GUN CONTROL ISSUE: HIGH PERFORMANCE RIFLES

Hilbert Morales EL OBSERVADOR

ollowing the three community mass shootings at the Gilroy Garlic Festival, El Paso Walmart, and Dayton Business District, there has been an intense outcry demanding that the U.S. Congress enact Gun Control Legislation. This approach runs right into the NRA's efforts to promote gun sales as the foremost lobbyist for the firearms industry. Also consider that the U.S. Supreme Court's recent case of District of Columbia vs. Heller, established the right of an individual to own and keep guns to protect his/her home, property and family. This nation does need federal legislation to further define and refine the 2nd Amendment which reads as follows: “A wellregulated militia is necessary to provide security to an independent free State, the right of the people to own and keep guns shall not be infringed.” It has already been established that all weapons regulated and used by the militia (law enforcement agencies and the military) are those designed with firepower capabilities necessary for combat. High performance rifles, such as the AK-16, is an example of such a high capacity, high performance military weapon which the gun manufacturers have sold to civilians. Today there are more than 10 million such weapons already

owned and kept by their owners who live in any and all communities. All these weapons need to be licensed and their purchase needs to be regulated using permits which require a buyer's personal assessment. Local law enforcement agencies need to know how many exist and where they are located. Why does any civilian need to own and keep any highperformance high capacity weapon such as an AK-16? This weapon was specifically designed to provide combat infantry advantageous firepower. It is classified as a military weapon. An analysis of the three recent community mass shootings (Gilroy, El Paso, and Dayton) reveals that the murderous firing of high-performance high capacity rifles were used by the perpetrators to kill 35 individuals within 45 seconds. In these three cases, the perpetrators were neutralized by being killed by local security police within one minute after these mass killings were initiated. In addition, during these incidents, additional bystanders were wounded and several needed medical care or hospitalization. The real issues is the following: The ownership and keeping of military grade high capacity weaponry such as AK-16 rifles need to be monitored and regulated using ownership licenses and purchasing permits which require periodic personal character assessments plus at least a three day waiting period which enables this due process procedure to be done effectively. An

killings happen per year nationally. To mitigate the reality this nation faces when considering experiencing 250 community mass shootings during the first 210 days of 2019, the U.S. Congress must enact appropriate legislation which establishes uniform federal standards of gun ownership, keeping and use. The right of the people to own and keep guns (sidearms, shotguns and hunting rifles) shall remain uninfringed in keeping with the 2nd Amendment. It is important to enact a federal law which requires that any and all military weapons must be licensed (and purchased with permits requiring character assessment). The personal ownership and keeping of these types of highperformance high capacity rifles (such as the AK-16) used in these recent community mass shootings would then become unlawful. Federal laws would enable uniform national standards of ownership and keeping of these guns. Federal laws must also make it unlawful to own and keep a military grade weapon such as an AK-16 high performance high capacity rifle. These rifles were designed to provide combat infantry with a high firepower advantage which is not needed by civilians. And it makes sense to store these weapons in a locked cabinet which is childproof. These days our nation has already more guns than residents as an outcome of the NRA being a very effective gun sales promoter and advocate. Any attempt by gun safety advocates is immediately

opposed effectively by the NRA and its lobbyists who have already influenced members of the U.S. Congress along with many local legislators and elected officials.

true. Records reveal that those incidents involving mental health challenged individuals is less than 1%. More humans are killed in vehicular accidents than by gun-shootings.

The NRA membership must advocate their emphasis on gun safety education and competitive marksmanship. These were the initial objectives of the NRA when organized during 1871 after the Civil War.

A recommended program which any jurisdiction could undertake is to authorize and fund the buy-back of guns in their community. In those communities having criminal hot-spots, buy-back programs may be an effective way to reduce the excessive number of guns already available in that community.

Suicides are the main cause of death in this nation. Many suicides involved the use of a gun. Therefore, if access to a gun can be reduced or eliminated, many suicides could be prevented. Suicide attempts using a gun are too often very final with few failures. Guns in homes need to be stored in a locked cabinet that is childproof. This alone would reduce the accidental gun shootings that happen in homes when a child finds and plays with a gun which was improperly stored, or a distraught family member makes use of a gun. The main point is that guns owned and kept at home need to always be stored in a secured locked cabinet which requires being unlocked to provide access. Individuals with personal history of violence and schizophrenic paranoia need to never have access to or possess a gun. Individuals with mental health and behavioral challenges have a documented record of very low gun shooting incidents. It is simply inappropriate to blame those with mental and behavioral health challenges with being a major cause of gun-shootings. It is simply not

n mayo pasado, cuando un simpatizante de Donald Trump sugirió en uno de los eventos políticos del presidente en Florida, disparar contra los inmigrantes de las caravanas centroamericanas, el presidente estadounidense en lugar de condenar el comentario, lo coronó con una broma colectiva: “Uno sólo puede salir con eso en el Panhandle”, dijo en alusión a la zona geográfica de la Florida que semeja el mango de un sartén. El presidente pareció no recordar que, apenas un año antes, Florida fue el escenario de una de las masacres escolares más sangrientas en la historia del país, cuando el desquiciado adolescente Nikolas Cruz de 19 años asesino a 17 de sus compañeros en la Escuela Preparatoria Marjory Stoneman Douglas. A la sensibilidad presidencial le pareció que no era necesario condenar expresiones de violencia irracional.

canos como chivos expiatorios de los problemas de Estados Unidos, llamándonos violadores y traficantes de drogas, la descalificación de las personas de color ha sido una de las armas políticas favoritas del ahora presidente de los Estados Unidos.

It is my understanding that several laws were enacted by the U.S. Congress when influenced by the NRA: One law prohibits the collection of information involving gun-shootings by any federal agency. A second related law prohibits the Department of Justice from collecting a national database. Both laws need to be reversed and special interest lobbyists must be prohibited from advocating such laws which prevent the collection of a national information database. Such a national database is essential to the formulation and creation of effective gun safety programs. The main gun safety issue right now is to deal with high performance high capacity rifles used by perpetrators of community mass killings. Any program which reduces access to a gun reduces gun-accidents. This is a national crisis requiring immediate and targeted resolution. No military weapon needs to be owned by a civilian!

de color, como las 4 legisladoras demócratas a las que invitó a regresar a sus países de origen, a pesar de que tres de ellas nacieron en los Estados Unidos, o como cuando atacó al legislador afroamericano Elijah Cummings.

la masacre en el Wal-Mart de El Paso, Texas, a pesar de que un “manifiesto” del presunto atacante utiliza un lenguaje similar al del presidente cuando se refiere a la “Invasión hispana” de Texas, un concepto que denota la ignorancia suprema del autor del mamotreto.

aumentaron un 17% durante el primer año de la presidencia de Trump, y en un 24% contra los hispanos. En los condados donde Trump realizó mítines políticos, los reportes de crímenes de odio han incrementado en un 266% en comparación con aquellos condados de tamaño similar donde el presidente no ha hecho acto de presencia. Leyendo desde un teleprompter, el presidente salió al paso en la masacre de El Paso asegurando que el país debe condenar el racismo y la supremacía blanca. Encomiables palabras, pero carentes de trascendencia si no van acompañadas de contenido concreto.

Trump debe ahora encabezar moralmente una campaña contra el extremismo doméstico y por mayores controles a las armas de fuego. Es la única forma de mostrar que aprendió su lección, que sea o no sea racista, tiene el liderazgo para representar los mejores valores de este país y no sus peores instintos.

5 MANERAS EN QUE LOS PADRES PUEDEN AYUDAR A LOS NIÑOS A SER ELLOS MISMOS

5 WAYS PARENTS CAN HELP THEIR KIDS BE THEMSELVES

omo padre, es muy emocionante ver a sus hijos crecer y desarrollar sus propias personalidades e intereses únicos. Mientras los niños son pequeños y exploran el mundo que los rodea, los padres siempre buscan formas de alentar el crecimiento de sus hijos y de apoyarlos en la búsqueda de actividades que los inspiren y les ayuden a expresar sus diferencias individuales. ¿Cuáles son las formas más positivas de influir en los niños? Dejándolos ser ellos mismos y animándolos todo el tiempo. 1. Deje que los niños elijan sus actividades En estos días, las opciones para las clases y actividades pueden ser abrumadoras, así que elija un número razonable de opciones para sus hijos, pero asegúrese de que representen una variedad de intereses, desde artes, ciencias y matemáticas, deportes y más, y déjelos elegir qué les interesa más. Si necesita limitar sus opciones, lleve a sus hijos a una biblioteca o librería, explique dónde encontrar qué tipos de libros y vea hacia qué gravitan. ¿Qué tipo de libros los intrigan? Esto mantendrá las opciones a un nivel manejable. Luego, permita que sus hijos prueben las actividades que les interesan y vean qué les pega. 2. Anime a los niños a seguir sus intereses, donde sea que vayan Una vez que sus hijos expresen interés en algo, aliente la búsqueda, incluso si es algo que no esperaba. Sus hijos pueden elegir un interés que no se preste fácilmente a clubes o clases después de la escuela en su área. Entonces, ¿cómo puedes ayudarlos? Fomentar su curiosidad. Ayúdelos a encontrar libros y sitios web para niños sobre los temas que les gustan. Haga una búsqueda en Internet de recursos locales o pídales a sus amigos que lo ayuden a encontrar un adulto confiable que puedan seguir para aprender sobre una carrera o pasatiempo relacionado. Aprenda sobre el tema usted mismo, para que pueda ayudar a sus hijos a explorarlo más a fondo. 3. Ayude a los niños a expresarse a través de la decoración de su habitación. La próxima vez que su habitación necesite una renovación, deje que los niños ayuden a elegir el color y el esquema de diseño, dentro de lo razonable. Permitir que los niños elijan imágenes para exhibir u organizar un estante de tesoros y chucherías también les permite expresar sus intereses y su estilo personal. ¿Lo positivo? ¡Es más probable que mantengan una habitación limpia si la ayudan a decorarla! 4. Permita que los niños escojan sus propios estilos de ropa. No hay mejor manera de ayudar a los niños a expresar su propio estilo personal que

Dentro de un presupuesto aceptable, que también puede ser una experiencia de aprendizaje, vaya a su tienda favorita y deje que sus hijos elijan algo de su ropa, dentro de las pautas que establezca con anticipación (como necesitar una cierta cantidad de camisas o pantalones para los días escolares). Nuevamente, si las opciones son abrumadoras, limítelas, pero aun así permita una opción. Pregunte: "¿Cuál de estas tres camisas te gusta más?" 5. Apoye a los niños en sus esfuerzos por ayudar a otros Internet está lleno de historias sobre niños que aman ayudar a otros, desde un puesto de limonada que recauda fondos para una buena causa hasta niños que hacen buenas acciones para ayudar a un vecino o amigo. A los niños les encanta marcar la diferencia, y usted puede apoyar sus esfuerzos y actuar como un modelo a seguir haciendo la diferencia también. Alentar a sus hijos a ser amables, tener confianza y, lo más importante, ser ellos mismos puede ser la parte más gratificante de la crianza de los hijos.

s a parent, it's so exciting to see your children grow and develop their own unique personalities and interests. While children are young and exploring the world around them, parents are always looking for ways to encourage their children’s growth, and to support them in finding activities that inspire kids and help them express their individual differences. What are the most positive ways to influence kids? By letting them be themselves and cheering them on, all the way. 1. Let kids choose their activities These days the choices for classes and activities can be overwhelming, so pick a reasonable number of choices for your children, but make sure they represent a variety of interests, from the arts, science and math, sports and more — and let them choose what interests them the most. If you need to narrow down their choices, take your kids to a library or bookstore, explain where to find what types of books, and see what they gravitate toward. What kinds of books

intrigue them? This will keep the choices to a manageable level. Then allow your children to sample from the pursuits that interest them and see what sticks. 2. Encourage kids to follow their interests — wherever they go Once your kids express an interest in something, encourage the pursuit, even if it's something you didn't expect. Your children may choose an interest that doesn’t easily lend itself to afterschool clubs or classes in your area. So how can you help them? Encourage their curiosity. Help them find kid-friendly books and websites on the subjects they like. Do an internet search for local resources or ask friends to help you find a trustworthy adult they can shadow to learn about a related career or hobby. Learn about the topic yourself, so you can help your children explore it further. 3. Help kids express themselves through their room decor Next time their bedroom needs a refresh, let children help pick out the color and design scheme — within reason. Allowing children to choose pictures to display or to arrange a shelf of treasures and knickknacks also lets them express their interests and personal style. The upside? They may be more likely to keep a room clean if they helped to decorate it! 4. Allow kids to pick their own clothing styles There’s no better way to help children express their own personal style than allowing them choices about what they wear. Within an acceptable budget — which can also be a learning experience — go to your favorite store and let your children choose some of their clothing, within guidelines you set ahead of time (such as needing a certain number of shirts or pants for school days). Again, if the options are overwhelming, limit them, but still allow a choice. Ask, “Which one of these three shirts do you like best?” 5. Support kids in their efforts to help others The internet is full of stories about kids who love to help others, from a lemonade stand raising funds for a good cause to kids doing good deeds to help a neighbor or friend. Kids love to make a difference, and you can support their efforts as well as acting as a role model by making a difference, too. Encouraging your kids to be kind, be confident and most importantly, to be themselves can be the most rewarding part of parenting.

y de servicio al prójimo. Ayudaba a pobres, a desamparados y a animales indefensos.

anta Clara de Asís, es una santa muy venerada desde hace muchos siglos atrás, su forma de ser piadosa y bondadosa durante su vida, sus hechos y virtudes se expandieron por todo el mundo. Poco después de su fallecimiento fue canonizada como santa de la iglesia. Los fieles dan testimonio de una cantidad innumerable de milagros recibidos, por medio de su culto y devoción. En la actualidad, se recomienda rezarle novenas y ofrendarle velas blancas y flores blancas. Es una santa precursora de muchas bondades, ayuda a los fieles a aclarar el destino, auxilia cuando hay conflictos y propicia la paz entre personas que han tenido rencillas. Si ha de tomar una decisión importante o definitiva, acuda a Santa Clara. De ella se han escrito una gran variedad de libros que reseñan sus dones espirituales. Se dice también que ayuda a limpiar el aura y las energías, desvaneciendo y neutralizando vibras negativas que puedan acechar a los creyentes. Y una de sus máximas virtudes es el ayudar a los fieles, a purificar los sentimientos y el espíritu. Benditas sean todas sus fortalezas.

Cuando San Francisco murió y su cuerpo fue llevado adentro de la capilla, Clara lo lavó con sus lágrimas y cubrió la sagrada estigma con el candor de sus rezos. Veintiséis años después, cuando estaba en su lecho de muerte, se escuchó un susurro que exclamó “Parte en paz, pues el camino que has seguido es el bueno” San Francisco de Asís, era quien había venido para guiarla en su jornada al cielo misericordioso del Creador.

Su historia relata que fue la hija mayor del Conde de Sasso-Rosso, Clara era una niña dotada de virtudes extraordinarias y muy devota a la oración. A la edad de dieciocho años, escuchó a San Francisco de Asís predicar, y por ello, decidió dejar su casa para vivir una vida religiosa. San Francisco le dio refugio, le instruyó en la vida religiosa y le proporcionó una vestimenta rústica de lana color café, como su vestimenta de ese día en adelante. Años más tarde, Clara fundó la Orden de las Damas Pobres, o Claras Pobres, como se les conocía, donde las monjas andaban descalzas, hablaban solamente cuando era necesario y no poseían propiedad alguna. Órdenes que aún prevalecen como también, "La Orden de las Clarisas” Clara era una “santa entre las santas” siendo humilde, piadosa, encantadora, cortés, sencilla, noble y optimista. Pasaba gran parte de la noche en oración, y después de sus devociones, se ocupaba en labores manuales

Peticiones: Se le pide para que aclare nuestro camino, nuestro destino y nuestro porvenir; aclarar dudas y descubrir, quiénes son nuestros amigos verdaderos. Su fecha de celebración es el día 11 de agosto. ORACIÓN A SANTA CLARA DE ASÍS Bendita Santa Clara de Asís, acudo a tu presencia en necesidad de entendimiento. Ayúdame a descifrar con sabiduría los misterios que vislumbra mi destino. De igual manera, permíteme asimilar con claridad, el propósito que Dios me tiene reservado y en momentos de indecisión y duda; sé tú, la luz que me guíe por el buen camino. Dulce y benefactora santa entre las santas, bendita sea tu dulce misión en los misterios de la vida eterna. Amén.

MONEY FLIP OR FLOP? HOW TO AVOID FALLING FOR ONLINE SCAMS BPT

ENGLISH

cammers are always cooking up creative new ways to separate people from their money. The sad reality is that it often works. The latest schemes involve so-called "money flipping," and it's showing up in consumers' newsfeeds on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and even via text messaging.

ESPAÑOL

os estafadores están siempre pensando en nuevas formas creativas de despojar a la gente de su dinero. La triste realidad es que, a menudo, se salen con la suya. Los más recientes tipos de delitos consisten en el llamado money flipping (potenciación monetaria), que aparece en el contenido noticioso para el consumidor en Twitter, Instagram, Facebook e incluso por mensajes de texto.

Keep these things in mind when you see an enticing post or are randomly approached by someone about any form of money flipping or “get rich quick” schemes:

Cuando veas un anuncio atractivo, o te contacta alguien proponiéndote alguna forma fraudulenta de potenciación de dinero o de “hacerse rico rápidamente”, ten en cuenta lo siguiente:

1. Trust your gut

1. Confía en tu intuición

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. You can ignore the testimonials with photos of big piles of cash, the fancy cars and the flashy jewels they displayed with captions of their "success" — scammers may tell you that they work for a money transmitter and have "tricks" on how to double your money. However, monetary systems cannot be "manipulated" by adding a few "extra 0s" to any transaction to turn a small investment into big money in minutes. Cons claim they will keep a percentage of the profit as commission, but as soon as a victim sends the upfront investment money, they will unfriend or block you on social media, not answer texts or calls and disappear with your dough without a trace.

Si la proposición te parece demasiado buena para ser cierta, probablemente tengas razón. Ignora los “testimonios personales” ilustrados con fotos de grandes montones de dinero, lujosos automóviles y joyas que le muestren con textos al pie que demuestran sus “éxitos”. Los estafadores te asegurarán que funcionan en el caso de un emisor de dinero, y que tienen “trucos” para duplicar la suma en cuestión. Sin embargo, los sistemas monetarios no pueden ser “manipulados” añadiéndoles unos cuantos “ceros extras” a cualquier transacción, en un intento por convertir una pequeña inversión en una millonada en cuestión de minutos. Los delincuentes advierten que se quedarán con un porcentaje de la ganancia en calidad de comisión, pero en cuanto les envíes el dinero de tu inversión por adelantado, te cancelarán como “amigo” o te bloquearán en los medios sociales, no responderán a los mensajes de texto o las llamadas, y desaparecerán con el dinero sin dejar rastro.

2. Don’t be fooled by a text from a “friend” Even if a text or SMS appears to be from someone you know, if someone’s asking you for money for any reason, you should think twice before taking action. If you really think it’s from a friend or a social media acquaintance, contact them directly in another way (by phone, via email or in person) to confirm the situation. Chances are that it’s really a hacker who is masquerading as someone you really know to try to convince you to take the bait. 3. Use your head Does it seem realistic that someone could turn your $200 into $2,000 by the end of the day? If it were that easy, surely everyone would be doing it. If it doesn't make sense to you, that's because it's nonsense. While common sense should tell us that this is a scam, you should also consider how it would be legal if it did work. In this instance, there is no logical, legal way that such a scam could be effective and legitimate. Never let your emotions blind you to these facts. Even if it were possible to modify the amount of a transfer, it would be criminal to defraud a legitimate business by participating in this scheme. Never invest in something you don't totally understand.

D ow

n to w n S a n J o s e

FARM ’ K E T E R S MA R 4. Remember that you don't really know who you're talking to

Even if the person posting on social media or messaging you says that they work in the financial industry, or that they've successfully made wads of cash and are just sharing their good fortune out of the kindness of their heart, remember that you have no idea who that person really is, even if they insist they want to get you a good deal or help you get rich quick. 5. Never click any links or give out personal information Someone trying to scam you on Instagram or any other social media site will often lure you into a continuing conversation over text or SMS, then try to get you to click a link to a compromised site — or may even try to get you to reveal personal info like your bank account or Social Security number. Anyone asking you for your money or sensitive financial details is not a giver, they're just a taker.

3. Usa el sentido común ¿Te parece real que alguien pueda convertir tus $200 en $2,000 en cuestión de horas? Si fuera tan fácil, todos lo harían. Si bien el sentido común debería advertirnos que se trata de una estafa, también habría que considerar la legalidad de la transacción en caso de que funcionara. En este caso, no hay forma lógica ni legal de que tal estafa pueda ser efectiva y legítima. Nunca dejes que tus emociones te impidan ver esas realidades. Incluso si fuese posible modificar la cantidad de una transferencia, sería un delito engañar a un negocio legítimo participando en ese fraude. Nunca inviertas en nada que no comprendas en su totalidad. 4. Recuerda que no sabes realmente con quién estás hablando Incluso si la persona que coloca el aviso en los medios sociales o te envía un mensaje asegure que trabaja en la industria financiera, o que ha ganado montones de dinero por solo compartir su buena suerte con la bondad de su corazón, recuerda que no tienes idea de quién es realmente esa persona, aunque te insista en que quiere beneficiarte con una gran oportunidad, o ayudarte a hacerte rico rápidamente. 5. Nunca cliquees en ningún enlace desconocido ni proporciones información personal Cualquiera que intente estafarte en Instagram o cualquier otro sitio de medios sociales, tratará de sostener una conversación continua mediante mensajes de texto o SMS, y luego intentará que cliquees en un enlace que te llevará a un sitio fraudulento. O también podría pedir que le proporciones información personal como el número de tu cuenta bancaria o del Seguro Social. Cualquiera que te pida dinero o detalles financieros sensibles no te dará nada. Por el contrario, te despojará de lo que tienes. Potencia tus ideas, tus proyectos, ¡pero no “potencies” ese dinero que has ganado con tanto esfuerzo! No le proporciones nunca dinero a nadie que te prometa ganancias rápidas y fáciles. El dinero gratuito no existe.

Flip burgers, flip pancakes — just do not try to flip your hard-earned cash! Never give money to anyone promising to make you quick and easy money. There is no such thing as free money.

TRUMP IMMIGRATION POLICY: AN ARTIFICIAL CRISIS?

Suzanne Potter California News Service

AN DIEGO - Close observers of the California/Mexico border claim the Trump administration is manipulating migrant policy to create a crisis - with tragic results. Fernando Garcia, executive director of the Border Network for Human Rights, has been close to the issues for 20 years and said more people have sought asylum in past years. Garcia said he believes the difference now is that Trump is intentionally creating a racially charged conflict for political ends, and added that an obvious step would have been to hire more asylum officers and immigration-court judges to speed up deportation or asylum. "That didn't happen," he said. "The administration saw an opportunity to actually create what I believe this administration is good at - to create chaos, to make it appear as a crisis." Trump regularly describes migrants as an "invasion" made up of criminals. That view of America under siege also showed up in the writings of the man accused in this weekend's El Paso shooting. The president has said his crackdown aims to protect American jobs and reduce crime. Federal immigration agencies had not replied to emailed questions by deadline. In the past,

the Department of Homeland Security has blamed a lack of funds for the desperate and overcrowded conditions of migrants in detention. However, Garcia pointed out that the White House sees no problem requesting funds for a border wall. "He got billions of dollars for infrastructure," Garcia said, "so there is no way that they didn't have money to feed children or to have more asylum officers." Several studies have shown that immigrants actually create more jobs than they take, and other research concludes they can help save the Social Security and Medicare systems by paying in more than they take out. But Garcia said the emotional battle over migration could help determine the nation's future for decades - much as other migrants did at the beginning of the last century.

"Ellis Island defined the character of the nation," he said, "but this is the question what kind of nation we're going to have? The acceptance that America is not that white any longer; or we're going to have a border that incarcerates children, puts immigrant families in concentration camps." Also this week, immigrants rights' groups sued the administration to stop a policy that fasttracks deportation for any undocumented person who can't prove they've lived in the United States for the past two years.

POLÍTICA MIGRATORIA DE TRUMP: ¿UNA CRISIS ARTIFICIAL?

Suzanne Potter California News Service

AN DIEGO - Observadores cercanos de la frontera entre California y México afirman que la administración Trump está manipulando la política migratoria para crear una crisis, con resultados trágicos. Fernando García, director ejecutivo de la Red Fronteriza de Derechos Humanos, ha estado cerca de los problemas durante 20 años y dijo que más personas han solicitado asilo en los últimos años. García dijo que cree que la diferencia ahora es que Trump está creando intencionalmente un conflicto racialmente cargado para fines políticos, y agregó que un paso obvio habría sido contratar más oficiales de asilo y jueces de tribunales de inmigración para acelerar la deportación o el asilo. "Eso no sucedió", dijo. "La administración vio la oportunidad de crear realmente aquello en lo que creo que esta administración es buena: crear caos, hacer que parezca una crisis". Trump describe regularmente a los migrantes como una "invasión" compuesta por delincuentes. Esa visión de Estados Unidos bajo asedio también apareció en los escritos del hombre acusado en el tiroteo de El Paso de este fin de semana. El presidente ha dicho que su represión tiene como objetivo proteger los empleos estadounidenses y reducir la delincuencia. Las agencias federales de inmigración no respondieron a las preguntas enviadas por correo electrónico antes de la fecha límite. En

el pasado, el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional ha culpado a la falta de fondos por las condiciones desesperadas y hacinadas de los migrantes detenidos. Sin embargo, García señaló que la Casa Blanca no ve ningún problema para solicitar fondos para un muro fronterizo.

"Obtuvo miles de millones de dólares para infraestructura", dijo García, "así que no hay forma de que no tengan dinero para alimentar a los niños o para tener más oficiales de asilo". Varios estudios han demostrado que los inmigrantes en realidad crean más empleos de los que toman, y otra investigación concluye que pueden ayudar a salvar los sistemas de Seguridad Social y Medicare al pagar más de lo que obtienen. Pero García dijo que la batalla emocional sobre la migración podría ayudar a determinar el futuro de la nación durante décadas, al igual que lo hicieron otros migrantes a principios del siglo pasado.

"Ellis Island definió el carácter de la nación", dijo, "pero esta es la pregunta: ¿qué tipo de nación vamos a tener? La aceptación de que Estados Unidos ya no es tan blanco; o vamos a tener una frontera que encarcela a niños, coloca a las familias inmigrantes en campos de concentración ". También esta semana, grupos de derechos de los inmigrantes demandaron a la administración para detener una política que acelere la deportación de cualquier persona indocumentada que no pueda probar que ha vivido en los Estados Unidos durante los últimos dos años.

Wilderness aficionados want to limit cell service at iconic national parks like Yellowstone. Photo Credit: Pixabay

Roddy Scheer & Doug Moss EARTHTALK

ell service in national parks has become a flashpoint in recent years as cellular providers compete to blanket the U.S. with coverage—even in remote, traditionally off-grid areas. On one side of this most modern of environmental debates stand wilderness buffs, who liken letting cell towers into national parks as no different from letting other forms of industrial development into these most sacred of wild and natural places. On the other side are those who say cell coverage in otherwise off-grid areas will help attract a new generation of (screen-addicted) young people to our parks and wildlands while also making it easier for first responders to save the lives of those who get into trouble in the backcountry. “Cell phone towers have sprouted up in national parks across the country because the National Park Service (NPS) lacks any coherent policy and instead lets telecommunications companies decide where and how many towers will be constructed,” says Jeff Ruch of the non-profit Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), which has been leading the charge against expanding cell service on public lands. “As a result, the incessant chirp of the cell phone can be heard in the wild backcountry as well as at iconic places like Old Faithful.” To date, only four out of 401 national park units (Golden Gate, Rock Creek Park, Lake Mead, and Yellowstone) have adopted a plan for cell towers or wireless communication within their boundaries. At Yellowstone, the first national park in the U.S. system and the second largest in the Lower 48, park managers have recommended a moratorium on the

installation of new wireless infrastructure and reducing or relocating some cellular installations that are visible to park visitors. The CellularMaps.com website reports that NPS has restricted any new or relocated facilities to “provide no more cellular coverage than is already available and no service can be expanded into designated Wilderness areas.” But elsewhere, NPS has been quietly working with cellular providers to greatly expand “connectivity” inside park boundaries—not just at visitor centers but along park roads and at trailheads. “This stealth scheme to wire our national park system has advanced without public involvement,” reports Ruch. “It will mean more ugly cell towers marring park vistas and ‘spill-over’ coverage in wilderness and backcountry.” “Part of the point of wilderness is the ability to be disconnected and feel alone, but if somebody on the same trail can order a pizza, or sell stock, or chase Pokemon, that takes away from the visitor experience,” he says. While some cellular providers have expressed interest in directing their signals away from backcountry areas, PEER and others consider it to be too little, too late—and would instead prefer binding legislation that forces parks and companies to work together to make sure at least the wildest and remotest areas are free of cell signals. “Parks should remain unplugged from the modern world,” says Ruch. “Experiencing the wonders of nature should not require a smartphone.” CONTACTS: PEER, www.peer.org; CellularMaps.com, www.cellularmaps.com.

Los aficionados al desierto quieren limitar el servicio celular en parques nacionales icónicos como Yellowstone. Photo Credit: Unsplash

Roddy Scheer & Doug Moss EARTHTALK

l servicio celular en los parques nacionales se ha convertido en un punto de inflexión en los últimos años a medida que los proveedores celulares compiten para cubrir los EE. UU. Con cobertura, incluso en áreas remotas, tradicionalmente fuera de la red. A un lado de este debate medioambiental más moderno se encuentran los aficionados a la naturaleza salvaje, que consideran que dejar que las torres celulares entren en los parques nacionales no es diferente de permitir que otras formas de desarrollo industrial entren en estos lugares naturales y salvajes más sagrados. Por otro lado, están aquellos que dicen que la cobertura celular en áreas que de otra manera estarían fuera de la red ayudará a atraer a una nueva generación de jóvenes (adictos a la pantalla) a nuestros parques y tierras salvajes, al tiempo que facilitará que los socorristas salven la vida de aquellos que meterse en problemas en el campo. "Las torres de telefonía celular han surgido en los parques nacionales de todo el país porque el Servicio de Parques Nacionales (NPS) carece de una política coherente y, en cambio, permite a las compañías de telecomunicaciones decidir dónde y cuántas torres se construirán", dice Jeff Ruch, de la organización sin fines de lucro Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER), que ha liderado el cargo contra la expansión del servicio celular en tierras públicas. "Como resultado, el sonido incesante del teléfono celular se puede escuchar en el campo salvaje, así como en lugares emblemáticos como Old Faithful". Hasta la fecha, solo cuatro de las 401 unidades de parques nacionales (Golden Gate, Rock Creek Park, Lake Mead y Yellowstone) han adoptado un plan para torres celulares o comunicación inalámbrica dentro de sus límites. En Yellowstone, el primer parque nacional en el sistema de EE. UU. Y el segundo más grande en los estados unidos (no contando a Hawái y Alaska), los administradores del parque han

recomendado una moratoria sobre la instalación de nueva infraestructura inalámbrica y la reducción o reubicación de algunas instalaciones celulares que son visibles para los visitantes del parque. El sitio web CellularMaps.com informa que NPS ha restringido cualquier instalación nueva o reubicada para "no proporcionar más cobertura celular de la que ya está disponible y ningún servicio puede expandirse a las áreas designadas de desierto". Pero en otros lugares, NPS ha estado trabajando silenciosamente con proveedores de telefonía celular para expandir en gran medida la "conectividad" dentro de los límites del parque, no solo en los centros de visitantes, sino a lo largo de las carreteras del parque y en los senderos. "Este esquema de sigilo para conectar nuestro sistema de parques nacionales ha avanzado sin la participación del público", informa Ruch. "Significará torres celulares más feas que empañarán las vistas del parque y la cobertura de" derrame "en la naturaleza y el campo". "Parte del objetivo de la naturaleza salvaje es la capacidad de desconectarse y sentirse solo, pero si alguien en el mismo camino puede pedir una pizza, vender acciones o perseguir Pokémon, eso le quita la experiencia al visitante", dice. Si bien algunos proveedores de telefonía celular han expresado su interés en dirigir sus señales fuera de las áreas rurales, PEER y otros consideran que es demasiado poco, demasiado tarde, y prefieren una legislación vinculante que obligue a los parques y las empresas a trabajar juntos para asegurarse de que al menos los más salvajes y las áreas más remotas están libres de señales celulares. "Los parques deben permanecer desconectados del mundo moderno", dice Ruch. "Experimentar las maravillas de la naturaleza no debería requerir un teléfono inteligente".

WE NEED UNITY AND DIPLOMACY TO COUNTER WAR AND CLIMATE CHANGE Mark Hedin | Ethnic Media Services ENGLISH

ESPAÑOL

Tulsi Gabbard briefs ethnic media in Second in a series of with the 2020 presidential candidates

Tulsi Gabbard informa a los medios étnicos en segundo lugar en una serie de candidatos presidenciales de 2020

miopes y fallidas, incluso aquellas hechas con las mejores intenciones".

n a teleconference with members of the ethnic press from across the country on Friday, Aug. 2, Democratic candidate for president Tulsi Gabbard, congresswoman from Hawai’i, introduced herself as a product of the country’s only majority-minority state, then commented that it took her visits to the mainland to reveal the very different ways people of color are sometimes seen and treated in the United States.

Un error político reciente, dijo, es la decisión del presidente actual el año pasado de retirarse del ACNUR, el Consejo de Derechos Humanos de las Naciones Unidas, la agencia de refugiados de la ONU, que el presidente dijo que había criticado demasiado a Israel.

It’s very different from the spirit of “Aloha” that prevails in her home state, she said. “Our current president is dividing our country and undermining core principles of who we are as Americans…” she said. “We are strongest when we stand united.” Call moderator Jaya Padmanabhan of India Currents asked how she planned “to rise above” such divisiveness and Gabbard responded that the challenge is “staying focused on why we are here” and “understanding what unites us as we continue to fight the good fight.”

Gabbard said she’d made two visits to Standing Rock, North Dakota, where plans to construct a fossil fuel pipeline running through tribal lands in proximity to their water supplies inspired virulent protests in 2016 and 2017.

Leading off the ethnic media’s questions in the hour-long event, Henrietta Burroughs of East Palo Alto Today referred to the congresswoman’s work on the House of Representatives’ Foreign Affairs and Armed Services committees and cited the morning’s news of the U.S. withdrawal from the INF, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, signed more than 30 years ago by President Ronald Reagan and his Soviet Union counterpart, Mikhail Gorbachev.

Hassan Abbas, of Arab American News, asked Gabbard about her “diplomatic strategy for achieving peace in the Middle East and at home.”

“You have supported nuclear disarmament,” Burroughs said to the congresswoman, a military veteran. Did she fear that the failure to renew the treaty would trigger a new arms race, Burroughs asked, and what did she believe must be done to avoid it?

But for the United States she said, beyond misguided efforts at regime change, “we have to end this U.S. foreign policy of being the world’s police.”

“We need to get back to the negotiating table,” said Gabbard. “These treaties are critical.” Gabbard also cited the imminent need to renew the START treaty and, she said, immediately abandon any “thinking wrongly that a nuclear war can be won. That’s what’s at stake here. Nuclear proliferation being kicked off by Trump. The only alternative to diplomacy is war.” Pilar Marrero of La Opinion followed Burroughs’ question with more foreign policy concerns, asking about the U.S. role in addressing “the massive refugee movement, specifically from Central America and also about “the Venezuelan crisis.” “This really gets to the core of why it’s necessary to learn from the mistakes of the past,” Gabbard replied, citing “efforts at regime change, whether covert or overt,” and how some of the countries from which people are fleeing – Guatemala and Honduras, for example – “are suffering the consequences of short-sighted and failed policies, even those made with the best of intentions.” A recent policy mistake, she said, is the current president’s decision last year to withdraw from UNHCR, the United Nations Human Rights Council, the UN’s refugee agency, which the president said had been too critical of Israel. Joe Orozco, of Hoopa Tribal Radio, turned the conversation closer to home. Did the congresswoman intend to address shortcomings in the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ management of its federal government trust responsibilities? Specifically absent, Orozco said, is any consideration of the importance of media such as newspapers

Gabbard said it was unlikely that she’d be able to parse the region’s issues in this brief questionand-answer session but reiterated her position that politicians and leaders must sit down with people they may have nothing in common with and “be willing to have those tough conversations.”

She grew more specific in speaking of Iran. The current administration says it doesn’t want war with Iran but “every single thing it does points directly toward a path to war, continuing to escalate the crisis.” Among many mistakes, she said, is “sending and deploying more U.S. troops to the region, “leading up to a war that would be far more devastating than anything we saw with the war in Iraq, and further exacerbate the refugee crisis that exists because of these conflicts and regimechange wars across the Middle East.” Sing Tao Daily reporter Ke Xu in New York, in the last of the opening questions, asked Gabbard how current trade disputes with China might affect Asian Americans. “I’m very concerned about escalating tensions” between the United States and China and the “irresponsible trade war,” she said, and characterized the president’s strategies as “unpredictable, shoot-from-the-hip.” “An economic war can very easily escalate into a hot war,” she warned. The current dispute has harmed U.S. small businesses, farms and manufacturers, she said, and “they’re all caught in the “counter-productive effect.” Calling for diplomacy and cooperation rather than conflict, her closing statement lamented the lost potential for good from countries “uniquely positioned to play a leadership role” in combating climate change.

n una teleconferencia con miembros de la prensa étnica de todo el país el viernes 2 de agosto, la candidata demócrata a la presidencia Tulsi Gabbard, congresista de Hawái, se presentó como producto del único estado mayoritario minoritario del país, y luego comentó que Tomó sus visitas al continente para revelar las formas muy diferentes en que las personas de color a veces son vistas y tratadas en los Estados Unidos. Es muy diferente del espíritu de "Aloha" que prevalece en su estado natal, dijo. "Nuestro presidente actual está dividiendo nuestro país y socavando los principios básicos de quiénes somos como estadounidenses ...", dijo. "Somos más fuertes cuando estamos unidos". La moderadora de la llamada, Jaya Padmanabhan, de India Currents, preguntó cómo planeaba "superar" esa división y Gabbard respondió que el desafío es "mantenerse enfocado en por qué estamos aquí" y "comprender lo que nos une a medida que continuamos luchando la buena batalla". Al iniciar las preguntas de los medios étnicos en el evento de una hora, Henrietta Burroughs de East Palo Alto Today se refirió al trabajo de la congresista en los comités de Asuntos Exteriores y Servicios Armados de la Cámara de Representantes y citó las noticias de la mañana del retiro de los EE. UU. Del INF, El Tratado de Fuerzas Nucleares de Rango Intermedio, firmado hace más de 30 años por el presidente Ronald Reagan y su homólogo de la Unión Soviética, Mikhail Gorbachev. "Usted ha apoyado el desarme nuclear", dijo Burroughs a la congresista, una veterana militar. ¿Temía que el hecho de no renovar el tratado desencadenara una nueva carrera armamentista ?, preguntó Burroughs, y ¿qué creía que debía hacerse para evitarlo? "Necesitamos volver a la mesa de negociaciones", dijo Gabbard. "Estos tratados son críticos". Gabbard también citó la inminente necesidad de renovar el tratado START y, dijo, abandonó de inmediato cualquier "pensamiento erróneo de que se puede ganar una guerra nuclear". Eso es lo que está en juego aquí. La proliferación nuclear está siendo iniciada por Trump. La única alternativa a la diplomacia es la guerra ". Pilar Marrero de La Opinion siguió la pregunta de Burroughs con más preocupaciones de política exterior, preguntando sobre el papel de Estados Unidos en abordar "el movimiento masivo de refugiados, específicamente de América Central y también sobre" la crisis venezolana ". "Esto realmente llega al núcleo de por qué es necesario aprender de los errores del pasado", respondió Gabbard, citando "los esfuerzos para el cambio de régimen, ya sea encubierto o abierto", y cómo algunos de los países de los que la gente está huyendo - Guatemala y Honduras, por ejemplo, "están sufriendo las consecuencias de políticas

Joe Orozco, de Radio Tribal Hoopa, acercó la conversación a su hogar. ¿La congresista tenía la intención de abordar las deficiencias en la gestión de la Oficina de Asuntos Indígenas de las responsabilidades de confianza del gobierno federal? Orozco dijo que está específicamente ausente cualquier consideración de la importancia de los medios de comunicación, como los periódicos y la radio, o la necesidad de apoyar y mantener estos medios. Gabbard dijo que había hecho dos visitas a Standing Rock, Dakota del Norte, donde los planes para construir una tubería de combustible fósil que atraviesa tierras tribales cerca de sus suministros de agua inspiraron protestas virulentas en 2016 y 2017. Hassan Abbas, de Arab American News, le preguntó a Gabbard sobre su "estrategia diplomática para lograr la paz en el Medio Oriente y en casa". Gabbard dijo que era poco probable que pudiera analizar los problemas de la región en esta breve sesión de preguntas y respuestas, pero reiteró su posición de que los políticos y los líderes deben sentarse con personas con las que no tienen nada en común y "estar dispuestos a tener esas conversaciones difíciles ". Pero para los Estados Unidos, dijo, más allá de los esfuerzos equivocados en el cambio de régimen, "tenemos que poner fin a esta política exterior estadounidense de ser la policía del mundo". Ella se volvió más específica al hablar de Irán. La administración actual dice que no quiere la guerra con Irán, pero "todo lo que hace apunta directamente hacia un camino hacia la guerra, y continúa intensificando la crisis". Entre muchos errores, dijo, está "enviar y desplegar más tropas estadounidenses en la región", lo que lleva a una guerra que sería mucho más devastadora que cualquier cosa que vimos con la guerra en Irak, y exacerbar aún más la crisis de refugiados que existe porque de estos conflictos y guerras de cambio de régimen en todo el Medio Oriente ". El reportero de Sing Tao Daily, Ke Xu, en Nueva York, en la última de las preguntas iniciales, le preguntó a Gabbard cómo las actuales disputas comerciales con China podrían afectar a los asiáticos americanos. "Estoy muy preocupado por la escalada de tensiones" entre n Estados Unidos y China y la "guerra comercial irresponsable", dijo, y caracterizó las estrategias del presidente como "impredecibles, disparar desde la cadera". "Una guerra económica puede fácilmente convertirse en una guerra caliente", advirtió. La disputa actual ha dañado a las pequeñas empresas, granjas y fabricantes estadounidenses, dijo, y "todos están atrapados en el" efecto contraproducente ". Pidiendo diplomacia y cooperación en lugar de conflicto, su declaración final lamentó el potencial perdido para el bien de los países "en una posición única para desempeñar un papel de liderazgo" en la lucha contra el cambio climático.

BATTLE FOR MARS: PLANET BEZOS, PLANET MUSK, PLANET BRANSON, OR PLANET NEW AMERICA?

Shelly Palmer

later you hear that person.

n July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong took “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” becoming the first human being to walk on the moon. NASA reported to Congress that the Apollo program cost $25.4 billion ($176 billion in 2019 dollars). At the time, there were only two entities with the resources to accomplish a mission of this scale: America and its cold war rival, the Soviet Union. America won.

In practice, no one on Earth is going to control anything on Mars in anything close to real time. People and things on Mars will have to think for themselves.

Through the lens of history, the Apollo program had less to do with our innate curiosity, our need to explore, or our quest for knowledge than it had to do with proving to the Soviets that America had “space superiority” and could efficiently deliver weapons of mass destruction at will.

At first, the Planet Bezos team will probably establish human habitats that are naturally shielded from the cosmic radiation bombarding the planet’s surface. Some scientists suggest the planet’s lava tubes would make a good shelter. Some suggest building human-friendly biospheres on the surface. But these solutions will be hard to sustain in the long term.

As the cold war drew to a close, NASA did its best to convince our military-industrial complex that we needed to continue to explore “the final frontier.” It has been an uphill battle, and today, NASA’s budget is a fraction of what most scientists believe it should be. Getting Back to the Moon and Beyond Following the Apollo lunar program, NASA’s Constellation Program was created to develop a launch system to handle both lunar and interplanetary missions. Following technical problems and often changing requirements, the program’s cost ballooned to $100 billion, and it was canceled under the Obama administration due to a lack of progress and an expensive price tag.

Living on Planet Bezos Just for fun, let’s say Jeff Bezos wins the battle for Mars. The ultimate ruler of Planet Bezos will become the ruler of a place that is exceptionally hostile to human life.

Any one of these organizations may get to Mars before NASA does. Mars Will Need to Self-Govern Traveling as fast as technology currently allows, a trip to Mars will take around seven months.

NASA followed up its Constellation Program with the Space Launch System (SLS), which is geared toward interplanetary travel and has an estimated price tag between $18 billion and $35 billion.

The Race to Colonize Space NASA believes it can get back into space for under $35 billion. That is a big number, considering the Federal Reserve says that median net worth of U.S. families is $97,300. But there are at least 60 people in the world who could either write a check for $35 billion or raise or lever their assets to cover $35 billion. To say nothing of the other countries and corporations that could easily get in the game. While India has set its sights on becoming the fourth country to land a man on the moon, others have the same dream – or are dreaming even bigger. Earlier this year, Richard Branson said Virgin Galactic would take its first trip to outer space this year. Elon Musk says he can put a man on Mars in four years. While Jeff Bezos isn’t as optimistic about the timeline, he also has his eyes set on outer space. Who Will Get There First? We know the players. We don’t know who will get to Mars first. When Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin got to the moon, they planted an American flag and left a plaque that said: Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon July 1969, A.D. WE CAME IN PEACE FOR ALL MANKIND. Will the first group to get to Mars come in peace for all mankind? If a privately funded mission gets there first, they will be under no obligation to do so. They could dub Mars Planet Bezos or

This number will get shorter as technology improves. But it’s never going to be “fast.” Said differently, depending on the relative positions of the planets, Mars is so far away it takes radio waves (traveling at the speed of light) anywhere from 4 to 24 minutes to get there, and the same amount of time to get back. “Hello.” Twenty-four minutes later a person on Mars hears you and responds, “Hello back!” Twenty-four minutes

In order to make the planet inhabitable by humans, Planet Bezos will need to be terraformed (Mars will need to be turned into an Earth-like ecosystem). If this “planetary ecosynthesis” is even possible, the time it will take to do it has been estimated at a brisk 900 years up to 100,000 years. As terraforming gets underway, Bezos’s team of scientists will debate whether it’s possible to bring plant life to the red planet (or if you even should), and that’s when governance or ownership of Mars is going to get interesting. Making Money on Mars At the moment, most Mars enthusiasts (including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, and a number of cosmologists and astrophysicists including Neil deGrasse Tyson) don’t think there is a business mining or manufacturing anything on Mars with an eye toward transporting it back to Earth. Transportation costs would quickly overwhelm any possible profits from any known raw materials. That said, many people believe that the IP created by the journey would be exportable and profitable for the nascent space colony. The general consensus is that Mars is like a very expensive second home: you just keep writing checks and try to enjoy it for the limited time you get to use it. The Planetary Protection of Mars There are many people (myself included) who believe Mars needs to be protected until we have definitively ruled out indigenous microbial Martian life. We could, for example, colonize the moons of Mars and send sterile robotic probes to the surface until we are sure of our science. This abundance of caution may seem extreme (considering the costs of going to Mars in the first place). But if there is indigenous Martian life, it will be the biggest discovery in human history, especially if it is based on different biochemistry. How would such a discovery change the way humanity views itself? I get giddy just thinking about it. This Is Not Science Fiction One of the truly greatest things about living in our time is the fact that this writing is not even close to science fiction. Getting to Planet Bezos, Planet Musk, Planet Branson, or Planet New America is just a capital allocation, a few trillion cpu-cycles, and a few million human-hours of work away. And the race is on!
