Edwin, let’s keep our focus straight. We are talking about martial law. Let’s not show everyone your true colors based on your comments about San Francisco. If I had mentioned that Assoc. of Asian Studies home base is Boston, Massachusetts, would that make it better for you? And to answer your question how martial law hurt me, it didn’t hurt me one bit. But you already knew that, I am assuming you’ve read my previous posts. The holocaust didn’t hurt me either, but I’ll be damned if I can say that I don’t feel for the Jews. But let’s get back to martial law, Marcos style. He supposedly made people disappear, so there’s no mass grave to speak of. He supposedly incarcerated political opponents, including nuns, priests, and students simply for speaking out. He supposedly bought or shut down television, radio, and newspapers. Those that stayed open were pretty much puppets for his amusement. He also supposedly squandered billions of US aid or should I say the money disappeared. The examples I used are just a few documented cases extracted from the public records in Honolulu, some from history books, but most are from the printed media. But you’ve also made it clear how you feel about the media and the US court system. Unless you can debunk history books, I’ve been totally duped. By the way, didn’t Marcos die a while back?
