One of our officemates at our regional office in Cotabato was buried inside his Tamaraw in Ampatuan Killing Field. He was a bright young man in his 30s, full of promise, with two girls, the eldest being 6 years old. He was driving from Koronadal to Cotabato to report for work. He was one of those who was “in the wrong place at the wrong time” when this carnage happened. How will PGMA explain to his daughters why their father had to go at a very young age and who is responsible for his demise? When incident such as this happens, we wonder why did God allow PGMA to sit in Malacanang, we have been hounded by all sorts of catastrophes and now this massacre? To whom does PGMA pray for that it seems some kind of jinx is wrecking havoc on this country under her watch? Why have we reached this sorry state that our government cannot protect us and is not even willing to punish the murderers? In Davao, where we live, the Ampatuans reside in a sprawling mansion which is now being guarded by the local PNP and the Task Force Davao courtesy of Mayor Duterte. Why is this government protecting the perpetrator of this abominable crime? Why are we paying for their protection? Shouldn’t we be the one needing protection from them?
