11:10 pm
aggressive. the difference, it does come after the exchange of artillery fire acrossed the demilitarized zone. the imposition of this deadline from north korea saying it would attack again. it denies having attacked in the first place on thursday, but it would take a military strike unless the loud speaker broadcasts ended. what we have is a situation where both militaries are on high alert. the south korean military and u.s. military. there are 28,000 troops stationed here. this is defining the way in which they monitor the goings on in the north. the situation still attains where south korea is still broadcasting these messages which north korea protests against so loudly even while the talks are going on. we wait to see if there is any successful conclusion. >> thank you.

11:18 pm
51%. >> sanders has been criticized for not doing enough outreach to the african-american community. here in south carolina, he met with 50 clergy members, many black and tried to bring his message to them. the crowd here, 3100 people, was diverse in terms of their age. as we talked to them, they were diverse in terms of what they did with their backgrounds. this is an early primary state. it will be the first state in the south to weigh in on who the democratic nominee should be for the president in 2016. there is still six months. so the berney sanders campaign has time to build relationships here in this very red state. some of the top republicans were in ohio today. they are there for defending the american dream summit in columbus.

11:20 pm
11:22 pm
11:23 pm
with the military's elite. but this week it became the stuff of little girl's dreams. the first two women graduating from georgia. the possibility that women in combat on front lines could happen. tonight, john begins our deeper look. ♪ the rockets red glare >> the stars and stripes in honor of 96 soldiers. >> how about a round of applause. >> two of them pioneering woman. they are the first female members of the u.s. military ever to make it through the demanding ranger school at fort bening, georgia. family and friends on hand, treated to a display of physical
11:24 pm
fitness and agility. they spoke about their achievements before today's ceremony. >> it was always just about trying to get the best training that the army could offer us to be the best officer for my soldiers. >> we came to school skeptical, with our guards up, the haters and nay sayers. but we didn't come with a chip on our shoulder like we had anything to prove. >> just like the male colleagues, hiked miles, parachuted, undergone weeks of combat. >> i got you! >> no special treatment, pushing back on-line trash talk. >> this was no change to the standards. students not only met the
11:25 pm
standards, they passed their patrols and peers. that's why they will be ranger graduates. >> while they are pioneers, they won't be fighting on the front lines any time soon. that's because military rules don't allow them to. since 2013 the military opened up a hundred thousand jobs to women. but there are still about 200,000 jobs that remain closed to them. the defense secretary is reviewing this policy and says he's on course to make a decision. >> on october 1 the services will provide a report to the chairman requesting any exception to this policy. and i will review the services recommendation and make a final determination on that issue by the end of this year. >> reporter: but that's for another day. for now, the nation is celebrating two new heros, women making history and laying the ground work for women like them
11:26 pm
who will follow. >> with me in the studios is tanya, a retired u.s. army captained drill instructor. and in washington d.c., a sergeant from the marine corps. if we are no longer talking about if but when, when will we see women on the front lines in combat roles? >> what's interesting is that women are already engage in combat. >> i had conversations with women who tell me the same thing. so officially. >> that began in 2013 when the secretary of defense said i'm prepared to support this going forward. the training of these soldiers who just passed the ranger course in the united states army and their successful completion is a major, major step forward. it is exceptional.
11:27 pm
it demonstrates that with opportunity and with good training, that they excelled and mastered in, that they have proven their mettle. >> some have carried a gun and discharged their weapon. if they are there and doing it, why are we still having this conversation in. >> there is a difference between operational support, combat, working in combat and fighting in combat. we haven't been kicking down the doors, we haven't been in hand to hand combat in fallujah like the marines and soldiers were. we have no long term data of sustained combat operations and the impact on women. women have great significant attrition rates compared to men. women get upset with that.
11:28 pm
but that's the biological difference. there is a reason we have not been in the infantry up to this point. even if we were to lower a standard, the fact of the matter is women will be geared to be at that bottom 2 to 3% because you are competing with the best men. all men i know never settle for the minimum standard. they push themselves. that will get passed down to the women. what are the women going to do because they can't run as fast as a man? there is no way biologically they can. >> is it american women? there are 13 countries that already allow women in combat roles including france, germany. >> in combat roles. >> if our coalition partners have women on the lines, does it not seem disingenuous to not put
11:29 pm
forward every man and woman? >> the women in canada have not been on the fronted line. same with israelis. women like myself are trained in multiple weapons. but we have not been in fallujah, we have not had face to face, hand to hand combat. no woman has had to do that unless it was in a defensive measure, that's the difference. >> i'm going to push back here and say that actually, since granada in 1989 women have been engage in progressive combat type activity. >> i agree. >> in panama, military police women were engaged in combat urban warfare. >> very good. >> let her finish. >> we have had medics demonstrate their bravery and
11:30 pm
valour under fire, one medic, female medic received a silver star in iraq. >> very good. >> we have had marines and u.s. women accompany special forces on patrols with these female engagement teams because they needed women when they come across civilian women and be culturally appropriate. they are risking and getting additional training to do this. it's combat training. >> i need to make my point very clear. >> let me ask this question then. if what both of you are saying is true, then what happened in georgia with these women passing the ranger test? is it just window dressing? >> first of all, because they passed the ranger training does not make them rangers. >> they are ranger qualified. >> no, they are not. >> they are ranger qualified. >> may i finish?
11:31 pm
they got the tab. they have to go through 75th ranger training battalion. they have to go through more tests. this has been identified as a leadership school by the army, you are aware of that, kathryn, you know that's true. women have been in combat. when you are talking about special forces, i want to ask the captain, can she answer how high the attrition rate is for women right now? >> let her answer the question. >> 167% next to the men. how do we justify pushing these women until they break? is the government going to pay for the disability? >> she posed a question. >> what i would like to say about this is the fact that a lot of women are out of the
11:32 pm
military because they have denied opportunities. >> what percentage? >> there's been a lot of disengagement. and because they know they can see -- >> do you disagree with the percentage? >> i don't know where she's quoting her data. i would like to see her data. i don't want to get down into the data. >> that's the problem. nobody wants to admit what's happening. >> captain, sergeant. >> i'm a gunnery sergeant, not a sergeant. >> in order to have a conversation about women and combat, we have to have an ordinarily conversation. captain, i will let you continue. and then gunnery sergeant, i will be back with you. >> the fact is that welcome pose
11:33 pm
almost 15% of the force. the lowest utilization of women in the military is in the marine corps. the highest percentage of women being utilized is in the air force. the army has taken a major step forward here and said we are going to give these officers an opportunity to demonstrate their skills. the fact is you cannot complete the mission now without women on the battle field. and because of the nature of asymmetrical warfare and the way it is now in the 21st venture risker women are engage in combat. why don't we give them the official designation that they so rightly deserve when they demonstrated their mastery of these skills. >> gunnery sergeant, i will ask you this question. the question is do you believe that these two women should receive any special recognition for what they managed to accomplish? or do you believe this is all something in which washington is
11:34 pm
trying to be politically correct? >> i completely agree this is politically correct. there has been no combat evidence that we need women in the front line on special forces. i'm not debating the captain on our efficient u.s. i was a marine for 20 years. i was in the field with the infantry. i get this. i also carried those packs that are 120 pounds and at times your body breaks with. i want the women to stop saying that the data doesn't matter, it does. i know 29-year-old female who needs both of her hip replace. i know a combat engineer, she went infertile for six months. every day she had to carry a hundred plus pounds. what happened? she could never recover because her body could never rest. and with that said, she became infertile. at the end of the day, women have to show they can sustain that in special forces and we
11:35 pm
are going to put them in a disability ranking doing that? i think that's completely irresponsible. >> let me show you what the american public feels. we asked how do you feel about women in combat. 66% support the idea of women serving in ground units and fighting as well. 26% said they do not, 8% aren't sure. captain, are you concerned that members of the military watching this debate between the two of you right now, because you are on the front lines of this issue, are going to say see, i told you so, i told you they weren't ready. >> here's the point. the point is they are ready. they have been serving. they have been engaged in combat. >> so the gunnery sergeant is saying they can't hold up. >> she's saying that. but these women in georgia, they are colleagues, they are fellow students that i passed because
11:36 pm
she helped me. captain helped me pick up the weapon and carry a saw weapon when he couldn't carry it. what i'm saying, what i'm also saying is this isn't a pc thing that has been suggested here, that this went through a rigorous review process within the pentagon. and let me make a note of when former chief of staff of the united states army arrived into iraq to meet with the troops, when he was picked up at the airport, he was put into an armored humvee. when he looked up on the roof, a specialist 4 looked down on him, and said i'm here to protect you sir, and it was a female. he realized that the army had changed. this wasn't some kind of pc overtour. it was based upon their performance, their bravery,
11:37 pm
their valour, their ability to fight under terrible conditions, difficult and challenging conditions. and now it is simply a progressive element that we have witnessed since 1945 when women couldn't fight combat. in 1992, i was personally involved in that when i worked on the house armed services committee. now we have women flying in combat aircraft. >> off topic. >> i have got 30 seconds left. i want to get this balanced. gunnery sergeant. >> that's not the topic in 1945. i have shot from a turret from the top of a humvee. that's not new. until we can assure these women are not medically discharged and right now the va can't keep up
11:38 pm
with the women, it is medical that is their biggest issue they have to deal with. >> thank you very much, both of you. >> it's incredible that some other women -- >> thank you for taking a deeper look tonight. >> thank you. still ahead, topless women, not a great combination. why the times square plaza spent so much to build could be torn up. and there is no stopping uber. just how much the taxi app plans to make this year. straight ahead.
11:41 pm
>> a superintendent got a raw deal. he killed a security guard and then himself. he was a labor department employee who had been fired. downing was a former economist who believed he was fire in 1999 for blowing the whistle on corruption and waste. they work for tips, some in costume, others topless. they are allowed to accept tips when they pose for pictures. officials are looking for ways to reign them in, trying to keep the tourists from being turned off. >> reporter: martin is a taxi driver captured this in the 1970s, a no go area.
11:42 pm
the red light district attracted pimps and prostitutes. the naked cowboy and naked cowgirl have become trademark attractions since new york city's war on crime transformed the area into one of the most visited places in the world. about 300,000 people pass through the area nicknamed the crossroads of the world. >> it's gorgeous down here. >> they like to bring their granddaughter to visit. >> this was the red district of new york city, prostitution, sex acts, it was very bad. i think they did a fantastic job. >> the disney store lines the block. now it's the so-called painted
11:43 pm
ladies. they carve out turf. >> the naked cowboy has been here for quite a few years. according to the law, a female can be topless anywhere a man can be. >> we don't dance. we are entertainers. just like everybody else in times square. the costume characters, the superheros. naked cowboy, painted lady. >> constitutional rights need to be respected. it's a problem that officials say needs better regulations. they should just tear up the pedestrian plaza which cost $27 million under the previous administration. the mayor said he would consider it and he started a task force that will deliver a report by late september or early october. >> i don't like the idea they are thinking about getting rid of the plaza so this can happen.
11:44 pm
>> claire took her top off in support of the women in favor of keeping the pedestrian plaza. >> this isn't from anger, this is from fun. one woman said please put your blouse back on. but two other women started cheering and smiling. >> tourists are divided. >> i didn't have an issue with it. >> i came from vegas last week, it's the same there. new york, it's the same, l.a. it's the same. i don't like it. >> the stakes are high. last year more than 56 million tourists visited new york city, generating over $57 billion in total economic impact. thousands of antiabortion activists dissenting on planned parenthood sites across the
