Well the deniers of the 70s must explain why were the busyness and homes of Jamaican burnt and looted?
Who was responsible for it?
If you are running around burning and looting how are you going to mind the store?
If you are running around encouraging you Constituents to take over the wealth of the 21 Females how are you going to Govern effectively?

Did the Mahfoods or the English Colonialist actively engage in such practices in the 70s and 90s? Were the ones talking about Better Mus Come and Blackman Time Now the Mahfoods and the English Colonialists?

Yes ma'am dat is what I am saying dem frighten (surprised/amazed) fi si black people working in the bank same way dem prolly frighten fi si a black man as President of the USA </div></div>
But it does support Tropi's stance that it had been unusual to see medium to dark black people working in banks. </div></div>

Still dont understand what all that fuss was about still since the bank tellers never made as much money as the profile suggested. </div></div>

You WOULD see it that way.

stop falla back mi ... why my opinion bother you so much ... by the time i was old enough to realise what bank tellers do and the stories of how many were seen in ochi etc at nights making the extra dollar I was able to form my OWN opinions not based on a theory of light or dark ... GO SIDDUNG IF YOU NO HAVE NUTTIN FI DO

Who is denying the 1970s. You seem stuck there. No one else on here seems to remember the burning and looting though and I never knew anything about it.

I know that based on all my years spent on this forum the tone is very racists, however I what cannot determine is the colur of the proponents of this.
One thing I do know though, even at home as a Rastafarian I have never heard such vile arguments put forth about Whites, especially about White Jamaican.

This take some doing because as I have said, I watch while white businesses were burnt to the ground and they were hounded out of Jamaica, however this was done by largely illiterate Jamaicans, I can not believe that us who have the benefit of travel and distance can still harbour the backward and unproven arguments that we use to castigate our own people for no reason other than the colour or shade they were born with. </div></div>

LOL...my friend Tropicana the reason why I truly like you is because you tend to provide the questions, the answers, the denial and that incredible contortionist maneuvers need to spin the argument all in one concise paragraph.
Bravo
Bravo
Bravo to this one!

You start of by saying no denial
You then claim I was stuck in the 70s, yet none of these topics were started by be and the hundreds of thousands of times that this and similar threads have started that was a leap made from the Slave Ships to whatever year we were currently in and nary a word about the corrupt use of power by racists Jamaicans and the destruction of the Jamaican Economy in the 70s and the 90s.

You then go in to you classic hear no evil about Jamaica, speak no evil about Jamaica and saw no evil in Jamaica…excellent my dear Tropicana…. you win first prize.

I rarely left my area. i was born a PNP and lived in a PNP Area.
Yes it was PNP Gangs in my Area that burned and looted the shops and homes of Chinese, Whites, Indians and Blacks.
The gangs also raped girls from our area!

The Mahfoods were not involved!
