Had Pat ordered the AFP/PNP to back off in the name of mediation/conciliation there wouldnt have been any bloodshed. Wala sanang namatay. My dear countrymen, the blood of our seven massacred fellow workers are not in the hands of Cory not even in the hands of the AFP/PNP but in the hands of Pat.
Was she or was she not aware of the existence of Article 211? She is not a lawyer. Her Undersecretary for Labor Relations Manuel Imson is also not a lawyer. Can this be a pure and simple question of incompetence or gross ignorance of the law on their part? In the meantime, I think the aggrieved families and victims of the Luisita massacre are barking up the wrong tree. Si Pat ang tahulan nyo hindi si Cory!
Itanong nyo kay Governor Apeng Yap. Naging mainit din ang strike sa Philippine Rabbit noong isang taon. Mabuti na lang di hawak ni Pat ang kasong iyan. Naging tangan yan ng NLRC noong ako pa ang Chairman. May bantang pasasabugin ng union ang mga bus ng Philippine Rabbit. Sa halip na nagtawag tayo ng mga sundalot pulis, personal na nag-mediation kaming dalawa ni Governor Yap at naayos yang kasong iyan na ni buhok ng isang manggagawa ay di nabakli. Considering that Pat is an alter ego of GMA. The blood of the dead Luisita workers are not only in the hands of Pat but in the hands of GMA as well.
