Unfortunately, i have seen it on the news... what else can I say; the police were totally pathetic, like totally useless. How could've they acted in such a lousy way... like seriously, it was like watching a comedy series. It was really sad and shameless at how it all played out.... I guess as filipinos, we are just really doomed siguro, that is our fate... No need to complain, no need to waste time worrying about pretty much anything else... When you are doomed, you don't really need to worry about anything else, cause the outcome is all the same...
I really felt sad for those tourists whose only purpose was to have a nice time, look at how we treated them. There was this whole family ata, the husband died of protecting his wife from taking the gunshots, heroic but could have been avoided if the police just did their part. Ahhh... what more can I say... I wonder at how the police can still boast when all they can offer us are their blunder; corruption, torture, all sorts of evil things. Lesson here; you can't really trust the authority... you can't really trust anybody for that matter. You give people some small power, and all they will do is to corrupt it. That's the price for freedom I guess, you can choose to be GOOD or you can choose to be EVIL; sadly, people always tend to choose the easy road, and the easy road is at most times always EVIL. Cest la vie.
All these things lead to the same old problem; poverty. They showed this news about that guy who did the crime... turned out he was one of the GOOD cops; aha...ironical but true. He was a victim of the bad politics in our country... oh well. and here i am dreaming that somehow, someday there would be some hope pa rin sa tin.... I was surprised that before he was terminated, he was only earning a measly 20k peso...wtf.. He was even earning less than .5k during the 80s, when he started. Wtf is that... I guess you can't blame the police for doing bad things eh... nope, absolutely not. There's no justification to doing bad... although at some point, you need to understand where it's all coming from. Even people from rich countries apparently do evil things for money and power, it is how it is... just need to accept that fact about our human condition. At the end of the day, all you can really trust is yourself, your own experiences.
Oh well... let us still remain hopeful, even when hope might be the last thing that is available.
