In my experience when a leader claims he is "cleaning up" anything by killing people without due process it is usually just his opposition that is being taken out.

If he was a legit reformer he would not talk as crazy as he does.

Amazing how many people fall for anyone who they think is "acting tough".

Acting tough? He's not acting, he's following thru on the promises that he made to the Filipino's if they elected him as President.

Have you ever been there? Or are you just reading the media and acting like you know what you are talking about?

This is the fun part about the media, they don't always report the whole truth.

You see, he does indeed go after dealers, but evidence is required ahead of time. When they approach a dealer, they are given a chance to surrender, if they refuse and run, well, we know what happens next, they use any force necessary to bring them down.

When he names corrupt officials, same thing. They are given a chance to surrender and submit to a trial. if they resist or run instead, well that's on them.

I wonder what he would say about Obama if he suddenly started have hundreds of people killed just because he claimed thwy were drug dealers.  Something tells me Mike M would not be pleased with this type behavior.

I'd have very little issue with that as long as the evidence backs up any killings.

Obama is worried about the inhumane killings going on in the Philippines? There's plenty of other countries for him to worry about. Start with some of them.
