"Today I get up, another day being a woman / Breakfast with another dead woman on TV
."
Mora Navarro wrote “Libres” four years ago.
He was 17 and studying anthropology.
We are in 2021 and there is one femicide per day.
Everything remains the same, or worse.
"I'm leaving my house, who knows if I'll be able to go back. I just want to walk in peace, stop whistling. Stop killing us!"
The dead woman with whom we had breakfast today is called Guadalupe Curual, she was 21 years old, a baby of one and
had made several complaints about threats and attacks against her former partner
, who ended up stabbing her in the middle of the central avenue of Villa La Angostura.
Guadalupe Curual
On a social media profile, Guadalupe wrote about her photo:
"I was born to be free, not murdered
.
"
Guadalupe sensed that she could die.
She had done what women who are raped are told: she had reported her ex.
But I knew that
reporting and having a perimeter are not synonymous with security
or anything like it.

She had made complaints against her attacker and was threatened.

It has been proven that
the men reported violate all the “protection” measures, which are not such.
A violent man who also proves that he can defy Justice is a man who feels completely unpunished.
Twenty percent of the murdered women had reported their murderer.
The message is terrifying: not even Justice can protect a woman from a violent man.
Neither do the security forces.
In fact, there are plenty of stories of femicides committed by men of any force.
Ursula Bahillo also sensed that she could die.
"If they kill me, you know who it was", "And if one day I don't come back, break everything."
Her friends, her family, went to the police station to complain about not having done anything to prevent the death of the 18-year-old teenager.
The Police responded with bullets.

"They have to remove the inoperative Luciano Callegari," asked Patricia, Ursula's mother, who had also denounced Matías Martínez.
Callegari is the judge who did not investigate or report the complaints against the Buenos Aires policeman who was on a psychiatric license.
Now he was denounced for "demonstrated incompetence or negligence in the exercise of his functions."

Weeks ago I asked
Kevin Lehmann - spokesman for the College of Magistrates and Officials of the Province of Buenos Aires
- to interview the judge, to explain his actions.
The spokesperson said no because
Luciano was depressed
.
I replied that I understood that he was like this because he must feel somewhat guilty about Ursula's death.
And the spokesperson replied:
“He did everything he had to do, with great commitment and speed
.
I don't know where you got the information from to disqualify him like that ”.
Two years ago, Congress approved the Micaela Law, which proposes training in a gender perspective for all people who are part of the three branches of the State.
The Micaela Law is so called because Micaela García was raped and murdered by a male who should have been in prison but was not because a judge had released him wrong.
If that judge had acted differently, Micaela would be alive.
Micaela Garcia disappeared in Gualeguay and was found murdered.
She was strangled and raped by Sebastian Wagner, on probation
The night before last I received the audio from another Ursula.
His cry was heard: “... the judge is going to release
him from
prison .... she
is going to give him community tasks.
.. but if it comes out it will kill us all ... can you help me?
Please I ask you ... please ... ”.
This Ursula is alive, for now.
And her ex is detained because at the end of last year her colleagues called the media to say that
no one was detaining this man
that Ursula had denounced 40 times.
As it came out in the media then he was arrested.
The media are not here to receive this type of complaint.
And if that happens - which is what has happened for many years - it is because the State is not working.
The panic buttons do not work.
Uncontrolled perimeters are useless.
Men who violate perimeter should be detained because they are committing a crime.
Last week,
Congresswoman Carolina Gaillard (Frente de Todos
) presented a bill that proposes modifying the Penal Code so
that men who do not comply with the perimeter restriction
in causes of gender violence
are arrested
.
"Alive I love us, free, without fear Alive I love us, free, without fear Alive I love us, free, without fear Alive I love us, free, without fear".
Will it ever be possible?
