Burning Bush - I also despise drug dealers with a passion but I would prefer to have due process.

Tokyo-Engr, they are getting due process.

If Abe does that with Japan's chikans, people will support him

“does not care about human rights”.

And yet Burning Bush and others "love this guy". Pathetic.

There are better ways to reduce social destruction than through more social destruction.

This man is an idiot.

Dang... some folks beat me to the punch of my username... Now I'm depressed.

On a serious note, once he said:

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has vowed to maintain his “shoot-to-kill” order against drug dealers while in office and says he “does not care about human rights”.

He lost all credibility. The whole thing is about Human Rights. Taking that away from your own people and not caring about it, is going to result in gross human rights violations. Another dictator in the making? When is he going to start targeting political opponents and critics?
