      @MisterVDetails Рік тому +5

      I agree with you. All the grown men and women he’s interviewed need more time to speak, with Frank’s footage still supporting their stories being understood like inserts during the interviews. They’ve developed a strongly felt deliverance with the realities they share. I hope they all see that. We all find things to identify with, but this, with the editing and visuals, raw emotions, it’s as real as it can get. The world needs to know it respectfully.

    Saw this in CA, mostly ELA. Lots of these guys/gals came from hones with moms and dads. Yet, many of the same outcomes. Criminality and incarceration were an element of their lives.
    My dad's family came from the same streets, but never ran the streests. Went to school, no drugs, received their degrees, became engineers, attorneys, CPAs. One actually received his Phd in Mathenatics. Chicanos, just like this dude. Came from neighborhoods similar to the ones this guy came from. I don't understand how this can continue...

    The part where he talks about selling cr*ck and the "CASINO" appears on the building behind the gate... deep symbolism.
    Life in the streets is Exactly like a casino. When you bet right you Win Big but if you keep gambling eventually you'll lose it all
    End up right behind those Bars.

By repenting from your sins and assepting the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal savior 🙏 we are all brothers and sisters we must not hate or fight on one another our enemy is Satan he wants to tormentous in the lake of fire called hell. God Jehova will give us everlasting life in Heaven. So we choose the path from Good or 😈 evil. We must follow the 10 Commandments of God. I Read the King James Bible New Bergion I'm a Born again Christian Evanjelist ✝️ I represent the Father and Son also the Holly Spirit this my Gang of Soldiers. I go in 💯 % we don't fight against flesh and blood but against the devil and its demons. I bind and rebuke Satan in the Mighty Name Of Jesus Christ. Go back to dry places and to the pit. Holly Ghost Fire 🔥 Hallelujah Amen 🙏. God Bless Us All.
