At least we (most of us, anyway) don't live in the Philippines. This guy is completely unhinged.

What makes things like this even worse, is the reaction these sorts of statements get. Even the World Jewish Congress has just called for an apology. You can't apologize for things like this and move on. "Oh, he's sorry? No problem then." I guess in that regard, we shouldn't feel too superior after all...

Guy needs to smoke a doobie and relax.

He asking for an assassination.

I've thought a few times that there should be more written about Philippines politics. I mean, Cardinal Sin ffs. It'd make a great telenovela.

Pretty sure big time drug lords already put a bounty on duterte's head

If only Mexico could do this, maybe they ought to work together, Philippians can probably teach them Spanish too.

Well, we could talk about their efforts to push Americans out of the PI, abandoning a pair of the largest military bases in the world which were a huge boon to the local economies (Subic Bay Naval Supply Depot and Clark Air Force Base)

"I'm posting for effect, or perhaps I'm an utter pile of shit, you guys can play the guessing game!"


Ya this guy is asking for some freedom, I guess the US can be the savior of this island nation once again. Hopefully this time we can get out without them begging to become the 51st state.

Once you get started down the road of populism things have a tendency to get ugly.

He reminds me of Maine's Governor but with power.
