****** kid, that's never going to get it anyway, right?
02:36:54 It's it, that's.
02:36:55 Really what it is.
02:36:57 There's just projected onto a societal level that's really what it is.
02:37:01 Is the gifted kids in class?
Speaker 20
02:37:04 Would be.Devon Stack
02:37:06 Learning all kinds of stuff that they are able to learn in an environment that would be, you know, tailor made for them to to learn in, but yet they're stuck in a class where the teacher has to spend all of their resources, all their time on the ******** kid who's never going to learn it anyway. So it's really kind of pointless.02:37:29 And it's just frustrating for everybody involved. It's frustrating for the the teacher. It's frustrating for the ******** kid. It's frustrating for the gifted kids, but that's America.
02:37:39 And so innovation stalls out and life just kind of sucks more for everybody involved. It's it's.
Speaker 12
02:37:46 That's just what it.Devon Stack
02:37:47 Is.02:37:50 Here we go.
02:37:55 Good green vibe.
02:37:58 Says I don't hate blacks.
02:38:00 I just prefer the company of whites.
02:38:03 Yeah, I mean, look, I actually, I actually don't hate blacks either. People might find that surprising. I don't hate black.
02:38:12 I feel bad for some of them. I hate I hate some blacks.
02:38:17 I hate a lot of blacks, actually, that a lot of blacks have very hateable attributes.
02:38:27 But I don't just hate All Blacks indiscriminately.
02:38:31 I just don't want to live amongst them and I don't think it's good for them. I don't think it's good for us as I just was explaining.
02:38:39 And uh.
02:38:41 I also I to some extent in in terms of America, it's different for Europe, but in America I have some sympathy for their situation because it's like, well, I mean some of these people live, their families have been in America for.
02:38:57 400 years.
02:39:01 Does that count for anything you know? Does that mean do they have? They didn't come here willingly. It's not like they came here.
02:39:08 Uh.
02:39:10 Like a lot of the other immigrants that have come here to take advantage of the country that my ancestors built, they were brought here by Jews. So it's like, well, I mean, surely that that has to figure into.
02:39:24 Into the equation right on on how you view the situation. So I I I don't just hate blacks, I I actually have a lot of sympathy for their situation and and.
02:39:38 As you say, I just prefer I very much prefer the company of wines, Grenade says. Equipment was functioning IBM 5150 with color monitors, CRT TV's functioning 486 and two radios and turntables. I love tinker with old electronics and making them work again.
02:39:59 But I've never dealt with flood damage. Yeah, well, you know.
02:40:04 So I would say make sure if if that if the flood water was dirty and it probably was, I would say distilled water and the make sure you got make sure you look into.
02:40:21 When you do eventually power these things back on to see if they survive.
02:40:27 Look into a current limiting.
02:40:32 What is it called?
02:40:36 It's basically you put a light bulb in line.
02:40:40 With the the AC.
02:40:43 And then you have that connected to.
02:40:47 What's what's the?
02:40:51 It might just be called that current limiting bulb.
02:41:18 I know the rest of that. Everyone else is just like we don't ******* care.
02:41:25 Uh, let's see here curling bulb.
02:41:34 So the reason why you do this, yeah. OK. So what you do is hopefully you've got.
02:41:42 A A variac.
02:41:43 You need a variac if you don't have a variant you.
02:41:45 Need a variac?
02:41:47 But what you need to do is in line before between the AC coming from the wall.
02:41:52 And the variac is or after. I don't know if it really matters. What you want is a a light bulb. That's.
02:42:03 Let's see here. It's been a while since I wired mine up. Mines. Like in a box that I wired up.
02:42:09 Where? Where does it go?
02:42:14 Yeah. OK. You wire in series with the the live.
02:42:22 The live wire coming from the the wall so it's it's and and and I would put it I think on mine it's before the very act.
02:42:30 And what the why? The reason why you do that is and you want different wattages, it has to be an incandescent bulb. I have like 100 Watt bulb and like a 50 Watt bulb and like a 25 Watt bulb. And what you do is when you when you have that bulb in the circuit and you slowly bring up.
02:42:50 The variac. If there's a short like in a transformer or really any part of the circuit.
02:42:56 It will start drawing like a bunch of current and that will light up the light bulb and that will take the current away from the faulty component and so it won't, you know, melt down. Whatever is broken and so look on YouTube there's there's there's lots of instructions on how to do it, but I would do that.
02:43:16 And when you bring them up for the first time after you get them all cleaned up and that'll help out.
02:43:23 All right. Let's see here.
02:43:27 Where was I?
Speaker 11
02:43:34 There we go.Devon Stack
02:43:36 Psycho drilla #2.02:43:42 I had to clear my throat there for a second.
02:43:45 We don't have race riots. We have chimp outs and Muslims show or Muslim shows of force. The whites have no unity in the UK. You don't really know what you're talking about. Made. Well, when did I say they had unity?
02:44:03 You don't know what you're talking about.
02:44:06 I have often said that I don't know the situation there and.
02:44:11 And so yeah, I don't know what you're ******* talking.
02:44:13 About boy, boy, mate, you.
02:44:17 Know what you're talking about, mate.
02:44:18 Sailing about so.
02:44:21 So pace off.
02:44:22 Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what the.
02:44:26 The situation is there, but I will tell you this. I don't see it happening.
02:44:30 Ohh wait, are you ****** *** because I called it riots because I called it white riots?
02:44:36 Man, are you?
02:44:37 Are you ******* eel? Are going to get all sassy at me now too.
02:44:45 Anyway.
02:44:48 Arguing about a ******* word here.
02:44:51 Head for the country, says East Cleveland used to be the nicest section of Cleveland Rockefeller money Millionaires, Row Beautiful homes, etcetera.
02:45:02 Now it's the biggest shithole in Ohio with corrupt, useless government.
02:45:09 Yeah. Well, there you go.
02:45:12 Tail as old as time. Lamp, shade denier. I know you hate links, but the video is very entertaining. A British guy interviews the New Orleans **** ******* and they are the dumbest you've ever seen. Well, people can check that out. I'll. I'll check it out. Possibly after the show. Let's take a look.
02:45:32 At Rumble and we got one on Rumble and it's from Sarah Town. And it says thanks for the interesting stream. Well, I appreciate that.
02:45:43 Sarah town. All right.
02:45:44 Well, I think that's everything guys.
02:45:47 So we're actually, uh.
02:45:51 Get away. Get it. Gather this a.
02:45:52 Little early tonight, which is kind of nice because.
02:45:54 I'm.
02:45:55 Extremely hot and sweaty right now, and I want to turn the air conditioner back up.
02:46:00 So all right guys, hope you all have a good rest of your weekend. I'll be back here on Wednesday.
02:46:10 And in the mean time.
02:46:17 We're black pilled.
02:46:21 I am of course.
02:46:24 Devon stack.
Speaker 25
02:46:27 On knock down fight in the middle of the basketball court, a cheerleading season cancelled. Good evening. I'm.Speaker 29
02:46:33 Mike Bush and I mean all red. Thank you for joining us. The East Saint Louis cheerleading team is benched for their role in this fight. Our Jenna Barnes talked to the man who recorded the video and learned he's coming to the girls defense.Speaker 35
02:46:46 That videographer tells me the cheerleading team should have been at tonight's girls basketball game. But because of that brawl, he captured, the team is suspended for the rest of the school year.02:46:58 Saturday night's basketball game, the East Saint Louis Flyers versus the Trinity Catholic Titans. The two cheerleading teams performed dueling routines.
02:47:09 Until those cheers turned into chaos.
02:47:13 The adults in the room were hardly able to break up the fight. Some of the students ended up on the ground behind the camera was Larry Duncan Allen.
Speaker 36
02:47:23 This one video got more hits in all my games put together.Speaker 35
02:47:27 He shoots most East Saint Louis games for his company, city of Champions TV Thursday the East Saint Louis Superintendent announced the rest of the cheerleader season is.02:47:36 Canceled, saying the team didn't meet the standard of safety set for students and athletes.
Speaker 36
02:47:42 We expect our kids to behave better than we do.Speaker 35
02:47:44 Larry is coming to the girls defence.Speaker 36
02:47:47 And these Saint Louis, we just want to condemn our kids for any little wrong they do and forget about the good that they've done. These girls have carried themselves with class all year long and with one problem. This is spend the rest of their season.Speaker 35
02:48:02 We're also hearing from the Archdiocese of Saint Louis in response to the Trinity teams behavior. They say they're confident school leadership is taking the steps necessary to make sure this never happens again. In East Saint Louis, Jenna Barnes 5 on your side.Speaker 29
02:48:17 Two years ago, you might remember the East Saint Louis Boys track team season was suspended.02:48:22 Because of a brawl in the stands.
