FINALLY FREE

The long awaited day has arrived.

His sentence was commuted by President Obama in January 2017.

He was released home then under home arrest.

Home arrest ends today.

He’s a totally free man … to walk the soil of his beloved island, Puerto Rico, without any restrictions!

Fellow Boricua, we celebrate with you.

Outgoing U.S. President Barack Obama commuted Lopez’ sentence in January 2017. He was sent home then but under the condition that he remain under house arrest.

Expired today, May 17, according to a list of commutations announced by the White House.

Puerto Rico’s independence leader and longest held political prisoner in the U.S. from Latin America will be free.

The United States government announced Tuesday the release of Oscar Lopez Rivera, who has been imprisoned in the U.S. for 36 years for his struggle to free Puerto Rico from U.S. colonial rule.

Oscar López Rivera is now a former US held Puerto Rican political prisoner of war.

SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY

This Man Is Serving 75 Years for “Seditious Conspiracy”

Is He a Danger to Society?

Members of Congress, Nobel laureates, and the Puerto Rican government say 33 years was enough for Oscar López Rivera.

Now it’s up to Obama.

López Rivera himself seems guardedly optimistic. Every Saturday, Puerto Rico’s main newspaper, El Nuevo Dia, publishes letters from López Rivera to his granddaughter. Last November, he wrote:

The future for me is something unpredictable … Puerto Rico has changed. So has the Chicago of my adolescence.

Those nights when i stay awake thinking about my projects, I animate myself by telling myself that, at the end, I have survived 70+ years and I have walked beneath the shadow of death many times.

If a man has managed to survive this, how is he going to be afraid of the free air when it hits him in the face?

We ALL are ONE!!

I'm originally from Puerto Rico. I was born in Santurce and raised in Rio Piedras. I currently live in Florida - since 1999. I have a doctorate degree in Medicine; completed in 1976. My Internal Medicine specialty was completed in 1979. Worked for Puerto Rico's health system until 1985. At this time, I'm happily retired after working for the federal government for almost 28yrs. I also worked for the government of Puerto Rico from 1979 through 1985 .... for a total of almost 40 years as a physician. I want to offer any knowledge that I have to anyone "out there" who is interested. My views are liberal in almost every sense. My knowledge is "eclectic" - a bit of everything. Music and reading are my passion. Blogging has also become a very interesting endeavor. Metaphysical topics attract me. I'm interested in news - reporting human issues like injustice, discrimination and abuse - the "wrongly" affected. My intention is to bring this knowledge to an understandable level and to help anyone in need. I'm open to questions and will answer them to the best of my ability. Currently working on an enterprise whose main mission will be to bring peoples of all walks of life together. To be one .... since we ALL are ONE!! The future looks bright and promising!!!
