Oscar Alberto Martines hailed from El Salvador -
his daughter saw him enter the river -
to cross the river - and followed her father -
Angie Valeria - show in this photograph years
ago when she was an angel and an infant -
not to say she was not when she met her ill fate.

As human beings - all over the world - we all have some affinity been human.
A bonding with all our humanity, we all know deep in our hearts of this affinity - our conscience kicks in - when any human is harmed - we say to ourselves and those we love and care - " this wrong must be righted".
The one of kind photographs from the various wars - have brought us together.
When a photograph or an article has touched our conscience - we rally and do right - we represent as decent human beings.
In recent years the bombing in Syria and the photographs of children adversely impacted us most.
The downing of a Syrian child on the shores of Greece, and now this father and daughter drowning - on our Southern Border - a photograph that went viral - here, in the United States of America.
Thousand of families from the Triangle El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras - all adversely impacted with poor economies - cartels murder innocent folks, pandemonium reigning supreme - with lack of food and lack of law and order - for years on end - and the innocent people cannot take it any more.
Innocent undocumented immigrants -
want asylum - but so many want it -
that those in authority at the Southern Border - deny asylum. -
Forcing a person such as Oscar Alberto to
take matters into his hands - his daughter
followed him into the river - all recorded on location -
his death and that of his daughter - speaks -
turning away - and dashing the HOPE of those
that journey - thousands of miles - hopes dashed
turning away - and dashing the HOPE of those
that journey - thousands of miles - hopes dashed
to " lack of sensitivity" - lack of " humanity " -
he committed NO crime - that is a paradox - he just wanted
to share in the Freedom and Liberty in the United States

our Statue of Liberty says it all -
give me your poor ......
The situation at the border - is pathetic to say the least - hundreds o children and youth cramped into small spaces.
Many - have not had a shower for months - the stench and smell of feces and other contamination - has created of sorts of adverse impacts - hygiene does NOT exist.
Many - have not had a shower for months - the stench and smell of feces and other contamination - has created of sorts of adverse impacts - hygiene does NOT exist.
Many so sick - purging, dysentery, flu, pneumonia, high fever, most of the victims - children and youth - adversely impacted and traumatized for life - and this is a crying shame.
Some journalist have interviewed the children and youth in Spanish - and find the children and youth - disoriented - repeating the same sentences.
Most o the children and youth - afraid to speak what they really know about the situation at hand.
All sorts of " fear tactics " - have been used to keep the horrendous and nefarious actives - hush. Every single day - some children, some youth - is left with scars for life.

Some of us cannot make it to the " border " - as much as I would like to go to a place like what is happening today on the border - I cannot go.
I have done it before - more when I had the contacts - knew people in high places - that could prepare the way for me - to do some investigative reporting.
Seeing is believing - as I said I have done it before - and found a way to find solutions.
Today more and more good journalists - have to though hoops and hurdles - and many put their lives - in harms way.

The people united -
will never, ever be defeated -
this White House must be ashamed of themselves -
more its leader who is an anathema.
Today more and more good journalists - have to though hoops and hurdles - and many put their lives - in harms way.
It is simply wrong to traumatize our infants, children, youth, the adults more parents - all treated with disdain.
It does not help the present sitting President - blaming the Democrats and President Barrack Hussein Obama.
President Barrack Hussein Obama - who could have done better - turned more illegal immigrants back.
Many of the immigrants - fell into the hands of Cartels - and were tortured, many killed - others sold as human slaves, and a whole list of horror deeds - could be told - but it does not serve any viable and holistic purpose.
Suffice to say all this and more happened with the Democrats could have done better - and failed to do so - including the Leader of the House - Nancy Pelosi - who should be ashamed of herself. She failed to support the Dreamers - she failed to support our immigrants - and today talks from both sides of her mouth.
Nancy the trembler - always quoting Abraham Lincoln and others - folks that lived a long time ago - and did not face the situation we face today.
Good leaders know the way , show the way and go the way.
Fuck these women who think they can be invincible - when they have NO power to help the homeless, the immigrants, the Elders dying on our streets, hoodwinking and bluffing the public at large - bring women together - and further causing divisiveness - on many other fronts.
If men got tougher - held a Summit - and titled is Invincible - it would create a ruckus.
Now we men know how to treat those who think they have power - little power - that has led them to be arrogant and what is more - display their ignorance on many levels.
What is need today both from men and women is empathy and compassion - empirical data - on issues - Blue Prints with short term and long term goals.

This photograph has been shown -
around the world -
never mind that most Americans are decent -
as a Nation - our name is tarnished -
all because of one -
egoistical maniac - who makes his abode
in the White House.
Our House and Senate quickly passed a budget to address the situation at the Southern Border and more - too late to save Oscar Alberto Martinez and Angie Valeria.
They committed NO crime - they just want to be free in a place we called the United States of America.

When I saw the photograph - I was shocked.
I have written about this situation at hand.
There are some that need to be reminded - that they think they represent the people but they do not - even here in San Francisco. One of them Mayor London Breed - all talk and NO walk.

San Francisco played a key role in the 1980s - with Law Enforcement and others - having disdain for those seeking refuge in San Francisco.
We fought to make San Francisco - a Sanctuary City - convincing Law Enforcement and those having disdain - we could do better in San Francisco.
We won this fight - and have set the record straight.
We won this fight - and have set the record straight.
Those on the frontlines - had to do the heavy lifting - the hard work.
The Mayors and the SF Board of Supervisors - were slow in reacting - positively.
It took a long time - to bring them on board - and in the end we won. God sees it all.

I remember talking the Chiefs of Police - and assuring them that most of the immigrants needed help - most listened to me and my supporters.
I tried to explain the situation with the thousands of Europeans - before and after World War 11 - who came to the shores of America - better known as Turtle Island.

For some strange reason - when it comes to the people from the Middle East, from Africa, from Asia, from South America - in short - the indigenous people - the disdain for refugees this Administration has - and knows NO bounds. The disdain for the Immigrant by this White House has reached saturation point.
President Andrew Jackson -
the 7th U.S. Present -
his disdain for the indigenous people
knew no bounds - much like the present
White House and the many lackey -
leading the pack Kushner - who is a JOKE.
This Administration reminds me of President Andrew Jackson - that was a different time - but the same disdain for the indigenous people.
This is Muwekma Ohlone land - our love for the indigenous and the refugees who who have suffered so much - and just want to be free and come here - to make a decent living - is something we all recognize and support.
The Great Spirit sees it all - we know who are the indigenous people - we know who has been here for over 15,000 years.
We understand that " evil " cannot reign supreme - it will co me to an end. Those committing that present atrocities - on innocent people - those who do not take a stand - will fall flat on their face. Aho.
