Recreational and occasional user allowed under the new PNP chief - recalibrated approach

It is more fun criticizing

It was mentioned elsewhere that occasional and occasional use of drugs especially to stay awake on the joba as with drivers and conductor is OK.  This raised a lot of eyebrows.

ICC will be allowed to probe past admin brutal drug war?

It is more fun criticizing Former PNP chief ready to face ICC probe. But was surprised that PBBM did not stick to his word that ICC will not be allowed in Philippines as we have a fully functional justice system. Sen Bato, FPRRD may share the same sentiment

Fmr Senator Joke Arroyo used to say some controversies are about battle of commissioners? Are we witnessing war of drug lords?

The late fmr Senator Joker Arroyo said before during the time of former President GMA that certain scandals are sometimes merely a battle among commissioners.

How about the current drug wars?  Is it merely a battle who will Lord it over the drug business in the country.   Now that Mayor Espinosa, Parojinog, DL Odicta are gone, who is going to be the biggest Drug Lord.  The Chinese who has strong connection with high ranking govt officials who let drugs pass through BOC, or his connections?   Who kaya?  Nag iinuman kaya lang sila?  Bakit mag kasama sa pics?

One can speculate.  They can be true  or false

He who casts the first stone must suffer the retribution

We see images of a political fighter seemingly cornered being hysterical though still standing tall but asking the opponent to stop and have her jailed.

There is nobody like her:   a tactician, an academician,  very courageous, like a lioness, very bright and intelligent having made her mistake in the realm of power and politics. She played right into the hand of her opponent and the end game is perhaps she will be unseated in her present position, disgraced and shamed

She should have stopped earlier, licked her wounds and retreated.

On one hand, she presented her case to investigate the killings and the war vs drug.  But she lost her bearing and strayed elsewhere to destroy the seat of power.  It turned out her witness was not very credible:  plenty of inconsistency, uncorroborated statement, and worst of all.  It cost her committee chairmanship.  This coupled with her series of walking out, lessened her stature and her followers/admirer.

What is worse is the battle at the other house where interlligent and coherent and cogent witnesses piled up testimonial evidence against her.   Her former closed in security driver, videos, Generals, subordinates and so far, these can only be denied and no counter evidence has been denied.  And where is the missing P300 million.  Those who testified against her today were even more damning and damaging to her person.

As she said to Pres Duterte, the EJK was not caused by her but brought forth by his administration, as the testimony vs her was not created by the witnesses but emanated from her actions.

It was not a very good sight to see her speak on the dignity and rights of person and women yesterday at a CHR forum  With rights come great responsibility to be a great person also.  And to come forth with clean hands

Can Digong sustain his war vs drugs until the end of his term?

It is more fun criticizing

As of 3 pm today, the war vs drugs of Pres Duterte has resulted in nearly 500 dead, half of them from legitimate police operations, and the rest from vigilante killings, most of them bore weapons mostly 45 and 38 caliber.   Critics suspect some of them where planted.

Pres Digong hates drugs so much especially shabu because it is caused by chemicals. Some of chemicals used is battery water (sulfuric acid)  Drug users he said are also pushers to sustain the habit.  Most of them become violent, and  those who are users beyond a year are beyond redemption.  Those who advocate peace in dealing with drug addicts do not understand the propensity to be violent.  Some police officers have been injured gunned down in the drug operations.  These he said in his speech at Davao yesterday.

But pressures, are mounting vs the deaths resulting from the drug war.  UN has made its pronouncements.  The lawyers group are against the extra judicial killings. The Catholics have spoken against it. Richard Branson has spoken against the war of Digong and even predicted that it will not end drug problem in the country.  Soriano has made a swipe vs  these killings by mentioning sins vs the Lords commandments.

But we should appreciate the vigor and the determination of the Pres. to pursue what has promised to do.  At least we know something can be done right.  A problem has been addressed and very soon abuses related to drugs can end.  Like the narco politicos.
