Speak out: Dumpit is a hero
By Vicente T. Manalac
Assistant Regional Prosecutor


Your newspaper, by publishing negative matters about PO3 Adonis Dumpit, is only inspiring criminals to get bolder and pushing other policemen to become weaklings.

For as long as Dumpit shoots in self-defense, he should be encouraged to shoot endlessly. Policemen, unlike civilians, are duty-bound to stand their ground and fight. Such rule as,“Stand Ground and Fight,” is well entrenched in the many Supreme Court decisions on self-defense.

Let us support the police and rid our place of robbers, hired killers, rapists etc.

Dumpit is a hero just like Lapu-Lapu and I salute the man. Let us all rally behind him and not rally behind the criminals.
