We must
understand that Puerto Rico is a colony of the United States Government (USG). Puerto
Ricans have no right that the USG has to respect, because the idea of having a
colony is to exploit it. https://www.facebook.com/Maxima940/videos/263204177654558/
The USG has exploited Puerto Rico for the past 120
years. That is why 5.4
million Boricuas live away from Boriken, while 3.4 million of us refuse to abandon
our national territory.
Unfortunately
due to USG propaganda, the majority of Boricuas believe that they live in a
democracy, because they vote every 4 years. They believe that these elected representatives
represent their interests. But, like everybody should know, they don’t, and
that is why Boricuas have to protest so much!
Protesting
against the Fiscal Control Board, the closing of schools, abolishing the
shipping laws, auditing the debt, beaches for the public, the slow Hurricane
Maria response, and the so many others are useless, because they are part of
the exploitation that empires do to their colonies.
We need to further understand that it is perfectly legal for the USG to have colonies. However, where
it is not legal to have colonies is under international law!
The United
Nations (UN) was founded in 1945 after the Second World War. The UN Charter
prohibits colonialism. Therefore, the USG has violated the UN Charter for the
past 73 years! Moreover, the USG has repeatedly ignored 37 UN resolutions
asking it to immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans.

If Puerto
Ricans were to have their sovereignty, we could create the kind of Puerto Rico
that we all want. That means that we would be able to eliminate those things
that we are all presently protesting about!
Boricuas
should be engaged in permanent resistance to force the USG to comply with the
desire of the international community, because those who exploit us by using
their laws that permit it, don’t believe in LIBERTY AND IN JUSTICE FOR ALL! https://www.facebook.com/groups/1697349163904877/
