At the moment I\u2019m \u201cok\u201d given the situation, I am concerned about my health and am also concerned about several things which I\u2019ll expand upon in a few points.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>First the fact of writing now and not later.<\/p>\n<p>Well, this is easy because physically I have the ability to do so and because in the future when they charge or sentence me the control will be greater and communication will be more difficult.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT MY HEALTH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, I have three fairly serious burns, the first on the right leg, the second is a hole from once side of my arm to the other, and the last is on the right shin. Bad if one day I go back to practicing Muay Thai. In the hospital the nurses and doctors are behaving great, including nicknaming me \u201cbombiux\u201d and I have hope in saving my leg.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE LEGAL SITUATION<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here the problem is that another person is now implicated because we made the error of carrying in the backpack which remained at the scene her ID and because of that they identified her and linked her with a video of the area. Yesterday (June 28) they told me that she was detained, or rather with their words: \u201cnow we\u2019ve got your girlfriend\u201d \u2026 they said she made a statement against me and well, the same story. First, they wanted (and want) me to claim the attack on a bank in Tlalpan: \u201cI do not accept this,\u201d then they would say it was my comrade (now that she was identified) who did it: \u201cI do not accept this,\u201d and finally they wanted me to name more people who did it and obviously I did not accept this. Regarding my comrade they came to corroborate her physical information and all of this in front of a state lawyer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT ME<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I stated that I did everything from beginning to end and that I was individually responsible for this act (or attempt), of course this statement was made under pressure, with the army, with the marines, with the military camp #1 and also I was in a state of physical and psychological weakness as a result of the anaelgesics and the surgery on my leg. Even so, I maintained this declaration with the goal of not directly involving more comrades in my problem.<\/p>\n<p>I, as an anarchist, comply (as far as possible) with the consequences and responsibilities derived from my individual act. Therefore, I declared myself responsible for this act from beginning to end, my comrade was only there at the moment when the device exploded and the most serious error was having her ID with us.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE SOLIDARITY FROM COMRADES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yesterday I almost cried (and today while writing this letter) when the lawyer told me that everyone was outside. It gave me goosebumps that independent of the differences of how we see things, the paths to follow, the means, etc. It showed me that relationships are also built through mutual knowledge. Some take one path or decisions, others others, but at the end of the road is absolute freedom.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT HOW I\u2019VE IDENTIFIED MYSELF<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since the bomb exploded I have identified myself as an anarchist in spite of the \u201cconsequences\u201d that my way of life, struggles and ideas can lead to.<\/p>\n<p>The federal police arrived and tried to turn me and of course I did not accept it. Three years less in jail for being a snitch is not worth it, not even if it was 30.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the motives that led me to carry out this action, they are more than my futile and contradictory statements to the prosecutors who never stopped pressuring me. In short, as an anarchist, I don\u2019t consider that this type of situation or political moment should be the starting point for projecting our struggle, as building-destruction is the daily construction of our persons and of our goals. I only consider it necessary to draw a clear line regarding political parties without contradicting the above statement. Even more so in these times where populist discourses (democratic left or right) can be confused with our proposals and ideas of freedom.<\/p>\n<p>The IFE (Federal Elections Institute), PRD (Party of the Democratic Revolution), are a couple more institutions that are just like a bank or a police station that conform to the machinery of the system.<\/p>\n<p>This is my statement to the comrades and not to the muddling and manipulative questions of the police, who, without any form of counsel made me fall into unbeneficial positions for my case\u2026but you are the ones who are most important.<\/p>\n<p>I identify myself as an anarchist enemy of any kind of State and of capital, each chooses the methods or means according to their criteria, but the struggle is a daily one, inside and outside of the prisons.<\/p>\n<p>To the comrades in solidarity and to the <em><strong>Anarchist Black Cross<\/strong><\/em>, a strong, combative hug and thank you for being with my mother, she understands the situation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Greetings to Luciano Pitronello!<br \/>\nSolidarity with all prisoners of war and political prisoners in the struggle!<br \/>\nSolidarity with the comrades who are prisoners in Italy!<br \/>\nFor the destruction of the prisons!<br \/>\nSocial war on all fronts!<br \/>\nLong live anarchy!<br \/>\nThe claim of responsibility begins!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><strong><em>Mario, Tripa<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\nJune 2012<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from materialanarquista, transl slackbastard: Hello dear comrades, as you already will know (inside and outside of Mexico) I find myself hospitalized due to injuries to my shin, leg, and right arm.
