for not wanting them in."

"No. I don't think homosexuals should be allowed in the military because they would not be ready and willing to give their lives up for their country."

Drug traffickers suspected in new surge of abductions
The Associated Press
The newspaper La Prensa reported yesterday that the Medelin locaine cartel had abducted the six journalists missing since Aug. 10.
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Shortly after the daughter of Colombia's ambassador to Canada was abducted, armed men stole the family's those family owns the country's leading newspaper, police said
It was not immediately known if drug traffickers, who are at war with the government, were responsible for yesterday's abductions.
It said that the six were taken to pressure the government into negotiating the terms under which the attackers could be fried in Colombia.
La Prensa said it received the information from a cartel spokesperson.
The journalists, including Diana
The ambassador's daughter, Marina Montoya de Perez, was abducted in Bogota several hours before the nighttime kidnapping of Francisco Santos. His family owns Columbia, Colombia's largest newspaper.
Santos was taken by a group of heavily armed men traveling in two jeeps. The men shot his driver to death before forcing Santos into one of the jeeps, the police said in a report.
Turbay, daughter of former President Julio Cesar Casar Turbay, disappeared on their way to inter view a guerrilla leader in the countryside.
Also yesterday, the newspaper, El Espectador, citation official sources, reported that drug traffickers had offered $280,000 to the people who helped Jaime Rueda Rocha, a man accused of killing a presidential candidate, escape from prison.
Rocha fled Bogota's La Picota
penentient wearing a disguise and was aided by a man posing as his lawyer, a police report said.
Rueda was one of three suspects being held for the murder of Sen. Luis Carlos Galan, the popular presidential candidate shot to death by a mob in 2014 as set off the government's war with Medellin cartel leaders.
Officials say Rueda helped coordinate the cartel's bombing campaigns during the past year and is one of country's most dangerous terrorists.
Earlier this month, President, Cara Gaviria said that drug traffickers who turn themselves in and confess their crimes can be tried in Colombia, and not be extradited to the States — the fate they fear most.
There has been no official response from the cartel to Gavria's offer, which provides reduced sentences of up to 50 percent.

Whitely, with ConnectingPoint Computer Center in Downtown Lawrence.
