Re: Most Violent Society on Earth?

Rightly ptotecting their own family.

No cop can be expected to protect people from gunmen.

In every other jurisdiction this isnit expected, why should we expect that of Jamaican police? <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: MGee</div><div class="ubbcode-body">where are the cops to protect people from the gunmen? i mean, the actual cops from the area. weh dem did deh? </div></div>

Re: Most Violent Society on Earth?

too<span style="font-style: italic"> &quot;careless&quot;</span> huh .
the ease at which you find it appropriate to use deplorable adjetives to describe persons who hold differnt points of opinions from you, is one of the reason many may avoid having discussions with you.
You may live in an environment where it is acceptable by those around you to be a nasty vagabon, but here you probably want to remind yourself that you trying to influence responsible adults.


As for the &quot;crook&quot; label. Calling a Politicain a crook is as offensive as calling a fat kid, obese.
You Sir, are entitled to your opinions.

<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 17pt">5-year-old boy found with throat slashed</span></span>

A five-year-old boy died yesterday morning after a man allegedly invaded his house in Frankfield, Clarendon, and slit his throat as he slept.

According to the police, Evan Spencer's body was found shortly after 2:30 by his father.

The police said Evan's father, who had gone to a nearby shop, returned to see a man running from his house. While checking inside, he discovered his son's lifeless body sprawled in a pool of blood.

&quot;That's all the information that we received. The May Pen Police are investigating the incident,&quot; an officer from the Constabulary Communication Network (CCN) told the Observer, yesterday.

Evan's death followed Thursday's gun-slaying of Christina Salmon, also five years old, and the wounding of her nine-year-old sister and father in Glendevon, St James, and added to the list of 19 children who are among the more than 530 persons murdered since the start of the year.

Yesterday, the Government and Opposition, in condemning the incidents, made a concerted call for Jamaicans -- regardless of their political affiliation -- to unite in the fight against crime.

&quot;I cannot fathom how someone can be so animalistic, to cut the throat of a five-year-old child. When are we going to stop shedding the blood of our innocent children, the blood of our babies in this country?&quot; lamented National Security Minister Dwight Nelson, who was guest speaker at the launch of the People's National Party's (PNP) 'Making our Communities Safer, 2010 Project' at the Mico University College in Kingston.

Opposition leader Portia Simpson Miller, who also addressed the function, described the child killers as &quot;brutal animals&quot;.

&quot;A good dog is protective of his family; a good brother or sister is protective of their family; if you have a pet bird, that bird is protective of the family in the house. Then how come sons of God, sons of men and women, can find it in their hearts to become so brutal, so wicked?&quot; she said.

&quot;Minister, we have to find a way, because there has to be another way; a better way. We have to explore all possibilities.... 'cause the level of murder and mayhem we cannot condone,&quot; she said, reiterating her willingness to work with the Government in finding solutions to the crime problem.

The 'Making our Communities Safer' project is an initiative of the PNP's Region Three and other associated groups. It is aimed at bolstering good values and attitudes among Jamaicans, especially those in impoverished violence-prone communities.

Yesterday, Nelson commended the project, saying, &quot;I join in the hope that this approach will envelop not only the regions of the PNP, but also the groupings in all other political enclaves that exist.&quot;

&quot;Because it is not PNP people, not Jamaica Labour Party people, nor members of the National Democratic Movement that are being killed; it is Jamaicans. And, as Jamaicans, the time for talking has ended; it is now time for action,&quot; he said, urging the public to assist the police with investigations.

Job description is is little more thanwhat the employers feel is impressive on a organizational chart.
Can You name one community in which police is able to stop people intent on shooting others, unless the police lock up all those so intended?
How about the perennial gang violence in many major cities?
Isn't the job description of the police to stop those gun killings too?
And nit to mention domestic violence involving guns.

<span style="font-size: 17pt"><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">No lie, no lie, no lie – tru story.</span></span></span>
<span style="font-weight: bold">
Today today today!</span>

I came to work today and saw one of my coworkers, unexpectedly, sitting at her desk - “Mary”.

She left for vacation last week Friday with her boyfriend – they went to Negril for 7 days. Her 3rd time – his 1st.
<span style="font-style: italic">
“Mary – omg – what are YOU doing here I thought you were on vacation?!”</span>

Baxcide!

She proceeds to tell me ...

On the way from the airport to Negril, there was a slight traffic jam because of a police man who’d pulled a driver over and was arguing with him.

She goes on about how they were in a heated argument and she wondered if the driver may have been unbalanced or maybe unstable somehow.

Driver pulled out a pipe and struck the policeman.

Policeman pulled his gun and shot dead the driver.

They saw the whole thing.

They were shell shocked.

Boyfriend has them proceed to the hotel.

He’s beside himself.

They rebook flights for the next day, spend the nite at the hotel and fly back out to NY.

They get back to NY Saturday morning.

She says they couldn’t care less about the monies they lost.

She already renegotiated the time with our boss and she’s just going to take off her remaining time this coming Memorial Day.

Re: Most Violent Society on Earth?

awful to witness...however, she must comprehend that the Jamaican policeman is not like the policeman in the states.. his life is under threat AT ALL TIMES...he is constantly on edge and thus adopts a principle of shooting first and asking questions later.


I remember one year I got a flat in Downtown Kiingston and pulled over to the side of the road... About 3 different squaddies stopped to assist me....the one who was actually changing the tire asked lil ole ME to watch his back

[Yuriatin]

Re: Most Violent Society on Earth?

I don't know what she comprehends or doesn't.

I didn't want to get into it too deep with her.

Boyfriend 200% didn't want to stay - that's his right.

Police or no police - it's not easy to witness a man's death.
