President Duterte, handang magpakulong ng dahil sa kanyang war on drugs. “When you save your country from the perdition of the people like the NPAs and drugs, you are doing a sacred duty.”
“Kaya kung mamatay ka, kasi galit ako sa droga. Iyon ang sinasabi ko. Kung iyon ang sinasabi ko, dalhin ninyo ako sa korte para ikulong. Fine, wala akong problema. If I serve my country by going to jail, gladly.
Pero ayusin lang ninyo ang kaso ninyo because the love of country or the highest interest of the country, the health and the welfare of the people are really the paramount concern. Hindi ‘yan — hindi ‘yung masabi mong hindi.
Kaya kung may patayan diyan, sabi ko ako ang… Hold me — you can hold me responsible for anything, any death that has occurred in the execution of the drug war. Pero huwag ninyo akong bintangan diyan sa patayan na hindi mo alam kung sino ang pumatay.
Karamihan alam mo, ang pulis ‘pag nakapatay, nag-report ‘yan. Diyan kunin ninyo ang report. Pag-aralan ninyo bago ninyo — bago kayo magdaldal o bago kayo magdemanda.
Pero ‘yung random killings diyan, hindi ko alam kung rivals sila, o utang, o tinakbo ba ‘yung pera ng — hindi nag-remit sa pera ng droga, or it could be hatred and something else. It could be a fight over a woman.
So payag ako. Just charge with the correct indictment. Huwag ‘yung basta-basta lang kayo mag — magsabi na punta kayo ng — ‘yung crime against humanity. Kailan pa naging humanity itong p***** i**** mga drug na ito? L****.
Iyan ang sinisira na ano — humanity. And what are they doing? Aren’t they killing humanity also? At 1.6 destroyed — one million point six destroyed lives, anong… Who’s going to answer for it? Kayo?
Do you have a program? Do you have money to contribute to the rehabilitation of these poor people? Wala kayong… Tapos kung may mamatay na pulis, wala kayong sabihin. Ang I have lost so many policemen in connection with the implementation of the law against drugs.
When you save your country from the perdition of the people like the NPAs and drugs, you are doing a sacred duty.
Maraming salamat po.”
