An Invitation to Anarchy and Chaos!

The Aquino Administration, especially as regards its Secretary of Justice, is composed of a bunch of Delinquents and Truants.

When they had the time, they did not do their homework and study. When the time came to recite and/or pass the home work or seat work or test or quiz, they were “bokya,” “nada,” “wala,” zero! They had to resort to cheating and lying.

Last week, we asked: “Who is responsible for allowing the Arroyos to legally fly the coop?”

Not based on the Constitution
With all the intelligence, investigative and prosecutorial resources at the disposal of the Executive Branch, they have not yet, as of press time, filed a single criminal case before the courts against GMA or Mike Tuason Arroyo.

It is as though the Rumors and Suspicions of an “Aquinorroyo*" rather than a “Villarroyo” conspiracy in the last May 10, 2010 Presidential Elections are true.

This is one of the allegations of Solidarity 4 Sovereignty, an independent organization that has been consistently questioning the results of the last elections for the past year and a half.

On the other hand, still another organization, the “Tanggulang Demokrasiya,” recently made a presentation at the Fernandina Media Forum, showing that Noynoy’s election was not based on the Constitution and Election Laws and Regulations.

According to them, P-Noy is not a “de Jure” but rather, only a “de facto” President.

Challenged by ‘Who?’
On Tuesday night, the Aquino Administration stole a page from the Marcos Dictatorship (A clumsy one at that).

P-Noy and his unconfirmed Secretary of Justice Leila de Lima refused to follow and honor the Temporary Restraining Order handed down by the Supreme Court late last Tuesday afternoon.

The Department of Justice through the Bureau of Immigration has been violating the Bill of Rights as enshrined in our 1987 Constitution.

A mere DOJ memorandum circular without the force or mandate of a law, has been restricting the Right to Travel of Citizens through a so called “Watch List” rather than the legal “Hold Departure Order” that should be issued by the Courts.

Unfortunately, this was challenged by of all people, the Arroyos.

OK to Assert
Many are now saying that if only it, he, she or they were not the Arroyos, it would be OK to assert the Constitutional Right to Travel.

However, according to them, the Arroyos are not ordinary people, as though there is such an exception in the Bill of Rights.

If we want to reduce the argument “Ad absurdum,” one can say that Ninoy was not an ordinary person and so it was OK to kill him on Sunday, August 21, 1983.

An argument can always be invented as to the “Public Interest…"

Yes, everybody, except the fiscals and prosecutors who are supposed to file the criminal cases, know that the Arroyos are Plunderers, “Magnanakaws,” Grafters and Criminals.

Then, go ahead and file the cases before the Courts.

Hypothetically…
P-Noy and De Lima have been in office for sixteen and a half months.

How many months has Merceditas Gutierrez been out and Carpio-Morales been in at the Office of the Ombudsman?

How many months have passed since the Truth Commission has been thrown out? Who wrote the defective Executive Order in the first place?

Let us compare the Arroyos case with a different kind of hypothetical case.

Instead of a privileged, former “ruling” couple, let us consider a community of squatters that are about to be evicted.

Like the couple, whom everybody knows were guilty of plunder and more, everybody knows that these are squatters.

They illegally built their houses without permission on private land.

They also did not secure building permits from the LGU before they built their illegal structures.

Demolition Day
One day, the owner of the land believes that he has complied with all the legal requirements and has prepared a demolition team to demolish the illegal structures and eject the squatters.

Then, at the last minute, a court issues a TRO against the demolition and ejection and the TRO is served by the Court’s Sheriff.

Can the landowner hide from the Sheriff serving the TRO and eject the squatters between 5 pm and 8 am.

This was what De Lima did when the DOJ refused to be served the Supreme Court’s TRO after 5 pm, on Tuesday, last week.

They argued as though the Constitution and its Bill of Rights may sleep after office hours and be effective only starting at the usual start of office hours at 8 am.

Then, can and may the landowner refuse to obey the TRO until he has filed a Motion for Reconsideration against the TRO?

In the meanwhile, may he proceed to demolish the squatters’ structures, eject them and fence off his cleared property?

Chaos will ensue.

Anarchy and Chaos
The squatters will have no choice but to take the law into their hands and physically resist.

If they lose, then they will take their battle elsewhere in the physical rather than the legal field.

The example given by De Lima in not obeying the Supreme Court is a good excuse for anyone who wants to disobey the orders of the Executive Branch.

“Wala nang ‘No Wang Wang, No Counterflow!’” To each his own!

Don’t wait for the Red light to turn Green! Don’t pay Taxes!

P-Noy and De Lima don’t deserve our respect and obedience!

Simple – “Do Unto Others as You Would Like Others Do Unto You!” “Di ba?”

Do you want Anarchy and Chaos?

What do we do, if we don’t want those to happen?

File contempt proceedings against de Lima and all those who disobeyed the TRO before the Supreme Court.

Contempt for De Lima
According to the Court Administrator and Spokesman Midas Marquez, De Lima may be fined a maximum of P30,000 and imprisoned for a maximum of six months.

Those should not be enough.

If the Arroyos could afford the two-million-peso bond or whatever, P-Noy can afford to pay the fine for De Lima.

In the same way, since De Lima is so eager to get free publicity and run for the Senate, imprisonment will not be bad enough for her.

She can continue to work as the DOJ Secretary while serving a Contempt sentence.

She should be suspended from the bar. That way, she will automatically lose her job as DOJ Secretary because she will lose her principal qualification.

Supreme Court President
If the Supreme Court saw it fit to suspend Atty. Alan Paguia for more than a half a dozen years from the bar, De Lima deserves more.

Atty. Alan Paguia refused to accept the wrong and unconstitutional decision of the Davide Supreme Court based on the theory that President Joseph “Erap” Estrada had “constructively” resigned on Saturday, January 20, 2001.

Therefore, GMA was no longer just the “Acting President.”

Atty. Paguia had no power to thwart the Supreme Court’s decision.

De Lima disobeyed the Supreme Court and did irreparable harm to the Constitutional Rights of the Private Parties and public harm by being the example of Anarchy and Chaos in Society.
