00:00:00.000
Y'all about to see NYPD bro. Welcome to New York bro. I'm telling you, it's a lot of y'all out there right now.
00:00:10.860
Everybody who's out there, make sure y'all safe. Appreciate everybody who popped up for y'all bro.
00:00:14.920
We want to make sure it's safe. Bro, we're not going to do nothing until it's safe.
00:00:18.840
We got to make sure it's safe. Everybody's good.
00:00:21.420
But, find us already. Hold on. Clear this whole time. Clear this whole time if you could.
00:00:25.400
So he can see. Yeah, look, look, look, look. Oh, they see s*** already, bro. You feel me?
00:00:32.540
I don't gonna lie. It feels so good to be here. Like, it's hometown. Like, it's home court advantage.
00:00:37.920
We got home court advantage. Look at this. Look at this. Look at them. They stand in like a f***ing unity.
00:00:45.240
Yeah, that's, that's, that's really insane. I'm gonna be honest, bro.
00:00:48.120
This little, the amount of cops I saw, it literally reminded me of the protesting, bro.
00:00:51.780
You know, the BLM s***. There's so many cops. It just reminded me of the riots.
00:00:55.780
Bro, you know, God, we gotta, we gotta get right here.
00:01:08.760
But, what goes on from here on out, bro, you feel what I'm saying?
00:01:25.340
I said, these, these, the amount of police air minding me of the protesting.
00:02:51.960
Manhattan, and you can see news helicopters are overhead.
00:02:57.260
The park has been swarmed and basically overrun by people.
00:03:03.680
In fact, subway lines, bus lanes, they're bypassing Union Square.
00:03:10.380
We go, wait a minute, and then it just crashes.
00:03:20.500
Apparently, what had happened here is a popular Twitch streamer was holding a video game giveaway.
00:03:26.900
If you don't know what Twitch is, you're not alone.
00:03:29.840
It's apparently a platform where you can watch other people play video games.
00:03:35.340
Sounds incredibly boring, but obviously it's a thing.
00:04:02.100
Well, Sandra, as you can see, I am standing next to the Union Square subway station entrance,
00:04:07.200
where it looks like it was closed off because of construction.
00:04:11.720
That's what's happening on top of the subway station entrance.
00:04:15.520
There's, I can't even count, countless people up on top of there.
00:04:27.160
they're actually on top of the statue here at Union Square.
00:04:29.460
I've actually got a couple of his followers here with me who can kind of explain to us
00:04:38.780
and tell me why you came out here, what you expected to happen, what did happen.
00:04:44.880
So basically, as you know, it's a Kaisen app, Phantom, all of the AMP members.
00:04:49.100
Oh, I don't know about all of them, but they pulled up, you know, do a little meet and greet,
00:04:56.800
So, from my understanding, PS5s, video game accessories, PCs.
00:05:01.520
But I don't think they will actually give away an actual PC,
00:05:07.120
So I'm pretty sure it's gift cards for them, so then go and get the P5 themselves.
00:05:10.740
They have to assume that you, along with your friends, came out here thinking that you would get some freebies.
00:05:15.020
Not that we're thinking, but there's a chance to.
00:05:18.300
Because, you know, there's so many people, and there's only so much you can give.
00:05:23.940
And they were giving out, but people are, you know, people are being people.
00:05:27.400
There's so many people here, people are pushing around, so you can't really get it organized.
00:05:30.280
Okay, and before we came on, you were telling me that, in your own words,
00:05:35.480
Explain to me what you saw, what you meant by that.
00:05:37.680
Bugging out, like you can see, like, there's no excuse, obviously, for what happened,
00:05:41.220
but, you know, stuff like that just happens all the time.
00:05:51.120
As you can see, Sandra, we've also heard and seen incidents.
00:06:04.920
I'm not sure if that was a fire or some kind of smoke.
00:06:10.280
Again, this was all sparked by a Twitch streamer, a social media influencer.
00:06:16.700
He asked them all to come meet him here at Union Square for what was a PlayStation 5.
00:06:22.780
Apparently, we were also hearing that people showed up only to find out there were no freebies.
00:06:28.700
At one moment, he was live streaming in a van nearby, but he did step out.
00:06:40.040
New Yorkers are obviously outnumbered out here.
00:06:42.400
Stefan, I don't want to interrupt you for one quick second right now because you're looking at live pictures of a car that was literally covered with...
00:06:54.080
Not all New Yorkers, but most New Yorkers are assholes, bro.
00:06:56.540
And if you're from New York, you know what I'm talking about, bro.
00:07:03.640
The vehicle that had Kai Sanat in it, which you can see now was...
00:07:08.640
Looked as though it could have been leaving the area.
00:07:12.300
Um, and that is why you're seeing that crowd there chase after...
00:07:24.580
He was in the crowd for a little bit of time, but clearly this was an out-of-control crowd,
00:07:29.400
and no freebies given away, no giveaway whatsoever getting in the car,
00:07:35.340
but clearly you're looking at a very dangerous situation with this car now driving pretty fast
00:07:39.800
with those people clinging on to the side and top of it.
00:07:58.540
Okay, but the news reporters are making it seem like it's their fault.
00:08:22.840
I'm gonna be honest, bro, and y'all know they're my boys and shit,
00:08:28.980
This whole situation, they didn't know it was gonna be like this,
00:08:43.100
Everyone fucking knew it wasn't just gonna be roses and fucking merry fucking 100% good-to-go green shit.
00:08:53.520
However, Kai, Phantom, MP, they didn't fucking know any of this shit was gonna happen.
00:08:59.440
They didn't know specifically people were gonna get hurt, all these things.
00:09:03.020
So, I'm not defending anybody, but I'm also saying the real shit.
00:09:15.420
Bro, I'm really just trying to help you guys understand.
00:09:18.260
Like, I'm, like, you, you, why are people, I saw someone wild out and fucking throw shit at a locally owned business guy.
00:09:28.600
Like, you think Kai and Phantom, you're like, yo, guys, you know what I mean?
00:09:32.080
Like, who's gonna tell these motherfuckers to start dancing and jumping on people's whips?
00:09:37.540
Like, I'm not saying what they did is 100% in the green.
00:09:42.480
But what I'm saying is, it's, it's, just send me the clips and I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm gonna break it down.
00:09:49.680
Opportunity to see what's going on in Union Square.
00:09:54.280
Obviously, this was a situation that police were not expecting.
00:09:57.320
So, how is it that they start getting the upper hand in, in, in crowd control here?
00:10:03.640
So, they, they call it a level three mobilization.
00:10:07.080
So, there's gonna be cause from every precinct in the city coming there.
00:10:09.740
They have to stage first, and they have to get together, then they have to, at some point, go in and disperse the crowd.
00:10:15.940
Now, someone should be on a bullhorn right now, dispersing this crowd.
00:10:19.660
I don't know if they're doing that yet, but that's usually what happens.
00:10:22.820
Generally speaking, they'll bring in mounted to aid in that effect, and they'll start diffusing the crowd as best they can.
00:10:28.580
It looks like, you know, they're unruly mobbed right now, and they have to bring order to it.
00:10:34.100
In the meantime, they'll have to do with the best they can, what they have.
00:10:36.700
How much of a challenge is this for law enforcement?
00:10:40.720
Look, we've seen similar things on the Jersey Shore.
00:10:56.580
I have a million views on that, including one of a guy who apparently shot a-
00:11:01.440
Oh my god, okay, all right, all right, all right, what the fuck?
00:13:35.460
Chat, what YouTuber did a meetup in New York when it was peak COVID?
00:13:39.000
There's a YouTuber that did a meetup in New York when it was, like, peak, peak COVID.
00:14:01.780
From New York City, after hundreds upon hundreds of folks gathered young people there for a giveaway
00:14:13.100
I do want to continue our coverage on what has been to care for-
00:14:17.920
Uh, Kai Sinat has been a Twitch streamer that is a little bit out of hand, but I-
00:14:57.840
Like, chat, explain this shit, you know what I mean?
00:15:16.420
I can't even imagine how he would work his way out.
00:15:20.180
I don't even think police officers would be able to get-
00:15:23.220
To help him out if that's what he needed at this point.
00:15:29.620
What's the traffic look like around Union Square?
00:15:40.220
Yeah, they're trying to get some sort of order here.
00:15:45.900
If you're in New York, it doesn't matter what part you are.
00:16:17.140
It's genuinely disgusting what they're doing to Donald Trump.
00:17:36.960
So, you know, I've been arrested and I was about it.
00:17:53.760
Like, why do y'all all have young boy pictures?
00:18:13.600
Motherfuckers out here throwing paint and shit.
00:18:59.500
Yo, Kai, you got to come and control your people.
00:19:01.900
Oh, football, football, football, football, football.
00:19:53.800
You know, you see him on the sidewalk all the time that have, like, snacks, like, little
00:20:01.900
Like, this shit really breaks my fucking heart, bro.
00:20:05.000
You got a 60-year-old man trying to break up the riots, and he's getting hit in the back
00:20:09.660
Like, who the fuck in their right mind is really swinging on this guy, bro?
00:20:15.740
Um, and he was saying that he was injured, uh, because he was trying to stop the kids.
00:20:22.400
And they hit his head, his neck, his back, um, the gentleman is in his 60s, um, you know,
00:20:32.920
If anyone could find out, he needs to just make a GoFundMe, bro.
00:20:40.620
He was totally just innocent victim in all this, that he was just doing his job, going
00:20:44.580
about his day, and, uh, his- his business got ransacked there.
00:21:59.200
