We have to ask: Is this for real?
A Facebook user who is obviously not a fan of incoming President Rodrigo Duterte is getting bashed for making a very confusing comment on a CNN Philippines story about the proposed three-child policy of the new administration.
READ: Duterte interested in implementing 3-child policy in PH
The FB user posted the link of the story, “Duterte expresses interest to introduce three-child policy in PH,” on an FB page dubbed as “Freedom Wall” and commented (unedited): “Tangina ka digunggong. Siyam kaming magkakapatid! Ano ha ano?? Papatayin mo ba ang mga kapatid ko kapag ipa tatupad mo ang 3 child police???”
Translation: “You’re a son of a whore, Digunggong (a derogatory term mashed up with the incoming President’s nickname, “Digong”). There are nine of us siblings. What then? Will you kill my siblings if you want to implement the 3 child police?????”
Our take: It could be that the FB user meant to type “policy” instead of “police.” However, somebody should explain to this particular FB user that the implementation of the three-child policy applies to future reproductive decisions and not to children who already exist.
