Duterte's a killer. In December 2016 reminiscing over his time as mayor of Davao, a city in the southern Philippines, Duterte was quoted saying: "In Davao I used to do it personally. Just to show to the guys (police) that if I can do it why can't you? And I'd go around in Davao with a motorcycle, with a big bike around, and I would just patrol the streets, looking for trouble also. I was really looking for a confrontation so I could kill."
