I'm convinced this woman should never be underestimated. What a double-edged sword of a question.
A yes answer would essentially contain an admission of guilt, a no answer would destroy what seems to be the defense's entire stance based on that 5 min speech.
As someone who has spent three decades advocating for children, I find it deeply troubling that his first instinct is to make younger children criminally liable rather than address the failures that allowed this tragedy to happen in the first place.
Three children are dead.
The question is not why a 10-year-old should be punished.
The question is why minors have access to firearms.
The question is why violence continues to find its way into our schools.
The question is why our education, mental health, social welfare, and law enforcement systems repeatedly fail children before a crime is ever committed.
Real leadership requires more than reacting to headlines.
It requires understanding the problem.
Lowering the age of criminal responsibility may generate applause. It may generate media attention. But there is little evidence that it addresses the root causes of youth violence.
Children who commit serious crimes must be held accountable. But accountability should not become a substitute for prevention.
A senator’s responsibility is not merely to propose the harshest response. It is to propose the most effective one.
I have worked with vulnerable children for most of my adult life. Many have been abused, neglected, abandoned, exploited, or exposed to violence long before they ever entered conflict with the law.
It is easy to appear tough on children.
It is much harder to confront the adult failures that create these tragedies.
Before Senator Padilla asks Congress to treat younger children as criminals, perhaps he should explain why government has failed to protect them as children in the first place.
and he was right. people have now become so desensitized to all the killings that some disgusting freaks even praise the government for murdering its own people and make jokes about these deaths.
Eleven of the 13 senators behind Monday's Senate coup are facing active or unresolved investigations.
Can a chamber hounded by accountability questions truly hold one of the country’s most powerful officials to account?

The change comes from experts that say the old name was misleading, stating that it inaccurately suggested ovarian cysts as a defining feature.
‘WALANG HONOR, WALANG BAYAN, WALANG HIYA’
LOOK: Farmer advocate Chef Waya Araos-Wijangco expresses frustration over the abrupt cancellation of a Senate agriculture hearing on Tuesday, May 12, leaving farmers who traveled to Manila to share their struggles unheard.
“The senators have shown us clearly who they represent: themselves, their dynasties, their ambitions, their interests,” Araos-Wijangco said.
Sen. Kiko Pangilinan apologizes for the postponement, citing the Senate’s committee reorganization, and vows to continue pushing for the welfare of farmers and fisherfolk.
“The Senate reorganization is a temporary setback. It will not in any way dampen our resolve to fight for our farmers and fisherfolk and the agri sector,” Pangilinan wrote. | 📷: Araos-Wijangco/Facebook via Reymond Salgan, https://t.co/E0yNJSWpUY trainee
