Political Killings


When I reached the apartment last night, i felt so sad and helpless and hopeless after reading my mom's text message." What is the difference between Egg and Balut?" With this she reminded me of a Man who bravely stood up and spoke in front of hundreds of people gathered last Saturday night, May 8, 2010 in the plaza of Tacurong City to witness and show support to the "meeting de avanci" of one of the political party seeking for the different local positions. ." What is the difference between Egg and Balut?" sounds funny yet resulted yesterday to an ambush and caused a bloody death of one Man and put the life of his child in danger, a man who luckily won and ranked 3rd as Board Member in the Province of Sultan Kudarat. ." What is the difference between Egg and Balut?"this statement did not only caused the sudden death of one man who seek for nothing but fair and Christ like governance in all the constituents of the Province, but brought fear to the many as well. ." What is the difference between Egg and Balut?"a statement which was shouted out loud by a Man whose intention was to awaken both Christians and Muslims of the reality that is currently happening in the province." What is the difference between Egg and Balut?" might have caused our laughters few days ago, but now caused the heartbreak of his love ones he left behind. When will this political killings end? Will justice be served to this man after justice denied and justice delayed for the many other victims of political killings? I hope that the life of this man fighting for the common good of thousands of people will not be buried in death forever.
