Janet Lim Napoles : Surrender Now or Else?

Wazzup Pilipinas!

"With so many angry Filipinos out to get her, my unsolicited advice for Janet Napoles is it might be safer for her to just surrender and be under the custody of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). Worse that could happen is that she ends up getting herself killed by powerful people who want to protect their interests and all her "secrets" would go down with her to the grave. If she really is innocent as she claims to be then she shouldn't be afraid at all to face the music and prove to us that she is not guilty of all the accusations being thrown at her and her family." - Harvey Keh

That is one of the status message posted on my timeline from Harvey Keh of the Kaya Natin movement.

I have to agree with his plea or request to Janet Lim Napoles, but that may also work against Napoles because it may also become easy for those "people who want to protect their interests" to silence her as she has already become a loose end if she decides to spill the beans against those that benefited from the scam.

When Children Suffer for the Sins of Adults

-The first image referenced in the Vatican pedophilia.
-The second image the child sexual abuse in tourism in Thailand.
-The third refers to the war in Syria.
-The fourth image refers to trafficking in organs on the black market, where most of the victims are children of poor countries.
-The fifth refers to free U.S. weapons.
-The sixth image refers to obesity, blaming the big fast food companies

This is great art, raising awareness - for me too serious to "like" it. Extremely powerful, no lengthy diatribe is necessary. Though it's quite painful to see!!! This is the dark face of the world.

Do you hate the premise of these images? .. Dramatising human issues through religious imagery?

I think that people are equating crucifixion with Christ only, forgetting that crucifixion was one of the main ways that people were tortured to death under the Roman empire. Jesus was not the only person to be crucified - he is just one of the only people we remember. I am not sure that the artist is "blaming" Christianity for anything in any way at all. (Perhaps the crucifixion imagery is being used to emphasize the innocence of the children/their "martyrdom," if it is being used as a Christ reference at all?)
