Rappler on Garma, Leonardo and Duterte

It is more fun criticizing

Its really more fun watching these quadcomm hearing and reading articles on this.  This is so surreal.  And one wonders really about the truth.  Its like comparing Islam vs Christianity.   

One begins to conclude that the truth is what you believe in.  Since these officers support the "drug war" and which they conclude is good for the country, "para sa bayan"  nothing was perceived in this pursuit as wrong.  However the killings associated with sharing the spoils of power, as in PCSO, the remittance of money to X, are totally wrong.

Its a waste of talent if indeed these officers will be charged as criminals.   IN the eyes of PD30, and his allies, these officers were heros and were idols of the administration

One can speculate and observe the following:

1.  While many have criticized the Legislature for engaging in prosecution work, the results that it has achieved now would not be possible if CIDG were to do it (no investigation would ever happen) with NBI, with low level prosecutors.   Generals and senior officers would not even appear nor speak.  We thank the quad com

2.  PNPA vs PMA yers conflict

3.   Coddliing of police by the executive branch.  PNP as private army of the exuctives:    National, and lgus.  As it was in the beginning

4.  Corrupation and graft at all levels.   Gambling lottery and POGO as the root of all evil.   

5.   Was this a political strategy?  Achieving quad results?

6.  Betrayal change of alliiance due to change in power structure.   Loyalty, being from the same place does not breed alliance and permanence
