Thugs in uniform
The Inquirer has called for the resignation of thug-in-uniform Hermogenes Ebdane, under whose stewardship three major terrorists have escaped from Philippine prisons. Ebdane had the balls to call for anyone with a gun to shoot to kill the latest escapee, a three-bit terrorist named Rohman al-Ghozi. His brand of macho militarism is infuriating and I think resignation (or sacking) is not nearly enough punishment. Then again, what do you expect from the den of hooligans and thugs that we call our national police? "Nakatakas si gago. Pag nakita nyo, barilin nyo ha?!" (The bastard escaped. Kill him on sight.) I wonder what Wild West cliche Ebdane is living, but he doesn't deserve to captain a force whose job is to protect people rather than incite them to vigilantism.
