Bullshits and Lies

Let me be quick. You know, I have colds and this gets the hell out of me. But my effin' mind really likes playing tricks with me everytime so I need to get this done for if not, it will all be forever gone.

One thing, whether Corona is guilty or not, your opinion DOES NOT COUNT, people.

I've been hearing alot of clamours and everyone seems so into this issue. Most of us were tweeting, posting status and even blogging (like what I am doing now) about the ongoing impeachment trial of the Highest Justice in the land, Chief Justice Renato Corona. But do all of these count? NO.

Though your status receives a thousand or even a million likes (which I doubt) or your tweet gets retweeted by, like, a thousand of twitter addicts, YOUR OPINION STAYS JUST YOUR OPINION. It won't matter. No, not until you become one of the senator judges. So what's the point of fighting your opinion to death with your electronic friends in facebook and twitter?

I'm not saying we should just ignore this thang. You know it's kindasorta important for us, Filipino people. But for crying out loud, arguing with other people won't actually do you any good. Yeah, we all have that little devil in us who always think superior so it's just normal for us to rant and act like, "Hey, I know this and that and those and everything." but people, it ain't helping. 

We talk and talk and talk about the trial without even having any knowledge about it. I mean, yeah, maybe we watch it everyday on news channels but hey! Do you really understand what those legal terms meant and what these counsels are saying? Do you even know any of the procedures and technicalities about impeachment? I, myself, don't know much about it and this devil inside me is trying to act like a bitch and talking like a genius now but actually, most of us just base our opinion from others' opinion, from the opinions we hear from those professors we see on TV, from the news anchors' points of view, from Corona himself, from the senators, the prosecutors and the others. Because... no matter how difficult it may be for us to admit, WE KNOW THAT WE ACTUALLY KNOW NOTHING.

What if this whole thang was just a scheme directed by someone powerful? What if Corona is really not guilty? What if the illness was just a drama? What if the prosecution panel was just making up stories? What if the defense knows Corona is really hiding something and has done something wrong? We don't know.

Those evidences could be fake. Those answers could be just really well thought of to sound true and believable. You know, all the while, we could be just victims of a perfectly orchestrated stage drama and we're all so affected and so interested about it while the master of the scheme lies laughing at us because we easily bought what they fed us.

Those professors being interviewed might know the technicalities, those lawyers might know the procedures and the laws but no one from these people really knows what's behind everything. No one from these clever people actually knows what happened at the filing of impeachment, who's behind it, and whoever is telling the truth.

These could be all mere bullshits and lies and we're so engrossed spitting out opinions we're not actually sure where the hell came from.

Bottomline is... People, it's the senator judges' duty and responsibility to decide whether Corona will be convicted or acquitted, your opinion won't be heard inside the impeachment court, why not just shut your silly mouths up and let them do their jobs? 

If 16 senate judges cast their votes for him to be put behind bars, then good for those who have already convicted him. If not then, I think, it would be alot better for us. I'm no pro nor anti. I just don't want any connivance happening among the three branches and more... an indirect tyranny under a lame president. That’d be a complete curse.

So, with everything said, I guess I should be getting some rest now ‘coz I’m already running out of voice (weird but that’s my stress indicator.) So yeah, I’m saying I’m stressed. So there. Just leave the trial at peace, people and make peace with your Facebook friends and Twitter followers :D
