    they did it in salisbury and no one did anythng but the yampiece ppl stood there grounds and their own gun shoot their own partner.

    Look another little one come up yampiece with a gun today and the ppl from yampiece hold him and call the police. So i want to commend the ppl from yampiece for this and continue to look out for one another and stop the fighting and division.

    I pray that the police deal with this young man very seriously, the one who came to yampiece with the gun today. Because they have money and think they will just pay in court and tomorrow the boss man give them a next gun. Them police need to pull up their socks and stop their vehicles and when they passing on their bikes. They believe they are iron.

    Carnival they walking with guns and when the police coming, they giving them young stupid girls to hold the guns for them. These young girls need help.

    Yampiece, Tarish, Gutter Goodwill, Stock farm, Fondcole, come together as one. More love and unity and i love the work done today by the community of yampiece, and the police need to set an example with this young man, you charge him $5,000.00 and tomorrow they give him another gun.

    An excuse for his injury and near fatal death? Hiding from the truth? Your comments depict that you must know something about this. The police should question you.

    These guys have too much jewelry. I am working so hard and cannot even afford to buy food much less to buy all the jewelry. Parents and Government pay attention. Dominica is small, someone knows about the drugs in Dominica, and they are hiding it. See what is happening to Mexico and Colombia is drugs. The drug dealers killing police officers, ministers, children, anyone who is in their way. Pay attention. Quick money, Quick death, no one is exempt from this ruthless crimes. The love of money is the root of evil.

    If they youths keep killing each other the next five years, tell me how much young men we have left in Dominica. That’s why people from other countries will come and populate the country. That’s life, we are taking Dominica and our freedom for granted. Other people are seeing the opportunity to come in and we have to deal with that. Wake up Dominica and smell the coffee.

        I agree with Rastafari. The religious community in Dominica seems to concentrate on only some kinds of sin and not others. They should be out front addressing ALL the moral issues affecting Dominica.

    Those who live by the gun/drugs will die by the gun/drugs. It is just a pity, when bullets are flying, innocent people will be in the cross fire. A bullet has no eyes, it hit what every it is aimed at and when it is fired, there is not turning back. A lot of the parents know what their children are involved in, but makes so many cover ups.

    Stop blaming the Haitians coming to Dominica, because the young ones in Dominic don’t want to work hard, and get easy money. Well that comes with a price. What a waist of life. God we need you more than ever. Not only with lips service, because the future, if these youths don’t change their mentality, will be dark and hopeless.

    This is one who missed the carnival enjoyment. I hope he recovers in time.
    Why was he shot? Can they not argue or have a misunderstanding without using a gun/weapon? I always wonder where these people get guns and how were they able to be in the country especially in the hands of those who are poor.
    I hope the perpetrator is caught, the gun is found and seized and this criminal is dealt with accordingly by the Court/magistrate.
    Thou shalt not harm anyone, under any condition. It is a serious crime and deserves punishment which should fit the crime.

    yes i guess there are no cameras, one more reason for the government to invest in these cameras. the young man could loose his life and no name no warrant.

    Too many shootings for such a small population. What use do you have for firearms in such a beautiful environment? Dominica should ban firearms all together.
