The Napoles-PDAF scandal is among the blatant manifestations of structural violence which plagues our society. Adding insult to injury is the alleged involvement of supposedly the people's representatives, yes, the senators and congressmen. But the worst thing of all is that the structural violence also translates to personal violence. Farmers who are supposed beneficiaries of the absconded largesse by bogus NGOs, aren't anonymous, faceless, abstract beings. They also are real, concrete, flesh-and-blood, hungry, and angry human beings. For every peso which the PDAF thieves indulged themselves in, are real persons whose children have missed real breakfasts, lunches, dinners; children who haven't been able to attend school anymore because their farmer parents who needed real help were simply used as anonymous names to fill-up the PDAF scammers' infernal documents; of real people who may have committed suicide, or have gone insane due to all the stress, pains, sufferings, of all the frustrations after all their travails due to the El Ninos, Pablo, Sendong, Ondoy, Habagat, etc., which in turn were used by the soulless syndicates as rationale to corner all those PDAF monies. For all these, and MORE, thus the government has ALL the DUTY to make sure that the PDAF schemers and all their collaborators, conduits, allies, protectors, purveyors, and what not, in the PDAF crime must be brought (even dragged) into this hallowed country's courts of justice, and meted out with all the liabilities and accountabilities which their horrendous actions mercilessly and unconscionably inflicted against us, THE PEOPLE, Pnoy's real BOSS.
