August 23 Hostage Taking

Ok, so this will be another serious post. I'm gonna talk about the hostage taking that happened yesterday in Quirino Grandstand. First of all, HOW EMBARRASSING IS THIS?
An ex-cop named Rolando Mendoza (fired because of drug-related issues) thought he could get his job back by starting a hostage with Hong Kong tourists. Luckily, some people were freed at various times. Even the bus driver (Filipino) managed to escape. How serious is this? We were on BBC, CNN, and it was a Trending Topic on Twitter!

That right there, is the bus where Rolando Mendoza was in when the hostage happened. According to Joseph Tung, the people in the bus were people aged between 4 and 72. They were scheduled for a 3-day tour with Hong Thai travel, and were set to leave earlier that day. Now thanks to Mendoza, for sure, they won't be coming back here. How is this going to affect our country? The tourism level will totally go down. People would be scared to go to our country.

Like... BANDS! THINK OF THE BANDS WHO WON'T GO HERE JUST BECAUSE OF THAT HOSTAGE! I HATE MENDOZA.

At the end of the day, 7 Hong Kong tourists were killed. Just this morning, 9 were confirmed dead.
My complaints go to the PNP and the SWAT. Yes, they tried to do something to end the hostage. Actually, someone shot Mendoza in the head. Good, he deserves it.
A very painful, bloody death. He deserves to die in a fire... alone. Okay,  let's pretend I never said that :))

Anyway, about the SWAT who came later that day. Why the heck would they just stay outside the bus? WHY CAN'T THEY JUST GO IN, THEN *POOF* HOSTAGE IS OVER? I guess not.

SWAT - Sana Wag Akong Tamaan
Come on! When you die from that, you die for your country!
The hostage started around 9:30am to around 8:30-9pm. Think of the people who are scared to death inside that bus. Think of them, scared to death, for almost 12 freakin' hours.

Anyway, did you see that dead body near the bus door? Yes? No? Well, if you did, that was Rolando Mendoza's body. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA >:)
Well, some people are now ashamed to be Filipino. I'm not.
I'm ashamed that someone like Rolando Mendoza is a Filipino.
After the hostage, I THANKED GOD THAT THERE WERE SURVIVORS! Yes, there were survivors, but think of how this event will haunt them for the rest of their lives! It would be horrible if you're one of the tourists, and you look back on this event. Now, the way they see our country is screwed up.

If only... if only Kris Aquino was there. All of the attention would go to her!
I'm kidding.

Okay, this ends my blog for today. I will probably be back this afternoon to post about something else. SORRY, I HAZ NO GIF RIGHT NOW.

God Bless the survivors. God Bless the family of the people who died. God Bless the Philippines.
