We're better than this.

Letting our lives be run by fear. We're better than this.

Snitching on the people who should be able to trust us. We're better than this.

Putting millions at risk so I can feel "safe". We're better than this. Robbing our children and grandchildren of the opportunities we've had in life. We're better than this.

Accepting unscientific responses because we don't want to question. We're better than this.

Proclamation No. 1081, dated September 21, 1972, Pres. Ferdinand Marcos declared Martial Law in the Philippines. Barely 10 years old at that time, but the ominous sound of sirens, the menacing presence of the military deployed across the country, and the imposition of CURFEW. Image Media censorship ensued with only the Philippine Daily Express allowed to print and TV networks shutdown. The pretext of this was widespread political violence, rampant lawlessness by agitators and economic free fall.
