"The fact that a guy like Donald Trump, candidate for president of the United States for the Republican Party, has the guts to continue harassing 'free' to the Latino community makes my blood boil," the Puerto Rican artist starts his missive.
Ramos, considered one of the most influential journalists in the United States, was expelled by a member of the security Trump a press conference in Dubuque (Iowa) when trying to ask for details of his immigration plan Tuesday.
"The episode yesterday against journalist Jorge Ramos, one of the most beloved and respected by the media in the Latin world, reaches the point of enough is enough," said Martin.
Trump, the day he announced his presidential aspirations called undocumented Mexicans in the US "rapists" and "drug traffickers" proposes to deport all 11 million immigrants without regularizing residing in the country and build a wall along the border with Mexico.
"At what point assumes that this character can make racist comments absurd and, above all, incoherent and ignorant about us Latinos?" Asked Martin.
"From the beginning the intention was clear: basically say atrocities and lies to remain relevant in the public eye by votes or just to stay in the media radar," continues Martin in his letter.
The Puerto Rican singer defended Ramos do "his work as a journalist at a press conference at which he appeared in a free and democratic manner" and he said, "with the same right to free exercise of the profession who are all journalists."

The video released by the expulsion channel shows Fusion Ramos held outside the press conference, while an unidentified man shouted "Go to your country!".
"I'm not surprised this action Trump, what does surprise me is that Hispanics continue to accept the attacks and accusations of individuals as he attacked our dignity. BASTA gentlemen!" Martin stressed.
"If we are united we must be, for some things for others. We have demonstrated to the United States who are Latinos and this behavior we can not allow," said Puerto Rican singer.
Martin stressed that it is time to "defeat the power that tries to show Trump about Latinos," because as the message of the Republican presidential candidate said he is "anchored in a rhetorical and low xenophobic speech that his campaign seems convinced that It works. "
Subsequently, the press officer of Trump, Hope Hicks invited Ramos to return to the press conference for his question, the Republican candidate, the favorite of the surveys, he said without giving specifics.
When asked how he will deport 11 million people, Trump replied that "very humane" manner, starting with "criminal gangs", which he said sent "back to Mexico."
"Let us show that our Latin race is respected and not let an aspiring politician sow his campaign insult and humiliation. Let us give respect to those first generations of Latinos who came to America and paved the way for us. Every right that we today we have fought, "Martin noted.
