i d like to have a moment of silence for mayor lee. i was shocked to hear that he passed away. i personally loved mayor lee, his wife, anita, and his two daughters. the last time i talked to mayor lee, it was not a very nice conversation. but i d like to have a moment of silence for mayor lee, and for that little 8-year-old boy, gabriel, who has murdered by his father because he thought he was gay. so, moment of silence, please. thank you. miss canada, and i have a picture, if you can show it on the overboard, please, 100-year-old woman lived right across the street from ms. breed. in my opinion, was taken with a noose from her house and she died. but after she died, she was left in a cold freezer for one month because the family couldn t afford to get her out of storage to bury her. that s the legacy of lee and breed. no way. clerk: thank you for your public comment. madam president? next speaker, please. um, i guess my condolences to the family for ed lee s passing.
