Saturday morning I think it was a symbol of citizen mobilization in the streets of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, if not historical, but very enlightening.
not easy, never has been, that thousands of people to leave their homes, leaving their few leisure hours to protest something that seems unfair. Unfortunately our people marked by a brutal colonialism, abductor of wills, has always been quite afraid to publicly demonstrate their views on almost anything and when it has reactions from the savage and disproportionate often (I think that the lack of custom.)
In the midst of the march could chat with a fellow farmer board telling me how amazing it seemed that for some media talk that those who were demonstrating were the same, there were people who never missed an event yet to the good that had seemed supportive people who care about others. You are absolutely right this fellow, these people are certainly a sign that we are gradually maturing as a society that increasingly spend less powerful things that we can get to serve the community with an altruistic but then crucify us.
traditional parties and the Francoist propaganda called "forces" do not understand that more people protest and demand, social activists struggling to appear in a thousand different fights without neglecting almost any front. Today on a radio talk one of the participants said that he felt something "alien to our way of being." I think some people still have been in that time when the lessee took off his hat even phoned the owner of the land.
I'm not going to get into the dance of typical figures, I have clear that a human tide through the streets only to seek justice even less, to be heard. A distinguishing feature of this movement is that it has been dragged out of their homes to many people who has ever felt moved by anything similar. Talking a bit with some of them will confess between embarrassed and enraged that they voted in past elections to DC or PP.
A friend who was also from Santa Cruz that morning I was thinking that maybe all the haste and irregularity of PGO are part of a strategy Zerolo knowing your little political future, a sort of farewell poisoned chalice for his successor (probably one of those critical of the mayor). On the other hand has been a good way to ensure the eternal love of powerful businessmen who come when you can meet with their "hot wings." The truth is an idea that does not seem entirely far-fetched considering the mayor's own statements this weekend that compliment to Angel Llanos. I think Zerolo increasingly reminds me of an asteroid in half the space that draws a capricious course depending on the gravitational forces are on your way, only this time it collided head against his former electorate. Undoubtedly
is nervousness and fear that distill the various statements by members of political power City and its allies. They know they have taken a blow to the middle class so far has given them confidence, they also feel the breath of justice in their necks for a number of pending cases to complete and have a mayor who has become an increasingly socially and legally challenged we do not know which way the 2011 elections will face or where. I hope that this year Zerolo, Llanos, Rivero, Gonzalez, Cuende, Guimerá ... to become a thing of the past so that citizens finally come to really change the City, this Saturday we had a few thousands of candidat @ s for it all around us.
