GUYS!! Mindanao is just like Cebu City. We have also mga identified areas like, barangays na badlungon, barangays na puno ug mga addicts, barangay na puno ug mangingilad, barangay na hugaw and so on and so fort. Usually gani kini ang daghan sa news. Patay diri patay didto. In the eyes of the people who are not from here or dont have the chance to really see the real situation, syempre ang ila lang makita kung unsa ang nakita nila sa tv news. We cant blame them but we will surely be offended if some tourist will comment na lugar ta sa mga addict, daghan patay diri. di ba?
This is not to address a particular post here ha. Just my insights.
Let us try not to generalize. Tan-awa sa map sa Mindanao unsa lang kadaku ang basilan, ang zamboanga, ang cotabato. Ug sa kagamay, di pa jud ang tanan lugar sa cotabato ang affected, and so on and so forth. More than half of Mindanao are Christians. And yet again, it doesn't matter.
Look at Munti, look at our jails, I dont know the exact figures but it is very easy to tell that most of them are christians. Kung naa man kriminal sa muslims, daghan sad kriminal nga mga kristiyano. Siguro makaingon ta na ang mga muslim lahi ug ideals and creating groups such as abu sayaf, etc. Its not them being a muslim, its them being a citizen not contented with the government for reasons they believe in. Same as with christians NPA. And yet again, gamay ra kaayo ni sila compara sa muslim population sa pilipinas. Lesson lang, let us not discriminate.
We are all human beings. And muslim are as dignified as we are. In our place, we live side by side christians and muslims and we get along just fine.
