translated from Spanish: Were not the children first: the unusual poster of the Deputy Fuenzalida (RN)

Controversy caused the poster who shared on Twitter Deputy RN Gonzalo Fuenzalida, where shows caricature of a child dress reo, carrying a knife in his hand, mentioning “delivers all #% j! r & f”. Above the child shows the slogan “not all children are white doves”.
Fuenzalida Tweet is part of a strategy to support the proposal of the Government to expand the identity Control Act children of 14 years and older, but clearly collides with the slogan “children first” that the Executive has peaked as their flag in the field of public policy. “Regrettable last year more than 40 000 children participated in crimes.” We have a participation of minors in the field of crime important today in Chile, and the logical thing is that if adults can now be controlled in their identity, that minors may also be”argued Deputy Fuenzalida in a statement , following the publication of the controversial poster.
Also added: “why should be an exception with respect to them in relation to elders?, and therefore I think that it should improve control of identity, give greater attribution to the carabiner in terms of registration and also be able to control through the” technological means which exist today to the minors”.
Deputy of the autonomist movement, Gabriel Boric, came out to criticize the publication via Twitter. “Stigmatization of children in an irresponsible way by a Deputy of the Republic. In addition to the bad taste of a phrase reminiscent of yesteryear. Lousy strategy of sowing fear to pass laws without support (control of identity for minors) “.”
For its part, the PPD Deputy and member of the Committee of safety citizen of camera, Andrea Parra, argued that “seems very serious to use the image of small children to criminalize them. Definitely the Government has lost the compass and their parliamentarians also, I think that we must analyse in depth strategies for the approach to serious public safety, but this cannot be through images that they injured the identity of children and their rights”.
