African viewpoint: Mugabe and the Jamaicans

[Reggaedoc]

We give the man amunition. Can't blame the messenger for the message. The man is right. We should give him another award. He is saying what many of the cowards at home are afraid to say.

[Muadib]

which cowards dem dat ?

yuh mean comrades ?

[Reggaedoc]

All a dem.

[Reggaedoc]

If the idiot politicians can't see that they have a drug(marijuana) and alcohol problem and start doing something about it, then they are all cowards in my estimation.

[Muadib]

safe answer.. part of unnuh problem..

[Muadib]

some more than others..

[Willi]

We were not the intended recipients of the message. You are being obtuse in your contortions to defend the indefensible.

[Sir X]

So the problem is drug and alcohol ? not the lack of education & social oppourtunities , jobs , housing etc ?

Americans & the british consume more drugs than anybody and they have a thriving economy,decent oppourtunities for their population to advance , BTW Ganja & Alcohol is legal is some states CC California & the N.West.

Ganja & Alcohol ! you should stop promoting the propoganada and deal with our real issues, if we lock up all the ganja & rum eads , do you think our problem would be solved, yuh think iddlers would disappear from the streets of jamaica, next thing yuh would advocate is to luck up all di dancehall dancers ,then the slot machines ,the the go go clubs , then the clubs.

Yuh tink it would solve di problem, why not extra curiculla activities i.e sports.

Kissteeth.

It is impossible to visit Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Namibia or any country south of the Sahara, stay off the beaten track of game parks and sunbathing, and not discover some of Africa's young who are imbued with a kind of Jamaican subculture in their music and even their speech patterns.
For patois, after reggae music is a major Jamaican cultural export to Africa.
Caribbean citizens, since the great crime of slavery, have been settling on the continent and are a part of Africa in their professions, while there are many links through marriage and other personal connections.

Why have we all danced around this part?

Patwah mi seh!

[Muadib]

When dem plan to produce an Ebonics version of Di Bible ???

Look like wi way ahead of Babylon !

[Willi]

Tell it like it is!

I know big hi-powered execs in Jamaica who bun weed. No lack of ambition, no loss of drive.

Hell, look what Bob Marley/Jimmy Cliff etc achieved while bunning weed.

I am not even in favour of those smelly cigarettes, but I dont like the misguided hypocrisy either.

If people exhibit problems while smoking weed, it is most likely that they had the problem in the first place and the weed is the convenient crutch!

[Willi]

Yuh see the word "cultural"?

[Gamma]

[Willi]
