After a chaotic night in Bogotá due to the demonstrations of the people after the death of Javier Ordoñez, who died after a police procedure in which there is an evident excessive force, there are many voices of reflection.
One of them was from Jhon Duque, who was asked at the press conference prior to the match against Cali about the silence of the soccer players’ union, one of the most listened to in the country, in the face of these events, as there are few who they have come out publicly. This having as a reference to the protests made by athletes of various sports in the United States, for example.
The captain of Millionaires responded like this:
“It is not that it costs to support but that there is a lack of unity in some cases. We had been talking about what happened in Colombia and Bogotá last night, but there are things very clear and that is that human beings have become accustomed to judging, to taking justice by their own hands and that is not the right thing either. There are people who make mistakes, as we all do on a daily basis, there are times when we do not do what is right, but we are not the one to judge the people who do it, “he said.
In a row followed by complement: “There are many acts that must be condemned, but a situation in which a person, an individual incurs should not be generalized and say that all the people in the union do the same”.
Finally he sent a message: “This is a nice opportunity to tell the country that I reject any act of violence in general, but that we must unite and be one. They are not policemen and citizens, we are not white and we are not black, but we are one, we all deserve respect ”.
