Duterte "happy to slaughter" drug suspects; mentions Hitler
www.sfgate.com
"MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte raised the rhetoric over his bloody anti-crime war to a new level Friday, comparing it to Hitler and the Holocaust and saying he would be 'happy to slaughter' 3 million addicts. Duterte issued his latest threat against drug dealers and users early Friday on returning to his hometown in southern Davao city after visiting Vietnam, where he discussed his anti-drug campaign with Vietnamese leaders and ways for their governments to fight transnational crimes, including illegal drugs. Does he want to be sent to the international criminal court? Because he's working his way there, Robertson said. Duterte's campaign promise to end corruption and crime, especially illegal drugs, within six months of taking office on June 30 carried him to an overwhelming victory in May's presidential election. Since the vote, more than 3,000 suspected drug dealers and users have been killed and nearly 700,000 others have surrendered in his crackdown. Duterte lashed out..."
There is an alternative to the "war" on drugs.
It's called Portugal. At Forbes.
Uncle Sam and Mexico should mimic Portugal.
But then the C.I.A. would be left out of the fun and profit. At The New American.

Here is an interesting article regarding how Europe is dealing with "child brides". In Muslim countries girls can be married off at extremely young ages to much older men. When they migrate to Europe is becomes illegal. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-35231046
Some countries are still enforcing the laws but others... For instance, Germany, home to Merkel and her open borders policy, for instance has allowed a 15 year old girl to stay married to a 21 year old man, though the case appears to still be in a legal limbo.
Denmark has allowed girls as young as 14 to stay married to adult men for this reason quoted in the article:
The DIS cited Denmark's "international obligations" as the trigger for its policy change, concluding that enforcing separate living quarters would violate the UN's Convention on the Rights of the Child and Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which guarantees the right to one's "private and family life".
I'm sure they're enforcing the law with a fury when it's white male citizens. Hey Denmark, what about a child's right to grow up without having to sexually abused by an adult man? How about a child's right not to be sold like a piece of meat?
This ties in with your article about Cologne Germany and feminists. Now, some feminists may have spoken out about this but I guarantee the majority of feminists have remained silent. Of course we know if a "white man" over the age of 18 had sex with a 14 year old they would universally be in a sanctimonious self righteous fury and condemn him as a pedophile, child sex abuser, etc..... When it comes to Muslim or black immigrants, suddenly there is silence or muted criticism at best.
The hypocrisy of feminism is a wonder to behold.
Drug dealers are being released by Obama as "non-violent"criminals.It is wrong to condone drug dealing in any manner,especially by giving the dealers minimal prison time.They potentially could have multiple overdose deaths on their hands--being accessory to murder at a minimum.Duterte is putting fear into lowlife dealers.I completely understand his disgust with the entire drug lifestyle.It's not productive for the individual or the nation.A crackdown here is warranted--not leniency--as offered by Obama/Clinton.

SF Gate is a left wing commie rag. What would expect from San Francisco. Repeating the old lies over and over. The CIA allowed the Nicaraguan contras to see cocaine in the U.S. to finance their [contra] military operations. That accusation has been studied right and left by many persons and in all cases has proven to be false. But forge that, says SF Gate.
Rodrigo is in a long line of national leaders that have expressed admiration for and a desire to be like Hitler. The clean sweep of the big broom approach to whatever the problem is.
The Portugal plan works only if the drug user wants to become clean and sober and give up all drug use in the future. Few in the U.S. want to do that.
Barry Seal killed himself by doing things he was not supposed to be doing. He not only did wrong things but know he was doing wrong things when he did them.
