Would You Let Magdalo (Instead Of Police And Military) Protect The Schools In Case Of An Emergency?


The NPA recruitment of minors happening at a very fast rate is NOT something to be taken lightly. President Duterte tried having peace talks with the NPA (presumably due to young people in them) but it failed. Now, the recent event has it that certain universities that are a target for police and military supervision are protesting against it. But I do have an alternative for them if they hate the military and police. They can ask for Antonio Trillanes IV, Gary Alejano, and their Magdalo troops to protect these schools in case of an emergency.

Any big crisis would definitely require the declaration of martial law or military intervention. The Philippine government would require a mandatory military checkpoint in schools and public gathering areas for this reason - to protect the civilians from possible invasions or to ward out infiltrators. If the area is in a certain threat then that area needs to have a military intervention. It's just like how Mindanao had to have military checkpoints because of the looming Maute threat. This would also mean having military checkpoints near schools and other places where a lot of people gather. That's because huge crowds are one of the best hiding places for terrorists.

I can't imagine how Magdalo troops would try to protect school campuses in a national emergency. Do you remember how both Oakwood Mutiny and Manila Peninsula Siege ended? Trillanes IV and his troops ended up retreating and hiding after their loss. The whole operation ended up in a fiasco. If they can't even ward off the Philippine Army at that time then I wonder how would they protect school campuses in case of a huge crisis?
