Philippines at the moment has legal-vigilante justice,state sanctioned police execution squads,shoot you at home/work/in the street/wherever as long as your a low level drug user/seller/criminal or even wrong place wrong time,the real crims at the top of the ladder are safe as long as the guys at the bottom pay the price with a death to appease the masses.
