Extrajudicial Killing

Now in the term of our president Mr.Rodrigo Duterte it is the most scary and strict
because killings are everywhere.There’s no certain place in killings here in the
philippines, although it is good for our country because the drug lords, drug addicts will
be lessen or gone but sometimes the police did not give a chance to the other drug
pusher, sometimes the other police officer use their power/authority to kill also an
innocent one. Mr. Rodrigo Duterte and Mr. Rolando Dela Rosa are good tandem
because they are both hate drugs.

We all know that putting to an end the lives of people is not good, but how about
the victims of the pushers and drug Lords? Is there have a justice for an innocent
children being rape because of drug addicts, the children using drugs even at the young
age? They kill, steal, hold-up, push drugs etc..Are we give them a considerable because
they are not in the government? No! they committed crimes. The authorities give them
the chance to surrender all of them so that they’re not getting hurt but unfortunately
some of them are trying to fight against the authorities so that they are not being caught
and put to jail. So it is their fault why some of them experience even into death.

Our governments doing is to clean and protect our country, so we should not
blame them of what happen in our country today because they only serving and doing
their job and wasting their lives too for our community and the people.

There are many ways aspects of the president`s solution to violence and crime
that I can understand and even support..Placing curfews on teenagers, alcohol
consumption, and more are smart preventive measures.

However, having said all that, I don’t believe that “SHOOT TO KILL” is the way to
achieve the goal of a safer country. When did fighting fire with fire ever actually work in
the long run? There has to be a better middle ground. If the president`s mandate of
shoot to kill is followed what we would end up with are even more vigilantes walking the
streets with a convoluted sense of wild wild west justice. This is not the way to make
things safe again, In fact, things might get even more dangerous.

We all want to live in a safe society. We want to able to raise the children in a
safer world. I commend the president on his mission to stamp our crime, drugs and
violence in the Philippines. On the note, we are all aligned in wanting a better country.
However, there has to be a way to do this while letting DUE PROCESS and the rule of
law prevail. I remember the latin legal phrase-`Fiat iustitia ruat carlum` which translate
into “let justice be done though the heavens fall”. Fair justice should always prevail,
especially when lives are at stake.
