JogBird Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - The real issue here is over-population causing strain on the limited resources.

Dec 21, 2011 - Refugies and unwanted people, they where born of the fucking earth, whos going to clame them if not the place the live.....

Dec 21, 2011 - Very insensitive people commenting on here. Have some heart asshole. The floods were a result of deforestation not because of overpopulation. We all know there is an issue with the population. Maybe you need to take you're own advice and do the future a favor.

LucidiaRevolution Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - The main issue here is people that show no humanity because they are too busy with concerns over the mythological "overpopulation." So many throughout history thought they were "overpopulated,", yes, even in ancient times, and used this as an excuse for war and genocide. Now, there are even death loving people that welcome natural disasters because it reduces the population. Lives are more important than your ridiculous myths. Consider efficient agri- and aquacultural technologies...

Dec 21, 2011 - Don't help them! They only got what they deserve, and they've only themselves to blame.If you pay them for their self-made desaster, they'll take it as a reward and continue as they did before.The environment belongs to all of us, and they don't have a right to destroy it just because they are squatting on it.

jdogsful Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - you're a prick, man. they didnt deserve that. They already have fuck all to divide between a few hundred million of their peers. racist!...

schlagerhansi Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - Wonder what that has to do with racism.And it hasn't anything to do with overpopulation.It has to do with destroying our natural environment out of greed.And we shouldn't support that -- they did deserve it!

kobedarott Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - I am thinking that not many of the people responsible for "destroying our natural environment" are among the dead & missing. These people don't even have claim to this land. No human deserves to be forced to start over like they are going to have to do (with nothing).

Dec 21, 2011 - i have nevered heard of a reverse tsunami how does that work again?

abel22lopez Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - illegal settlers where are they from originally?

DivineMoleculeDMT Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - Probably other parts of the Philippines. They wanted to settle somewhere else for farming maybe? I dont know much about this story so who knows.

niccividz Says:

Dec 21, 2011 - to the one who says that "Don't help them!They only got what they deserve, and they've only themselves to blame." May i give my point ... the main causes of the flood is illegal logging and deforestation.. And who are doing these? the wealthy people right.. and they aren't affected by this calamity.. the ones who suffer are the innocents.

TERRYMCKINNEY32 Says:

Dec 22, 2011 - Ignored!What a shock.Rebuild,why not just shoot yourself in the head?How many times have people cut down every tree and then all died out?How many more times?

jmbphilcrafts Says:

Dec 22, 2011 - Majority of owners of Hardware Store and Construction Supply were owned by politicians and rich families who tied up with illegal loggers. The DENR and local authorities had jurisdiction in overseeing and protecting the public land. " Tong collection" bribery,conivance were rampant in some offices giving licenses for the loggers that's why all trees in the mountains were cut off, which is one of the factor of flood.

hssa96 Says:

Dec 22, 2011 - WHAT ELSE IS NEW???? this happened in Quezon province way back in Dec 2004 just before the Indian ocean tsunami,same scenario only in a different place and time but the factors aggravating it is just the same...greedy politicians,denr people who keeps on issuing permits for logging companies (who's owners are either politicians or rich people or bussinessmen with political connections and so on) but when disaster strikes,only the marginalized sector of society are the once who are DEVASTATED

Dec 24, 2011 - You can't say just the people are complacent; the mayor and the government are complacent. Stop pointing fingers and take action. Give them a place and funds where they can not only rebuild, but thrive. Collect funds from those who are well off and insure it is used wisely (i.e. DON'T SHORT CHANGE THE POOR).
