Half our politicians will never let it happen, why? They’ll be the first it’ll be done to 😂
Omg yess 😂
Nah. Selective justice.
Big true...😂
Hahahah
Indeed
Before our country even impose death penalty, we need to make sure first that our judicial system is just, fair, reliable, and not inclined to favor the rich and the powerful which we all know is not the case.
Lol thats never gonna happen unless everyone cooperates.
Pag may death penalty we have to be careful you cant just pin point random people kailangan ng proper evidence
In a country like Malaysia, definitely ain't gonna happen. Even schools and landlords are racist here.
@@rizzzzzzz2580 hindi naman patay agad masusing talaga tinitignan yan mga ilang year pa yan bago maaprove ng death penalty pag wala talaga death na talaga
Hindi pa perpekto ang Justice system sa Pilipinas. Baka mga inosente lang ang mabibitay o d kaya mga mahihirap lang ang mabibitay.
Its so ironic how many sins are commited by the people who call themselves deeply religious.....
true.
Thats philippines in a nutshell
when you commit deep sins you must outwardly portray yourself as the absolute largest opposite. what is the best way to avoid ever being accused of being a sinner? be in a position of high power within a religious group.
I don't think any of them realize they are a Catholic/Christian or whatever you want to call them because they were cucked into that religion. It wasn't by choice, it was by massacre until the Filipino people subbitted.
You know, being religious doesn't mean you dont sin.
Many states in the USA still have the death penalty. It doesn't really stop people from committing crimes. No laws or punishments can really do that. Even when there were public hangings, people still committed crimes.
Lowering crime rates has less to do with punishment and more to do with access to education, jobs, food, housing, and mental health treatment.
Well holy hell. There's still rationality in the world.
I grew up poor, yet still better off than some around me. You learn from an early age what motivates people to commit crimes; Most of the time it's driven by not having options for employment or thinking there's nothing else out there for you.
For example; To a kid whose parents have dead-end jobs that pay minimum wage, and access to food is always an insecurity, selling drugs seems like an easy way to help mom and dad out and put food on the table. That kid isn't really thinking about the consequences or about going to jail; He's thinking he's helping his family and maybe will have access to brand name clothes and shoes so he can finally fit in with his friends.
But another kid that has access to after-school programs and summer job programs, he's not thinking about selling drugs. He already has options to help his family and mentors who help him think about the future (college, career, etc) instead of the here and now.
Punishment for crimes is not to prevent crime, its main purpose is to punish the offender for the benefit of the victim. Whether that is justice or revenge is subjective. But lets not pretend that in society, people who are found guilty of heinous crimes are sentenced to life in prison for some sort of higher ethics or virtue like crime prevention or justice. It is for the benefit of the rest of society and more specifically for the victim and their family. Serial killers, rapists, etc are beyond saving and all they'll do is rot in prison at the cost of the rest of the law abiding citizens who have to pay to have those prisoners housed and fed. Better to kill them and be done with it.
If the recitivism rate of a certain crime is high, how would death penalty in such a case *not* decrease crime. That people wouldnt commit crime due to the presence of death penalty is a strawman.
Most criminals that re-commit are doing so with crimes that are never punished by death; Theft, selling or taking drugs, etc. And unless they are a serial killer, most murderers don't keep murdering. It's usually a one time thing; trying to get rid of an ex, rage killing, etc.
Asian boss, can you ask the filipinos about their "Pinoy Pride?"
Indeed. It's so annoying. I saw on some youtube vids even the slightest mention of the philippines and every filipino be like "proud filipino here"
@@charlesmaersk5235 you're right! Its so annoying and irritating
that will be a great Topic...kinda sick and tired of it especially when there is a famous person who has Filipino blood
What's so annoying about it. That's how it is there. You can move on
There’s a lot of Filipinos in California and a lot of Californians on TH-cam
The country needs to create more opportunity, jobs, benefits and mental health services. Crimes always begins from the struggle and hardship in life.

The point of Death Penalty is to send fear to brutal criminals to re-think their actions. It's never meant to completely eradicate crimes. It's proposition is to reduce crime rates. Some people do not understand the concept of bringing it back. If you have death penalty. People will think it through to commit heavy crimes. Their courage to do bad things will be measured when death penalty is on the table.
brutal criminals are mentally insane, do you think they`ll fear the death?
Yo, have any of you heard about Chinese actress *Fan Bingbing's* disappearance?
Asian Boss should cover that, either in China or Hong Kong - very weird and interesting
What??? Where's my Fan Bingbing?
she got caught up in some tax evasion scandal this summer, disappeared from the public in late July, no social media updates in almost 2 months, and now people are really getting worried
people think she's under house arrest or something of that nature by the *CCP*
Its a double edged sword ⚔️ And thnx for pointing out my grammar mistake 👍
It's a doubled-edge sword.
double-edged sword lol
Death penalty is a must in a dying country
"Death penalty is okay. "
periodt.
nope
A friend once said to me:
"Punishing an irredeemable person stands to gain benefit to no one if they're in a place where they can't do any more harm than they already have.
To take it further is to simply engage in vengeance."
There's absolutely no benefit gained from killing a murderer other than the sense of closure or justification
(and if that should be the case, it'll be better to let the family decide rather than the authorities).

As a Filipino, I disagree with the reimposition of the death penalty because it fails to consider its irreversible nature and that human justice is susceptible to human failure. Even in a developed justice system, judges might have a wrongful evaluation, and innocent people can be executed. What more in a flawed justice system? Regarding the use of illegal drugs, the government should see this problem as a severe health issue rather than a criminal one and thus establish more rehabilitation centers and facilities to treat the drug users. Then to reduce crime, the government should focus more on addressing the evident causes of criminality in the country, such as poverty and social injustice, instead of enabling inhumane punishment to instill fear in criminals, which is proven to be ineffective.
Dumadami nga criminal criminal mga salut lipunan okay
As a Filipino as well, I agree with reimposition of death penalty. Countries with death penalty still can't eradicate crime completely and what say a country with very lax law on serious crime, it will be a crime paradise. Death penalty is only imposed on criminals that did very serious crime, with lax laws criminals wouldn't think twice in commiting crime because it's so easy to get away with. If you're a victim say, your close relative (Mom, sister, daughter) was raped and murdered, and you can just let the criminal just get away with few years jail time? I still believe in the justice system of an eye for an eye. I firmly believe those people with such a big heart & compassion to criminals haven't been a victim yet, once an unfortunate incident befall them, they will confirm think otherwise. Too often they think for the criminals, but what about the victims? Don't the victims deserve justice?
@@siongkuanjan5392 spot on!!!...👍
As a Filipino, I refuse to bring death penalty back. As long as the justice system here in the Philippines is not fair for all, the poor and weak will always be the disadvantaged one.
Bilang Pilipino, hindi ako pumapayag na ibalik ang Death Penalty. Maraming mga mahihirap ang madedehado dahil sa hindi patas na hustisya sa bansa.
@Eurie Lanas...It's a fact that there are more poor people in Philippines, therefore there are more poor criminals condemned than the rich ones. I get it that you human rights criminal lovers don't want death penalty because it's cruel, but even jails are cruel, if you follow your logic why don't you human rights criminal lovers demand government to also abolish jails?
@@vinoperoni7649 I didn't said that I love criminals. I just wanted the justice system to be fair. And honestly, some of these poor criminals were forced to do crime acts because of poverty. Due to the corrupt system of the high profile officials and heartless elitists and business people.
@@vinoperoni7649 It would be a damn shame if someone is accused of a crime and punished by death without even defending themselves due to lack of money to pay a competent lawyer.
@@vinoperoni7649 I already experienced being accused on something I didn't do. And it sucks that I have no power to defend myself and just accept my punishment because I was to powerless stop it.

1:00 I totally agree.
Being able to decide whether someone lives or not is in a way putting ourselves above that human being and not respecting their humanity.
It shouldn't even come to our mind that we can just end someone's life, that should be something only a god should be allowed to do.
But still, yung mga criminals gagawa padin ng crimen
respecting the criminal's humanity pero di nila nirespeto yung sa biktima nila nung ginawa ang krimen
I agree with death penalty punishment but it depends on the gravity of the crime. Murder and rape should be included. President Duterte/Tatay Digong you have my full support.
Killing another person who kills another person is not a justice, it's just an extension of killing spree
YouCan'tAlwaysGet WhatYouWant if someone kills other human(s) on purpose imo they should receive the same aka die. If the situation is vastly different, self defence etc it shouldn't be applicable.
What about killing someone who has killed and tortured several people? Or even worse, children? There's people out there capable of doing terrifying things.
I'm not completely pro death penalty nor completely against it. I do think there may be a place for it. As the old man said, fear of a posible death sentence can possibly decrease crime rate.
YouCan'tAlwaysGet WhatYouWant no,it's getting justice for the victims and their loved ones.
@@a.a.6789 That's not justice. It's revenge killing.
SixPack Shakur (Rep5281) people who've purposely killed innocent people just die same thing with rapists
Growing up in America, being full Filipino and growing up in the states. I feel like the death penalty should only apply to those that has committed a high crime, like killing somebody or killing multiple people that has gotten away with it, that’s been caught finally. The death penalty should not be applied to those that kidnap anybody nor to those that did drugs, unless it’s a high drug bust like meth or any of those high class drugs. for example, marijuana in the states is slowly becoming legal to many of the states here in the United States & drug charges are lifted if it’s just weed (marijuana). So that being said, the death penalty should only apply to those that has killed somebody. BUT sometimes those that committed those crimes here in the states, some only gets a life sentence. It’s a very hard debate, it just depends who you ask. I myself is a Christian, but there should at least be a law that if someone has taken a life, they should pay for it.
Instead of capital punishment which is applied after a crime has been committed, try to look into the reasons why people commit crimes. A lot of it falls down to poverty. Maybe it would be a better solution to try and prevent crime, by taking away the motivation to do so. And think about this... Would a person commit a crime if he thinks he'll get caught? No, he commits the crime thinking he'll get away with it, therefor punishment cannot be considered a deterrent for people.
Move to Switzerland if you want that
Edit:or was it sweden?
what will you do to people who commit crimes? release them? let them live? let them commit another one? Death penalty is for those who committed brutal crimes such as rape, multiple murders etc. It is also a way to relieve the victim's family from mental health issues as death serves as "karma" and judgment to what they did
poverty doesnt excuse rape, murder, torture, extortion. you simply die.
I'm divided on the death penalty. one part of me believes in healing peepo from within. other part of me says kill them already because they did some really bad things. I would like to think we could ALL be helped but often times, it's just too late especially for serial killers. the pain is long sealed, signed and delivered 🤷♀️
Can you do a video about the drug problem in the Philippines? The cause, effect, and if what is being done by their current President is helping with the problem. I think that will shed a lot of light to the whole negative propaganda by both the western & Philippine media. As far as safety, it all depends where you are in the country. If you go to the ghetto/extremely poor neighbourhood, safety could be an issue however, majority of the Philippines is safe. A lot of foreign visitors can attest to that. It’s the media that overdramatises everything and blows it out of proportion and portrays the country like it is infested with all criminals. They finally have a President who have the guts to clean up this whole mess and he is left with drug lords, addicts, & corrupt officials. You need a President like Duterte to clean up such a mess and straighten everyone up and defend & protect the people so that the next generation can thrive and live fully & peacefully.
Yeah! And people here in 2021 are talking crap about him that "He has not done anything for this country", like HELO? They must be blind. Our current president has done much more the the previous president's
keep it in mind church and politics should not stay in the same page church must be out in politics and on how to manage a country
We can not stop those rapists when there is no death penalty
like we have police men out here once they catch "THOSE RAPIST" out there like what are they gonna do put them in jail for 10 15 years?
and after those years passes by they gonna let them go then do the same crime over and over again!!
There's really no evidence that says death punishment deters murder and rape. It only puts everything on a loop.
they should cut their sex organs so that they cant do it again
I see some flaws in the practice, but I don't entirely disagree on bringing it back. I think most people view it as an act of taking a person's life, which is technically correct, but seeing it that way might actually lead someone to misunderstand the punishment, making them think it's wrong.
Well, although it may involve taking away someone's life, it's not just about killing a person; it's about discouraging the citizens not to participate in the acts this person did. If we use the death penalty to deter others from not doing the crime, it will instill fear in their minds, and may think twice when they find themselves in situations where they are tempted to commit such acts.
However, we must also think about the people we put in charge of taking care of the punishment. We must choose someone responsible, as this is something that could be easily abused. Right now, both the Filipino police and government are pretty much messed up. The Philippines is not yet ready for the punishment. We should at least do something about the cops and the officials before actually putting execution back in business.
Right now, I could say that I oppose the death penalty, but honestly if someone (god forbid) kills or rapes any of my close friends and family, then I would be lying if I said that I don't agree with it. I would want that criminal dead. This is a very contentious subject and the video was very interesting and eye opening
very good comment which describes the situation of this problem very well.
i agree Duranium BUT
I agree to death penalty as a second penalty
First penalty jail
second penalty death...
Learn from your mistakes
That right there is revenge not justice.
There's a lot of mistranslations but at least the general idea was delivered nicely.
In Indonesia of course death penalty is legal. Especially for Terrorism and drugs.
Ibalik na yang death penalty. It was a mistake to remove it in the first place. Ang matatakot lang naman niyan ay ang kriminal dapat eh.

the people has no right to kill or punish the criminals but the law has the right, death penalty is for the criminals, if youre not a criminal then why are you scared, i value the life of the law abiding citizen but for the criminals they deserve to be punished, all of our actions has consequences and we should all face it
for me yes..
why?
why would you be afraid of death penalty if you are law abiding citizen
and death penalty if you are at...
Rape
corruption
drugs
We all know how crappy our Justice System is. Here in Ph, justice is for the rich people only. Rich people are capable of doing everything to cover up their crimes and blame it to other people who have lesser power than them. There's a lot of people being convincted for the crimes they never did so if Death Penalty Bill will be passed, imagine the lives of people who are/who will be falsely accused for a crime they never did. Not only their decent lives with their family will be ruined, but also their lives will be taken away from them.
We should also pay attention on strengthening and fixing our Justice System. What would make us different from a true murderer if we agree on Death Penalty? We don't agree on Death Penalty not because we feel guilty or afraid of something we've done in the past. We don't agree because we're afraid that you or your family or friends might be falsely accused too. We always take things emotionally when in fact we should take things rationally. Let's think about our moral values too. We should learn to try putting our feet on other's shoes and see their perspectives.
That's my cents, I respect everyone's opinions.
Thank you for reading. (There will always be more sides of a thing we haven't seen so I'm open to hear different sides regarding this topic. 😁)
''An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth." this must be the basis of the punishments, if you take someone's life, yours should be taken, as well but what if the court isn't good enough to verify the guilt of the accused person, what if higher officials were hiding under their positions and blamed their crimes to innocent civilians, what if the what if's can be true, Let's all agree that the Philippines weren't ready for the death penalty, we must strengthen our justice system first and replace the people who're in the position.
Yesss I found you, we had the same reasons and screw those humans who contradicts us. Hahahahahahaha.
wannna study collge in PH but i know no one :(
If you wnat to study college in the ph, choose ateneo or UP they have such good quality education there
4:15 "Pope Francis strongly stated capital punishment is not acceptable" sabi nga Bibliya sa Numbers 35:30-31 “If anyone kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the evidence of witnesses. But no person shall be put to death on the testimony of one witness. Moreover, you shall accept no ransom for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death, but he shall be put to death." at marami pang verses na suportado ng Bible ang DP
And here I thought they had a separation of church and state in 1987. Guess not really.
Separation of Church and State means the State will not interfere with Religion.... Religion, just like any political party or Business groups or non governmental organization can lobby and influence the government and can freely express their political opinions......
Krishyy Fan Of course I know that.
My statement should be taken as more of a metaphor.
Asian Boss can you ask them who they want to run for the next presidential election? I really want to know. (Sorry if my grammar is wrong)
Anyone except from the Liberal Party and the Yellow Cult.
The Bible states that gov't has different responsibilities than individuals, so govt can take a life. Yet an individual can not take a life.
Also a lot of crime gappens when the government fails. I believe it's better to treat the problems that cause crime rather than trying to fight crime itsself
Essentially, it is only a matter of decision on which life should be treasured the most; criminals or victims
No we need a fair and secure justice system
Statistics show that capital punishment does not lower crime rates. Criminals who commit crimes, do it with the intent to not get caught. They rarely consider the consequences, before hand.
As a Filipino i agree to death penalty
And also the juvenile detention too
Mostly all of the filipinos who says that its inhumane this and that then lets see what will happen if one of your relatives or friends becomes a victim of this crimes you cant do something about it and it always bugs you that some of them is doing a life sentence even if they killed a lot of innocent.
They should have it like in Norway, Maxium 21 years in prison, luxurious prisons that looks like hotells and be stuck in (paradise) Its not that it's unfair, (ok actually it is) BUT we do that to help the criminals, To make them work for something in the future in life and not leave them completely broken after they get out of prison. We basically cutted out the idea of punishment/hate/justice and made the prison system into a therapy kinda thing to just cut down the crime rate and it works pretty well. I believe punishment is up to god to judge us for in the afterlife.
Agree to this!
I wonder if those people who said that criminals should be given another chance, would say so if they had their children murdered. It's easy to be indulgent with criminals when the crime is unrelated to you.
i actually want it back
and pls try interviewing people outside manila people in manila have deferent opinions
Those against death penalty definitely have no family member brutally murdered. Whenever I think that my beloved one could no longer see the sunshine tomorrow, but that killer can still enjoy his meals, my heart is broken. My whole family suffer every day as long as he is still alive. You can't imagine the pain because you did not experience it.
I think some of them confuse death penalty with EJK ( Extra Judicial Killing).
uhmm sir, are you saying that theres's no difference between ejk and death penalty. can u answer me asap?
They're just the same. Many innocent people die due to wrong verdict.
@@elmiralustiva7593 no they're not. EJK is done by vigilantes, probably those from the same drug gangs killing their members to stop them from telling them to police/authority. On the other hand, Death Penalty is done by government and is properly processed and investigated with evidences and witnesses.
@@randomly_random_0 gang violence is wayyyy different from EJKs. You can easily search up the meaning of EJK and connect it to the many killings the police has done to innocent civilians.
@@randomly_random_0 either way, EJK and death penalty are the same in a way that, although the intent is supposed to be good, the status quo does not reflect the goodness of it and they (ejk and death penalty) turn out as tools for the powerful to extract power. Duh. Know the difference ano, kaya nga extra judicial kasi it's committed by the police sector. If it's just gang violence from cartels, it wouldn't be categorized as EJK.
If the criminal lives better than the victim, it's just like a reward to criminal, rather than justice.
When it comes to murder, the murderer should at least be as dead as the victim, before other punishments.
Let a murderer to live is like give a $10 penalty for stealing $1000, doesn't make sense at all.
asian boss should try interviewing people who are not from luzon... like visayas or mindanao
If they murdered or raped someone, then yes, give them the death penalty. Would never consider giving them a second chance. Our country is soft af
Yes but if they are dping drugs to themself and didn't hurt anyone life sentence or if that person has a very dark backround rehabilitation, death penalty is. Only for my opinion is givin to the people who killed others they deserve death penalty i know its not a catholic thing to do i am a catholic myself but that person killed someone and many people wanted him to go to prison and be a better person and have a second chance... But the people he or she did not give a seconc chance she or he can never bring back the dead the only punishment for a killer is to be killed... Thats only my opinion
As a Filipino I think we should like make sure and check our justice system before bringing death penalty back
I believed this video was taken place in Marikina
Dont ask ordinary people. Try asking jail officer, ex convict, or prisoner or a lawyer. They know whats the best solution to it because are the one experiencing of whats really happening.
I always love your Filipino videos you're doing here AsianBoss, Thank you!
Some of those who were interviewed said that some people commit crimes because of the lack of job of opportunities.. I guess they are pertaining to robbers, kidnappers, carnappers and the like. But these are not punishable by death (unless it resulted to killing). However, I beg to disagree to that statement in general. Because no one will RAPE, MASSACRE, CUT PEOPLE INTO PIECES simply because they are jobless and needed money :(
Why are the saying the bible doesn't allow the death penalty, the bible says an eye for an eye.
The Bible says the government can impose it but not an individual..
Mixed feeling talaga Meron takot at saya pero pipiliin ko na walang death penalty si GOD lang ang pweding bumawi ng buhay ng tao at hindi kapwa tao
I some countries a life sentence is just 25 years long. They could be „happy“ about having a real life sentence. But instead they want to legalise the death penalty which could easily be used in the wrong way. Like some people said in the interview there are people that have to commit crimes in order to survive. The government should focus on giving those people an opportunity instead of waiting for them to commit a crime and then kill them.
It is so visible na parang nagiging theocracy tayo eh, hindi democarcy eh, kasi halos lahat yung mga desisyon ng pamahalaan, lalo na sa pagbabawal ng death penalty at divorce, ay sumasalamin sa impluwenisya ng Simbahang Katoliko eh.
Excellent variety of answers! Interesting! The death penalty should be reinstated in the Philippines! However Duterte needs to have an independent judiciary monitor the capital punishment cases and death row inmates deserve several times to appeal it! Duterte is right to try to get the crime situation under control but he thinks political opposition and people speaking out peacefully against him is a crime! Due to those reasons Duterte does not need to have the final say so as to who gets executed!
The language sounds like languages from North sulawesi like Gorontaloans, Sangirese, or Minahasan/Manadoans
i also hear a lot of english/spanish
Yes, northeastern Indonesian ethnic groups and eastern Malaysian ethnic groups are the most closely related to Filipino.
The southernmost island of the Philippines - Mindanao, was once known as "Maluku Besar" ("Great Moluccas") by Moluccans, due to its close ethnic and cultural relationshop with the rest of the Maluku islands. They were separated when the Spanish conquered the Philippines, while the Portuguese conquered the Moluccas.
The Sangirese particularly still have relatives in Mindanao, and to this day are still predominantly Christian.
@@BravoCoy i heard Pinoy were colonized by Srivijaya & Majapahit long before Spanish colonized it, i heard Visayans were descendants of Srivijayan Soldiers that married with the locals at there
Evan Filemon The Tagalog/Filipino language has some similarities to Indonesian language.
@@nightsky5023 yeah thanks to Srivijaya & Majapahit annexation of Pinoy Archipelago. Even Visayans were descendants of Srivijayan soldiers
The death penalty for drugs is LUDICROUS! People of the WORLD. Wake up! The only way to defeat the world of drugs is to treat the addicts, not kill them! Decriminalization and treatment - not incarceration and murder.
Research Portugal as a case study
The war on drugs seems to not be over yet unfortunately :/
@@Ultrameowmeow Im from portugal myself. When drug consumption was descriminalized, crime reduced, treatment made addicts lives better and safer, and weirdly even consumption reduced.
In my opinion most countries should take this liberal approach.
I completely agree.. the West has a system of masking symptoms instead of fixing problems.
I agree. For drug ADDICTS. But not for pushers. Those are two very different people. The problem with drugs in the Philippines is that it's not a domestic problem. The vast majority of the illegal drug trade is controlled by Chinese triads. And these are very very bad people. They are also responsible for organized crime - kidnappings, assassinations, fraud, smuggling, human trafficking, etc. I would be more lenient towards small-time drug dealers who sell pot, for example, but not these people.

I am in favor of death penalty. However, I think the justice system must be efficient first before this could be implemented. In addition, some people say that it's disgusting that there are more "sinful" people in a "religious" country like Philippines... I think it's because religion doesn't neither change nor make person's heart purer. True knowledge and relationship with God does. And remember, evils won't try to disturb those they already have won... but those who are not theirs. So don't lose hope, someday our country would be a better place. Let's spread more love than hatred
To be honest, it's saddening because the people here in the Philippines that do drugs can't control themselves then drive them to some point where they start to do unforgivable, or life scarring crimes.
It's equal when a person says that people cannot kill other people when they are merely doing it for the nation's safety. We have a respectable reason behind it, rather than a cruel and hateful one.
freedom make some of us evil..fear sometimes paralyses the action of evil..
Who tf will want to pay taxes for criminals to feed them
If the taxes don't go to the criminals in prison it will instead go to other criminals. (corrupt politicians)
There's hardly any budget to maintain prisons and improve prisoners' welfare as revenues from taxes go to the pockets of a few and powerful.
Guess what next week mgdodonate kami ng foods sa jail, which is sucks tang.ina mga kriminal kayo
Make one asking philippino people about the CPP-NPA
I think at some cases death penalty is necessary when someone did big and horrible crime(s). Avoid death penalty as punishment as possible, but do it when necessary.
it would be interesting hear what crimes you think warrant a death penalty. I personally think the death penalty is pointless and illogical. Regardless of what we've done in our life, we're all humans but more so it's an easy way out for the criminal. A rapist, murderer, child molester should face his/her consequence for committing such atrocious crimes. Killing them will not make this happen. It's a way out for them to avoid punishment in my eyes. Drugs definitely doesn't warrant the death penalty. Alcohol and gambling are just as damaging. Why kill someone for it?
that my 2 cents.
@@CFCMAMO1 then how about serial killer? Yes, all of us as a human always do many mistakes and sins, either it's intentionally or not, no one is perfect. But if someone did horrible and big crime(s) over and over without remorse or redemption, especially takes other people's life, then he/she deserves death penalty. The point of death penalty isn't for revenge because it won't bring back the victim(s) alive or erase what already happened, but to protect other people who are still alive from become the next victim.
@@alvinmulia4263 yeah serial killer included. You can protect the public by putting him or her in jail for life. Rather than just killing them immediately after having committed a crime. That's too easy. They need to suffer. Having said that, not all crimes should be life sentence as it could be down to rehabilitation.
Look into the Norway system which focuses on rehab rather than punishment and its working very well. Just TH-cam Norway prison.
I guess it's not black or white but definitely don't need the death penalty (not just Philippines but the world).
@@alvinmulia4263 you could put him in jail for the rest of his life, then the public would be safe from him too.
Then he might even think about what he has done and regret his actions. There's always room to let someone become a better person.
Then what if during his/her time in prison, he/she killed another people maybe prisonmate or guard. Or somehow he/she managed to escape jail and then kill another people during or after the escape. Still doesn't deserve death penalty?

Please change your interviewer in the Philippines for Pete's sake!
Employment and having the right education for all will solve the drug problem, might not totally eliminate but will surely lessen the cases.
I agree! I wish the government would focus more on education being accessible for all Filipinos. I believe it would be a step in the right direction.
That's what Miriam Defensor planned to do when she was still alive.
LOL YOURE SO LATE ITS ALREADY BEING APPLIED WHEN PANOT PRESIDENT STILL !!! NOW THIS ADMINISTRATION MUST GO TO CLEANSING OF PEOPLE WITHIN THE COUNTRY SO THAT THE YOUNG PEOPLE WILL HAVE A BETTER FUTURE THAN BEING A VICTIM FROM CRIMINAL!!!
lots of crimes such as theft, kidnapping, drug trafficking, were done because of poverty. Just to provide money for their family (except most drug dealers only want money and power and to feed their addiction). But let's not forget that all crimes are not just because of poverty. Poverty has nothing to do with rape, vengeance, hatred towards someone that leads to murder or killing just for fun.
So for me, it would be OK to bring back death penalty but only for those who committed crime just because they wanted to do it and not because they had to. And especially to those who were already imprisoned, given a chance to change, yet still does the same crime. They are the very people who must be gone. If you know what I mean.
Death penalty is a serious deterrent to heinous crimes. Although, like the concerns raised from a previous comment below, if the judicial system is corrupt and/or incompetent, it may well be implemented against the less fortunate and under-privilege. So many things to consider from law enforcement to jurisprudence. As a matter of principle, death penalty should be reinstated.
Please do "What Filipinos think about atheism?".
lalilulelo
Yea i want to see their opinion as well
Please do!!!
As a Filipino , I think atheists you meet in person do not bother about religion so much that you would only know they're atheists if you ask them. Filipinos' exposure to atheism usually occurs online and I think most online atheists do not represent atheism as a whole. There are times when I recognize the same accounts trolling different religious pages like he/she/they was reaching a quota of comments. So "What Filipinos think about atheism" is generally what you would think of accounts trolling different religious pages.
Thanks Asian Boss for raising social issues like this. It's good to hear different answers and perspective from Filipinos. :)
What good for the country should be implemented and your reason should be practical not by basing on religious belief. Thats why many new religion born today because of many issue on catholic.
It seems like a clash btw religion and country's law. I think country come first before religion as it's an identity you are living with. If you go outside all will ask your nationality not religion even in bad situation your country will rescue you as you belongs to her. You can oppose law if it's threaten to humanity. It's good to be religious until you start to hovering over other's freedom.
I don't think people who commit capitol crimes are influenced by the possible penalty. A prison sentence no matter the duration most often ruins the rest of the prisoners life. Incarceration is expensive and rehabilitation outcome is usually less then expected. Most effective solution is death for all crime no matter how slight the infraction.
Paki explain nga bakit mahirap na tao makabili ng drugs kahit mahal naman yan bakit hindi nila ibili ng pagkain para sa pamilya?
Pinoy talaga noh
if you use drugs you will be addicted?. why my friend used drug for the first time certainly he get arrested when he get released to the prison. he is changing his life. now i see him with hope of his life.
No. It should stay illegal.

Vice ganda hahahah dejk
Kahit sino basta matalino,knows how economic works,charismatic yung tipong maiimpluwensyahan nya ang mga tao in good ways,man of action,higit sa lahat handa magsilbi para sa bayan ng nagmumula sa puso....wag sana tayo bumoto dahil lang sa kasikatan o dahil sa apelyido kailangan natin ng pangulong genuine.
why dont you ask the educated middle class and upper classes...for me death penalty for heinous crimes
dapat talaga, tawag kasi dyan discipline.. hindi kasi cla matatakot kapag di nila ma wi.witness ang pinaka worst na punishment. .pero dapat tutukan ang lahat na kaso para yung mga totoong criminal talaga ang ma paparusahan..
For me, death penalty will serve as a deterrent from people who wants to commit crime. I'm speaking for those families who has been victimized by crimals and for those soldiers and policeman laying their lives on the line just to protect people who think otherwise. A lot of innocent people get killed each day. It is sad to think that our country hasn't done much to serve justice. I am for death penalty, for those criminals who are so evil and dangerous to be left in prison.
The Justice System in the Philippines is Faulty. I do believe that we should "Kill the Crime not the Crimal." At the same time
Religion should not play a part in the affairs of the state. The Philippine Constitution Article II Section 6 states, “The separation of Church and State shall be inviolable.” The state and church are separate beings so their matters should not collide. It will only be a hindrance and make the case harder to be solved if the Catholic body involves themselves. Also in Catholic teachings, the Bible actually gave many examples on executing criminals for their crimes.
some people don't get that death penalty won't work in the phils because the justice system itself isnt fixed
what will happen is that people of the poor or working class will be the ones to receive the death penalty while politicians and rich people will be able to get away with their crimes even though they deserve it more
As long as the justice system is flawless, then, by all means, make it legal. However, the Philippines is not ready for it. Not at the moment, nope.
Agree!
Ayusin muna nila ang pulisya, NBI, DOJ bago magdesisyon diyan sa death penalty! Yung tipong may prinsipyo na kahit piso di magpapatinag o matukso. Yung tipong di takot labanan ang isang makapangyarihang tae. Kung yan nakamit, wala na akong dudang sasang-ayon sa death penalty, walang relihiyon, mayaman-pulubi, lalaki-babae sa batas. Kapag walang butas ang batas at mangbabatas ipaglalaban ko yan!
according to my research about phillipine i dont think that should be back in the country i think is time for the millitary to start working hard to arrest or get people in bad act and give them severe punishment and it also depend on the kind of crime they made
I wonder how tagalog (aka filipino) sound like to foreigners.
How does Bahasa sound to you? I think that's how it's like hehe.
To me it sounds like Spanish with a Thai pronounciation
Being the child of an OFW. It's extremely weird automatically translating tagalog into another language in your head.
Kung kumitil k ng buhay, dapat kitilin din ang iyong buhay. Compensation is not enough, it's as if pera lang ang buhay ng tao.
deATh penalty could absolutely help to control crimes, some people are not afraid of the law anymore. life for a life case maybe..depending on reasons and faults
PARA SAKIN DAMIHAN ANG TRABAHO AT D BASE SA PINAG ARALAN O SAN KA GALING YUN LANG
TRABAHO LANG
Sa tingin ko ang death penalty ay hindi maisasabatas. Kasi pag naipasa yan, malalagas ang mga politiko dahil sila ang mauunang mapatawan ng kaparusan...
