In fairness to MP, I also do not like how some of the LGBT had reacted on the situation (an “OA”ness at its best). They’re also nothing but sanctimonious hypocrites who judged a person without acknowledging their own sins.

 

Bigotry begets bigotry

 

For once, let’s define the term bigotry as an intolerance toward those who hold different opinions from oneself.

 

So based on that, both MP and his bashers (especially some of the LGBT ones) are guilty for that matter.

 

And I believe that what Manny had been said was based on opinion and if anyone who couldn’t handle other’s opinion should also be called (small-minded) bigots. .

 

But then again, MP is the triggering factor here. Who could you blame then? The MP himself or his bashers? Or was it the media?

I think it's the media.

 

Somebody probably got him into ambush interview, asked a controversial question about same sex marriage, and MP obliged in saying his opinion without weighing how he should say it.

 

Like Manny, I, too, have strong opinion about same sex relationships. I can always speak my mind without considering if I offend anybody.

 

But Manny has to be more careful because he has lucrative product endorsement contracts to protect, and a political campaign to run.

 

Lucky for him Mommy Dionisia will always be there to defend him. :D :D :D

Kasama ba dyan ang mas masahol pa sa hayop?

Actually, there is a twisting of meanings there.

 

"Masahol pa sa hayop" translates to "worse than animals".

 

But Manny said animals do not practice unnatural same-sex intercourse. He was actually implying that animals are BETTER because they instinctively know what is natural vs. unnatural behavior.

 

He should have said, "Mas mabuti pa ang hayop."

 

I have not read about his exact words. Did the statement "masahol pa sa hayop" come from him, or was it imputed to him?

Ira Panganiban, former Radio-TV reporter and currently Editor-in-chief of Wheels Philippines Magazine, wrote this open letter addressed to the LGBT community in defense of Pacquiao:

 

"...Dear LGBT Community,

 

Yes I understand your concern. And yes it was a bit insensitive of Manny Pacquiao to have said what he said about gays being worse than animals.

 

But see, he was asked his opinion in public television. It’s not as if Pacquiao was walking around preaching and telling people how to act and what to do. Manny was never been the kind to dictate to people how to be.

 

Let’s put things into perspective before you hang the dude. Perez Hilton, a USA based blogger asked Pacquiao what his stand on same sex marriage was. Pacquiao gave his opinion.

 

Yes it may have hurt, but it was his opinion. When people called him names and accused him bad things, no one heard Pacquiao cry foul. He took it like a man that he was and moved on to be a world champion.

 

When the same members of the gay community made fun of him and his mother, Pacquiao took it all in stride. When people blast him for his intelligence, the champ did not get mad, when they called him idiot, he just went on and won championships.

 

Now that the gay community gets in the receiving end, they cry like little babies condemning him to high heavens. Guess what the definition of a “bigot” is? Here, let me tell you, “bigot – a person who has no tolerance for the belief and opinion of others and forces their opinion on others.”

 

Now, who is the bigot? Who cannot take the opinion of others and forces their belief on him? Take a wild guess.

 

Bestest to all,

 

Not A Gay Hater Me..."

I don't understand kung bakit mas issue tong statement ni Pacquiao? Dahil nag react sila Boy (pero bakla) Abunda at Kabayo?

 

Truth be told, the LGBT community is asking for acceptance? Right? How can the country embrace their culture, if they cannot accept who they really are in the first place? Reality is, lalake sila pinanganak, di nila matanggap yun at gusto nila maging girl at may mga gender change ek ek pa at cross dressing. Seriously, of all people to complain about not being accepted by the rest of the community, sila dapat makaintindi dahil sila mismo di nila matanggap na pinanganak sila as a gender na di nila gusto. Hypocrisy at it's finest.

 

Also, same sex marriage pinaglalaban nila? Ano naman mapapala ng Pinas jan? Sila sila lang (LGBT community) matutuwa at mag bebenefit jan. Mas madami problema bansa natin tulad ng Traffic, ISIS sa Mindanao at kung ano-ano pa na mas may impact sa mga tao regardless of gender, age, lifestyle, social status or even civil status. The same sex marriage should be at the very bottom of the priority list.

 

Peace out!

I also don't agree on the same sex marriage. Ano ba mahihita nila diyan e kapirasong papel lang yan. Wala naman basbas ng simbahan. Its just a psyche thing na may taong nagkasal sa kanila. Kung magkahiwalay man sila may batas ba tayo para malaman paano hatiin properties nila?

 

Wrong choice of words lang talaga si Pacman lalo na election period pa naman, pwede siyang gantihan by not voting for him. It also shows his intelligence. Mababa talaga, marunong ba siya mag draft ng mga batas na gusto niya mangyari? He can be like Bill Gates now, helping lots of people by just being in the private sector.

Im with you guys upstairs, If you truly want full acceptance, you should give acceptance too. You should accept that everything has its limitation. One thing the LGBT should be appreciative of its that compared to other societies Philppines is a safe haven for them. They can cross dress in public, they have representation sa party list, they can vote, we allow business establishments that cater for them (i.e. comedy bars, gay bars etc.). Heck you can even be on TV and be an influential media figure. You can be in showbiz and make money. Tapos si Boy Abunda kung makapagsalita akala mo naman sobrang aping api na mga bakla sa pilipinas. Eh kung sa KSA yan kulong sila nyan pag nasuspetsahang bakla sila.

 

A lot of this stems kasi from not understanding the difference between sex and gender. You are free to embrace any Gender, but you can never change your sex. Kung lalake ka, lalake ka down to the last molecules. Therefore regardless of what gender you embrace you enjoy the same rights and are subjected to the same restrictions according to your sex. Hindi ko maintindihan kung ang iba sa kanila eh gusto pa yata ng courtesy lane para sa kanila. Di lang same sex marriage, pati hiwalay na CR daw dapat para igalang sila... like huh? Seriously?

 

Nung PMT and ROTC days ko, yung mga bakla magkakaisa yan. Susulatan yung Commandant para sila utility personel na lang. Ibig sabihin taga linis opisina, utusan mga opisyal. And I am like WTF? Ano ito? Eh samantalang yun iba nga na mas payat pa sa kanila, at me hika hindi naman nagrereklamo magpabilad sa araw at magpush up. Samantalang sila komo lang bakla eh me special exemption na?

 

Although to be fair, hindi rin naman lahat kasi ng nasa LGBT enthusiastic sa same sex marriage. Meron kasi na tanggap nila kung ano sila at ano yung limitation. Tanggap na sila din dapat makibagay sa lipunan at hindi lipunan lagi ibe-baby sila. Sabi nga ng boss ko noon na aminadong bakla, hindi nya daw maintindihan kung bakit kelangan magdamit babae, makakakuha din naman sila ng lalake kahit damit babae sila lol. One of the Gay people I have respect for is Ricky Reyes. And he accepts na hindi nya pwede i-enjoy and privileges na meron ang isang babae dahil di naman sya babae. Kahit sya mahilig mag-cross dress, pero sa business meetings, suot panlalake sya at lalake sya makipagusap. Sabi nya ang mga bakla dapat irespeto sarili nila at di umastang parang mga matsing sa hawla *ehem ehem vice ganda".

 

For that reason I will not support same sex marriage, pero, I wont stand opposed it either. If they pursue it and succeed, eh di congratulations sa kanila, live and let live tayo.

To be fair with Manny, hindi kasi pinalabas yun last part ng sinabi nya na he is not condemning gay people. And OA masyado speech ni Boy Abunda na parang aping api mga bakla sa pilipinas, eh sya nga mismo napakamaimpluwesyang mukha sa media. Aysus.

 

Pero talagang sablay dito si Manny, its really more of his fault. Ginawa nya na ito dati nung 2012. Alam naman nya na napakasenstive ng issue, hindi pa natuto. Yan tuloy, hindi lang pilipinas kundi buong mundo tinawag syang gago. Pero sya, nagsorry na naman, so patawarin na dapat.

 

Now as to him making a bill well its all really "common sense" as he puts it. 4 na beses lang pumasok sa session ng kamara, ang dami pang extra curricular activity. Pabyahe byahe pa yan abroad. Do you think he has the time to like sitdown, study laws, and how to make one? Hell no! Parang Lito Lapid at Tito Sotto yan. Maraming napapasang batas dahil lang kaya nila magbayad ng staff na marunong at masipag. Pero kung papansinin mo din yun quality ng batas na sinasubmit nila eh puro kababawan din naman. Maniniwala ka ba na ang isang tulad ni Lapid na aminadong di magaling magenglish eh makakadraft ng batas in english?

Kaya ang mga senador natin compare nung mga 60-70s' ay paurong sa quality. Wala nang magagaling na lawmakers and statesman na bago. Si Chiz magaling lang magsalita puro hangin lang naman. Yung mga iba puro angas at papansin lang,

I know this is not yet an issue here in the Philippines, but this is something I am very interested with.

 

The Dark (deep) web.

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/guides/z9j6nbk

 

The dark side of the internet where you will think guns for hire, weapons and drugs for sale are just petty crimes.

 

I knew someone who makes a living online and he discussed it to me. I did not take it seriously back then, I was thinking he may have watched too much conspiracy theory films or something.

 

Then the crush video of the 2 ladies killing a puppy by stomping on it came out around 2 years ago, I thought it may have been a coincidence. Then there was news I saw on tv regarding a body of a boy who was brutally tortured to the point that a screw was even placed on his head.

 

I was realizing what he discussed to me that these brutal crimes were not just crimes but also business. People really pay to see such absurd acts. What scares me the most is that these acts are done in third world contries like us were we do not have counter measures for such complex cyber crimes.

 

I guess its just me, but I am starting to believe that very nerdy coversion we had a few years back.

Dude, its actually a lot worse, read up on "red markets". I cannot go into details, since some of the things mentioned there would be topics that would get me banned, but lets just say that if you combine ISIS beheading vids and real life version of the Saw movies, it would still be "kid friendly" compared to what is going on in the dark web. Like "have a bucket handy cause you are gonna throw up and have nightmares later" kind of worse.

I still can't imagine how possible it is for anyone to commercialize anything that comes from outer space, more so in harvesting out of mining from those asteroids. At di pa issue kung paano ang business regulations huh.

 

Unless such articles are some kind of hoax. :rolleyes:

They are actually legit:

http://techcrunch.com/2015/07/09/the-potential-100-trillion-market-for-space-mining/

 

There are at least 2 companies, Deep Space Resources, and Planetary Resources that are backed by billionaires who are looking into it. Elon Musk's Space X is looking into it as well as a "sideline" once they get the ball rolling on the company's plan for Mars colonization.

 

Space companies seem to be popping up left and right and funded by billionaires.

During the 13th to 15th century, the superpowers of the era, Spain, Portugal, Holland, France and England are on a race to discover lands in the Far East. They claim exclusive economic rights to exploit the resources of the lands they discover.

 

We are now in similar situation where the superpowers of today, USA, China, Russia are claiming space bodies, planetary and lunar areas as their exclusive properties, just by mere fact that they "discovered" it and have sent their men or machines to land there or take fly-by pictures.

Malayong mangyari yan sa Pinas.

 

Pwede pa siguro maging imbakan tayo ng mga na-naminang produkto mula sa asteroids. Kung kakayanin lang ni Mar ang umepal sa kalawakan, tiyak nauna na yan sa kalawakan para hulihin ang mga asteroids (figuratively) at gumawa ng eksena syempre pa kasama nya ang sangkaterbang medya. :rolleyes:

 

Peace sa mga pro-Mar.

Malayo talaga para sa Pilipinas to lay claim on asteriods. We are not a Superpower. At least not yet.

Currently the race among superpowers is to explore and stake claim on something nearer to home -- the Lunar surface -- for future colonization and exploitation of its mineral wealth.

But that would take a very long time before it happens. Right now, metals and mineral ores are lying at our very doorstep -- at ocean bottoms. But we don't have the affordable technology yet to reach them.

This incident puzzles me.

 

The incident where an assistant manager (not sure of the position) in Solaire died inside one of their hotel rooms.

Ideally, the people that were with the victim is automatically considered persons of interest since they were there when the victim died.

 

What I don't understand is why they were not automatically placed into custody.

 

Kumbaga sa sasakyan pag nakasagasa ka at namatay yung biktima automatic kulong si driver. Eh eto may nafile na kaso na Murder pero asan na yung mga suspect?

 

Also, sabi nung imbestigador sa ABS CBN TV Patrol (sorry wala link, panood ko lang), maingat daw sila kasi sensitive yung case, I don't understand kung ano yung senstive dun, may namatay na taz pinoprotektahan nyo pa yung suspect. And then later on, naungkat na yung Ecstasy, na nag party pill daw yung victim at yung mga suspect so pinoprotektahan nila yung Solaire? na ayaw nila ma broadcast na yung mismo mga empleyado nila eh nag tatake ng Ecstasy? or siguro sobrang inis ko lang sa bagal at walang kwentang reaksyon ng mga Pulis Pasay???

 

Asan na yung mga suspect nyo na after 3 days wala padin sa custody nyo taz may kaso na wala padin yung mga kinasuhan. Nakakainis, ultimo pulis di alam dapat nila gawin.

 

Lahat sila naka Ecstasy, so whatever their statements are it does not matter dahil wala sila sa sarili nila. Parang pag lasing at naka disgraya ka automatic kasalanan mo. The medical result and CCTV footage says it all.

Pinatay yung girl otherwise humingi sana sila ng tulong pero hindi mukang itatakas pa nila yung katawan dahil nilabas sa room may takip pa yung mukha.

medyo nag lielow na nga ang issue.

 

On Topic:

Senate Blue Ribbon Committee on Money Laundering investigation commence today.

 

 

In this case I believe that the RCBC manager is part of the scheme. My mom was a bank exec and she understands the process. If the the receiving bank got notice to hold off the transfer how come the manager still allowed the transaction to push thru?
