Citizens lose their citizenship for treason under normal conditions. Oscar Lopez Rivera, however, never lost his United States’ (US) citizenship after almost 36 years in prison for being convicted of seditious conspiracy to overthrow the United States Government (USG) in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico’s political relationship with the USG is not a normal one. In fact, it is illegal! Why aren’t more people talking about it?
Puerto Rico has
been a US colony for the past 120 years. The USG forced its citizenship on
Puerto Ricans in 1917. When Puerto Ricans have tried to renounce their US
citizenship, the USG has tenaciously disallowed them to.
The idea
behind the forced citizenship is to try to divert Puerto Ricans’ natural
loyalty to Puerto Rico towards the US. Do you know that more soldiers are
recruited in Puerto Rico to the US military than in any of the 50 states of the
Union? Does that mean that Puerto Ricans are more patriotic to the US than the first
class citizens residing in the 50 states? Click on this link to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUZxaT9vTB8&t=14s
The fact of
the matter is that since 1898, the USG has exploited Puerto Rico and Puerto
Ricans to the utmost! So much so, that more Puerto Ricans today live outside of
their national territory. 5.4 million Puerto Ricans are in exile, while 3.4
million of us refuse to abandon our homeland.
Join the
permanent resistance to force the USG to comply with the United Nations’ (UN)
Charter that prohibits colonialism, and the 37 UN resolutions asking it to
immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. Click on

Get
involved, because those who have stuck us with their own citizenship to enslave
us forever don’t believe in LIBERTY AND IN JUSTICE FOR ALL! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1697349163904877/
