Throughout Rodrigo Duterte’s presidential campaign, it didn’t much seem as though the renegade Davao City mayor cared whether what he was saying was offensive or politically correct. He “joked” about not getting the chance to rape an Australian minister who was taken hostage, raped and killed in his country in 1989. He says he’ll execute 100,000 criminals. And, while Pope Francis was visiting Manila, causing massive traffic jams in the capital, Duterte said he felt like calling up the spiritual leader of most of his country’s population and telling him: “Pope, son of a whore, go home. Don’t visit anymore.” MORE
