When will it end, if ever?

The Cagayan de Oro City blast is just the latest of the series of attacks committed against civilians over the years, and these civilians have nothing to do with ideology or cause of whatever terrorist group that carried it out.

Newspaper reports tell us that six people were killed, with 48 suffering injuries, some life threatening, in the explosion that rocked Kyle Bistro in Rosario Arcade in that city. The victims were among the 100 physicians and medical representatives having their meal in the restaurant at the time. They had been attending a convention at a nearby hotel.
