The 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution was a bloodless revolt partly due to then President Ferdinand Marcos’ decision not to be trigger-happy leader.

Ilocos Norte Governor Imee Marcos said she remembers her father during the EDSA anniversary and how he refused to heed clamor to bomb EDSA and the Radyo Veritas tower out of love for Filipinos.

“Kasi noong nagpupunta na yung mga tao sa EDSA at nagkakagulo na, maraming nagsusulsol sa Papa ko na pasabugin ang EDSA pati na ang tower ng Radyo Veritas,” Marcos told Presidential Communications Assistant Secretary Mocha Uson on Facebook.

“Ayaw ni Papa. Sabi niya PILIPINO ang mga iyan,” the lady governor said.
