		<description>Solo una otra punta while I&#039;m on my little soapbox here-- this is yet another argument here in favor of further fostering specifically Latino chambers of commerce and providing grants to specifically sponsor Latino businesses, which hire Latino workers and cater to Latino customers.  This is a way to convert our budding demographic and economic power into social and political power as well, and it also provides a means for us to assist and protect our fellow Latinos who are suffering persecution.  This should happen throughout the 50 states but, again, the Southwest and Florida should be our core for this.

Along with increased home-schooling for our children-- home-schooling in which we conduct a significant portion of the instruction using Spanish as the medium, ensuring that our kids know professional as well as basic Spanish-- this is one of the ways that we can make a big difference for ourselves at the individual and group levels alike.  

Y es entre las mejoras maneras luchar para nuestros derechos con metodias que crecen nuestro poder economico al mismo tiempo que nos permite mejor protegamos nuestra gente aqui!</description>

		<description>BTW I now know dozens of other Latinos who&#039;ve left Tennessee, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, the Carolinas, Georgia-- and, yes, Massachusetts-- to resettle in our historical homelands from California thru Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and south Florida, and &lt;b&gt;every single one&lt;/b&gt; is pleased with the choice.  

Only a slight increase in cost-of-living in some cases (and actually less expensive in many others), in return for living here with our kin, being able to stand up and protect each other, hablan espanol en estados donde se lo fomenta bajo la ley, and of course-- and just as importantly-- operating our own businesses as Latinos, catering to other Latinos and hiring Latinos.  That is, fostering our own economy and our own community here against the racists who hate us and will always hate us, no matter how much we may try to pretend to be White for them.

		<description>Estas cosas me enojan tanto!  

Is there nothing that the Minutemen-types and the anti-Latino secret police in the government won&#039;t stoop to?  It&#039;s surprised me how much Massachusetts, a supposedly liberal state, has been so vicious toward Latinos here.  

We&#039;re all probably familiar with other Latino-hating hotbeds such as Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Idaho, Arkansas, Montana and Indiana-- all conservative states packed with Minuteman types-- but Massachusetts has joined this ignominious list as well.

I&#039;ve said it before, and I&#039;ll say it now-- if Latinos here in the USA are going to survive, we have to concentrate ourselves here geographically, in the states where we have growing political, social and demographic power.  We have to become the majority in these states and attain political power and economic gains, it&#039;s the only way we can protect and stand up for ourselves and, most importantly, to protect our brethren from south of the border who are being persecuted.

The most important states for us to gather, and where our power is growing:  California, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas and southern Florida.  It&#039;s in these states that we have the most power and potential to take control of events to our advantage.  It&#039;s here that we have our greatest historical presence both before and after the Mexican War, it&#039;s in these states that Spanish is equal to English dating back to the treaties following la guerra estadounidense, most importantly, it&#039;s here that we can control the institutions and lend protection to our brethren south of the Rio Grande who are being persecuted here.

We can&#039;t be dispersing these days.

Debemos concentrarnos y nuestros esfuerzos aqui en esta region, especialmente en el suroeste, pues dentro de cinco, estara nosotros que gobernamos nuestro futuro y protegemos nuestros hermanos y hermanas que buscan la justicia!</description>

		<description>Cero - now that is wacked. The police are getting power hungry. As they continue to be given more power, I fear one day, we as a society will be to afraid to leave our homes.

I do admire your compassion. I would imagine that it must have been really hard for you considering it didn&#039;t go as well as you hoped it did. Thank you for sharing.</description>

		<description>Hey XP,

The link on immigration orange is broken because of technical difficulties but here&#039;s &lt;a&gt;a new one&lt;/a&gt;.

I think best way to put ICE on the defensive on this one is to call the Rhode Island Attorney General (RIAG) and the U.S. District Attorney for Rhode Island and pressure them into investigating Araujo&#039;s death.  The RIAG will say it is a federal matter but Araujo&#039;s sister was turned away from the Woonsocket police when she wanted to bring her brother his medication.  The Woonsocket police are under the RIAG&#039;s jurisdiction.  Their contact information is as follows.

		<description>Yes. Also - in general it does not seem that jails know what to do about people who need medication (unless they already know them, as in a prison). I had some trouble fairly recently getting insulin to a diabetic in parish prison here (=county jail) and it was a similar thing - had to bail the person out because PP wouldn&#039;t believe he needed medication. He&#039;d been picked up due to diabetic attack, low blood sugar, they thought it was a Drug Thing, and the last thing they wanted was insulin and oh my, a syringe.

[It was my ex, I was sick of him not eating so he&#039;d have a crisis so I&#039;d have to rescue him, this was why I was going to let him get his own self out of jail, but no insulin = certain death !!!]</description>

		<description>XP,

No one can rake through the mud like you.  Let&#039;s put the authorities on the defense on this one.  Let&#039;s ask the officials to investigate this death.  The Rhode Island Attorney General&#039;s office is a good place to start.

    &lt;blockquote&gt;Rhode Island AG&#039;s Patrick Lynch site

    http://www.riag.state.ri.us/
    150 South Main Street
    Providence, RI 02903
    Phone: (401) 274-4400
    Patrick Lynch ext. 2338
    directory http://www.riag.ri.gov/directory.php
    Wiki on him http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_C._Lynch
    Apparently he played pro basketball in Ireland(!!??!)

    Only email I could fine was the press office mhealey@riag.ri.gov&lt;/blockquote&gt;

They are going to say that there is not a need to investigate this since Araujo died in federal custody.  But it was the Woonsocket police that initially detained Araujo and according to the Boston Globe they turned his sister away when she tried to bring in medication.  

In order to get federal officials to investigate ICE we&#039;re going to have to go to United State&#039;s Attorney&#039;s Office for the District of Rhode Island.  The contact information for them is:

&lt;blockquote&gt;United States Attorney&#039;s Office - District of Rhode Island
