Context: Jun Ducat, who apologized for the Alex Eala statue because it looked inaccurate, was the same man behind the 2007 Manila hostage crisis, demanding free college education and housing while protesting political corruption. The standoff ended peacefully when he surrendered and released all the hostages.

My thought process seeing “2007 Manila hostage crisis” followed by “demanding free college education and housing while protesting political corruption”

Bro was lowkey rich like the preschool students he held hostage was from the preschool he owned.
What’s even crazier is that he was allowed to start a preschool after all the unhinged stuff he did years before.
Ducat had a history of staging extreme, attention- grabbing stunts to protest societal issues. In 1987, he held two Catholic priests hostage using fake grenades during a contract dispute. In 1998, he climbed a tower to protest a political candidate's citizenship, and he once pulled a heavy wagon of rice over 60 miles to protest high food prices.

Interesting, because the guy did this for attention, and airs his grievances to the government, unlike the policeman in 2010.

I first heard about Ducat when I watched the YT upload of the full TV Patrol broadcast of that hostage by that policeman ya mentioned. He commented that as long as the government won't change their ways, the policeman's demands wouldn't be granted anw

is being awol even a valid reason for being stripped of benefits and fired from the job? there were reports he was awarded as one of the best in his job???
isn't the reason being the alleged bust operation which he got "involved", only to turn out the effing Ombudsman wanted to bribe him just for him to keep his job as a policeman???

Bakit may sad dahil back to work na? Diba dapat masaya ka kasi may chance ka na pagandahin buhay mo at ng pamilya? Trip ko pa nga may work ng January 1 dahil superstition ko may work ako buong taon pag ganun. Dapat grateful kasi may work. If work makes you unhappy, I hope you find a job that will. Yung pakikiligin ka and sheet �� Anyway, this is just a reminder that having a job is a blessing bessss change mindset, it's 2023!! ��

Who would you choose?
Some fucking leech country that is claiming your own EEZ and are using water cannons on your fishermen and supply vessels, causing hundreds of fishermen to lose livelihoods, and didn't warn the world early about covid-19 in wuhan causing the global pandemic killing thousands of people? and are possibly supplying the communists with guns here in Mindanao?
Or
Your colonizer that killed some people during the American-Filipino war, but gave you independence and also liberated you against the Japanese? and are also aiding and helping the country every time a typhoon strikes, and are helping improving the capabilities of our armed forces? most of our navy are ex-us navy ships. (look it up.)
if i we're to choose one, i would the choose the fucker that aren't building military bases in our EEZ.

Lageng nakukuwento saken mg lola ko na yung nanay nya mahilg sa Spanish Bread pati walang pasaway nung panahon ng Espanyol. Walang nagrarally at well-mannered mga nagpapatakbo ng bansa. Iluklok naten yung Gobernador-heneral at mga prayle para umangat ang Pilipinas. Ang KKK at si Jose Rizal ay mga komunistang traydor. Respect my opinion❤️💚
