Theres a debate on whether San Francisco should taek down the columbus statue. San francisco tower draws tourists from around the world every day. Today it was the vandalized statue of columbus. That stole some of the attention. Over the weekend somebody or a group poured red paint over the statue. A public works crew managed to scrub away graffiti that red destroy all monuments of genocide. And kill all colonizers. On monday the statue was drenched in paint. There are better ways to protest. And make the point. We can all agree today is october 14th. While many consider today to be columbus day. Here in San Francisco, its officially. Happy Indigenous People day. Last year the board of supervisors voted to make the change in a move that recognized the discrimination and violence against native americans. We have been robbed or not acknowledged as we rightly should be. Families celebrated the day. Where the topic of the defiled statue came up. We need to be better educated about the history. Shod g to th who respect to the people who the land belong to. Statues have been vandalized across the country. This is in chula vista. Red paint was also used. In rhode island.

Thursday is the 30th an verse rift of the 1989 earthquake. October 17, 1989. You know exactly where you were when that quake hit. Lt magnitude 6. 9 killed 63 people. Most victims from the day died after the upper deck at the freeway claptsed in oakland. Others survived thanks to First Responders and doctors. Including an oakland surgeon. Who saved a little boys life. Doctor james has been a surgeon at the Childrens Hospital for 40 years. On october 17, 1989, he was working at the hospital when the bay area shook. Put together a group of people, myself and Emergency Department physicians. One of the respiratory therapists. Got equipment and then met by a motorcycle escort from Oakland Police and drove down to the structure. The structure was extraordinary. Chaos. The First Responder up there came down was very panicked. And she came up to me said that there were children trapped. You have to go up there. He climbed up a firefighter ladder. Cars were smashed under tons of concrete. Inside one of the cars, two dead women. And a six yeerd boy. Boy was still alive. He was almost unconscious. Pretty much so. He was trapped in the backseat. It was obvious that we were going to have to do something pretty dramatic. And pretty radical. To be able to extra kate him. Lying on my stomach i ended up then amputating his leg through his knee. After the amputation the boy was rushed to the hospital. He performed several surgeries on him and he survived. People asked what would you do if another event like that happened. And it would be i would hope and think that not with my training or experience. Just as a human being. Or a person. That you would respond in that way. I think you dont really know until it happens. A lot of heros from that day. You can see an encore presentation of the documentary series. 30 years later. This saturday again at 4 00 p. M. You can watch the entire episode online. Its a really well done earthquakes. We talk about magnitude and intensity. Explainer about the difference of the terms. I want us to be focusing on magnitude and intensity. Just for the simple fact we often hear about magnitude. And intensity is left far in the background. So the big picture you do not have to be direct tli hon a major earthquake fault or right near it and you could have very violent damage. Magnitude. We know about magnitude. Thats the amount of energy released right at the source. The epicenter. The thing we often dont hear about too much and try to train yu better on this, is the shaking intensity. This is based on the shaking scale. This is how far out the violent during an earthquake. I can show you this better. To the weather wall. And well get a look at a 7. 0 simulation. If an earthquake occurred. Near richmond. At the epicenter. Intensity olent shaking. Scale. Look at how the violent shaking could spread of course to oakland. As expected. Maybe back to fremont. Look at livermore. You could get violent shaking close to what oakland has. I think the big message on this map is everyone has to be prepared even if you are not directly on the fault. Or not next to it. Certainly some startling and eye opening information on this. Its all about the shake intensity map. And we are going to be showing that more as we get quakes in the future. Tomorrow night a look at the earthquake and have more particulars behind that on the damage that happened in San Francisco and why. And ill be back in about eighth minutes. Well be highlights stories from that day in october. 30 years ago. And the lasting impact. Head to our web site for complete coverage. We have a special page for all of the content.

Officers say you can remain anonymous. California has just become the first state in the country to require middle and high schools to push back school start times. Governor newsom signed the legislation into law. The change does come with controversy. Live in the willow glen neighborhood. Reaction from students and administrators and parents. Students here start class at 7 35 a. M. But under this new law Governor Newsom signed, theyll start at 8 30 a. M. That extra 55 minutes is designed to let them get more sleep to perform better in school. Reporter when the alarm goes off, many students feel like her. I wake up and i dont want to wake up. That may change. Now that governor signed a new law that public middle schools in california start no earlier than 8 00 a. M. And High School Start no earlier than 8 30. Sounds good to her. I have a lot of home work. I can stay up later and get school on time. And not be tired. Some working parents with long commutes are concerned about managing the later drop off time. Other parents applaud the move. More pleasant. Theyll learn better. Theyll be able to do a better job at whatever theyre trying. Whether its sports or schools. Or being nicer to parents. The new times will be implemented in 2022. Giving administrators time to make the change. One of the benefits is students that get breakfast at the school site will have a chance to do that with less pressure. Drop off will be flexible. Kids can get the important meal of the day and get into the classroom. The California Teachers Association opposed this law. Saying it will negatively impact working families especially families that work in the service industry. Or laborers. Sfwl. Thank you. Famously crooked street is still free to drive on. For now. Over the weekend the governor vetoed a bill that would have t driver up to 10 teet. The bill was designed to limit t on the street. Today several residents told us they support the veto. They didnt think it would work. The only thing that works is the normal flow of things. It will be longer lines. Less people will come. And maybe eventually somebody will straighten this street out and make it a street from the way it used to be. Of course its a hassle. I dont know what the toll would have done. Besides cause more stops at the beginning. Getting money from people. He hopes to hear from residents about other ideas to reduce the problems that come with the tourist traffic and locals. And wants to sit down with the governor to find a solution. Less than a year away from having to get real id. Now is the best time to do it. You must have a real id by october 1 of next year.
