mr. hunter: thank you, mr. speaker. they both start with c's. chairman wolf, there is a situation you and i discussed involving a former u.s. marine imprisoned in mexico for making a wrong turn while in possession of three legally owned firearms. andrew endured two combat tours in afghanistan. he was meritoriously promoted to sergeant on the battlefield. a high honor for any serviceperson. and he, like others, returning from war has been diagnosed with posttraumatic stress. that's why he was in san diego so he could seek treatment for that disorder. for two months andrew has been in jail in mexico. he's been mistreated. we found out yesterday he had been beaten, he'd been chained to the wall and beaten by his mexican imprisoners. he's been threatened and he's been looking for a way out since that night he was pulled over in secondary screening. he acknowledged his mistake and disclosed his firearms and wanted to come back to america. that was not good enough for mexican authorities and the legal proceedings in andrew's case is only just beginnin

mr. duncan hunter in a letter to the embassy in mexico asking that this hero will make up this bad situationoined a letter with debbie wasserman schulz who is the mom of andrew who lives in her district. our congressional colleagues and i joined debbie on this letter, 25-year-old marine corps veteran from western florida and we are very worried about this case, took a lot of pressure and a lot of u.s. help to get these cases resolved. in the same way you help out with andrew's case, i put those in the record. i would like you to comment on that. secondly, secretary jacobson, thank you for rectifying for the record statement that had been made in the senate committee about a different case. the opportunity before me always to speak about, other interests including my native homeland of cuba and in this case venezuela. you had said the opposition, the venezuelan opposition was against the sanctions bill, thank you for clarifying that that is not the case. it is not the right thing for the united states to sanction human rights violators that killed so many in venezuela. leopold's lopez's third

mr. goodman must not be a hunter. because what he says animals are defenseless. have you ever stood in front of a bear, a pig? deer are very, how would you say, aggressive if given the opportunity. i was taught at a very early age to respect, whether i was fishing, hunting, and so it was taken with some -- how would you say, right that i think our creator put food here and for me to, how would you say, eat it. and that's pretty much all i have to say. thank you. host: mr. goodman? guest: i think it's probably fair to assume you also eat food that you do not kill yourself. surprising, to say the least, that people take the position that you truly respect the animals that you kill, because certainly you wouldn't kill an individual that you respect. and with regard to the animals being defenseless, regardless how aggressive a bear may get when he or she is trying to protect the cubs in the face of a hunter, certainly the bear has little defense against a shotgun, a crossbow, or a high-powered rifle. host: you talked a little earlier about the air angel technology th

mr. clerk call item 2 >> item 2 is a hearing on the streets with the hunters point shipyard and the candle stick development. >> thank you. i requested this hearing today along with my co-sponsor supervisor breed relating a to a technical and important issue in terms of how your neighborhoods are described and that issue is the width and a street clearance of our roads in san francisco that plays a critical role in safety. the issue really is how to really balance all of the various needs that our roads serve in san francisco. we know that we have regular discussions in the city in terms of allocation of roads whether to cars or bikes or pedestrians or parking. we also know that in terms of is safety of our community the width of our roads matters. this is really a question of balance. and advancing sometimes needs that seem to be competing whether or not they are. the issue that confronts us is to consider all the public assess and taking them stookt. colleagues i'm sure you're aware of the san francisco fire department expressed a view in the hunters point shipyard and the candle stick w

mr. abdul jabbar doesn't know it that statement is dangerous. if his vision were to come true, we would be a nation of witch-hunters. exactly is in charge of defining and exposing every instance of racism? who? do we set up a tribunal in salem, massachusetts? sadly this kind of think something permeating the country. americans are being punished for even donating money to causes some people don't like. speakers are being cancelled on college campuses if they don't uphold liberal orthodoxy or mandates. race hustlers are branding people with whom they don't disagree with the r label. you want a divided nation, let's keep this up. the reason kareem abdul jabbar was asked to write a column on racism is because of donald sterling the owner of the los angeles clippers who has now been banished from the nba. as you know, mr. sterling made harsh comments about blacks. he is finished in the court of public opinion. but feels it necessary to continue to speak. >> people are intimidated by evened thought of racism and around the world they call me from australia and london and they ask me, different media, are you a racist? i'

hunters, gary calling in glen oaks, maryland. good morning. caller: good morning and thank you for c-span. mr.arner, this is the first i have heard of this issue, and i thank c-span for bringing it up because i really thought it was just, like, second nature, the fact that we had the ability to .unt and fish whatever the laws in your state were. you got a hunting season, you pay your hunting license, then you go and hunt by the legal manner as prescribed. somehow i don't think you have gotten across to the public, at least you have not gotten across to me, but your ordination is rationalsonable, organization, but going off in the deep end does look, i believe in the ethical and fair treatment of animals. personally, i would not go out and snare trap, but there are laws and regulation in hunting for legal means of hunting, procuring animals. i like to fish. i use barbless hooks. that is more challenging than a barbed hook. anyway, that is what i have to say. can you talk about reasonable regulation? i do think we should try to reduce the amount of lead in the environment, so if there are other
