Hawaii officials urge families of people missing after deadly fires to give DNA samples
"LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) — Authorities in Hawaii pleaded with relatives of those missing after the deadliest U.S. wildfire in more than a century to come forward and give DNA samples, saying the low number provided so far threatens to hinder efforts to identify any remains discovered in the ashes."
---> "Pleaded" - "Urged"
Why not just use "asked for" DNA samples... Why pleading and urging??

Humblegunner used to think me a fool for objecting to his abuse.
“It’s just words on a screen” he would often say.
I suppose that is relative to one’s point of view.
I tend to view this place as a prayerful battle for hearts and minds where people can search for Truth, often loudly, but together.
By the way, ever given thought to how many words a Meme can be worth?

At least 400 enraged protesters rallied Monday outside a shuttered Catholic school-turned-migrant shelter on Staten Island — where they unveiled an enormous blue tarp with white paint that said “NO F%*KIN WAY!”
Neighbors of the 300-bed makeshift shelter at the former St. John Villa Academy in the borough's Arrochar section seethed over what they described as the unceremonious dumping of unvetted migrants in their midst.
“It's a clusterf–k,” a resident who lives a block from the school told The Post. “The city really screwed it up. Before we even talk about whether I want migrants here or not, the way it was handled was terrible.
“It was done in a cloud of secrecy.”
At least one cop car and a uniformed officer was seen on-duty during the Monday evening rally.
“The message is that here in Staten Island, we love immigrants,” insisted John Tobacco, one of the rally organizers, told The Post. “We're the most Italian-American congressional district in the country, and all our ancestors came here legally. We love anyone who comes here legally.
“To me, it's an American message — this is unsustainable,” he said of the crush of asylum seekers to the Big Apple.

Migrants arrive at St. Villa Academy migrant shelter. Two school buses with migrants arrived at the former St. John Villa Academy Catholic school on Staten Island last week, raising fear among neighbors that the unvetted migrants could pose a safety concern in the community.

He said the abandoned school sits between two active elementary schools — including an all-girls campus.
Local GOP state Assemblyman Michael Tannousis told The Post the area was “blindsided” by the new shelter, leading to stronger opposition.
“I found out about this location when it was already out in the newspaper,” he said, adding the city previously denied to him they were going to house migrants there.

Monday's demonstration grew so fiery at one point that a Post reporter was harassed to leave.
More than 1,000 demonstrators had protested outside the makeshift Staten Island shelter last week, with cops saying they anticipated twice as many to converge on the former school Monday evening. Police beefed up their presence Sunday after erecting barricades at the scene.
Tobacco said at least nine migrants are already at the shelter, while other reports suggest nearly two dozen are already there — with fears that more are coming.
Dear President Biden and Congressional Leaders:
The New York business community is deeply concerned about the humanitarian crisis that has resulted from the continued flow of asylum-seekers into our country.
The situation is overwhelming the resources not only of the border region but of city and state governments across the nation. New York City, alone, has received more than 100,000 asylum seekers whose status is uncertain and who lack authorization to work. Increasingly, these are families with young children.
We write to support the request made by New York Governor Hochul for federal funding for educational, housing, security, and health care services to offset the costs that local and state governments are incurring with limited federal aid.
In addition, there is a compelling need for expedited processing of asylum applications and work permits for those who meet federal eligibility standards. Immigration policies and control of our country's border are clearly a federal responsibility; state and local governments have no standing in this matter.
There are labor shortages in many U.S. industries, where employers are prepared to offer training and jobs to individuals who are authorized to work in the United States. The business community is also providing in-kind assistance and philanthropic support to organizations that are addressing the immediate needs of this largely destitute population.
Bipartisan action by Congress and the Administration is ultimately the way to resolve immigration issues, but that will take time.
In the interim, we urge you to take immediate action to better control the border and the process of asylum and provide relief to the cities and states that are bearing the burdens posed by the influx of asylum seekers.

“I think they should come the same way my ancestors came through — Ellis Island,” a resident said. “Make them come [into the US] the right way. “Everybody has to get vaccinated, and why don't they?” she said. “We don't even know the first thing about them.
You're letting everybody into the country.” The St. John Villa shelter has become the newest focal point for the migrant crisis that has engulfed the Big Apple since the spring of last year. More than 104,000 migrants from the US border have been shipped to the five boroughs, and nearly 56,000 are now being housed by the city.

Protesters claim they're not anti-immigrant but concerned about safety.
“It's a f–k you to Staten Island,” said neighborhood resident Tony Banks, who also attended a rally in Manhattan on Sunday.
“This is possibly the worst site picked in New York City,” Banks said. “Why would they pick this particular site other than just trying to say to the [Staten Island] politicians involved, ‘F–k you. This is what we can and will do.’”
On Sunday, more than 100 demonstrators also rallied outside Manhattan's Gracie Mansion to protest Mayor Eric Adams’ handling of the crisis, with five people — including Guardian Angels founder and former mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa — arrested at the scene.

The rally turned rowdy when about two dozen counter-protesters clashed with demonstrators.
Sliwa is expected to be on hand at the Staten Island rally as well.
Meanwhile, City Hall remained silent Monday, failing to respond to Post inquiries about the controversial Staten Island shelter.
One protester's sign made clear what they thought of Mayor Adams.
Local elected officials even tried to block the use of St. John Villa as a shelter with a last-minute letter to the city Office of Emergency Management on Friday urging, at minimum, an 11 p.m. curfew for migrants.
