*tches, I Will Really Kill You”

This is a really bizarre way to encourage people to support your bid for
elected office. I can’t imagine voting for a person who said these kinds of
things.
From The Big Story:
A brash and tough-talking mayor who has pledged to kill suspected
criminals and end crime within six months looked set to become the next
president of the Philippines after taking an unassailable lead in an
unofficial vote count in Monday’s elections.
The son of late dictator Ferdinand Marcos had a narrow lead in the vice
presidential race.
Rodrigo Duterte, the mayor of southern Davao city, had secured more than
14.4 million votes, according to a count of 87 percent of precincts
nationwide. The closest of his four main rivals, former Interior Secretary
Mar Roxas, had 8.6 million votes. Final results are expected Tuesday.
“We can call it now because the gap got so big relative to the maximum
the No. 2 can get” of the remaining votes, said William Yu of the Parish
Pastoral Council for Responsible Voting. The group is accredited by the
Commission on Elections to conduct the unofficial “quick count.”
A victory by Duterte would amount to a massive political shift in the
Philippines. Starting as an outsider, Duterte built his popularity with
radical pledges to eliminate poverty and end corruption and crime. He has a
reputation for fighting crime as mayor of Davao for 22 years, but has been
accused of ordering extrajudicial killings to achieve that.
On the last day of campaigning Saturday, he made clear he intends to
continue his hard-line approach.
“All of you who are into drugs, you sons of bitches, I will really kill
you,” Duterte, 71, a former prosecutor, told a rally. “I have no patience
, I have no middle ground, either you kill me or I will kill you idiots.”
Statements such as that have won him the nickname “Duterte Harry,” a
reference to the Clint Eastwood movie character “Dirty Harry” who had
little regard for rules. He has also been compared to Donald Trump, the U.S.
Republican presumptive presidential nominee.
Duterte is known for jokes about sex and rape, talking often about his
Viagra-fueled sexual escapades, and for undiplomatic remarks about Australia
, the United States and China, all key players in the country’s politics.
He has threatened to dismiss the Philippine Congress and form a
revolutionary government if he is confronted with uncooperative legislators.
Outgoing President Benigno Aquino III tried to discourage Filipinos from
voting for Duterte over fears the mayor may endanger the country’s hard-
fought democracy and squander economic gains of the last six years, when the
Philippine economy grew at an average of 6.2 percent, one of the best rates
in Asia.
But on election day, with opinion polls giving him the best chance to
win, Duterte reached out to his opponents.
“Let us be friends,” he said at a news conference after voting in
Davao. “Let us begin the process of healing.”
And I thought American elections were intense… | f****g 发帖数: 23666 | 2 奥黑驴:贩毒,小case,俺送你们出大牢。
