He added, “As far as we’re concerned, itong patuloy na pagyurak sa karapatang pantao, ang kawalan ng katapusan dito sa araw-araw na patayan at :yung pagpuslit pati ng P6.5 billion na shabu. Eh, lahat ng ito ay dapat tutulan.”
“Dapat i-protesta, dapat tuligsain at ‘yun ang ginagawa ng iba’t ibang mga grupo sa ngayon sa araw na ito,” stated Pangilinan, Liberal Party president and a member of the Senate minority bloc.
