“Sige okay
lang sa akin, sige i- junk ninyo, gusto ninyo i-junk? Sige junk ninyo. Kapag
kayo naging biktima ng terorista, kapag sumabog ang bomba diyan, may namatay sa
inyo mga mahal sa buhay ninyo o kayo mismo huwag ninyo sisihin ang gobyerno na
hindi gumagawa ng paraan para mahinto ang terrorism, para masawata ang
terrorism,” Senator Ronald dela Rosa said in an exclusive interview with dzBB
“Gusto ninyo ng another Marawi siege? Go ahead. Gusto ninyo ng another
Zamboanga siege? Go ahead. Gusto ninyo ng bombing kaliwa, kanan? Go ahead,
i-junk natin ito basta huwag ninyo sisihin ang gobyerno kapag nagkaletse letse
sa terrorism dito,” Senator dela Rosa added.
“Itong Anti-Terror Bill na ito ay kung ikaw ay law abiding citizen at
ayaw na ayaw mo ng terorismo you will rejoice when this bill is signed into law
pero kung ikaw terorista o kaya ay supporter ng mga terorista, dapat matakot ka
sa batas na ito,” he said.
The former PNP chief urges all oppositors to read the law first before
making judgment.
“Basahin niyo ‘yung batas. Kung mabasa niyo ‘yun mawawala ‘yung
ambiguity, mawawala ‘yung pag-dadalawang isip ninyo. Takot niyo mawawala,” he
said.
“Huwag kayong makikinig diyan sa mga nagbibigay ng disinformation.
Basahin ninyo ang batas. Alam ko grabe ang disinformation na ginagawa dito,
lalo na mga taga-kaliwa, dahil alam nila na tatamaan ang NPA sa batas na ito,”
he added
He also
clarified that under the proposed measure activism is not terrorism. “Klaro e
terrorism does not include advocacy, protest, dissent, stoppage of work, mass
or industrial actions and other similar exercises of civil and political
rights,” he explained.
