"Donde se niega la justicia donde se impone la pobreza donde prevalece la ignorancia y donde se hace sentir a cualquier clase social que la sociedad es una conspiración organizada para oprimir robar y degradarlos ni las personas ni la propiedad estarán segu"

Simplified meaning
When people are treated unfairly, made to be poor, kept uneducated, and feel like the system is set up to keep them down, everyone is at risk. Think of a school where only some kids get good teachers and supplies, while others don’t. The kids who are neglected might feel angry or hopeless and act out, causing trouble for everyone. Over time, this can lead to a lot of problems, making the school unsafe for all students and staff. Similarly, in society, if only a few people have opportunities and respect, while others suffer, it can lead to bigger issues, like crime or unrest, impacting both individuals and society as a whole. For a peaceful community, everyone should be treated fairly and have a chance for a good life. Thus, it's important to ensure fairness, provide education, reduce poverty, and treat everyone with respect to keep society stable and safe.
