Re: No room for gays in cabinet
I am a part of the backward electorate living in medevial times.
Where I thought that the JLP would have won last years elections by a comfortable majority, they won only by the skin of their teeth and might after the investigations into dual citizenships, might end up having to call for yet another election and might end up losing for all that matters. Why?
We love shooting ourselves not in the foot, but in the head.
We murder, we rape, we maim and we find time to worry about sexuality as if we dont have one for ourselves to deal with.
So, another Portia and another Solid as a Rock at the helm is nutten to be opposed about. After all Sista P says she loves us and that`s enough and all we need to hear for her to give the intellectual and honest Bruce Golding another skin of the teeth run for the money.
As for us men, women too are into the things that you accuse us men of doing. One of the only other things I have not done other than cower on my verandah is to stand on a Box at south Parade and condemn the fatalistic behaviour rampant in our society.
Where the right to pursue ones freedoms and rights, sexuality included, I do believe that sexuality should be sacred and not something that one goes bleating down others peoples faces.
If one is gay then so be it, but dont force its practice down others throats and dont force it as if it is gospel to be accepted as normal.
Bruce has a point where he says that in cabinet a place where examples should be seen for strong family structures to be maintained cannot be so done with homosexuality at the helm.
Whoever is homosexual in Jamaica knows that this is not the place to go bleating about its glory, worse to knowingly have a gay man in parliament. All those that are and I am sure that there are be what they are with great discretion, never intent to let their secret be known.
What a thing! Funny thing is that there are gays in Jamaica who are identified as such by those employed by them but will never be strung by rope because they apparently are good and pay good without intentionally exposing their private lives in public.
We are prepared however to storm a home in Mandeville where four men eating their meal at a table are attacked and mauled because they are thought to be gay. If any one of those men were identified to be of worth for economic reasons they would have been left alone with only the whispers fluttering around.
