Shin had been closing up the establishment, which sits on a stretch of Steve Reynolds Boulevard where many fellow KoreanAmerican proprietors do business.

When the suspect showed a handgun, Shin pulled out his own to defend himself and his

Mandy Brock, the 18-year-old girlfriend of the boy’s older brother, told the Daily Post that the boy was conscious as he was being driven to Gwinnett Medical Center.

Brock said the buyer apparently tried to rob the boy when the shooting happened.

“He was talking, praying,” Brock said, sitting in the shade of a tree a few hundred yards away from the shooting scene on Pendleton Place off LawrencevilleSuwanee Road. “He was thanking Jesus that he was alive and asking for him to help him through it.”

Church sign with message against gays vandalized

BY KEITH FARNER keith.farner@gwinnettdailypost.com

BUFORD — Pastor Bobby Wright has a message for the person or people who vandalized his church’s sign Monday morning: Come to church.

Wright spent part of Monday cleaning off the sign to his church, Back to the Bible Holiness Church in Buford, after black paint was smeared across it to cover up a message that read: “God created man and woman; Satan made gays & transgender Gen 5:2.”

The message has followed a theme on the marquee this spring. The previous two sign messages read, “Matt 19:5 Marriage is between man and woman Gen 2:24,” and “Same sex marriage is sin/filthy.”

Wright, who said the message had been See SIGN, Page 7A

Lawrenceville eyes road changes, but residents and visitors unsure

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Lawrenceville officials have big plans designed to slow down traffic on roads around the downtown square, but some residents and visitors to the square aren’t sold on the ideas being put forward.

The city is looking at working on several changes to the roads in its downtown network, with the goal of returning the area around the square to a calmer atmosphere rather than

a busy traffic hub. At least some of it is part of recommendations from a 2005 Livable Centers Initiative study.

The proposed changes include converting a couple of the city’s one-way streets into two-way throughways. “(This is) the beginning point of some road changes in Lawrenceville that include an LCI project which means, in short, Clayton Street and Perry Street are going to go back to being two-way (and) there’s going to be some changes to signalization that’s going to slow traffic

down inside Lawrenceville,” Councilman Tony Powell said at the City Council’s June 6 meeting.

“Ten years ago, we did a study among our citizens. They said the most important thing that can be done for our downtown is to create community again.”

The city council approved some contracts for various traffic projects in the downtown area at its June 6 meeting. In addition to the two-way conversion, there are plans to studying the possibility of eventually re-

routing state highways around the downtown area instead of through it.

Both projects will be done by Peachtree Corners-based design engineering firm, Kimley-Horn and Associates.

The city council approved a $37,840 change order on the LCI Two-Way Conversion earlier this month. That is on top of the $543,000 original contract amount, which means the city is now set to pay about $615,340 after the change order

Lawrenceville resident Ashlyn Boyd, 17, when it overcorrected and slid across the road and hit a tree, according to a Gwinnett County police report.

Boyd, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the vehicle. The police report said alcohol was not a factor but speed contributed to the crash.

The incident happened at about 10:30 p.m. near Arbor Hill Court and

Bennett Road. Gwinnett police spokeswoman Cpl. Michele Pihera said the road was reopened at 1:13 a.m.

Boyd’s sister, Autumn, said Ashlyn was ejected about 15 feet out of the vehicle and got up to pull a friend out of the car only to immediately pass out.

Late Tuesday morning, Autumn tweeted, “Ashlyn has just started respond-

ing with little squeezes of my fingers!! About to go for another MRI on her neck. God is good #PrayForAshlyn.”

One of the passengers is out of the hospital, Autumn said, but the other three were scheduled to have surgeries on an ear, toe and knee.

“They’re pretty heavily sedated and resting, still pretty unaware of what happened,” Autumn said.

Grogan named chief of police in Norcross

BY ERIKA WELLS

erika.wells @gwinnettdailypost.com

Norcross Police Department Capt. Bill Grogan has been named chief of police, the city announced in a news release Tuesday.

Grogan has served as the interim chief since February.

“It is an honor to serve the citizens of Norcross as the chief of police,” he said. “The Norcross Police Department is unparalleled in its quality of staff with both uniform and civilian personnel who are dedicated to the safety of the community. With a well-trained staff in place, I look forward to interacting with the community and being available to both citizens and local businesses.”

Grogan oversees operations, sets goals and objectives, and leads planning efforts for the police

department, according to the release.

City manager Rudolph Smith Bill started the Grogan search to fill the position in early June.

“The safety and wellbeing of our citizens is of upmost importance and with that in mind, Chief Grogan was a solid choice for our community,” Smith said.

Grogan, a Norcross native, is a U.S. Navy veteran. He earned a bachelor’s degree in business from Georgia State University, and briefly moved to Colorado, where he started his career in law enforcement.

He has since moved back to Norcross and has served in several capacities for the police department for 10 years.

Truck strikes, kills driver’s son

BY JOSHUA SHARPE

joshua.sharpe @gwinnettdailypost.com

A 29-year-old man died after his mother lost control of a pickup truck and hit him outside Snellville, police said Monday morning.

Rashad Watson and his 64-year-old mother, Rita, were moving into a house at 3275 Highpoint Court around 11:15 p.m. Sunday, Cpl. Michele Pihera of Gwinnett County police said. The son was standing by the home next door when the mother, who hasn’t been charged, lost control of a white 2006 Chevrolet Colorado for “reasons unknown.”

The truck rolled downhill to the house.

“Rashad was unable to remove himself from the path of the vehicle before it struck him,” Pihera said.

“After the vehicle struck Rashad, it continued forward and struck the (neighbors’) house.”

The neighbors were home, but they were on the

Political gun debate is logic-free Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., recently disclosed that a congressional investigation has found at least 72 employees of the Department of Homeland Security listed on the U.S. terrorist watch list.

In other news, President Obama used a memorial service for the victims of the Orlando massacre to advocate for more gun control laws.

Anyone else see a contradiction in these two items?

Interviewers frequently ask me why I don’t favor more gun control laws. My response: Name one law that deters someone intent on breaking the law. Murder Cal has been prohibited Thomas since the beginning of civilization, but people still murder. One might as well outlaw human nature.

Only those predisposed to obey laws will obey them. Florida prohibits openly carrying firearms and many places advertise “gunfree zones,” which can be an open invitation to anyone intent on mass murder. The Orlando shooter, Omar Mateen, reportedly visited Pulse nightclub several times before breaking its gun-free zone policy.

That night, he entered the club with an assault rifle and entered into a gun battle with the club’s security guard, an off-duty police officer. He then retreated to a bathroom, taking hostages. Had Mateen cased the place? Did he know the guard would be the only one standing in his way?

It would appear so.

Despite the president’s claim to the contrary, it is reasonable to believe that even a small number of armed patrons might have limited the number of fatalities. And had the shooter known he would encounter armed patrons, perhaps he might not have chosen that particular club as his target.

More gun laws are not the answer.

Britain has some of the toughest gun laws in the world, but that did not stop a deranged man from shooting and stabbing to death Labour MP Jo Cox. Omar Mateen was a radical Muslim who pledged his allegiance to ISIS. Why do so many of us find it hard to accept that Islamists want to kill us as part of a strategy to create a worldwide caliphate? And why is the president adopting their language by using the term ISIL, which stands for the “Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant,” a larger area of the Middle East that includes Lebanon, Jordan and Syria? The president uses their terminology, but refuses to say “Islamic terrorism,” while continuing to allow thousands of Syrian refugees into America when authorities say there are so many that they can’t conduct proper background checks.

The answer to the first question is political correctness. The owner of the gun store where Mateen purchased his rifle says he also asked about body armor. When Mateen left the store, someone contacted the FBI. The follow-up, however, proved insufficient.

James Kallstrom, a former FBI assistant director, recently spoke with Megyn Kelly on her Fox News show.

Kallstrom told Kelly that orders have come down from the White House that the bureau cannot investigate “anything to do with Muslims” and agents are “petrified” of losing their jobs if they do.

Islamists could not have a better friend in the White House had they put one of their own there.

The media and liberal activists have returned to their default positions, of course. New York Times columnist Charles Blow blames conservative Christians and their biblical doctrines on marriage, sexuality, even evolution for fomenting “hate” against LGBT people, a hate that, supposedly, propelled Mateen toward mass homicide.

Truth is often a casualty in politics, but in a presidential election year, it has become a mass casualty.

There’s nothing like petting a pup “Can I pet your dog?” It’s one of the best questions I get.

Whether it’s at the farmers market or the park, it always brings a smile to my face when a child makes that request.

Roxy is quite fond of it as well.

My pup likes the attention — who doesn’t like a nice neck rub or a pat on the back?

— and I like to see young children enjoying the interaction with a dog. Most are shy and a little apprehensive, but once they see that Roxy is friendly, they relax and enjoy the moment. There’s nothing cuter than a young child getting so excited for the opportunity, and it’s a nice diversion for me and the dog as well.

I know the drill, however.

Roxy’s mom makes sure of that. I have the children clear it with their parents before they can start to pet the dog, and we show them how to offer their

Todd Cline Editor hand to show the pup they are being friendly. The meeting usually ends with the children saying they would like a dog of their own, or telling stories about their own dogs.

My nice and nephew are similar in their exuberance about Roxy, which stems from them not having a dog. They like to walk her and play with her, and would like to have a Roxy of their own. But their dad is quick to point out they might not fully appreciate all the work that goes into having

a dog — especially when you live in Minnesota like they do.

So as Drew and Reese await the day when they finally wear down their parents, and get a dog to go with their cat Milo, organizations like the Georgia SPCA are doing their best to educate children on what it takes to be a dog owner. In fact, the GA SPCA hosted a camp last week in Suwanee that taught the young campers how to properly handle and care for their pets.

“The kids all love animals,” said Laura Wade, who is the coordinator for the GA SPCA, “but I think it’s important for them to know what goes into keeping a dog for a lifetime.”

To that end, the campers — ages 8 to 11 — spent time visiting the shelter dogs as well as learning about the importance of spaying and neutering, how microchipping works and the need for vaccinations. To teach

them responsibility, the children were given small, stuffed animals that they left overnight at the SPCA building. Each morning upon arrival, taking care of their stuffed pet was the first order of the day.

The kids also heard from several speakers during the week, including a professional dog trainer named Carl Cappolino, who shared tips on how best to handle a dog. That resonated with 12-year-old camper Myla Gift, who wanted pointers on how to take care of her family’s Shih Tzu, named Reno.

Said Myla: “The next time someone walks up to us and maybe wants to pet my dog, I could use some of these tips.”

Roxy couldn’t have said it any better.

Memories of a rough-and-tumble dog of the ’70s A thread on the questionand-answer website Quora discussed the stark differences between dog ownership in the 1970s compared with today.

That made me remember the time my family’s beloved dog, Jingles, ran away.

Jingles was part collie, a touch of Irish setter and goodness knows what else — and I had no idea how lucky my family was to have her.

Throughout much of American history, according to LiveScience.com, only the wealthy kept pets as companions.

Before the 1960s and ’70s, few people in cities could afford dogs, particularly during the Depression years.

But after World War II, as Americans became more affluent and moved to the suburbs, more families had the means to care for dogs.

By the early ’70s, the family dog was fairly common — though it was an era of the rough-and-tumble dog, like Lassie and Old Yeller, not the pampered pets that are commonplace today.

Jingles was loved unconditionally, but the only pampering she got was a rub on her belly — she loved

station wagon and drive around the neighborhood calling her name. He’d usually find her within 30 minutes — usually outside the convenience store soliciting treats from customers.

“You get home right now, girl!” he’d say, pointing his Tom finger. She’d sprint home Purcell ahead of him and greet him as he pulled in the driveway, that — or having her coat her body shaking, her tail combed with a wire brush. wagging.

the next hill.

Then I heard her barking.

I jumped out of bed and raced downstairs and out the front door. I met her in front of the Kernses’ house. I was crying as I held her in my arms, the two of us rolling around under the street lamp.

She was covered with mud and burrs. She smelled like a skunk. I didn’t care.

Soon, the rest of my family was awake and outside hugging her, overcome with incredible relief.

That happened in the summer of 1974, when dogs were free to roam and sometimes break our hearts, but always fill us with joy and happiness.

In any event, Jingles’ life reflects the stark differences between dog ownership in the middle-class ’70s and the incredibly pampered purebred dogs of today that often are owned by Americans with incredible affluence.

With our declining middle class, regrettably, there aren’t as many roughand-tumble mutt dogs like Jingles around anymore.

Tightness and burning in lower legs signal nerve involvement DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an active, healthy 67-year-old man. Several months ago, I started having a deep tightness and burning sensation in both lower legs.

Nothing I do relieves the pain, including ice, heat, massage and pain medication. It is continuous and worse at night.

I have been referred to specialists, and tests for neuropathy, blood clots and stress fractures have been negative. My circulation tests, MRI, bone scans and blood workups, including ones for diabetes, all have been negative.

It is worse when walking up and down stairs, but the pain prevents me from exercising, and I can’t get a good night’s sleep. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

— J.K.S. ANSWER: While it’s impossible for me to be at all sure, this sounds very much like a neuropathy, based on the burning quality of the pain and the fact that you haven’t arrived at a diagnosis despite extensive testing.

Unfortunately, just saying that I think this pain is a neuropathy isn’t a diagnosis either. “Neuropathy” just means that I think the pain is coming from a condition affecting the nerves to your legs, but there are many different diseases that can do so. Diabetes is the most common, which probably is why you had that test.

One condition that comes to mind is restless leg syndrome, which may surprise readers, since you haven’t mentioned anything about restless legs. However, restless leg syndrome (properly, Willis-Ekbom disease) is underdiagnosed. Some people are not aware of the leg movements, and symptoms almost always are worse at night. However, you didn’t tell me one key feature that is nearly universal: a desire to move the legs. If that were present, I would certainly pursue that diagnosis.

DEAR DR. ROACH: How does one regain a sense of balance? Even though I use a walker, I still fall often.

About two years ago I was hospitalized with piriformis syndrome, which, as I understand it, often causes lack of balance.

— W.T. ANSWER: The piriformis is a hip muscle. Piriformis syndrome is caused by the contracted piriformis muscle compressing the sciatic nerve. Physical therapy is the usual treatment, and a physical therapist can help you with exercises to both relieve the compression as well as build strength in the muscles of the lower leg and hip to keep you from falling.

Often, what seems like a poor sense of balance is due to weakness in the muscles we use to keep ourselves upright. For that reason, my first recommendation is that you do exercises to improve both strength and balance.

One of these is done while standing near something you can hold on to, like a kitchen countertop. While steadying yourself by holding the counter, lift up one leg and hold it. Then switch legs. If that’s too easy, don’t hold on to the countertop. If you can do that, try it with your eyes closed.

Doomsday cult sends relationship to end times Dear Amy: My boyfriend of two years was raised in a doomsday cult. Yep, the real deal. It wasn’t traumatic, exactly, but he grew up believing that the end of the world is nigh and when certain “signs” are presented, he and the other church members would flee to Jerusalem to wait out the “end times.”

My boyfriend left the church several years ago.

He sees this church as a fear-mongering, destructive environment. However, his parents and older brother are still a part of it. They are packed and ready to flee at any moment.

My boyfriend’s father, “James,” is very paranoid.

He and his wife are terrified for my boyfriend’s soul, so periodically this is what happens: 1. James starts to talk about all of these awful things: government conspiracies, the end of the world, how he heard on one of his many fearmongering podcasts that things are being put in vaccines to control us, etc.

2. My boyfriend makes it clear to him, both verbally and by limiting their time together, that these conversations are inappropriate and he will not tolerate them.

3. James persists.

4. Finally, we cut off all contact for as long as is necessary.

5. Eventually we start to see him and his wife again. However, after a

Ask Amy

Amy Dickinson while James starts the pattern (again), and there we go again.

Amy, I love my boyfriend dearly and want to marry him, but I am worried about the stress of dealing with his family.

It has distressed my boyfriend for years. James still wants to try to convert me. We are moving out of state for graduate school soon.

Are we handling this well? Do we need to set better boundaries? If there is anything I can do to not be plagued by this cycle of dysfunction for the rest of my life, I will do it.

— Worried soon-to-be daughter-in-law Dear Worried: You and your boyfriend seem to be doing a good job of trying to retrain his family to stop proselytizing when they are with you. Responding in a firm and consistent manner (and then keeping your distance) is exactly what you should do.

I quibble with one thing: I believe your guy did grow up in a traumatic environment. He escaped it, but the lessons taught to him as a young child

would have set him up for a lifetime of deep insecurity. Fortunately, he seems to be resilient.

You two should see a counselor together, to check your feelings and reactions to this extreme situation. It is vital to be on the same page. Cutting off contact might be his ultimate response, but dealing with the guilt and grief of that loss is something he should talk through with a professional — and/or a support group.

Dear Amy: I am part of a very large family (10 brothers and sisters).

I have some nieces who very seldom show up at family celebrations, such as showers, birthday parties, etc., but when it comes to their children’s parties, they expect everyone to show up by inviting people via Facebook or through word of mouth.

How can someone tell them how their absence to our parties is causing others not to show up at their parties without causing hard feelings?

— Frustrated Family Dear Frustrated: Issuing invitations on Facebook does not mean that these nieces expect everyone to show up at their kids’ parties.

Facebook invitations are a handy way for people to respond quickly and for the hosts to get a head count.

These family members are attempting to be inclusive.

If your feelings are hurt by their inattention to other family celebrations and life-events (completely justified, by the way), you should honestly convey this message: “I have noticed your inattention toward other family members. It is time for you to step up and behave as a full member of this big family. We know you can’t show up for everything, but sometimes — you have to give (and celebrate) in order to get (and be celebrated).”

Dear Amy: “Curious Guy” innocently asked why women don’t shave their forearms.

You followed up by asking why men don’t shave their underarms, as women do.

The reason we don’t shave is because no one taught us that this should be the norm. Thank God. I have to admit that I prefer it when women shave, but I also understand why they might not want to.

— Another Guy Dear Guy: Shaving is a gender norm, and I think it is wise to question it.

If you don’t give in until you get what you want, you will have no regrets. Don’t let uncertainty dictate your actions. Take hold of every opportunity in the upcoming year, and don’t let anger or disappointment slow you down.

Love and romance will be of enormous benefit.

CANCER (June 21July 22) — With a little shove, you’ll discover a new direction that brings out your best qualities and skills. You should be proud of your accomplishments, and be sure to celebrate with someone special.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — Your ability to bring people together and make deals happen will put you in a good position. An interesting encounter with a loved one will lead to a better relationship.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22) — Don’t wait for someone else to make the first move. Take advantage of an opportunity before it’s too late. Make plans for the future with confidence and enthusiasm.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — A competitive approach will show you mean business. You may come up against negativity, but if you let your intuition lead the way, you’ll be hard to beat.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 22) — Check out what everyone around you is doing and adapt their methods to fit your own needs. Your creative input will make others take notice. A romantic gesture will be well received.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Chase an adventure or look for something exciting to do.

Embrace change, and don’t worry if last-minute alterations are made.

Follow your heart and live your dreams.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Lead the way before someone else takes charge. A professional opportunity will entice you. Consider all the pros and cons before you make a move.

Negotiate on your own behalf.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 19) — Hard work, dedication and a diverse application of your skills will bring about positive changes to the way you earn your living. A responsible attitude will win support and unexpected favors.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Sincerity and a firm offer will be appreciated and accepted. If you take your time and make sure everything is perfect, you’ll be respected and admired. Love is on the rise.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) — Keep life simple, and count on your ability in order to get things done. Relying on others will lead to disappointment. A responsible attitude will help you avoid setbacks.

TAURUS (April 20May 20) — Take business seriously and leave no room for error. Financial gains look promising if you are thorough. A partnership will give you greater momentum to achieve the success you desire.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Stop dreaming and start doing. Take the initiative to get your plans off the ground.

Dealing with rules and regulations first will save you time and money later.

world&nation WORLD Cameron: EU referendum for Britain ‘close’ LONDON — Prime Minister David Cameron said Thursday’s referendum on Britain’s membership of the European Union was likely to be very close, but he also predicted a “remain dividend” in investments if Britons voted to stay in the 28-nation bloc.

With just two days to go until the referendum that will shape the future of Europe, opinion polls have indicated that British public opinion is so divided that the outcome is too close to call.

“It’s very close; nobody knows what’s going to happen,” he told The Financial Times newspaper in an interview published on Tuesday.

In the event of a “remain” vote, Cameron predicted an investment surge into Britain.

Iran arrests 10 in plot to bomb multiple targets BEIRUT — Iran has arrested 10 Sunni Muslim militants who were planning to bomb 50 targets across the country, Iranian intelligence minister Mahmoud Alavi said on Tuesday, according to the Fars News site.

Officials in predominantly Shi’ite Iran have said in recent weeks that Sunni militants from Islamic State have been trying to target the country.

Alavi said the arrests took place in the last week in Tehran and three other provinces in central Iran and along the border. He labeled the suspects “takfiri Wahhabi terrorists,” a derogatory reference to Sunni Muslim militants.

The minister told a news conference in Tehran that the group had planned to attack busy public locations with remotely detonated explosions, suicide attacks and car bombs, according to Fars News.

Obama blasts Senate on gun vote

By Doina Chiacu and Richard Cowan Reuters

WASHINGTON — The White House accused U.S. senators of a “shameful display of cowardice” on Tuesday and said they failed the American people by not advancing any gun control measures after the nation’s largest mass shooting in Orlando, Fla., last week.

“Gun violence requires more than moments of silence,” President Barack Obama said on Twitter. “It requires action. In failing that test, the Senate failed the American people.”

Earlier, White House spokesman Josh Earnest appeared on morning television news shows excoriating the U.S. Senate for rejecting on Monday four gun bills aimed at keeping firearms away from people with suspected ties to militants.

“What we saw last night on the floor of the United States Senate was a shameful display of cowardice,” Earnest said on MSNBC. After Monday’s votes, the Senate turned away from gun control, at least temporarily, to debate a different tactic for battling domestic attacks that could be inspired by Islamic State and other foreign militant groups.

Senators were aiming to vote by Wednesday on

Chenoweth joins NBC’s ‘Hairspray’

LOS ANGELES — Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth has joined the cast of NBC’s “Hairspray Live!” show, Variety has learned.

The Emmy and Tony Award winner will play Velma Von Tussle, the selfpromoting and manipulative producer of “The Corny Collins Show,” who will stop at nothing to make her daughter, Amber, the star that Velma never was. Her biggest foe is Tracy Turnblad, and she’ll do everything in her power to prevent the integration of the “Corny Collins Show” which Tracy wants so much.

From the war-torn city of Kobane in northern Syria, Rumi and his family have been living at Arbat for two years. Only his brother stayed behind, choosing to fight instead of fleeing.

“When we left we thought we’d be coming back,” said an exuberant Rumi, dressed in a smart white shirt.

Commissioners OK immigration detainment agreement curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Gwinnett County commissioners agreed to let Sheriff Butch Conway’s office renew its agreement to participate in a federal immigration detainment program, but some people are calling on the commission to reconsider the decision.

Since 2009, Sheriff Butch Conway’s Office has had an agreement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement where specially trained deputies can act as immigration agents under the supervision of ICE officials. Such agreements are allowed under Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Sheriff’s Office officials said they’ve had success with the program since the partnership began.

“It’s my responsibility to assist the federal government in identifying illegal aliens committing crimes in Gwinnett County,” Conway

Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office Chief Deputy Mike Boyd addresses county commissioners Tuesday about renewing an agreement with the federal government that allows the office to detain jail inmates for immigration officials. (Staff Photo: Curt Yeomans)

said in a statement.

The new agreement continues the Sheriff’s Office participation in the program through June 30, 2019. It stipulates that deputies who are trained to act as immigration enforcement agents are only allowed to carry out those duties that ICE officials tell them to perform.

The office has interviewed 38,088 inmates about immigration issues and placed detainers for ICE on 13,346 people since the program began, according

to statistics on the Sheriff’s Office website.

Of the detainees, 6,788 were detained with traffic violations, including driving under the influence, while 1,614 were detained with a driver’s license violation only. There were 29,210 charges under the program since 2009.

“Each year the program is audited by the Department of Homeland Security to make sure it’s in compliance with standards, and this past year the program was recog-

nized by the Department of Homeland Security as a program of excellence,” Chief Deputy Mike Boyd told commissioners. “The sheriff believes this is important to addressing crime.”

Whenever a person is arrested and brought to the county jail, their immigration status is checked and a detainer is placed on them for immigration officials if the person is deemed to be in the country illegally, according to the Sheriff’s Office website.

The office says on its website that it does not directly deport anyone but said people who are in the country illegally are turned over to ICE once their cases are finished in the local courts. Immigration officials can then begin deportation proceedings.

The people who spoke against the agreement said it does more harm to the county and law enforcement’s relationship with the community than it does to help it.

nett County, especially in the Latin American community,” Latin American Association Director of Policy and Advocacy David Schaefer said. “It may lead to under reporting of crimes for fear that those who contact the Sheriff’s Office may have a fear of being deported.”

Schaefer said it raises a number of issues ranging from under reported crimes to families, where the parents are in the country illegally while their children are U.S. citizens, being split up.

Citing Georgia statistics from a 2013 American Civil Liberties Union report, Schaefer said 11,421 U.S. citizens saw spouses who were undocumented residents taken into ICE custody through detainers between 2009 and 2013. He added 40,111 children who are U.S. citizens saw parents who are undocumented residents taken into custody during that time.

“We have to ask ourselves, ‘What’s good for our community?’” Schaefer said. “Is it better to work

with communities in terms of helping them build confidence to report crimes? And how much good does it do us to be taking parents out of families when we’ve got a situation where these families are already struggling to make a living when we’re effectively taking the wage earner out of the home?”

Lawrenceville resident Jo Ann Weiss said she has several of her students at Gwinnett Technical College who are the children of immigrants, including some who are undocumented.

She backed opponents of the agreement, saying it was the wrong decision for commissioners to make.

She called on them to reverse the vote to approve the agreement.

“I hear some of their stories and I’ve done some of my own research on (287(g)) and truly feel that it’s a flawed system,” she said after the commission meeting. “It’s a flawed program that is obsolete and it’s a waste of money for Gwinnett County. On top of other issues, it’s a waste of taxpayer money.”

His reaction was that he was laughing in anger.

“I would be totally surprised if it was someone from Buford,” he said.

Wright, who said he didn’t regret displaying the message, questioned what the vandal was mad about because he said gays and transgender people weren’t called a “nasty name.”

Wright encouraged the

vandal or vandals to come to church to discuss the issue instead of spray-painting an inanimate object. What Wright believes and is discussed in the church is not his opinion, he said, but what’s in the Bible and what “God gave me.”

“If you are transgendered or gay, your lifestyle is sinful, that’s a moral thing,” he said. “It’s a perversion against nature. … That’s

your lifestyle and you’re trying to force it. This part of society is not going to be forced on.”

Wright added that Christians need to stand up for what’s in the Bible instead of being politically correct. He said he’s spoken out against President Barack Obama’s views on marriage and the recent statement about gender identity in school restrooms.

state highways.

“The consultant understands the city’s desire to evaluate a series of alternatives for removal of the existing state routes (U.S. 29/SR 8 and SR 120) through the downtown area and redesignation of those routes to other existing roadways in the general area,” Kimley-Horn Project Manager Mike Rushing wrote in a May 6 letter to City Manager Chuck Warbington.

“The city desires more flexibility for pedestrian and traffic control along these routes to accommodate events, retail parking, redevelopment and other general traffic and pedestrian control needs within the downtown area. Redesignating the existing state routes around the downtown area would provide the city more flexibility for these activities.”

Powell warned residents to expect construction to be on the horizon, at least for the two-way conversion, and to be cautious in the downtown area.

“Just know that it’s coming and know that when we’re done, traffic will go slower through the downtown,” he said. “Hopefully state routes will be designated someplace else besides those downtown

streets and you’ll have your community back again.”

Residents and visitors on the square were split about the impact moving those state route designations away from the downtown area would have on traffic around the square.

“I do like that idea because sometimes people do go way too fast down here,” Ogden said.

Raglin had his doubts about whether the traffic would move to the new routes, however.

“If you have a map app on your phone giving you directions, it’s going to tell you to go the fastest route,” he said. “If you live here, you take that route. It’s all going to depend on what gets them where they want to go the fastest way possible.”

Fuqua had one request for city leaders that she felt might help slow down traffic in the area: Bike lanes.

“Instead of some of these other things they’re talking about, they should consider bike lanes,” she said. “People need options on how they get around. It’s quaint and a lot of people at the college probably ride bikes a lot. If you could somehow connect it to the college and downtown, then you could probably draw in a lot more customers down here.”

by Buford athlete Josh Blackwell and North Gwinnett defensive end/ linebacker Drew Jordan jumped on board on Saturday.

“I had been up there a couple of times and every time I went up there they made my family really feel like they’re like a part of their family,” Jordan said.

“I’m big on family and it really impacted me, knowing that my parents, my sister and my brother were really enjoying themselves there. They’re playing great football right now and they need pass-rushers so I may be able to play early and ultimately life after football — because football does end — it gives me the best opportunity to be successful in life.”

Jordan is a four-star prospect and chose Duke over Michigan State, Arkansas, Indiana, California and Georgia Tech. He’ll compete in Nike’s The Opening in July as one of the nation’s top prospects.

Taylor is a three-star offensive lineman who chose the Blue Devils over offers from Boston College, North Carolina and Vanderbilt among others.

Blackwell played both receiver and defensive back for the Wolves last season. On offense he had seven catches for 44 yards and a touchdown, while defensively he made 47 tackles with an interception. He also finished second in the Class AAAA state 100-meter dash this spring.

Penn State, Georgia State hold satellite camp at Collins Hill

By Paul Thomas

paul.thomas@ gwinnettdailypost.com

SUWANEE — Just outside the field house at Collins Hill High School, head football coach Kevin Reach has a couple of spots reserved for college recruiters.

On Tuesday afternoon they were all occupied — and then some.

Georgia State head

coach Trent Miles and his staff hosted a satellite camp with Penn State head coach James Franklin and his staff at the school with 110 area high school football players.

Assistant coaches from Syracuse, Samford and Presbyterian College were also on hand. Franklins said that he wasn’t allowed to specifically address Tuesday’s camp, but that Gwinnett and the

greater Atlanta area are big recruiting hot spots for him and his staff.

Last season Penn State signed two players they evaluated at a camp with Georgia State in Westminster punter Blake Gillikin and South Forsyth kicker Alex Barbir.

“We’ve been fortunate,” he said. “We got two kids out of here last year that we feel great about. In my past, recruiting in Atlanta

and the area has been really good to us. I’ve got a lot of relationships.

Obviously football is very important here, a lot of really good players. So to me if we can come in and get two, three, four guys a year — one guy a year — it’s worth it. So we’re going to continue to develop these relationships and the pipeline.”

Reach was obviously thrilled to be able to host

the Nittany Lions and Panthers coaching staffs.

“It’s good to be at home and for us to be on our field, but with Coach Franklin and Coach Miles are just class acts and guys I’d love for our kids to be around and kind of learn from them,” Reach said. “I know it’s a satellite camp, but at the same time they’re getting the opportunity to See MILES, Page 4B

Cleveland Cavaliers fans celebrate as the team arrives home to a welcome party Monday in Cleveland, Ohio. (Photo: Aaron Josefczyk/Reuters)

Conquering heroes

Cleveland fans swarm returning champions

The Sports Xchange

The NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers are back home, sparking a party atmosphere after bringing the first championship to the city in over half a century.

The Cavs made history Sunday night, beating the Golden State Warriors 9389 in Game 7 after being down 3-1 in the series.

More than 20,000 fans greeted the team at the IX Center next to the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport on Monday and when unanimous Finals MVP LeBron James emerged from the plane with the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy in hand, the crowd went crazy.

James, wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the words “Ultimate Warrior,” hoisted up the trophy with both hands.

“Cleveland!” James yelled into the microphone as confetti flew across the parking lot.

The fans screamed as James, Kevin Love, a shirtless J.R. Smith and Kyrie Irving made their way off the plane with Queen’s “We are the Champions” blaring over the speakers.

James said after the game that he couldn’t wait to get back to Cleveland after his 27-point, 11-rebound, 11-assist, three-block performance at Oracle Arena in Oakland, Calif.

“I’m coming home with what I said I was going to

do,” James said Sunday night at the postgame press conference, flanked by his three children on Father’s Day. “I can’t wait to get off that plane, hold that trophy up and see all our fans at the terminal.”

The celebration will continue with the team’s parade in downtown Cleveland today.

The Cavs captured the first major sports title in Cleveland since Dec. 27, 1964, when Jim Brown led the Browns over the Baltimore Colts 27-0 in the NFL championship game.

“The drought is over,” Brown said. “I’m so proud of LeBron. It was great to see that kind of courage, dedication and teamwork.

And to be led by LeBron James to a historic cham-

pionship for a great city of fans who have stayed loyal for all these years is really wonderful.”

The 80-year-old Brown said he was always confident Cleveland would see another title in his lifetime.

“I knew we’d see it again because for it not to happen fans would have to stop going to games,” Brown said. “And these fans are not going to give up. If these fans don’t give up, how can the players give up?

“These fans will remind you how long it’s been since we won it last, and LeBron rode that wave and went to another level. The level that he went to was unprecedented. He gave everything he had to make this happen.”

Parkview relay, Camp excel at NBNO From staff reports GREENSBORO, N.C. — A relay team made up of four Parkview High School runners and Archer thrower Ryan Camp each turned in nationally significant performances at the 2016 New Balance Nationals Outdoor track and field meet last weekend at North Carolina A&T University.

The Parkview quartet of Anthony Shuford, Demarius Smith, Amir Harris and Justin Long, running as members of the Panther Express Club, finished as runner-up in the 800-meter sprint medley relay.

While the team’s time of 1:30.95 was 0.15 of a second behind champion Wethersfield Track Club of Connecticut, which ran in a separate heat, it did

achieve several milestones.

It not only set a new Gwinnett County record in the event, it also was the sixth-fastest time by a high school-age team in Georgia history and was the state’s fastest time in the event this season, as well as the second-fastest this season nationally.

Meanwhile, Camp also had a big weekend in the discus while representing

OAKMONT, Pa. — While soaking up perhaps the greatest pressure he has ever experienced, Dustin Johnson delivered a perfect riposte to criticism of his major credentials with a drama-laden U.S. Open victory on Sunday.

The American had to overcome a brutal Oakmont course, the specter of a one-stroke penalty hanging over his head and suggestions by some that he did not have the strength of character or clutch putting required to win a grand slam crown.

In every respect, the long-hitting Johnson prevailed. The 31-year-old came from four behind heading into the final round and kept errors to a minimum as he survived the toughest test in golf to triumph by three shots.

Ultimately penalized for a rules infraction on the fifth green after his round ended, Johnson displayed nerves of steel over the closing stretch, making several clutch putts on a day when the entire field struggled on lightning-fast greens.

It was a consummate performance in the pressure-cooker situation of a major championship final round with the title on the line and, in Johnson’s case, previous emotional baggage and uncertainty over that rule decision heightened the challenge.

He had previously recorded 11 top-10s in the majors without winning, including two-runner-up spots, and he agonizingly missed a three-foot putt at the final hole to hand last

year’s U.S. Open at Chambers Bay to Jordan Spieth.

That has certainly been Johnson’s most heartbreaking loss, given that he had reached the par-five 18th at Chambers Bay in two and lined up a 12-foot eagle putt for the title, but he had been badly scarred by other near-misses in grand slam events.

At the 2010 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, the American power hitter squandered a three-shot lead in the final round as he closed with an 82.

That same year in the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits, Johnson was hit with a two-stroke penalty for grounding his club in a bunker on the 18th hole and missed out on a playoff for the trophy with Martin Kaymer and Bubba Watson.

Doubts over his ability to close out a major escalated, and many questioned

his putting under pressure.

Prior to Sunday’s long-awaited victory at Oakmont, Johnson was a nine-time winner on the PGA Tour blessed with extraordinary talent, an athletic swing and prodigious length off the tee, but he was also a perennial major letdown.

With the loose-limbed swagger of a gunslinger as he strides confidently down the fairways, Johnson has always made the game look remarkably easy but, until last week, he had been unable to translate that into success at golf’s highest level.

All that changed for Johnson at Oakmont Country Club on a layout widely regarded as the toughest in golf where he triumphed in the major championship viewed as the most exacting.

“Obviously winning any tournament, there’s a lot

of satisfaction, but to get it done in a major, especially when I’ve been so close so many times, it’s just an unbelievable feeling,” said Johnson. “It’s hard to even describe.

“For me to finally get it done in a major, it’s a huge monkey off my back.

I’ve worked so hard to get here. I’ve put myself in this position many times, and to get it done is definitely sweet.”

Johnson was the only player in the field to go bogey-free in the opening round, firing a three-under 67, and by the end of the tournament, he led the charts in average driving distance (316.75 yards) and greens in regulation (hitting 55 of 72).

“This is one of the best weeks I ever drove the ball for sure,” said Johnson, who climbed to third in the world rankings on Monday.

chance he’s going to have this year and we’re excited about it as well.”

Kentucky is also a good fit for Williams, Wofford said.

Not just from a scheme standpoint, but also the fact that by committing so early, Williams will have a chance to help Stoops and the other UK coaches complete their 2018 signing class with guys who will help them compete in the SEC. “I knew he had wanted to kind of get things done this summer and I knew that he had been up to Kentucky a couple times already,” Wofford said.

“He had just taken an unofficial visit and then he went back up and camped up there as well and did really well at camp when he was up there. Then during their visit offensive coordinator (Eddie Gran) and quarterback coach (Darin

Hinshaw) came down, so I know they had been on him pretty well, pretty hard. Some of the other schools that offered him had a couple quarterbacks that they had signed the year before. It just kind of fit because he actually has a chance to go in early, not necessarily as a freshman straight out of high school, but he’ll have a chance to get on the field quicker there than he will at some of the other schools that have offered him.

“And, at the same time he has a chance to kind of be a pied piper and bring guys with him and be a face of a team and all that kind of stuff. It was a lot things that kind of fitted for Kentucky, and then it’s also an SEC school playing against the best of the best, but it’s one that they’re spread and he can kind of do a little bit of both as far as that goes. It just fit.”

Peterson powers Braves by Miami

By Walter Villa The Sports Xchange

MIAMI — Jace Peterson tied the score with a two-run homer in the eighth and knocked in the winning run with a single in the 10th as the Atlanta Braves continued their mastery of the Miami Marlins with a 3-2 win on Tuesday night at Marlins Park.

The Braves (24-46), who have the worst record in the National League, took six of seven games from the Marlins (37-34) this season.

In addition, the Braves are 29-12 at Marlins Park since it opened in 2012.

Overall this year, the Braves have a season-high six-game win streak.

Atlanta opened the top of the 10th with a walk by Chase d’Arnaud, who was sacrificed to second by Emilio Bonifacio’s bunt.

With two outs, Marlins manager Don Mattingly removed right-handed reliever Kyle Barraclough (3-2) and brought in lefty Mike Dunn.

But Peterson, who bats left, foiled the strategy by hitting an opposite-field single.

Arodys Vizcaino got himself in a two-on, no-out jam in the bottom of the 10th but worked out of it for his eighth save of the season. Vizcaino struck out Christian Yelich, Giancarlo Stanton and Chris Johnson consecutively to escape.

The early part of the game was dominated by Marlins right-hander Jose Fernandez, who pitched seven scoreless innings, allowing just one hit on 99 pitches. He struck out seven, including the last two hitters he faced.

But Fernandez had to settle for a no-decision when Peterson jumped on the first pitch he saw from

reliever David Phelps — a high fastball — pulling it to right for a two-run homer. That tied the score 2-2 with one out in the eighth.

It was Peterson’s first homer of the season and the seventh of his career.

Fernandez, who is 23-1 with a 1.48 ERA in 34 career starts at Marlins Park, allowed two walks, one hit batter and a first-inning infield single by Nick Markakis. Fernandez retired 14 consecutive batters from the second through the sixth inning.

He dominated a Braves starting lineup that was stacked with seven lefthanded batters out of eight position players.

Overall this season, Fernandez is 9-3 with a 2.36

ERA and 125 strikeouts. In franchise history, only A.J. Burnett with 129 has had more pre-All-Star Break strikeouts than Fernandez.

Miami made it 1-0 in the second inning. Dietrich advanced on a groundout and scored when Fernandez pulled a 0-2 pitch for a hard ground single to left.

The Marlins added a run in the fourth on a two-out, opposite-field single by Adeiny Hechavarria. That scored Justin Bour, who also went the opposite way, hitting a leadoff double.

Notes: Atlanta placed rookie OF Mallex Smith (fractured left thumb) on the disabled list after he was hit by a pitch on Sunday by New York Mets LHP Antonio Bastardo.

Smith is expected to miss eight-to-10 weeks. … Atlanta selected the contract of LF Emilio Bonifacio, who started on Tuesday.

Bonifacio hit .270 with 30 runs scored in 57 games this season at Triple-A Gwinnett. … Braves 1B Freddie Freeman was named the NL Player of the Week after batting .548 with three homers, eight RBIs and a 1.653 OPS. …

The eight homers hit by both teams on Monday set a record at Marlins Park. … From May 7 to June 12, Marlins RF Giancarlo Stanton endured the worst slump of his career, batting .112 with two homers and five RBIs. Since then and entering Tuesday, Stanton hit .450 with one homer and three RBIs.

BOSTON — Chris Sale mowed down baseball’s most lethal lineup and in return became the majors’ first 12-game winner as the Chicago White Sox quieted the Boston Red Sox 3-1 on Tuesday night at Fenway Park.

Sale (12-2) struck out nine, tying a season high, and allowed one run on four hits and a walk over seven innings as Chicago (35-36) won its fifth game in six tries in Boston.

Todd Frazier hit his 20th home run of the season, Tim Anderson slugged his first career homer and Melky Cabrera drove in a run for the White Sox. Mookie Betts drove in the lone run for Boston (39-31), which has dropped six of nine.

Clay Buchholz’s return to the Red Sox’s rotation was listless as he served up a pair of homers and gave up three runs total on four hits and a walk with five strikeouts in five innings.

Indians 6, Rays 0 CLEVELAND — Corey Kluber pitched a three-hit, completegame shutout and Jose Ramirez and Juan Uribe homered to lead streaking Cleveland.

Kluber (7-7) struck out nine and walked two in pitching his third career shutout. The only hits allowed by Kluber were singles by Corey Dickerson in the second inning and by Brad Miller and Evan Longoria in the ninth.

The victory extends the AL Central-leading Indians’ winning streak to five in a row. They have also won 10 straight home games. Tampa Bay, last in the AL East, has lost six in a row.

Mets 2, Royals 1 NEW YORK — Five New York pitchers combined for 8 2/3 innings of one-run relief after

right-hander Bartolo Colon departed with a thumb injury, and Asdrubal Cabrera and Yoenis Cespedes each hit solo homers as the Mets edged Kansas City in a rematch of the 2015 World Series at Citi Field.

The piecemeal win stopped a three-game losing streak for New York (37-32). The Royals (38-32) had a three-game winning streak snapped.

Hansel Robles, who entered after Colon was hit on the right thumb by a line drive off the bat of Kansas City leadoff batter Whit Merrifield, earned the win after allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out six over a careerhigh 3 2/3 innings.

X-rays on Colon’s thumb were negative. The 43-yearold, who had never recorded fewer than two outs in his first 481 big league starts dating back to 1997, is day-to-day.

Tigers 4, Mariners 2 DETROIT — Mike Aviles’ nubbed single 40 feet down the first base line with one out and the bases loaded in the eighth inning scored pinch-runner Andrew Romine with the tie-breaking run to lead Detroit over Seattle.

Bruce Rondon (1-0) pitched a scoreless eighth to earn the win in his second appearance since being recalled from the minors. Francisco Rodriguez gave up a pair of two-out singles before finishing his 20th save of the season.

Justin Verlander went the first seven innings for the Tigers, striking out five and allowing six hits. Verlander stranded a Mariners runner at third with one out in the third, getting two straight strikeouts after a double plus a sacrifice. He also got three outs in a row following Cano’s leadoff double in the fourth.

Diamondbacks 4, Blue Jays 2 TORONTO — Yasmany Tomas and Peter O’Brien hit home runs, Patrick Corbin pitched into the seventh inning and Arizona defeated Toronto.

Corbin (4-6) allowed eight hits, three walks and two runs in 6 1/3 innings. The left-hander struck out three as the Diamondbacks (34-39) extended their winning streak to five games as the Blue Jays (39-34) lost their third in a row.
