I feel like we owe it to the people we lost and those that survived to watch and listen to their stories and honor them and remember them .. I cant imagine the actual horror and the feeling of helplessness being in that situation .. how frightened they all were .. its so hard to watch the ones tell the stories I can hardly to this day listen to the last phone calls from the planes .. I watched the 2nd plane hit in real time and I even tho I live in California and always have I couldnt even move I couldnt tear myself from the TV I remember exactly what I was doing when that moment happened and I had to go to work at my little burger joint place and I asked my boss did he see the news he said yea I said I cant do this today he agreed and we closed and went home I didn't even know how to function and I wasnt even directly affected by it I had friends in New York but they weren't close to the center so I knew they were safe but my god the hurt that carries on is alot and I hope the people affected know that even across the country we prayed for you and we remember you and I know for me I always will

USA has more homicide detective's than doctor's probably...
@glitchhopThis old man as Hardcore af. Fun fact: We both quit alcohol around 1992! An Amazing American.🇺🇸
@tylerleavitt2715Another fantastic interview of a very interesting man. Great work, Mark.
@bobisonlineYeah no sh t the government released the drug and the movie to cause mayham.
@angie-4444Best interview I’ve ever seen. So many emotions during the 9/11 part. This man is a legend.
@melaniefinch342Virker som et ordentlig menneske med sin egen personlighet og med en fungerende hjerne!!🌸🤗🌸
@hildrannveighelseth8749Pete the Cop is dope. He reminds me of my father-in-law: Italian New Yorker and no bullshit. He knows how the Marxists have destroyed NYC and want to destroy the rest of Western Civilization. What a shame.
@iananderson4822❤❤❤❤❤ Officer, you may not think so, but you are a hero to your core. God Bless you!
@sandraschoenfeldpleasestay5398This guy kicks unbelievable levels of ass
@Flashh13049:01 Profound statement! ❤
@nkha2338:58 I'm really trying to hold back tears. I can't imagine the energy and strength it took to get through it
@nkha23Not even halfway through and this man's recollections are effortlessly holding my attention
@nkha23I love this too. As an alcoholic in recovery without experiencing what he has. It was inspirational
@walterwhiteboy4257One of the best I have seen.
@AndreaRycroftI wonder if this guy had a book. I love the old school NYC cop thing. The stuff he’s seen.
@walterwhiteboy4257Excellent commentary. Kudos to Peter Panuccio. He should run for office.
@bonitaharrison4736Would love to hear this guy's opinion on Mamdani
@ayjayare101It's weird how the background of this video looks like a plume of smoke behind him.
@KendraStarrrrr“There’s a lot of good people here that don’t want it to be like this” that’s a fact. And we aren’t leaving.
@markedgoodThe end of his tale is the sad truth.
@markedgoodTitus Welliver's best role to date
@Internet_Freaksome of the stuff this guy has commented about black people and race in interviews makes me sick, but he tells a good story, he's extremely NewYork-straightforward and likeable
@tristangrigsby8377Hit by a train. “Covid related”. And people wonder why the covid death toll was as high as it was. Keep your masks on and stay inside. Be controlled. God what a scam.
@MattWilliams-x7v90 murders a year one precinct? How Many murders total that year in all of Manhattan?
@JamieBurlington-d3lThanks Regan Bush Clinton and the rest for bringing all that coke in. Just say No yo
@JamieBurlington-d3lThe son they didn't worry about: a survivor, sane, ever-persevering. That pioneer spirit! Thank you for your service. And for caring about the murdered person no matter who they were, no matter who wasn't there for them.
@danitacathWOW! Incredible! This is the REAL!
@darlenebruhl1236RU kidding me? BedStuy is still a disaster.
