Today, I feel sad
Today, I feel angry,
Today, I feel sick,

Some of our friends got arrested during the last action against a
nuclear plant, and now we know that they are not going to come
back to us............

Every time I hear that someone has to face human justice just because he is struggling peacefully against this world that promotes violence (Through wars, pollution, etc....) I feel sick.........

I do not understand why, those who struggle for the respect of very basic rights, the right to live in a "clean" world where people do not have to be afraid about their future ( I mean, having the possibility to eat normal food, and drink clean water....) where people can choose their way of life, I do not understand why they and us are considered criminals...

While they simply try to give a real sense to this paper signed by most of the politicians around the world: The Human Rights Declaration...........

What about those who put humanity in danger with nuclear power, (I'd like to see one of them telling a kid from Chernobyl that it is a clean source of energy.....) with GMO's or dirty chemical plants, those who treat the planet as an open market where they can take whatever they want without taking care about the future.

Are they ready to account for that in front their own children? Or maybe they do not have children or worse they really don't care about that....

We are just trying to do the same work as the police: stopping those who are putting humanity in danger.

I'd like to express my gratitude to those who support us, thanks for this incredible amount of trust, you put in our work, in us.

For you my six friends, thanks for what you are, and for the beautiful job you have done...See you soon and take care of yourself.

Today, nausea takes back power
