Did Buju Banto meet with gays? $$$$$$$

[Don1]

even more myopic would be your interpretation of OJ Statement...

Yes Minister... I agree

[Rudi]

I don't understand what the problem is. He agreed to listen to them, they made certain demands/requests: contribute to JFLAG, do a song or make a statement supporting Gays in Jamaica etc. which he catagorically refused. Beenie Man got hugged and kissed by Rupaul for godsake. I think you guys are being premature this will help him in the long-run. what he has done is met with the beast and basically said we must agree to disagree. which essentially is the general Jamaican perspective. The bowing characterization represents more hope than reality. This Bruce Golding Bow by answering the question dear Ben?

[Rudi]

should have read did Bruce Golding bow by answering the question of any gays in the cabinet?

[Islandman]

Agree to disagree with the gays is NOT the general Jamaican perspective by any stretch. The general Jamaican perspective(to put it mildly) is that they should NOT be tolerated.

Meeting with them may help salvage his tour, but just deciding to meet with them is a MAJOR concession in my opinion. It must have been hurting him BADLY or he would not even consider it.

[Muadib]

Bruce nuh look like di bowing type.. is nuh him form NDM ?

[Rudi]

On the face of it I would agree with a caveat. Whether we want to admit or not homosexual relationships are technically illegal in Jamaica. Yet what Jamaicans object to are Public displays and promotion of homosexuality. there has always been homosexuality in Jamaica the question is what happened in the last 20-30 years to result in this public animosity. To some the mere act of meeting with them constitutes a compromise. To others meeting and reaffirming ones beliefs in the face of immense pressure will constitute a greeat strength. Let's wait to see how it plays out. If I was Ben I wouldn't breakout the champaigne just yet.

[Muadib]

Resistance is futile...

Especially for a minnow like Jamaica...

I'm sure you have coveyed these sentiments to Bruce "the Drivah" Golding the Obama of Jamaica. Accordingly, we should be seeing a change in policy quite soon.

[Mosiah]

Now, yuh wrong fi put Obama name and di drivah own inna di same sentence. Plain wrong!

[Rudi]

just a try give Ben 'the advisah' Maudib some enouragement to address the contradiction between his views on this subject and that of the drivah's.

The Rear Admiral has accepted the fact that he will not be in the Cabinet...since he's out of the Closet.

We shall see. He is pretty articulate actually. Jamaicans interact with gays everyday and don't know it. Like I said Beenie got hugged by RuPaul, Bounty tried to exploit it but in the end it didnt stick.
