Insane Driver; Insane Citizens

Aside from the usual show downloads that I occassionally watch, I hardly get stuck in front of the tube. It really is something when I get to hang around any place near one - - -  a once-in-a-blue-moon kind of thing. Anyhooo... I chanced upon the television awhile ago, and the news was about this seemingly troubled "former Filipino soldier" who counter-flowed his way through Edsa earlier today. If you don't happen to pass by that busy area here in Manila, you should just know that it's impossible to get from point A to point B in less than an hour if your route happens to fall under that.  

Going back to what happened, when the suspect/driver was arrested for bumping into 25 unfortunate vehicles, he claims that he did so because "inagaw ko ang bandila ng Pilipinas. Bahala kayo kung ano gusto niyo.   Basta claim the Philippine flag from  me" - - - or something to that effect... 

That guy's simply out of his mind. 

And what stuns me is how comical I find it. We've seen worse to know better than  to be disheartened this piece of trash.  If you think about it, it's far better than learning that a former president (such as "Erap" Estrada,) who has the nerve to even rule the country a second time, is doing well in the polls. 

When recurring things happen, ridiculous and unreasonable ones like this, it sort of builds up your tolerance for dispiritedness, which in effect, makes you finally give up on caring. In most cases, that term can be coined as indifference. 

It doesn't take a drug-inflicted fellow to pull something like this to be counted as insane. 
Resting one's vote upon someone who has already been impeached for grave corruption, and for clearly wasting away the country's resources, MIND YOU, is an inexcusable route to self-destruction. One need not secure a high form of education to know better than to vote for a good-for-nothing-actor-turned-politician. 

Haynako, Philippines, haven't you learned any better? Haynako.
