And i stand here in front of you with a full display of some of the armory that was collected, turned in by people with the incentive of providing them with some remuneration of these weapons that were in their homes or other types of possession of this. And, of course, some of the ammunition that we will let you see that is not just body piercing, but designed to even be even more destructive. Thats the reason why i have dr. Campbell here. There have been many occasions, doctor, that ive been very thankful for you and your expert way of treating our patients whether firefighters or Police Officers are injured. But he has seen more than he should ever see of young youth who are victims of these bullets and the guns that we are talking about today. And he wants to explain the human side of this with our Public Health department officials. But id like to have further testimony ....

Ability to work on things that would interrupt and intervene earlier in the behavior patterns of people that would be both victims and perpetrators of Violent Crime in our city. To support the Police Department and Law Enforcement system of doing more predictive policing using both data and technology to help us do that. And then, of course, i think the most important part is to organize our communities and work with communitybased organizations, families, religious groups, and everybody thats on the ground to find more ways to intervene in violent behavior out there and utilize resources such as education systems, our Community Jobs programs, others that might allow people to go in different direction. The unfortunate and very tragic incident in connecticut in < ....
Chief suhr. Thank you, mr. Mayor. I want to start off by reassuring everybody that what you saw play out on television, however unimaginable it was, that the heroism and the courage of the teachers at that school and the actions of the officers to respond directly in was a product of training after the columbine incident in colorado. Across this country, all Law Enforcement agencies have been trained not to wait when there is an active shooter, but to go in immediately. And you actually saw that play out on television. And i think that for them doing that coupled with the fact that the teachers did as they were trained, and secured in place versus evacuating those kids into the hallways, had what is a horrific tragedy as far as it went, being far less than it might have been as a result of that training. As the mayor said here in San Francisco, we have also trained to that st ....
Intervene at an earlier stage. We want to do predictive policing. We want to support efforts throughout our community to organize them better so that we can prevent violence. This was at the heart of our work, introducing more support for our Domestic Violence advocates as well that we did just a few weeks ago. That with the heightened awareness of guns and the kinds of things that happen nationally, this is consistent with what were willing to do. So, let me introduce at this time a good partner and the one that will be introducing this at the board, supervisor malia cohen. Thank you. Thank you, mr. Mayor, for your leadership. And chief, thank you for your continuing efforts to be a tremendous advocate and partner. And our collective effort to address gun violence in our city. As the mayor mentioned, the tragic event that occurred at Sandy Hook Elementary School ....
