russo's report identifies in san francisco and they would likely be pushed out of the city. these stories are not unique to the mission, to russian hill, to the castro, but the richmond district has huge stories as well of people displaced by the ellis act and other no-fault evictions and in fear of their residence in our city. i did want to say from the sf appeal article it's very clear who the culprits are as well in who's driving the fear and the displacement. the eviction according to the appeal article is driven by a group of speculators, craig good man and associates and craig malloyy who is stated goal is to flip the property for massive profits. we need to figure out as a city how to figure out how to keep these speculators from doing this. there are 80 buildings involved. tech workers moving to the city seems to me a very prdive approach as well as looking at the broader factors as well. early this month another resident as well working with me to convene the richmond no evictions town hall and efforts to defend our homes in the richmond district and really raise th

russo, again i want to thank you and your staff for the very quick turn around on this report. just want to make a couple of comments and i want to begin by thanking all of the residents who have come out to this hearing. i know that there are a number of people in this audience who they themselves have been impacted by this displacement, they themselves are being impacted by this displacement. and the point of this hearing is to not only get a better grasp of the data, the statistics, but it also put a human face to what's happening because for every eviction, for every person, for every displacement number, there is a human being behind that number and it's not just a human being but also that family that comes with that person that is also being impacted. i do want to ask you a question to provide some context as well. one of the things that i know is not included in this report because it's not something that we track or can track at this point is the issue of buy-outs. can you explain that, what we're talking about and how that could actually have a greater impact in terms

russo i think the solution as we move forward with many of the community-based organizations who come forward to speak will be very helpful. i wanted to say from the report it's useful to see from the inner richmond and the outer richmond we as a district, as a whole district, i think i would add up the over 80 -- 79-plus since the data was crunched, about 80 ellis act buildings that were, that many many seniors and family space evictions, it's probably the highest of all the different districts. i wanted to say district 1 in the report of the top 7 neighborhoods, the inner richmond and the outer richmond are fourth and fifth, so it's a huge amount of people, especially seniors and people with disabilities that we're looking at. that fear is real for people in the richmond as well. the growth in property values of homes in the richmond district coupled with excellent schools and improved public transportation and parks make it a very tempting target for many of the speculators out there that are looking to quote u.n. quote flip buildings and evict people. the high concentration of sen

and next say fish i do not think after their russo the financial problems and intimacy with the formerhead of the european central bank. there's now an all new form of humanitarian aid for the twenty first century created by members of the occupy movement this is nothing to do with hunger or homelessness what a different key problem in the so-called first world debt the rolling jubilee project has already bought around fifteen million dollars in personal debt for americans around the country most of the financial obligations that they bought were for medical bills and now the people who had to pay these bills are free from their burdens the group claims that the secondary debt market is very cheap and that they are able to buy the nearly fifteen million dollars in debt for only four hundred thousand dollars the secondary market exists because banks try to sell consistently unpaid debt to third parties for less than a nickel on the dollar right now i would be begging the rolling jubilee project to get rid of my college loans but alas this is always purchased anonymously so it's all pure

." >> i'm just reading this interview that mad dog russo gave to bob reeseman in the "new york dailysseau drops a hammer on his old partner mike. did you read that, lou? >> yeah. he was pretty critical of him. >> you know it, i know it. >> he is a fraud. >> well -- >> listen -- >> according to

joe russo lost his daughter lauren. she was one of six adults killed along with 20 children. he's read most of the report and refus re -- >> she stood there in front of 15 little kids and took the bullet, that is amazing. i'm very proud of her. >> and rehema, we just got this in just quickly, the recordings that we mentioned, the 911 calls, they will be -- the tapes will remain sealed until december 4th to give prosecutors a chance to appeal. but at this point, a judge ordered the release and tapes will not be immediately unsealed so this information just in to us. >> that's probably a comfort to many of the families in the community who do not want the tapes released and even if they are released they are not going to look -- >> yesterday, we were talking thinking about details of this report being released and the pain and the 1 year anniversary and see families going through it over and over again. >> so many of them did not wants to talk -- how much she protected the children. >> let me bring in michael smerconish, msnbc contributor and to the point rehema has made, the f

russo was radiant in some might argue that store and all. number two what we're hearing from your radiance in these discussions fall fall into that category of you know never eaten a place called moms never play cards with them and called on consumption down to the negotiating table with with knowing that you wanted to shop for a swap. it's ok let these guys. the americans and the french do what they want because the arabian shall have a much bigger problem. the saudis and the israelis. getting together. to do something about the nuclear proliferation. it's going on in one ear and watch the bomb everyone knows that it's going to happen. the saudi certainly know what these relics are clean or i would suggest that the mullahs in the holy city could be a lot more concerned about the saudis and the israelis going after them. then a bunch of you know up americans and french some sort of coalition because they're not going to mess around. to see him actually said in fact a retest of the room reminded me of this test. it's only a few astute easily

how is it possible that an army behaved like that a even though in the russo-japanese war, the japanese army was known for its discipline and how well it treated its p.o.w.s and so on? and i think hawaii lie explains a little bit what happened in world war ii and afterwards as well this that it's a particular situation where soldiers are in a foreign country, today don't understand the language, they're at sea, they're often country boys, they -- you could be shot at by anybody. the distinction between guerrilla fighters and soldiers and so on is, almost doesn't exist. so you go into a town or a village, you have no idea who's going to be shooting at you. there is then a great temptation to be trigger happy and just shoot the brutes and shoot them all. and i think that's -- i don't think me lie was an act of necessarily -- despite the erections of calculated sadism -- i think these things also can come out of fear. >> and they have taken many, they've been -- they take a lot of losses. >> as had the japanese. and again, there's this thing of dehumanization of enemy. quote-unquote, gooks
