bare Patria (Column # 8 published in 2008 in the late portal Ekovoces News )
In my house nobody cares that the flag flapping Peruvian is displayed on the roof on Independence Day. In fact, I think nobody cares even place, but they do because it is available for municipal and pay the fine unless you leave it like dripping and without bar on the balcony, like an old rag or blanket drying in the clothesline. Given the Recent events revolving around the respect for national symbols, I had to accommodate the flag the best I could to not think that should be honored as the red and white.
The "important" events that adorn the Fiestas Patrias 2008 are the long weekend, and photographs of a cumbia singer posing topless on a horse as a mount carrying the national flag. The defense minister, shocked, condemned to the lady and said the pictures lacked respect for the national symbol. Actually, I guess to the Minister of Defence seeing the pictures of scantily clad young lady thinking about something else other than Miss is half naked. After delighting the pupil will be repaired in the red and white, have closed the magazine with indignation (after final glance to check that what has been true), the will be thrown in the trash and asked the press to declare what he said. Genital over the flag, no way. We must investigate this girl, ask for forgiveness on his knees, you've seen.
I wonder how the magazine came to the office of minister. I also wonder why the minister was wasting time looking at these pictures if you have much work to do. After the message of this gentleman, several congressmen joined the complaint, members of Congress who should be analyzing the proposals of presidential candidates and Congress to cast a thoughtful vote at election time. But it is certain that the Founding Fathers also lost the time reviewing the material to see if the offense of Miss Cumbiambera was so offensive as it seemed to be.
How offensive is to place the national flag above the genitals? That flag is not a seat, you should not wear a patriotic symbol to sell sex, which is an obscenity posing nude with a symbol that honors the country. While it is true that the girl is topless, not in an obscene attitude. Leaving aside the aesthetic, which is irrelevant, it could say it is a fine art nude and that the flag is better placed, for example, which is displayed on the balcony of my house. I think it's more offensive to place a flag by a municipal ordinance and not by conviction, singing a hymn that is demeaning, honored with a statue in the Plaza Mayor of Lima to the conqueror who took his freedom to a people for 300 years (the statue was removed and relocated, but that it does not matter) or, finally, take the time, press and discussions at a small matter when there are more pressing problems in this country.
The latest news on the subject of Miss bearer is who has apologized to the minister. Happy 28, will have desired while the pages of this magazine happen again and again, Peru's problems are not solved because they waste time on irrelevant issues and the flag placed on the balcony of my house is still flaming, insults aside .
