lewis was just an old friend so there are a lot of reasons to believe that officer lewis should vfed more impaschality, to behave in a manner that reflected good judgment. that said, his behavior shows worst judgment than hurley's case. he is involved in a greater number of videos. he comes it with more material himself and his cutting in those videos is more outrageous than what that that you see with respect to hurley. particularly on the nine videos. to really -- it is really very over the top material. over the course of a year and a half, he thought this was great fun. there is no indication at any point he thought this was a bad idea. it is clear he thought this was going to be a retirement party. he thinks he has done nothing wrong. in that regard, i think because his conduct is more severe than hurley in the videos, his penalty should be higher. than hers. in particular, i think one of the things that you need to take it is the way in which -- take into account is the way in which he chose to take things that happened in the videos and put them up to an even higher level and

i am the mother of james lewis, ok? he is coming up next, so i am more than sure you're going to have something really interesting in store for him. i know your minds are already made up. such a waste of taxpayer money, ok? for you people to sit up here. officers, you know, that puts their lives on the line, protecting san francisco, because you have the power to do it, but shame on you, every last one of you. commissioner: any further comment? hearing none, we will proceed on with item 11. we have a motion to dismiss, and we will hear arguments. you will have five minutes to argue on the motion to dismiss. >> well, officer louis filed -- lewis final the motion to dismiss. the record is clear that we want to bring witnesses if it is agreed not to your motion. we want to bring witnesses if you decide that the prosecution brought enough evidence in this case. now, again, the prosecution has the burden. officer lewis does not have the burden. he does not have to say a word they have to prove each and every thing in this ca

not only with officer hurley and lewis, now with officer lewis, you want to make an example of these fine officers because they stood up for their rights. because they fought the system. the system, which is fragmented. it is not working like it should work. and so he has been in this whole process for five years. you shouldn't discipline an officer because of the process. and the commission, no matter how much money the city has spent on this case, should have the guts to admit when the administration is wrong and the fong administration was wrong. so i hope you look at the guidelines. i hope you follow the guidelines harm the promulgated because the class c misconduct, you can't add more discipline and more penalty when this is a first offense. i have nothing further. >> thank you. >> can i question -- >> certainly. >> respond briefly, please. your best recollection of the offer made by the department since mr. mccoy brought it up and secondly, how about the class d violation or guidelines? >> it is remarkable that he is arguing about what the guidelines are. he didn't give you a w

[applause] >> is there another question? >> hi. i have a question. he spoke briefly about facing opposition when publishing these letters and getting the rights to these letters. can you speak more about that and maybe why you selected, they wanted these voices to be silent still? >> yes, the reasons are so buried. with some estates, i got the sense that they didn't appreciate the importancimportance of legacy. and as i said, they saw these letters more as personal relics and not important pieces of a puzzle of a people's collective history. and so it was just that they didn't see how this fit in to this sort of african-american life. you know, they saw it as their own prerogatives come in their own possessi

he threatened to pull out but eventually lewis did change his speech. think it was better and more critical and sharper but there was a big free-speech issue and that was on the mind of every activist. they knew what was going on in. and i believe john lewis first speech was felt every bit as much as the second speech that he did get and he contributed greatly to the free speech movement and to the whole student movement and to the peace movement. but must have a major influence but for the whole world because this event was covered by satellite throughout the world so then the communist party took it off the air. that had a major impact on people and the colonial systems in africa and a sure who were thinking about their own struggles purpose of bill taye was a major influence for the democracy movement in south vietnam that had an interesting role on a trajectory but this is the single moment in american history. anything else? >> you touched on it a bit but it how much to go into was set leaders and those the numbers supporting the leaders? >> when y

i think it is also important to note that officer lewis had the ability to explain to you his behavior by testifying in hearing. he chose not to. he had the opportunity to maybe give you a written letter or something explaining his behavior and why he engaged in it and n part of the penalty proceedings. he chose not to. he is basically telling you he doesn't have to explain what he did. he doesn't feel that he needs to give you any explanation and that i think is very disturbing. at least officer hurley got up there and tried to explain what was going on. this officer doesn't think he owes you that and that's why i think he shouldn't work here anymore. >> one minute. >> first of all, it is kind of confusing to me there mr. aleden does not remember what the offers were. the offers were 10 days time off. the first prior offer was 15 days suspension. now he did accept a deal. he couldn't deal with him. we were doing with someone who works for the city attorney. there is a signed copy of the settlement agreement which gives him 10 days off, that was not -- it was a written reprimand. no ti

here's nbc's george lewis. >> thank you for being here, guys. >> reporter: mayor bob parker has been going non-stop in the four days since the quake hit. encouraging the rescue workers, updating the public, and granting endless press interviews. he's been called the earthquake mayor. a former tv host, bob parker has used his communication skills to rally his people, the way rudy giuliani did in new york after 9/11. trying to keep hope alive here amid the ruins. a quarter of downtown christchurch may have to be demolished. >> what keeps you going is that this city is my home. this is where we live. this is everything to us. >> reporter: and to anyone who calls him a hero, he has this response. >> the real heroes are actually out there, so it's very embarrassing to be talked about in those terms. >> reporter: among the real heroes he cites, the international teams of rescue workers who have come here to help out, including a team from the los angeles county fire department. they say they're still hoping to find survivors. >> we had some long survival times in buildings in haiti, and so

our own george lewis is with us live from the city of christchurch tonight. george, good evening. >> reporter: brian, it's a city of frayed nerves tonight. we've been feeling aftershocks all day long as the effort to rescue people trapped beneath the quake rubble continues around the clock. as they survey the damage, many people in christchurch compare their city to a war zone. search and rescue crews say they have cleared about 40% of the collapsed buildings here. they're still pulling people out of the rubble. rosalind chapman ducked under her desk when the quake hit. she was rescued 12 hours later. anne bodkin got out with barely a scratch after 25 hours, her rescuers braving aftershocks to save her. >> in the midst of what is by and large one of the bleakest days in the story of our city, the sun came out at the same moment as they removed ann from that building. >> reporter: in the canterbury television office building, authorities fear as many as 100 dead could be buried beneath the rubble. they have given up hope finding anyone else alive here. >> i do

and as nbc's george lewis reports, this sunday brought no day of rest. >> reporter: it is a delicate and dangerous task, pulling apart the concrete layer by layer, looking for signs of life. teams from japan and china concentrate on the wreckage of the canterbury tv building that housed a language school. 28 japanese and 20 chinese students are believed buried inside. an american team from the los angeles county fire department is part of the international effort. >> we are very fortunate to be able to assist and give our services when new zealand's in their time of need. >> reporter: they have been assisting at the iconic christchurch cathedral. as many as 22 people feared beneath the rubble. here in the hardest-hit area, the christchurch central business district, it's a race against time. rescuers know that with each passing hour, the chances for finding people alive grow increasingly dim. many of the stately old stone houses of worship in christchurch now face demolition. the members of st. barnabas anglican church held sunday services just outside the cracked walls of their sanc
