UP Students Who Keep Walking Out To Attend Rallies Should Be Considered For Expulsion
I just read the news where President Duterte threatened to replace UP students who keep walking out of classes to attend rallies with removing their slots in favor of bright Lumads. Here's what President Duterte said which is translated from Visayan:
These UP students who keep on walking out, earlier, they walked out. Okay. Those who don’t want to go to school, get out because I will bring the bright lumads there, I will enroll them there in UP. A lot of Filipinos want a good education.
So those who keep on demonstrating, don’t walk out of the rooms. I will give you a privilege, don’t go to school for a year because I will let all the Filipinos who want a good education in—it’s free there.

The truth of the matter is taxpayers' money is used for state-sponsored education. But what do these particular set of U.P. students do? They waste it by walking out of the classes that they should be attending -- instead of joining those stupid rallies.
What I suggest is that such a group of brats should be expelled from school. They are joining in life-threatening activities. These rallies are most likely organized by criminal groups that should be arrested and jailed for disturbing public peace and order. They don't deserve the tax money of Filipinos and they shouldn't benefit from free education that they just waste by attending rallies.
