AMERIQUE:


A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: It is the unspoken statistic, but it is as real as anything to do with the lingering U.S. war efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan. According to the military, 1,800 American servicemen have killed themselves since the initial invasion of Baghdad. That is in addition to the more than 4,000 who died in battle. This week, families of the soldiers who committed suicide asked President Barack Obama to change the government policy of not forwarding letters of appreciation to mothers and fathers of these servicemen. By week's end, the White House had reversed the policy and agreed that such letters are needed, as well... - Eduardo Paz-Martinez, Editor of The Tribune

That Time Of the Year...As Summer Roars, We Take A Needed Break...See You later...

By EDUARDO PAZ-MARTINEZ
Editor of The Tribune

AUSTIN, Texas - We've been putting this off for a few weeks, but the time has come to shut The Tribune down for a few weeks. A break is always good for the brain and the soul.

We shall return at a still-to-be-determined date.

See you then...

All:...Again, we fend off the reckless fiction offered by Harlingen toy blogger Tony Chapa. The Tribune is ON BREAK and will return. Efforts by the hateful dwarf to change the world with his little fingers again fail... - Editor

Soldiers lost to suicide are forever lost to their parents. It is only right that their parents receive our sympathy. Not everyone is able to withstand war and the pain and ugliness that goes with it. We ask and expect so much of our service people in uniform and they get so little back from us. It would be a better world if no one ever had to go to war again but that's not reality.

Paz-Martinez, forget Chapa!!! Just ignore his postings.

As far as the guy who killed that Araiza lady in Harlingen? How long did Harlingen PD have that Sexual Assault warrant on him? Could they have possibly prevented that murder had they arrested him? Did they even bother to look for this guy? Looks like he is an alcohol or drug user? I would think that the officers in the narcotics unit or a good street cop would have known this guy? I just found it odd that the guy is arrested for the murder and then they add a charge of the Sexual Assault? I think that this is something that needs to be looked into because if that warrant was outstanding before the murder, then sounds like HPD failed to serve and protect the public?
