Courts won’t solve Boricuas’ problem!

Many Boricuas believe that the courts and the United Nations (UN) are the places to solve our problem of being a United States (US) colony for the past 122 years.

But, how did our problem begin?
The US government (USG) did not go to court, or to the UN to make Boriken its colony. It simply invaded her militarily on July 25, 1898. In essence, the USG went to the streets! And, that is the only way that Boriken will decolonize herself. Why are we sure of that?
The USG has never complied with the UN’s Charter of 1945 that prohibits colonialism. Do you know that colonialism is a crime against humanity? Some Nazis were hung after World War II because of that!
The USG has ignored 39 UN resolutions asking it to immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. Click on the following link to watch that video: http://webtv.un.org/watch/5th-meeting-committee-of-24-special-committee-on-decolonization/6051725003001/
The fact of the matter is that Boriken has been a gold mine for the USG for over a century, and the USG is determined to keep her as its colony today, tomorrow and forever. The only thing that will stop that determination, would be the determination of almost 9 million Boricuas worldwide engaged in permanent resistance to liberate our homeland!
Boricuas must get out of the voting booths and the courtrooms, and get out in the streets! Boriken is our homeland, and it is our inalienable right to fight for her. If you can’t see that, you must then work first on decolonizing your mind. And if you succeed, then you could join our struggle!
Decolonized minds are required to join our struggle to decolonize Boriken.
