    So a Syrian business has been added to the list of “victims”. To those who have taken the wool from their eyes, this is no surprise and merely confirms the existence of a pill that no one wants to swallow, a reality that no one wants to face. THE SPATE OF ROBBERIES IS THE WORK OF AN ORGANIZED BODY WHOSE SOLE INTENTION IS TO DESTABILIZE THE COUNTRY WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF SEIZING THE REINS OF POWER IN A & B. A few savvy Antuguans have publicly noted that despite an (unacceptable) and alarming rapid increase in the Syrian population dominating the Tyre and fast foods “industry” in Antigua, they seemed immune to attacks from our picky-head black, useless boys and men. It was also noted that it was the small businesses that came under attack as opposed to the rich established businesses. I guess the idea was to come running to the rescue of small businesses under a comical pull-up program where they show up en masse to buy a beer or two as a sign of concern and solidarity. Until we broaden our range of thinking, we will continue to apply the wrong medication to the nation’s Mr. PM, widen your range of thinking. Take note of the flunkies that have been sent to block you vision including those that surround you and swear allegiance to you, and you can start right there at Point FM Radio!

    People with business need to protect themselves cause these lazy youths have illegal guns robbing them. Smady will kill them all. People have their businesses to sustain their families and black children dont want work just to be robbing folks. This shit must stop.
