REYES' DEATH SHOULD NOT BE IN VAIN!

Whatever is his reason for killing himself, here’s hoping that the death of former Armed Forces chief Angelo Reyes will NOT BE IN VAIN.

For the Senate, especially Sen. Antonio Trillanes, may the death of Reyes serve as a CRYSTAL-CLEAR reminder that accused persons have the right to confront their accusers.

Not only in the interest of fair play but more importantly, for an  opportunity for the accused to CLEAR HIS NAME and PROTECT HIS OR HER REPUTATION on the spot.

FREE from any INSULT OR INDIGNITY from any senator while doing so.

Remember, Trillanes bluntly REFUSED to allow Reyes to question George Rabusa who had accused him of irregularities in a Senate hearing. ININSULTO pa ni Trillanes si Reyes na WALA ITONG REPUTASYON na dapat pangalagaan.

Anybody can correct me if I’m wrong but Senate investigations are supposed to be UNCONDITIONALLY IMPARTIAL anytime and only in aid of legislation. Not of PERSECUTION or character assassination, by any senator.

Unless there is a law which gives senators the right or privilege to INSULT or call an accused by any name or adjective he or she wants at any given time.

For our soldiers, whatever drove Reyes to suicide is something REALLY BIG. And don’t forget, he was not the only one being accused in the exposes.

Kaya’t dun sa mga may puwede pang ibulgar, magsalita na kayo. Kung ayaw ninyo ng harapan, ibigay na ninyo ang LAHAT NG EBIDENSIYA na hawak ninyo sa mga kinauukulan Mapipigilan lang ang kawalanghiyaan, kung MALALAMAN.  

There should never be another Angelo Reyes.

Pare, where are our priorities? Ano ba talaga ang mahalaga sa atin? Ang katotohanan o ang takot na tayo ay maging dahilan ng pagkapahiya at pagpapakamatay ng isang akusado?

Nakakatuwa( o nakakainis( tayong mga Pinoy. Di tayo maka-alpas sa damdamin ng pagiging "alipin" ng ating mga pinapanginoon sa pamahalaan, Di nga tayo magkaisa sa pagkakaisa na tumayo sa pamantayan ng katotohanan at mamuhay ayon dito. Nagpapakabaon tayo hanggang ngayon sa kultura ng pagkamahiyain.

@ MA. JENNAH MITRA of Quezon City: Trillanes' should have kept quiet about Reyes' death? Come on people, are you on your right mind? We are talking about corruption here. We should continue to look for the truth. It's fallacious to say that Trillanes should stop giving statements regarding what happened cause Reyes' family is still grieving. That's ad misecordiam!

A follower who asked to be called only as SANCHO:

The Reyes extreme sacrifice is an indication of a true and loyal follower to his superior regardless of what nature. The sad thing about it is the timing and the unfinished mission to expose the real truth and possibly in cleansing his name for his family. Sen. Trillanes only reflected the added "arrogance" of the Senate,  getting worst without anyone ending behind bars, only in  grandstanding.

RIZA VALBUENA of Mandaluyong:

If you were following what really transpired in the previous days, Trillanes named Reyes as "one of the big personalities" behind Garcia based on the statements of Rabusa. He never said Reyes was the one he was talking about when he said that there's someone more powerful behind Garcia. Ngayon lang nagsalita si Trillanes.

Three of our followers  on “Congress not acting on ‘menopausal bitch’ case”:

Alliance of Volunteer Educators Party-list Rep. Eulogio Magsaysay should go to Belo or Calayan to have his dragon tongue replaced with a more aesthetically appropriate tongue because his present is very un-educator and most importantly very un-congressional. But he should do it on his private time. Congress should suspend him. I am afraid his namesakes, Sen. Eulogio ‘Amang’ Rodriguez and Pres. Ramon Magsaysay are now squirming in their graves.

MA JENNAH. MITRA of Quezon City:

Many of us are like Rep. Magsaysay, arrogant and think we  are better than others. So they look down on other people. They always forget the golden rule. Nagtataka pa ba tayo kung bakit magulo ang mundo?
