ANTI- TERRORISM BILL II

[patsadahon]

---

If I were a legislator, I would not vote for this anti terrorism bill. This law is only passed to persecute the political opposition and not the terrorist.Â* It will give the government a license to raid media outlests, arrest individuals all in the name of the fihgt against terror.Â* It will give the Army of Fascist in the Philippines (AFP) a license to violate human rights.

Yeah right.Â* Where in the anti-terrorism bill is it stated that the political opposition should be persecuted as terrorists??Â* Have you even read this anti-terrorism bill yourself?Â* Otherwise that's just another propaganda of the opposition.

And who is stupid enough to put that provision in the law itself. What I meant is that this anti terrorism will the fascist army of Arroyo a carte blanch power to persecute the political opposition.

Palagpat ka imo. You can't even show how this law will give Arroyo carte blanche or whatever it is you're blabbing about. Just another futile attempt on your part to demonize the current administration.

Since it is our legislators who are deliberating on this anti-terrorism bill, it is up to them to ensure that safeguards are imposed to prevent the law from being used for political persecution. It is stupid to summarily reject the anti-terrorism bill just because of the paranoia of the opposition. We might as well be sitting ducks for the next bombing attack.
