Organizers of New York City's Puerto Rican Day parade are sticking with their decision to honor a freed militant who once embraced armed resistance to U.S. rule of Puerto Rico...

  During the 1970s and 1980s, FALN claimed responsibility for more than 100 bombings in the U.S. and Puerto Rico, including a blast that killed four people at New York's historic Fraunces Tavern in 1975.

  Lopez Rivera wasn't convicted in any of the bombings, but a former FALN member testified that he instructed members on how to make bombs. He served 35 years until his sentence was commuted by President Barack Obama.
