    Yes Mr Junkere the Clown forgot.You know in those days police officers did not like politicians,they had nothing to do politicians.There was that BROTHERHOOD and Esprit de corps,it was a take me back home dead or alive.It was a ,we are declaring WAR on crimes and criminals.I am sure Mr.Junkere.you remember the police were trained by the Jamaican military and the 7th Special Forces 82nd AIRBORNE division from Forte Bragg.Some of these guys slept in the bush for days with their puncho,haversacks and C-RATS, some are still walking the Streets of Dominica.So,where did the police go wrong?All these military training took part during the reign of the DFP.What happened after the DFP was kicked out of office in 1995?And yes Mr.Junkere some of those who served this country during the Dread act,operation Red Dog,the 1981 attempted coup and as members of the CPF(Caribbean peace-keeping force) have died.The Clown is a patriot and when the time is right dress in battle fatigues again.(disclaimer)

    Why do we publish such hateful comment like this? The world is reading this and wondering what kind of people Dominica. Have writing such comment about their own countrymen. But everyone has their opinion.

    “A stitch is time saves nine.”
    Crime was allowed to fester for far too long without the attention and priority given to this scourge that was urgently needed. The present state of affairs in S. Lucia should be a teachable moment for its neighbours.

    These governments need to set up a priority list: stamping out of corruption; strong adherence to rule of law; an all out assault on poverty; produce most of what we consume; eliminate political divisiveness and promote unity; cut out favouritism and promote meritocracy; create a fair electoral system; a professional police force comprised of the best and brightest of society.

    With these, we should have fewer crimes, less poverty and more progress.

      Exactly what we expect to come from a clown – ASININITY galore!

        Don’t forget to share with ds for he’s desperately needy also. Remember to be hungry in a foreign land is worse than back at home.
