Since when all those guns arrived in Dominica noh!?
I think the customs and Police have to do more work in on the seaports and airports.
Little Dominica has too many guns. They may be unlicensed ones.
Too many guns are in the hands of irresponsible people. Who gave them to you? Where did you get them from?
Some of you may not be able to read and write properly but you have guns. You do not even know how to communicate and properly with your fellow people. Instead you feel the result is to use a gun to injure and/or kill them. This never wins an argument. Shame on you! What you sow you will reap in time and two-fold.
You cannot go to Heaven with a gun nor having shot your fellow men. Therefore, put the gun down and never use it again.
Repent, worship, pray, make penance and sacrifice with a humble and contrite heart. This is the only way to appease God and to be forgiven. Otherwise. . .
Shooting not even making breaking news again
The devil is busy in everyway,if is not by people killing each other is by dropping like flies. Either by the big C, or an accident my people pray for our brothers and sisters and the world at large.
Why everything pm have to be blame
He that have the country so, so he have to get blame for everything…
skerrit have to feed allu everything? get up walk the streets, send out applications, ask about vacancies. skerrit do have allu fellas frustrated allu doing that on allu own cause allu dont want to work and just want to live street life
waw your English rough but that is well stated!! good talk!
@jane doe. How about telling skerrit to provide jobs to every qualified individual and not only to his supporters because it is tax payers money that paying the salaries and not his money or his party money.
If mister does’t stop that, the wrath of God will really come down on this country.
Evil set of people

salisbury turn wild wild west…oh yeah is west coast
It is not up to you to decide who should live and who should die. All you need to kill a human being with a gun is by pulling a trigger. thou shall not kill. Young ; capable and strong people make the fool out of themselves.
skerrrit give the young men work and stop frustrate us boy
if you expect people to give you anything and you not taking responsibility for your life and your own actions you destined for a very hard life!
A boy becomes a man the day he decides to take full responsibility for his life, situation and actions. Only boys that blaming other man for their situation.
Fool! Only these blame the government and continue to do so. They had an opportunity to attend school and graduate and search for a job. First ask them what happened to them that they have to resort to crimes. No excuse for them. Place the blame on them.
Do you think when they, having lived a life of crime and stand before God for their eternal judgment, he will exonerate them?
People are responsible for themselves. God gave them a life. It is up to them what they do with it. This will be a determining factor what type of life they live. They will bear the consequences of their action, one way or the other. It will have absolutely nothing to do with the government.
