The killing of drug dealers needs to be done. Plain and simple.
I think the US govt is making a terrible mistake by intervening though. Its exactly as he says, theyre pretending to "know better" and be the conscience of the world

No it fucking doesn't. Not like this anyway. What's wrong with prison, etc? Where do you think the drugs are coming from anyway? You actually think street level drug dealers are able to peddle drugs in the Philipines without the help of corrupt people at the top? How many people do you think are going to die at the top? Here's a hint: none.

I disagree, it does because
The country is too poor for holding that many prisoners.
The drugs are coming from the chinese and taiwanese, mainly the chinese. If you knew anything about this topic you would know that. The drugs in the United States and Mexico are also derived from raw ingredients china ships to Mexico. As a general approach to thinking about how the chinese run as many scams as they do, realize that they have been allowed to have much of the manufacturing facilities (and resources), and they typically ship partially finished products places to smuggle them in and complete the finishing process after they've dodged whatever tax/rule/law/moral/cost they wanted in order to achieve their political goals. Filipinos in general do not approve of drugs.
Here's a hint: as I originally said. You are uneducated about the topic you're talking about. Now that you've been told, you know a lot more. But as a rule, you shouldn't talk about things you don't know about.
Anticipated response "Bllaarrggghh but I know people need alive. No kill,. All life is worth it pllrrarghh!" And you'd be a retard for saying that.
