6 Speak Out:
First they came for Jonas Burgos, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t an activist.
Then they came to handcuff and detain journalists in Peninsula upon the orders of the Interior Secretary, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a journalist.
Then they came to pick up Jun Lozada from the airport for a long, long ride, and I didn’t speak up because I was “apathetic”.
Then they came to push for Con-Ass to prolong the Malacanang tenant’s stay beyond 2010, and I didn’t speak up because I was “apolitical”.
Then they came to bully a 14-year old boy and his dad in the golf course and I didn’t speak up because…… I wasn’t an “elistista”!
Then they came for me……. and by that time no one was left to speak up.
I feel for Jonas Burgos' family and the de la Paz family. I, however, do NOT frankly feel for people who decide to marry "guns" (it's abnormal!) instead of women. They can all shoot each other for all I care because I feel that these fanatics are nothing but irrational terrorists. I'd take the side of our army anytime against these fanatic crazies.. nice blog btw!
EQ/blogsurdities ,
Ignorance and gun are definitely a bad combination.....
Yep, it makes me wonder if it's something "fraudian"... Guns could be psychologically symbolic of their repressed natures. Why can't they get a social l;ife without their guns? Why can't they feel "secure" without a gun? Isn't that weird???
I like the way you say "Fraudian" that connotes fraud rather than Freud, lol.
It saves me the time to explain their penchant for fraud and corruption PLUS their mental stability!
