um, over, over three, over three or 400 times.

um, over, over three, over three or 400 times.

Every day.

Every day.

We'd rotate, you know, sometimes if, uh, you know, we'd even take the bus all the way down to Malibu, you know, we, we knew, you know, the ones that were really hip in the hip to what we were doing and the ones that weren't, um, what signs did you look for? What size?

We'd rotate, you know, sometimes if, uh, you know, we'd even take the bus all the way down to Malibu, you know, we, we knew, you know, the ones that were really hip in the hip to what we were doing and the ones that weren't, um, what signs did you look for? What size?

Oh, signs. Upper-scale areas that maybe were less concerned with shoplifting, so maybe less security, less locking things up. Anything close to downtown was pretty much untouchable. They had everything locked up already. So, you know, I didn't really go to the Valley, but, you know, we'd hit Culver City, Malibu, Palisades, things like that.

Yeah. So this is, this is very, yeah. So the policy, the policy, the broken policies incentivize bad behavior because they don't punish bad behavior. Um, like I told you in 2011, I didn't shoplift cause there was a felony. Uh, you know, you would get a felony if you got caught shoplifting. So I didn't do that. once it was removed, the incentive was there to start shoplifting.

So I didn't do that. once it was removed, the incentive was there to start shoplifting.

So that's just one policy. But, um, you know, I just was allowed to use drugs openly wherever I wanted. Uh, I was allowed to act out antisocially in public spaces and restaurants. I was allowed to not pay my fare for the subway or the bus. Um, and I was allowed to sleep outside any, anywhere I wanted. And, um, You know, these sorts of things, you know, people will do what you let them do.

You know, it's a pretty basic concept of human psychology that for some reason the people that are in charge of making policy, they just won't listen to me. You know, it's very obvious, you know, you will do what you, and then another thing is that I wanted treatment. I wanted detox. I wanted treatment. There was incredibly few resources to achieve that.

And at one point, by the end, I actually wanted to go to jail, and I couldn't. And I got blessed. You know, I prayed, and I said, you know, send me to jail. You know, get me—I need— a nonviolent felony or something like that, I need to sit in jail for like six months. Like that is what's going to help me.

Yeah, to figure out how I can get into jail. And I mean, I swear to God, I prayed and within 12 hours I was facing a violent felony. and ended up in jail. And I did, uh, I was facing two years in prison. Uh, I got mugged at a, in a Panda Express and, uh, someone stole, I had an Obama phone. That's like a free phone.

And he took my phone and I took out a knife and asked him for the, you know, said, give me my phone back. And there was security. They stopped both of us. And, uh, I went to jail and I, I fought a case for six months and got off heroin.
