Crazy people

Sometimes watching the news is quite bothersome.. Always listening to the same news over and over again, too little or too much ravelings that it makes you think that if the actions made were good or bad..

As everybody knows, I am already back here in PI.. The weather is going haywire but what the heck right?!

Knowing little oh me, I love watching the news and I came across about a certain lady sticking pens on some poor news crew.


NPC to file raps vs QC cops over attack on news team
03/17/2009 | 08:09 PM

MANILA, Philippines - The National Press Club (NPC) is set to file charges against several Quezon City policemen in connection with Sunday's mauling of an ABS-CBN news crew inside the Batasan police station.

To be named respondents in the complaint are several police officials from the Quezon City Police District Station 6, including station commander Superintendent Antonio Yarra and Chief Inspector Alex Alberto, the officer on duty when the mauling incident happened.

NPC President Benny Antiporda said they would file the complaint before the Philippine National Police Internal Affairs Service.

The brawl started when complainants Jackylyn Maulion, Luchie Maulion, and Eddie Masurong attacked Dexter Ganibe of ABS-CBN’s radio station dzMM and ABS-CBN cameraman Benedicto Ganelo for allegedly violating their rights to privacy.

Ganibe said the complainants hit and kicked them and even tried to stab them with a ball pen.

While confronting the news team, Luchie allegedly bragged that she works for a lawmaker, who later turned out to be Cebu City Rep. Raul del Mar.

Antiporda said they would lodge the charges complaints the police officers for sending Ganibe and cameraman Benedicto Ganelo behind bars. The NPC also slammed the Quezon City policemen for failing to break the fight that happened around 1 a.m. of Sunday.

GMANews.TV tried reaching Yarra and Alberto by phone but the police officers were not immediately available for comment.

Aside from the NPC, other media groups like the National Union of Journalists and the Metro Manila Radio Reporters Organization have likewise denounced the attack on the ABS-CBN news team. - Mark MerueƱas, GMANews.TV


I am not saying that it was not called for to do such things on the news crew but if you have any decency at all (wait.. If they were educated and brought up right.) you would not end up doing such "Immature" (could it be acting more like animals?) acts and gestures to people whom you do not favor of.

Okay they might have been appalled by the news team but such matters can be dealt in MATURE WAYS (violence is not the answer).

So sad to see how people act towards others, it is so insane and ludicrous.. (I confess that I am a war freak too! lol)

Let me know what you think about this...
