A petition on Facebook is doing the rounds among the graduates of the Philippine Military Academy condemning Senator Antonio Trillanes IV for his conduct during the Senate committee hearing on extrajudicial killings on Thursday, Sept. 15, 2016.
“We, the undersigned, condemn in the strongest terms your behavior as a bully and your conduct unbecoming of a people’s senator,” according to the online petition initiated by Dan Jimenez, a Philippine Military Academy (PMA) alumnus, on Friday, Sept. 16, and has since been co-handled by Abe Purugganan, likewise a PMA graduate.
Jimenez pointed out that Sen. Trillanes’ actions do not reflect the characteristics of a PMA graduate.
“We are aghast and purely discombobulated that as a graduate of the revered and prestigious Philippine Military Academy, you showed you are not an officer, neither are you a gentleman,” Jimenez said, who maintains the blogs

The letter went on demanding “perhaps a simple apology will suffice that you may deserve understanding and forgiveness. Perhaps a little bit of humility and politeness will regain your humanity back.”
Senators Trillanes and Cayetano were locked in an argument during Thursday’s Senate hearing after the former turned off the latter’s microphone while he was grilling Senate committee witness Edgar Matobato.
As of posting, over 300 individuals, PMA alumni and ordinary citizens included, have had their names listed on the petition. It was posted in the public group “TheLongGrayLine” and has been shared over 3,000 times.
More than 2,800 people have also reacted to the post and have their names added to the list.
The petition may have been prompted by the clash between Sen. Trillanes and Sen. Allan Peter Cayetano, but Jimenez said in the letter that it resulted from Trillanes’ misconducts over the years.
“We have witnessed over the years that power and position have gone to your head and that you have crossed the point of no return. Your arrogance and self righteousness are phenomenal!” Jimenez wrote.

De Lima had a few moments earlier declared Cayetano out of order for ‘imputing bad faith and ill motive’ on the proceedings.(Jansen Romero / Manila Bulletin)
