>> okay, and that is yours, myron. >> okay.pinion, but you're trying to accuse my uncle of being abusive -- >> no, i'm not accusing anybody. >> oh, yes, you are. >> i'm saying what michael jackson said on air. >> and i know what my cousin said. i lived with him and i know what he said. and i know his views. i saw him at the ranch. and his view on discipline, he did not believe that that type of discipline should be used on children. >> i heard you the first three times. >> okay. that's his opinion. >> let's go to a child lawyer, susan moss. what about it? >> i love when they say, joe jackson never beat him, except when he beat him, with a strap or a belt or some other apparatus. a beating is a beating. >> okay, you guys -- >> and to the other lawyers. penny douglass furr and richard herman. you know, there is not going to be any criminal charges against joe jackson, anything that did happen, myron hawkins saying it didn't happen, happened many, many years ago. it can never be resuscitated as a charge. yes, no, richard herman? >

okay. >> check this out. >> myron hawkins, but is it true, myron, that joe jackson actually took a belttoo? >> oh, see, well the way you phrase that, nancy, i like to put it this way. we all, at that time, the belt was used to discipline. it wasn't used as an abusive weapon. my uncle and my mother disciplined us all. we were disobedient, that happened. a lot of the times the issue would be coming home straight from school. joe had five boys there, he was a black man working in the mills and sometimes that called for strict discipline. michael was one of the children that didn't believe a child should be struck with a belt or anything like that. but he wasn't abused. >> why did he take a belt to you, myron? >> sometimes if i acted up -- my mother took a belt to me. >> i'm asking you about joe jackson. he was not your father. what did you do, if anything, to deserve that? >> let me put it that way, nancy. at that time, families lived together and the grandmother and the aunt had permission from those parents to do that. if my mother babysited katie's kid -- >> are you going to tell me wha

that expression -- >> why did he take a belt to you, myron?cted up, by mother took a belt to me. >> i'm asking you about joe jackson. he was not your father. i'm asking you why he took a belt to you? what did you do, if anything, to deserve that? >> let me put it this way, nancy. at that time, families lived together and the grandmother and the aunt had permission from both parents to do that. if my mother babysitted the kids -- >> are you going to tell me what you did or not? look, my grandmother helped raise me so i get it. i'm asking you why somebody, not your parents, took a belt to you. >> mr. velazquez, are you a jd as well, a hostage negotiator? >> no, ma'am. >> why would you believe this is just a voluntary manslaughter charge when obviously someone had shot him up in the neck? >> right. what i'm saying is in this state we have felony murder. i'm not sure about california. if they do have felony murder, then, of course, it could be. >> well-put. very quickly, i want to show you that video that many people believe is the inception of mi

professor myron? >> i think we reached that point. we reached it a while ago. things we're spending money on per good for the economy in the long haul. thr he things that are going to make it less efficient. we're spending all this money in a way that's going to guarantee slower growth. i agree that's totally unconscionable. >> could i ask you a quick question about the comparison with china and their stimulus program? some people are saying that's how it should have been done here? does that make any sense to you? >> no. i think that basically, they're in a luckier position, they haven't seen negative effects. they're also starting from a much, much lower level of infrastructure and things like that. much more plausible in china, additional roads, hospitals, schools make sense much it's far less plausible here where it's basically throwing bad money after good with all of the additional spending in the stimulus package. >> the republicans, in the tenure of george w. bush spent recklessly, foolishly and disastrously, as it turned out. the administration of bara

impunity because they were untouchable was infuriating and frightening and i was prevailed upon by myron admin, our editor at the city journal to write about this experience and i hesitated for a while but myron did persuade me and i'm terrie glad i did. i got to call this guy and eventually his editor even worse than he was, and the first thing i said to him is you never called me back. i'm still waiting for you to call me back, and he was scared. he had never been called -- these people are never confronted with their own perfidy and it was an absolute pleasure to be able to write about it, to make him squirm away he had done to me. and then i got his editor. he kind of scurried away and said you have to speak to my editor. and i spoke to her and she had the emotion of a telephone dial tone. she said well nobody likes the way they are written about in print but we feel the story is strong and its legitimate. it was absolutely stomach turning. >> host: now what happened after your rhetorical appeared in city journal? did you hear from them after that? >> guest: a lot of people -- it was

. >> myron, are rents coming down to a point where you can find locations like sixth avenue or 33rd streetow do you look at that? >> we've been opening stores, not closing them so we've been quite successful in suburban america, opening new stores, about 100,000 square feet, where we have an opportunity. the rent has not been a problem in the past. it's canceled out for us in terms of return for investment. manhattan is more expensive than the average suburban store but our capital authority proves out to be a profitable store. so we're very optimistic about this location. >> do you have a santa claus in the store today? >> not today. no, back to school time. >> no, not exactly.
