Bystanders. Pamela osborne is sbak in the neighborhood where that shooting happened last night. What are neighbors saying about the crime . Reporter well, they say this is very upsetting. Where were standing right now say bus stop in the say very busy intersection. We have two day cares over there, a pharmacy, a Catering Company right here. Take a look at that gunfire.

Now, im not going to let my government colleagues off the hook, because we also used to see a lot of senior government officials on the Government Coordinating Council side of the house engaged frequently in that business.

Its got to be a high order type thing. I also want to say, that at the state, local, and federal level, tremendous difference in terms of private sector engagement in Emergency Operation centers and Informati
Transport like what eisenhower had, which was one of the things that apparently convinced him of the need for a system of defense highways. Im not aware that there was any use of interstate 70 for those purposes. It seems to have been, as far as the evidence i have been able to find. There was a lot of talk at those times about the highways being defense highways.

I would not be surprised, but i dont know the dollar values. Another question about president eisenhower
