They shoot drug users in the streets…

Sunday on Full Measure, we have an incredible cover story from The Philippines where President Duterte is drawing international attention for his radical tactics in fighting drug crimes and Islamic extremist terrorism: he has given the green light for police and ordinary citizens to shoot down drug dealers–and users–in the streets without trial.

And he’s installed martial law in the troubled southern region where ISIS is said to be moving in. We’ll talk to President Duterte’s vocal opponents and also some of his supporters as he enjoys popularity ratings that are the envy of any national leader.

Drug *users*? Maybe not.Not for a first offense certainly.
= = =

If the ‘user’ is out in public, it’s probably not the first offense.

It’s their country to vote for and control the government they deserve.

The solution to a corrupt legal system is to ignore it and institute basic justice.

Killing corrupt judges would probably work, too.

>>Maybe you should wake up to the fact that criminal scum should be flushed down the sewers instead of being protected by the corrupt courts.<<

Exactly how I feel about it. These drug dealers are as destructive to the countries where they’re operating as ISIS, maybe more so. Shoot the bastards ON SIGHT!

You would think so, but so, but it doesn’t work. I’ve spent some time studying the family court system that regularly locks people up without a jury trial. Men responded by murdering judges(rarely reported by the media). It had no effect on the system.

That’s pretty strong evidence that killing corrupt judges isn’t useful while ignoring them is. The other issue isn’t just a few corrupt judges, but rather an entire system that’s corrupt thus killing any individual isn’t useful. By ignoring the system you rob them of all their power.

>>Just like in America leftists own the legal system and used it against the law abiding. The solution to a corrupt legal system is to ignore it and institute basic justice.<<

That is exactly what Obama’s agenda was. He did everything he possibly could to corrupt the legal system in America, and I predict that if President Trump fails to drain the D.C. swamp BONE DRY the people will organize their own methods of defense against the lawlessness and corruption.

Look to history.

This nation is an aberration from the norm and is rapidly trending towards equilibrium.

Democracies always commit suicide.

America ceased being a Republic in 1865.

We are now a democracy, just like Venezuela

This democracy is controlled by Washingtonians and the oligarchs, who also control the press and use them to spread lies and keep the masses in check.

These degenerate scumbags are at this very minute plotting to steal hundreds of billions of dollars from the American Middle Class, and dare to call it tax reform.

They won’t be stopped by anything other than military action.

The natural state of a civil, productive, and fair human society is benevolent dictatorship, one that deals with domestic and foreign enemies with an iron fist..

Our country is headed there, somebody needs to round up the criminals and restore order.

Anybody who doesn’t understand this, who thinks that this freak show we are witnessing is somehow going to fix itself and get better, is delusional.

Killing ALL the corrupt judges might work.

China executed all dealers and users to wipe out the opium epidemic - it worked.

>>Yeah, much better to institute a hugh, enormously expensive fedgov that searches and seizes property of innocent citizens while the dealers get off on technicalities after years of being taxpayer funded defendants.

This Filipino guy puts the “war” in the “War on drugs”.<<

You have it exactly right.

Shooting anyone dealing would be ok.

So, would you have called George Washington “messed up” when he ordered us to kill the British on our own ground?

The situation is that both the police and the general citizenry have the right to arrest people involved in drug offenses and bring them to the nearest precinct for questioning and investigation.

If they resist either through force or fleeing then lethal force may be used.

Whenever lethal force is used for subdual is used, there will be an investigation as to what truly happened, and the appropriateness thereof.

We should have the death penalty for drug dealers in America.

“I would not mind large scale drug dealers being executed here. “

They do it in Singapore. They have signs in the airport that read “DADA means Death!”
DADA being drugs. Same in Malaysia.
