Listen to me. I\u2019m determined to kill a hundred thousand drug dealers and users and to fatten fish in Manila Bay where I\u2019ll dump all destroyers of our children. I won\u2019t actually be doing the killing and the lifting and dumping, of course. I\u2019m president of the Philippines and before that was the feared and respected mayor of Davao City which I cleaned up by gunning people down. Stiffs in gutters don\u2019t sell drugs. I mean it. But I\u2019m not really saying Barack Obama is the son of a whore or that lots of other critics in politics, the media, and religion are the same. No, they\u2019re just disrespectful people who must understand they can\u2019t throw questions and statements in my face. I\u2019m no son of a bitch.<\/p>\n

In my first couple of months as president, my police and our vigilantes have killed about twenty-five hundred people. That\u2019s the kind of action I promised. Filipinos who recently elected me would be outraged if I did less. My mandate\u2019s clear, and critics here and elsewhere better learn to keep their mouths shut or we\u2019ll be wallowing like pigs in mud. That’s not literal but a warning. Don\u2019t fuck with me. I enjoy making threats and carrying them out and won\u2019t be surprised if, at the end of my term, I\u2019ve killed a lot more than a hundred thousand enemies. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
