You asked for evidences. It's hilarious. The police department has not even caught these criminals you're now looking for the things to nail them in court. I daresay catch the crooks before you look for the evidences.
Â* YES catch the crooks and let them say personally that I am a VIGILANTE or just trying to ACT LIKE ONE . Is that what you are trying say ? If the POLICE has no clues of the identity of the criminals , how much more on us who only read , watch and listen to news ? Now if someone here POSITIVELY TAGS the criminals as VIGILANTES , kamo na lang pag NBI , PNP or CIDG .
Another thing, you asked if it was really the vigilantes who did those atrocities. Be reminded that the term "vigilante" is not actually the name of these hoodlums. For all we know they named themselves the Brotherhood of the Carabao. But the thing is, in order for the people and media to qualify these criminals, to categorize them they gave them a description, thus Vigilante, which means, "a member of a volunteer committee organized to suppress and punish crime summarily."
And since according to police records these 160 (imagine that man, if that doesn't shock you, I don't know what will) unsolved cases have similarities - armed men riding a motor cycle, gunned down victims were either criminals or suspected criminals - it's enough to say there are being done by these crooks, the vigilante.
Â* Does FRAT VIOLENCE count if that is the case ? Sus kadaghan na unsolved violence/killingsÂ* sa Cebu and your count is only 160 plus ? That is JUMPING to CONLUSIONS kay mao man sulti sa media .
The argument is a no-brainer, really. The real issue here is: Has our government (the police department for that matter) that inept to safeguard its citizens?
Â* Without the 160 plus killings by the VIGILANTES kuno , that is still a question everyone is entitled to address to the government and the law enforcement .
Because you know, the society might be conditioned through time that it is easy to purge out criminals and suspected criminals simply by killing them and not through our justice system.
Â* That is not the case . Kadaghan na gi salvage sa Cebu , the case is , NI EXIST BA GYUD BA ANG VIGILANTE or NAAY NAGPAKA VIGILANTE KUNUHAY .
And when that time happens, it's like living the horrors of Martial Law again.
Â* Then you can start laughing because that is not the "VIGILANTES" anymore doing the cime which we can obviously say , the CRIMINALS are identified because they dont have to wear a mask and ride motorcycles .
Supposing, part, you were unfortunately being labeled by your neighbors that you become rich is because you deal with narcopolitics. And the Vigilante heard this.
You were shot.
Â* If you are really engaged into it then bye bye .... but just because theyve " HEARD " about it is as easy as 1-2-3 to pay you a visit to your favorite tambayan is not the case . Ayaw himua ang " VIGILANTES " ug mga chismosa , if they really existed , I firmly believed they have their own form justice system ... angay ba gyud ka tipi-on or hatagan ug tsansa .
