Citizen's detentions

Hello my friends! Today we have a new blog for you, a little more social and  about a topic that everyday is more common. I am talking about the citizen's detentions for the robbers, specially showed and riciculised in front  of the people that is walking on the streets of Santiago. 
I reed an  article from "The Santiago times" called  "Robber tied up by vigilante citizens" by Laurie Blair and Dan Lewis. (I will give you the link in the end of this blog) and I thinked that the news was very basic. Just showed some testimonials from the witness in that place and reported the story  when a robber was captured by some citizens  and  was exposed naked in front of the people. It wasn't very profound.
Something that makes me think, is the fact about  the people opinions and their emotions. Make someting like that, is very powerfull. For just one momet, the people have the power to make someting that the oficial justice doesn't do .Well that kind of phenomenons could be explicated for reasons psichologicals or sociologicals. The deep anger of the people could be  consecuense of a lot of a lot of social factor like the bad justice in the country. The corruption that is doens't punished and the fact of the "revolving door" for bad laws.  The people can feel that their right will be damaged.
But... what we cand do?  What kind of justice we have to give if our own chilean justice is terrible? Maybe this situation  is the reflection od something more deep and important.

That's all.

Copa América

Hello everyone, today I have to talk abot the "Copa América" and I know that I dont gonna say nothing original. Every chilean pearson have in their minds the victory  of our soccer team and  all the tv shows, tv news and news paper are talking about that every day.
Fisrt... was it important? Maybe, maybe not. I think that in one sense is important because a triumph gives faith for the nex generation of  chilean players and the victory makes feel people happy, specially to  the football maniacs , the people that doesn't wanted to die without see the victory of Chile (like the some sport reporters) and the people that just wanted to be happy after the bad moments in Chile.
In another sense, (most negative) I think that The Copa America was a good chance to our goverment  to forget and dont listen the problem in the country. Somes evideces of that, were the repetitives protests of  the teachers and students, the politc scandals, that will not showed in Tv news because all the news were about footbal. In my opinion, that was very ridiculous  and a  madness.

Second, I dont want to be so serius, (But I was really furious for the football in tv all day), y enjoy the Copa América and the triumph of Chile. Y was hoarse for shout so much in the moments tha Chile played.

Third and finally.....Well I dont have more to say. I dont want to improvise.

That's all folks!
