So Schools Are No Longer Safe

I read about this news in FTalk just last night.

Here’s a clipping from an article:

Nag-ugat ang reklamo sa umano’y panggagahasa ng tatlong lalaking estudyante, na may edad 15 hanggang 16, sa isang 16-taong gulang na babae sa loob ng isang vacant room ng paaralan nitong Hunyo 25.

Ayon sa biktima, ginahasa siya pagkatapos ng initiation rites ng isang non-accredited organization kung saan siya pinainom ng alak.

Sumali raw siya sa organisasyon dahil sa paanyaya ng isang pang babaeng estudyante.

Samantala, naniniwala naman ang mga awtoridad na may pinainom ding gamot sa biktima kaya ngayo’y hinihintay din ang resulta ng drug test nito.

Inaresto naman ng mga awtoridad ang apat na suspek, kabilang na ang babaeng estudyante na nag-udyok sa biktima na sumali sa organisasyon.

GANG RAPE inside the school campus? whatda! my first time to hear something like that. it’s hard to imagine an incident like that would happen inside the campus. i know there’s a lot of university scandals found everywhere, but those were just crap. i mean the girls do even liked what were did to them.. so schools are now removed from the list of “least prone places for incidents such as rapes and abuses to happen”. honestly, i think there are no safe place anymore in this country – even at home, there were lately a lot of news about abused/raped victims by their own fathers.. where is justice by the way? is he already in the Philippines? haven’t heard from him yet.

I admit i somehow pitied the girl. it would be really shameful and embarrassing for her side. she might even bring this experience all through out her college life! hope she won’t have traumas after this incident.

But i can’t stop blaming her and thinking that it was also her fault.. yes i know it is the 4 students – 3 males and 1 girl, who are to be blamed. but does the girl know what fraternity (or rather non-accredited organization) means? i guess her university had an orientation for freshmen right? if so, probably they warned them about these unauthorized groups. or maybe her friends or parents could have told her about it? but actually, students were already being warned since high school. and besides, i know these kinds of organizations were also being televised nowadays, so it is impossible to say that she doesn’t know what fraternities are. don’t tell me she doesn’t watch documentaries? LOL. at least she should have an idea what frats do to their members.

And if this girl accomplice didn’t mentioned about joining any frats, i still consider it her fault. she shouldn’t have trusted the girl from the very start since she doesn’t know her – a stranger like what people call them (since i haven’t heard nor read about something like the girl accomplice being a friend of the girl victim, so i assumed they are both strangers to each others presence). was the accomplice very convincing with her words? that’s not an excuse FYI! she still shouldn’t have given her trust that easily. we have this saying that goes: “do not trust strangers” or something like that right? it is over-used now actually. so that’s the lesson to learn again this time.

And to hide it from her parents for 3 days?! WTH!
