Recent
years have seen an extraordinary number of extra-judicial killings of
political leaders and human rights defenders in the Philippines. The Asian
Human Rights Commission believes that these killings are preventable,
but will only stop if the local and international community publicly condemn
and pressure the government of the Philippines into taking action. |

List of Petitioners1401. James Hodgson Toronto, Canada I am very disappointed that the Philippines government, which does little to protect human rights while also attacking human rights defenders (churches, journalists, etc.), continues to benefit from the tacit support of other governments. 1402.

We need to grow up and learn how to share.
Privatization is anti-democratic.
The common good has been victimized by the idolatry of the corporate person.
Supply side economics perverts the common good into an instrument of corporate profit.
Supply side economics objectifies the individual and violates the sanctity of the human spirit.
Supply side economics is immoral.
How can the us deny usage of what the us stole?
