Anti-mafia is going in Second Life

Anti-mafia is going in Second Life
Pino Masciari is a Calabrian ex-building contractor that rebelled to Calabria mafia's threatening system many years ago. He sued his blackmailers starting a trial that is still running nowdays. After that day, mafia and many mafia-colluded Italian politicians forced him to close his company, and now Pino is hiding somewhere to avoid to be killed by mafia. While Italian State give to Pino broken armored cars, mobsters can still today walk freely in Calabria and act as gods. On 28 of October 2007, Pino managed to came back to Calabria with an escort to discuss with the ministry of inner affairs and other politicians why he have still to live as rat and mafiosi can do what they want. At the same time, Pino connected to Second Life at San Marco square in Venice Italy to explain to onlookers his situation. You can still contact him using the guest book from the Beppe Grillo Point in Venice Italy and in Lupulinus This is just the first step to ensure to Calabria and southern Italy a future free from mafia.

Few understand, abroad, how many italians feel shame for this mafia impunity. But many politicians act on behalf of mafia mainly in the center field of the italian parties.

The whole world have to know that calabrians are very very upset and they want to stop the mafia's dictatorship that deny a normal life to Calabria and southern Italy. Mafia cannot live without the help of local and national politicians that ensure them protection from police and judges, sometimes some mafia's big shots have relationships even with the Vatican. The Italian State and the mafia are cooperating togheter to destroy any effort to clean southern Italy (and Italy as well), calabrians have to emigrate abroad or in northen Italy even for a common surgery because mafia decide who have to be employed in hosptials (and most of the hospital's staff manager have a very low professionality) so the professionality of most of these "employees" is very bad. I want to see awaken all the calabrians in Italy and abroad and fight against mafia, I WANT TO BE A FREE MAN!!!!
