‼️STOP SCROLLING‼️

filipinos are only days away (july 9th) from losing their freedom of speech. if this bill passes, their primary rights will be taken away. filipinos need our help and there’s barely any talk about it.
the anti-terror bill grants the government the power to define what constitutes as terrorism. to them, terrorists are anyone who speaks against the government.
the bill also allows police, law enforcement, and military personnel duty to arrest people WITHOUT warrants and just for simply using their voices, and protesting or criticizing the government. they can even be jailed for sharing memes.
also police brutality is already a big problem and has happened in the past but this bill will make them abuse their power even more.
please read through this and educate yourself, it barely takes any time at all! https://junkterrorbill.carrd.co/ 
their government doesn’t look at petitions so it would be most effective to send an email instead.

Subject: JUNK TERROR BILL
Body: We urge for the rejection of the so-called “Anti-Terror Bill” to protect the fundamental rights of the Filipinos to freedom of speech.
even if petitions won’t be the most effective thing, they are a good way to spread awareness and it doesn’t hurt or take any time to sign them! http://chng.it/pGpqkfGfhR 
also i am not filipino so if i am overstepping or crossing boundaries, please let me know. i don’t want to be spreading misinformation or misusing terms.

i’m sure that i missed some things so feel free to leave more resources in the replies and i will gladly add them.
