    I am in no way condoning any criminal activity of any sort, but the writer before me is making allot of sense in his utterances.

    Don’t you have a life besides spewing the same old garbage on a daily basis. What a sicko! GET A LIFE. Use your time wisely. Ibo as intelligent as you may want to sound it isn’t worth nothing, because your criticisms and intelligent thoughts are always used for nasty political rhetoric.

    Most crimes are solved by information from members of the public who have witnessed incidents of crime. It is therefore imperative for the CDPF to always have a good relationship with the whole community.

    Most resident Dominicans perceive the members of the present CDPF as a loose group of tyrants and hooligans who has brutalized even elderly women; arrested and murdered young men in custody; brought bogus charges on members of the Opposition; and who work at the behest of a cold, dark, nakedly corrupt leader.

    Why should they expect information to be forthcoming from these same people they often victimized and terrorised? Respect doesn’t come by fear nor brute force. Respect is earned. If one wants respect he has to show/give respect. The CDPF is a colossal failure. It should be purged.

    Well-loved. Like or Dislike: Thumb up 18 Thumb down 10
