CRITICIZING the government’s “double standard,” Senator Joker Arroyo has called for the release of Representative Crispin Beltran and Navy Lieutenant Senior Grade Antonio Trillanes after former Senator Gregorio “Gringo” Honasan was released on bail.
Here’s an excerpt from the INQUIRER.net story:
“If Gringo can be released, why not Congressman Crispin Beltran? There is a double standard here,” Arroyo said. “The government did not oppose too much Gringo’s application for bail but opposes strongly that of Beltran. Why?”
Arroyo pointed out that Honasan, Beltran, and Navy Lieutenant Senior Grade Antonio Trillanes are all candidates in the May 14 local elections. Honasan is an independent senatorial candidate, Beltran is a party-list nominee, while Trillanes, who is also in jail for being one of the leaders of the same mutiny, is seeking a Senate seat under the United Opposition.

it is a sad reality that in our country legal provisions were used to shield chosen few from prosecution and nailed the marginalized Pilipino to be persecuted unjustly.. what happened to Beltran and Trillanes can ce coin as legal trickery geared towards political harassment.

Eh, Ano pa nga ba. If that is not a corrupt justice system I don’t know what is. Its time to overhaul the entire corrupt justice system. The filipino people deserve better. I’ll say, Kick them all out. And throw their ass in jail where they belong.

What kind of supreme court is that. They’re not doing their job they suppose too. The only reason Gringo, can post bail because he went to malacanyang palace and kiss her ass.
Beltran/Capt. Trillanes, Is not going to kiss anybody ass, Thats why they’re getting rotten in jail. Lets see what Gringo going to do to repay her. I’m pretty sure Gloria Arroyo, Want something in return. She didn’t let her corrupt cronies in the court house to let him post bail for nothing. That I know!!!

Yes, Tama ka! DOUBLE STANTDARD talaga. These three have the same offense. And why is it Gringo, Is out of bail. And not Beltran/Trillanes.
For one, Gringo went to malacanyang palace and kiss Gloria Arroyo, Ass! Siguro perfume and ass niya. Kaya ganoon.
Beltran/Capt. Trillanes, Well not kiss ass. Thats why they’re still getting rotten in jail. Ang mali iyon mga judges. If they’re not corrupt why is it they’re letting Gloria Arroyo, To use them. Why they’re not doing their job they suppose too. I’ll say, Its time to overhaul the entire corrupt justice system. Its time to overhaul the entire government offices. This is not the type of people we want to set in any government offices. We need somebody who can do their job they suppose to. If we want a better philippines. Get rid of all the crooks and throw their ass in jail where they belong. I’D MAD AS HELL.
