David Price, DN.C., is seeking to close the law’s loophole, but in a statement this week he blamed unidentified senators and Bush administration officials for blocking his efforts.众议员大卫报价， DN.C. ，正在寻求密切的法律的漏洞，但在一份声明中，他这个星期指责不明身份的参议员和布什政府官员阻挠他的努力。 Human rights advocates said they were outraged that even after a year, the government so far has failed to charge the bodyguards.人权倡导者说，他们感到愤怒，甚至一年后，政府至今未能收取保镖。 “A year later, we are still waiting for justice in this case,” said Larry Cox, executive director of Amnesty International USA. “一年后，我们仍在等待正义在这种情况下，说： ”拉里考克斯，执行董事大赦国际美国分部。 “Robust protections must be in place to guarantee that personnel are held accountable for indiscriminate shootings and killings of civilians.” “稳健的保护必须到位，以保证人员追究不分青红皂白地枪击事件和杀害平民。 ” —— - Matt Apuzzo reported from Cooke City, Mont.马特Apuzzo报告库克市，勃朗峰。 Have Your Say: Sources: Charges against Blackwater guards debated 你说：来源：收费员对黑水辩论 Please read our请仔细阅读我们的 posting guidelines before posting张贴在发布前的指导方针 . 。 Alternatively或者 you can discuss this report here你可以讨论这份报告在这里 . 。 Related News 相关新闻
