:41:01
since Los Angeles
was a frontier township.
:41:03
I actually remember sitting
on my granddaddy's lap...
:41:06
Iistening to stories
about chasing horse thieves...
:41:09
and rustlers into
the Santa Monica mountains...
:41:11
and coming back with a bad guy
tied to his Appaloosa.
:41:14
And when my dad
got into the business...
:41:17
there was black and whites,
traffic signals.
:41:21
But the job hadn't changed.
:41:22
My dad preyed on the predators
that preyed on this city.
:41:27
There was never any doubt
what I was going to be.
:41:30
I was a Police Explorer
by the age of nine.
:41:33
I was a teenager when
the Watts Riots came around.
:41:39
Anyway, I can remember...
:41:40
going out with my dad
on the second night.
:41:43
There was this Woolworth's
that was burning.
:41:46
And I remember these looters
running in and out.
:41:50
Every time they'd run out...
:41:51
my dad would take
a potshot at them...
:41:53
with this deer rifle
he'd brought from home.
:41:56
Anyway, he gave it to me
and this looter ran out.
:41:58
I winged him in the arm
and he ran back inside.
:42:00
That's when
the roof collapsed...
:42:02
and the whole
goddamned building caved in.
:42:05
I guess they all burned up.
Nobody got out.
:42:10
Tell Jimmy to get him down.
He's drunk.
:42:14
That was my dad.
:42:18
Jack says he's drunk again
and wants him off the stage.
:42:21
I will take care of it.
Leave it alone.
:42:25
That's Eldon Perry lll...
:42:28
right there
next to his mom.
:42:30
He'll never be a cop.
He hates cops.
:42:34
I love him.
:42:36
And I thank God
that I was just too busy...
:42:40
to pass on to him
what my granddaddy...
:42:44
passed on to my daddy
and he passed on to me.
:42:46
I was raised up
to be a gunfighter.
:42:49
I made a career of going after
the most dangerous...
:42:53
parasitic sons of bitches
to walk this planet...
:42:55
and I was happier
than the devil in Hell.
:42:57
I'd fabricate evidence
to bring some asshole in...
:42:59
or I'd lie on reports
and to investigators...
