Handguns were basically limited to four inch .38 revolvers and .45 1911s. didn't hardly see any 9mms, long guns ran the assortment of M1 Garands, M1/2 carbines, long and short M16s, M14s and assorted shotguns.

Aside from that and his China foreign policy (two things that I have a huge concern with), I have nothing but praises for him.

The Philippines is owned by men who have guns - politicians, rich people, police, military and criminals. It’s very expensive and there’s too much bureaucracy for regular folks to legally own firearms and carry outside the home. Local towns are ruled by families and officials who have the most guns. If you are a foreigner or a regular folk in the Philippines, you can only bow your head and say “sorry” when somebody armed raise their voice against you. They tend to brandish and pull out their firearms in anger or to prove a point. If you are foreigner living in the Philippines, don’t live somewhere remote like in the beach, quiet farm or island somewhere. It will only be a matter of time that you will get a home invasion, robbery. Foreigners can’t own firearms in the Philippines.

In school, they would enter into fraternities - which are more of a gang than form of fraternities like in western and European countries. In college and high school, the fraternities are actually just school or street gangs with Greek letter names. During adulthood, they tend to go in to more formal groups. In the 70s-90s, Kiwanis, Lions Club and Knights of Columbus in urban areas, then you have the religious cult militias in the south. Now, it’s the “lodges”. Unlike other Asian men like the Japanese or Koreans, adult and middle-age Filipino feel the need to belong to a group (or exclusive group) to have a sense of entitlement and authority. They have been low or middle class their whole lives, and being in an exclusive group bumping fists with alpha males of higher society, they feel they stepped up. This need for entitlement explains adult Filipino men wearing military or police t-shirt, even though they are not affiliated. They have police or government seal stickers on their cars or plate numbers to project false authority. Open their wallets and they have a collection of business cards from officials they have met - albeit in their fraternities. The more exclusive the club is, the more entitled they feel. And if there’s guns involved and they have phoney military-style ranking in the club, they feel like real men, again and truly hit the jackpot.

Im a filipino, I came from a very poor family in sulu but it didnt burden me to go to school and finish college and now I have a decent job in manila. being very poor is not the reason but being very lazy. Filipinos specially the very poor ones are mostly very lazy, always turning to crimes to get easy money hoping to be rich instantly. And when they are killed by their actions they will blame the government. As the saying goes, "IF YOU PLAY WITH FIRE YOU GET BURNED".

The 40 cal WASNT designed to stop targets in their tracks.. It is simply a shortened 10mm. The FBI was switching from .38/357 revolvers to Semi autos (for obvious reasons) and was wanting something that was relatively high capacity but also hard hitting and looked into the 10mm. However testers reported that the recoil was too stout for smaller shooters. So they shortened it and adopted the .40 S&W (smith and wesson, or SHORT AND WEAK lol). Served for a while until they chose the 9mm due to modern ammunition advances and loadings preforming on par if not better than the .40 and also gave an increase in capacity over .40. The .45 acp was designed to stop people in their tracks.

@@vwlover4677 No, just some missing general knowledge about firearms, calibers, what those calibers mean and what their intended use-cases are/were upon their invention. They make some inaccurate statements, which normally I'd say is par for the course, IF the whole documentary wasn't centered around firearms. They could have asked one actual expert to come in and consult for 10 minutes to fix that. A .40 is hardly more effective than the much-more-compact 9mm. A 40 may hold 10 rounds where a 9mm with identical practical stopping-power will hold 17 or 19 rounds. As someone pointed out, a .40SW(smith and Wesson) is essentially just a shortened 10mm. Now, 10mm rounds justify their size (radius) by being an absolutely devastating round that you'd want when facing down a bear in Alaska. But a .40 has the radius disadvantages of a 10mm, and therefore the reduced capacity, but none of the bite on the business end. (It's a shortened 10mm. Most 10mm pistols will shoot .40 as well, in fact) .40 basically has all of the drawbacks of a 10mm or a .45 (ammo capacity) and yet is actually only about as practically effective as the much smaller, cheaper and more readily available 9mm. Maybe 40 is far more common in the Philippines, and therefore the smart option, who knows. But I am pretty sure even over there, 9mm is more prolific. Edit: that being said, they did get some stuff right. But that's only discernable by me because I know about it beforehand. To the normal person watching this, they're getting a lot of incorrect tidbits of info scattered about among the correct stuff.

So much for guns being illegal in the Philippines. When guns are outlawed, only the outlaws will have guns.

It's nice to have documentation like this. But when it comes in making guns. We are less compared to other countries

Not gonna lie, this was very visceral and chilling, because it's true. I grew up in different army camps in Mindanao in the 80's (Cotabato and Iligan City), violence and small pockets of gunfights are a reality there. It's morbid how everyone back then would just joke about the deaths.

Weird to see this considering it's pretty rare to see guns in here. Mostly it's always those with military/police careers, the rich folk, govt officials and those working for them or those with links to syndicates who tend to keep firearms at home. People who are none of that commonly do not possess guns at all.

That's scary. But it's really sad that some people have to do these things in order to survive. I do hope that there will be a time in our country where we all live a respectable life, that our country men will never have to do these kind of things.

Damn skippy it does. While the total number of gun deaths in America is 80,000 plus which actually includes all suicides as well which make up about 70% of that number, something they won't tell you because it goes against the narrative for gun control, the doj and FBI estimate that at least two to three million times per year a good guy with a gun stops a violent crime in america. 80,000 gun deaths of which almost three quarters are suicide compared to two to three million crimes stopped. It's not even an argument for anyone that's not helplessly stupid or ideologically poisoned and doesn't give a damn about anyone's lives.

The problem with this video is the title. They insinuate that the problem is simply the volume of guns. But upon initial review, it looks like wide spread gang violence.

It starts with the PEOPLE who are OBSESSED with the guns and base them off they personality. That’s what I realized here in the US.

Atom, I’m not sure if you are Americanized but you sound so democrat. Not all guns are used to murder someone but to also protect yourself from someone that wants to murder you. At the end of the day guns are tools like a hummer or an axe. It depends if the owner is bad or good. #2ndamendment

And as a Filipino I'm telling you, you're just seeing the tip of the iceberg on how many of these journalists, intellectuals and activists like him, talk and act like they're from blue state cities. Strangely I see some of the same dynamic from red state conservatives among Filipinos living in remote rural areas far away from Manila.

Or going on hiking in a mountainous area thinking there might be terrorist that will open fire on us. Terrorist have a lot of legal front organization in the Philippines. They even hide guns in churches (Christians). These terrorist killed hundreds of civilian, the youngest is 7 years old. Just like the gunman said, you will not be killed if you didn't do anything bad.
