8In Puerto Rico, for many years, people from disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds have occupied public lands to build their homes because the government's existing social policies and programs have done little to curtail poverty and provide an adequate affordable housing stock.Efa an-taonany maro ny sarangan'olona niangaran'ny vintana, tany Porto Rico, no nanori-ponenana teny amin'ny tanim-panjakana satria zara fa nisy ny politika sosialy sy ny fandaharan'asa tontosain'ny fitondrana ankehitriny hampihenana ny fahantrana sy hanomezana toeram-ponenana takatry ny sarambambem-bahoaka.
9The controversy has provoked impassioned debate in the Puerto Rican blogosphere.Nampamaivay adihevitra teo amin'ny tontolom-bolongana Porto Rikana ity fifanoheran-kevitra ity.
10In her blog Poder, Espacio y Ambiente (ES), the law professor and expert on environmental issues, Erika Fontánez, condemned the Police aggression (ES):Ao amin'ny bolongany Poder, Espacio y Ambiente (ES), ny mpampiana-dalàna sy manampahaizana momba ny tontolo iainana, Erika Fontánez, no manameloka ny herisetran'ny Polisy (ES):
11The truth is that because they are Dominican, most of these families have had to put up all these years with discrimination, violence and intimidation from the Police and Housing officials.Ny marina dia Dominikana izy ireo, ary efa niaritra ny fanavakavahana sy ny fandrahonana avy amin'ny polisy sy ny manam-pahefana avy eto an-toerana nandritra ny taona maro.
12Today was the most recent episode, publicly justified as reasonable because they do not own the properties they reside in.Androany ny raharaha akaiky indrindra, nohamarinina ampahibemaso fa tsy azy ireo ny tany ipetrahan-dry zareo.
13They are not owners, true, but does this mean they do not have human dignity?Marina fa tsy tompony izy ireo, saingy midika ve izany fa tsy manana ny haja maha-olona azy izy ireo?
14Does not being home owners disqualify them of their civil rights, of dignity and respect?Fa angaha ny tsy fananany trano no mametraka azy ireo fa tsy hanana ny zony, ny fahamendrehany ary ny hajany izy ireo?
15Do they not deserve, even if they are not home owners, to be treated as humans?Tsy mba mendrika ny heverina ho olombelona angaha izy ireo na dia tsy mba tompon'ny tany aza?

17Fontánez also questioned (ES) why the government applies different standards to the developers who construct in equally dangerous or illegal terrains:Manontany ihany koa i Fontánez hoe fa nahoana moa ny governemanta no mametraka fenitra samihafa amin'ny mpanorin-trano amin'ny toerana iray mampidi-doza na amin'ny tany tsy ara-dalàna:
18In this case, to enforce the law through violent means has no legitimacy for citizens when they see that it is applied selectively against one sector that violates the judicial order because they lack basic rights and are subject to violence and the power of the state, while others violate the law to have luxurious summer houses, but they remain unpunished.Eto dia tsy omen'ny olona rariny ny fanaovana herisetra amin'ny fampiharana ny lalàna rehefa hitan'izy ireo fa misy sokajin'olona iray kendrena manokana, ka manitsakitsaka ny fahefam-pitsarana satria tsy manana ny zo fototra izy ireo ary mety iharan'ny herisetra sy ny fahefan'ny fitondrana, nefa ny hafa kosa mandìka lalàna hananana trano fipetrahana fahavaratra mirentirenty, nefa tsy mba faizina.

20There is a dilemma here between what is fair and what is legal.Misy zava-manahirana eto manavaka ny hoe inona no rariny ary inona no ara-dalàna.
21They are violating the law, but that does not mean it is fair to throw them on the streets and leave them without a roof over their heads.Nandika lalàna izy ireo, saingy tsy midika izany fa rariny ny handroahana azy ireo ho eny an-dalambe ka avela tsy hanana toera-ponenana izy ireo.

24This is about a basic human right: the right to adequate housing.Zon'olombelona fototra ny zo hanana toera-ponenana mendrika.
