Senator Juan Ponce Enrile was convicted because of the case
plunder and 15 cases of grafts. About the Senator, people were being so
merciful about the 90-year-old former senate president because some said that
he should be house arrest because of his condition. My point is, the law
imputes knowledge of all laws to all persons within the jurisdiction no matter
how transiently. Even though it would be impossible, even for someone with
substantial legal training, to be aware of every law in operation in every
aspect of a state's activities, this is the price paid to ensure that willful
blindness cannot become the basis of exculpation. I know that the Senator was
not ignorance of the law but he’s not excuse for what he had done. Our law states
that if a person has break some regulation, he or she will be put behind bars. So
the question is, do we say mercy for those sinners or mercy for us what they
thieve to us? I hope everyone should learn that ignorance of the law excuses no
one because even the superiors itself are being to put into penitentiary, what
about us that we are the ones who are lifting the foots of our leaders who are
leading us to downfall?
