DOWN WITH THE PRISON SYSTEM! MAPUCHE & ANARCHIST PRISONERS:
ON TO THE STREETS!!
“If you think you are free, it is because you have not flown high enough to collide into the fence.”

“See how few of us we are, and yet they invent grand media spectacles, but cannot erase what we have to say.
Look at how few of us we are, and yet their insults become desperate against us, their arguments become minor and are terrified by the smallest gestures while having all the power in their hands.
See how few of us we are and you shall see… You shall see that one day there will be millions just like us…
Only then will you have had a reason to have feared us so.”(Domingo Murua. Chuma…)
