Documentary gives a voice to victims of violence in Juarez
By Pablo J. Sáinz
For U.S. filmmaker Charlie Minn,
Ciudad Juarez is much more than a
violent border town. For him, the city
is a place where thousands of families live and raise their children, where
kids come out to play in the streets
and to ride their bikes, where many
hardworking people earn a living at
an honest job.
“Juarez became the epicenter and
symbol of the violence,” said the director. “But it is much more than
that.”
Minn gives his vision of the new
Juarez in a documentary titled “The
New Juarez,” which opens at Regal
Rancho del Rey Stadium 16 in Chula
Vista on Friday Feb. 1, for at least
one week.
The panorama in Juarez began to
change recently. At the end of 2010,
at the peak of the drug violence, there
were at least 10 murders a day. By
mid-2012, that number fell to one a
day.
“The Sinaloa cartel won the war
meaning there are less people to kill,”
said Minn, who currently lives in New
York. “The Juarez and the La Linea
cartels have been virtually wiped out
by Chapo. Also, the federal police and
army have been diminished in the city,
these two groups were brought in by
former President Felipe Calderon
when he made his declaration of war
on the cartels went into full effect.”
Chula Vista a one of just a few
cities across the United States where
the independent film has been
screened. It is 81 minutes long, with
English and Spanish subtitles.
This is the last film in a trilogy that
Minn has dedicated to Juarez, a city
that he has learned to love since he
lived in the nearby Las Cruces, New
Mexico, a few years ago.
The documentary interviews drugviolence victims, the mayor, and police chief, among other protagonists
of the violent drama that the city has
lived in the past decades.
“The Mexican people have been
cheated,” Minn said. “I want to give
the victims who never asked for this
war a voice. How does one get
around over 100,000 murdered Mexicans?”
Partial proceeds will be donated to
victims in Juarez from the film.
Minn said that violence in Mexico
will not stop until Americans stop using drugs, and until the U.S. government takes responsibility and stops
implementing failed policies.
“People in our country need to pressure the White House as this is a
shared problem between both US and
Mexican governments,” he said.

The stage pulses with a United Nations of texture, color, music and
movement during Nations of San Diego International Dance Festival. The
heart and soul of the world takes to
the stage during this annual three-day
festival on Friday, February 8 at 8:00
pm, Saturday, February 9 at 2:00 and
8:00 pm, and Sunday, February 10 at
2:00 pm at the Coronado Performing
Arts Center, 650 D Avenue,
Coronado.
Over 200 dancers and musicians
representing ethnic groups from
around the globe will delight audiences with diverse cultural traditions
rarely seen together in one setting.
Magical things happen on and off the
stage. During intermission, imagine an
impromptu international flash mob as
Chinese, Irish, Mexican and Spanish
dancers free-style to a Puerto Rican
beat. Nations’ performers take every
advantage of performing in a crosscultural setting.
Both new and familiar faces come
together in this kaleidoscope of dance
and music. All performers bring
something fresh to the stage. “This
year, we are happy to welcome many
newcomers to Nations,” says Betzi
Roe, Festival Director. “The HuaYi
Song and Dance Company from Los
Angeles has many male dancers in
their ranks and they will perform an
interesting dance from Mongolia that
includes mimicking the movement of
horses. Dance companies representing Serbia and Sudan will also present
their wonderful traditions for the first
time at Nations. And, we are delighted
to welcome Rachel George, a worldclass belly dancer, as well as a full
company of Indian dancers bringing
Kathak dance to the stage — a real
first!”
Over 30 dance groups auditioned
this year. Nations will showcase fifteen of those companies. Each represents so beautifully the rich traditional
dance community that thrives in San
Diego and southern California.
Nations has designated the Friday
evening performance Military Night
and the Sunday Matinee is Girl Scout

Thomas Curry who is now
the auxiliary archbishop for
Santa Barbara was previously
Mahony’s advisor on sex abuse
cases. His role as abuse advisor was to formulate the strategies that were used to cover
over the crimes of pedophile
priests and to block any criminal investigations and civil suits
from being lodged against
these priests and the church.
Cardinal Mahony approved
these unjust and obstructive
actions which were intended to
avoid criminal prosecution. He
has claimed that church clergy
were not legally required to
report suspected child abuse
until 1997 and therefore they
were not responsible for reporting these hundreds of
crimes against children to the
police!
Mahony has relied upon this
flimsy defense in order to rationalize his immoral decisions
and behavior. He has also recently apologized publicly to
these hundreds of victims for
his harmful actions and stated
that he has a list of the children who were sexually abused
by clergy under his watch and
will now pray for them!
This moral and abusive cancer of sexually molesting children that is ingrained within the
Catholic Church is not simply
a local or recent problem. It
has permeated the L.A. archdiocese for close to fifty years
and perhaps longer as these
sexual assaults by predatory

pedophiles became a common
occurrence. These assaults by
certain Catholic priests have
also occurred in Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Kansas
City, Missouri and Florida. Internationally, other abusive
priests have preyed upon innocent children in Germany, Australia and other countries.
Meanwhile, Pope Benedict has
not spoken out and acted forcefully enough to thoroughly
eliminate these crimes that are
being committed against children in many church dioceses.
Thousands of pages from
Los Angeles archdiocese files
that are to be released will help
to raise the public’s consciousness in regard to these sexual
assaults on young people and
will include the files of many
more abuser priests. However,
in most likelihood, none of this
vital and repulsive information
will result in any convictions or
justice for the hundreds of victims as the child rapers and
criminals will most likely go
free! The many years of obstruction, stonewalling and
cover-up by Mahony’s lawyers
and his clergy have allowed the
perpetrators of these crimes to
avoid prosecution due to the
passage of time and the statue
of limitations.
A Catholic priest in Florida
is criminally prosecuted after
decades of molesting boys in
the church certain other church
officials in other cities to ignore
the welfare and safety of children and to instead focus on
damage control that protected
the church’s reputation. Many
honest priests who protested
this abuse and cover-up over
the years were ignored or silenced by the church. This
immoral decision by these
supposedly pious “men of god”
also focused on defending the
finances of the church from
criminal litigation and civil suits
for damages. While Mahony
has done much in the past to
defend immigrant’s rights, it is
this permissive and allowable
sexual abuse of their children
by the clergy that will tarnish
and negatively define his
legacy.
Thus, the morality of the
church was not utilized to defend the interests of the children from sexual predators.
Instead, a hypocritical and opportunistic policy and morality
was followed whose actions
involved criminal wrongdoing,
lies and the defense of money
and pedophiles. Christian ideology was tossed aside and a
degenerate and secular ideology of greed, pedophile lust and
disregard for children has pre-
Amplia Expectativa por Regreso de Ajedrez a Olimpiada Nacional
vailed.
There is an underlying pattern in most of these cases of
child abuse where church
officials have consistently
obstructed an exhaustive
investigation and prosecution
by law enforcement of predator priests who were under
suspicion. This obstruction of
justice would normally get
people fired or criminally
charged such as in a school
district. Thus, certain church
officials feel that they are
above the law while law-enforcement has not made a serious enough attempt to criminally charge these child molesters and those who protect
them.
These years of abuse by
hundreds of priests across the
country have left a trail of shattered lives for thousands of victims many of whom are now
adults. The depth of psychological and financial problems
that have plagued these children who were loyal believers
of the faith
Church “morality” based
upon Jesus’ pronunciation to
protect innocent children has
been defiled, have been ignored
and dismissed by many church
authorities who have assumed
no responsibility for the actions
of the abusers within their
midst. Rather than sermons on
Sundays that honestly described these problems of
sexual abuse and their elimination, only silence has been
heard. What is even worse is
that there has been no principled attempt by Mahony, his
successor Archbishop Gomez
and other dioceses to voluntarily compensate these victims
nor to bring their alleged sexual
predators to justice by cooperating with the police to prosecute them for their crimes.
The Christian theology and
dogma with its pronunciation by
Jesus that young and innocent
children should be protected is
in profound contradiction with
the prevailing hypocritical ideology being practiced by Cardinal Mahony and the church
which ignores the welfare and
safety of children and defends
admitted abusers. Mahony’s
top priority has been to look
after the financial interests of
the church and avoid any scandals rather than protecting
young lives and assuming responsibility for these children
who were ignored and discarded by church officials like
some form of disposable human rubbish.
One of the factors contributing to this epidemic of child
abuse by priests is the rigid
church regulation forbidding
clerical marriages. Priests and
Popes were allowed to marry
until the eleventh century, then
the Second Lateran Council
approved a new church rule
against marriage and upheld
“strict” celibacy for the priesthood. This was done to supposedly separate them from
the sinful world of sex, but the
real reason was an economic
one as the numerous sons fathered by married priests were
inheriting too much church
property and finances. So, to
stem this loss of church property a new rule from the
Vatican banned the children of
priests from receiving any
more inheritances. Of course,
this did not automatically stop
sexual activities among church
members as human nature prevailed over flimsy rules. However, the sexual abuse of children that was common during
the Middle-Ages by those who
held positions of power cannot
be condoned within our present
society.
The second factor is the
present shortage of priests
within the church as the number of young men who want to
commit to a life of religious
celibacy is decreasing. The
expulsion from the church of a
large number of child-molesting pedophile priests would
make this shortage of keepers
of the faith even more acute.
So, for church officials, expediency in maintaining enough
clergy to preside over parishioners and their donations has
overcome the morality of protecting children.

TIJUANA, Baja California.—
El regreso del Ajedrez a la
Olimpiada Nacional es visto
con buenos ojos por parte de
los directivos de este deporte,
además de que levanta una
nueva expectativa sobre la
manera en la que los practicantes del deporte-ciencia,
puedan contribuir al medallero.
“Primeramente reconocer la
labor que se hizo para que
regresara el ajedrez es muy
importante”, dijo Obed Sánchez, representante de la
Asociación Estatal de Ajedrez
de Baja California.
“Estamos entusiasmados y
también hay un compromiso
importante, ya que se nos toma
en cuenta nuevamente para el
medallero y para el puntaje
general”.
Destacó que en el caso de
Baja California se cuenta en
este momento entre los clasificados a los quintos nacionales
de hace tres años. “Ellos en
ese entonces estaban en su
categoría apenas empezando,
era su primer año”, recordó.
Esto significa una mayor
posibilidad de figurar en el
podio. “Llevamos más posibilidades de que puedan ellos
estar dentro del medallero en
la etapa nacional”, puntualizó.
“Tenemos también clasificado a la siguiente fase a un
doble medallista de plata de
hace tres años (cuando la
Olimpiada se llevó a cabo en
Jalisco)”, indicó. “Esto nos da
posibilidades y las amplía, para
poder llegar a un buen lugar,
trayendo buenas cuentas ahora
en la etapa nacional a Baja
California”.
El doble medallista de 2010
en Guadalajara fue Carlos
Alfredo Hernández Rendón,
quien regresa a la competencia
dentro del “deporte-ciencia” al

FIRST PERSON:
A Young Latino’s Dream Is Answered: What it Was
Like to Meet the President of the United States
By Jose Aristimuno
I remember it vividly as if it
was yesterday: Four years ago,
sitting at home, in Coral
Springs, Florida, watching the
historic inauguration of President Barack Obama.
That day, at 20-years-old, I
dreamed of one day being involved in the political process
and implementing positive
change for Latinos all across
the country.
Fast forward, and four years
later, a lot has changed. After
graduating from Community
College in Florida, I made a big
leap onto the nation’s capital and
transferred to American University, from where I recently
graduated. In addition, with the
help of many friends and even
colleagues at the Dewey Square Group, I formed an organization that focuses on empowering Latinos to reach their
maximum potential, called
Latino Giant.
Out of all the things that have
happened since my big move to
Washington, nothing comes
close to how rewarding it was
to meet the President of the
United States.
As he has done for so many,
President Barack Obama has
motivated me to do better. He’s
shown me that there is nothing
“minor” about us, and that our
voice is just as loud as everyone else’s in this democracy.
Our voice is not just any voice,
it is an important one that can
influence how business is done
here in Washington. The President has shown me that if we
fight for our principles and always work on doing the right
thing, there is nothing we can’t
achieve.
Just a few months ago, as
Congress battled over the Fiscal Cliff debacle, I wrote to the
White House and expressed
my feelings on why MiddleClass Tax Cuts should be extended. I wrote to them, because I couldn’t bear to imagine millions of young Ameri-

cans struggling to pay their
bills, working full-time and
going to school in order to get
by, suffer the consequences of
an irresponsible Congress. I
felt a moral obligation to speak
on behalf of my community
and express those concerns.
Several months after writing to the White House, I was
invited to attend an event on
December 31 st, where the
president was to deliver a
statement on the economy and
the Fiscal Cliff. Thrilled, I accepted the invitation. As I arrived at the White House that
cold Monday morning, staff
members informed me that I
had been selected, out of the
100 or so individuals that had
been invited to the event that
day, to stand behind the president as he delivered his remarks. To say that I was
shocked, surprised, and nervous is not saying enough.
Meeting the president was
an unforgettable experience.
Not only because I got to stand
next to a man that has faced
many of the same struggles
that are prevalent within the
Latino community, but also because ever since he ran for the
office he now holds, he inspired
me to push myself to my greatest potential, and inspire others to do the same. As the
president wrapped up his appearance, he invited those of
us present to take a group picture. In between shots, we
chatted about football, Bo the
First Dog, and politics. While
chatting with him for those 10
minutes, I couldn’t help but
notice how at ease the presi-
dent made us feel, his downto-earth approach, and just his
easy-going attitude.
In addition to having an unforgettable conversation with
the president, I had an opportunity to thank him for all the
work he has done on behalf of
Latinos and all Americans. I
thanked him for making
Latinos a part of our democracy. And most importantly, I
thanked him for making an
ambitious young Latino with
high hopes believe that his future is bright and just beginning.
Ever since President Obama
began his campaign in 2007, he
promised to make the White
House a more transparent and
welcoming home. He promised
to engage the American people
in helping to solve the challenges we face as a nation.
Today, I can say that I feel that
the President has kept that
promise. I encourage each and
every one of you to get involved in the political process,
to inspire others to serve, and
to not be afraid to let your
voices be heard. After all, you
never know who might be listening. Who knows, you might
just end up meeting the president.

y no comprendía lo que estaba

habían cometido ningún crimen
ni nada, ellos vivían en los

departamento de inmigración
no les importó. Ese día, nos
quedamos solos por varios días
hasta que un familiar cercano
vino a recogernos, fue espantoso, una experiencia que no
se la deseo a nadie, dejarnos
sin padres cuando tan solo
eramos unos niños, el gobierno
nos dejó huérfanos a mi
hermano y a mi”, relató la
joven.
Como María hay millones

las masivas deportaciones que
se hacen en los EE.UU. En

de 18 años y 4,5 millones de

Latino Representation in the 113th Congress
By Sylvia Manzano
The 113th Congress includes
a record number of thirty-eight
Latinos elected officials.
These notable numbers have
both policy and political implications for the future of Latino
politics in the United States.
First though, some demographic facts about the 113th.
Demographic Profile
The House Representatives
includes thirty-five Latino
members, another three are
members of the United States
Senate. All three Latino senators share two traits, they are
all Cuban American men: Robert Menendez, D-New Jersey,
Marco Rubio, R-Florida, and
Ted Cruz, R-Texas. By contrast, only eight House members are Latinas. Democrats
make up the majority of the
Latino delegation, with twentyseven in the House and one in
the Senate. Republican Latinos
number eight in the House and
two in the Senate.
They hail from ten states
and two territories, but California and Texas dominate the
Latino congressional delegation (with thirteen and seven
members from the respective
states), which is not a surprise
given the proportion of Latinos
in those states as well as the
large clusters of majority-minority regions with high concentrations of established
Latino political talent.
Policy
In terms of policy representation, it is fair for the Latino
electorate to expect co-ethnics
in office to champion a specific
policy agenda. Most Latino
elected officials represent large
Latino constituencies; it is their
job to support and advance voter
preferences after all.
In the 2012 election over
70% of Latino voters supported
Democratic House, Senate
and Presidential candidates.
Results from the impreMedia/
Latino Decisions Election Eve
Poll —the only study of the
2012 Latino electorate — demonstrate that Latino voters
have a clear policy affinity with
the Democratic party. The
majority of Latinos side with
Democrats on core, party-defining issues including: health
care, where over 60% prefer
to see Obamacare remain intact; deficit policy solutions,
where 77% prefer an approach
that includes higher taxes on
the wealthy, and immigration,
where the President’s deferred
action policy was met with
strong enthusiasm from the
Latino electorate and the Republican candidate’s self-deportation alternative was
roundly rejected.
There remains a smaller but
steadfast Republican and conservative policy-leaning share
of the Latino electorate, just as
there is a smaller GOP Latino
delegation. Because Latino
voter preferences are so clear,
Latinos in Congress can confidently coalesce around these
issues to amplify their collective impact on legislation.

GOP’s future is doomed without increased Latino voter
support. Most Latinos did not

LA PRENSA SAN DIEGO
Esfuerzos por construir un parque de
patinetas están ganando terreno
Peter Whitley cuenta con
una visión única de lo que
significa un parque para patinetas. Whitley es el director de
programas de la Fundación
Tony Hawk, organización sin
fines de lucro radicada en el
Condado de San Diego que ha
otorgado más de 500 subvenciones para ayudar a construir
parques para patinetas desde
su creación hace 10 años. De
acuerdo a Whitley, la Fundación ha ayudado a construir
420 parques y él personalmente
habrá procesado más de 1,000
solicitudes para parques de
patinetas al finalizar el 2012.
A pesar de su experiencia,
Whitley dijo que nunca había
visto algo como el rally organizado por Mid-City CAN el 6 de
diciembre en la Primaria Cherokee Point. El rally se celebró
para culminar una campaña del
Concejo Juvenil de Mid-City
CAN para construir un parque
para patinetas en City Heights,
un área que cuenta con 100
acres menos de áreas recreativas de lo necesario, de acuerdo
a las normas de San Diego.
“Nadie asiste a las reuniones por
asuntos recreativos”, dijo Whitley, refiriéndose a la multitud de
unas 300 personas que asistieron al evento en donde no había
un solo asiento vacío. “No
asisten cuando se discuten los
estadios”, dijo.”No asisten
cuando se habla de campos de
softball o cualquier otra cosa—
ya sean albercas o toboganes.”
“Ustedes están abriendo un
nuevo camino y sentando
precedentes que no se acostumbran en esta ciudad”, dijo
Whitley. “Aquí se siente mucha
emoción.”
Los funcionarios municipales
puede que no estén acostumbrados al nivel de participación
comunitaria en el caso de
parques—pero ciertamente
tomaron nota. El recién juramentado alcalde, Bob Filner, dijo
que asistir al rally fue uno de
sus primeros actos oficiales
como alcalde y expresó su
firme apoyo. “Tenemos un
presupuesto de $3 billones en
la Ciudad de San Diego”, dijo
Filner. “Es mucho dinero. Si no
podemos encontrar el dinero
para hacer esto, entonces
Peter Whitley es el director de programas de la
Fundación Tony Hawk.
debemos empacar.” El entusiasmo de Filner incluso lo
inspiró a crear un nuevo lema
para el esfuerzo. Dirigió a la
multitud durante un nuevo coro:
“Skate se puede.” ¡Sí se puede!
es una frase en español que se
puede traducir como “podemos
hacerlo”.
El presidente de la junta escolar de San Diego, Richard
Barrera, también se comprometió a ayudar en este esfuerzo. “Sepan que cuentan con
el apoyo de todo el distrito escolar—de toda la junta escolar”,
dijo. “Nuestras escuelas están
abiertas para que ustedes
puedan planificar y visualizar”,
añadió Barrera. “Los apoyamos en un 100%.” El Director de la Primaria Cherokee
Point, Godwin Higa, compartió
durante el rally su opinión de
cómo un parque para patinetas
puede darle a los jóvenes un
futuro más saludable. “Tenemos que hacer algo con nuestros jóvenes en las calles—no
están seguros”, dijo Higa. “He
estado trabajando durante
cuatro años—este es mi quinto
año— tratando de que se
construya un parque para
patinetas en algún lugar cercano, que sea más seguro para
los estudiantes que patinar en
las calles. Queremos que sea
una realidad. Por favor apoyen
este esfuerzo”.
Whitley dijo que el costo
promedio en la industria de un
parque para patinetas de alta
calidad es de unos $40 por pie
cuadrado. Este costo no incluye
las áreas verdes, bancos, iluminación y demás mejoras. “Si se
toma en cuenta lo relativamente
económicos que son los parques
de patinetas, en comparación
con cualquier otra cosa que el
departamento de parques quiera hacer con ese dinero, deberían acelerar este proyecto”,
dijo Whitley. “Creo que probablemente se podría sentar las
bases de concreto por lo menos
a finales del 2013.”
Whitley sugirió que la Fundación Tony Hawk puede
contribuir con la causa. “Están
ocurriendo muchas cosas en
Mid-City y nos emociona formar parte de esta oportunidad”, dijo Whitley durante el
rally en pro del parque para
patinetas en la Primaria Cherokee Point. “Tony Hawk habla
de ello. Todos los skaters
profesionales que se presentan
hablan de ello—es solo cuestión de tiempo”.

Newlyweds Searching for Bone Marrow Donor
Kevin Watson with his young daughter.
By Viji Sundaram
NEW AMERICA MEDIA
OAKLAND – Just when things
were looking up for journalist
Kevin Weston — he had just
been offered a prestigious
Knight Journalism Fellowship
at Stanford University and he
and his partner, Lateefah
Simon, had less than a year
earlier become parents of a
baby girl – last August, he was
diagnosed with an extremely
rare form of blood cancer. The
disease had compromised his
immune system and became
compounded by an infection to
his throat.
Doctors gave Weston, 44,
two weeks to live.
Since being diagnosed,
Weston has endured a monthlong stay in the ICU, five
emergency surgeries and multiple hospitalizations. Some time
during his ICU stay, he married Simon, a nationally recognized civil rights leader.
Weston is now back home,
but still in medical treatment.
The radiation and chemotherapy
treatment he is undergoing is
helping him some, but he needs
a bone marrow transplant in
order to survive, and he needs
it within two months. [Bone
marrow produces blood cells.]
Marrow matches are ethnically based and depend on
one’s genetic makeup. Weston
is African American and his
most likely match will also be
African American. Those who
are not Caucasians are more
likely to die of leukemia or other
blood cancers because there is
a shortage of ethnic minority
donors on the national registry,
noted Perry Bowens, recruitment manager of the northwestern district of the National
Marrow Donor Program
(NMDP).
About 70 percent of the potential 10 million donors now
registered in the national registry are Caucasian. Just under a third of listed donors are
members of ethnic minorities
— 7 percent of them African
Americans, 7 percent Asians,
10 percent Hispanics and the
rest of Native American, Pacific Islander or other races.
What is making it even
more difficult to find a match
for Weston is that he has a rare
form of blood cancer, noted
Bowens, during a bone marrow drive organized on Jan. 21
at the African American Museum and Library in Oakland.
Cassie Marshall, 26, was
among those who had dropped
in to register at the museum.
“I know there are a very
few African Americans in the
registry, that’s why I’m here,”
Marshall said, adding: “Besides, Kevin is a family friend.”
Why the reluctance among
African Americans to register?
Bowens pointed to the historical distrust among African
Americans of the medical
system, thanks in part to the
notorious Tuskegee syphilis
experiments from 1932-1972
conducted by the U.S. Public
Health Service to study the
natural progression of untreated syphilis in rural black
men.
AADP’s Executive Director Carol Gillespie said that African Americans are reluctant
to register because “they don’t
trust needles.” Many think donating bone marrow involves
injecting a number of needles
into the back of the pelvis.
That’s not usually the case any
more. About 80 percent of the
collection is from peripheral
blood stem cells.
Weston and Simon have
launched a national effort to
register at least 1,000 African
Americans to find a match for
him and other African Americans in similar situations.
“My story is just one of
many,” said Weston. “There
are thousands of AfricanAmericans and people of color
around the country who desperately need a bone marrow
transplant but can’t find a
match.
“My wife and I started this
campaign to do what we can
to raise awareness about this
urgent issue and to register as
many people as possible.”
Registering takes just a few
minutes, and involves a prescreening and swab sample of
the inside of the cheek.
People can also go online to
www.aadp.org and request a
home kit be sent to them. For
more information about
Weston and Simon’s story and
their campaign, please visit:

We should get immigration reform right
By Orson Aguilar

gets for exploitation.
Third, we must make family reunification a priority. Current rules can force
families in which just one partner is a
U.S. citizen to separate for years, and it’s
even harder for same-sex couples, who
in most states cannot marry and whose
marriages aren’t recognized by the federal government.
Finally, companies that want more visas for highly skilled workers should be
required to submit annual, comprehensive plans to Congress showing how they
plan to expand opportunities for people
who are already here, especially women,
Americans from underserved communities, and returning military veterans.
Silicon Valley firms, in particular, want
to import highly educated tech professionals from abroad, and they should be
able to get the help they need. But this
industry, which is notoriously lacking in
diversity, should also find ways to open
doorways to lucrative tech careers for
people already living in this country who
haven’t had the opportunities they need
and deserve.
The politics of immigration reform
will be tough, and the passions on all
sides are high. But a fairer system — one
that’s good for all Americans as well as
those seeking to come here — really is
possible.
t’s heartening that Congress and
President Obama are addressing
comprehensive immigration reform, something that’s long overdue. But everyone involved needs to
make sure that any legislation really
moves us toward a better, fairer system.
Politicians must avoid the temptation
to sign off on a bad deal just to be able
to say they did something about immigration.
So what makes a good deal? Four principles are essential:
First, immigration reform absolutely
must include a clear path to citizenship
for hard-working individuals and families who came to this country to work,
contribute and build a better life.
Overwhelmingly, undocumented immigrants are people who have been working, paying taxes and building communities — to the extent that we’ve allowed
them to. These folks are the American
Dream incarnate, and we should not put
so many obstacles in their way that their
path to citizenship exists in name only.
Second, we should not create a group
of second-class citizens through a guestworker program. When immigrants
come here in such a program, their lives
are tied to their employer. If mistreated,
they have virtually no ability to bargain,
look for another job, or join a union — Orson Aguilar is executive director of The

Llegó la hora de la reforma
Por Maribel Hastings
AMERICA’S VOICE
Cuatro años después y tras una elección que
puso de manifiesto el poder del voto latino en
la contienda presidencial, es refrescante y
esperanzador ver al presidente ejerciendo el
liderazgo requerido para impulsar este tema y
lograr la meta de una vía de ciudadanía para la
población indocumentada.
Como han probado debates previos en otros
asuntos, el liderazgo del presidente es primordial para llegar a la mesa, negociar y lograr los
acuerdos requeridos para aprobar un proyecto.
También se requiere el compromiso de los dos
partidos. Pero la reforma sanitaria, por ejemplo,
probó, que cuando la administración está
totalmente decidida a lograr que un asunto
avance, se mueven las fichas requeridas para
atraer los votos necesarios aún con un
Congreso dividido.
El mensaje de Obama con sus principios de
reforma migratoria, coincide con la presentación de los principios de un plan de reforma de
un grupo bipartidista de senadores. Tampoco
es por accidente. Se está tratando de mostrar
un frente unido y de coincidencias que de paso
a un debate para acordar el lenguaje final del
plan de reforma cuyo eje central será la vía de
ciudadanía para los 11 millones de indocumentados. Ahora comienza el estira y afloja
que irá a dando forma al proyecto de ley.
Obama, de hecho, advirtió que el debate no
puede ser interminable y que si el Congreso no
actúa con prontitud, enviará un proyecto basado
en sus lineamientos e insistirá en que se vote
prontamente. Lo que se avecina no será sencillo
pero tampoco es imposible.
Todo apunta a que llegó la hora de la reforma
migratoria. Los planetas se han ido alineando
de manera efectiva y hay una serie de
elementos que comprueban cada vez más la
cercanía de dicha reforma: un presidente
destinando capital político para lograrla y
convertirla en uno de sus legados, un Partido
Demócrata que quiere cumplir la promesa y
solidificar su apoyo entre los votantes latinos;
un Partido Republicano que necesita de la
reforma migratoria para enmendar su maltrecha
relación con los latinos y con ello abrir sus
posibilidades de retornar a la Casa Blanca; una
población que sondeo tras sondeo demuestra

importante es que, contrario a cuatro años, el

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA — Fue el discurso
migratorio que Barack Obama no pronunció
hace cuatro años cuando prometió impulsar la
reforma migratoria en su primer mandato. Pero
la angustiosa espera parece comenzar a rendir
frutos. Con su alocución en una escuela de Las
Vegas este martes, Obama dio, de hecho, la
señal de salida para la carrera de obstáculos
que podría culminar este año y finalmente con
la aprobación de un plan de reforma de nuestras
leyes de inmigración.
Y con la presentación de los principios de
esa reforma migratoria por un grupo bipartidista
del Senado este lunes, algo no visto en los
pasados casi seis años, se anuncia que 2013
parece encaminado a ser el año de la reforma.
Parece que las críticas de los pasados cuatro
años del peligro de pasar a la historia
únicamente como el presidente que deportó más
inmigrantes y no como el que promulgó la
reforma por muchos ansiada, y los resultados
de la elección del 6 de noviembre, cuando a
pesar de todo los latinos le dieron su abrumador
apoyo, han llevado a Obama a evidenciar el
liderazgo que se va a requerir para impulsar el
tema en un Congreso dividido. El presidente
no quiere dejar lugar a dudas de que se trata
de una prioridad para su administración y de
uno de los temas que espera dejar como su
legado presidencial.
No es por accidente que el discurso se
pronunciara en Las Vegas, Nevada, donde el
crecimiento de la población hispana ha dado
paso a un cada vez más influyente sector electoral, especialmente de votantes naturalizados,
que en 2008 dieron su espaldarazo a Obama
motivados por la promesa de reforma migratoria. Y aún cuando no se concretó, salvaron el
puesto del líder de la mayoría demócrata, Harry
Reid, en los comicios de medio tiempo de 2010;
y en el 2012 dieron a Obama el beneficio de la
duda a un segundo período con la esperanza
de que esta vez sí se pueda y la reforma
migratoria se haga realidad. Ni las abismales
tasas de desempleo ni de embargos hipotecarios
que han afligido a Nevada impidieron que los
latinos de ese estado y del país apoyaran al
presidente.
Hace cuatro años, cuando la promesa de
reforma migratoria amplia se quedó en el tintero,
las principales críticas formuladas contra
Obama fueron que no ejerció suficiente
liderazgo para impulsar el tema entre la
población y particularmente ante el Congreso. Maribel Hastings es asesora ejecutiva de

The Massive Human and Moral Cost
of Gun Violence
By Marian Wright Edelman
The heartrending massacre of 20 six and
seven year old children and six educators in
Newtown, Connecticut has galvanized public
attention once again after a mass shooting. But
the killing of children by gun violence is not
new. It has been a relentlessly unreported and
under-reported plague that has snuffed out the
lives of 119,079 children and teenagers since
1979. That’s an average of 3,721 child and teen
deaths every year for 32 years. That’s 4,763
classrooms of 25 children each. The number
of children and teens killed by guns since 1979
is two and a half times greater than the number of U.S. military personnel killed in action in
the Vietnam (47,434) or Korean (33,739) Wars,
and over 22 times greater than American military personnel killed in the wars in Afghanistan
(1,712) and in Iraq (3,518).
The United States of America has spent a
trillion and a half dollars on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars so far, purportedly to protect
our children and citizens from enemies without, while ignoring the reality that the greatest
threats to child safety and wellbeing come from
enemies within.
Gun violence saturates our children’s lives
and relentlessly threatens them every day. It
has romped through their playgrounds; invaded
their birthday parties; terrorized their Head Start
classrooms, child care centers, and schools;
frolicked down the streets they walk to and
from school; danced through their school buses;
waited at the red light and bus stop; lurked behind trees; run them down on the corner; shot
them through their bedroom windows, on their
front porches, and in their neighborhoods. Gun
violence has taught, entertained, and tantalized
them incessantly across television, movie, and
video game screens and the Internet. It has
snatched away their parents, aunts, uncles,
cousins, brothers, sisters, friends, and teachers; sapped their energy and will to learn; and
made them forget about tomorrow. It has
nagged and picked at their child and youthful
minds and spirits and darkened their dreams,
day in and day out, snuffing out the promise
and joy of childhood and inflicting them with
post traumatic stress disorders – often chronic.
It has caused them recurring nightmares and
made them afraid to go outdoors or to the movies. It has made them want to or feel they have
to get a gun or join a gang to protect themselves because adults can’t or won’t protect
them. It has made them plan their own funerals because they don’t think they’ll live to adulthood. It has killed them with guns every three
hours and fifteen minutes and injured them every 34 minutes. It terrifies them and makes them
cry inside and wonder if and when enough adults
are ever going to stand up and make it stop and
make children safe.
President Obama, in his moving remarks at
the Sandy Hook interfaith prayer vigil at
Newtown High School December 16, 2012, got
it right when he said: “Caring for our children.
It’s our first job. If we don’t get that right, we
don’t get anything right. That’s how, as a society, we will be judged.” And we will not pass
the test of the God of the prophets or New
Testament or all great faiths if we do not protect all of our sacred children against repeated
and preventable gun deaths and injuries. Every
child has a right to live and to dream and to
strive for a future that is not destroyed in a
second because we cowered before a special
interest lobby and refused to protect them.
What can we do? Learn the truth about and
debunk the myths that guns make us safe. Did
you know that one third of all households with
children younger than eighteen have a gun and
40 percent of gun-owning households with children store their guns unlocked? Contrary to
what many people believe, having a gun in your
home doesn’t make you safer but instead endangers you and your loved ones. A gun in the
home makes the likelihood of homicide three
times higher, suicide three to five times higher,
and accidental death four times higher. For
every time a gun in the home injures or kills in
self-defense, there are 11 completed and attempted gun suicides, seven criminal assaults
and homicides with a gun, and four unintentional shooting deaths or injuries.
Read the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF)’s
new Protect Children Not Guns: The Truth
About Guns, which debunks myths that guns
make you safe. Convene congregational and
parent and community study groups and let the
enormity of lost child and human life sweep
over you and pierce your hearts and make you
determined to wake up, stand up and do something! Check CDF’s website regularly for steps
you can take and that others are taking. Small
acts by enough of us can set off big ripples
across our nation and shake up our political
leaders. The important thing is to care and to
act and to keep acting for as long as it takes
until the NRA’s lock on gun policy is broken.
Stop shopping at stores that sell firearms over
the counter - making their purchase and use as
routine and normal as a flashlight or toaster.
Assault weapons should not be normalized and
treated as a household product or glorified as
American as apple pie. Turn off the violent TV
shows. Stop buying the violent toys and video
games and call for nonviolent conflict resolution and restorative justice training of our educators, faith leaders, children, and all of us. Let’s
make violence unacceptable rather than acceptable in our nation which leads the world’s industrialized nations in military expenditures, in
number of guns sold and in circulation (an estimated 300 million), and in child, youth, and adult
civilian gun deaths.
At the height of the Vietnam War, anti-war
demonstrators filled the Mall and confronted
the President, Congress, and Pentagon calling
for an end to that war. What is it going to take
for the American people–for you and for me–
to push the President and members of Congress and Governors and state legislators to
stand up to the NRA, gun manufacturers, and
sellers? What is it going to take for them to
place protection of children and youths and
adults ahead of the protection of guns and profits and their election to office.? How much is a
child’s life worth in today’s political economy
in America?
In 2013, as we prepare to celebrate Martin
Luther King’s birthday and the 50th anniversary
of the March on Washington and the dream of
our gun-slain prophet of nonviolence, let us truly
hear and follow rather than just celebrate him.
Now is the time to free ourselves from the plague
of gun violence which has taken over 1.3 million
American lives since Dr. King and Robert
Kennedy’s assassinations in 1968. This is twice
the loss of life than all American battle casualties
in all the major wars we have fought since our
nation began: the Revolutionary War (4,435); the
War of 1812 (2,260); the Mexican War (1,733);
the Civil War (214,938); the Spanish American
War (385); World War I (53,402); World War II
(291,557); the Korean War (33,739); the Vietnam War (47,434); the Persian Gulf War (148);
the Iraq War (3,518), and the war in Afghanistan
(1,712). Isn’t it way past time for some hard soul
searching about what we believe as Americans?
Do we believe in the sanctity of life in America or
don’t we? We decide.

Commentary/Opinion Page
GOP, take cues on U.S. mood from Obama ¡ASK A MEXICAN!
By Maria Cardona
Republicans are dealing with their demons.
At the Republican National Committee meeting last week, they seemed to be taking a hard
look at what they need to do to compete at the
presidential level in the years to come. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said the GOP needs to
stop being “the stupid party.” He is right, to be
sure, but it is not simply a messaging problem.
It is a policy problem. So here is some advice.
Reread President Barack Obama’s inaugural speech and avoid the the knee-jerk impulse
to call the president a socialist because of his
defense of a so-called “liberal agenda.” Instead, observe how the issues he raised align
with where the American people are. Simply
put, majorities of the country, including an overwhelming majority of the demographic coalition that got him reelected, mainly agree with
him.
The GOP is so in a tizzy about Obama’s vision and how they are certain it is all but DNA
proof he is a socialist. But Republicans needs
to consider that something much less pernicious
is at play here on both scores: The nation is
progressing.
Obama talked about immigration reform by
stating, “Our journey is not complete until we
find a better way to welcome the striving, hopeful immigrants who still see America as a land
of opportunity, until bright young students and
engineers are enlisted in our work force rather
than expelled from our country.”
Majorities of Americans have supported comprehensive immigration reform for years. Today, more than 75% support it. Importantly,
many Republicans recognize the need to do
something real on immigration, given the shellacking they received from Latinos in November: 71% supported Obama. To his credit, Sen.
Marco Rubio has proposed some commonsense measures that are a great start to ensuring the GOP gets serious about real reform.
And on Monday, a bipartisan group of Senators proposed a sensible plan on this important
issue, further proof the GOP knows it has to do
more than just change their rhetoric.
To the offense of many conservatives, the
president said, “Our journey is not complete
until our gay brothers and sisters are treated
like anyone else under the law, for if we are
truly created equal, then surely the love we
commit to one another must be equal, as well.”
On this issue, Americans’ evolution is recent,
but has been quite dramatic, and given the generational divide, support for it will only get
stronger. Currently, 53% of Americans support
gay marriage, while 46% oppose. Even the Boy
Scouts, a staunchly conservative organization,
announced Monday it is considering “potentially
removing the national membership restriction
regarding sexual orientation.”
Obama’s mention of climate change further
rankled Republicans, He said: “Some may still
deny the overwhelming judgment of science,
but none can avoid the devastating impact of
raging fires, and crippling drought, and more
powerful storms. The path towards sustainable
energy sources will be long and sometimes difficult. But Americans cannot resist this transition. We must lead it.” Interestingly enough,
63% of Americans believe that global warming is a serious issue, according to a poll by
Rasmussen, which skews rightward. And while
there is certainly no consensus on what should
be done legislatively about it, the president’s
focus on alternative energy sources and renewable fuels also is in line with where many Americans stand.
But the line in Obama’s inaugural address
that opponents have pointed to as proof that he
is and has always been an extreme leftist president, was this:
“…Through it all, we have never relinquished
our skepticism of central authority, nor have
we succumbed to the fiction that all society’s
ills can be cured through government alone.”
Some Republicans, once again, choose to
make hyperbolic, hysterical proclamations
about looming socialism. The reality, as always,
is less dramatic and more straightforward. The
fact is Democrats, buoyed by majorities of its
winning coalition of Latino, African-American,
women and young voters, believe the government has a constructive role to play in society.
Not a bigger role, which is what the Republicans’ sky-is-falling reaction has been. But one
that can protects the individual as a consumer,
levels the field so that everyone is playing by
the same rules and jobs are based on merit,
and ensures smart investments in innovation,
work force, military, and infrastructure. These,
spurred by our American ingenuity, will continue to make us exceptional.
What the president’s opponents need to understand is that this is the face of progress.
This is the face of the America that exists today. Obama’s vision is mainstream — a guide
to where majorities of Americans already believe we need to go as a country. Once Republicans understand it is not a legislative roadmap
designed to annihilate them, maybe they too
can realize they would do well to start to embrace these changes and evolve along with the
rest of us.
If they don’t they may as well change their
symbol from the elephant to the woolly mammoth.

flicted upon them. Many of the young and adult
abuse victims still experience pangs of guilt as
most believe that they were somehow responsible for these sexual assaults inflicted upon
them by deviant priests and therefore need
extensive psychological assistance.
A moral cleansing of the church’s hierarchy
and clergy is needed as well as a return to the
original teachings and practice of the church
that espoused the defense of the poor and innocent and particularly children. While these
crimes against children are being exposed, we
must make it clear that not all priests are responsible for these acts, but those who have
kept quiet while children were harmed are just
as guilty. Allowing most priests to marry is a
partial solution to this problem of abuse as human sexuality cannot be artificially restricted
by a feudalistic rule. However, pedophile priests
don’t want to get married to women as they
are sexually attracted to little boys and need to
be expelled from the church. It is contradictory for the church to publicly condemn birth
control, women’s rights, abortion and gays as
sinful, and yet silently continue to allow children under its supervision to be sexually assaulted by its members and then dishonestly
hide it.
In conclusion, the parishioners of the many
churches and especially those in cities where
these incidents of religious-child molestation
have occurred need to stand up and be heard.
Keeping quiet and passively looking the other
way objectively endorses this decadent and
criminal behavior against children. Every Sunday, church members finance the clergy and
their lawyers with donations who then use these
funds to defend and hide pedophile child abusers from prosecution. The millions of church
members must not continue to maintain an immoral silence while children are harmed. Parishioners have a right and duty to stand up and
speak out against this existing ethical and financial corruption. They must demand a moral
cleansing of the clergy and criminal prosecution of the abusers so that the children whose
lives have been negatively affected may at last
receive justice.
Thirdly, after fifteen centuries of accumulating wealth, the Catholic Church is one on the
largest and richest financial institutions in the
world with massive investments in corporations,
banks, real estate and gold bullion. The feudal
structure of the church is like a pyramid with
the Pope at the top, an upper clergy with titles
just below him, and thousands of priests at the
parish level. At the bottom of this vast religious
and financial pyramid are the millions of parishioners referred to as the flock, a name usually used to refer to sheep. The years-long
struggle waged by Mahony and his aide Thomas Curry to defend and conceal these wayward priests from law-enforcement and avoid
criminal charges is fundamentally motivated by
the desire to defend the church’s vast financial
empire from civil suits involving millions of dollars in damages.
Lastly, in other occupations such as teaching, coaching and to a lesser extent the Boy
Scouts, pedophile predators are eventually
caught and punished. Over the years, the word
has gotten out to pedophiles that they can enter the priesthood and be surrounded by little
boys who they can molest to their heart’s content with no fear of being stopped, exposed or
arrested. It is no coincidence that this surge of
child abuse has occurred as it is directly related to the increase of pedophiles who are attracted to the priesthood due to its tolerance
for this type of criminal activity.
A thorough purge is required of the church’s
ranks in order to remove the predator priests
who have violated little boys and even girls.
They need to be exposed and turned over to
the police for criminal prosecution just like any
other adults who commit these type of crimes.
Continuing to protect such predators means
allowing them to prey upon and harm even more
children.
Legally, the hundreds and hundreds of pending civil suits against the church by many of
these victims who are now adults need to be Jimmy Franco Sr. is the moderator and writer

her a crack at stardom, Majo

With an incarcerated mother,
a record contract could be the

means selling out her talent and
thetrue friends who helped her.
Also stars the late Jenni
Rivera.
The film is rated R.
The evening will feature a
special appearance by
Youssef Delara, the film’s
writer and co-director.

A Sweet Treat for
Valentine’s: Bach
Collegium presents
“When Cupid Strikes!”
Program of Love-Inspired
Songs with Wine &
Chocolate Reception
Cupid will strike lovers of
early music when Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), the
city’s only early music performance ensemble, presents a
special Valentine’s Day program focusing on music whose
themes bring to mind tales of
love gained, love lost, and tears
shed.
Performances are Friday,
February 8, 7:30pm at the San
Diego History Center in Balboa
Park, the group’s newest
venue; and Saturday, February
9, 7:30pm at the Performing
Arts Center in Rancho Santa
Fe.
“The great Baroque composers Handel, Bach, Purcell, and
Monteverdi all left great music focusing on the theme of
love in its many complexities.
From Purcell’s ‘If music be the
food of love… sing on, sing
on!’ that pronounces the virtues of love, to Bach’s secular
canatata ‘Amore Traditore,’ in
which a lover finds love a traitorous thing and hopes cupid’s
arrows will miss him. But most
importantly… chocolate! It
seems natural to present a program on the subject of love, followed by a reception with
chocolate,” said music director Ruben Valenzuela.
Tickets to individual concerts
are $25 or $40. Senior/Student
Discount: $20 Rush tickets may
be purchased at the door for
$10 if any seats are still available (student ID required).
PRE-CONCERT DISCUSSIONS: A pre-concert
discussion begins 45 minutes
before each concert. The discussion features selected
performers and audience
members, providing an opportunity to discuss the various
topics related to the forthcoming concert.

The Petition for Probate requests that:
TOBIE W. FINK and KENNETH W. FINK
be appointed jointly as personal representatives to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent

2013. Time: 11:00am. Dept: PC-1
Address of court: SUPERIOR COURT OF
CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO,
1409 Fourth Avenue, San Diego, California 92101.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and
state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your
appearance may be in person or by your
attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within four months from the
date of first issuance of letters as provided
in Probate Code section 9100. The time
for filling claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date notice above.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you a person interested in the
estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of
the filing of an inventory and appraisal of
estate assets or of any petition or account
as provided in Probate Code section 1250.
A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Documental registra la violencia en Cd. Juárez
Por Pablo J. Sáinz
Para el cineasta estadounidense Charlie Minn, Ciudad
Juárez es mucho más que una
ciudad violenta en la frontera.
Para él, la ciudad es un lugar
donde miles de familias viven
y crían a sus hijos, donde los
niños salen a jugar a las calles
y andar en bicicleta, donde
muchas personas se ganan la
vida honestamente a diario.
“Juárez se ha convertido en
el epicentro y el símbolo de
la violencia del narcotráfico
en México”, dice el director.
“Pero es mucho más que
eso”.
Minn da su visión de la nueva
Ciudad Juárez en el documental The New Juarez, que
estrena en Regal Rancho del
Rey Stadium 16 en Chula Vista
el viernes 1 de febrero y estará
presentándose por lo menos
por una semana.
El panorama de Ciudad
Juárez comenzó a cambiar
recientemente. A finales del
2010, cuando la violencia
estaba en uno de sus puntos
más altos, se registraban unos
10 asesinatos al día. A mediados del 2012, ese número bajó
a uno diario.
La disminución en la violencia es algo que llevó a Minn a
investigar qué había ocurrido
en la ciudad para que se diera
ese cambio.
“Básicamente el cartel de
Sinaloa ganó la guerra, lo que
significó un menor número de
personas asesinadas”, dice
Minn, quien radica en Nueva
York. “Eso, junto con una
reducción de las fuerzas militares en la región y un jefe de
policia influyente, ayudó también”.
Chula Vista es una de un
puñado de ciudades en Estados
Unidos donde se proyectará el
filme, que tiene una duración
de 81 minutos con subtítulos en
inglés y en español.
Esta es la última parte de una
trilogía de filmes que Minn ha
realizado sobre Juárez, ciudad
por la cual ha tomado gran
cariño desde que vivió en la
cercana Las Cruces, Nuevo
México.
El documental entrevista a
victimas de la violencia, al
alcalde y jefe de policía y otros
protagonistas del violento
drama que se ha vivido en
Ciudad Juárez en las últimas
décadas.
“El pueblo mexicano ha sido
maltratado”, dice Minn. “Quiero darle una voz a las victimas,
quienes nunca pidieron estar
involucrados en esta guerra
contra el narco. ¿Cómo se
pueden ignorar las muertes de
más de 100 mil mexicanos?”
Parte de las ganancias genera-das serán destinadas a
programas de apoyo a victimas
de la violencia en Juárez, indica el director.
Durante años, Juárez fue
considerada la ciudad más
violenta del mundo. Recientemente ese lamentable título ha
sido otorgado a San Pedro de
Sula, Honduras, donde la
violencia de las pandillas y el
narcotráfico la han convertido
en otra zona de guerra, de
acuerdo al cineasta.
Minn señala que la vio-lencia
relacionada con el narcotráfico
también se ha reducido en
Tijuana ya que la guerra entre
los carteles por el poder se ha
movido hacía otros estados,
como Michoacán, Tamaulipas
y Guerrero.
Para Minn, la violencia en
México no dejará de existir
hasta que los estadounidenses
dejen de consumir drogas y
hasta que el gobierno estadounidense tomé su responsabilidad en sus manos y deje
de implementar políticas fallidas en la guerra contra el narco.
“Los Estados Unidos está
matando a México”, señala
Minn. “Los estadounidenses se
drogan y los mexicanos mueren. Esa es la verdad”.
“The New Juarez” estrena
el viernes 1 de febrero, por lo
menos durante una semana en
Regal Rancho del Rey Stadium 16, ubicado en el 1025
Tierra Del Rey, Chula Vista.
