Brothers and
sisters:
We feel
deeply the horrific execution of Troy Davis. It is another terrible injustice
and stain on the history of this country. We join in the pain felt by his
relatives, friends and brothers across the world. Now we have another cause,
another flag, to pursue our struggle for a better world for all, free of the
death penalty and barbarism.
In Troy’s
honor, and all the innocents of the world, we must continue, united, until the final
victory!
Our most
heart-felt condolences!
Five fraternal
embraces,
Antonio
