Been trying to pin something
to him, but it doesn't work.

:13:04
Trust me.
He's behind all of it.

:13:07
He runs everything
out of his house by the beach.

:13:10
There were no white gangs
in Venice Beach...

:13:12
before Cameron Alexander
and Derek Vinyard hooked up.

:13:14
Alexander found in Derek
his shining prince.

:13:17
Essentially,
he used Derek to recruit...

:13:20
a slew of insecure, frustrated,
and impressionable kids.

:13:24
This kid Vinyard,
he's got a lot of baggage...

:13:27
as you'll see on this tape
we've gotten courtesy of NBC.

:13:37
Earlier today, L.A. County
firefighter Dennis Vinyard...

:13:39
was shot and killed
battling a blaze...

:13:42
at a suspected Compton drug den.
:13:44
We're at the Vinyard home now...
:13:46
and Lieutenant Vinyard's
oldest son Derek...

:13:48
has agreed to talk with us
for a moment.

:13:50
Derek, if you could come
down here please for a second.

:13:53
Look, I know this is tough,
but how do you feel right now?

:13:58
How do you think I feel?
:14:00
-I think it's typical.
-Typical how?

:14:03
Well, this country's becoming
a haven for criminals...

:14:06
so what do you expect?
:14:08
Decent hard-working Americans
like my dad...

:14:10
are getting rubbed out
by social parasites.

:14:13
Parasites?
:14:14
Blacks, browns, yellow,
whatever.

:14:18
I don't understand.
:14:20
You think maybe your father's
murder was race-related?

:14:22
Yeah, it's race-related.
:14:24
Every problem in this country
is race-related.

:14:26
Not just crime.
It's immigration, AIDS, welfare.

:14:29
Those are problems
of the black community...

:14:31
the Hispanic community,
the Asian community.

:14:33
They're not white problems.
:14:34
Aren't those really issues
that deal more with poverty?

:14:37
No. They're not products
of their environments.

:14:41
Minorities don't give two shits
about this country.

:14:42
They come here to exploit it,
not to embrace it.

:14:46
Millions of white Europeans
came here and flourished...

:14:48
within a generation.
:14:50
What the fuck is the matter
with these people?

:14:52
They have to go around
shooting at firemen.

:14:54
What does this have to do
with the murder of your father?

:14:57
Because my father was murdered
doing his job!

:14:59
Putting out a fire in a fucking
nigger neighborhood...
