Stop the Crime against Humanity : Prevail the Peace

 

Violence is a crime against humanity , for it destroys the very fabric of society.

– Pope John Paul II

Stop the Crime against Humanity : Prevail the Peace

Dead people in the streets, families who mourn and cry, sexual violence against women, robbery/kidnapping, killing thousands of civilians who were accused for using drugs – these are the things I observe in our country’s present times. Those crimes against humanity are rampant in areas since then.

We, the Filipinos, can’t be at ease in our own safe haven now. We couldn’t go out alone and to not be vigilant of our surroundings when it gets dark outside our homes. We wouldn’t know what might happen to us or we might be dead the next day. No one can assure their safety. Crimes are everywhere; it can be anytime and could victim anyone.

All of us feel frightened, angry, disappointed, confused to what’s happening now. We are frightened to the extent that we can’t trust anyone anymore. Angry and disappointed to our government who can’t even find a way to stop killing innocent people and find the justice for them. Confused to the things why we have to kill each other. Why is it like this? Why is there a blood shedding?

For the last past years, there was an enormous killing of people especially when the current president emerged. One example of this is that there was a continuous drug-related fatality. There were already thousands of Filipinos who died either on the streets or inside the house with several gunshots.  If you will watch it on the news it’s too cruel and vexing. It’s feels like it’s so easy to attack a person without any mercy. There were also innocent children and adults that were being shot because of the drug war. Why do they have to commit something like that? I know it’s only the effective way to cleanse our country of the drug menace but it’s too bloody and harsh. There’s no justice through the smoking barrel of guns.

I want them to know that doing those acts will not solve anything hence it will only arise to another problem. They should consider the families of the victims or suspected men. What they would feel. How the Filipinos will see the government that’s ruling our country. Everybody deserves to defend and explain their selves and that’s why there are human rights.

Leaders are appointed by the followers to be their role model, to show what’s right or wrong, to keep his promises, to listen whoever’s pleading, to serve and to keep the right path for the sake of his country. Yes, we want our President to succeed in his fight against illegal drugs but in his haste and zeal, he may end up accused of a crime more serious than the ones perpetrated by his enemies. So before anything gets darker, they should find the most appropriate and better way to stop it. Improve and fix the defective justice system of the country.

  • Crime is something that is so unnecessary and the people that lower their standards to commit should be punished. 

    The crime should fit the punishment.

  • the solution here is Death Penalty because the criminals doing something wrong have no fear.

  • Killing now a day is very rampant since the current administration focuses on crime, corruption and drugs. Human rights are being violated because they are not giving the victim the right to be heard. Even if there’s permission from the President there must be a due process to be done.

  • For me it must also be subject to free food especially the poor people because sometimes they look pitiful especially when they need to eat.

  • For me to lose the crime is to restore the death penalty because not be able to leave the crime if you do not return the death penalty.

  • Crime is one of the never-ending issues our country was facing up to now. The number of casualties becomes more and more disturbing over the years and yet justice for victims haven’t been served. As much as I loathe the killers, murderers and criminals, I wouldn’t want them to suffer the way their victims did. Giving them death sentence will only add up to the deteriorating sense of humanity. I would like to make an amendment to the current law regarding heinous crimes. The law shall be known as “Humanity Promotion Act of 2017” or “Republic Act No. 65123”. Under this law, the justice system must be strengthened in order to achieve justice for the victims of a heinous crime. Upon the implementation of this law, the police officers must be given with a just time frame to place the criminal or accused person to their custody. If the officers failed to accomplish it in a given time frame, they will be relieved from their position. This amendment surely won’t cause a delayed justice. The person who has been proved of committing a crime will spend the rest of his/her life in prison and will be given a work inside the prison in the first two years of imprisonment. All of his/her earnings will be given to the family of a victim as a somewhat compensation (although money can never ever be considered a compensation for a crime which resulted to a death or messed-up life of a victim). There must a more suitable term to replace compensation but I just can’t put my fingers on it. It will be the government’s way of providing financial assistance for the family of the victim by obligating the criminal to earn it under heavy workloads.

  • Republic Act No. 65123

    this act is know as the punishment act it is no bail for criminals. and for me i’m against of it because our lives are very important and it is becomes a battle cry of those who angish in silence. let justice be done though the heavens fall”. Fair justice shoul always prevail, especially when lives are at stake.

  • Republic Act 17567 section 2
    Criminals who committed heinous crimes and prove guilty will be punished by death penalty. In this section the criminals should pay for their specific crimes. In this advocacy i feel so related because of the unsaid events in our past lives that trully changes my perspective against justice because glady the justice is with us. We my family, have no desire to argue we just chose to fight because we only want peace and even justice. but now a days justice should imrove MORE.

    Sadly enough, the Philippines now has become a place of bloodshed because of extra judicial killings movement. I am against the idea of death penalty as punishment for criminals who committed drug-related crimes or any heinous crimes. This act is not going to solve the problem, it was proven already by previous studies whereas the rate of crimes didn’t decrease rather it remains the same. The problem here lies with the lack of funds for the government programs to the poor.
    Republic act no. 13200
    “Livelihood Education as Prevention to Crimes”
    Section I: The poor will be having seminars and training on proper management of budget and business. A job may also be provided after job trainings and seminars.
    Section II: Their children will be provided with free education and the government will also grant them a house to live which has an expiration on when it will be free.

    Section 3 – Under the 1987 Constitution Section 1 Article 3, No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law, nor shall any person be denied the equal protection of the laws.

    Section 4 – The suspect shall have the right be heard by himself and the counsel.

    Section 5 – If the suspect has been proved of committing a heinous crime, will be sentenced a lifetime imprisonment or reclusion perpetua.
