An unknown assailant shot and killed a Filipino mayor during a flag-raising ceremony at Tanauan City Hall Monday morning.

Tanauan Mayor Antonio Halili, a controversial political figure known for humiliating drug suspects while facing allegations of involvement in the drug trade, was felled by a single shot to the chest from a suspected sniper, Police Superintendent Renato Mercado told CNN. The incident occurred as the mayor and other government employees sang the national anthem.

Government security forces attempted to return fire, shooting in the direction they suspected the shot originated. Police scoured the nearby hills in search of a shooter, but the gunman presently remains at large, Philippine state media revealed.

That's some bodacious breathing control/timing/trigger work, right there.

A patriotic killer.  Nice.

[Fishrrman]

Long distance sniper, perhaps?
Hired by the drug gangs?

This will ramp up Duterte's war on the drug lords.
When they hit you, hit them back harder...

Reminds me of the headline: 47 dead on the second floor after police shoot over the heads of rioters.

Or some Islamic group. Duterte has little tolerance for the Death Cult from the M.E. invading his territory. He has thousands of them locked up in camps to keep them under control and to keep them from killing everyone around them.

I don't believe for a second that Duterte wouldn't get rid of every Muslim in P.I. if he gets a chance. For now he is playing politics. But it will end in his favor in one way or another.

I don't think there will be peace, because I don't think the Moros can trust Duterte any more than he can trust them.

Exactly. Glad to hear you say that. It is my opinion that Duterte is setting them up. I think I know what Duterte's plan is. And it is about 'peace'. It is about his version of what 'peace' is.

He understands your tag line. He may make the decision the West is failing to elsewhere, especially in most of Europe.

I'm all for severely limiting their access, but we have significant influences here already.

That can be remedied. Even if it takes singing the national anthem...
