(Even Prez Duterte’s wet dream of six executions daily after the anti-poor death penalty returns should console Hitler fans just a bit.) I remain adamantine and granitic in my opposition to a bloodthirsty policy of a Prez who even leads in perverting the clenched-fist-human-rights-salute. If I am among the naive alluded to in “[w]hat lawyers don’t get about Duterte,” so be it. Manny and Bato should face some probe but they enjoy immunity by shrewdly making sipsip to the Prez. A busy Prez has a right of course to “private time.” (The US Prez takes a vacation regularly.)
