Your responses to this idiot should be fun.
Being as Detroit Lakes is quite close to where I grew up, I have been there numerous times, and seen that TVststion too.
Being as I am in Davao City, as we speak, I can attest to the safety of the city. The people here, seem to be as sick of politicians as Ameticans are.
People shouldn't make the mistake of assuming people here think exactly like Americans. They don't, and Duterte, rightly, or whatever, has done what he felt was necessary to make Davao City safe. In that, again, rightly or whatever, he succeeded.
He also told those involved in the lag lag bala scandal, that if any airport worker was caught doing that, they were going to literally eat 38 caliber rounds. I believe he got their attention.
"TO HIS CREDIT ..... Duterte did turn one of the country’s most violent cities into arguably its safest while mayor of Davao City."
.. and then goes on to critisize the method(s) Duterte used to accomplish that feat
You want my "fun" response ?
How will YOU clean up crime in .. Oh, I don't know ... say ... Detroit ?
There ain't a beer drinkin' sumbitch that AIN'T said, "Kill the mfers" ...
Not ONE in the USA
I've followed Duterte for over two years and it IS true the comparison with Trump is amazing, but rather than criticize a man, try putting on your American history hat and consider ...
America came to be the land of the brave and home of the free because at ONE TIME .... ONE ERA ... a group of like minded men had been born at the exact same time in history and these men had almost identical thoughts about how things should be done and they met each other (Divine influence, IMO) and hatched out a nation conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men were created equal
THEY had their foibles, but they got the job done ... and you're a free man today because of them
You should be excited about the historical time you live in
