FILIPINO HIJACKERS TAKING THE WHOLE ‘FOR THE CHILDREN’ THING A LITTLE BIT TOO FAR

FITSNews - March 28, 2007 - A Filipino day care owner hijacked a bus full of children in Manila yesterday in an effort to force his government to provide better education and health care.

“I am so sorry I took these children in a violent action to call the attention of the Filipino people to open their minds to the political reality,” the hostage-taker said in a very poorly constructed sentence.

Yeah. To help these children this guy’s idea was to threaten their lives with machine guns and hand grenades. Talk about a protest that’s fraught with some circular logic. That would be like Greenpeace threatening to dump a boatload of oil in the ocean, you know, to protect the seagulls. Or kicking someone in the balls and spitting in their face in an effort to show them how much you love them.
