The thought for seeking justice invokes fears, worries
and apprehensions of what might happen to me and my family, of whether it may
lead to success or just a failure, and of people’s indifference. While we have
overcome these doubts, the ongoing act in itself poses more challenges on our
safety, on our future and on our rights. Truth be told that these killings have
become rampant in the society and just because nobody dares to complain
outrageously, such practice will become the norm.
We just want to tell the world that KILLING
IS NOT THE SOLUTION IF OTHERS THINK IT IS. Here are some of the
reasons why:
1.
Life comes from God, only Him can take it
away from us. He gave us this gift so we can do something for the betterment of
our society and that we get to enjoy what the world offers.
2.
Right
to life. It is stated in Article III, Section 1 of the Philippine
Constitution that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or
property without due process of law, nor shall any person be denied the equal
protection of the laws. We should be
aware of this because everyone of us deserves to enjoy this most basic
of all human rights. If this can hardly be protected in this democratic
country, then this nation is doomed to destruction.
3.
Due process of law. Our constitution has enumerated
what actions violate the law and its corresponding sanctions. I just hope that it
will be strictly implemented by those in authority. Here comes in, the role of
the PNP for instance, in arresting those who disobey the law. If it leads to
imprisonment, why not?
I
know I am just being idealistic because it is what I learned from schooling and
what I hope this world does. The disparity between ideals and reality just
makes me feel sad and it makes me uncomfortable being an educator.
Whatever
that is, we continue this call for justice until the concerns would know how
important life is, how we value such and how we desire to have due process of
law.
