Last Saturday, represen-tatives from various unionsappeared at the Teamster’sUnion Hall located in southToledo to hear a keynotespeech by U.S. Congress-woman Marcy Kaptur con-cerning NAFTA, CAFTA,and the FTAA.
Unions are critical ofthese trade agreements be-cause of the devastating ef-fects they have had or willhave on U.S. jobs and work-ers and for the depletion ofthe civil rights of guestworkers.

MIAMI (AP): Pushingfor a victory after failedworld trade talks inMexico, officials fromacross the Americas agreedto move forward on a wa-tered-down outline for theworld’s largest free tradebloc.
Trade ministers from 34countries in the Americas,excluding only Cuba,were originally scheduledto finish their negotiationson the Free Trade Area ofthe Americas on Friday.But after days of debate,they said Thursday theyhad achieved all theycould in Miami.
The agreement, whichthe nations hope to for-malize by January 2005,will likely change whatfood consumers buy in su-permarkets as well as helpdictate the future jobs ofthe hemisphere’s workers.The declaration will beturned over to negotiatorsto solidify the details.
Ministers hailed theirfinal declaration as a vic-tory, with both the UnitedStates and Brazil—whichhave been locked in a tradefeud—saying it showedthere had been progress inbringing countries to-gether since World TradeOrganization talks col-lapsed two months ago inCancun, México.
The cheery outlook wasa sharp contrast from evena few weeks ago, whenministers had publiclybattled over how to reduce
Trade ministers from across Americas agreeto move forward on FTAABy TRACI CARLAP Business Writer
agricultural subsidies andprotect patents.
U.S. Trade Representa-tive Robert Zoellick saidministers had “learned somelessons” since Cancun, andhad moved the “FTAA intoa new phase, from generalconcepts and people talk-ing past each other to posi-tive realities.”
During the SeptemberWTO talks, Brazil led agroup of more than 20 na-tions, who insisted that theUnited States and Europeeliminate agriculture subsi-dies. Since the talks fellapart, the WTO’s 146 mem-bers have made littleprogress in breaking thedeadlock.
Brazilian Foreign Minis-ter Celso Amorim saidThursday’s declaration wasa good sign that there maybe future movement withinthe WTO, and he agreed thatcountries were no longer“dancing to the beat of theirown drummer, trying to ex-plain his or her position.”
During the FTAA talks,the Bush administration in-sisted on keeping negotia-tions on U.S. subsidies toAmerican farmers at the glo-bal level through the WTOand not have them part ofthe FTAA. Brazil has donethe same with discussionson investment and intellec-tual-property rights.
The FTAA declaration,hammered out by deputyministers on Wednesday,calls for a core agreementthat all countries wouldsign, but allows each na-tion to decide its commit-
ment to the more contro-versial topics.
The international aidorganization Oxfam criti-cized Thursday’s finaldraft as “blind to the needsof the poor.”
“The final declarationsimply papers over the ir-reconcilable difference be-tween narrow self-intereston the one hand, and theurgent need to reduce pov-erty on the other,” spokes-man Phil Bloomer said.
Police clashed withanti-FTAA demonstratorsa few blocks from the hotelwhere the trade meetingswere being held, firing rub-ber bullets and using plas-tic shields, concussiongrenades and stun guns topush back the crowd.
About 140 demonstra-tors were arrested, and 20people were taken to thehospital for treatment, in-cluding three police offic-ers.
The clashes came be-fore and after a peacefulmarch organized by U.S.labor unions. An estimated8,000 to 10,000 marcherstook part, arguing that theFTAA would take thou-sands of jobs to other coun-tries, reduce workers’rights by exploiting cheaplabor and drain natural re-sources.

ing family. Both of my par-ents understood the valueof education and stressedthis constantly to my twobrothers and me.
“My father agreed—heworked three jobs and al-ways told us that he did notwant any of us to work ashard as he and my motherdid.
“Both taught us the im-portance of education. Theirteachings paid off—mybrother, John, is a success-ful businessman/bankerand my brother, Victor, is anelectrician.”
Velásquez then spoke ofthe Mt. Olive Pickle Boycottand how it was recently de-termined that Farmer Jack’sSupermarkets are selling theMt. Olive product in at leastthe Toledo area.
The boycott has been on-going since 1999 and is sup-ported by numerous unionsand organizations includingthe Farm Labor OrganizingCommittee (FLOC). A de-tailed account of this boy-cott can be found atwww.floc.com.
FLOC successfully re-moved, via the boycott, allMt. Olive products in Ohio
stores including Krogersuntil this revelation.
When he joinedVelásquez in a march fouryears ago, Escobar wit-nessed the harsh workingconditions and exploita-tion of the migrant workerspicking cucumbers thatwere subsequently sold tothe Mt. Olive Company.
“It is hard to believethat in 2003 humans arestill taking advantage ofother human beings,”said Escobar, “and I willnot shop a t FarmerJack’s” until the boycottis honored.

AUSTIN (AP): Latino vot-ing strength has been dilutedin South Texas under a Re-publican congressional redis-tricting map, some state law-makers are telling the U.S.Justice Department as theagency decides whether to ap-prove the plan.
The Latino legislators saidthey have been contacted byofficials of the departmentasking them to voice their ob-jections. The Justice Depart-ment enforces the protectionof minority districts under thefederal Voting Rights Act andmust OK the map if it is to beused in Texas elections.
“Hopefully we can counton having them look at every-thing not based on partisan-ship, just based on what’s rightand what’s legal,” said Sen.Eddie Lucio, D-Brownsville.
A spokeswoman for Repub-lican Texas Attorney GeneralGreg Abbott said despite theconversations between theJustice Department and Demo-cratic lawmakers, the state’sattorneys who are defendingthe new redistricting plan be-lieve it will be approved.
“We feel confident that theplan will be upheld by theDepartment of Justice and willbe upheld by the three-judgepanel in the courts,” saidspokeswoman Angela Hale.
Democrats in the TexasHouse and Senate vigorouslyopposed redistricting all year,and their fights against it in-
cluded two out-of-state boy-cotts.
Lucio said he was calledrecently by a Justice Depart-ment official, Luz López Ortiz,and that he told her of his ob-jections to the plan. She wasinterested in having him puthis objections in writing, so hedid, Lucio said.
“I believe the plan will,among other things, cause se-rious retrogression to Hispanicvoting strength in the RioGrande Valley of South Texas,an area with perhaps the fastestgrowth of Hispanic popula-tion in the entire country,”Lucio wrote in a letter to Jo-seph D. Rich, voting sectionchief in the agency’s civilrights division.
Throughout this year’s legis-lative process, Lucio said, SouthTexans overwhelmingly opposedredistricting, but were ignored.
Another state legislator, Rep.Jim Solis, D-San Benito, said heis traveling to Washington formeetings Friday with officials atthe Justice Department.
Solis said his goal would beto inform the Justice Depart-ment of the “negative impact”the new map would have onthe minority voting rights ofCameron County residents.Congressional Districts 15 and27 in South Texas are drawn sothat Latino voting strength isdiluted and makes it more dif-ficult for residents to elect aLatino member, he said.
“Wherever you see His-panic numbers go down, as wedo in these two districts, thereis a real problem created forminority voters,” Solis said.
A trial on challenges tothe map is set for Dec. 11 inAustin.
The Republican plan at-tempts to “squeeze in” a newLatino district and make cer-tain districts stretch from theTexas-México border northinto Austin and CentralTexas, Lucio wrote. Thosedistricts could favor candi-dates from the northern end,leaving his border regionlacking in representation,Lucio said.
“If we don’t have some-body at the table, we’re go-ing to be losing out on thediscussions and the compro-mises that are taking place,”Lucio said in a telephoneinterview Wednesday.
Solis said he and othermembers of the House Mexi-can American LegislativeCaucus traveled to Washing-ton in 2001 to protest a TexasHouse map drawn by the Re-publican-controlled Legis-lative Redistricting Boardwhile it awaited similar Jus-tice Department clearance.They were successful inamending three key minor-ity districts, including Solis’District 38 seat, he said.
The GOP congressionalredistricting plan could giveRepublicans as many as sevenadditional seats in the state’scongressional delegation.Democrats now hold the ad-vantage, 17-15. Republicanlawmakers said they wantedmore members of their ownparty in Congress to betterreflect the state’s conserva-tive voting trends.
Lawmakers say Justice Department listeningto objectionsBy KELLEY SHANNONAssociated Press Writer
DEARBORN: State Rep-resentatives Paul Gieleghem(D-Clinton Township) andSteve Tobocman (D-South-west Detroit) joined ethnic andcommunity leaders at a pressconference to announce thatthey have offered resolutionsin the Michigan House of Rep-resentatives that ask Congressto amend the USA PATRIOTAct to ensure that civil rightsare protected.
“I have very grave con-cerns over certain provisionsof the USA PATRIOT ACT,”Tobocman said. “When thelaw erodes civil rights andunfairly targets religious andethnic minorities in the nameof fighting terrorism, it is any-thing but patriotic.”
“The Justice Departmentis infringing on the rights ofAmericans and justifying it inthe name of ‘fighting terror-ism,’” Gieleghem said. “Notonly does the Act deprive usof certain freedoms, it createsa climate of suspicion thatcreates roadblocks to coop-eration between Americansand the agencies engaged inensuring our safety. I believethat the PATRIOT Act as itnow stands is actually coun-terproductive to efforts to stopterrorism.”
The USA PATRIOT Actwas signed into law on Octo-ber 26, 2001, just weeks afterthe terrorist attacks of Sep-tember 11. PATRIOT gavesweeping new powers to en-
Legislators offer resolutions asking Congress toamend USA PATRIOT Act to protect your rights
forcement agencies and in theprocess eliminated some ofthe checks and balances thatensured such powers were notabused. Unfortunately, therehave been numerous accountsof the PATRIOT Act’s broadand far-reaching powers be-ing used to abuse Americans.Moreover, Gieleghem andTobocman believe, the po-tential for further abuse isunlimited unless steps aretaken now to curtail certainaspects of the Act.
According to the Bill ofRights Defense Committee,three states and more than 200cities, towns and counties havepassed resolutions, ordi-nances or ballot initiatives inan effort to protect the rightsof their residents.• How does the USA PATRIOTAct affect our civil rights?
·It threatens the First Amend-ment by allowing the JusticeDept to label domestic organi-zations as “terrorist groups;”
·It gives agencies ex-panded new surveillance pow-ers, without oversight, violat-ing the Fourth Amendment.Under the Act, law enforce-ment officials may enter homes,tap phones, read emails andaccess bank and other recordswithout prior court approval;
·It threatens the FifthAmendment right to due pro-cess by denying legal coun-sel to political prisoners;
·Allowing the indefinitedetainment of non-citizens
violates the Sixth and EighthAmendments;
·Indefinitely detaining sus-pects and denying them legalcounsel also violates the Four-teenth and Fifteenth amend-ments; and,
·Not only does the Act al-low agencies to detain sus-pects and deny them legalcounsel, but they don’t evenhave to tell them WHY theyare being detained.
“The Bill of Rights definesus as a nation,” Gieleghemsaid. “We must not allow fear,impatience or a desire for ex-pediency destroy the Ameri-can ideals that so many othernations look to emulate. Itwould be both reckless andironic to tear apart the veryfoundations of our democracyin order to save it.”
“No one is more sensitive tothe issue of national securitythan I am,” said Tobocman.“The Ambassador Bridge—thebusiest border crossing in NorthAmerica—is right in the heartof my district. We need toensure our national security,but we also need to make surethat we do it without erodingour civil liberties. I want to beclear about one thing: Repre-sentative Gieleghem and I fa-vor maintaining the necessaryelements in the Act that ensurethe security of all Americans.But, we strongly oppose vio-lating the guaranteed freedomsthat are the bedrock of our con-stitutional democracy.”

Estadísticas de la Policíareflejan que el año pasado seregistraron más de 14,000casos de mujeres afectadaspor la violencia doméstica,cantidad que se aproxima alos casos reportados en todala década de 90 cuando hubo15,000 casos en 10 años.
“El problema de laviolencia doméstica enPuerto Rico es alarmante”,dijo a un diario (El NuevoDía) Denise Countín,profesora de ComunicaciónTele-Radial del recinto.
El estudio también revelóque las mujeres víctimas deviolencia doméstica enPuerto Rico “no tienenprotagonismo alguno” en lashistorias que se informan enlos medios noticiosos.
“Examinamos unsinnúmero de recortes de losprincipales periódicos delpaís y encontramos quedestacan al máximo lasacciones del agresor y lavíctima sólo es un nombremás en esa historia”, opinó.
Hoy lunes, se presentaráuna conferencia para ampliarlos datos del estudio, en laSala de Conferencias de laBiblioteca del recinto deArecibo, como parte de laconmemoración del Día deNo Más Violencia Contra laMujer.

Anita López, executive director of Affirmative Actionand Contract Compliance, City of Toledo
Thursday, Nov. 27 at 10:00PMand Sunday, Nov. 30 at 1:00PM
Mayor Jack Ford, declaringthat it is the City of Toledo’schallenge, and responsibility,to foster full employment of itscitizens and to impact the localeconomy by keeping money inthe area, announced that hisadministration has “found away to do that.”
Ford will be presenting toCity Council, within the nextfew weeks, three amendmentsto the municipal code that willoutline steps to keep more lo-cal dollars at home.
The first amendment willincrease the local preferenceby one percentage point.
The second amendment willincrease the threshold for for-mal bidding from $10,000 to$40,000.
Keeping Toledo Dollars atHomeBy Fletcher WordLa Prensa Staff Writer
The third amendment willenable to City of Toledo toevaluate bids on more thanmerely the dollar amount.
The responsibility foroverseeing the bidding pro-cess and ensuring that the newguidelines are effectivelyimplemented rests with theOffice of Affirmative Action.
The one percentage pointincrease of the first amend-ment has two levels. On bidsof less than $40,000, bids fromlocal contractors would bereviewed as if the bid werediscounted by three percentinstead of the current two per-cent. On bids of more than$40,000 the discount will in-crease from four to five per-cent.
The second amendment’schange from $10,000 to$40,000 means that no publiccompetitive bidding need besought for contracts of up tothat amount. Bids of less than$40,000 would still need coun-cil approval, however.
According to Anita López,executive director of Affirma-tive Action and Contract Com-pliance, 40 of the approxi-mately 300 contracts the cityaccepted in fiscal year 2002were under $40,000.
Ford and López pointed tothis provision as being espe-cially beneficial to minorityand women-owned businessenterprises since most of thecompetitive bids submittedby MBE’s and WBE’s are inthe under-$40,000 category.The city’s listing of MBE’sand WBE’s has tripled underthe Ford administration, saidLopez.
The third amendment—the Responsible Bidders Leg-islation—is the key to increas-ing local participation in con-
tracts awarded by the city. Thistype of legislation has alreadybeen adopted by neighboringlarger cities such as Cleve-land, Columbus, and Detroit.
“I’m amazed when a com-pany comes from out of stateor region and snags a two orthree-million dollar contract,”said Ford. “If our guys were togo to Detroit, they would runinto what Detroit calls its ‘re-sponsible-bidding law.’”
Responsible Bidders Leg-islation enables the city tolook beyond the dollar quotesubmitted and to examine theexperience and reputation forquality of the bidders. Localtrade unions were particularlyanxious to include this amend-ment with the revisions to thecode.
In order to streamline thebidding process, said López,contractors can be pre-quali-fied. “Their safety records,experience and workforce all
will be considered similar towhat the State of Ohio doesnow,” she said.
López added that the newprocess will ultimately bemore “business-friendly.”
At the press conference,Ford pointed to several ex-amples of work that had beencommissioned in recent yearsby the City of Toledo that hadbeen performed well belowacceptable standards and mayhave to be reworked.
The mayor addressed theissue of the impact on theToledo economy of the pro-posed amendments. While thecity may indeed find it payingmore for certain bids, he saidthe economy would profitimmediately.
“If you accept the ‘multi-plier effect’ as do most econo-mists, the result of keepingdollars here is a seven-foldincrease in dollars circulatingthrough the local economy.”

La Prensa DirectoryNovember/noviembre 26, 2003
ARIES: (March 21-April 20)Just when you were on a roll, your momentum slows
down and everything sputters to a snail’s pace. Plan a fewoutings to spice things up. If you’ve been holding yourfeelings back, don’t. Go to the other extreme and expressaffections intensely.
TAURUS: (April 21 - May 21)You may feel on top of the world, both physically and
emotionally—don’t take unnecessary risks. Use a closefriend as a sounding board for those ideas that have beenchurning within you for some time. If practical, your ideaswill be good.
GEMINI: (May 22 - June 21)Just being yourself will be a big asset in the workplace and
at home. Your personal finance situation is rosy, be aware ofget rich quick schemes, and make sure to think thingsthrough completely. Adjust to whatever it is that is bother-ing you.
CANCER: (June 22 - July 23)Doors will open which will lead to wonderful family,
property or household developments. Start the week withyour eye fixed on an important target. If you don’t concen-trate and stick to your resolve, a number of possible distrac-tions will send you off course.
LEO: (July 24- August 23)Your romantic prospects are likely to enjoy a lively
upswing during the weeks ahead, as well as life in general.You will no doubt have more free time for pleasures. Theromance theme will continue for some time, but you nowhave a more realistic view about love.
VIRGO: (August 24 - September 23)A brighter future, concerning career activities, will now
be in plain view. Many actions will be related to yourincome, so plan carefully. There is a fortunate accent on yourhome and property interests this week, and your personalaims are supported by all.
LIBRA: (September 24 - October 23)Don’t push your luck concerning a job or career oppor-
tunity. Confidence is good, but what you may be bankingon now is not a sure thing. Your efficiency on the job willbe noted by a superior. You will receive answers to somequestions today.
SCORPIO: (October 24 - November 22)Caution is the keyword. Try not to sound off in the heat
of the moment; you will no doubt say things you will laterregret. Be careful regarding any transportation plans. Youhave ideas that will eventually come to fruition, but bepractical.
SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 - December 21)Love and marriage is definitely in the air. If you are
already married, you and your partner will share and com-municate even more, which will strengthen the rapportwithin your relationship. If you are presently on the side-lines, you may soon fall in love!
CAPRICORN: (December 22 - January 20)This week may seem long and unduly drawn out. There
is trouble everywhere you look, so be aware of what you sayand what you do; others may be overly sensitive. Concen-trate on doing your best at work, instead of worrying aboutromantic uncertainties.
AQUARIUS: (January 21 - February 19)Don’t take on any more tasks than you can really handle,
or you may find yourself feeling totally drained. If there isa problem, you need to speak out and not let negativefeelings fester inside. Work on your various friendships thisweek, people need to know you care.
PISCES: (February 20 - March 20)A family member or friend could use some of your
sympathy and quiet understanding this week. You are intune to a lover’s feelings and are appreciated for this fact.Watch out for any mood swings that may cause you tooverdo it with regards to spending or eating and drinking.
IF THIS WEEK IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: You don’tmake it easy for other people to know you, putting up bigwalls between you and those around you and wonderingwhy no one tries to get through them. Let others see your fun-loving side.

NUEVA YORK (AP): AlexRodríguez se convirtió en elsegundo pelotero de unequipo sotanero que gana elpremio al jugador más valiosotras vencer a lospuertorriqueños CarlosDelgado y Jorge Posada en lavotación de la Liga Ameri-cana.
Al recibir la noticia,Rodríguez dio la novedad quelos Rangers de Texas le hanplanteado transferirlo deequipo.
“Los directivos me hanplanteado esa posibilidad yalgunas otras alternativas. Laspuertas están abiertas porahora”, declaró Rodríguez enuna conferencia telefónica enMéxico, donde se encuentra.
El torpedero acumuló 242puntos en la votación de laAsociación de Cronistas deBéisbol de Estados Unidos,difundida el lunes.
Delgado, inicialista de losAzulejos, llegó segundo con213 puntos y Posada, receptorde los Yanquis, fue tercero con194.
La decisión fue bastantedividida, a decir de los 10peloteros diferentes querecibieron votos al primerlugar.
El año pasado, Rodríguezfue segundo el año pasadodetrás del torpederodominicano Miguel Tejada delos Atléticos y en 1996 quedóa tres puntos del boricua JuanGonzález de los Rangers.
“Este es un honor muyimportante para mí”, dijoRodríguez. “Me siento muyorgulloso. Es el premio a todomi trabajo duro y la dedicaciónque le he puesto al béisbol”.
Rodríguez, de ascendenciadominicana, apareció primeroen seis de las papeletas, lamenor cantidad para unganador del galardón desdeque Yogi Berra se impuso en1951.
Delgado y Posada se

anotaron cinco votos a primerocada uno.
La vez anterior que unpelotero de un equipo sotanerose llevó el laurel ocurrió en1987, con Andre Dawson delos Cachorros de Chicago.
El nombre de Rodríguezfue el único que apareció entodas las papeletas.
Sus números a la ofensivahablan por sí solos: 298 depromedio, 47 jonrones, 124carreras anotadas y 600 en slug-ging. En los dos últimosrenglones fue el líder de laliga. También produjo 118carreras, escoltando a Delgado(145).
Esta fue la tercera campañade Rodríguez con la camisetade los Rangers, últimos en elOeste de la Americana conmarca de 71-91.
Llegó a los Rangers tras latemporada de 2000, cuandoTexas lo fichó por diez años y252 millones de dólares, elcontrato más jugoso en lahistoria.
Delgado conectó para 302y 42 jonrones con Toronto,mientras que Posada ligó para281 con los Yanquis,añadiendo 30 jonrones y 101impulsadas.
Shannon Stewart, quien amedia temporada pasó deToronto a Minnesota, fuecuarto con 140 puntos, seguidopor el dominicano David Ortizde Boston con 130. Stewartrecibió tres votos a primero yOrtiz cuatro.
Atras quedaron eldominicano Manny Ramírezy Nomar Garcíaparra, ambosde Boston; Vernon Wells deToronto; Tejada de Oakland; yJason Giambi de los Yanquis,todos con un voto a primero.

Freight Train by Yoko Ono
El pasado miércoles, 19 denoviembre, lai n t e r n a c i o n a l m e n t ereconocida artista conceptualYoko Ono estuvo presente enla reunión anual de Amigosdel Arte Moderna, la cual sellevó a cabo en el Detroit Insti-tute of Arts. Una placa con elcomentario de la artista enespañol fue otorgada einstalada junto a su escultura«Freight Train» (Tren deCarga) que presentemente esexhibida en el instituto.
«Freight Train» es unferrocarril con 1,000 balazos,los cuales perforaroncompletamente la superficiede la pintura azul del vagón.El ferrocarril es iluminadodesde adentro, permitiendoque de los agujeros salganluces poderosas. También deadentro se escucha música,también creada por Ono. Estosefectos fueron creados paraprovocar el sentimiento deesperanza de los espíritusatrapados dentro del vagón.
Ono fue inspirada por latragedia que ocurrió en 1987,donde 18 immigrantesmexicanos murieron luego deque fueron abandonadosdentro de un vagón en SierraBlanca, Texas. De acuerdo ala artista, el incidente se volvió
en el concepto guía para «untrabajo de reparación por lainjusticia y dolor que hemosexperimentado en este siglo,expresando resistencia,curación y esperanza para elpróximo siglo».
La escultura fue traída alDetroit Institute of Arts el 17 deseptiembre y fue colocada en laesquina de Woodward yFarnsworth. Es posible caminarhacia la escultura, aunque elvagón esta cerrado con llave.«Freight Train» a sido exhibidaen otras ciudades como Berlín,Yokohama y Nueva York. Entodas las ciudades ha tenido unsignificado diferente; porejemplo, en Berlín provocórecuerdos del Holocausto. De-troit fue escogida por ser unaciudad fronteriza, por la cualenfrenta temas como laimmigración, y por sucomunidad mexicanacreciente.
Yoko Ono, quién celebrósu cumpleaños numero 70, esconocida por sus obras de artes,su original forma de cantar ysu innovadora música. Onotambién es viuda del fallecidoJohn Lenon, quién fueintegrante del famoso y con-troversial grupo de rockbritánico, The Beatles. Suescultura «Freight Train»estará en el Detroit Institute ofArts, 5200 Woodward Avenue,hasta la primavera del 2004.
«Freight Train» de Yoko Onoen el DIApor Wendy Cuellar
ocurrieron poco antes ydespués de una marcha en laque participaron entre8.000 y 10.000 trabajadoresde distintos sindicatos.
La policía decidióbloquear y blindar la zonafinanciera y comercial deMiami a fin de prevenir losdestrozos similares que hansufrido otras ciudades quehan acogido cumbresinternacionales en susrespectivos centrosfinancieros.
Los enfrentamientos seprodujeron cerca al hoteldonde se reúnen losdelegados de 34 países deAmérica para crear una zonade libre comercio en elcontinente, excepto enCuba.
Los agentes de seguridadtuvieron que usar sus porraspara impedir el avance dedecenas de manifestantes,que cubrían con pañuelossus bocas y algunos de ellos,con máscaras de gas. Lapolicía calculó que eranunos 1.000manifestantes,quienesintentaron quitar las barrerasde seguridad con ganchoslargos.
Los agentes de seguridadusaron sus bastones contralos manifestantes.
Tras la marcha, los
manifestantes iniciaronpequeños incendios de basuraen las calles, intentaronempujar a las líneas depolicías y les lanzaronbotellas de agua.
Los policías respondieroncon gases lacrimógenos ybalas recubiertas de goma.
En uno de los momentosmás tensos de la mañana, lapolicía lanzó gases que olíana huevos podridos contra laturba.
Los manifestantesportaban carteles que decían:“Egoismo corporativo” y“ALCA contamina elpescado”.
El jefe de la Policía, JohnTimoney señaló que “elinicio difícil”, de lasmanifestaciones del díaocurrió porque la policíatrataba de disolver a losmanifestantes que no teníanpermiso de estar en lascalles.
Los enfrentamientosprovocaron una demora decasi una hora a la marcha quefue organizada por lossindicatos más grandes delpaís, que también se oponenal pacto comercial que se estánegociando.
Los manifestantesaseguran que este acuerdoenviará miles de empleosestadounidenses a otrospaíses, explotarán la mano deobra barata y acabará con losrecursos naturales.
