How To Get Sponsored Ski-doo

If I was not convinced from the Church ...


If at the time by the Church had received the support of the state. If men who fought this cancer that eats up my land for years had had on their side even the state. If the institutions that pay lip service said they wanted to defeat the Mafia had really supported those words with deeds. If the ruling class in Sicily had not been so weak as to yield to the blandishments of the octopus, making collusion. If the death of my heroes were really served to win the war. If that war had really been declared by the State and not only by a handful of men, true servants of this land. If that war had really been won. If years and years of oppression, misery and fear they were really too many. If someone had at heart the welfare of this island. If many of my countrymen had not turned their backs on their people in the name of power, money and greed. If the reason of state had been boycotted in the name of reason of the people. If those bloody hands had not been manipulated by cynical and lucid minds. If politics had not colluded so putida. If at least people's voices and suffering had been heard. If this had not bent to their will. If the entire Sicilian people had not been afraid. If bullets and rivers of blood in the streets of Trinacria had not stopped all of us. If the state had apologized. If more people would be outraged. If this had happened today commemorated with less hypocrisy Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa, his wife, Emanuela Setti Carraro, the agent of Commons, Domenico Russo, brutally killed at 21:15, 3 September 1982, in Isidoro Carini, Palermo. I remember them as really deserve. With respect.

'[...] there are things that do not make for courage. We are able to continue to look calmly into the eyes of their children and children of their children. There are too many honest people, a lot of ordinary people, who trust in me. I can not disappoint her. "

(Carlo Alberto Dalla Chiesa to his son, quoted in 'Crime imperfect' Nando Dalla Chiesa, 1984) [1]

Mangano is your hero. From our Church.
