Description
I saw this graffiti in Old San Juan on a wall facing the Bay. In English, it says "Our best treasure is the ELA". The ELA is the form of government Puerto Rico currently has: Estado Libre Asociado, which means Freely-Associated State. Lately there has been much debate as to what we should be, a state, an independent nation, or remain as a Freely-Associated State, which can be considered the middle ground, a little of this and a little of that. I won't get into my personal beliefs in this, but a lot of people feel that the ELA is the "easy way out", a way to make both sides happy, and that Puerto Rico's status as a territory of the United States should be resolved as soon as possible.
I wanted to post this in Photojournalism, but there wasn't any category that fit this and I try to avoid Miscellaneous if I can.

La pregunta del status es una que lleva tanto y tanto tiempo que ya nos ha hecho mas daΓ±o que bien. Es tiempo de decidir, y no es facil. Pero cuando la decision venga en serio, el ELA no sera una opcion, por lo mismo que tu mencionas, de que es un "middle-ground".
Muy buena foto, capturaste algo con mucha controversia.
