think there is any real centennial downtown so the identity of the people in these areas is surrounding the high school. whereas i might say i'm from suburban chicagover town they're from, people in jefferson or arapahoe county will refer to their high school as their community. of course, the friday night lights big and all that. but they think of that, that is the center of town and the center of their sort of community world. so when you attack the high school, you are attacking the central symbol and idea of who they all are. i think it has more of an impact in communities like that than in a lot of other places in the country who may not be aware of just how much it hits to the heart. in the same way like 9/11 obviously, most terrorist acts take on a symbol of the world trade center or whatever, a symbol of government or whatever it is. these are really attacks on the symbol of their community. >> dave cullen, author of "columbine" thank you so much. we have to take a quick break. we are waiting for a live press conference from police. stay with us. i can't get this place it's such a peaceful place. it's so full of life. a place where the arti

created these jobs, but, unfortunately, the city of chicago says that a food truck cannot be within 200 feet of a restaurant. and you can't be downtown or in any of the neighborhoods where there's a lot of foot traffic. if you're more than 200 feet from any restaurant. so this was a serious challenge and burden for the tamale spaceship and all of the other through trucks in the city. when efforts were made to explain to the city how important the opportunity to start a food truck was to the beginning entrepreneurs, the city did write some new laws but, unfortunately, the actually tightened the screws on the food truck. the fees for parking closer russia went from 250, $500, to 1000, to $2000, four times the fees for an actual health violation. so this anticompetitive law that was in place only protected the restaurants and made life extremely difficult for entrepreneurs like many who are starting to baby businesses and hoping to grow their businesses in the next years our next decades restaurant. spirit that gives us a flavor for what we're talking about. i'm going to turn economy because one of the issues that comes up i think for t
