Thousands Protest against Gay Marriage in over 100 Cities in Mexico



MEXICO CITY – Thousands of people took to the streets in 120 cities across Mexico this weekend to protest President Enrique Peña Nieto’s plan to amend the constitution to recognize same-sex marriages.

The National Front for the Family organized marches Saturday in 29 states to express opposition to the same-sex marriage proposal unveiled by the president in May and backed by the Supreme Court.

Peña Nieto’s plan, which is opposed by the Catholic Church, awaits debate in Congress.

The governing Institutional Revolutionary Party, however, said a few weeks ago that the measure was not “among the priorities” for the next Congress.

The National Front for the Family plans a march to support traditional marriage on Sept. 24 in Mexico City.

Two Lawyer's killed in Shooting at Prosecutor’s Office in Mexico



GUADALAJARA, Mexico – Two people were killed and three others wounded in this western Mexican metropolis on Wednesday as the result of a shooting inside the Jacinto state Attorney General’s Office, AG Eduardo Almaguer said.

The fatalities include the shooter, 56-year-old Luis Homero Aguila, a lawyer in private practice who came to the building on business, the attorney general told a press conference.

When he was unable to find the person he came to see, Aguila returned to the reception area and began shooting, Almaguer said.

Aguila, a regular visitor to the office, was able to enter the building with two handguns due to guards’ failure to carry out a routine security check, the attorney general said.

The lawyer killed social worker Maria Veronica Garcia Carmona, 58, and wounded two other women as well as an AG Office investigator.

Hearing the shots, several armed agents rushed to the reception area and fatally shot Aguila.

Though the assailant claimed to be an army veteran and was known as “General Aguila,” Mexican defense officials said they could find no record he had ever served in the military.

Aguila had “behavioral problems,” but authorities are still trying to determine whether he suffered from any mental illness, the attorney general said.

Almaguer denied media reports that Aguila had made death threats against AG Office employees on more than one occasion.

The two women wounded in the shooting are in “very serious condition,” according to Marcelo Castillero, the Jacinto delegate of the IMSS health service

Obama Warns of Serious Consequences after N. Korean Nuclear Test



WASHINGTON, United States - The latest nuclear test by North Korea early in the day will have serious consequences, U.S. President Barack Obama warned Friday.

In a White House statement, Obama called the nuclear test a "provocation" and reiterated that the U.S. was committed to the security of its allies in Asia and throughout the world.

Obama also spoke on the telephone with South Korean President Park Geun-hye and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, after National Security Advisor Susan Rice briefed him on the seismic activity detected in North Korea.

At 9.30 am Seoul time on Friday, a 5-magnitude artificial earthquake was detected near the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site in North Korea, which the Kim regime confirmed later as its fifth nuclear test.

Obama will continue holding discussions with U.S. allies and partners over the next few days to address North Korea's provocative actions, the statement added. 

Mexico- Drug dealer's shoot down police helicopter



MORELIA, Mexico – Suspected drug traffickers downed a police helicopter in the western Mexican state of Michoacan, killing the pilot and three officers, Gov. Silvano Aureoles said.

The governor said on Twitter that the attack occurred while the helicopter was providing support to an operation aimed at arresting leaders of criminal cells in an area difficult to access by land.

He added that one other officer was injured.

The attack occurred Tuesday afternoon in La Angostura, a community in the south-central part of Michoacan, while the helicopter was providing support for soldiers and federal and state police during an operation targeting an armed group that was believed to be escorting Ignacio Andrade Renteria, or “El Cenizo.”

Andrade Renteria has been identified as the former chief enforcer of Los Caballeros Templarios (Knights Templar), a drug gang weakened since 2013 by the emergence of vigilante groups in Michoacan.

Andrade Renteria currently is on the Mexican authorities’ list of most-wanted suspects.

Last weekend, soldiers and police seized an arsenal that included two rocket launchers and three anti-tank missiles after two clashes with purported enforcers on the payroll of El Cenizo.

El Cenizo allegedly currently works for the Jalisco Nueva Generacion cartel, which operates in Michoacan along with the Nueva Familia Michoacana, Los Caballeros Templarios, Los Viagras and Los H-3 gangs, among others.
