Seems to be around ten o'clock PM Philippine time, ten AM our (eastern) time
thought the Philippines was a land of peace and a great retirement home for all our ex patriots...
Someone just slashed two tires ... !

Oh, I’m a pro-Trump American in Kentucky. I was writing from my wife’s point of view; she’s from Mindanao.
The Filipinos are brave beyond belief, read up on how they stood up to the sons of Nippon when they were occupied.
And everyone of them knows of and loves MacArthur
Wasn’t WVKayaker from Davao City? I hope Marlene and her family escaped harm.
I didn’t know there were any Amish communities in the Philippines.
Yes, and we haven’t heard from Mark yet
I just did a search on him and he was posting around noon, but I didn’t see any mention of the bomb.
Why is the media ignoring this? Heeding Kerrys’ request not to report about terrorism? I checked Fox and din’t see any report.
A few minutes ago she told me about this bombing. She's now afraid to travel.
She was stationed in Davao prior to her current assignment in Roxas. She loved Davao, said it was very clean and safe compared to other places.
I think she'll be safe. Now to convince her. (How sucessful is convincing a Pinay of anything?)
Because the victims are little brown people, and the media hasn't yet figured an angle to blame Trump.
Their "agenda" always is a higher priority than reporting news.
children chairs and baby stroller. Demon Allah strikes again... after all these infidel party goers, clearly deserve the wrath of a phony god who is impotent to carry out his own murderous will without his sycophantic cadre of dregs.
The local police commander says they don’t yet know if it was a bomb or an LPG explosion. That is fairly common there, as fire safety is very low on the priority list of street vendors. Wait and see.
And everyone of them knows of and loves MacArthur
That’s right. And all the GI’s.
Hope so too...
She called me on the phone to ask if I had heard about it. I had been at the monthly Men of Integrity dinner, not that close to Marco Polo hotel, the main Philippine Air Lines office, Ateneo Davao college and the Roxas Blvd open air market.
I had gotten home about 9:45 PM, and I think the bombing was about 10PM. I didn't even know that Duterte was in town.
I heard there was a huge gun battle between the Philippine Army and Abu Sayyaf to the west of Cagayan de Oro in the last day or two. Most of the Muzzies are out west, but I see some in Davao City, but they tend to keep to themselves, and don't bother people. My brother in law's wife is a Muzzie, but she doesn't believe in all this foolishness I guess she is a MINO, Muzzie in name only. Now, Abu Sayyaf is a whole different ballgame. Even SHE is scared to death of them. Since I heard Duterte said he wanted to wipe them out, maybe this is their response. All 7 major malls will be closed today.
