All my people in dominica please we need to pray for the younger ones

And we as adults need to builb up not break down
And remember god is good all the time and all the time god is good
Yes i da have more crime than america now. When i was growing up gun was d last thing u would think of being in da. I think i safer in the us.
They know it! You and I know it!Who are the real trouble makers. Once you see them;they are always BLUE vex.
Lawless and corrupt government= crime.Who dont like it too bad.Dominica has lost her innocence.
You are one of the first to make her(Dominica)do so. So hush your **se!
Calm down Dominica Uk is just being sarcastic, what he is saying is they blame the pm for every thing but they need to see these are really thugs that don’t want to work
Call your Parlrep.
Actually I was at the Princess Margaret Hospital on Wednesday when two brothers were brought in with bullet wounds. Both were shot by the same shooter according to the girlfriend of one of the brothers.
I am trying to understand why someone would give this a thumbs down. Is it the shooter or a sympathizer of the shooter who feels what?
Hello and good morning my people. Well it seems like the criminals ending the year with a bang. I would like to know where Yampiece is located because I check my map and it’s not on the map.
Tony, Google it.
Hopefully DNO will inform you.
Higher up Stockfarm. Below the State College
Hello and good morning my people. Thanks for informing me of its location. Last year when I visited I went to see the New College which is a beautiful campus with a nice view therefore Yampiece residence should also have a nice view of the Town and ocean. I just hope the victims survive and the perpetrator is apprehended and successfully prosecuted.
I want to wish my people a Happy and safe New Year from a very cold New York City.
Bring the crime to Portsmouth, Grandbay, Paix Bouche and cottage
those people too Wicked!
This place is on its way to becoming another Jamaica.
Danny still vex with them fellas man?
We need an urban renewal program for Yampiece. The first start should be name change for the area. With a name like Yampiece, it’s a self fulfilling prophecy as to how some of the young men in particular will behave.
This area also needs more policing and more community engagement. The policing model in Dominica is outdated. An area like Yampiece needs police officers on the “Beat” throughout all three shifts. A mobile command center should be established in the area in conjunction with regular beat patrol.
police cannot prevent the sale of drugs in the liitle shanty opposite to the immigration office, virgin lane, boyds avenue and bath road you really expect them to go Yampiece. It have at least 4 male police officers leaving Yampiece and it makes no difference get real its needed but the police needs to clean closer to home first before they enter the surburbs.
It sounds like the wild wild west in the isle of beauty isle of splendour dominicia. Dominicians wake and ask y paliamentry representative what are they going to do help stop all these crimes!
no comments for the time being, need to be more inform
well before i make my comment i need more information
I think we need a bigger jail and tougher sentences. The govt need to add that to their list. Along with cleaning up the police force of course. Tightening up legislation to allow people defending themselves to walk while coming down hard on troublemakers would be great. Let’s face it. We know who troublemakers are in dominica anyway. We need a good clean up, especially if an airport is on the way. Oh, and the police need training on how to gather evidence and make prosecutions stick, even on appeal. Get to it.
Let me think oh I am sure that the incident occured because Skeritt did not create jobs not because they are worthless.
Dominica UK you must be listening to gossip. Stop this. So everything is about the Hon. PM. You talk like a fool who only repeating what you hear. Give some facts on your statement. So everything that happens is the PM. Poor PM .. God is listening and he knows and sees, hears everything. Take note Dominica UK.
“Poor PM.” De PM is laughing at you.
Just relax…Dominica UK was just be sarcastic.
I think Dominica UK was being sacrcastic…after all anything that happen in Dominica is skerrit fault smh…car accident skerrit fault, gang fight skerrit fault, hurricane skerrit fault, psunami skerrit fault…smdh. everything cannot be politicized
you’re such an air head. can’t you see that Dominica UK was just being sarcastic but you are so political yourself that you are always in the attack mode. get an education and come again.
So I do believe that Dominica UK was striking a sarcastic tone if u plz…if i am not mistaken.
Again Dominica UK how many jobs did u create? Cannot do something positive but dependant on someone for everything.
Dominica UK is only being sarcastic please do not attack him/her!!!!!!!!
You are one type of person who should know, learn and practice: “Be sure that your brain is engaged before putting your mind, mouth in gear and your fingers to the keyboard and utilizing the sent button.”
These people who are involved in this shooting situation,
Do you know who they are?
Do you know if they even had an education or completed schooling?
Do you know what type of lifestyle they live?
Do you know what type of job they are capable of performing?
Do you know if they ever sought employment and if they want to work?
If they were people of consequence, interested in building up their life and enhancing their situation and their country, they would not have found themselves in a free for all which led to shootings. They have depicted that they are not people of good character who an employer could employ and trust and who could diligently work for honest pay. It appears they are not interest in working.
Before writing such garbage think twice.
“Before writing such garbage think twice”.
Please stop this. Can you write something that is worth reading?
Oh my not nice.
Certainly not nice news indeed, We can do without that kind of “development” as they say. Dominicans the elections are over. Let us go back to normal living each puling their weight to ensure that the country leap frog forward. There is a new government in office. It cannot be that the incident happened because of Pm Skerrit. What nonesense. Such a statement could be tolerated in the heat of an election campaign. But that is over – long gone.
