disappointed and saddened all in one. >> they essentially ought to put a sign that says no mexicans allowed. >> reporter: the silicon naacp referring to the dress code at the old wagon saloon and grill. the sign says, no sideways hats new york large necklaces, grills, chains, no baggy pants and. shiny shirts. >> if it's a joke, it's not funny. if they're trying to accomplish a goal, they've went too far. >> reporter: the president of the naacp expressed his outrage this morning to the general manager. >> as i explained to the gentleman, that message says you do not want african-americans of a certain age. >> reporter: the manager tells us the owner would not let him speak to us on camera, but offcamera, he told me the idea was to filter out bad elements. >> that starts leading you into dangerous territory. >> reporter: marina shea teaches constitutional law at santa clara university, we showed her a picture of the sign. she worries a dress code might

be illegal. >> trying to use proxies for the kinds of people who might be behaving in certain ways gets into slippery territory. >> reporter: the manager agreed to meet with the naacp and the latino leadership alliance to work on the verbiage. the group says they just want jack daniels to be a little more welcoming. >> reporter: admittedly, san jose night life has gotten more violent in the last couple of years here in the downtown area and that sometimes filters into the local restaurants, but critics worry this dress code might make matters worse. live in san jose downtown. update now, a father and son fishing trip ended in tragedy. two boats collided, killing the son, sending the father to the hospital. the coast guard tells us a large motor bode slammed into a smaller boat near candlestick point, knocking the two passengers overboard.

third person in the water. rescuers kept searching until they were sure everyone was out of the water. >> san francisco fire department had divers that went in the water, underneath the overturned vessel, and have cleared the vessel. so the fact that the third victim supposed victim found at home and the fact that we had a visual on the overturned vessel. >> reporter: rescuers say both men were wearing life jackets. they were taken to san francisco general hospital where an emotional family is gathering. the father is in good condition but his son died. the motor boat registered in oregon. the coast guard is investigating the collision. i'm told brisbane police will be assisting. with one boater dead tonight, there could -- it's possible criminal charges could be filed in this case. reporting live in south city, jean elle. a state legislator wants to change california's parole laws

to prevent another kidnapping case like that of jaycee dugard. senator ted gains announced he'll introduce a bill that would undue a california supreme court ruling that requires parole board to consider more than just the original crime. senator gains says who much attention paid to mental health evaluations while people are in prison, something that paved the way for dugard's kidnapper to be released early. the district attorney says law enforcement failed jaycee by failing to see through phillip garrido's ability. >> the biggest problem throughout the mistake is the failure of law enforcement, both state and federal, and local, to identify philip garrido as who he is, a dangerous sexual predator and master manipulator. >> they hope the legislature and the department of corrections will learn from the case and reconsider how lenient they've become with parolees in recent years? we've been throwing around big number when it comes to

washington and the budget. a billion here, a trillion over there, but how about this number for you? $1 billion of your money lost over the last week. let's bring in nbc bay area's business and tech reporter scott budman, here to give us some advice. if this is good investing advice, you have a lane out the door, scott. >> certainly has been a tough week, having lost $1 billion of investor money, raj. it's the price of a growing sense of worry our economy's shrinking after a period of decent growth. now the good news, after all of these bad days, investors took their collective foot off the sell pedal for the day. actually buying stocks this afternoon, and sending the markets to their first winning day in nearly two weeks. so if people are willing to spend again, where to invest? gold is hot but it's going for a record $1,664 an ounce. most stock watchers will tell you in slow times, there are companies doing well, most companies these days can be found here in the bay area.

passengers in the bay area, some democrats, are furious about this. >> reporter: well, that's right. the criticism is that this is government bureaucracy at its worst. here in oakland international airport, there should be about 60 construction workers here on the job. but as you can see, the lock is right here on the gate, and work on a new control tower just isn't happening. a new control tower's taking form at oakland international. but just one-third of the way finished and the work site has gone silent. the contractor says it's losing $6,000 in rental expenses for each day work is not being done. and it's just one of about 200 project across the country now on hold. >> if something's gotten started, they should be able to finish them. it's silly to have something half-done and people sitting around doing nothing. >> reporter: at mineta san jose international airport a 55 million project to extend the taxiway on the tarmac has also

come to a screeching halt. >> so frustrating. we're already to start, everything lined up, all of the crew, all of the contracts, all of the money, all of the permissions, all ready to go except the last piece of paper that we need faa to sign off on and they're not here. >> reporter: with congress on recess and not back until next month, at least 80 construction workers won't be on the job in san jose come september 1st. they're expected to join 23 faa employees in the bay area, already furloughed as a result of the impasse. at sfo two small construction projects are on hold, including the resurfacing of a taxiway. the reason behind all of the stalled project is a disagreement in congress over subsidies for rural airports. some lawmakers are refusing to sign off on faa funding unless subsidies are taken out of the bill. >> i'm pretty disgusted and appalled that they would do that. >> reporter: in the meantime, some faa inspectors are being

asked to work without pay, and to charge their travel expenses to their personal credit cards, to keep the nation's airports operating safely. >> the airports, i think, are for the people to have the best experience and travel to be efficient, and if that's not happening, it's a shame that the congress can't get together and get this done. >> reporter: today, some democrats, including nancy pelosi of san francisco, fired off furious statements about the impasse. pelosi said, quote, speaker boehner should call them the committee leadership to produce legislation that can be approved by unanimous consent by the end of the week. tens of thousands of americans jobs are on the line. now, projects at airports in palo alto and livermore are also on hold. and the faa says the impasse does not affect air traffic controllers or airplane inspects because they're paid out of a separate account. >> thank you, monty. well the taco truck that sat

in the front yard of a home in east san jose has to roll out or else. it's a follow-up to a story we brought you tuesday. an inspector from the city of san jose said the owner is in violation of the rules for preparing and selling food to the public. the inspector says the entrepreneurial chef doesn't have the proper permit. owners of the truck are being asked to stop selling $1 taco, which are popular with neighbors. if they don't, the city says it will be forced to take legal action. >> did you say $1 tacos? >> $1 tacos. >> san francisco has almost everything, restaurants, museums, culture. one thing missing, abundance of live music. why that's about to change. >> from victim to suspect. the search for an abducted teenager turns into a criminal case. at the center, one man who says his generosity toward a teen turned against him. >> tracking the salmonella to the source. we know the brand of ground turkey linked to one death in california. and a different type of game
