this really allows san francisco and san ma may mateo county to t takes place at the cow palace and to decide the future of the cow palace. if we look at it over the years it makes no sense for us to allow within our city limits or near our city limits things like gun shows that promote and provide access to weapons that we don't even allow in our city limits, that we don't allow in the state of california. and it goes against our values. so not only will this give us the ability to stop the gun shows and to fight something that continues to go against what we promote and what we fight for here in our city, but it also allows us the opportunity to determine what activities, what events take place at the cow palace, or to determine what we want to do with the future of the cow palace as a whole. i cannot see any reason why we would not want that ability as this body and as this city to provide that oversight. and to have the ability to determine what happens in the place like the cow palace. so i'm very supportive of this resolution. i hope that my colleagues really get behind this reso
