Quick shoutout to this guy who โ back in June 2024 when InsiderPH was three weeks old โ opened our eyes to what GCash was really worth. I was incredulous back then. But no longer. Thank you, Nicky Franco. Mabuhay ka!
Given that every generation is afflicted with skepticism about the younger set (or what sociologists call "juvenoia" โ "these kids nowadays" syndrome), I wonder what kind of putdown Gen Zs will slap on Gen Alpha when the time comes.
There's a more efficient way: legislate increased/weightier penalties (and improve enforcement of the law, it goes without saying) for adults whose legally owned firearms are used by another party in a crime, regardless of whether the perpetrator is a minor or not... and regardless of whether the firearms are secured or not.
If you store it in a secure place (even a steel safe) that is broken into, it should be on you, the owner.
DILG SEEKS IRR CHANGE TO ALLOW PNP HOME INSPECTIONS OF GUN OWNERS
WATCH: Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla told House lawmakers during deliberations on the DILGโs proposed 2027 budget that the department is seeking to revise the implementing rules and regulations of a law governing firearms to allow the Philippine National Police (PNP) to inspect how licensed gun owners secure their firearms at home.
Remulla said the proposal came after authorities found that the firearms used in the Tacloban and Zamboanga school shootings were not properly secured.
He said gun owners would be informed ahead of the inspections, which would focus on how firearms are stored. | Sophia Sioco
