Dr. Sam Christian defiant

Dr. Christian raises a fist to supporters after his court appearance on Thursday afternoon

Dominican surgeon Dr. Sam Christian, who was arrested and charged on allegations of “inciting to commit arson” has been defiant and has warned that his arrest is the beginning of things to come.

He spoke to supporters who had gathered outside the courthouse on Thursday after the charge was read to him and he was released on $20,000 bail.

“They will have to kill all of us,” he said to loud cheers. “It’s not about me, it’s about the Dominican people. You cannot scare us, you cannot stifle the righteous outrage of the Dominican people. If you think that you are going to shut me up, then I have just begun to talk.”

He continued, “This is going to spread ladies and gentlemen, people must understand what is happening in this country.”

Referring to himself, Dr. Christian said, “This is not the man who has dragged the reputation of our beloved country into the gutter. He, the man who has dragged Dominica in the gutter (Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit), we will get rid of him and I assure you that we will. We will not shut up, we will not rest. “

Meantime, opposition leader Lennox Linton has given a date for protest action.

“We have to get rid of this government, we will gather in Roseau on Tuesday, February 7, 2017 in massive numbers in a peaceful demonstration, we will show them our forces, we will show them what we have and we will remove this corrupt government,” he stated.

Dr. Christian was detained on Thursday morning and charged in the afternoon for remarks he allegedly made at a public meeting held at Peebles Park in 2015.

The complaint presented in court said he stated the following, “You must stand strong and stand with dignity for the Dominican people. We must stand with dignity. Don’t take any kind of crap from the speaker of the house. We know that this parliament was burnt down before and if the parliament continues to operate this way ladies and gentlemen it will be burnt down again by the people of Dominica. We have to stand strong. When duty calls for danger be never lacking near. Ladies and gentlemen today is the day we have to stand up, we have to stand up for our freedom. Ladies and gentlemen we have to stop the rot right now. Stand up, stand up Dominica.”

    Dr. Sam Christian, cool it!
    You were wrong to make that statement. They are dangerous words. It is grounds for prosecution.
    The problem with some people they can say whatever comes to their mind and expressed through their mouth and tongue. They think they are correct. Such people do not know to apologize. They are defiant at that.
    Keep in mind those words of the hymn: “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.”
    Peace perfect peace! Keep the peace!

    majority of dominicans are Idiots.yes I say it because the majority voted for skerrit and still bent on keeping him there doesn’t matter how much hard time they going through they wont try something new. if you keep doing the same thing over and over don’t look for a different result.the writing is on the wall but they cant read it or rather they wont read it they carry a blind eye and a deaf ear.phew. phew these voters are so pathetic. wait for election again to see them blazing red they have not gotten the understanding of what blazing red means (IT MEANS THE DEVIL IS IN CHARGE). after Election they calling family members who is abroad to send them money because things rough in D/ca. stop putting people in power who is not working on you all behalf the voting power is in you all hands. 15 plus years of set back in you all lives.stop being IDIOTS try something new or if you all like Labour don’t vote for skerrit If he loose his seat he cannot be prime minister.

    Why don’t you use your ability to be useful by providing services to the needy of Dominica, who would most benefit from health services. You spent all your working years serving the populace of the US and choose now to spend the better part of your retirement possibly leading OUR country to instability. If Dominica is viewed as unstable and the cruise ships and tourists and other business stops coming, then what?

    Sam Christian is a coward. He should’ve spend the weekend in jail, then post bail on Tuesday, just when the UWP protest is starting. Spice things up. Nobody gonna follow these clowns, they don’t wanna do the time, they want others to do it for them.

    What they expect to happen Tuesday, the ports will be open, civil servants at work, businesses open, who cares about their drama. Wednesday morning Skerrit will still be PM and what’s their plan for that?

    Do you people know what statute of limitation means? If something wrong happened two years ago that does not mean it has to be taken care of forthright. There is what is called investigative work and evidence. Did the doctor utter such rhetoric? Is there audio recording of such utterances? If there is then he is in deep trouble and he knows that. Unlike Linton who is talking a lot of b.s with no evidence the police has evidence which is plain to see.

        Even though they went to College, all countries have their share of police problems. If people are law-abiding, they have nothing to worry about except from criminals.
        Live well, sleep well, eat well. do well, love one another and keep the peace. No use/sense to start an uprising.
        The PM was elected. There are some of you who do not allow him to exercise his elected duty.
        Canada has a PM. I did not vote for the Party. I hear/read what he is doing, some of which displeases me and, some who voted for him.
        We respect him as a PM. We are patient. We give him his opportunity as a PM. Next election will tell if he will be re-elected. This is what you must do in Dominica.
        For a long time now you harass the PM. You make all sorts of derogatory statements about him. You do not give him a chance to function. You lack appreciation for what he does; always criticizing him. You want to force him out of office. This is not right! You opposition are the problem!

        God is in control. The good thing about life, it is temporary and no one knows how long one will live; how soon one will die. Therefore, I find some of you are too pompous and presumptuous. You act as if you own D/ca and nothing will ever happen to you. Keep in mind what you wish another. Something worst could befall you, those in your household and your endeavors.
        Always wish the best for others. Do not hate. Hatred is an act of the devil. It is not of God’s doing. He who taught us to love one another, it is displeasing to him. Furthermore, those who hate please the enemy of God and of our souls. The haters are simply heaping everlasting, hot burning coals on their heads.
        The PM has done you nothing wrong. Do you not pray The Our Father? You know the words. As a US Priest said, “If you can’t forgive, you better not pray the Our Father.”
        Remember the words of Our Lord about forgiving. Surely you should know it as contained in Holy Scripture.

See it that way, this arrest has no legs. Its always good to have an opposition to keep government on their toes, but this government will not resign.

        Is there anyone in Dominica who is starving and who do not have a roof over their heads which is not through their fault?
        The adults should be helping to enhance Dominica. They can do a lot but they prefer joining Lennox, the hater to try and oust the PM. It is the height of wickedness! They must think of themselves. How would they like someone to do this to them? They do not live by the Golden Rule.

    A question? Would we see the good Doctor so vocal if he was granted the position of Health Tourism Consultant via a cabinet appointment in 2008 where he asked for $7500 US a month, vehicle gas allowance and official travel allowances?

    While I do not support many of the issues we are facing right now, we need to be very skeptical of these fellas motives. The same goes for all that dried up their resources in America and house went into foreclosure. Are they making noise now because they are not part of the regime that they tried to join.

    I believe that Roosevelt Skerrit was poorly advised in taking this action. It does galvanise the people and turns the victim into a martyr figure the man & woman in the street can rally to.
    Dr. Sam has been metamorphosed into a catalyst for those opposing the government of mr. Skerrit to unite into one mass intent to remove him from office. As a purported strategical psychologist he should understand that in order to maintain power you do not allow your adversaries to combine forces, least of all by providing a common cause for them. He obviously is not a good student of history.

        All that those fellows can do is talk and think they are big, but they are simply bluffing; God Almighty, the Supreme Leader has said “NO FLESH SHALL GLORY IN HIS PRESENCE” These little fellows of flesh and bone are nothing but butterflies to Him; they will be silenced at His time–as it is spoken so it shall be done!

        Prime Minister Roosevelt Sherrit is God anointed to rule over Dominica and Her people–no one can remove him, before God says so–these malicious little fellows have no power against him.

    Replace it with what it whom? Are you talking about you? You are just as corrupt or even more. That’s not the way to remove a government. You do so by going to the polls and electing one. However the majority is already in favor of the present administration so how are you gonna remove the government? Lennox you have to understand that the people have spoken at the polls.. You are not fighting skerrit you are actually fighting the people of Dominica. They are the ones who elected him. He didn’t just get there by himself.

      Da4real,
      Have you stopped to seriously ask yourself:

      What reason are people being flow into Dominica for elections if the majority already support the DLP?
      Why do those people get flights paid and spending money?
      Who pays then and where does the money come from?
      How come these CBI clients get voting rights on a island they know nothing of apart from those who sold them a passport?

      Answer these 4 questions honestly then a light might shine in the dim areas.

        Then why is the church involved in politics? Just as mindblowing..
        Gimme a break – The police force is the first institution a dictator seeks to harness to control the people or any opposition. It can be the most instrumental part of the repressive state apparatus much like the Duvaliers had their Tonton Macoute. However, I wouldnt go as far as putting such a label on our police force just yet but it is clear their weak and inept chief is a Skerritt scapegoat. Not so sure if this carries through the rank and file. We will probably find out sooner rather than later.

      This man isnt a public figure. he isnt a politician nor does he go out campaigning like the PM during elections time. He is private doctor standing up for his country. Every revolution started with a spark. then it gains momentum. This doctor doesnt have access to millions to buy votes and pay for diaspora to take a vacation to come home under the pretense of elections. Off course when skerrit drum strike you sheep hop to it. Just like how when i whistle to my fowls with a bowl of coconut meal (scraps) they run to me. why because it is me that giving them scraps to last them until the next handout comes. Skerrit have all you like bird brained fowls.

      Stop your noise – without the red clinic you wouldnt have any rhetoric. What I see around Skerro is a few rich cronies, plenty foreign ones and a band of happy beggars happy to hit the rumshop once massa bless them.
      Wake up, colonialism should have ended when the white man left. If Dominicans are supposed to be a proud, progressive people then Skerro must have brainwashed plenty of you all into accepting a much lower standard for yourselves. Look at the islands around us if you dont think so

    The Prime Minister should caution the Commissioner of Police about allowing the police to carry loaded guns at demonstrations. In 1979 what really brought down the Patrick’s Administration was because of the death of a Dominicans during a demonstration at government headquarters. During one of those demonstrations planned by the opposition during these coming weeks, if anyone gets killed, his end as Prime Minister will be sooner that later.

      Doc Love with all due respect, the men and women took an oath to protect the country. They have to be prepared for anything especially with what we are seeing in the country now with guns and gun violence. Someone might take an opportunity of a peaceful protest to insight violence, thus law enforcement has to be ready to enforce the laws.

But in the Name of Yashua this is already brought to nought. No coup… no war.

    Was there a war on in Dominica yesterday? I live in Britain and unfortunately almost always have to pass through crowds of protesters outside Houses of Parliament and never have I seen armed police standing there. Is that what my country has become that people cannot even gather in a public place without armed police present? Surely this must be illegal because we live in a democracy so called and not a police state.

      Are we saying if a crime was committed two years ago and was not prosecuted for whatever reason, say lack of evidence, no witnesses what ever or the plaintiff was just nice and gave the criminal a break ; but what if more serious evidence comes up regarding that same case what should you do?

      Say if two years ago someone broke and enter your grocery shop and you did nothing about it. Then today the person told some people I am going and break and enter in this person shop again today. What would you do? Allow it to happen?

        That is why you people who support skerrit are considered to be FOOLISH.

Do you know what happened to labourites back then? If you don’t then ask Peter karam and the cools latigues and they’ll tell you. Should saverin have been charged for inciting violence?

Statements made whilst speaking about the economic citizenship program and that passeport. But he is fooling and saying that it is about comments made in 2 years ago. Listen to it o he news and listen to the tone. Sam must behave himself.
