Its been 4 days since this said incident, I decided to analyze this situation for two reasons: one, this is a serious topic about human rights and two, I noticed that this incident showed how cruel and brutal most people are that to the extent that they will mutilate the body in an extreme degree, and I want to reexamine our values as human beings.
This topic is all over the headlines, TV, radio and in the internet, the massacre of 57 people, and as of press time, still counting, for the sake of preventing someone to take the throne away from them. I will not go on to the bigger details, but I will summarize the big picture into one sentence. This massacre is worst than Hitler’s consecration camps, cannibal films and terrorist attacks. This massacre showed us that the possibility of us humans to do something extreme, heck, it is better described as inhuman for the sake of power.
Like the song by Gloc9 entitled Upuan (literally translated as Chair), there is one part of the song that says that if there is a chance, this said chair is fought by many people that is why the one currently seating on the chair protects it like it is his own life. The scenario happened to this case, the culprits, who are seating, clinging on to their power wants to stay longer that is why they did this certain act; unimaginable because of it’s brutally.
As of now, the government has no said action in this case. Considering the fact that it is OBVIOUS that they are the culprit, they still do ways and means to slow down the investigation, considering the FACT that the said culprit is a crony and that caused a landslide victory of the administration in the previous election.
After watching the news yesterday, hearing what my teacher’s opinion and opinions coming from the press, I examined myself, is there a being capable of doing this kind of crime? The only people I can cite doing it are those people living outside of the modern civilization and those people living in the caves back in the prehistoric times. Have we lost our values as humans? Or are we returning to our previous state, better known as cavemen? Or are we humans overprotective of our power?
The age of monarchy is over in our country, the Philippines, we should give others a chance to rule if they will rule for the sake of the people. If the said official wants to stay in the said position, do it in a clean way by the polls. Let the people decide if they still want the said person to stay in their position or they want them out. I think those guys forget the principle of what Democracy, 2010 Elections is all about. Democracy is the rule of the people and not the rule of a few. Democracy is about serving the people, for their sake and not for the sake of the sake of the money that will later corrupt their filthy pockets.
