‘THEY DON'T LOOK ANYTHING LIKE CORNED BEEF’
Forensic pathologist Dr. Raquel Fortun on Thursday called out people on social media naming those killed in gunfire as "corned beef," saying that they "don't look anything like corned beef."
"They don't look anything like corned beef. Take it from me, because I see a lot of dead bodies. You know what they look like? Tao. People. People with injuries, people who were killed," Fortun said.
"Paulit-ulit na lang na nangyayari ito sa bansa, so please step up. Everybody step up. Nakakahiya naman tayo," she added.
This comes after people on social media clamor over the killings of the 19 people in Toboso, Negros Occidental, calling the victims "corned beef" over linking them to members of the New People's Army, or NPA. (Video by Mark Ernest Villeza/The Philippine STAR)

Forty-six years ago today, tribal leader Macli-ing Dulag was murdered by government soldiers for leading the struggle against the World Bank-funded Chico Dam project under the regime of strongman Ferdinand Marcos.
Every April 24 since 1985, Cordillerans mark People’s Day to honor Macli-ing.

Our daughter, Rachel Corrie, was killed in 2003 in Gaza, while trying to protect a Palestinian home facing illegal destruction by the Israeli military. She was 23 years old. The massive, armored Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer that crushed her was operated by two Israeli soldiers and manufactured in the United States. It was the same type of militarized bulldozer that US presidents from George W. Bush through to Donald Trump have delivered to Israel.
Today, as the destruction of Palestinian homes has only become more commonplace, not to mention the horror of Israel’s genocide, Senator Bernie Sanders will force a vote in the Senate to try to end this cycle of death by banning the transfer of D-9 bulldozers to Israel. We hope he will not take this stand alone.
No policy can bring back those taken from us by these actions—children and other loved ones. But the Senate now has an opportunity to honor the memories of our daughter, other Americans, and thousands of Palestinian civilians killed, and to show that their deaths, and all the destruction, will no longer be condoned and funded. We hope those elected to represent us, the American people, understand the message that voting to block these D-9 bulldozers will send. This will not be a symbolic gesture, but a concrete step toward the protection of human life.
