carson a so yes all right there rachel thanks so much for joining me so one of the big reasons that the d.h. us was created in the first place was to create to increase the flow of information between departments has not happened sure so essentially the nine eleven report that came out after the september eleventh attacks said that the reason why the government didn't know what was going on was because these agencies were so separate from one another that there was no flow going on and since then even as you heard so far in in the story we just saw. within that agency it's still very much separated there are a lot of departments within the larger department of homeland security often fighting for resources and as such they don't necessarily have the same policies of the time they're not always on the same page and this is in addition to the fact that other agencies that claim that they're also interested in homeland security take the cia the f.b.i. department of defense they aren't part of homeland security so that information sharing is as we would like it to be i think still has a

yeah rachel what do you think about that right here in d.c. and then there's capital so i've got a little bit of background from a cab driver who is explaining his impotence he explained to me that he does not pick up young african-american men on the street particularly at night and the reason he gave me was this one time he did in the northeast of d.c. pick up. a group of three young african-american men and they ultimately stole his car and beat him up and then ended up crashing the car so this isn't to say least in my opinion i don't think that everyone who is african-american is going to do that certainly not to the contrary but for this for this taxi driver he was so shaken by the experience by that one moment that he was willing to engage in racial discrimination even though he knew it was against the law and against the rules he signed as a cab driver because of an experience he had faced so i think that until we get past seeing entire groups of people based on one experience you've had racial discrimination such as we've talked about

let's bring in cnn legal contributor paul cow an and rachel self.l case. how will the jackson family try to prove this? >> well, i think they're going to have a tough time. it is kind after ridiculous case. picture this. michael jackson says to the concert promoters i want you to hire my personal physician. a guy who's licensed in four states and has never had a disciplinary problem brought against him, conrad murray. the promoters hire conrad murray. then at jackson's request he administers parole follow killing michael jackson and now the jackson family's trying to blame the concert promoter. they got to convince the jury of that and they got $40 billion. i say it is an uphill battle to sell that theory. >> so rachel, are you saying this is laughable? >> yeah. i agree with paul. what we're dealing with here, it doesn't make somebody professional incompetent to have personal debt. there's only one remaining claim here. aeg has actually taken this one remaining claim up to the appeals court. the negligent hiring claim is the only claim remaining. th
