people are not concerned about it. we see it in our legislature and now it is reflected in private business. >> the protests have not stood in the way of psycho donuts success. it has opened a second shop. >> when we come back we will give the other side equal time. >> i don't know when everybody became babies. >> we will talk with the shop owner. and we'll examine the issue of political correctness. why may some names be considered okay to some people even if others consider them offensive? >>> what is funny? protesters say a donut shop goes too far making fun of people with mental illness. now we will hear from the shop owner. >> between keeping trays stocked jordan is one busy donut shop owner. >> our goal is to create a fun, over the top and unusual environment. we didn't want to be like any other donut shop. >> the protests have brought in business as a back lash. mental health activists are acting as pied pipers leading passers by to psycho donuts. >> i think it is kind of silly. people are just far too sensitive

we have too many people in prisons to our liking people out of city college. what is happening is more than an outrage. the systethis is something thate take immediate steps to protect. we have seen that this falls on deaf ears. unless the people make their voices heard, we will not see change. we know this is a recipe for failure. going forward, we must become involved in the justice system. this is not someone else's problem. we will sit and wonder why the crime rates have gone up. >> when you think about the cost to our society and every person that lives in our society. it becomes very clear that we have no option but to act and act now. i am hoping that you will be motivated to get involved in non ordinary justice. we have yet to live up to that promise. i look forward to working with all of you call ever to pla. we invite you to stay with us. we look forward to continuing this dialogue in the future. thank you very much. >> thank you all for coming today. what is today. it's may 19, third thursdays we always do a department building inspection. brown bag

that have crossed the sea on a small well the people who are desperate the people who may die people with children and and that have left behind all their belongings what are we going to do to them turn them back to the. to they don't have a lot of i think this is the crucial issue for europe because now we are telling these countries that they should develop democracy and. democratic institutions so what we had to do is to view these people to handle these people in human history way that is a concern for the council europe that is. not is the guardian or the human rights convention european human rights convention we have to see to it that these people got a calming is being treated in accordance with the. principles of the european commission on human rights and therefore we have made no guidelines for the forty seven governments on how they are going to should deal with these people and also we are trained in training or pretty sure that can take care of these people then are calming to the borders in compliance with. the european convention well as they say a lot depends of the

the ability to receive people from facilities and people. being trained to receive people in a proper way are not sufficiently in place so there will be a very big challenge you can see that already. people are coming around that some contours have started to cross the borders yes we are seeing it and we also are getting reports that the delhi government is introducing border controls inside the ship again in france is also considering this possibility is there a serious risk that there may and no war. open borders in europe that we have seen yes there is a serious risk but we have to. take a look around the fact that there are two different danger our government is arguing for closing or making restrictions on the border because of the long war. criminals. and that is something different than. what you're operating on namely the problem of salem secrets so we have two problems i think with the open borders one is international crime we have had for a very long time. course the pressure on the borders from. also i believe you should the euro

driving people and people are seen as really marginal. she married again. his mother remarried a man who was as poor as she. doesn't really improve their circumstances very much, and it gets so bad that she has to apprentice her two children. so andrew johnson was apprenticed to attend when he was 10 years old. his brother was a couple years old. he was supposed be an apprenticeship until he was 21. why it would take that long to run to become a tailor, and it didn't because as you can see come it didn't take them that so he is 10 years old. is apprenticed to a tailor, and he actually runs away. he and his brother run away, and there is an ad, the language that i reproduce in the book. basically a runaway servant had, the kind of thing you would expect to see people more for my with with runaway slaves. you know, reward and everything, capture him, bring him back and we will pay you a reward. this is the future president of the united states. this is what happens to them. he runs away. he doesn't come back. he hikes, goes off and actually

hopeful, fun time for people. we started actually 8 years ago holding a recovery event in rhode island. it's a way which we give a voice to people in recovery. it's a way for us to tell people there is hope, that treatment does work. there's entertainment and speakers, the bands are playing, and clients are having a really great time. and we're meeting with politicians and other mental health providers. these types of events are important to highlight. it's important because we are educating the public about both mental health issues and substance abuse issues. we're also, by holding these types of events, we're also working to reduce the stigma associated with mental health or drug-substance abuse issues. this year, we're tying it into waterfire. we're taking the light of remembrance from here out into the general public, out into waterfire, the 20,000 people that are there to basically say, each of us is important, each of us has a voice, and this issue is important. it raises a level of awareness to have an eve

we want to know that later in the program people of us cross-talk examines of people power is fighting a losing battle when it comes to stopping the countries from starting foreign wars joyous more of that here on our t.v. than in three hours time. around the world tonight heavy gunfire. across the country continue to try and break up anti-government protests it comes amid reports of nationwide house to house raids with hundreds allegedly detained as authorities zone in on protest leaders since the outbreak of violence over eight hundred people are thought to have died with around eight thousand believed to be imprisoned or missing. footage here from inside japan's badly damaged fukushima nuclear plant has been released workers could be seen setting up a new cooling system following the installation of air purifiers that officials are saying will significantly reduce radiation levels at the facility japan's also shutting down its nuclear plant which is two hundred kilometers west of tokyo because of severe seismic risks. it's uneasy and prosecutors have brought sterrett charges against

i think it's the people we need to be bipartisan and give people a chance.ou know, especially these people who are coming on to the program, senators and congressmen, to answer our questions. and i like to say that this president, obama, god bless his soul, he's trying to do a good job i know. but he's got to free up and make it easier for us, period. and business, there's so much regulation. we have people from bp drilling here but we're worried about the environment? we've got to worry about ourselves first and then we can worry about the environment. host: tennessee, jeffery, the democratic caller. hi, jeffrey. caller: good morning. first-time caller. host: how are gas prices impacting your summer plans? caller: naturally they're going to affect every american in a lower, middle income because the prices have gone up. i would like to point out that carter put a gas freeze when prices got too high and i kind of wonder why is it that being a necessity as gas and electric trissty how those companies could make the profit margins that they're making. i would

people people's carelessness people close by. pavia we call the human factor so is there a lot to be done to to make people more aware to police awareness of people in this country i am sure that a lot should be done to increase people awareness and also there are many mistakes as they are done by state for what one of these mistakes is really the grass fires for example are washed it will forest agency or the regional forest service has to burn more than two million sick tears or break grass along forests to prevent. fires that are not under control but it sure they can not use are always good it was a religious thing so no the religious not on any of them are not in the knowledge of law to also get a crowd to keep seeing that this word in can prevent a larger fires but actually they have no people to keep it under control two million he fears of grass fires this is one and second is that they make a kind of propaganda of grass fires because people they see the forest as born. fires grass fires then i'd be cultural people be bor

people in the city of joplin proper. but there are suburbs literally around job lynplin, that's abou 150,000 people around downtown joplin. so you get all these together and there is a giant hook on a supercell, no weather here, no weather here, it's all by itself. they're choosing all of this moisture to come in and gobble up literally the atmosphere here making it the most severe storm possible which is caused mesocyclone which is the severe supercell. that's downtown joplin right through here. that's the gray area, a lot of concrete buildings downtown and then down to the south, 20th and 26th street, and i know you'll be showing pictures later, of a walmart and of a home depot, that's right at that same spot that that representative you just talked to was. there knows not much at all left of that walmart and very little at all left of the outside part of the home depot, i guarantee somehow there will still be people trapped in this debris and in this rubble, john, and we will find them days to come and they will still

quite hard but still i think we have enough people. to transform and improve should the overall situation in belarus. this is coach minsk saw a terrible terrorist attack an april. terrible tragedy but immediately after it occurred people started saying that look and sound go well acted as a shrewd politician and used to strengthen his own political standing and to weaken the opposition. do you think that's true that was what. he said straight away that it could only be the opposition who could have done this just war which was proved not to be the fact later but it's still for them and this only because they were real professionals saw me investigating. here's our police are too stupid and busy battering civilians as you put it so we know why didn't you russians and israeli investigators. and they conducted equality investigation when it turned out and i don't think culprits were involved with the opposition but look at shank of course will still claim it was the opposition's fault now he blames all the earlier attacks some down play a

like i said before people die sygate say two things one is the kind of people belong to unions so people of the younger generation if you're under thirty you probably not belong to a union people don't even know what unions do i've tried this out a number of times i'll ask a relatively younger person one younger than me you know what's a union they're not sure they're not true to union does and the second thing is i think that it is true that in america compared to other parts of the world of people even despite the fact we have terrible unemployment here despite the fact that we have homelessness here people are much better off in many respects and people around the world there even if you are or you can shop at wal-mart so there's a way in which i think prosperity in this country has led to a little bit of an acceptance of a lifestyle that means we don't fight we don't struggle or they're not cluttered up and struggles and i think that undermines the notion of labor solidarity some of the people that ramon interviewed for this report seem to proport the notion that it was a war on unio

fewer people are buying into the program. we need to get more people back to work. we can help to support small business so those employees pay more into the system. unemployment is too high. we hav e had 11.6% unemployment. the rest is near eight. i have a close sense of the pulse going on. i see the businesses hurting. a lot of these problems take care of themselves. >> the reality is that this is not enough. going back to the facts, the people running the program said if we don't make changes to social security, the fund will be bankrupt. we need to address social security. we have to make sure we are not privatizing the funds and that there is means testing. so those are wealthy don't get checks and those who are ill will get them. i am focusing on medicare and medicaid. until we solve the problem, we cna't stop this. i have not heard plans from the other side. let's come up with a real solution. people who really need this. >> that is cnsistant. the progrma we've paid into, you are going to pull the rug out from people. we make a promise, when you reach a certa

of tunisia and supports the democratic aspirations of all people from tunisia.to egypt to libya. washington has said they will look at people must determine the fate of their country. but in iraq where america claims to be transplanting democracy a renewed sense of nationalism has united thousands against the us here not supporting the democratic aspirations of people in iraq we haven't been for it for eight years now it means iraqi people have wanted us out and we've stayed there for their own good that's not democracy. anger over us occupation gates that is the president i think you were talking you pushed upon his exodus in two thousand eight hundred ten in agreement promising all american troops would withdraw from iraq by the end of this here in today's more peaceful iraq critics say the pentagon is stepping up pressure to overstay its welcome and cement its footprint the pentagon is pushing for a military presence after the summer of two thousand and eleven around twenty thousand troops while the white house is talking about ten thousand troops so actually

for native-born people. we haven't seen that. at the state level, it shows there is no correlation between increased emigration at the state level and unemployment rates overall. same at the federal level. we just don't see it. the reason is there's not a fixed number of jobs. someone is a new entry to the labor force, or high school or college graduate, they are going to become employed, spend money from their salary, there is entrepreneurship where immigrants are likely to create new businesses and that creates other jobs as well and other pitches in the economy which is likely to increase productivity which is something the of bonnie perry and others see in productivity from immigration. we don't see that by letting more people in legally or having some political compromise where people are already here that that would be an increase in unemployment. a short physics quiz since we have leading experts on government sitting in the audience here. i will ask a quick multiple choice questions together here for

people would say the reason so many more people in prison is because people are committing crimes.f they commit crimes, we put them in jail. >> it's a process called criminalization. as a matter of fact, if we look at the way the so-called drug war has driven the soaring prison population, we see that at one point if one were found to be in possession of an illegal drug, one might get a couple of months or maybe a year. but now it's possible under three strikes mandatory minimum sentences to end up in prison for an sbir lifeti-- entire lif for simple drug possession. the fact the prison population has risen so drastically has nothing to do with the number of crimes that are or are not committed. the more compelling suggestion is how prison has become an enterprise. so many have a large prison population and that's very difficult to slow down. >> the fight to abolish the prison system started in the '70s when she was fighting for release from political prisoners around the country. >> people from oregon, go back to oregon, continue to build the movement there to abolish the death pe

people have got to eat and this church has taken steps to help people out. it or not these steps started months before. this is a food pantry and in this room you see stuff everywhere from shampoo to things like toiletries, baby food, kids' coloring books, on this side, peanut butter and what's really incredible about this is, well, this is our new friend, lori mcdaniel. this stuff came from everywhere, didn't it? >> it did. we started opening a pantry in a little plaza in the room down the hall, wanting to serve our community. >> reporter: wait, you didn't have some huge blinking sign outside that said please bring food here. it started showing up. >> it was a ministry that god let out of one of our women's hearts and we took the ball and rolled with it. >> reporter: just by chance, you started stockpiling all this food and now your community is desperate for it and you had people from many states that have stopped by. >> we have. trucks just show up, a couple come from little rock, arkansas. >> reporter: unbelievable. >> and a pickup truck full of water. t

it says "the people." it is important that we recognize it is not just the people related to the events, teams, spectators. as i mentioned earlier, it is the people of san francisco that want to get near to where the events are, try to do that in an efficient way, or they are just going from their home to where they want to shop, and they do not want to be complete impacted by all of these resources focused on that day. that is something that we are taking to heart in our service plan, as well as conversations with regional transit providers. we want to do this in a way that allows someone to take an effective trip to the events that enhances their experience, but also, continue the bay area and its needs for the people, continue the economy, bring the resident experience, without having the negative experience of having all of the people come to this unique event. here is a slide that shows the race area. this is obvious the well- publicized. generally spanning between treasure island and a little bit awa

50 people or 100 people, i rarely have one or two people raise their hands.ple back home understand this and they want washington to do something now. host: you voted for paul ryan's budget, which is a tenured to 12 year plan -- and-year to 12-year plan. can you cut without looking at medicare? guest: you have to start going back and looking at where the baseline is. a lot of people think that we can do things by sleight of hand sometimes. you cannot. you have to lead a true, honest discussion with the american people. how can we get this thing under control? if we do not, -- again, you have to go back to the 2008 number. look at the massive spending we have from 2008 forward. we have 24% increases for a lot of the federal budgets across the board for the last two cycles. that is untenable. it's also untenable to say that some of them got over 80% increases. host: is that something you can agree to, if the debt ceiling vote came along the levels of 2008? guest: that's what we're talking about. go back to 2008 levels. that is where the massive spending increas

people. you know says turner a shining president of the moscow school of social and economic science says the spotlight will be back shortly after the break so stay with us we'll continue this interview in minutes. millions died. and minimums to look forward to be held and say. the pain and suffering will never be forgotten. as well as the joy of liberation. era spring the nineteen forty five on our cheap. walkabouts the spotlight i'll get up in just a reminder that my guest in the studio today is terrible challis the president of the moscow school of social and economic sciences we're talking about the second world war the war. in which nazi germany was defeated by allies that were trying to understand why people today don't have enough knowledge back then which should be well in the very beginning you said that they should and people should study that one isn't it time to forget for example you spoke about people telling the stories my granny never told me the stories about who she was that

we have about 60 people on parole, including people picked up by the department of corrections every week, on some sort of provocation. we do not know how many of those will no longer be on parole because -- who will this continue to follow? and who is going to go on the underlying charges, with either the serious, violent offenders, or to the others that would stay at this level. making some assumptions, based on the best guess, we assume that half of them will just go away. that would require new charges, and some number of those would be read -- would be arrested on the new charges. and charges would not be filed. we estimate that we will pick up about 42% as a result of this. these are people in on new charges, who were otherwise part of this group, easily readable and sent off to state prison. >> if this is 42 a month, this is an addition to the 60 people per week? what's this is based on those numbers. >> the potential for increasing the jail population -- sort of guessing what may happen with the other group, that have traditionally been the people who get revoked is about 77.

we're told most of the people, if not all of the people have evacuated. we're going to go over here to give you a sense of some of the other devastation here and around the town. we got here a short time ago. a scene of utter devastation. everything seems to be wiped out. look at the cars over here. you have a van and suv on top of a pick-up truck over here. the cars are twisted. some have been burned. you can see there's wreckage of cars all over the place. this is a scene repeated throughout the city. just homes have been reduced to virtually nothing almost as far as the eye can see. you mentioned a red cross official did say about 75% of the town is gone. governor jay nixon not giving specific casualty figures yet. a lot he says will not be determined until daylight arrives about an hour from now. they've been trying to work to pull people out of wreckage to see if anybody is still trapped. that's unclear. there are emergency crews combing this entire area looking for people who might be trapped. i'm going to bring in someone who can tell us more, mira

and those people in the truck, people were very courteous, obviously. and we were able to martha's vineyard out of their way, and, you know, the truck kept on honking. and it looked like it was goitot them some care. >> we're going to continue to talk about these pictures. this is going so fast on twitter. i'm monitoring my twitter feed. and someone sent a message. i believe it was an official-looking message that said if there are any available medical personnel, to please head to joplin, missouri to help out. and it's going to quickly, it went down to my feed. but i want to say again here on cnn, if there are any available medical professionals, that's according to someone here on twitter, and to me it looked like an official tweet, to head to job pin, missouri to help out. also, fema is standing by, saying they're standing ready to support missouri after the tornados and the severe weather. that e-mail, and that is just crossing the wire here into cnn. it is unbelievable. we have jaime green on the phone who shot the pictures. she was working, shooti

people lie. they tell great lies. many people are hurt sometimes. people die. why would a media, like nbc, cbs, the "new york times," the "washington post," the "l.a. times" why are they come police sit enablers in this very dangerous process? >> guest: it is, it's putting people against each other. the congressional black caucus acquisitions last summer. i was like don't do this. we can't afford this. we need to be united as a country. why does the media go along with this? >> host: why don't think put them to task and say it's wrong and condemn it? >> guest: they won't. i call it in the book, and i'm not trying to be cute here, but this is what i got from the clarence thomas hearings. why did the naacp sit on its hands? why did dan rather, tom brokaw and thomas jennings play ball with this take down of clarence thomas? i call it the democratic media complex. a year later after clarence thomas, bill clinton was named the standard bearer of the democratic party when a year before they told us a very low threshold of sexual harassment, and then bill clinton's be

people right now for the huffington posts are getting something like $15. the market has really degraded from even their, and it is very difficult to make money doing that. i have friends who are doing it, who are writing 10 stories a day just to get by. at the same time, the proliferation does make it very difficult for one small site to exist, right? our strategy in the old days was to align ourselves with a big media company -- cbs. we align ourselves with yahoo! in some way and with ail -- aol in another way. you need the types of connections with more established or at least larger players in order to survive. the other reason is that the proliferation of sites has caused a change in the way people get their news. no longer do they just go to what we call destination sites, which was essentially a newspaper online. they are getting their news on facebook and google and bing and search engines. to be out there in that news sphere, you have to have different ways of attacking a and having connections and distribution arrangements. >> i would like to add

fewer people are dying if they have access to care. so we still have people dying every year. and oftentimes they're dying because of problems of access to care. >> belva: that ward was sort of a wild place in the early days. we had entertainers coming in and people bringing cookies and all kinds of things going on there. i was just looking at some of the scenes from the ward today. it looks very modern, very up to date. so what are some of the innovative things that you'ring to? >> we have several programs to really address the needs of people living with hiv and aids today. one of our new programs that we're developing is really an hiv and ageing clinic. so i think if you'd asked people in this field even as recently as ten years ago, would you ever need the services of a geriatrician in an hiv clinic, they would have laughed at you. that's what we're doing now, creating models of care to take care of people as they age into their 50s, 60s and 70s with hiv. it may actually be accelerating the aging process. we're all subject to chronic diseases as we age. diabetes, hypertens

people wanted to dine on alaskan king crab. they wanted to visit people in small communities, have an opportunity to see that part of alaska before it changed, and the last thing on this particular survey was sport fishing. my job was basically to try to change public attitudes, to become an expert in the resources there, because no one had really been on the ground that much, and then to try to convince people that perhaps this should be a new national park someday. [narrator] when the kenai fjords national park was finally created, local people had rarely ventured into the fjords, and knowledge of historic settlement in the area was very fragmented. one explanation is that the fjords attracted few mariners and adventurers. english explorer captain james cook described it as a barren, stormy wasteland devoid of any habitation or interest, which faded in and out of view as the fog set in. he didn't even attempt to go ashore. [man] where we're heading for is the south end of three hole bay. from there, we go to cape aialik. it's

large people did die. people were killed but the intention was to torture them severely and then release them back into their own community so these people would limp back or would try to get a lift to what it might eventually come back to their own community where they would act as human billboards. the with the advertisements for what happens to you if you oppose the regime and would spread ripples of things lady through the communities when they would re-emerge. and this went on for months. >> host: you're discuss as a journalist, but one of the things i thought was interesting in your book is you talk about the church and the church's role. i remember a few years actually when you were on the ground covering these stories i remember reading one civil rights leader here in the united states that mugabe can't possibly be torturing people, he's a christian, and so there is this belief that his faith drove him into the war, drove him into politics. he stayed as a leader because he believed he does have all

notions and people do they play on people's emotions to play on people's ignorance about islam and muslims you see and also this was created a climate of seeing you see if you see something suspicious in the parking lot or in the store say something immediately in december the department of homeland security began encouraging americans to report suspicious activity to the country's largest food retailer wal-mart partnership with washington has been accused of perpetrating a climate of panic and subsequent need for more surveillance you need to create an enemy for people to rally behind analysts wars and the fact that we're spending over fifty percent of our taxes on war and our national defense when there's really no threat directly to this country and they need to keep it in this following the assassination of enemy number one and american lawmaker called for an increase in rail safety funding and the creation of a no ride list as u.s. officials warn of more terror threats following bin laden's death many americans remain concerned others are left wondering about the dangers of forsaking

for the palestinian people.etermination, mutual recognition and peace. so while the core issues of the conflict must be negotiated, the basis of those negotiations is clear. a viable palestine, a secure isra israel. the united states believes that negotiations should result in two states with permanent palestinian borders with israel, jordan and egypt, and permanent israeli borders with palestine. we believe the borders of israel and palestine should be based on the 1967 lines with mutually agreed swaps so that secure and recognized borders are established for both states. the palestinian people must have the right to govern themselves and reach their full potential in a sovereign and contiguous state. as for security, every state has the right to self-defense, and israel must be able to defend itself, by itself, against any threat. provisions must also be robust enough to prevent a resurgence of terrorism, to stop the i infiltration of weapons and to provide effective border security. the full and phased withdr

i talk to as many people as i can, some people are devastated. are trying to figure out what they're going to do next, how they're going to get through it. based on my experience going through katrina and helping out there and some of the other things i've done with the national guard, i'm just trying to help comfort them and let them know the american spirit is here. looking out today going through, i saw american flags tied and posted to everything. >> a lot of american flags, yeah. >> the american spirit is there, it's strong. we'll get through this, we just have to bond together. the outpouring of people that have come to help is unbelievable. unreal. >> gary, you're in a shelter right now. how are people doing? is everybody down in the shelter? >> reporter: frankly, anderson, it's a chaotic situation. you have people not in good health. some people who are injured from the initial tornado. we were just getting prepared to do a live report with you when police officials ran into this huge gymnasium, more than 400 people, and started screaming

you can see that in people who have really elaborate paranoid fantasies or some people will look and say, this isn't so elaborate, right, other people said, we got him, he must be dead by now, all of these things add to that feeling of it's rational that there's conspiracy. but i am saying i think the doubters -- they're really a minority, if we think about it, nothing will prove to them, nothing is going to prove to them this is true. >> i take it from all of this you agree with the president, releasing the photos would have been a vain act in terms of being persuasive? therefore not releasing was the wiser approach? >> absolutely. i don't think any of these foot yos would have made a difference to convincing people. i do believe it could absolutely ignite people. for the next generation, for the children of our country, i think it would have created tremendous -- we're not thinking about the greater victims here. people who are suffering and are going to be made anxious. i think this would increase that. >> we now have a treasure trove of information about al qaeda. all the stuff w

we have 3% latino people in the city. where were these 5000 people going? they were going to department 42, where the woman judge was going guilty, guilty, guilty, incontinent. we started doing a series of stories. i keep hearing these depressing stories about how you're dealing with budgetary cutbacks, but when we did our story in the public defender's office, there was a wave of embarrassment to say the least, and within a couple months, the board of supervisors added $1 million a year to add lawyers in a lot of misdemeanor court rooms, and starting monday, i believe they are going to start putting lawyers in the apartment 42. -- in department 42. [applause] >> id raises an interesting -- that is really incredible. this practice has been going on for years and years of not providing lawyers. it is a sea change, and because of that, there will be thousands of people who will get counsel. one of the questions i have is as a journalist, how are you able to work with defense attorneys or public defenders to bring like to ordinary in justice salmon -- bring li

was the way people began to talk about their faith or spirituality and some people, dare i say talked about god or jesus and law. and i gained some interesting and interesting and spiritual reflection was spurred on by disaster but not related to a hungry stomach or where am i going to lay my head tonight or get my medications, all quite serious issues. and i was wondering if you see that that along the way with all the other issues that come to the floor like the budget crisis and social services, that faith journey is an undercurrent that stimulates that. >> we do a faith journey every month and michael said for some people it's the most important part of the program. it's amazing to hear some people he is stories. people with relate to almost everybody's story, not all but some. >> and you hit on something important. we'll attribute this to the chief our success. our constituents are about 800 congregations in the city and county of san francisco. how do you keep their interest and keep them together? we have been able to do that by giving them opportunities to coming to the to wor

is using ground people to scare white people and they claim of latino population here legally as taking away jobs from those hard working americans the real truth latino immigrants provide a huge economic boost to this country but nobody out there wants to talk about so both sides have dug in their heels and nothing happens and again america can't really solve its own problems and we have this upcoming debate over the debt ceiling we all know that washington has a spending problem or fourteen trillion dollars in debt and counting so what's the solution. nobody can agree on one it's clear that we need spending cuts but also sometimes increases to help raise our growing debt so we can give tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires but then the middle class gets squeezed we can make cuts to programs operate here to get systems to the poor with g.e. you can get away with paying no income taxes in two thousand and ten that's unfair to you and don't even get me started of course on the amount of money that this country spends on in the military and running on the size of their making cuts d

of different members of the city. >> people look to california as we continue to send a lot of people to death row every year, with the highest number of new death sentences. people look at the state and they see how many people in california are moving away from the death penalty, who favor replacing the death penalty and how can you have so many people voting for death sentences when the population is moving further away from the death penalty? those of us. support replacing the death penalty are not allowed to be on death penalty juries. the process is complicated but the prosecutor and the defense attorney goes through a long selection process when they ask everyone their view of the death penalty. and if you are willing to vote for death. anyone who hesitates is actually removed from serving on the jury. i have never been called for this kind of jury service but i have spoken to people who have been, and they share their experience and how this is very upsetting. and this is very traumatizing to have the judge look at you to say that you are not qualified. you cannot serve on thi

some people won't. some people will never be the same. like that thing with katrina, some people are really good but you can tell just under the surface that they are a wreck. give them space, try to be professional, try to comfort them if you can, but some people won't let you. and don't take it personal. that's the main thing, just don't take it personal. sometimes people just can't be helped. they are not mad at you, they don't hate you, you are trying to help them. they probably understand that, but they have suffered a terrific loss and some people you can't help. but try. you got to try anyway. that's kind of why we're here, we want to try. some other feels, disorientation, physical or emotional numbness, loss of trust or abandonment, cranky. i would be. if i had to go shave in the marina medal school, my cat ran away, i'd be pissed. team behavior, be calm. you don't want to be excited and crazed. be systematic, demonstrate by example. if you are calm and cool and under control, people will see you are there to help. if you act like

i mean, there were people -- people were getting, you know, screaming out to jesus, people -- some peopleere just -- >> in the end it sounds like you're not sure if somebody's underneath you? >> what happened is we all sprinted into this little cooler and packed 20 people in it, so, i mean, there was not enough -- >> how big was the space? >> ten feet by, probably, you know, seven feet. it wasn't big at all. >> so, you guys are all pushed up against each other? >> on top of each other. >> and beer and all the shelves and -- >> lots of beer was breaking and everyone was getting cut by the glass. the only thing that was remaining from the entire building was the cooler we jumped in. a big part of that was the clerk at the store. not only did he run up and unlock the door but he was the last person into the refrigerator. i mean, he's a hero. that guy -- >> did you get his name? >> i can't -- >> i didn't catch it. >> honestly, i wouldn't recognize anyone that we experienced it with. >> other than the clerk. >> if we run into him i'll know him because he's cool. great guy. >> yeah. he was a he

he would seem to be publicly he employed three people, he was employed in three people to help peoplen the constituency with their visa application. i'm just wondering, what do you think that the candidate, he's not an mp but a candidate helping people with visa applications? sola people said that is enticing people to vote for him because he's offering a service. what do you make of it? >> what i make of it is first let's be clear. decisions on the visa applications are always and only made by professional members of the canadian public service and officers, they are not made by the minister mp's or candidates, his case look like the brampton area where you have a lot of folks who are new canadians from the have family and friends coming to visit, the number one issue is immigration case work, and as a candidate from any party going door to door is inevitably going to get flooded with requests for information and help. they can say i'm sorry i'm just here to ask for your vote and not going to provide you with any answers to your question or they can try to be helpful in a legitimate

like, especially seniors, or disabled people. there's also some bustlines that are less used in the richmond district that we are now working with the muni system to think about continuing but maybe reduce its frequency, but continue its access for many people that live in isolated parts of the city. i strongly support stronger youth discount passes and supporting the bus system so that younger people have strong access. we are trying to work with the school district right now and city agencies to ensure that young people get more support. we want them to be lifelong transit riders as well, so we are trying to look at different issues of transit equity for younger people in our population as well. >> what is happening with crime in your district, and how do you think our police department is doing? supervisor mar: we are extremely lucky to have a great police captain with great officers within our police department on six and geary -- sixth and geary. a lot of issues in our neighborhood tend to be graffiti, carbos thing. sometime

i think a lot of people today -- some people want to revise history. they want to say everybody knew it. it was there for the taking. everybody everyone knew it. should we have known? absolutely. did we want to know, and, by the way, was everybody incentiveized not to know? absolutely. that was part of the problem. >> i had an interesting involve. in this personally. i was with a bank, the queen's bank. they are the most prestigious banks in the world, and they had encouraged me about a year before to put a lot of money into a -- my kushlt current account into a premium account, aig. a lot of people did this. when lehman brothers went under -- first it was google, aig, and i heard one report saying they might be one of the next to go. i range my bank, and i tried to get all my money out of that. >> no chance. >> six weeks later i finally did, but i know there are thousands of people who are still trapped without getting their money back from aig. i mean, it's extraordinary that everyone just assumed that my end of this process that the ordinary punter,

why we've gone from most people having pensions to very few people having pensions and then third why those pensions or how those pensions typically the government employee pensions got wiped out by wall street. ok that's a good set of questions when we talk about these kinds of tensions there are called defined benefit pension plans which means you get a certain amount of money when you retire for the rest of your life and you can even get a kind of a rider on it works for the rest of your spouse's rest of his or her life so it's it provides a great like social security it provides a great deal of security it's not like before a one k. when your money runs out it runs out the average forty four one k. has forty five thousand dollars it how long can you live in american society of forty five thousand and forty percent of people. for one case. that averages ten thousand dollars so it's prophetically small you can outlive it in a hurry. it used to be common understanding that you needed to pensions to to survive in your old age you got one with social security and the other one was from

, by the people and for the people. [applause] >> so back to your speech, someone asks what is your game plan to spread the spirit of the wisconsin protest to other parts of the country? >> we're out there every day educating and mobilizing. and it's not just in wisconsin. we've cross-pollinated wisconsin people with ohio people with missouri, with tennessee, with indiana. we've gone all over the country, and people are mobilized. and it's not just union people. it's working people in general. small business people are out there supporting us. nonunion workers are out there supporting us because they think these people have gone too far in trying to pay back their rich donors by destroying the right of workers out there. so we're taking that message everywhere, we're seeing it take effect. and, apparently, we're doing something right because guys like scott walker, his rating in the his own state -- ratings in his own state have fallen like a big rock in a small pond. they think he's gone too far. >> okay. someone says,
