My stand on this incident is that, I am in the side of Mayor Duterte, it is because what she did is for the people, though, she acted barbaric, yet it is justifiable. I am not saying that her act is good, but my point is, why did the sheriff disobey or granted that request of the mayor? Did he wanted to be approached violently just like what happened to him? He is to blame for the riot. Well, that's a fact.
