Its only necessary only for 1 night.
Yes you're absolutely right! If there was no curfew I'm sure the military wouldn't be able to tell rebellious tanks and military trucks from normal cars on the expressways. I'm sure Metro Manila is going to be crawling with rebellious soldiers when I get up in the morning, because they're so stealthy that the there hasn't even been a single mention of any unauthorized troop movement anywhere in the country.
I'm also sure that the entire country will be destabilized by raging leftists if not for the curfew, which is why the government was right in once again impinging on my constitutionally guaranteed right to free movement and liberty.

There is Jurisprudence on allowing an elected Senators to attend his own hearing, because the fact that he was elected after he was charged means that the people are willing to overlook the discretion. While we're on the topic of the the judiciary, might I remind you that this is the very same judicial system that allowed the freedom of a convicted plunderer while I personally know people that have waited for three years in prison for their minor estafa trials to start?
Might I also remind you that the legislative body is a separate and co-equal body of the government in relation with the judiciary? Again, it's in the constitution.
So excuse me but I, and all the other registered voters who put him in office expect him to be present at Senate hearings. I also don't give a f*ck about what he does in his spare time, so before quoting the law make sure you know the law first. I do think he's being an attention whore though, but it's his idealism, policy and agenda that was worth voting for in the first place.
Quote:The media are overreacting over the arrest of their fellow media personnel, and are bitching about it.
I'm sure all their dead acquaintances who exposed anomalies in shady government dealings for nothing but shitty pay in their unknown provincial media outlets are bitching too, because dead people really do stand up and protest a lot.
