After less than 3 woeful years in power clearly Vaz and the JLP have no moral authority or credibility to talk about ridding Jamaica of crime...... unfortunately neither does the PNP.

This is beyond pathetic.

To a point. But when you sit on an important extradition request and do everything you possibly can to not make it happen, then you really have no right to talk about ridding anywhere of crime. Not only that, you yourself should be shot!

Mi tiyad a it bredren!!! When yuh see di look on the face of, a guess it was a councillor in that area, these people are somewhat familiar with gruesome murders, you know something is really wrong. I don't know if he is a JLP or PNP councillor, but he is calling for the Police Commish, the MONS and the PM to visit the area and to do something about it. WTF!

How many times are these "gentlemen" going to visit, and how many more people are going to die right after?!? He forgot to call for Herro Blair as well!

Wayne Cummings of the tourism group says it's time to stop looking at these crimes in relation to their effect on businesses, like tourism. People are dying! And don't tell me who innocent from who nuh innocent. People a dead!!! Too many guns! Where are these guns coming from? Who is bankrolling their importation?

The Gleaner's running banner with the number of deaths does not mean a thing to anyone.

Enough is enough made sense years ago. Not anymore.

I hope not because we don't want to go down that road.

Its one of the few things our Dons have not done ...yet, ie target the media and the justice system like the drug lords in Mexico and Columbia do.

Crime only becomes an "important" issue when someone of privilege is killed.
