Killing drug dealers us tyranny? ROFL!

It's cleaning the country up!

If the ruler of a nation is able to authorize ordinary citizens to kill drug dealers and addicts, that is the kind of tyranny you don't wish to live under. For one thing, what if someone who doesn't like you decides to kill you and plant enough drugs on you to show you are a "dealer?" How do you feel about that?

What have you ever seen or experienced to justify your passionate anti-drug disposition? Have you or has someone close to you been damaged by recreational drug use? If so, tell us about it.

Drug lords put out bounty on Duterte..

Filipino drug lords pitch in to raise $21 million for ‘Kill Duterte’ fund
14th June 2016 - THE Philippines’ most notorious drug and crime lords are pooling their wealth to raise P1 billion (US$21 million) for a bounty on incoming President Rodrigo Duterte and several others.

According to the INQUIRER.net, the crime bosses were mostly drug lords currently inside the New Bilibid Prison (NBP) who are making a bid to have the Davao city mayor, his anointed Philippine National Police (PNP) chief, a senator and another government official killed. A source told the news site that the high-profile inmates decided to start the ‘Kill Duterte fund’ after no one took up the 50 million peso (US$1.084 million) reward for the ‘hit’ on Duterte and the Chief Supt. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa. That bounty was increased from P10 million (US$216,980) to P50 million as there were no takers. “Not only one person will pay, but people from different organizations,” the source said. “There are probably 20 main players.”

The source said each the main players would pitch in P50 million for the fund, bringing the total fund to P1 billion. Duterte has encouraged the public to help him in his war against crime and urged citizens with guns to shoot and kill drug dealers who resist arrest. He told the public that they would be rewarded if they helped him in the war against criminal elements.

The kill-list also included former Justice Secretary now Senator Leila de Lima and Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) chief Ricardo Rainier Cruz III, who were instrumental in dismantling the ‘luxurious’ New Bilibid Prison cells that housed the drug lords. In Dec. 2014, De Lima led the initial raids inside the Bilibid where some inmates were discovered living in upscale condominium-like Kubols (huts), fully equipped with saunas, wide-screen television sets, Wi-Fi and air-conditioners. The raids saw 19 top-level criminals, mostly drug lords, transferred to other prison facilities.

Mebbe we should be doin' what Duterte's doin'...

Philippines Seizes Huge Haul of Suspected Meth, Arrest 6
DEC. 23, 2016 — Philippine authorities seized more than half a metric ton of suspected methamphetamine Friday in suburban Manila and arrested six people in what could be one of the largest drug seizures under President Rodrigo Duterte.

National Bureau of Investigation agents initially seized about 100 kilograms (220 pounds) of the substance, locally known as shabu, in six bags and arrested four Filipinos in a car in the upscale Greenhills residential district, metropolitan Manila police spokeswoman Kimberly Molitas said. Almost simultaneously, other agents raided a nearby house and found about 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) of meth and arrested two suspects believed to be Chinese. An initial estimate placed the street value of the suspected meth at more than 3 billion pesos ($60 million).

SWAT and police teams surrounded the house, which was near a main road and a shopping center, while agents examined the bags of drugs, along with drug-making equipment, found in the house and a parked truck. Officials said the drugs may have been manufactured elsewhere and stored in the house for distribution. The raids were conducted by the NBI backed by other police. Duterte has been waging a brutal crackdown against illegal drugs since he took office in June. More than 6,000 suspected drug users and dealers have been killed, alarming U.S. and U.N. officials and human rights advocates.

More than 2,000 of the slain suspects died in purported gunbattles with the police, including a detained town mayor, who was said to have hidden a gun and illegal drugs in his cell and reportedly chose to shot it out with policemen in a clash last month that killed him and another inmate in a central Philippine jail. The NBI, Manila's counterpart of the FBI, said in an investigation that the mayor was killed in a rubout by the policemen, who raided the jail, but Duterte backed the officers and said he believed their claim that the mayor died in a firefight despite the finding.

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein asked Philippine authorities Tuesday to investigate Duterte for murder after he claimed to have killed people in the past and also to examine the "appalling epidemic of extra-judicial killings" committed during his anti-drug crackdown. Duterte angrily responded to Zeid's call with an expletives-laden outburst Thursday, saying the U.N. human rights chief has no right to order around a government helping fund the world body. "You son of a bitch I'm paying your salary," Duterte said. "You idiot, you don't tell me what to do."

Actually this is a very good idea. Reduces street crime, reduces gang activity, frees the rehabilitation budget for paying Christmas bonus to police executives.

Rogue officers kidnap and kill a South Korean man...

Philippine police stop anti-drug crackdown amid scandal
Jan 30,`17 -- The Philippine police chief has stopped the use of the national police force in anti-drug operations and disbanded all police anti-narcotics units after the brutal crackdown was used as a cover by rogue officers to kidnap and kill a South Korean man.

Police Director-General Ronald Dela Rosa told police officers Monday he would use the indefinite halt of anti-drug operations to launch a massive purge of police involved in crimes.

Members of the 170,000-strong force will not conduct raids, serve arrest warrants or visit the homes of drug suspects, though other anti-drug agencies will continue the crackdown.

President Rodrigo Duterte says his crackdown, which has been criticized internationally for its high death toll and possible human rights violations, will continue until the last day of his six-year term.

Philippines to suspend drug war to clean up 'corrupt' police
30 January 2017 - Philippine police are suspending their controversial war on drugs until after the "corrupt" police force has been "cleansed".

Police Chief Ronald dela Rosa said on Monday that anti-drug units would be dissolved. It comes after the murder of a South Korean businessman inside police headquarters. He had been kidnapped and killed by anti-drug police. More than 7,000 people have been killed since the crackdown on drugs began. The death toll and President Rodrigo Duterte's hardline stance against drugs have attracted intense criticism from human rights groups and Western countries, although the president continues to enjoy a high level of support among Filipinos. Speaking on Monday, Mr Dela Rosa said Mr Duterte "told us to clean the organisation first". "We will cleanse our ranks... then maybe after that, we can resume our war on drugs."

Mr Duterte has made tackling drug use in the Philippines a central part of his presidency. He had initially promised to eradicate the problem by December, then extended the deadline to March this year. But he told reporters at a press conference late on Sunday: "I will extend it to the last day of my term... March no longer applies." Mr Duterte's term ends in 2022. He said he had underestimated the depth of the drug problem.

Jonathan Head, South East Asia correspondent, BBC News: Police too tainted

For eight months President Duterte has been unrepentant as the death toll from his drug war has risen. He has repeatedly promised to support, even pardon, any police officers accused of unlawful killing, and been unmoved even by the clear evidence of police involvement in the drug trade, and the murder of important drug suspects in police custody. But the shocking murder of South Korean businessman Jee Ick-joo last October has forced Mr Duterte to acknowledge that the Philippines National Police are too tainted to continue running the anti-drugs campaign. Mr Duterte now accuses the police force of being "corrupt to the core". He has ordered all tainted officers to be sent to front-line duty in the conflict-wracked southern Philippines.

Even if this happens, though, it will not necessarily bring the drug killings to an end. More than 4,000 of the deaths are blamed on unidentified hit squads, although many of those are believed to be run by the police. And the president's promise to extend the anti-drug campaign to the end of his term of office suggests he may try to revive it once the fuss about the murdered South Korean dies down. Senator Leila De Lima, Mr Duterte's most vocal critic, said the president and the police chief "should categorically give the order to end the killings". She said the dismantling of the police anti-narcotics operation meant "they are aware that the very men involved in anti-drug operations... are involved in illegal activities under the guise of the so-called war on drugs," she told ANC television.

It would also be ridding the country of a democrat voting base. God knows Obama got the felon and drug dealer vote for commuting sentences and the Virginia government allowing felons to vote.

In the second Naked Gun film, Frank Drebbin is being honored for his 1,000th drug dealer killed. He accepts the applause and says. "Actually, I backed over the last one with my car, but luckily he turned out to be a drug dealer."

As a comedy comment on our society, it was funny. As a plan for our society, not so much.
