The world saw what happened.
A fifteen-year-old Filipino wrote an apology.
In the middle of the situation, the negotiator said everything was calm; everything is under control. If we recall, Cpt. Mendoza was seen at the door of the bus looking calm and composed.
But the situation shifted.
The bus driver said that everything turned out to be different when the police tried to arrest his brother, and the media was showing it live on tv. Everything as in everything that happened when the brother was being arrested.
I was feeling cold as I watch it live. I felt tense about the situation. It was like watching an action-packed film, but a whole lot more (a whole effin' lot more) because this is not a movie. It is really happening and Filipinos and the whole world are watching.
If you were Gregorio's brother, the hostage-taker, how would you feel?
The driver tells his story here.
