Linton ‘fearful;’ to stay away from Carnival

Linton said he will be staying away from Carnival

Opposition Leader Lennox Linton has said he is “fearful” and has decided not to attend Carnival activities following remarks made by Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit at a Dominica Labour Party (DLP) public meeting held in St Joseph on Tuesday night.

In his speech the Prime Minister who has been under pressure in recent times told his supporters, “it is fight back time” against critics and detractors, including members of the opposition United Workers Party (UWP).

He also referred to the opposition as ‘traitors’ and told supporters to so name them wherever they are seen.

“I say to you they are traitors! I view them as traitors and I want you to do the same as well. When you see them on the streets, in the supermarket, at a funeral, on a plane or even in their cars, shout out to every single one of them – Traitor!,” Skerrit said.

According to Linton, who was speaking live on privately-owned Q-95’s Talk-on-the-Block program on Wednesday, Skerrit is basically setting up his party to fight.

“Right now…. I am fearful and I am wondering whether I can reasonably put myself in a position where I can go to any Carnival activities in 2016,” he said. “The Calypso Finals is coming up this weekend, there is the National Queen Competition. Am I going to put myself in a crowd of people, a number of whom may have listened to Mr. Skerrit and may be willing to take his advice and come up in my face and subject me to that kind of harassment?”

Linton believes that it may even go further than that, “because some people may feel that they are not getting what they want from the harassment and they might feel they want to harm you.”

Because of that, he said, he has since decided not to partake in the Carnival celebrations this year.

“I am not going anywhere for the Carnival season, I am going to be at home,” he noted. “I don’t know if they are going to be bold enough to come up at my home and shout ‘traitor’ at me, but I am not going to put myself in harm’s way…”

Linton said provocation is against the law, “and I always heard and learnt that ignorance of the law is no excuse.”

“Mr Skerrit knows what he did was an act inciting provocation, violence against us, the members of the United Workers Party…,” he argued. “He is encouraging lawless behaviour against me and other members of the United Workers Party.”

Linton stated that it concerns him that he hasn’t heard a single word from the police authority on the matter.

“It is incredible that a Prime Minister can go in a public place speak to the nation and the rest of the world in those terms about me, incite violence against me and I hear nothing from the Police Commissioner,” he stressed. “I am an elected member of the Parliament of Dominica and the Leader of the Opposition as to the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Dominica, and another constitutional figure issues those threats and incites that sort of harassment, persecution against me and there is nothing that I am hearing from the Police Commissioner.”

    “What in hell does Paul’s situation have to do with Lennox Linton–did Lennox tell you that God called him to some kind of mission? Well if so God is very displeased with him

    If you are expecting me to suffer any kind of pain, don’t hold your breathe.

    As I said already: “I am a woman of Grace both physically and Spiritually, but then you are too backwards to understand that; growing up in your Black Lagoon dwelling;”(Elizabeth Xavier).

    Again be reminded my daddy the late notorious Hector Isaac Telemaque taught me never to argue with a fool because the fool will always win the argument because the fool understands only what originates in their mentally corrupted mind!

    Why should I argue with a mentality ill woman who is so ill that she impersonates herself and has no clue she is doing it!

      I must asks you this: are you suggesting, or insinuating that God did not call Lennox for some kind of mission, however, God has called Skerrit, and told him his mission is to rule over Dominica? Well, I will be honest and admit, I do not know if God called Lennox, and sent him on a quest ,or a mission; God has not reveled that to me.

      Nevertheless; I assure you that God said “by their fruits ye shall know them.” The fruits which Skerrit produce certainly proves that God did not call Skerrit, nor gave him a mission. If he did Skerrit has long fell out of the grace of God!

      Now; this nonsense you keep talking about you are a woman of grace, you need to stop that crap, because there is no place in the Bible where any woman is identified as a woman of grace. Israel, and the Jews lived under the law of God. When Jesus went on the cross and died the law was abolished, and grace came into effect; every true Christian now lives by grace, and under the grace of God okay.

      Now: “Hale…

        February 5, 2016

        Now: “Hale Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee blessed art thou among women, blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.” The Roman Catholics repeat that as a prayer, however, that is a complement extended to Mary when Jesus moved in her womb by one who was visiting with her. If you are a woman of Grace, then I am a man of grace too; because we now operate under the grace of God, and no longer under the law, as a matter of fact the Gentiles were never under the law, the law was given specifically to the Jews! You think you know the Bible better than anybody else.

        I studied the Bible so that when I hear people like you lying about God word, I can rebuke you!

    • “Why should I argue with a mentality ill woman who is so ill that she impersonates herself and has no clue she is doing it!”

      When you write this kinds of stuff here, ask yourself who is mentally ill.

      I said already that you are so cracked up, you don’t even beong with the people at a mad house; you need a abyss (deep hole) for your self alone–you are proving me right, each time you write that kind of stupidity which is quoted above

      Also everytime you lost the battle, you come out with your rubbish–you and your daddy is from the same place –from the Twilight Zone into the Black Lagoon–I wouldn’t expect him to teach you better. The two of you are not of the human species. You cannot relate to us neither can we relate to you

      • And one more thing! Are you talking about the daddy, who told his wife (not your mother) to call the police before he gets you out of his sight with the bullet of a gun?

        That information is from you, yourself–the perfect source. So then you two could not have had that kind relationship where he would be advising you of anything fruitful. One more great lie of yours again, eh! Good grief!

        Now if I was mentally ill, I could not have remembered those things from since 5 years ago, would I!

      • There is another thing! Why did you not copy and paste that last paragraph of mine to you as well–are you ashamed to let the audience know that you are nothing pertaining to spiraling upwards as you so stupidly speak about Linton.

        Well I will do it for you, so our audience will see that you are speaking about yourself when you speak those lies about me. Here it is below:

        “You speak about yourself pertaining to pain and suffering–I have nothing to worry about in this world. I am not the one striving to keep my head above water; so I won’t be sent to jail for not paying my creditors for holding their possession as if they were mine”

        Yes, you glad that you get some news from me so that you can talk about it. My father is dead anyway so leave him out of your commess!

        You can say a what you want about me and my father, I don’t car, cause I know where he is buried, I was there, but you doh know where your daddy is buried, cause you were not at his funeral. If you did not have any money to go home, all you had to do was ask me maybe I would have given you some money to go home.

        You see what you get for talking about my father and I. You can’t be trusted, you talk about everybody business, that is why I fired you a long time ago, you are a betrayer of trust. If is one thing I will never do is betray the trust of anyone. I someone trust me with some information while we are friends, and then we become enemies, I would never for as long as I live reveal what the told me to anyone, not even if they told me the committed murder!

        Elizabeth, you cant be trusted oui!

      Francisco, you are in the habit of insulting people on this Website. This is uncalled for. Everyone is free to agree or disagree and provide their comments. Why do you love to throw words? Some of your words may not be even true. They are vindictive and an exaggeration. Can you not learn to respond respectfully?
      Do you at least have an understanding of God? You should know that God is a God of love and peace; not confusion. He expects that everyone will live in love, peace and harmony. He does not incite people to hatred, to cause trouble, to throw words, division, disunity and to disrupt the society.
      People are also known by what they state. You know what Our Lord said: “What comes out of the mouth defiles that person for it comes from the heart.” In this case it comes from the heart/mind and through the fingers on the keyboard.
      Be kind!

    Sir, go and enjoy yourself. Do what you must in order to protect your life: so you own a firearm? take it with you. The behavior of the current PM and his sheep are disturbing! Imagine that! This ma is fearful for his life” What is our country turning to? oh yeah, they say if you lie with dogs, you are bound to get infested with fleas. Roosevelt has spent many days, months, years with his communist friend, so now he is mimicking their behavior.

    I was a Labourite but I just changed my mind tonight! I will NEVER cast another vote for Skerrit, NEVER. Your behavior is disgusting and mind boggling to me. I just can’t get over your narcissistic, childish, immature, comments. The good book say that when two or more agree in prayer, God hears: I hope my fellow Dominicans will join with me and PRAY YOU OUT OF OFFICE. You NEED to go asap! Enough! I also pray that you continue to lose supporters. I ain’t NEVER coming back. You are a bully, Mr PM.

      The Good Book also says: Do not wish that evil befall anyone. Do not place an obstacle in anyone’s way.
      You have disregarded the words of Linton and his attitude toward the PM. Have you been sleeping?
      Christians should know it is foolish, ignorant and futile to pray that anything adverse befall another. Actually, it is ungodly.
      Who are you taking God for when you pray in this evil manner, wishing another no good? Such prayers are never answered. If per chance you think they are answered, they will be a hanger for your jacket. Keep note of this.

    Nelson Mandela was jailed and had terrible things done to him . In life and death he was honoured by the very persecuters, and kings and men of high repute. hold on Lennox, you are in the company of the very few distingusihed men who have passed this way. Maligned, hated, persecuted, scoffed at, provoked, jailed, crucified for speaking truth to power. Hold on man, let Jesus be your role model, lay down your life for the hating crowd! Do it in grand style too.

    As far as staying away, do so- live to tell another day. Don’t fall prey to their antics and machinations planned at devilish hours. Be wise. Your time has not yet come! You have a tremendous amount of work, sometimes daunting, but it’s your work to do. Look up, let Jehovah look down. Hold On!

      Some of you make such outlandish comments. It is an insult comparing Nelson Mandela to Linton and vice versa. There is a vast difference between Nelson Mandela and Linton.
      Is Linton deprived of his human rights? Is he deprived of freedom of speech? Is he badly treated? Is he thrown into prison? There is no comparison to Nelson Mandela.
      The problem with Linton is he is too free with his tongue/mouth. You want to bet that his actions were not genuine, saying that he cared for the Dominican people?
      His intentions were not good. They were vindictive against the PM, his Ministers and Pinard-Byrne.. He wanted to debase/bring them down into nothing.. Anyone with common sense and intelligence should know that.

      Telemaque should be written thus: Te’le’maque; It is French: Hence the English version is written “Telemaque” in French the “que” is silent, therefore it has no pronunciation; however, the “C” which you add has no meaning since it is not required to get the pronunciation.

        Francisco, do not generalize. Too often some of you do that, placing everyone in the same category. I need not elaborate.
        I know I do not fall in this category that you describe others about and paint them to be. There is a difference in people’s comments who also try to explain issues and what they try to relay. You should know we are not all one and the same, if you know what I mean.
        Remember, just as people are judged by the company they keep and birds of a feather flock together, they are also judged by their words and actions. Therefore, cease your criticisms and open your eyes and mind to what each state be it face to face. According to your words/comments, you are worth criticizing. You can never comment without throwing insults.
        Judge yourself and speak for yourself. You are the master of insults and do not care about the feelings of others as long as you state what is in your (warped) mind. A change of your written-style would be welcomed.

    Somehow I think everyone is missing the point. There is nothing wrong with calling Lennox Linton a traitor. That is just politics. Its like calling Skerrit a thief. However the problem lies when you ask supporters to verbally attack persons in public. That was an irresponsible statement. It could like to confrontations that cause violence. So I believe that politicians on both sides while using their political rhetoric should be conscious of not inciting violence among the people. Because at the end of the day we are not labourites or UWPites; we are Dominicans.

    I do not condone violence either way. UWP actually asked for violence not too long ago, now the PM says to shout traitor and it is an issue. They are both wrong but Linton does need to grow up and stop moaning man. I mean, he does give a hell of a lot of grief to the man. So how can you attack a man daily, like a ritual, and you do not expect that person to say anything? Not that Skerrit does himself any favours but that is what Dca politics have turned into. Garbage. Honestly, and this is just my view, Linton has played a big big role in bringing politics to this position. You cannot just assume you can say what you want when you want and will not face consequences. You are not protected by media laws any more as you’re now a politician. Be responsible. That’s both side too. They just pathetic. We have Zika, then Erika still biting & carnival is here, yet they arguing over nonsense.

      It is one thing for the Prime Minister to call Mr. Linton a Traitor; however, it is another thing for the Prime Minister to tell his supporters to call members of the opposition Traitors when they are at a funeral, on planes, even in their cars. Those are two different things, and the Prime Minister is wrong. That statement must be condemned, and the Prime Minister owes an apology to all Dominicans who belong to and support the opposition.

    Hi Sir Linton, remember the attack airport statement….. remember the Salisbury Road blocks you supported… just two lawless acts you are guilty off. I could list more but for space. Now you calling on the same police you attack and ridicule to do what???? prevent another man from acting the same way you have done?? I think you have a serious problem. You have no moral authority to command the police to act. You need to check yourself and be an example then you can condemn such words from someone else. Shameless.

    I was expecting a breakdown of the amount of monies received to date from the ecoomic programme, but I did not hear that so i think the opposition is on the right tract by asking about that source of income and where it is and how it is being spent. Most times i think the opposition have it wrong, but this time I think the Pm is rattld by something, so the oppositon is onto something here, and the people of Dominica should ask for accountability, for th money is supposed to be for the people. Inciting people to call people traitor at a time like this is most unbecoming, how diffrnt is this from Danny Lugay comment which led to him being suspended from parliament.

    Lennox, stop acting like a WIMP. You are very good at criticizing, name calling and all of the above, but when its your turn to take your blows you shrink like a weasel. You are a manipulator using others to feel sorry for you. You are currently using what Skerrit said as a scapegoat to cover you crushed ego, your embarrassment and humiliation. You are a pretender who think you are invincible but deep down inside, you a weak. You are not suit to be a political leader. Stay away from politic. Its not good for you. When Michael Jordon thought he would be a good baseball player after retiring from basketball, he was quick to realize that was not for him.

    I agree politics can be a nasty game . In my country this type of threats and intimidation is the worst it has gotten . The PM needs to apologize to the state and the Opposition members for his arrogance and out burst of anger . The PM has over the years been under the microscope , if he felt he was or is being defamed , be a man like Byrnns and take the members to court and have them sued . Why use this medium to spray his venom ? What message is he sending to our already high tempered youth population , that they can provoke or attack those who opposes them even though their critic is genuine ? Many may politicize my comment , but I believe the PM went over board and people of high repute should sit the PM and have him come to his senses and retract his statements and apologize . This is a Nazi behavior . Temper management is recommended where applicable .

      The Prime MInister needs a new group of advisers. He needs people of wisdom, diplomacy and humility if he wishes to be respected as a leader. Those who are whispering in his ear do not have his best interest at heart, and he needs to get rid of them. Alas, such men and women of wisdom are too afraid to offer their wisdom to the PM. Afraid of losing his favor, afraid of losing their positions, afraid of losing their jobs, afraid of his retaliation. Here is my advice to the PM:

      Walk in light, truth and humility. Every day ask for wisdom and guidance to be a servant leader. Remember that forgiveness sets the one who has been hurt free. Walk in forgiveness. Remember that absolute power corrupts absolutely.
      Get a press secretary who gives a daily briefing to the country on matters of significance and of relevance to each and every Dominican. Share information on your travels prior to you traveling. Share your itinerary, members of your traveling team, and the results of your travels.”

    February 4, 2016

    Linton has done much harm in D/ca, to the PM and DLP. We have all read about Linton’s adverse attitude. He harbors hatred for the PM.
    It is not surprising that the PM is angry with Linton who has projected his disdain for him since Day 1. Linton is consistently uncooperative.
    I would not call Linton a traitor to his face but he is indeed a traitor and even to those who elected him. What has Linton done for them since elected?
    I have noted what Linton’s supporters stated about the PM on this Website. They are scandalous.
    It is amazing that the PM did not sue all concerned for defamation of character.
    Linton has caused much disturbance in Dominica, to the point of inciting his supporters to disunity and causing divisions in the land. If Linton’s supporters are blind and deaf or pretend to be, revert to all Linton’s words and actions as documented.
    Linton, examine your conscience, your words and actions toward the PM. The PM has been very patient with you.

    So this is the next level, eh?The PM of a democratic,peaceful country is exhorting his followers to go out of their way to terrorize the elected leader of the opposition, and other members of the opposition. These are parliamentarians that he is asking his goons to attract.My advice to all opposition members is to file official reports with the police that they have been threatened and fear for their safety and that of their families.
    Why am I not surprised by this low class and undemocratic behavior of Mr Skerritt? There is a saying tell me who your friends are and I’ll tell you who you are.His good friends in Venezuela and other nefarious regimes that he frequents,should tell us that this is the type of behavior that Mr Skerritt is likely to display. I’m not shocked at all.And to think he called for confrontation in the heart of the carnival season. This is a time when a lot of alcohol is consumed and drunkards are known to be all about.This is a new low in Dominican politics.

    I am shocked that the leader of our country would make such a statement. This is certainly calling for violence and a continuation of the division that is assailing our land. Mr. Skerritt has demonstrated a lapse in judgement by making this outrageous comment. He has sunk to the bottom of the pit and must work very hard to restore confidence in his ability to lead the country.
    Any right thinking person should strongly condemn this statement. We are a country of laws and to have the leader on a public platform order the people to call others traitors even on planes, is a recipe for a revolution! Shame! Shame! Shame!
    It is time for the PM to apologize, and time for the Police Commissioner to investigate this threat and take immediate action.
    The PM must step down immediately. He is not fit to lead the country. He has reached the end of the line of his leadership when he has sunk to this level. This statement has overshadowed and obliterated all the good that he has done! Goodbye!

      Skerrit does not have the ability to lead!

      In making that stupid comment proves the man is semi-illiterate; no leader of a country would insight a civil war in a nation that he/she is at the apex. So you see how easy it was for Ralph Gonzalez of St. Vincent, and the Birds of Antigua to manipulate him like a twisted string around their small finger; twisted his mind with the idea that Dominica would be much better off not having an International Airport.

      Every leader in the Caribbean laughs at that man Dominica is a small country, where in every village, and in Roseau are related in some way, what Skerrit has done is set a dividing line against families, setting them up to kill each other; what kind of a human would do something like that?

    “it is fight back time” against critics and detractors, including members of the opposition United Workers Party (UWP).(Skerrit).

    Here is the double standards in Dominica: Lugay said some people in Dominica has to die first, or something to that effect before Dominica can beginning to make some progress; he mentioned no one name! He was arrested; and was treated as a common criminal. Lennox made a comment that politicians in Dominica preys on young women when they seek economic assistance form them,

    All of the politicians including Skerrit ran and file law suite against Lennox. Here is a direct threat against members of the opposition, and innocent citizens of the country. Nevertheless we have yet to see the police go and arrest Skerrit for sighting, and condoning violence in the country which could lead to the murder of members of the opposition.

      In England in the 1800’s a politician stood on a podium, and asked “who shall be my avenger,” against his opponent, and critic?

      With those few words, one of his political supporters went out and murdered his opponent, political rival; and critic! What Skerrit has done here is use precisely the same psychology used on someone shallow in England more than three hundred years ago!

      “It is fight back time against critics and detractors,” Fight back against what; or shall I ask who are the detractors, and critics at this time. Skerrit; like Nebuchadrezzar has seen the hand writing on the wall, he knows bribes will not help him this time. Therefor he has become desperate, his hope is that his supporters will take to the streets wreaking havoc and killing everything in their path including members of the opposition.

      Such comments exposed the true nature of the beast!

    @daughter of the soil, It is not enough to condemn the statement and in the same breath tell Linton we are peaceful. While I agree with you that we are peaceful, when a person, especially the leader of a country calls on his supporters to provoke Linton and others on the streets, cars, supermarket, plane or even at funerals, ONLY God knows what could happen

    History tells us that followers take the advise of their leaders. Example, John Jones called his followers to action and they acted. A few years ago, Savarin called on laborites to boycott Breezys mart and they did just that. Last month before Matt called on supporters of UWP to raise $80K and they acted and raised over $100K in three days. Followers listen to their leaders!

    The Opposition Leader and the Prime Minister are playing games with the people and its time for us to get off the merry go round. The level of political discussion is so anemic . Both sides, thinks their own propaganda is truth. In my humble opinion Mr Skerrit and Mr Linton are working behind the scenes that Yin and yang is working like clockwork.

    (Yin and yang)
    In Chinese philosophy, yin and yang (also yin-yang or yin yang, 陰陽 yīnyáng “dark—bright”) describes how opposite or contrary forces are actually complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Many tangible dualities (such as light and dark, fire and water, expanding and contracting) are thought of as physical manifestations of the duality symbolized by yin and yang

They seem to have a penchant for tearing down each other rather than working together for the common good of the country. I believe that at this juncture in our history, moving forward we as a people should make sure that no one political party should dominate in governance. There should always be a coalition government if we are going to make any progress as a nation. It is time to have at least two more political parties with serious leadership.

I did not even like his personality when he was reading news on marpin. However, in all honesty, I firmly believe the man is the best opposition leader the country has ever had, in terms of staying focused on issues and run away from that maypwee thing.

    “tonight I say to you they are traitors…and I want you to do the same as well. When you see them on the streets, in the supermarkets, at a funeral, on a plane or even in their cars shout out to every single one of them, ‘traitor.’”

    This statement was brought to my attention today but I wanted to see it with my eyes before commenting. After reading it in context, I was shocked to hear the utterances of a countries Prime Minister, right in the back yard of the Americas. Many bloggers referred to it as inciting violence, but in reality it is a threat, and a call to attack. If such statement was made in the USA be it in a private meeting or a private conversation, an arrest would be in order.

    FAA takes such threats very seriously since 911, especially with ISIS that is not naturally labelled, and could come from any country. To hear the Prime Minister call on his supporters, to attack members of the Parliament even ON THE PlANE, is a very serious call from a national leader

      What an embarrassment for a pm.Its funny how Lugay was charged for a statement way less threatening.Let me see what the com of police is going to do.Where are the senior police officers.Thats not the same force I used to be a member of.How low can a pm get.You are asking your supporters to even go after dead people.Those are the words of a weak and dying man.Blackmore I trained with you and you know better.You need to go confront the pm and let him know what he said was wrong.

    • February 4, 2016

      @ FBI Agent what threat? Is the word traitor now weaponized or is it the long sought after weapons of mass destruction? If it is a threat as you say it is why does the FAA allow passengers to board airplanes with their tongues untied or not in the checked luggage bin. And we continue to look for new masters , who the hell cares about what would happen in the USA, we are not part of the USA. You all act as if Skeritt is the Prime Minister of the world, he is the PM of Dominica only and his politics is local. So if someone calls you traitor just call them traitor, and stop trying to create a mountain out of a mole hill.

      @ me, When was bobbles provoked in HIS yard? I hope you are not referring to the villas of Skerrit that Bobbles lied about.

      Pro. 13:22 which reads ” A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children:” is a passage Christians talk about a lot. I challenge you to ask bobbles to which of his children is the villas willed, should he die tomorrow. He cant because he knows it’s not his! I further challenge you to ask his former pastors from Vielle case who is the true owner of the hotel and see if bobbles name will be called. Furthermore, I challenge you to ask men that worked on the villas who paid them and who owns the hotel and you will see if bobbles name will be called.

    What Mr Skerrit asked his supporters is to do is wrong.
    And it should be condemned. And he should retract !
    This detracts from the Fact that what Mr Linton and others in the opposition are doing to willfully and maliciously tarnish Dominica’s name and image, in their efforts to gain power,
    Are the Actions of TRAITORS.

And to see Mr. Linton taking what Skerrit say soo personal?

You will never see that happen to Lennox, you are already down to the lowest level. There is only one way Lennox can go, and that is to spiral upwards from here on!

        You are some kind of Christian; the Bible teaches to fear the wicked, and so I must declare Elizabeth, I fear you because you are wicked, people need to watch out for you kind when you come talking about God.

        Examine your conduct, on this Website, and conclude if your behavior is an example of that of a professing Christian; and see how many you can convince you are a Christian!

        Listen, you ugly crocodile! I am not in this world to please man, and most certainly not you! You want to carry Linton on your shoulder, claiming him to be your king–well he is not my king and I do not choose what you have chosen.

        You are a damn fool to say that a person who waits on the public to pay his dues of a court dispute is going “spirial upwards”–what is the structure of that spiral–dried bamboo stems? Because I don’t see him going upwards –I see him on his way towards a fatal collapse

        I am have been reading about PM Skerrit since 2009, before he won that 18-3 election; I perceived his character from that time and it was favorable to me

        Now it is better because, I don’t just read about him, I see him at work, I see him with his family; PM Skerrit is a good man–you are simply jealous and envy him–let it consume you to death!

    Is any Labourat man enough to tell Roosevelt Skerrit that his comments were out of place and he should retract them immediately? It is one thing to LOVE YOUR PM but it is encouraging real political nastiness to accept that nonsense.
    Skerrit is a big child who tries to display his manhood and power.
    Last week school children were demonstrating against bullying and now the Prime Minister of Dominica demonstrates bullying in its most scandalous form.
    Can you imagine if a school principal tells its student to call a teacher ugly? Is that bullying? Of course it is. So when a Prime Minister who is supported by the country’s police, senior lawyers, private sector, judicial system and every power of the country, calls on his supporters to heckle and torment people who do not appear to support his political tribe, this is the worst type of bullying and Lennox and the rest should be very careful, they must remember GON Emmanuel.

Before he gave his faint hearted apology, did you hear Linton or any other UWP member call on Danny to retract. By his own admission, Danny made the statement twice in the presence of the top brass of the UWP. No comment. Having said all that I would much prefer you had first accepted that the UWP should have chastised Danny before his apology. They would now have the moral authority to shout “wolf”.

I know you have a fighting spirit in the interest of the nation but nonetheless you have to consider your family and take all necessary precautions.

    To those who may call you coward or whatever let it be because they are the same ones who would love to see someone attack you just to see your response. Then they will all say you should have walked away because you are “LL”. You see, Monga was sitting playing Dominoes when he was fired upon and killed in cold blood. I was no fan of Monga but I still can’t believe up to this day the police have not made an arrest. Is it because they fear retribution by certain people in power? We don’t know that but it leaves much to be considered.

Remember the police reaction when they were instructed to find out who was writing under the name JOshua in the Chronicle; they tried to intimidate the editor and manager remember. remember the reaction of the police and the church when Danny made his statement. Although he apologized they still went on to arrest him. Remember the DPP advised against pursuing the case but they insisted – the magistrate dismissed the matter but under pressure it was reinstated- got a QC from Trinidad to prosecute – the rest is history but Dice says it well ‘ police commissioner, pastors, priest and all dance to my command” so his pundits must find excuses.

    That’s one man that just ain’t bright at all, playing petty little game. People will say alas look Linton can’t go anywhere. You were never the type to go to any show, so after the carnival would the so called threat still be there? You backed Lugay when he said ” If I was not a man in church I would take out a lot of these men, these kind of people need to die but am a man in church” this guy can’t do anything right. What a lead-rassta.

    Why are my people so bias? The PM is the leader of the country and inciting or encouraging such behavior against anybody much less other elected official can turn deadly fast. If someone were to get hurt in the process of following the PM order, the PM can be sued and will prosecuted and could possibly face imprisoment depending on the nature of the crime. “If someone get killed in the process” I would advise the PM to retract that statement

      And still yet, there are those who want to go at length and argue that Skerrit is a good leader. What a travesty! To whom is Skerrit a model? Who wants to emulate Skerrit other than those who want to suck the blood of the nation while the majority is sent to sousay sel?

    Another outrageous spin, how did Skeritt threaten the leader of the oppossition so that he could fear for his life?. I did not hear Alick Lawrence crying when a certain UWP oppossition senator threatened to take him out. As a matter of fact this oppossition senator had the full support of his party and supporters and went on to win his seat. Violence and the threat of violence is part of the UWP mo, the Salisbury demonstration is an example of the UWP love for the use of violence.

      Alick didn’t cry you foolish man! Alick cry so much that they arrested Danny wee! they had a case against him although Danny publicly apologized. Alick did not show up for the case on more than one accession because he was busy doing others things I not sure if it was in Dubia.

    • Sakwe Gas
      February 3, 2016

      Clearly, you weren’t paying close attention, because the FACT is Alick “cried” so much they had the opposition senator arrested, barred from attending parliament, and eventually gave up when they saw they had no real case.

      Whether or not you think violence is part of the UWP’s motto, does not suddenly justify it’s use by a sitting prime minister. We need to elevate our thoughts and actions in this country. The ignorance is getting more and more spectacular while the country gets more and more backward!

      • February 3, 2016

      • February 3, 2016

        Yes, Lugay was arrested but he had the full support of his party leadership he was not condemned by his party for his “take out” statement. What Skeritt said is nowhere close to what lugay said, as a matter of fact the supporters of Lugay were so satisfied with his statement that they gave him a overwhelming victory in Roseau North. @ vegnag could you tell me what Alick crying statement was? Did he say he was not going to continue to sit on the commission or was he going to stay at his home until Lugay was jailed? Skeritt cannot be arrested as he has not committed a crime. If you don’t like the names people call you sue them and that is a civil matter not criminal.

        mampo, is your brain in gear?

  113. So what is the big deal about attending carnival or not doing so? God is will not hold it against you; so what does it matter who does?

    “This about me”, “that against me” “harassment this and “persecution” that. And so, where are the police?

    Lennox, if you had any faith in God, fleshly fear could never overcome you the way you are expressing it now. But that is your greatest problem–you think that you created yourself–just read your words above: “I am an elected member of the Parliament of Dominica and the Leader of the Opposition as to the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Dominica” big deal!

    How many times in the past year, have you tried to intimidate PM Skerrit–even demanding his resignation–giving him 30 days to do so–in the middle of the crisis of storm Erika –when did he sent the police after you? NEVER!

    Now you are crying where the Police–to do what, may I ask? All I will about you now is POOR BABY!

    • Sakwe Gas
      February 3, 2016

      Religion has blinded you to professionalism. Calling for someone’s resignation for a job poorly done, by submitting a clear letter in writing, is what professionals are expected to do to show their dissatisfaction.

      Jumping on a stage talking about “it’s time to fight back” that you are “mad” and “angry” and should call people traitors even at funerals….and this from a man who is supposed to be the LEADER of a country. My friend, if that is the leadership you expect and support, Dominica has yet to see it’s darkest days. All other Caribbean nations are promoting their economic growth, improved tourism product, etc. What can we boast of? A lunatic that spends more time abroad and comes home to foment divisiveness among his people?! Grow up!

      • @Sakwe Gas February 3, 2016

        Now you are all over DNO’ news articles writing with different “identities”–you cannot fool me one bit; I know you moves–like quoting from the news article before you write and other codes of your mind. But why won’t you use the name which you love so much–your own name.?

        What is a professional in a person who claims to be brave in speaking for the sake of fame and power–but when he is called to pay for his wrong doings he cannot do that; so his supporters take the tab. And professional above who, may I ask?

        All other Caribbean Islands are improving the economy, that is because they don’t have someone like Lennox Linton and his followers pressing against everything PM Skerrit and his government initiates–much worse that he sits at parliament with the belief that he is sitting above God, Himself .

        Well God has said:” No flesh will glory in His presence” and now He is teaching Linton that lesson–I hope he is taking heed

      Elizabeth shut up!

      Although I believe that God will protect Lennox, the Bible also teaches to be smart like a serpent, and be harmless like a dove! Paul the apostle protected by God, new when to run in order to protect his own life. He was in a house teaching and preaching the word of God when people were in the way outside waiting to kill him.

      I order to save his life they put Paul a man of God, in a basket, and through a window on ropes tied to the basket let him down to the ground where he made his escape! You are the one who are always running off you mouth about God bless Skerrit!

      Has God blessed him to insight violence against Lennox and the rest of the opposition, and the general public? And the idiot you are condones Skerrit’s evil request for people intimidate and in the interim hurt and even murder the innocent. Your evil ways have already caught up with you Elizabeth; your suffering will be painful!

      • Telemaque, you stupid idiot, you are the one who needs to shut up!

        If you want to preach about Paul go find those idiots who will listen to your garbage-I want nothing to do with it.

        What in hell does Paul’s situation have to do with Lennox Linton–did Lennox tell you that God called him to some kind of mission? Well if so God is very displeased with him

        If you are expecting me to suffer any kind of pain, don’t hold your breathe.

        As I said already: “I am a woman of Grace both physically and Spiritually, but then you are too backwards to understand that; growing up in your Black Lagoon dwelling; your vermin and parasites family would not know what Grace is–neither do you

        You speak about yourself pertaining to pain and suffering–I have nothing to worry about in this world. I am not the one striving to keep my head above water; so I won’t be sent to jail for not paying my crediors for holding their possession as mine.

    This is a very serious call to action, by the person that vows to protect us. Skerrit is not a child but the prime minister. To call his troops to action against leaders of the opposition should not be taken lightly and, Mr Linton and all those Skerrit called by name should be afraid and need to take steps. First, they need to write to the commissioner, then they also need to copy the letter to home land security in the US as well as the FAA, since the call was also to attack them on the plane. This is very serious

While I condemned his statement at that time, you would have to be very well trained to be foolish to make that comparison. For the sake of justice, I really wish a close family member of yours would take inspiration from Skerrit and go call anyone traitor, so he /she could be dealt with according to the laws of Dominica.

    Well i think i smell a double standard Lennox Linton CAN and WILL continue to say whatever he wants about anybody with no care in the world because his supporters are wealthy and feel that they are obligated to pay his debt but the Prime Minister gave a few remarks on at a public meeting and every body making an issue….Last time i checked the Prime Minister is NOT GOD and he CANNOT make people do things he doesnt have a remote which controls his supporters every one has that right to make their own decisions and i am pretty sure that calling Lennox Linton traitor is the last thing on anyone’s mind.

    So lInton get a grip. By no means I am condoning violence but I personally believe that Linton is being a bit dramatic. Also i am not in the mind of the Prime Minister but if he is asking for a so called war you too Skerrit need a grip.

Although the DPP said there is no merit in the case they still went on with – the magistrate through it out but they got reinstated and got their QC from Trinidad to prosecute the case. The rest is history. Now is skerrit All of a sudden his defenders are saying is just a little statement Skerrit make and we taking it out of context.
