    I think Rogers just being abit crazy here an he is really talking about Agimat

    from wiki -

    Agimat or bertud or anting-anting, is a Filipino word for amulet or charm.[1] Although stereotyped as a cross, a flat, round or triangular golden pendant accompanying a necklace or a necklace-like item, it is also depicted as an enchanted stone that came from the sky or from the heart of a banana tree. In relation to the latter, it is usually ingested. It is usually accompanied by a small book of magic incantations which must be read during Good Friday or a certain special date to attain the amulet's full power and benefit. An agimat could also be in the form of a clothing with magic words printed on it, or even in the form of edible enchanted mud (in Tagalog, mud is putik).[2] Other methods of obtaining an agimat is by getting the liquid that is drained from a exhumed body of an unbaptized child or aborted fetus or offering food and drinks to the spirits in a cemetery during midnight of Holy Wednesday or Holy Thursday.[3] Most of the amulets bear Latin inscriptions into it, and most of the places these Agimat are sold near churches or on its courtyard or in the market near the church, like in Quiapo district in Manila. Filipino fighters also wore anting-anting to battle against the Spaniards and the Americans.

    In Filipino films, the wearer of the agimat gains superhuman strength, invisibility, heightened senses, self-healing and elemental powers. With it, the person can also be able to shoot or fire lightning via hands, or generate electricity throughout one's body. The person can also perform telekinesis , stop a live bullet, can have premonitions, morphing abilities, camouflage abilities like a chameleon, can have extreme good luck, invincibility or miracle curative powers. In his Filipino films, the actor Ramon Revilla as Nardong Putik, was depicted to have protection from bullets and slash wounds, provided he eats a certain special mud.

    He's been up all night watching Movies

    The word "amok" is actually a malayan term. During the Philippine-American war, especially in the South, the Muslims would apparently run amok rushing American soldiers with their "Kris", a sword.

    But since the Americans at that time were using 0.38 caliber pistols, the muslims could still kill one or two before being felled because the 38 does not have stopping power.

    That is why they introduced the Colt 0.45 M1911 and it is all actually in the history books. Even Wiki has it.

    Here is the excerpt:

    " In response to problems encountered by American units fighting Moro guerrillas during the Philippine-American War, the then-standard Colt M1892 revolver, in .38 Long Colt, was found to be unsuitable for the rigors of jungle warfare, particularly in terms of stopping power, as the Moros had very high battle morale and frequently used drugs to inhibit the sensation of pain.[3] The U.S. Army briefly reverted to using the M1873 single-action revolver in .45 Colt caliber, which had been standard during the last decades of the 19th century; the heavier bullet was found to be more effective against charging tribesmen.[4] The problems with the .38 Long Colt led to the Army shipping new single action .45 Colt revolvers to the Philippines in 1902. It also prompted the then-Chief of Ordnance, General William Crozier, to authorize further testing for a new service pistol.[4]"

    The Moros were actually the first suicide fighters and drugs are never involved. Just plain adrenaline.

    It was probably during his research for drugs, because the Americans actually credit the ability of the Moros to continue despite eating hails of bullet to drugs.

    Just for Clarification Moros is Spanish for Moors. The Moros in Philippines are Muslims.

    The Japanese make meth and call it Philopon and stockpiled during the War in the Pacific

    The spanish and the Americans used it to denote the Muslims of the southern Philippines as well. The term though is derogatory, similar to "negger" in context. (ssorry can't spell the word because the site turns it all to asterisk)

    :rofl This is some funny **** but you know what's even more stupid than Roger's history lesson? The fact that it won't take long before threads start popping up on here about how it's really possible that Pac is using drugs that make him bulletproof.

    This fight aint happening now, Floyd's gonna ask for Pac to be shot at to determine if he is in fact using these drugs.

    I can imagine Roger sat at a computer on Google typing in 'Fillypino drugs' and clicking the 'Did you mean Filipino Drugs' button and feverishly looking at the history of drugs in the Phillipines while plotting what he's going to say next
