Why thousands demand Puerto Rican Governor Ricardo Rosselló resign | Just The FAQs
Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló faces calls to resign after private chats between the governor and members of his administration leaked, revealing the men mocking women, disabled people and victims of Hurricane Maria.
RELATED: • Video
Anger seething in Puerto Rico is expected to draw thousands to San Juan's cobble-stoned streets again Monday in an unrelenting push to force the U.S. territory's governor to step down.
The planned major demonstration follows a week of protests and outrage targeting Gov. Ricardo Rosselló, who is embroiled in a scandal over hundreds of pages of leaked text messages that contained misogynistic and homophobic language.

Being an angry lawless mob with only get you curfews and martial law
Their Governor is part of the U.S. government, Puerto Ricans are Americans and its our broken political system that propagates corrupt politicians across the country, we have lobbyist and big companies influencing the system and there is no accountability for those we put into office... We need to make sure that we hold our politicians accountable for acts that are not in service of the American people, that goes for Puerto Rico, that goes for Michigan, that goes for every state and territory of the United States where our elected officials have abused their position of power for personal gain at the expense of the American People.

The Trucker's union is staffed by Puerto Ricans, right?
So the horrible mishandling of the hurricane recovery didn't get Puerto Ricans protesting but rude messages did?

@Melissa Diaz ??? So you believe that the corruption and mishandling of the hurricane recovery in real life should have been as tolerated as it was but rude conversation on the internet deserves punishment?

@Melissa Diaz You might want to ease up on the caps lock; it makes you look hysterical. This had nothing to do with America or Americans in general. This was an internal Puerto Rican issue. The US government provided aid, your corrupt politicians mishandled it and you knew it.
