WHY do these people have to give the rest of us a bad name?

[Tropicana]

do we know he's Jamaican - or have we drunk that special happiness in the form of jim jones koolaid that tells us he is?

Yup he had one STRONG Jamaican accent and it was pure cloth im was ripping in the passenger lounge.

Oh you mean the guy who stabbed the guy....he was Black. I was not referring specifically to Jamaican when I said give US a bad name.

who are 'WE" ? I have THREE BLACK MEN who are so gentle, kind and respectful with the people at the retirement centre and me - if I had a heart it would melt. everyone is someone's child - a baby newly born. can't take that away. not for the stabbed nor the stabee.

xrist - i'm getting feelings

Not going to take you on Sue. If you want to skirt the issue, be my guest but the next time you don't get an opportunity because someone has negative stereotypes of Black people based on some of this bad behaviour, don't post it or I will just say "Told you...serve you right."

.. and we must perpetuate those stereotypes amongst ourselves. I personally never go to a lick party, bbq or parade without my knife and my gun.

Your reply is what is funny.
I bet if the person who was stabbed was a mini-skirted, blonde female it would not have mattered? In fact I further wager that you would consider it just punishment by your god?

All I was trying to say is why not apply your time-honoured formula to this incident. Why not go to their facebook page and fill it with random postings about discovering Coco Tea? If that don't work why not get them banned from Carnival or New York even? Then if all else fail you can apply the ultimate, guillotine.... The infamous Ignore Liss?

I have not gone in decades. I had no idea anything was banned. Sagga Bwoy and Nanabush should have been banned....giant puppets the size of about a 6 story building that did vulgar dancing.

I think dem back in now, but di JA float was asked not tuh participate. People made ah lota stink about it.

[Tropicana]

Really? What did they do to get themselves banned?

[j-kid]

If mi memba correctly dem sey: Group too large, ruckus, unruly, wid frequent problems wid di Police.

when you say banned the Jamaica float do you mean they banned reggae music?
