Netizens Lambasts VP Leni on Her Suggestions to Decriminalize Drug Use in the Philippines

The controversial Vice President of the Philippines, Vice Pres. Leni Robredo made headlines anew in a negative way as netizens lambasts the second highest official in the country for suggesting that the Philippines could follow the footsteps of Portugal in decriminalizing the use of illegal drugs in the country and sending the victims to experts for therapy


Vice Pres. Leni Robredo gave her suggestions to the Duterte administration during a speech at the University of Los Baños in the Province of Laguna after one of the students challenged her on how she is going to end the drug problems in the country.

According to VP Leni's suggestion, the government should follow Portugal's "triumphant war on drugs." VP Leni revealed that Portugal decriminalize drug use in 2001, she also believes that it can solve the war that Duterte is waging against drugs.

VP Leni said that instead of killing or sending drug addicts to jail for life, why not send them to experts for therapy.

Netizens took to social media as they lambasted the Vice President's suggestions of ending the drug problems in the country because they believed that for the past six years during the Aquino administration and even under her husband's stint as DILG Secretary the drug problems proliferated in the Philippines and even the national penitentiary was used as a drug haven.

One netizen commented that the success in Portugal is hard to replicate in the Philippines because politicians are behind the massive drug distribution, our country was abused by the yellow government for years, our justice system is controlled by individuals who are unjust and have links to drug trades.

Here's Some of the Negative Reactions from Concerned Netizens:

Luis Yujoco Filoteo: Kung yan ang plano ni leni to legalize the illegal drugs why not legalize also corruptions...

Oscar Picazo: VP Leni, isipisip muna naman po bago kayo magsasalita about decriminalization. Context and perspective are very important. Shabu is very different from heroin, and Portugal is also very different from the Philippines. Problema po sa inyo, you do not analyze things.

Nurse Gemini: Baka nagdrudrugs si pekeng vp,baka pati mga anak nya ay drug addict din,kapiraso na lang nga ang utak mo bugok pa,saan ka ba nanghihiram ng kapal ang mukha,hindi na tabla adobeng puro ang kapal ng kara mo budlat mata

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
