ED RENZO LANDICHO Philippine election is fast approaching but one presidential candidate stands out the most in polls,surveys, and in sociopolitical issues and that presidential candidate is none other than Mayor Rodrigo Duterte. He is being criticized by human rights groups for tolerating extrajudicial killings and in 2015, Duterte confirmed his links to extrajudicial killings in Davao, and warned that if elected president he may kill up to 100,000 criminals. Are there rights being violated? Yes, because a person is assumed innocent until proven guilty by the court and should undergo due process and this clearly violates the 1987 Constitution Article 3 Sections 1, 14 (1 and 2) because they are deprived the right to due process and the right of presumption of innocence. In the case of Jaypee Larosa (back in 2008) wherein it is stated that he was killed by the death squad even if he wasn’t connected to any illegal activities also, an eyewitness said that one of the gunman said “Son of a bitch, this is not the one”, the case of Jaypee Larosa proved that the system of Duterte is unjust and illegitimate. Every human being deserves to live as human and be able to self actualize while free from oppression, threats, and death and not have to live like an animal who is in constant fear for its life, freedom and security. Is it legitimate? No, even if a person is accountable of any illegal activity his/her rights must be protected and it is the role of the government to protect the rights of its citizens and also to uphold the law. There is a social contract that exist between the government and of its citizens; wherein the citizens pay taxes and in return the government gives them a better life and security, however, people cannot cooperate unless there is trust; this requires a guarantee that all members of society will work within the agreed upon “rules” thus the need for a government to enforce behaviors and punish in a justifiable manner. In this issue, trust between the citizens and the government is threatened because the government is not upholding the law and not protecting the basic rights of its citizens. Human beings, above their physical needs, have metaphysical needs which they strive to fulfill. It is a search for meaning, a search to find authenticity in oneself and one’s significance on this earth, to realize one’s full potential, and to pursue activities and relationships which allow for true happiness and fulfillment. To be human is to seek meaning in everything, and to condemn someone to a life of meaninglessness is to condemn them to a spiritual death. All of us deserve the opportunity to pursue happiness in the form of self-actualization. The role of the government is to value the intrinsic worth of life and help its citizens to self-actualize. However, the methods of Mayor Duterte threatens and take away the lives of its citizens without proper due process of the law. Davao City is named as one of the safest place in the world but with the prevalent extrajudicial killings, is Davao city really safe? You can die anytime in Davao.

When the USSC ordered in favor of same-sex marriage it sparked discourse not only to the United States but also in the Philippines. It raised a question why is same-sex marriage not legal in the Philippines and why is the state depriving homosexuals of the right that heterosexuals are happily benefiting? I’m going to talk about two things. First, why is the state denying homosexuals the right to marry wherein fact Article 3 of the constitution states that no person shall be denied the equal protection of the laws. Second, denying homosexuals the right to marry is denying them their right to security. The main reason why the state is denying homosexuals the right to marry is because the Philippines is a religious and conservative country, the typical notion that homosexuals are 2nd class citizens is old but in the Philippines people still tend to subscribe to that idea, even though the constitution states that their should be a separation between the church and the state it seems that the church still has a big influence on the law making body in the Philippines. The argument of the other side is that same-sex marriage is immoral, however this shouldn’t be the case because morals are relative, in the principle of cultural relativism, what may be moral to you might not be moral for others; so, it is not justified to deprive homosexuals the right to marry just because the church or the majority thinks it’s immoral. Denying them the right to marry is denying them the right to security. Marriage has many benefits including visiting hours, inheritance, burial, medical benefits and other benefits. For example when two homosexuals decided to build a restaurant and the other one dies the one cannot get 50% of the share of that business simply because they are not married. It is unfair not getting the the things you worked hard simply because the system does not allow you to. The problem here is homosexuals are deprived with the right that they “payed” for by paying taxes and by giving their sovereignty to the state. In an ideal society people should get their rights without having to bargain for it or fight for it in rallies, but we have to live in a reality in which these kinds of thing don’t necessarily happen. Now the question is how will the LGBT community get their rights in the end of the day? They need to challenge the system through the state because it is the state that failed them and the only way to succeed is through the state. Yes, there are structural limitations but what we have to understand about the incentives of states is that they are not going to provide just an equal opportunities and in order for the LGBT to succeed and get there rights they have to challenge the systematically oppressive system because fighting against an oppressive system is what will push the government to change the system and make reforms. Even though it is kind of unfair to put the burden on the marginalized to prove themselves in an oppressive system they need to continue to fight for their rights in order for them to break the glass barrier just like what the feminism movement did; they did not stop fighting for their right and they did not stop challenging the system and because of that they earned their right to education, the right to vote and many other rights. #LoveWins: Not yet, challenge the system first.
