@ Sukuna... Where do you draw your absurd conclusions from. Where in the post did it say that I was trying to be 'well-behaved'.I do not go out of my way to be 'well-behaved'.That is how I was brought up .

My emphasis on well behaved was to indicate that most Jamaicans are well behaved and decent individuals which is contrary to what most people around the world think of Jamaicans.

That is why people like Mad white Jamaican and other Jamaican youtube posters feel the need to come on youtube and voice their frustration at being negatively stereotyped because they do not look like how and act like how people from Jamaica are suppose to 'look and act like'

No I did not post the same thing .and I am free to post whatever I like especially because I and many Jamaicans are concerned about the negative images of my beautiful Jamaica abroad.Don't bully me into.I think I might have to report you

Obviously you haven't seen the video on youtube by Mad White Jamaican called 'If I'm really Jamaican' and other Jamaicans videos living abroad who air their frustrations about being negatively stereotyped. I am merely doing the same thing.

No I mi nuh have school work fi do haven't you noticed it is the Christmas holidays.

Re: Sick of ignorant ,negative stereotypes about Jamaicans

Speech is free and that is why people can assume the opposite.

Just imagine me come from mars. Where is the proof? How do I know that is true? You just cant generalize.

Prove it!

@ Sakuna ...I don't understand your ridiculous rant... Try to form articulate and coherent sentences when you post.
