In light of the new developments occurring at the University of Puerto Rico as reported by Fox News Latino, Illinois Rep. Luis V. Gutiérrez (D) spoke from the floor of the House of Representatives to focus more attention on Puerto Rico’s political status. Here is the video of Rep. Gutiérrez’s remarks:
WOW!!! If you know Spanish please pronounced this word phonetically CONLLOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Love the passion that comes from his belief in liberty and what a true democracy is all about. He calls it like it is , Puerto Rico is a COLONY of the USA and it is time to take care of resolving this.
Always in peace..papijulio
We agree.
Julio, thanks for posting this important story that once again is back page news in the media. Ironic that FOX , whose political supporters often vilify Latinos, is the source of this story. Where is MSNBC and CNN?
I don’t know where MSNBC and CNN are. FNL is really taking the lead here.
I wonder, if when Rep Gutierrez and his daughter studied in the UPI, there were no problems. Did he said he study there?
As I remember there have been the same problems in the PuertoRican University.
I fact, as I was informed the person who is behind all this problem is an adult, that for years, has been causing it, he is no more an student in the UPI. They called themselve….Fupistas…most of them whant the Independance for Puerto Rico.
The students have been following him, and of course they are the sons of the previous causing problems students. The Police act the way they do, because they have to. You have to be in Puerto Rico, to see what the students do. Also, recently they destroy classrooms.
In Puerto Rico is easy to enter the University, why? Because there are a lot of Schoolarships and Grants!!! Who is giving the students the opportunity to study? Guess? The good USA.
Thank you for the comments. I have three cousins in the system right now and my dad graduated from UPi Mayagüez in 1969 and my abuela graduated from UPi Río Piedras in 1932! Imagine that.
So are you denying that the police did not beat students?
Also, last time I checked as Americans the students and Rep. Gutiérrez have the right to say anything they want within the law. Also it is surprising to see that Gov. Fortuño has not commented about this or appeared with Jorge Ramos on AlPunto.
please give God Nd peace a chance. vaya!
