00:11The ones that think they can use their power to intimidate you just because they've got
00:15that uniform.
00:16And do you know what?
00:17You don't intimidate me.

00:27spread across the country.

01:10We found that he had no gun in his hand and yet he was gunned down.
01:15They're telling us it's lawful killing.
01:17You put two bullets in him to an unarmed man.
01:20Justify that action.
01:22Taken a life that should have been taken.
01:24It's a blood oath.

01:44We shall prove that they killed Mark Duggan.
