AT&T and JetBlue Airways are the latest sponsors to pull out of the June 11 National Puerto Rican Day Parade because the festival will honor Puerto Rican independence activist Oscar López Rivera, a former leader of FALN, which carried out fatal bombings in the 1970s and 1980s. He spent more than 35 years in prison before having his sentence commuted by President Barack Obama. Parade organizers, standing by their decision to honor López Rivera, said he “was never charged with carrying out the acts of violence.”Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.
