Of Duterte, PNoy, crime

BUTUYAN

UN experts to Duterte: Don’t incite violence. Does that mean he alone may be violent?

Criminal liability may be lowered to 12. Let us focus more on social reform and less on criminal liability or penalty. There are crimes that even unreformed government is more guilty of.

Pnoy says presidency changed him. Did it? Of course he now has less hair and is six years older, but how come he still looks the same?

Cagayan top drug suspect slain in ambush. Mere suspects still deserve due process of law.

Dagupan ordinance imposes curfew for minors. How about the drinking adults, and where will the homeless go?

Why are journalists killed? Because some of them write too seriously for comfort, and serious people normally land in the ICU where, sometimes, they can get “killed” again.

Young boys get free circumcision. If adults get senior citizen discount, please inform some politicians about this offer.

Duterte warns lawmakers: Don’t stand in my way; don’t investigate me in war vs. drugs, crime. Goodbye, Congress! Stick to construction projects.

Cayetano and Senate allies awaiting Duterte’s word on committee chairmanships. Goodbye, Senate! Abolish the impeachment court.

No more politicians in the Department of Agriculture. Don’t be surprised if the marines believe that.

Floirendo: No strings attached to P75M given to Duterte campaign. “How true,” the marines must be chorusing.

Democracy in the time of Aquino. It was of the dictatorial kind.

Scrapping of irrigation fees eyed to help farmers. Many of them even pay NIA for rainwater.

Sin tax collections hit P8.9B. If only corruption in government were considered a sin, that amount would be small change.

Why Roxas lost votes? Ask Pnoy.

Farmers slam Aquino for deal on Luisita. They never knew what “Daang Matuwid” really meant.

Opinion writers and columnists are either intellectuals or wags. Some others are for hire like prostitutes.

PSA: 2.6 million Filipinos jobless. Only 2.6 million? Why, are the drug pushers now considered gainfully employed?
