Members of Pro-Life Philippines, led by President Eric Manalang, harass RH Bill supporters, which included mothers from the Democratic Socialist Women of the Philippines (DSWP) and members of the Filipino Freethinkers (FF).
This video clearly shows
1) that although the RH supporters were denied entry, Marita Wasan, executive director of Pro-Life Philippines, told them that they could wait outside while the mass was going on. They were not asked to leave (at least not until Manalang's outburst.)
2) that there was no "exchange" of harsh words -- all the insults and violence came from the Anti-RH side.
3) that the RH Supporters were respectful -- they were silent and calm even when Manalang and others insulted the RH Supporters and even shoved and tried to take away the cameras of some.
4) that Manalang and Pro-Life Philippines, aside from calling RH Supporters "Satan" also resorted to the following insults:
* "[A Catholic supporting the RH Bill] is an oxymoron" (in response to one of the DSWP mothers saying that she was still a Catholic despite her support for the RH Bill).
* "Your mother should have aborted you" (several Pro-Life members were recorded shouting this while the RH Supporters were leaving Manila Cathedral)

This is an article and a video from the Filipino freethinkers. I just realized from the view point of the president of the pro-life, the people who are Pro rh bill are people who are demons and sons of satan. If they were really for the church they wouldn’t say so, they were cursing and giving names.
And, they should have been aborted? Why would he say that? He should have been aborted then.
I think it is right to take the bill seriously, but people have no right to hurt others physically or emotionally or in whatever such way they can.
