    By reading this article I don’t have a clue of the real matter. But if DNO was moderating comments I and others would get a better understanding of what took place. That’s what DNO takes away from us when they don’t allow comments. Keep serving Skerrit instead

    All DNO doing is load with articles to read but not moderating any of our comments as if to say what we saying is garbage. But little that they know is the many comments of the bloggers that help readers understand and appreciate the articles. But we are in a dictatoship where Skerrit who is working for China is now Minister of information so DNO and our media houses are forced to either work for Skerrit or don’t modifying anyone in fear that they don’t offend their boss.
