"Shoot them dead": Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte orders police and military to kill citizens

Let me clarify; as I mentioned, civil war in this country is highly unlikely; in a worse case scenario, where armed civilians take up arms against the civilian authorities and civilians, the military would be forced to step in to stop the violence (or civil war as some in this forum might call it) and if the armed civilians started firing at the military, they'd be forced to take action, if for nothing else to defend themselves and other civilians.

I also think that too many people in this country don't understand the violence that would occur in a civil war; the death and destruction of human lives and property not including the economic depression that could follow as a result. For those reasons given, that is why I think civil war is very unlikely to occur, especially on a national scale.

 

Our police should use tear gas and rubber bullets to quell demonstrations, sit-ins, riots, and what have you if those folks want to risk letting the corona get on them, and then the corona get on you. The risk is real. Minimal force like tear gas should solve the problem, next step rubber bullets. You don't want police to have to go in, touch people, cuff people, and put their own selves at risk.

 

How misinformed you are. The Tet offensive nearly wiped the entire PAVN force out. It was the Vietcong and a self righteous ROE made the war unwinnable for the US.

 

Yeah that's what you call people who nationalise things... like her Clinton foundation is nationalising South Africa's Private Health system

 

Hill-Dog plays to corporate fat cats just as much as any other politician.
And nationalized healthcare is not communism.

 

I hate to disappoint you but it was the North Vietnam troops who won the war in 1975 after the US had pulled out of 'Nam. The cong were rendered mostly useless as a major threat after the Tet offensive.

 

that is your opinion... and it is wrong, communists believe in a small wealthy elite ruling over the masses... go and learn about communism... it is equal poverty for all except for the tiny elite...

btw South Africa is now a communist country and this is largely due to the Clinton & Soros Foundations....
For Hillary & Communism... it is next stop America
