We need stricter firearms safety training for uniformed services
One thing that isn’t being discussed enough is how these student shooters are getting their hands on high-powered weapons. Look at the recent tragedies: in both cases, parehong nasa serbisyo ang mga pinanggalingan ng baril.
The recent ADZU shooting involved a weapon issued by the Bureau of Customs (BOC). This highlights a massive lack of responsible firearm safety and accountability across *all* our uniformed and law enforcement services.
If an officer cannot prove they have a secure, tamper-proof weapons locker with strict access control at home, they should not be allowed to bring their service firearms out of the office. Sa presinto o sa opisina lang dapat iwan ang baril pagkatapos ng duty. Negligent gun owners whose unsecured weapons are used in crimes need to face heavy criminal liability. #local #current_events
