He is sounding more and more like the illegitimate son of Al Capone and Griselda Blanco.

So....killing Drug addicts = killing Jews

I've seen some piss poor comparisons come by over the years but this....Wow, he really lost it now.

Looked so promising when I first read it.

A tougher grip on drug lords.

Now it looks like he's killing of some nobody street rats while the lords just find another hopeles smuck to sell of €20 of drugs before getting shot. Using the system to whack some opposition and maybe even secure a drug monopoly in the country by making sure his death squads only target rival drug dealers, ignoring his own.

He makes Putin look like Miro Cerar

But he's getting results!

That's all well and good in some peoples views but they obviously aren't one of those 'results'.

And there we have the whole crux of the 'strongman' leader, who punishes a group of people, if you're not part of those people then it doesn't matter to you, and it's a good thing...so long as you're not one of those people...

The old lessons still need learning:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
