art-of-kiko: art-of-kiko: Major turn-on [now that I have your attention - sorry for cat-fishing you!!!!!!] The Philippines has 1 week left until the ATB lapses into law. This law will criminalize dissent & opinions that are directed against the government. I actually did not speak of this outside of Facebook and Twitter but I received death th/reats on some of my art pages and personal accounts for speaking and making art about and against this bill. Since March to June, a lot of my protest art was constantly reported and taken down on sites. There has already been multiple wrongful arrests. They arrested jeepney drivers for protesting about having no income and no medical aid They violently arrested students for a peaceful protest against the bill & the poor medical assistance against the virus They also violently arrested queer activists in a peaceful protest against the bill and to approve SOGIE Equality Bill which approves LGBTQ+ rights in the Philippines Multiple teachers have been arrested for publicly criticizing the government and politicians since March 2020 during the start of lock-down Facebook censored and took down Filipinos’ posts about and against this bill Facebook, instagram and twitter users (ESPECIALLY STUDENTS) who spoke against it had clones & dummy of their accounts My people have been suffering in my country. This bill will label protesters as terrorists and arrest them without warrants. They are still not giving us medical aid. The military continues to consume so much of our country’s budget. They are censoring us to make us quiet. Please help us junk anti-terror bill. PETITION: JUNK THE ANTI-TERRORISM BILL AND UPHOLD HUMAN RIGHTS! If you would like to know more, you can read this twitter thread about it. I will add more stories of injustice every single time I reblog this. Let’s start with April 21, 2020 – The murder of Winston Ragos, an ex-military officer. He was shot near a quarantine control point along Maligaya Drive in Barangay Pasong Putik, Quezon City after he appeared to try to pull something from his sling bag while taunting the law enforcers. While witnesses were shouting to search Winston first, Master Sergeant Daniel Florendo Jr, shot him twice. Winston’s mother said people were shouting because they believe Winston carried no firearms despite displaying anger at cops. He was mentally ill and could have challenged cops on a whim. “They think he had bad intentions, but the bag that hung over his neck only has a water bottle inside,” Merlyn told Rappler in a phone interview on Thursday, April 23. She should know, she said, because she gave her son the bag herself. Police then reported to the public that they killed Winston because he kept a gun inside his bag. However, on June 4, 2020, the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) has concluded that Master Sergeant Daniel Florendo Jr and other police companions murdered former soldier Winston Ragos, planted evidence in the crime scene during the scuffle over enforcing quarantine rules in Quezon City in April. NBI Deputy Director Ferdinand Lavin confirmed to reporters that the bureau has filed complaints of murder, perjury and planting of evidence against Florendo before the Quezon City Prosecutor’s Office. Murder is a non-bailable offense. Aside from Florendo, police trainees Joy Flaviano, Arnel Fontillas, Dante Fronda and Dalejes Gaciles are also sued for murder. Florendo and Staff Sargeant Hector Besas are sued for planting of evidence.
