Víctimas del Terrorismo.
Aquí le presentamos algunas de las más crudas imágenes de las víctimas de los terroristas.
Vea el sufrimiento de aquellos que con su sangre, permitieron que los argentinos hoy tengamos un país que vive en democracia y libertad.
Estas son las víctimas de "montoneros", del "erp", de los padres cuyos H.I.J.O.S. hoy nos reclaman por los "derechos humanos" dejando de lado la violencia y el odio irracional que ejercieron sobre la sociedad Argentina.
Los terroristas y sus deudos hoy reciben centenares de miles de dólares por haber sido "perseguidos políticos".
Las víctimas de ellos ni sus familias, comprenden ni el odio, ni las recompensas monetarias que los guerrilleros están recibiendo hoy en día.
Los violentos de ayer, hoy se regodean con el poder mediático y político. Se llenan los bolsillos de dinero proveniente del "capitalismo", que dicho sea de paso, les pagamos todos los argentinos con nuestros impuestos.
Las palabras sobran. Ahora les toca hablar a las victimas.

Compassion Has No Walls: Mend the Past, Transform the Future
July 12, 2019
Rally in front of the ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) field office in San Francisco.
Sindy Flores, a mother and immigrant recently arrived from Honduras, tells her story of family separation. “Rich, poor, black, white… we are all human beings and we deserve respect.”
From rally organizers: "We resist the detention of immigrant children in concentration camps, like what was done in the past to Jewish communities, indigenous communities, and Japanese and Japanese Americans during World War II. We stand with members of the Japanese American community who are calling for the closing of all detention centers: "Never Again Is Now.""
Close The Camps!
San Francisco
July 2, 2019
What started as a passionate rally across from Senator Dianne Feinstein's office, grew quickly (and I sense unexpectedly) into a spontaneous blockade of Market Street at lunchtime with over 1000 people, disgusted by US cruelty at the border, calling to immediately CLOSE THE CAMPS!! Two hours later, after a march down the center of Market Street and another street blockade, the rally ended outside the office of Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. #closethecamps
Graffitto gegen Neonazismus. Forst 2014.
"Never again", das sollte eigentlich selbstverständlich sein. Wenn es jemand dort sprüht, scheint es dort Leute zu geben, die anderer Meinung sind. Wenn es nicht wieder übersprüht wurde, sind es immerhin wohl nicht allzu viele.
The Boston event began at 9AM in Roxbury at the Madison Park Technical & Vocational High School, from where students and supporters marched down Columbus Ave through Boston's South End to Park Square, ending on Boston Common for a massive rally. While police estimated that 50,000 people marched, that doesn't include the many thousands who lined the march route, held signs, and cheered on the marchers, or the many people who attended the rally on Boston Common but did not march. Organizers estimated that more than 100,000 people marched and rallied on Boston Common, which is easy to believe seeing photos of the event.

“My Name is Rachel Corrie”
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
My Name is Rachel Corrie
And I am still with you here
Don't let your life be a worry
Just take of it care and be there
I was a flower in life's garden
With the petals to be woken
But winter came in its bombardin'
And all my flowers were broken
I'm still with you in your debate
Of life's growth blossoming ways
Though there's still hasty hate
Within these moments and days
Let my peace bring you a song
To sing my story to your heart
Every day's still a heartfelt long
For what we need to make love start
My Name is Rachel Corrie of peace
My footsteps are Freedom Come
Remember me in the tree breeze
For I never went existence from
Dreams of liberty shall be made
So we can all live here close
Take away all these irons of afraid
And make this earth love‘s red rose
------------

While children were here, they were forbidden from talking to each other during the day without permission. Often times, they were only allowed to talk for 30 minutes a day during group. If they were found to be talking, they would be severely punished including physically restrained and put into isolation. Imagine this room full of children and yet silent every day. The only thing they were allowed to listen to were self-help audio tapes that boomed over the speakers.

Nazis in Los Angeles: April 17, 2010
Here's one of a million cops
in riot gear and ready for
the worse - and behind him the
very Nazi who got in my face
figuring I would back down-
which I didn't -
and about which many
details follow.
About 50 Nazi skinhead thugs - mostly white skinhead men, some women - got a permit to march and spew hate-speech in downtown Los Angeles on the steps of City Hall.
About 1000 protestors - from every corner of Los Angeles, and every color, every race, every age - showed up to protest their presence.
And there were about 1000 cops, so it seemed, all in full riot gear - tear gas guns and batons at the ready.
I was with the press taking photos, between the Nazis and the cops and the huge crowd screaming below us. And as a Jewish man, it made me feel great about this country - not only that we allow even Nazis the right to speak in public, protected - but that when Nazis do arrive in my city - a nightmare I'm sure every Jew contemplates - that everyone in the city rose up to shout them down.
And this was truly a constitutional adventure - as the cops stood between the angry masses shouting to drown out the Nazis - and the Nazis, taking turns spewing hate on their loudspeakers - began to berate America for letting all these terrible immigrants in our country, not to mention all the Blacks and homosexuals, with special hate expressed at the Jews (all of whom are Zionists) and Latinos (here to rape white women and children) - and there in the police force were Latino men and women, and blacks and Asians. And they knew they were there doing a job on behalf of the Constitution - and what more extreme exercise is there than this, allowing Nazis to speak on the steps of City Hall?
This is a test of our freedom and our tolerance, and we passed it. But it seemed like a powder-keg - like this could explode into a riot easily. And it didn't. But the Nazis did everything they
could to incite a riot - being as
offensive as possible, even
taking out Mexican flags and
defiling them.
Just flying a swastika flag, to me, is the ultimate offense - to celebrate this dark legacy of hate and genocide - is purely dispicable. And hard to confront without anger.
And though I know the cops - many of them - felt bad about having to essentially protect Nazis (one told me this was a no-win situation, and I said, no, we did win - because it didn't turn into a riot, which it could have) - the cops did a good job.
One Nazi, a portly guy in a helmet, started screaming at me - sure, I let him know I beieved in Jewish power - "Go back to Israel, Jew."
I let him know I wasn't from Israel,
but from America, which is true. And that he is offensive spewing hate in my city.
"This isn't your city," he said.
Yes it is. And I told him he should be ashamed to be standing here in celebration of those who killed 6 million Jews.
"Oh, was it six million, was it?"
Yes. And one million children. I asked him, "Are you proud about the death of one million children?'
He said, "Oh, is it one million?"
And I wondered, though I didn't
manage to ask, just who do they hate the most? Are the Jews still at the top of their hate list? They spent more
time decrying the state of the
expanding Latino population in Los Angeles and the "illegals" than they did berating Jews. But they also
managed to include Blacks,
all non-white people and Asians,
and homosexuals. It's hard
to conceive people could
hold this equation consisting
of so much hate in their
heads.
I told him in no uncertain terms
how little I thought of him and
his gang of ignorant thugs, he got
in my face - I thought he was
gonna hit me - but he didn't.
Then he pointed me out to
a cop and told him to arrest
me. The cop came over to me,
a kind black guy on the older side,
and said gently,
"Don't make the Nazis mad." Just as gentle advice. Which made me laugh. I thought - yeah - good general rule really always - you don't want to make the Nazis mad.
But I am glad I was there, and proud of the thousands who came to stand in defiance to this proud and awful display of hate, and the way all
of our city united in
opposition to these people.
The view might be pleasant but the children were punished harshly if they were caught looking out it.
Compassion Has No Walls: Mend the Past, Transform the Future
July 12, 2019
Rally in front of the San Francisco ICE field office.
In 1942, Chizu Omori (12 years old) was incarcerated with the rest of her Japanese American family. Now, she is a member of the group Tsuru for Solidarity (Tsuru refers to the Japanese folded paper cranes) and stands in solidarity with those being held in detention at the US borders. The Japanese American community received almost no support from people outside their community. Today, they are determined to show the support and solidarity that they did not receive.
From rally organizers: "We resist the detention of immigrant children in concentration camps, like what was done in the past to Jewish communities, indigenous communities, and Japanese and Japanese Americans during World War II. We stand with members of the Japanese American community who are calling for the closing of all detention centers: "Never Again Is Now.""
After stealing an Israeli flag from a passing car, a young Palestinian supporter tore the flag to shreds, spat on it and then rubbed his dirty shoe on one of the remaining pieces of the flag. Earlier in the day he was taken into custody by Miami Police officers during a heated protest at Bayfront Park on Biscayne Blvd in Miami. On opposite sides of the street, pro-Israel and pro-Palestine supporters exchanged words against each other's views.
Lights For Liberty - Powell St, San Francisco
July 12, 2019
From the organizers - "We are a coalition of people, many of whom are mothers, dedicated to human rights, and the fundamental principle behind democracy that all human beings have a right to life, liberty and dignity. We are partnering with national, regional and local communities and organizations who believe that these fundamental rights are not negotiable and are willing to protect them. On Friday July 12th, 2019, Lights for Liberty: A Vigil to End Human Detention Camps, will bring thousands of Americans to detention camps across the country, into the streets and into their own front yards, to protest the inhumane conditions faced by refugees. Meeting in San Francisco's Market Street at the Powell St. Cable Turnaround, San Francisco can join other cities across the country in this effort. “GIVE ME YOUR TIRED, YOUR POOR, YOUR HUDDLED MASSES YEARNING TO BREATHE FREE.” - Inscription on the Statue of Liberty"

It's rare to find a place have safe access to its bike parking. Too many groceries have you enter via the parking lot, even if they have urban-friendly sidewalk (curb) access.
Read about this grocery store on Steven can plan.
As inmates rose through the ranks of the levels, they would be allowed "extra" privileges such as condiments on food or a room with a little more space. As we can see that this room was left as it was the day the school closed with student's laundry still laying on the bed.
At this point, most of dorm 2 is a biohazard. Old lead paint is peeling off the walls, there are cracks in the foundations and walls, moisture everywhere, breaks in pipes, black mold, and likely asbestos everywhere

Thousands of protesters armed with placards filled most of Whitehall outside Downing Street. They were rallying to demand that prime minister Theresa May repudiate Donald Trump's shameful blanket entry ban on all Syrian, Iraqi, Somali, Yemeni, Iranian, Sudanese and Libyan nationals for the next 90 days as well as the indefinite ban on all Syrian refugees.
Some also demanded that his planned state visit as a guest of the queen be revoked and that the British government also take decisive action to help desparate refugees and ease the conditions within the UK for asylum seekers.
An estimated ten thousand gathered outside Downing Street including human rights activist Peter Tatchel, former England striker Gary Lineker and singer Lily Allen.
Among the most frequent chants heard were "May shame on you", "dump Trump", "build bridges not walls" and "refugees are welcome here". Protesters pointed out that all the countries effected were Muslim majority nations and yet none of the countries targeted had any nationals implicated in any recent terrorist attack within the United States.
Ironically it is US foreign policy in the Middle East, including years of bombing and support for regional dictators that is one of the main causes of the current refugee crisis.
On 24 March 2018 In DC and other cities, hundreds of thousands of students and others marched to demand common sense gun control in the wake of deadly school shootings in the U.S.
