straight through ewing's hometown of leavenworth. after denver, hair plans sort of got a little fuzzy because there was something just to the west of denver that they had not quite figured out how to deal with. by one historian's calculation, at least 12 members of congress received shares in the lp&w totaling more than $1.5 million, while secretary of the interior, caleb smith, assistant secretary john usher, and the commissioner of indian affairs, william p. dole, collected promises of more than $1 million combined. but ultimately thomas ewing was partially thwarted, withheld from abraham lincoln, the railroad lawyer, who had long since been persuaded that the natural route for the transcontinental railroad would run just north of this place. up from omaha right up the platt river valley. if you've ever driven along i-80, you notice it's very flat. in fact as i have driving up here today, i remembered the opening pages of my aunt anilla where her young hero looking across his home and thinking of nebraska, there's a lot of it. when

i think the block that was next between leavenworth and jones is 940 people and i agree with what member schreiber said, that's too much population at this point for us to consider moving and if that would require moving the boundary on the other side from market to mission, i would be reluctant to do that as well. the motivation behind this, it's the context of 100-some person move that would allow another s.r.o. to say. that's the spirit behind the proposal. >> in pilpel. >> this puts me in a difficult position. i want to put population in three if possible but i'm not crazy going south of market. i have gone back and forth on that. i think on balance, i would rather stay at market street for the 36 border east of third. and if that passes, so be it. and further imbalancing three and so i'm not with the hotel move. >> thank you. any other discussions? ok, proposal on the table is 128 population move. d-6 deviation becomes .96, d-3 is negative 3.84. >> is that correct? >> yes. >> miss tidwell? >> yes. >> mr. schreiber? >> yes. >> mr. pilpel? >> no. >> miss mondejar? >> yes. >> miss lam?

we still count it as a shooting because he said he was shot at turk and leavenworth, but i think the guy's mom pretty much knows what is going on. he is not really cooperative, but that number is a little skewed now unfortunately. as i mentioned, and arrests. of 49% -- up 49%. remember, you cannot compare apples and oranges with us. we still do apartments. some of the hotels -- most of ours is retail organized-crime set -- theft. property crime has petered out a little bit, but we are still a little above city average, about 3%. that is as of last week. the shooting monday -- we are going to count it, but it needs to be investigated a little bit more. we have 554 referrals to the community justice center. 554 citations. last year, we were out about 1000 for the year. a lot of it was staffing. trying to defer some of the really lower ones where a person might be a first-time offender or the infractions, some of the ones that do not meet the criteria. something we are trying to do is to streamline things like property on the sidewalks where we can do a short form so she can bundle some

nation who don't abide by it which is why scalia still has a job on the bench instead of a cell in leavenworth. the point is americans don't have to look much farther than justice scalia to see that our supreme court is in trouble it's a court the revels in its power and doesn't shy away from overturning laws passed by we the people and giving brand new rights to scalia's fat cat buddies in their corporations it's a court that has no regard for ethics and routinely acts in a way that degrades the objectivity and wisdom of the supreme court and it's a court that's lost the faith of the american people recent new york times poll showed only forty four percent of americans approve of the job the supreme court is doing down from sixty six percent in the one nine hundred eighty s. when scalia joined the court so how do we solve this problem but one way is for congress to assume its constitutionally mandated role as the regulator of the high court and the hold my breath on that in the short term however here's a real easy way to restore some faith in the high court just three words impeach antonin s

you look, he had been in both the state penitentiary in illinois as well as serving two stints in leavenworthnsas, in the u.s. penitentiary there. he was serving 20 years. i'm sure some of that had to do with the fact of him being a repeat felon. and it shows how long that he was serving. so he was convicted in february of 1960. and admitted to the state penitentiary on march 17, 1960, and he was supposed to get out of the state penitentiary in 1980, and if he served good time, which he did not, because he escaped, he would have gotten out for good behavior march 16th of 1975, and these last columns are for discharge and violation of rules. and this is where it shows that at one time he had been admitted to the state hospital in fulton. and that was in 1966. but then on april the 23rd of 1967, he escaped from the missouri state penitentiary. next we're going to look at the record of escapes for the time period when james earl ray left the missouri state penitentiary. he escaped from the missouri state penitentiary. you can kind of look at the book here and look at all the escapes from 1965 th

to say that in the question in my mind it should be in every american small is why we're here in leavenworth loyal years into this business why more americans down the highway in a single year than a million killed and every terrorist attack that's ever occurred against this country why are we doing this why are we spending billions of dollars interfering with perhaps even disassembling the constitution doing all these things for our security when our securities in pretty good shape except for domestic terrorists want to shoot us in movie theaters. well yeah i guess you could say that our domestic security is in pretty good shape in that sense but they're still expanding that essay right there both in this massive have you talk believe about the surveillance powers that are expanding all the time but how come congress doesn't know more or doesn't ask for more you know why is that the it's such a rarity to see people like senator ron wyden that actually want this kind of information out of the n.s.a. to have to tell us how many times they spidering americans e-mail it's the herd mentality for
