In the face of cruelty, we will choose compassion. In the face of those who would visit death upon innocents, we will choose to save and to comfort and to heal. We'll choose friendship. We'll choose love.The Scripture teaches us, God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love and self-discipline. And that's the spirit you've displayed in recent days. When doctors and nurses, police and firefighters, and EMTs and guardsmen run towards explosions to treat the wounded, that's discipline.When exhausted runners, including our troops and veterans who never expected to see such carnage on the streets back home, become first responders themselves, tending to the injured, that's real power.When Bostonians carried victims in their arms, deliver water and blankets, line up to give blood, open their homes to total strangers, give them rides back to reunite with their families, that's love.That's the message we send to those who carried this out and anyone who would do harm to our people. Yes, we will find you. And, yes, you will face justice.(APPLAUSE)We will find you. We will hold you accountable. But more than that, our fidelity to our way of life, to our free and open society will only grow stronger, for God has not given us the spir Blocked by Congress from expanding gun sale background checks, President Obama is turning to actions within his own power to keep people from buying a gun who are prohibited for mental health reasons.Federal law bans certain mentally ill people from purchasing firearms, but not all states are providing data to stop the prohibited sales to the FBI's background check system. A federal review last year found 17 states contributed fewer than 10 mental health records to the database, meaning many deemed by a judge to be a danger still could have access to guns.The Obama administration was starting a process Friday aimed at removing barriers in health privacy laws that prevent some states from reporting information to the background check system. The action comes two days after the Senate rejected a measure that would have required buyers of firearms online and at gun shows to pass a background check. That's already required for shoppers at licensed gun dealers.Stung by the defeat, Obama vowed to keep up the fight for the background check expansion but also to do what he could through executive action."Even without Congress, my administration will keep doing everything it can to protect more of our communities," Obama said from the Rose Garden shortly after the Senate voted. "We're going to address the barriers that prevent states from participating in the existing background check system."Obama also mentioned giving law enforcement more info ------=Part.997.6842.1377031198 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <html> <center> <strong><center><a href="http://www.mauisherodtasia.info/1953/55/129/409/869.10tt71675797AAF9.html"><H3>Blood Pressure Myth Exposed...?</a></H3></strong> <a href="http://www.mauisherodtasia.info/1953/55/129/409/869.10tt71675797AAF9.html"><img src="http://www.mauisherodtasia.info/1953/55/129/71675797/409.869/img05512943.jpg" border=0></a><br> <br> <a href="http://www.mauisherodtasia.info/1953/55/129/409/869.10tt71675797AAF3.html">Update Preferences</a><br> <br> Marine Essentials<br> 10326 S.

The department was allegedly concerned that the high court, in the course of reviewing that case, would strike down a major element of civil rights enforcement.The case the Justice Department was allegedly concerned about was St. Paul's appeal on a case in which property owners said the city made extraordinary efforts, through strict code enforcement, to condemn their properties. The owners said reducing the amount of affordable housing for minorities violated the federal Fair Housing Act -- by what is known as "disparate impact."Perez appeared to think the Supreme Court overturning the case would have been a severe blow to civil rights enforcement, the report concluded.The "disparate impact" provision, which the report described as legally questionable, prohibits housing policies that end up discriminating against certain groups even if those policies are not blatantly discriminatory.Perez acknowledged Thursday that he thought that case "was a poor vehicle for the Supreme Court to address the broad issue."Asked why he intervened, he said "The Department of Justice is really a guardian of the Fair Housing Act."Alexander retorted: "Well, the Department of Justice is a guardian of taxpayers as well."But Perez noted that the value of a losing case r and more important" inside of Chechnya in the wake of bloody wars with the Russians. He said the official leadership is more secular and moderate, but there is an extremist element that sees the Russians as "infidels." He said the Al Qaeda links are tenuous, though Al Qaeda "sympathizes" with them.Regardless of the motivations of the suspects in the Boston bombing, which killed three and injured dozens, Phares said it is possible they still have broader "logistical support" within the United States. </p> </html> ------=Part.997.6842.1377031198--
