Philippine presidential candidate front-runner Davao city mayor Rodrigo Duterte gestures as he greets the crowd during his final campaign rally in Manila, Philippines on Saturday May 7, 2016. After crisscrossing the archipelago nation, the five presidential candidates, led by Mayor Rodrigo Duterte, converged in the vote-rich capital Manila as three months of bruising campaigning came to an end ahead of Monday’s election. “All of you who are into drugs, you sons of bitches, I will really kill you,” Duterte told the huge crowd, using his typically coarse style of speaking. Duterte also once cursed Pope Francis, who had caused a huge traffic jam during a visit to Manila last year that trapped the mayor for hours. “I have no patience, I have no middle ground, either you kill me or I will kill you idiots,” he said as the crowd cheered.
