Saint Oscar Romero - Patron Saint of Social Justice



Oscar Romero, the RC archbishop of San Salvador who was murdered for trying to give a voice to the poor people in that country.

Killed by military personnel trained in the U.S. in March 1980. A military who not only murdered him while performing a mass but killed many other religious as well as innocent civilians in a dark time of that country's history. And who probably orchestrated as well the massacre of people on the streets outside his funeral. 

The people, the ruling class, who controlled that military and dictatorship, some of them were also the first and only investors of Mitt Romney's Bain Capital. "Buy where there is blood in the streets."

"It is safer to invest in money (financials) and not in people." - - Bain Capital?
