thoughtful comment -- i like to thank you for the thoughtful amendment that malcolm heinicke made. it helps. i would like to urge every one of you to get funding to start enforcing the city regulations and to push the mta to get an attorney. i mean, you've got hundreds of them out there. to improve business for taxis. this is your aim -- this is your stated aim by the director. you want more taxis. you want more public transportation. you've got $20 million from us. under this proposal, you will get another $30 million. put some of it into enforcement. tomorrow if not today. you willfá make a happier publi, and you will make a happier taxi industry. thank you. director nolan: next speaker please. >> good afternoon. i have been a luxury driver since 1979. i have had mine medallions since 1996. -- i have had my medallion since 1996. there was a lot of time and effort that went into this, and we agreed to what some would say a rather users speak -- user is -- usurous fee. we agreed to it because it seemed like the city needed the money, and we needed the program for an exit strategy.

malcolm heinicke was going to raise the price back to $200,000. why is he dictating this industry? why is he meeting with people? if this is a true story and if he is running this, all of it is just for nothing. it is sad. they have to lose their money to come here and speak. they have to pay $300,000 when there is no business in the city now. it is a different year now. when the drivers are circling around the city hall and did not come to this meeting, what did you do? you just scratched them and did not pay even one word -- you just crushed them. same thing is going to happen. you are adding 200 more calves next meeting, crushing the drivers, but when the companies came and met with malcolm heinicke and gave him the indication they would go for a lawsuit, the price came back. why not cut $300,000 back to $250,000? why can you not run muni from some other source? why our pocket? why everything for the muni drivers? why the taxi driver money to feed you? you are incapable, or they are making you incapable. >> i guess i do not like very much the mood over the years, but i think if

i first want to say the person who should be running the town hall meetings is malcolm heinicke, and i am not lying. i sunshined some documents which back up some of the things i had to say. you as directors should realize that there is more to stories then just hearing from intermediaries. if you had any direct contact with malcolm heinicke, there may be some ethical issues involved here because malcolm heinicke, according to these e-mails, has had a lot of input to go with implementing policy. there is a difference between creating policy and approving policy compared to how you implement it. the director claims that it was his plan. the documents disagree with your statements today, ed reiskin. they do. there's a few paragraphs. the first as early as august 3. it says "i disagree. i make sure we approve this." also, who wrote this? i believe chris hiyashi had a lot to do with this, but she is supposed to be on leave. according to what was discussed at town hall meetings, the plan was written by somebody other than the staff in the office. also, regarding the waitlist, all current

and was malcolm x's bodyguard. in paris, just a few feet away when he was assassinated. you can go on line in the to see pictures of malcolm a moment after he was shot giving mouth to mouth resuscitation. that man was gene roberts. malcolm true his last breath from an undercover cop. and he used his credentials to join the black panther party and, in fact, became a security officer. the other person who was part of that elite unit was my mentor. became, used, you know, and some military background, but he always was the crazy panther. he was the person that if we talked about organizing a building that was having problems with the landlord to take the money and make repairs and fix the borland and do some things that were, you know, and all the money in escrow, he would be, like, where does the landlord live. let's find out where his mansion is in go burn it down. of course the young brothers were like, yeah. but the person who is aggressive and that person knew is telling you, i know where to get the dynamite, no

the piece was that people, when confronted with malcolm x, always say, "but what did he do?" "what policy did he pass?" and i think that that's a really impoverished way of looking at human progress, you know. we are... not to overdo this word, but spiritual beings. our souls need things, you know. we need to feel better about walking down our streets. we need to feel like we have some sorof ppose, that there's someone out there, you know, who sort of shares us, who reflects how we see the world. so i think there are all sorts of progresses, and, you know, they might not necessarily track, you know, with socioeconomic indicators, but they're real nonetheless. >> hinojosa: i love the title of your memoir, the beautiful struggle, because you're not negating the fact that it was hard. >> right. >> hinojosa: you know, it was difficult to be poor, and the fact that your parents made a decision about giving you that experience of living in a predominantly african-american working-class community. >> right. >> hinojosa: your mom said something really beautiful. she said, "i never wa

and who was malcolm x's bodyguard and, in fact, was just a few feet away when malcolm was assassinated. you can go online, and you can see pictures of malcolm a moment after she he was shot getting mh to mouth resuscitation. that man was gene roberts. malcolm drew his last breath from an undercover cop. and he used those credentials to join the black panther party and, in fact, became a security officer. and the other person who was part of that elite unit was my mentor. he came in, used, you know, that he had some military background, but he always was the crazy panther. he was the person thatwe talked about organizing a building that was having problems with the landlord into a represent strike and showing the tenants how to take that money and make repairs and fix the boiler and do some things that was, you know, and hold the money in escrow, he would be like, well, where does the landlord live? let's find out where his little mansion is and go burn it down. and, of course, the young brothers were like, yeah. but it's that person who's aggressive in the meeting, that person who is,

and malcolm x. he had fierce debates with malcolm x. , and in fact, by 1964 he's refusing to debate malcolm x because he believes that malcolm x has stepped so far out of the mainstream of civil rights leadership. when malcolm started to call for the formation of rifle clubs in 1964, bayard throws his hands up and says that i can't deal with malcolm's demagoguery anymore. i need to focus on something constructive. but your question gets to the, for me, points out a very important fact, and that is that these leaders are not of one mind. they have different strategies, they have different timings in mind, they have a different sense of purpose as well. so don't lump them all together. thank you for your questions. [applause] >> bayard rustin came to -- [inaudible] college in 1947 when i was a freshman and talked about nonviolence. we stayed up all night afterwards tig, and i think many of us -- thinking, and i think many of us were altered in our perspective for the rest of our lives. it was the most

Ñi>> our last two speakers. >> this afternoon, commissioners. you have a nest egg, a golden goose. you got $20 million from the taxi industry. it cannot even run the buses. you understand, i am not talking about what you do to the drivers, what you do to anything. but your massing -- you are messing up the bus lanes. taxis tecolote to get from a to be so it costs more money and there are not enough drivers -- taxis. it cannot enforce the white zones. so the taxis and everybody else double park or triple parks in the whole of the downtown so you have gridlock. why? it is not about money because you could find these people. you could tell the hotels i am sorry, this is not a parking zone. the white zone is for dropping off and picking up. but you cannot do it. you do not care. you're still getting money from us. we do not understand, you're not sending attorneys up to sacramento are talking to other cities on ways to defeat these electronic new meth

>> well, admittedly if i'd only known him from the dopey dad on "malcolm in the middle" i would have had a hard time picturing myself. i was fortunate to have worked with him about a year and a half before he did "malcolm in the middle." he was in an episode of the "x-files" i wrote and he played a very dark character who was kind of an anti-semite and just a general creep, all-around bad guy who was trapped in a car with agent mulder played by david duchovny for like the whole hour. and yet at the end of the hour you had to feel bad when, here comes the spoiler alert, the guy dies at the end of that particular episode. sorry to ruin that for you. and this actor who i did not know up until that point, bryan cranston, did such a marvelous job playing that role, i was so very impressed with his work. he was such a bad guy, so very dramatic and scary and yet you felt sorry at the end when he pass passed away that i knew to myself, this was back in 1999, i knew to myself -- i at that point said to myself i'd better find something for this guy in the future because i want to work with him

i painted the picture of malcolm x. i praise the effort with the girls kissing at city college. basically, this is important. this is a man right here. this is avery. people have been telling you about death and killing today. we are in a community united against violence. go online and get san francisco public defender and 626 and find out what happened to me in court. i said -- saw a judge. ladies and gentlemen, and go over to the library and learn about the treasured strip -- cigar box. this is the beginning of the modern-day global corporations. tobacco, sugar, and slaves. we are closing down a medical marijuana place that people really need. small business, violence, it does not do any of those things. long live the queen. she taught us at the olympics that all countries have to salute the tree. long live the queen in case our kings and queens do not get it right. >> at this time, in general public comment is closed. this is when we go to our adoption counter. >> item 63 a m through 72 are being considered for immediate adoption. this will be acted upon by a single roll cal

it spurred malcolm x to a much more aggressive position on antipolice brutality. he carried that. it was located near harlem. i thought this was a powerful image of the headline there will reads "seven unarmed know grows shot in cold blood by los angeles police." it gives us a historical frame you were born in 1965, right this this is three years before rodney king was born. it certainly gives some richness and texture, did you know about this? >> no. i didn't. but but it's there's been so many films i've seen. i'm always, you know, curious to see that footage and type of bold footage that exists just -- compared to where we are today. >> it echoes your point about the deep foundational faich of urban policing and the repression of, you know, either innocent bystanders, citizens, or politically conscious folks pushing back against the racial status quo in that moment. next slide. you make reference to both the 1965, l.a. rebellion, i'm sorry the 1965 riot, it sort of set the stage for the world you came in to. just in a matter of criminology, it's an interesting space and time to

malcolm glacer is a millionaire and now the fondness of debt is a liability. he used junk bonds in the 1980s. built an empire with real estate, retail, food, local tv stations. he bought the tampa bay buccaneers for $192 million and leveraged taxpayer money for a stadium. in 2005, he bought manchester united around $1.5 billion and saddled the team with $600 million in debt. that debt is a lightning rod of criticism. many fans say the borrowing hurt the team's performance and threatened the future and now malcolm glazer is prooit. he doesn't appear outside of the mansion in palm beach but the three sons have really become the face of the company saying the team is still winning and growing revenues and half of the ipo proceeds or $100 million going to pay down the debt and the rest of it to the family. that's added to the claims that man u is living on borrowed time and borrowed money. sue? >> it's very interesting because the fans of man u are -- they're fierceless devoted to the team so this is either going to work very well for him or not. >> exactly. and i

fans accuse malcolm glazer of ruining man united finances and plunging the club more than half a billion euros into the red. the ipo was supposed to change that, but soccer shares have a poor track record. italy's juventus has slumped by 85% since it went public. another one lost 89% after its ipo. and germany's only publicly listed club lost 74% on the open market. manchester's lackluster ipo suggests that soccer stocks may appeal to die-hard fans, but they cannot fire up investors. rise as we heard earlier, big losses reported in germany's largest steelmaker the end of the week. it says it was 22 million0 the red for the first nine months of its fiscal year. it blames slack growth in large building projects and cutting working hours at the five still making facilities in germany in response. >> the numbers are cause for concern because the steel industry is seen as a bellwether for the economy. >> the hunt for german tax evaders has taken a new twist. >> tax officials in germany say they have evidence that swiss banking giant ubs has been actively assisting tax-dodgers. >> the revelati

it is important that some of you besides malcolm heinicke get some of these questions answered or see for yourself how operations work. not just from one company but maybe several or to go to the town hall meetings or thexd tacf it is existing again. that is the question that should be resolved and you should hold an agenda item. that is the one good thing that nathaniel ford did due to agree the tax exempt it became a useless and a day. regarding these items before you, there was a town hall meeting but the outrage was so terrible. the director decided information needs to get out earlier. with regarding these, there has been little outrage and the impact on the industry as great in some areas. that -- [unintelligible] without more outreach. the average cab driver comes from a country where english is fánot their first language, did not get the american education, and understands the impact that these may have on their ability to do their business and do their job. you're making a lot of these cabdrivers' employees. there's a lot of risk involved by treating these rules and regulati
