the devastation. it s just we re looking at the video. now. it s incredible. it is striking jim to see this devastation of close and in person, you know, it s not really an exaggeration to say that there is very little of this town that has remained untouched from the tornado that ripped through here on. uh, the buildings that we re seeing here throughout the area have been reduced to rubble. there are individuals that we smoke into that don t understand how they got out alive, considering so many around them perished. as you mentioned at least 25 people have been killed as a result of the storms that we re continuing the machinery being brought through these areas clear out the records, and it was earlier that i spoke to one of the tornado survivors. ernest hall, who says that he was asleep when the initial storm came through. woken up by a phone call of a family member asking for help to erased across town to a trailer park where we re standing in front of that is among the
San francisco is connected. So, we are making connections with other types of violence and other issues. I feel like the avalos resolution is really focused on institutionalized racism within the Justice System and the Police System and its about a full systems change and cultural change. There are other issues out there also but i think thats the focus. So all be supportive of the supervisors avaloss original motion with appreciation for the amendments but ill still be supportive. I think supervisors kims suggestion to compromise by still mentioning alex is a good one and i be supportive of that if the original motion doesnt go forward in supervisor s moments are successful. To me the most important things are the result as others have said and putting this on record in support of the ferguson action. The ferguson Action Movement statements and the structural changes that are proposed in them to me are the most important things. I know that the heart that went into the drafting of thi
[inaudible] that are being proposed by supervisor . I am willing to go forward if we cannot approve the amendments, if we do not approve the minutes that supervisor is accepting, that we move forward that we dont pass this ordinance but we have on the books the ordinance that i submitted today that i think is a much broader than the one that i submitted last week it was just a work in progress. Thats my proposal. Is that we accept the amendment as a whole. And then we have a vote on the amendment that are being offered by supervisor and then we vote on the underlined ordinance. I do believe we need to pass this ordinance we would need, you both mdm. Clerk this item is on second appearance. It would require a goes to weave the reference to committee and its expose on the item itself. So at this time i think that supervisor autos stated we can take the amendments that been offered in the order they have been received. So, mdm. Clerk lets call well on the mimicked the whole offered by sup
Their own set of experiences and positive and negative that filter into how we decide what will support and what we will not support. My concerns about specifically calling out alex from what i heard from other Community Members concerns about not shedding light on the other lives that have been lost. This is the most recent tragedy. So i can understand that. So im willing to work with supervisor kim on the language on that. But supervisor that are busy last about my amendments are. So, the amendments are pretty pretty substantial. But substantial but pretty selfexplanatory i think. Its on page 3, it starts from line 6 through line 24. Excuse me. Page 1, though whereas clause that starts on line 14 whereas [inaudible] authorized by malcolm xs question the validity of this particular statistic. Back to page 3162 lines 24, the beginning on 96 whereas [reading]. The following [inaudible] every case someone has killed is that a typo . Officer involved shooting however number of [inaudible]
Millions much more with other actions or follow read of africanamericans but im still going to be supportive of the original motion supervisor autos has brought in a really appreciate the comments and the insights and the wisdom that have spoken from the community. Ideal following the lead of africanamericans is really really important to me but i do feel that supervisor comments suggestions have logic behind them, my political sense is its watering down and its taking away the real heart of the alex movement and how San Francisco is connected. So, we are making connections with other types of violence and other issues. I feel like the avalos resolution is really focused on institutionalized racism within the Justice System and the Police System and its about a full systems change and cultural change. There are other issues out there also but i think thats the focus. So all be supportive of the supervisors avaloss original motion with appreciation for the amendments but ill still be su
