Peaceful solutions don’t usually work in the Philippines. Take squatting for example. The land owner kindly asks the squatter to leave (while even dangling some P30K pocket money). The squatter shows the land owner the finger and cries out against the violation of his rights. CHR comes in to remind the land owner that the 1987…
Who owns the concept of “human rights”? Is it the United Nations? Is it the Commission on Human Rights (CHR)? Is it Chito Gascon? Is it the Yellowtards?
