:47:02
But it's quickly gaining notoriety
as a major crime center.
:47:05
It's a record year for homicides
in the Vehicle City.
:47:07
According to the FBI, Flint now has
the highest violent crime rate in America.
:47:11
... crime rate is one of the highest
on the continent.
:47:13
A big part of the problem
is there aren't enough jail cells...
:47:16
for all the criminals.
:47:28
- I got it.
- I don't think that target would have lived.
:47:32
I got two out of the ring there.
:47:34
- You got three out the ring, son.
- Yes, sir.
:47:37
Where is my third one?
:47:40
Here's two here.
Where's the third one out of the ring?
:47:43
Okay, that one's out of the ring.
:47:45
Your biggest problem
is your barrel length.
:47:47
We usually tell them that probably
their best protection for home...
:47:52
is the short-barreled shotgun.
:47:56
- Why is that?
- It's easy to handle...
:48:01
and if you do have to shoot,
you're not liable to miss.
:48:05
And when they hear that pump gun...
:48:08
when you rack that,
there's no other sound like it.
:48:11
Usually you don't have to fire it.
:48:14
They get moving pretty fast.
They'll move away.
:48:17
They don't like the sound.
:48:19
They know exactly what you have.
:48:21
You don't have to say,
''I have a gun in my hand.''
:48:23
They know it'll really tear them up.
:48:28
With higher unemployment
creating more crime in Flint...
:48:30
General Motors and the United Auto
Workers' union came up with a novel idea.
:48:35
Train the ex-auto workers to be prison
guards and give them jobs in the jails...
:48:39
now filling up
with their former line mates.
:48:42
It's kind of sad in a way
to see somebody that you know...
:48:44
or had done something with
on the outside being in jail...
:48:47
or sentenced to prison
or something like that.
:48:51
But I guess it's, you know...
The theory goes, you play, you pay.
:48:56
And you get over it.
:48:57
I'd have a possibility to move on.
