I did not see this coming in a million years. And I guess nobdy did, except those who thought they can pull away with another people power. It is so 1980's and like bangs and padded shoulders, napakalaos na.
Trillanes has been in jail for a long time. He was not able to see what is actually going on outside. Rallies and call for support will not stir the people anymore. What we need are real life heroes willing to give their lives up for the cause.
For a while during the coverage somebody said they will take it to the very end "at ito ang magiging bagong Pasong Tirad." Strong words but no balls pala. After an hour, a dose of tear gas and a series of gunshots, suddenly they came out misty eyed surrendering.
Not a good role model. Not that I want to see bloodshed, but what we need is a new Che guevarra or a Ninoy Aquino to capture our minds and imagination. Eh kung ganyan ganyan lang konting sakit give up na, wala talagang mangyayari. Poor planning and execution. Kailangan pa ng practice.
Remember noon 80's its just the radio. And video killed the radio star. Ngayon may cellphones, live coverage and internet na. We have to adjust to the times. Hindi pwedeng bagets pa rin ang tugtog ng boombox.
