15 minutes ago


Philippines' President Rodrigo Duterte has admitted he personally killed criminal suspects as mayor of Davao.

It is the first such admission he has made since becoming president in June, but echoes comments he made in 2015.

He ran the southern city for two decades, earning a reputation for cutting crime, and criticism for allegedly supporting death squads.

Mr Duterte was speaking to business leaders at the presidential palace on Monday, before an overseas trip.

7. Coming soon to US cities, from coast to coast

The Police Death Squads...armed with military equipment! Authorized to obtain warrants without any real evidence, can fire on children without fear of being prosecuted, able to shoot people of color(because that's who all the drug dealers, are )!

And for those suspects who get to see a judge, the trial will be over quickly...and the sentence will be carried out the same day!

Much like the courts of Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, Maoist China, and that bastion of democracy North Korea...American courts will become similar!!!

8. Well, Trump did say he could shoot someone down on 5th Avenue and not lose supporters

And now he'd have Secret Service protection as he carried out the deed.

What a total miserable excuse for a human being. Okay, I feel sick again. Not to mention very-very scared.
