00:00A group of LGBTQIA+, who were the witnesses of Vice President Sara Duterte in the Philippine National Police,
00:09leaked a detail in the national news of Keith Pilotib of Radyo Pilipinas.
00:16So follow the lawful orders.
00:19Don't you know that it's already an injustice to the people.
00:27Don't be gay.
00:29This is the heavy statement of Vice President Sara Duterte
00:33against the Philippine National Police or PNP
00:36who is under arrest for the transfer of Atty. Zolaica Lopez
00:40to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center
00:42which is against the will of the Vice President to bring him to the St. Luke's Medical Center.
00:48Because of this, the group of LGBTQIA+,
00:52in the heavy statement of VP Sara,
00:54used these words in her speech.
00:58According to Bahaghari Community Chairperson Reina Valmores Salinas,
01:02the word gay should not be used to insult or use it in a negative way,
01:08especially to the police who are just doing their job.
01:12The statement shown by VP Sara Duterte is very clear and derogatory.
01:18Being gay is not an insult.
01:21Being gay is an insult.
01:23If there is an insult, it is not being a member of the LGBT community,
01:28but being a politician, an elected official
01:32who cannot answer the simple questions of the people
01:36about where the money went.
01:38They are dismayed at VP Sara
01:40because this is contrary to what she promised during the election
01:44of protection for their rights.
01:47When it comes to the election, they will say,
01:49they will say, for example,
01:51we are fighting for you, you are part of our program,
01:54but in practice, what they show is different.
01:57That is called trapo.
01:59And unfortunately, no matter how much we go back and forth,
02:02what VP Sara shows is trapo behavior,
02:06especially to the members of the LGBT community.
02:09Because of this, Bahaghari Community wanted the vice president to be prosecuted.
02:13We are at the preparatory stage for filing a complaint,
02:18especially against Vice President Sara Duterte.
02:21From Radyo Pilipinas News, Kate Piloting and for Balitang Pambansa.
