On Monday, Father Robert Reyes said that the war on drugs of Duterte administration is "immoral" and priest will not support their operation.
“Our conscience tells us not to be part of an operation we have determined to be immoral. The war on drugs is immoral,” Father Reyes said.
“You do not solve a health issue with police force. Ang droga, hindi crime. That’s what you have to address first. He is sick and therefore, he needs medical attention,” He added.
If you could remember, last March when PNP Chief Director General Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa announced the relaunching of oplan double barrel, he mentioned that priest and even local officials can help and join their anti drug operations.
Also, Senator Panfilo Lacson defended that cops do not operate users, but only pushers.

However, Reyes insisted that some of the persons who killed were still sleeping.
“Dami natutulog lang sa bahay, tapos binaril tapos lalagyan ng cardboard na pusher,” Father Reyes said.
Furthermore, Father Reyes said that the war on drugs inflicts punishment.
“Hindi lahat ng pulis ay pasaway pero kung babalikan yung mga salita ng Pangulo, sinasabi niya ‘go ahead, ako bahala.” Kaya may impunity,” Father Reyes said.
Meanwhile, Senator Lacson said to the church that they are welcome to present witnesses at the hearing against the killings of drug suspects.
