hindi naman, at kailanman hindi, magiging black and white ang batas at ang mismong hustisiya. viewing things dichotomously would only make things worse than it already is.
i will never stop saying that education crisis and poverty should be the top priority in order for us to handle all the subsequent issues that we have in the country.
and our justice/legal system should be rehabilitative rather than punitive.
because misconduct and violence answered or “solved” through another violence doesn’t make sense.
same reason why juvenile justice shouldn’t be abandoned and why these cases should be handled differently than criminal offenses committed by legal aged citizens.
