00:00If the Commission on Elections in Comelec will ask,
00:03a one-strike policy should be implemented on those who fight the Comelec gun ban.
00:09That's what Comelec Chairperson George Erwin Garcia said in an interview with Radyo Pilipinas.
00:15Next, the Philippine National Police is pursuing a lifetime ban.
00:20Garcia insists that gun ban violators should be taught a lesson
00:24because they are violating two laws.
00:27If there is no exemption from the Comelec,
00:29Comelec should call the PNP and ask them to monitor the election closely,
00:35especially regarding loose firearms.
00:37As of now, 2,200 individuals have been arrested for violating the Comelec gun ban.
00:45For me, we should apply a strike one policy
00:49because you know, two people will be arrested if they are caught with a gun without an exemption from the Comelec.
00:57The violation of the Comelec gun ban and number two,
01:00it will become an illegal possession of firearms
01:02because there is no permission for their guns to be released.
01:07So that should be a one-strike policy
01:10so that they will not be able to bring guns outside the residence whether there is an election or not.
