@meiko_kaji unfortunately that is not the case. Police historically and to the present have not served those communities and have been an instrument of state violence against them.
@@raevenrises7595 if you believe the police are part of a secret agenda to oppress minorities that would mean each officer is complicit and aware of that agenda. I don’t believe that to be the case. If you do, I’d love to hear what data you have to support your argument though.
Show me a community's of In America consistently tagged as epicenters if criminal behaviors without acknowledging the structural history, racism of those nbhrd's being starved, of resources.
its nice to work with law enforcement, but at what point is it a conflict of interest? if these 'benevolent leaders' commit a crime - one might assume the LVPD may treat these folks much differently then others...which is not how it is supposed to work.
This a16z podcast feels more like a promotional piece than a genuine discussion about policing. It glosses over serious issues like systemic racism, over-policing, and the true root causes of crime, instead pushing tech solutions without addressing the underlying problems. Praising Las Vegas PD without acknowledging the negative impacts on marginalized communities makes it hard to take their narrative seriously. A more balanced and critical approach is needed for meaningful change.
I’m an Asian man who lived in North Las Vegas for ten years. Systemic racism is easy to fix if blacks learn how to control their impulses and behave themselves accordingly. The Chinese faced discrimination in California for decades. We got over it, and now we’re thriving in America. You gotta drop the victim mentality and do better. Las Vegas is a great city if you’re a productive member of society. But if you’re a criminal, drug dealer, gang member, or a thief, it’s not the best place to live because you’re held accountable unlike other cities like LA and Portland.
I'm black and I don't buy this. The most reliable indicator of violent crime in a given community is the proportion of fatherless households. The break down of the black family that started around 1950 is the primary problem in my opinion. Systemic racism may exist but the violent crime rates are much higher. Not just the rate of convictions so it's clearly not the root of the problem.
@@roninbruh While I agree that adopting a victim mentality doesn't help anyone progress, it's important to acknowledge that systemic racism and discriminatory attitudes still exist today. Just as Chinese Americans faced significant racism in the late 1800s and early 1900s, marginalized communities continue to experience prejudice and unequal treatment. One might hope that lessons from past injustices would inspire solidarity and a collective effort to address ongoing inequalities. Many of the challenges faced by African Americans and other marginalized groups are rooted in systemic issues that limit opportunities and visibility. Instead of dismissing these concerns, we should work together to create legislation and initiatives that promote fairness and equality for all communities. BTW, you're above victim mentality, white people are not above abusive mentality, realize that in any moment the white friends you have are systematically trained to colonize and exile you.
I’ve reached the point where I don’t need to even watch you gronks anymore, every story is half a story, an odd dog whistle, a setup for a punchline. We know the story boys, we know who you are and your agenda. Not everyone is dumb enough to believe you.

So happy Marc and Ben are releasing stuff frequently again
Never would’ve expected to live in a world where you are criticized for trying to have a safer community.
China has safe communities and they also have zero privacy or freedom. It’s a trade off…
People have different ideas of what safety means. Most minorities and poor people feel less safe with police around, not more safe.

Ben, you're amazing! I'm a Las Vegas resident. Thanks for saving lives!
Thank you for doing this Ben & Marc.
Best video in a long while - thx Ben
Thanks for not arresting me anytime I've been to Las Vegas, very appreciative.
Techology and Ben's donation is a wonderful gift to Las Vegas! KUDOS to LVMP for running a great operation. Tech Crunch is not so great anymore. :)
I'm slowly starting to love this podcast, gonna be part of my weekly cycle.
Kevin and Mike are solid. Strong Men. Protectors.
Amazing work Ben. Would love to read more about how you are helping them.
Very reassuring,
my family frequents Vegas and it’s always enjoyable for us.
Las Vegas is Awesome
Wow! This is amazing
The use of drones and AI in policing sounds pretty dystopian. 1984/Black Mirror future coming for us
Didn’t expect both cops to have gravelly voices
Love this! 💙
Great job attacking the evil do'ers' arguments straight ahead. Always the trailblazers.
Great job! NOW: how best to transfer that into every other city?
decades of libertarians
Ben, you gotta let the dudes talk. Guide, but don't interrupt and make noises while they are talking.
Could McMahill sound any more like a cop?
I want to put my Hotel Now app HQ in Vegas.
That is a very strategic approach.
We have the tools. THIS is surveillance.
Las Vegas is the most disturbing city in America. A whole city built around sin. Honestly, a horrible place imo. Still love the podcast though!
And a corrupt and brutal police force.
29:55 For my Tech People
Would have saved half an hour if I would have seen this first
Techcrunch - Ben Horowitz’s cozy relationship with the Las Vegas Police Department aided a16z portfolio company Skydio
Ben loves to interrupt him lol
Good podcast but I didn't need his clarification every 5 seconds
So no we have thick thighs and tech saving lives... Love to see it
Thick thighs and tech guys
Show me a community's of

Protect my business Hotel Now and we will HQ in Vegas. But for full transparency, we compete with Airbnb.
