st. francis medical center and admit today the covid unit.ama died in the unit on april 29th at 5:05 and she was alone. in closing, let me acknowledge that i have kept myself abreast of the data and statistics and i understand all the factors that led to the impact of the coronavirus on nursing homes, regardless, there was plenty of time to prepare. the first nursing home cluster was documented in seattle in early march, but i could not get any hard facts on nursing home cases in our parish. nor could i get any level of comfort regarding a plan. the fact is my family was robbed. mama was trapped in a petrie dish and we were shut out. mama died alone and our family will forever be scarred by this tragedy. i implore each of you to continue your due diligence. evaluate best practices like we see coming out of florida. find the caregiver within the nursing home who can tell you what really happened inside when they witnessed firsthand the care for our most vulnerable and treasured loved ones. the oaks is a for-profit business that was not prepare

i joined the speaker in praying with pope francis in front st. stereo statue in 2015. when the mob wanted to destroy a, she condoned it like she never heard of saint sarah. a bit like peter's denial. and this week in wisconsin, criminals took down the statues of an abolitionist who died fighting to end slavery during the civil war and lady forward, a symbol of women's suffrage movement. worst, they physically assaulted a democrat state senator kicking him in the head, knocking him out cold. so much for peaceful protest at the speaker continues to celebrate. civil society cannot survive with this type of lawlessness. if cities and state leadership 's failed to uphold the rule of law, congress should move to withhold their funding. the time for warnings have lapsed. order will be restored. republicans have spoken up and the silence on the left have been deafening. it's time to restore this nation and rebuild it and the way you do that is you start by passing a bipartisan bill that will become law. you look at tim scott's, you look at the democrats, 70, 80% were is in bot

st. francis overdose challenge. i agree with the sites. i believe that san francisco needs these sites to be open because overdosing is something that humanity should not have to deal with anymore. racism is something that humanity should not have to deal with anymore. there's a couple things along that line. when it comes to crack cocaine, please insert that in there as well because crack cocaine is heavily prevalent in the black community. and the black community really does need help getting off of crack cocaine. i support this 100%. our community needs it. and i thank everybody who is helping to create this. thank you. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> caller: yes, this is david elliott-lewis, long-time resident of the tenderloin. i see firsthand the consequences of addiction and overdoses and i support the legislation and i applaud -- i applaud the legislation as it's very brave at a time when the current administration is threatening to come in to san francisco and arrest anyone who opens or operates a s

st. francis has a peaceful week. matt, thank you for putting this on twitter and i say his name in peace, george floyd. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. welcome, you have up to two minutes. >> thank you, i'm rocky sharma with district 4. right now, i'm writing a letter to mayor london breed email because i see there's a huge divide between public is professional sentimentses. and i realize that london breed is overprotective of casing a curfew on the society she wants to protect from covid-19 and other crimes that may occur especially because we have seen if more of the looting happens after sunset and my question is really about, what is dividing people from converging their thoughts together at this point because there's so much emotional response behind all of this? and that brings me to the question want is going on at the police academies that get police to have a mindset when they're on the job of doing the things that we've been watching happen and what we've been witnessing? th

st. francis wood? how would any of us feel? it's not the job of the building code to protect tenants. it is the responsibility of this body to protect tenants under rent control, to prevent their windows from being covered, and to exercise its oversight role over the planning commission. part of that oversight role is a common sense reality check. covering windows of rent-control units with market-rate units doesn't pass the smell test. did the flawed project make it through planning? it's hard to believe, but you bet it did. this project is full of flaws. falsified affidavit of the preapplication meeting giving rise to the project, according to two people who were there. replacing naturally affording housing, with market-rate housing -- >> clerk: one minute left. >> is not consistent with the code element. and covering the windows of next door at 1414 taraval, these tenants are under rent control. do wes have a city want to block their light and air with market-rate housing? what do this body and this government stand for? we have an item today to protect the tenants due to covid. sh

st. unifer osara, the missionary settler whom pope francis celebrated here in washington a few years ago to bipartisan applause. he sided with native people over soldiers. ulysses s. grant, the general who crushed the confederacy. the president who used federal force to fight the klan. they, too, have been placed on the historical hit list for the new red guard that nobody elected. mormonments toppled -- more monuments toppled up and down the west coast. but, madam president, there could be no clearer sign take these far-left radicals have severed any connection to a righteous cause of racial justice. they've literally tried to succeed where robert e. lee failed and bring general grant to the ground. now like any cultural revolution, this far-left anger is sparing some heroes of their own. i understand that in seattle a large statue of vladimir lenan stands quite untouched. apparently people claim with a straight face that this communist statue has survived because it is located -- wait for it -- on private property. so the founding father of the mass murdering soviet union watches over

st. francis and these incidents took place in other progressive cities have shaken up many of us to our core. and we know that no place is immune until we stamp out the racism once and for all and something we have to be focused and concentrated on at all time. doing so will take conscious decision-making. we have to consciously make the right choices to keep us on the right path. when i speak to my friend who has mayorbreed because who has grown up in public housing, i value those opinions. i just want to say i take my role as a member of the rule's committee very seriously and at no point have i ever endeavored to rubberstamp opinions or proposals from anyone. and i met with geoff back in april and i didn't know him well other than a biker-to-work day. i don't think anyone could have predicted where we are now and my meeting with geoff i was impressed by how much he believed the police commission has a large role helping the police department build trust and that is something i was focused on and clearly we are lacking that trust and it's imperative that we build it. as he noted as policin
