Should ‘tambays’ be arrested?
Tambays shouldn’t be arrested. In fact they are the ones nga makabulig sa tawo nga nabiktima abi sang aksidente or krimen. Sila ang makauna makakita and they will be the witnesses.
We don’t have any right to judge them. They are also human. They still deserve respect. Here’s the thing, what if kun gatambay lang kag gapaliwaliwa, gulpi ka lang arestohon? Daw ka itid ka ulo ta aw. – KATRINA JADE JALANDONI JUMAYAO, 18, Senior High School student, Pavia National High School
Can our communities provide small plazas where everyone can mingle, including the tambays, like sa ibang bansa? Kaso, sa sitwasyon ng buhay natin at tradisyon, malabo mangyari ‘yun.
Under the current decree against tambays, dapat i-specify. Paano kung kalalabas mo lang ng bahay mo na wala namang maliit na garden? Yung same sa city na paglabas daan, di huli ka kaagad?
May sense ang law. Ang problema hindi lang nabigyan diin ang dapat, at kung ano.
Sa mga kapulisan natin, sana naman timbangin din muna. Hindi ‘yung basta dampot na lang ng dampot.
Minsan nagkakaroon din kasi ng personal na interes na ‘di natin maaalis, lalo na ‘yung may mga alitan minsan. – JEFREY JOHN CAPIOSO, 37, overseas Filipino worker and resident of Maasin, Iloilo
I’m in favor that the police should arrest tambays. But they make it sure they are really tambays. Kay may ara gin-arrest nga kuno tambay gali nagahulat siya sa mga upod nya para mag obra.
Dapat before nila i-arrest ang tawo ask first sin-o ginahulat, diin dapit and ask the person kun siya gid man ginahulat, indi nga maga patarasak lang dakop. – NILO DELA CRUZ, Iloilo City
Indi ko ‘ya favor nga dakpon tambays to prevent crimes. Pwede man seguro nga advise-san sila magpuli na or we have to use ordinances especially sa mga minors and the liquor ban if sa Iloilo City to arrest them, not as tambays.
In the first place there is no anti-tambay law or any violation if magtambay ka. Before arresting a tambay, the police should have a law on tambays para no questions asked na and to prevent misunderstanding. – BOTCHOY, trisikad driver, Mandurriao, Iloilo City
Tambays should not be arrested immediately for being tambays. Other regulations may be invoked for making arrests such as curfews. – APPLE GRACE LAURO, registered nurse
If they violate laws, they should be arrested. If they don’t, there is no reason to arrest them. – FELLY MAE RAPISTA, Ajuy, Iloilo
Depende sa ila if may na-violate sila nga laws or ordinances sa ila lugar. – JANE from Molo, Iloilo City
