I have also read a few of the articles related to this alleged "incident", and by and large most of them are trying to sensationalise what appears to have been a relatively straightforward crowd control issue. It's a fairly typical response from a largely unprofessional and commonly far from neutral media in the Philippines.
The supporters of these vigilantes (i.e. the Catholic Church) really need to have a good hard look at themselves and ask whether sacrificing thousands of workers and their families future, and the inevitable social backlash is a price they're actually willing to pay.
But agreed, finally a glimmer of hope.
