Starting point is 00:00:05 Okay, guys, Clinton Joss here. I'm going to do a video that I don't know if I should be doing it. I don't want it to come across wrong, okay? It's about a section. It's not about the police officer. It's about a section in the RCMP. And I watched the video already. His name is Constable Jamie Dobson.
Starting point is 00:00:27 He's got a section in Kelowna that deals with people that suffer from mental illness. He's kind of, he looks after them. The cop seems like a great cop. There's no doubt he's a great cop. So I'm not blaming him that he's in that section. The point of the video is to show you how amazing. Our system is. How crazy our system is.
Starting point is 00:00:58 I'm going to show you a system that doesn't work. And it hasn't work for years and it continues to get worse. Again, this cop, don't blame them for being in the business. position. If the position existed when I was a police officer, I probably would have took the position. I dealt well with people that suffered from mental illness. Never shot one, never pepper sprayed one. I blame the government. And I know this video is only going to get 10 views, but I got to talk about it. I got to talk about when I see something that just seems so insane to me. I got to talk about it. And maybe I'm wrong. Maybe what I'm about to say,
Starting point is 00:01:42 because I'm going to show you the video, a little part of it. Maybe I'm completely wrong. Leave a comment, guys. The only way my videos get views, and I don't know why this is, is if you guys have to comment. So if you can make a comment, even if you don't want to, it ups the algorithm. It does something fancy for my video that I'm about to do. Why am I doing this? And I don't even know what the title's going to be. Boring. But it's not boring to me.
Starting point is 00:02:16 I'm going to try to make some points. The system is a complete failure, and you're going to see it. Let's watch the video. The videos from the MPF, okay? That's the RCMP union. And they post videos on their website. You could join their website if you want, just punch in NMPF on YouTube. And they post videos quite often.
Starting point is 00:02:36 And here's one that they, just posted yesterday. Who's out here today? Two, two, none of those guys. How are we doing for smoke, so no. Can you just check that glove box? Let's see how we're doing. Do you have any?
Starting point is 00:02:49 Like, he's just used down, so he's folding over and half, sort of. We'll loop around again and see if he's still standing in a sec. Constable Jamie Dobson with the Colonial Pleasing Crisis Team, or PAC team. The PAC team was designed to deal with community issues, deal with, you know, drug We're going to do psychosis type calls in the homeless population, as well as support regular members, frontline members, with mental health or crisis calls. We do have a nurse that's attached to us from Tuesday to Friday. Hey, it's Jamie. I'm just parking downstairs, so whenever you're ready, come on down.
Starting point is 00:03:35 See, okay, if it was me, I would go nuts if I had to drive around with a nurse. My wife's a nurse, okay? I like nurses, but no. I don't want you in my patrol car. So good on you, Jamie. Driving a nurse around. What for? Oh, because they know that, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:03:53 You're not going to get better than a police office. So you're not going to get better than Jamie when it comes to dealing with people that are having a mental illness breakdown. Okay, I'm sure there's a good reason why then. I feel like the RCMP is doing this, driving around, looking after people that are suffering, people that are drug addicted to make a point, to show. how great the RCMP are with dealing with people that are suffering for mental illness. Why are we doing that? Why is it in place? I'm going to tell you why.
Starting point is 00:04:29 I'm going to tell you why he's doing it. He says so out of control. And I'm going to tell you why it's so out of control. And if it's so out of control, you've got to ask yourself, is what we're doing, working? Is it getting better or is it getting worse? It's getting a lot worse. So it's not working. So police are band-aids, complete band-aids.
Starting point is 00:04:56 That's what they do. They fix this stuff the government can't. Out of control this so-called homelessness that we're talking about. And it's not homelessness. These people aren't homeless. Ooh. Okay. It's my responsibility for the safety of the nurse.
Starting point is 00:05:18 So long time no C. Ridiculous. ridiculous it shouldn't be your responsibility she shouldn't be in the car so we'll just head out say hello make the rounds and just see sort of what the day holds for us hey brother
Starting point is 00:05:33 do you need any food or anything like can I give you something are you sure you know why he doesn't eat any food because he's full because he's not hungry they're not hungry ever okay they get lots of food
Starting point is 00:05:48 they eat all the time he doesn't even want to He just turned down food. How does a homeless person turn down food? Aren't homeless people? Hungry? No, they're not. Here, clothes?
Starting point is 00:06:03 Okay. We collaborate together, the two of us, and we decide... I'm already heated. Clint, why does this make you angry? Oh, I'll tell you why. Oh, look at this guy laying on the ground. What direction we go? We come up with plans for repeat clients that we have.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Does that seem normal to you right there? normal to you right there? Maybe we don't think they're getting the help that they need. It's usually a referral process and stuff like that. A lot of times we can skip that line. There are some clients that we know during certain times of a month. What are you doing? Not bad, buddy.
Starting point is 00:06:45 What's new in the zoo? Maybe it's closer to medication day or injection day, that they're heightened. And we can see that first thing in the morning. So we might come up with a plan for the day to interact with them. That's okay. Are you solar powering right now, warming up or what? To try to get them to calm down right off the bat.
Starting point is 00:06:58 and maybe we won't get any calls for them. And we'll repeat that to the day. Okay, sounds good. We will talk in a bit. Okay, brother, talk soon. The guy's just laying on the ground, guys. Laying on the ground in Kelona. We can't do anything about it.
Starting point is 00:07:13 He's not the only one. I'm going to get back to that guy laying on the ground, okay? Jamie's about to go to a safe injection site here. So this is the safe injection site, Ali. This is the safe injection site here. Safe injection site. Do you guys know what that is? That's a place.
Starting point is 00:07:30 where the so-called homeless get to go and inject their illegal drugs safely. I was driving down one. We got one here in town near 4th Avenue. I swear to God, we went to the bottle depot. We drive by the safe injection site. There's a guy selling drugs on the side of the road, right in front of the safe injection site, points to me, wants me to come over so I could buy his drugs.
Starting point is 00:08:00 I'm with my wife and two kids. Working great, isn't it? Why do we care that these criminals, most of them, need a place to safely inject their illegal drugs? Dumbest thing around. And I'm going to tell you why. Everything is a relationship. We feel that it's better to make that relationship so that we have the constant communication. I agree with that.
Starting point is 00:08:29 It allows us to be more personal with the client and build that relationship. You good? Oh, no, he's doing great. He's tweaking out. He's doing great. What's up? What do you need? I do have some boost in someone sure. I do for sure. Tobacco. Got some juice for him. Okay? Jamie's just doing his job, guys. We took an oath.
Starting point is 00:08:52 And the oath basically says you're going to do what you say. Says something like that. He's just doing his job. But now we're feeding them. We're giving them juice to go along with their drug intake. And this is, I can't help it now that I. I have kids, I look at this stuff differently. I pretend that it's my kid. If it's, listen, let's just keep on listening. I imagine that this is my child coming up to me, okay? Packed vehicle is stuffed with boost and canola bars and jackets and socks and tukes and gloves. Strawberry or chocolate? I have a tent in there, there's one, I have sleeping bags in there
Starting point is 00:09:31 for the people that do need it. He's got a sleeping bag. If I pull up in my kid, ask me, hey, dad, throw me a sleeping bag, I'd be like, go fuck yourself. Go home. I don't want you having drinks. I don't want you having juice. I don't want you having free drugs. I don't want you having heat. I don't want you having a roof over your head. I want you to get help. I want you to come home. Maybe these people don't have a place to go home. That's not the police forces problem. They don't want to have a home. They want to be on the street. They got free food, free money to spend. spend on their drugs. What else do they need? They got shelter? They got heat. Ridiculous. And now we're driving around feeding them. The worst thing that can ever happen to my son is that he starts doing
Starting point is 00:10:24 drugs. I kick him out of the house and he goes to a neighbor's house, a friend's house. I don't want him to a friend's house. I don't want anybody taking him in. Then he gets kicked out of the friend's house. Then he goes to the shelter. I don't want him having shelter. I want him coming home. Don't give him shelter. Don't give him a sleeping bag. Don't give him food. Then he goes to welfare. He gets money. I don't want him having money. What's it going to do with the money? He's going to spend it on the drugs. He's got free rent, free money, free drugs, runs out of money, can't wait to next paycheck. He's in your backyard ripping things off. Or he's in a house doing a B&E. Who do you think these people are who are committing the majority of crime? It's the ones that we're. we help. Here's some money. Here's some food. We even got a place where you could safely inject your drugs. That's all you need? You sure? You know, that social work aspect of it also comes in of just trying to make sure everybody's okay. Anything else? You'll take
Starting point is 00:11:29 you want to make them okay. You apprehend every single one of them because they're not doing good. They're a danger to themselves. But we can't do that. Because the hospital, releases them. It's a revolving door and it's getting worse. If it was getting better, I would say the system works, but it's not getting better. So what does that tell you? Take whatever I can give you right now. I'm with the police and crisis team. Are you new to town? No. You've been around for a while? Membership is very happy when we're on because they're able to download some of those calls that are just, they can be ugly to deal with, they can be messy. And so they do appreciate when we come along to to support them and or just take it over.
Starting point is 00:12:10 I believe that. If you see this car around or me around, I am like your helpful neighbor. I will give you a hand. Deal? Okay, have a great day. Bye now. Mental health act is clear, right?
Starting point is 00:12:24 The apprehension if they're a danger to themselves or others. Mental health act. Domest act in history. If there are a danger to themselves or others, uh, they're on the streets. They're a danger to themselves. They're tweaking in front of an injection site.
Starting point is 00:12:41 They're a danger to themselves. But that's not enough. It's not good enough. The guy laying on the side of the road, on the sidewalk. Pretty obvious he's a danger to himself, but that's not good enough. It's not strong enough. If we apprehend them, take them to the hospital, they kick them out. Where do they go?
Starting point is 00:12:59 They get their drugs. Go to all these things that we have given them. Food and heat and injection sites. Free housing. And we call them home. homeless. Why do we call them homeless? It's to take the burden off the top doctors, the health care system. They can't do anything for the homeless people, but they can do something for people who are mentally ill and drug addicted, but they won't. So they call them homeless. They're not homeless. They
Starting point is 00:13:29 don't even want homes. They get kicked out of the shelter because they're pissing in the garbage can, no longer allowed to go in the shelter. Low-cost housing or whatever they call it. Destroy the houses. They destroy the houses. I've seen them. Their drugs are more important to them than anything else. And they'll do anything to get it. Living on the streets. And police apprehend these people every day, all the time, we take them up to the hospital, only to see a doctor release them. And it just keeps on getting worse and worse and worse. Because the system is broken. It doesn't work. We're constantly trying to give these people things.
Starting point is 00:14:19 We're even talking about allowing the illegal drugs to be legal. Reduce sentences. They need to be locked up and they need to be forced to get help. If you went crazy tonight and you walked out your door and you said, I don't want my house, I don't want my children, I don't want anything. And a cop came by, a cop came by, spoke to you. And the cop said, are you a danger to yourself? And you said, no, he's not going to apprehend you.
Starting point is 00:14:45 But don't you want him to apprehend you? Don't you want to be forced to get help? Yeah, I'm going to be like, you better force me. You don't release me from the hospital until I'm better. Hey, bye now. Mental health act is clear, right? The apprehension, if they're a danger to themselves or others, which is extremely broad.
Starting point is 00:15:07 And it takes the pressure off of a police officer to have to make that decision. It should be cut and dried. All of them are apprehended. That's the only way to fix this. Build the institutions that we once had. Stop giving people so much power that are suffering from mental illness. It's nutty. They don't get a choice. You're not allowed to be that sick. Think about it. You got kids. I would want them to force my son to get better. And you're not going to release them from the hospital until he does. We do it with Alzheimer's patients. They're walking around. We apprehend them.
Starting point is 00:15:45 bring them back to wherever we found them. Another institution, they stay there. They stay there to either die or get better. Of course, they're not getting better. But why do we care so much about people with Alzheimer's disease? And we don't really care. I mean, don't kid yourself. We don't care about these people.
Starting point is 00:16:07 If we cared about these people, we would fix these people. But we don't. And it's worse. There's more now than ever. So every government idea, every government act or power has failed. Has it worked. Doesn't work. So extremely stressful, somebody's having a crisis, and now you're going to go put
Starting point is 00:16:26 handcuffs on them. So that interaction can be dangerous, hostile, and can take a very long time. Geez, everybody's smoking up for a scene this morning. Isn't that amazing, right? Committing crimes right in front of police, that's what they do. And we don't do anything about it. We can't. Of course we can.
Starting point is 00:16:47 But for whatever reason, we just, we clean up the government shit. And it is just overflowing. It's overflowing. In my entire career, I can't remember anybody getting help. I always remember apprehending them and then being released from the hospital. This ain't help. We actually reduce the amount of time people go to the hospital. Quite often, you know, if a member goes up to somebody, they're having a bad day and that
Starting point is 00:17:10 purchase says, well, I'm going to walk to the bridge and kill myself. That member may spend one, two, three hours at the hospital. Four, five, six, seven, eight, twelve, an entire shift? That happened to me all the time. I spent the entire shift at the hospital. Doctor couldn't find a bed for a crazy man. And then I drove him after shift from Port Alberti to Victoria. Over time.
Starting point is 00:17:41 There's no beds. There's not enough beds to help these people. Waiting for that person to see a doctor. So usually we're out of there in 30 minutes to 45 minutes. I don't know how he does that and that's great. And that's why I would want that section if I was working at a police station. I would want that section at my police station so he can take, so he can spend the time up at the hospital so I don't because I'm GD.
Starting point is 00:18:07 You're working with three or four members and a couple of you up at the hospital in a night shift. With people that are suffering for mental illness. You're up there forever. This guy's out of the hospital in half an hour. I've never been out of the hospital in half an hour. That's why the section works. That's why the section would be good. How are you doing today, buddy?
Starting point is 00:18:25 Hanging in there? Perfect. Remember me, right? Down on his look. Really? We look at these people as victims all the time, guys. I see it all the time on media. Help the homeless.
Starting point is 00:18:41 You're not helping the homeless. This ain't help. There's only two members. So we do a four on, four off schedule. We only work from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Stupid. Stupid that there's only two members. It's almost like the...
Starting point is 00:18:57 Okay, he said it's successful, I guess it is. Okay, sounds good. You got everything? You're doing all right? What's with a music MPF? Like, why are you doing this? Why you make... Oh, my God. That's unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Homeless. You know, if they're homeless, then the easy fix right is go get a job. Do you know how many jobs are out there right now? Of course, they can't get a job. Why would they get a job? They already got free money, free food, free drugs.
Starting point is 00:19:30 There's no point for them. There's no incentive for them to get a job, to get a life. I think success is getting the person for the client. They help they need when they need it. So if they need...
Starting point is 00:19:49 The help they need when they need it. They need help all the time. But we're not helping. All the time. If you're sleeping on the street, you need help. We shouldn't be allowing that. Nobody in this world should be allowing that. And when I talk about...
Starting point is 00:20:08 You know, when I was a cop, guys, I never once seen a true homeless person. somebody who had lost their job, okay, and are walking on the streets with their kids. We wouldn't allow that. We would be taking them into our homes. They're not homeless. They're mentally ill,
Starting point is 00:20:28 and they're drug addicted. And they need help every minute of every day. But we don't look at it that way. There's phonies out there, guys. The government is made filled with phonies. We need something that's emergent that needs to happen right now or today.
Starting point is 00:20:50 We work our tail off to get them that help within the time frame. If they need it down the road, we work just as hard to make sure those supports are all put into place. And the other simple one is if they wanted to end their life, it's keeping them alive.
Starting point is 00:21:06 You know, giving them another day to get help and make a different choice. That's right. Give them another day to come back onto the street, go back into the engine, where they can do it all over again. Revolving door. And I like that cop.
Starting point is 00:21:22 I like that police officer. I'm not. He's doing his job. He's doing what he's told to do. And he probably is making a difference. I think the music in this video is stupid. All we're doing is maintaining the crazies. We apprehend somebody and they're immediately released.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Who wins? No one wins. You as a civilian loses. You pay for it. The cops aren't winning. The people suffering, they're not winning. It's called a failure. It's a complete failure because the system doesn't fix it. It maintains it. We've made the drug the winner.
Starting point is 00:21:54 No, Clinton, no, we haven't. No. Drug's not the winner. No? Then why is there safe injection sites? Why not safe B&E sites where you can commit B&Es under a controlled environment? So dumb. We can't be effective if the health care system doesn't allow us.
Starting point is 00:22:10 And they don't. I don't know. Why aren't we making it better, right? Because it's not about making it better. It's about applying Band-Aids. And you just watch the homelessness completely grow every year. Do you know what's going down in LA?
Starting point is 00:22:29 Out of control. And it's not fair. It's not fair to the people that are suffering. It's not fair to me. It's not fair to you to have to live in a community. That has that. There's a lot of zombies walking around Port Alburnie. I'm paying taxes.
Starting point is 00:22:47 They ain't paying taxes. I don't like it. Fix these people, apprehend these people. I shouldn't have to put up with it. I shouldn't have to drive by a street and have a guy in front of a safe injection site. Try to sell me drugs. Insanity.
Starting point is 00:23:06 But we support it. We support it. Anyways, I don't know if I'm going to show this video because... some things that are... Anyways, good job, Jamie. And I guess that's it. Subscribe to my channel.
Starting point is 00:23:25 I don't know if I made my point. I don't know why I'm so angry. It just ticks me off when I see stuff like this, and then they put in that... The feel sorry for you music. You know what I mean? Okay, I gotta go. Bye-bye.
