    it came from you dude

    quote you again:

    Nobody complained when PNoy bought 911 -- who would have? Pnoy is Pnoy, people knew he can afford that kind of car (a second hand 911 if rumors are true), an elite for one

    nobody should complain that Noynoy has a 911 coz he's "an elite"

    that's you not me

    but because the guy standing beside the ferrari is a du30 ally, nobody said "nice car!"

    haha

    funny

    When people read magazines and saw a car with Bong Go or Leni Robredo there all smiles and flashing teeth, they might notice the car first before the person. But in the context of our example (that is, Farinas et al driving attitude in TPLEX), you cant help but notice the person driving or standing beside the fancy car, add the storyline and you will definitely do a second look on who's that smart ash, crack head guy who apparently and (lets choose safe words here) suspectedly breaking laws in TPLEX, and trying to get away with it.

    Sometime its just about the context, not about the party, not about the color. Wrong remains wrong whatever side you favor.

    Should be "Elites acting like decent and just should not be bashed". Hell, I dont care to bash Elites like ayalas for driving their gazzilion worth of rides up Tagaytay. Its about how they do it. These bothers usually went up riding their big bikes there, but they remain respectable because they act responsibly wherever they go. JAZA lined up at a CR in his very own factory, inside his very own science park to give you a example of what Im saying.

    Yet farinas, choose to be congressman wherever he go.

    Both can be called an elite by your measure, but I can draw the line between them easily

    So Aquino wasn't driving his 911 fast?


    Porsche no more: PNoy sells his sports car - Motioncars | Motioncars
    After being hounded by controversy and likely vehicle envy, President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III has sold his Porsche.

    Reports quote Aquino as saying, “(it is) putting unnecessary risk to the people who are guarding me, the Presidential Security Group.” The car does indeed pose a challenge for the PSG’s lumbering SUVs to chase after.

    This is exactly why I like PNoy's admin. He associates himself with decent people who just happen to be rich. Duterte is surrounded by hooligans, immoral barbarians just like him (and they are rich as well)

    As the old saying goes, money cannot buy class.

    Wait a sec. Now i don't know if P-Noy really did play Speed Racer on our roads, but at least in the context of the article, the highlighted text "The car does indeed pose a challenge for the PSG’s lumbering SUVs to chase after." is a comment made by the article's author, Jason K. Ang , it wasn't an admission from P-Noy.

    double standard

    Its meant to be driven fast -- but responsible driver knows where and when to do it. Where - is the heavy side.
    You think Farinas and his posh buddies never broke the speed limit? Why oh why were they flagged at the booths then?

    Good example of double standard.

    kaya pala when somebody posts a photo of a supercar they saw parked somewhere

    or stuck in traffic along edsa

    mga common reactions:

    1. walang plaka! walang conduction sticker! bawal yan!

    2. sino kaya corrupt govt official ito?

    3. why would anyone buy a car like that ang pangit ng kalye dito

    Its very hard to weigh fairness and logic because we tend to be fanatics and we defend our icons till the very end. Again, its not about the political views I have, yellow, reds, du30 or pnoy. Its about who's making good policies and actions.

    Its very clear Farinas is not on the right side, we castigate his actions not because he is affiliated with DU30, but because he did an ash move. Thats very shallow, when you say yellows or LP dont get the same treatment, simply because of the fact that farinas is DU30 cohort.

    ok to summarize the guy's point:


    Pag disenteng elitista, may karapatan mag ferrari, 911

    Pag hindi disenteng elitista, wala
