    Listen to me. There are people who knows exactly who these little shitfaces are. People know. Their families know. Their friends know. Their girlfriends know. Their hommies know. But they remain silent on the matter. The community should take the blame for the level of crime in our beloved islands. Because they know alot and says nothing

    Another shooting? This is becoming far too frequent. It’s truly disheartening to see this kind of violence creeping into our peaceful island. The police need all the resources and support they can get to tackle this head-on. We can’t allow this to become the norm.

    Everywhere you turn people are hurting each other. Its the lack of love causing these things. The breaking of the commandment which says do unto others like you would like them to do unto you. Its a sad world we are living in
