Mike S Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 The question was brought up about should these kids be punished .... will I'll answer it this way .... if there was no punishment for crimes would we be crime free ..... absolutely not ..... the reason these kids and their handlers keep stealing is because they know there is not a single law to stop them or punishment they will receive .... the good old DSWD has seen to it that these little darlings are protected and even the police can't do anything to stop them ..... and god help you if you do anything like push or grab one .... you will be arrested ..... thrown in jail and deported .... It isn't near as bad here in Bacolod as it was in Cebu ..... especially around the circle .... I used to get accosted everytime we went there with some brat trying to put his hand in my pocket or steal the watch off my wrist ..... :santa laugh: :cheersty: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tukaram (Tim) Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 The first time we went to Cebu I forgot to warn my wife about the packs of beggar kids. She had been to Manila, so I thought she would be ok., I had forgotten how bad the packs of kids are in Cebu. Much worse than Manila (my experience anyway), and we just don't have them in Iloilo. My wife was freaking out... the kids are so aggressive, and the cops do nothing. At least the security guards tend to chase them away from the businesses they work for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Runza Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 We do still help people but are more choosy (if that`s the right word) who we help. Yes, choosy is a word. In this case, it is exactly the right word. That is all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Runza Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 The lack of foresight demonstrated here is not exclusive to the Philippines. However, the lack of consequences is bothersome. What, the police have something better to do than bust thieves?! Nevertheless, it's just another example of Live For Today: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonjack2847 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Posted December 14, 2015 There is an older woman who is always begging around the local market here. Yesterday I was in Prince warehouse and I saw her with a basket full of lots of sachets so I think she has a sari store but she still begs go figure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
