about it. some of you know about it. they will have a press conference a few days from now and address the situation. i was here the last meeting where it two women from each chamber, each were talking and talking, appointing one another to be president. in the end they withdrew that because it was a farce. and you think the world is not looking at it. what type of process do we have in this chamber? what type of process? you reviewed your speech, see if you contribute directly to the constituents of san francisco. there are so many issues out there, important issues. what do you talk about?

this that and the other which makes no sense. imagine if you're traveling from one place to the other and you know where you are going, to whatever. logistics. this is an international city that does not respect the first people. i can give you another 200 reasons, good stuff that we should do and not do thank you very much. >> next speaker. >> good afternoon president chiu and supervisors. people will say and do a thing to get your money even a measly 100,000 like a trust fund. you might need a bodyguard no matter who you are. supervisor man, who can make the city tomorrow better, better like a dream.

make a better turn it green, the supervisor man can. the supervisor man can because he makes is it was better and makes it look good. the city makes everything it takes and i don't know how you do it. talk about all your city wishes and then you are going to make it made my dishes. who can make tomorrow, make it real city clean and you are going to make it better it seems the city man can. the city supervisor woman in there can. people all the world joined hands. join the city love train. all of your brothers over in africa, tell all the folks in egypt,

china, russia japan , don't mrs. train. i will tell supervisor london, don't miss this train. it comes r riding through the city. city love train. >> next speaker. >> tom gill berti (sounds like) -- i want to thank (indiscernible) for the rearrangement. this may be a work in progress; for some i can see the overhead, use the clock and see the mic.

last session i was here with december before we took a break. it was mentioned that if you have a two-term life here, you will spend 20 days listening to us. mathematically that adds up to one day listening the public comment and 146 days something else before the next day public comment. it is not too much of a burden. the other thing about public comment is, well back ago a gal that appeared spoke about not changing the specifics of a certain part of what we were trying to do here. and i called up the next monday to find out what she was talking about. one person that answered the phone you heard that on public comment. do not listen to public comment. we just ignore public comment. that night on national

television, abc, the next morning on national television, supervisor wiener's mini housings were up. next point, talking about reading the environmental impact reports. one of the things that you won't discover on the environmental impact report is anything about noise because it is not fair. and with eight seconds left i want to thank you for the two-minute time. i look forward to spending a little bit more time with you. thank you very much. >> next speaker. >> good evening. john -- san francisco. something you might want to think about. i call it the fanaticism of

the one only truth. eventually would become so passionate about the cause we no longer can think straight. it becomes our identity. we cannot afford to lose it. we do not have any other. of course one person's opinion might be another's wrong. we believe ours is the only one. and all the others are a threat and must be eliminated at all costs. there is more than one truth; each can stand on its own, does not need to be a threat to one another depending on the degree of perspective. for the universe to work that must be compromise. you have no legitimate right to

have it all your own way. we call that fanaticism, that can lead to violence. thank you for listening. >> next speaker. >> i am a resident of the north market neighborhood, around city hall here. i want to welcome our two newest supervisors. and one whose district borders in my neighborhood. i hope you do well with it. the previous resident was supervisor avalos. i do represent -- i try to work with the voters of that neighborhood

consumers of government service and taxpayers. that group is not particularly well-organized. we try to piggyback our needs in the back of more well organized groups. there is a difference in our positions although subtle it has an impact on the outcome of services. i appreciate the discussion about the thirteenth amendment; there was a long period in history without an amendment of the constitution at that time; there was a divergence between provision of service and the needs of the time. we are in a similar time now. you have the louis armstrong airport, jfk. what happened to the george w.

bush sewage treatment plant? >> next speaker. good evening ladies and gentlemen and the world it's almost like hollywood. i'm going to start my own television show, city hall. it's not silly. a lot of things going city hall, racism, discrimination, a lot of things. they even draw big -- here at city hall. right now i'm trying to get to something serious. i want to thank the new supervisors, particularly the supervisor of this district. i'm here to make a notice to the city, the world that we here in san francisco, the african-american black

negroes are in a state of emergency. we are in a state of emergency because our population has gone down. district 5, 10, 6, which have a lot of the african-americans in there, i see them coming together bringing this issue to the fore. someone like myself files an injunction to find out what the problem is that city hall. you are not paying attention to something they study for many years. you admit that you are doing it. you have the mayor creating another monster without the community participation, without really seeing what happens to district 5. i know our supervisors will bring that up. she is also involved with the migration.

you did not know that. she brought it to mayor newsom to do a study. that's all the time of got? thank you. >> thank you next speaker. >> (video playing)

it is one thing to unanticipated death because of old age or sickness. it is quite another to experience a sudden violent death of a loved one. >> why do we hear from the next speaker and then go back to you. >> good evening. i will like to thank the 11 supervisors paying attention. i'm one of your bosses.

listen real good. lance armstrong has proven to be a disgrace. he finally told the truth i am waiting along with others whether the city attorney herrera and sean -- will start telling the truth. we want to know what the real residence was in 2008, don't do the lance armstrong because it did not work for him. mayor lee, what would you do about -- and alvarez. number three, is the board of supervisors and the mayor's office will support the reason federal child porn investigation and prosecution in california? the answer is no.

are you going to support child porn? put your money where your mouth is. next california, you know it is spelled california. is coming to san francisco? only you know the answer. the last headline in the chronicle, sf scientist resigns after faking data. truth is very elusive in san francisco. sooner or later people that lie will pay the ultimate price. lance armstrong, even i loved you. he disappointed me.

you proved me right. >> thanks next speaker. >> if you could good please pull the microphone. i'm a mother who lost a child to homicide. (video) it is one thing to anticipate a death because of old age or sickness. what another to experience a sudden violent death of loved one. 68 homicides last year.

that is what mothers are left with every year. (shots fired) >> since 2004, san francisco has experienced an unprecedented number of homicides. (sirens) 60% of the homicide victims are people of color.

their loved ones, living in neighborhoods of scarcity and elect must deal with personal strategy what are the same time facing the violence -- >> thank you very much. let's hear from our next speaker. >> next speaker please. >> am i able to put this up? >> yes. >> jesus said my judgment is true for i am not alone. i am the father that sent me. the testimony of two men, true,

deuteronomy. at the mouth of two witnesses or three witnesses, he worthy of death will be put to death but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death. found in john chapter 8 by the way. i am want to bear witness of myself and the father that sent me bears witness of me. do you realize what jesus is doing here? in the fifth chapter he said search the scriptures for in them you think you have eternal life. he said, there has never been one born of non-virgins as great as john the baptist. he is talking of himself because at the end of the eleventh chapter of matthew he said i am meek and lowly in heart.

i am least in the kingdom of heaven. jesus christ he who speaks of himself seeks his own glory. jesus christ in a class all by himself. when he races the data that might happen november 10, 1335 days into the new sabbatical cycle. promoting homosexuals, which is wicked and evil, not only homosexuals, child molesters, all the unsaved. >> thank you very much. thank you. let's hear from the next speaker.

>> i am not a cheerleader but i am on the football team. happy birthday to martin luther king. and also the 49ers, playin atlanta falcons. atlanta georgia is the new gay capital. what i would like to say also to the board of supervisors and all of you all is that i heard that the supervisor in district 8 talk about twin peaks. i still stay in the -- (indiscernible) the good thing about,

we have two gay cities, for the super bowl. what i want to say to you, remember bare rust, harvey milk. bare ruston (sounds like) a black gay man. i believe the day would come when all of god's children, (indiscernible) (indiscernible) times have changed. i hope that you can get the gay pride (indiscernible) and these two supervisors. hopefully you can be there too.

and speak on that date. thank you. >> thank you. >> any members of the public wish to speak in general public comment. seeing none it is close. >> items 33-40 are considered for immediate and unanimous adoption. if an board member request discussion that would be separate. roll call. >> items 33-40. >> supervisor campos: aye >> supervisor chiu: aye >> president: aye >> supervisor cohen: aye >> supervisor farrell: aye >> supervisor kim: aye >> supervisor mar: aye >> supervisor wiener: aye >> supervisor yee: aye

>> we came to seven straight about 10 years ago. -- 7th street about 10 years ago. the environment is huge. it is stronger than willpower. surrounding yourself with artists, being in a culture where artists are driving, and where a huge amount of them is a healthy environment. >> you are making it safer.

push, push. that is better. when i start thinking, i see it actually -- sometimes, i do not see it, but when i do, it is usually from the inside out. it is like watching something being spawned. you go in, and you begin to work, excavate, play with the dancers, and then things began to emerge. you may have a plan that this is what i want to create. here are the ideas i want to play with, but then, you go into the room, and there maybe some fertile ideas that are becoming manifest that are more interesting than the idea you had initially set out to plan. so there has to be this openness for spontaneity. also, a sense that regardless of the deadline, that you have tons of time so the you can keep your

creativity alive and not cut it off and just go into old habits. it is a lot like listening. really listening to watch what is going to emerge. i like this thing where you put your foot on his back. let's keep it. were your mind is is how you build your life. if you put it in steel or in failure, it works. that works. it is a commitment. for most artists, it is a vacation and a life that they have committed themselves to. there is this notion that artists continue to do their work because of some kind of the external financial support. if that was taken away, artists would still do their art. it is not like there is a

prerequisite for these things to happen or i will not do it. how could that be? it is the relationship that you have committed to. it is the vocation. no matter how difficult it gets, you are going to need to produce your art. whether it is a large scale or very small scale. the need to create is going to happen, and you are going to have to fulfill it because that is your life.
