massacre in Maguindanao

Cebu, Philippines

It's been awhile the massacre happened and more than 30 people was killed, women were raped, others beheaded and all of them were buried like a garbage.Is it because of the upcoming elections that make the politicians to be cruel to their fellow countrymen? They can certainly make outrageous and horrifying activities just to eradicate their running mate. Do they have conscience?i doubt they do. I wonder if that would make them happy sitting in a position that they know that its not a fair square. It's awful to know that we are in a democratic country yet the journalist were criticized of what they do and i believe that journalist is doing their job to deliver us the truth, and what's happening to our surroundings.

What they did is pure evil. i cant imagine why these people have the courage to kill more than 50 persons even pregnant women and children just for the sake of power and wealth. What do they have in there minds? I don't think that they have conscience and i belive that the mastermind in all of this was a total insane to kill for power. Greediness is really next to evil, I just hope that these poor people will have justice and I hope that politics will open there eyes about this terrible murder and not to take it as an opportunity like Gloria did.

Don't expect that they will consider anybody if they're already EVIL within themselves. They don't know what's best for others only BEST for them.

Yes it is rather unbelievable that there are still people in power that are as hungry as they are. It is very obvious that they are politically motivated since almost all of the victims were filing COCs to try their luck against the ruling family. They were trying to hide the evidences but unfortunately they killed too many of them and hiding them would be next to impossible already. What is even more worst is that there are many innocent lives involve, they were just in the place when the incident happened and they were included to hide the evidence further.

Yes, I agree. This is the result of cruelty in the position because they can freely corrupt. Hoping that this coming election will be done smoothly without any traces of fraud since we will be using an automated system.

I find it amusing that the mastermind of this brutality, who people think is fearless and ruthless, is afraid of ghosts. How pathetic! Well, dont worry, by the time you die, you'll get to meet those people you had killed, and you'll be looking up at them, while your soul is being consumed by eternal flame. We're not immortal you know, sucks aint it?

this is already a heinous crime and should not be ignored just like what the president is doing. it has been aa very controversial media happening that is already well known to all parts of the world. now not only philippines is well known because of manny pacqiao but now, also because of the filipino killing media people. it really affects many factors all over the world.i just hope that each of those people who were affected because of this will be given justice. so help us God!

57 people were killed, i have known muslim people respected women a lot but in this case they were brutally murdered. Vice mayor mangudadatu wife was shot in the face at closed ranged. declaring martial law on maguindanao is unconstitutional maybe GMA is hiding something in there. as what we have read in the newspaper or here in the internet... election ballot boxes were also dugged up in an area of the ampatuans. i cant imagine the late FPJ to garner zero votes in that area....
