Oh please shut the f__k with your’ll unending may God may God may God ,,, how long now you eh see that NOT working!!! Damnnn man !!
Too many I don’t know in St.Lucia.That’s The Problem
Troy shut ur dirty face it’s because of people like u that u and other idiots think it may not b working
Despite what Troy tried to say, I will repeat like the majority of us THANK GOD that our hitmen are amateurs or poor maxmen. In the past 3 weeks there has been at least two people injured through gun violence on a daily basis. If they were shot, it was meant for them to be killed. So we have to continue to pray and thank God for all these 20+ that were shot in the last three weeks that didn’t succumb. Currently we are second to Trinidad and Tobago with the highest murder rate per capita in the region of the Americas and the Caribbean. If we think that is not affecting us currently we are wrong. Our politicians are now Moumou so we have to be the loud voice in the wilderness.
Yeah boy PJP putting the people first, First to be shot at
Boy I tell you until they eh start to hang couple criminals it won’t stop
This is crazy, there was what 7 people shot on Independence Day,4 dead!? and now Sunday yesterday and today , 4 people Shot WTF SmPH people if someone is shot, First thing, take off your shirt, belt whatever u have and tie it around injury to create a tourniquet to stop bleeding it might mean the difference between life and death. PUT THE GUNS DOWN…..
Troy….I don’t blame you! I blame people who were older than you and never saw it necessary to have you love God! I used to be like you until I learnt the hard way that no man….no money…no friends …no family can help you when illness or bad situations come your way. You can only seek that comfort through HIm. Trust me.
Troy take it from me, without faith or a belief, there is just no hope at all.
And they want to promote Marchand for Jazz opening despite all the violence in the city
#TROY…I’m 100% with you on that god bull krap.
@Troy everyone is entitled to their own opinion. You do not have to believe what Truth be Told believes – however, there is no reason to use profanity at him or her in a forum where everyone has a voice – let’s be respectful of each other while we agree to disagree.
Troy is not wrong. Even the biblical zealots among you know the phrase
“God helps those who help themselves”
So now it is time to show decisive actions and solve the problem.
Only then will blessings (if you believe)
Follow.
@ Jay ,,, you’re right, the use of profanity wasn’t necessary, I am sorry. Humble apologies to “Truth be told”.
@critical thinker critically thinking and @perry jerry go hide u all self or better yet get lost what is to be will be leave people alone u vaccine takers…nonsense
It’s the op*osition who have created this mess, we need God and strong measures by the police to clean up our land
Where was God when black people was enslaved for 400 years where was the black mans God to free him from bondage
Very sad to hear all this going on in St.lucia. in USA some cities are become like wild wild west 😜. U have to bust your ass in us to live in nice communities.. lucians get jealous when folks go home with things. Sorry this is my original home but no place to come back tooo. Sad.
St.lucia is becoming a sad place sometimes. Who will return home to retire and homes getting looted. Lucia stand up

It is up to every St.Lucian to take responsibility to fight the violent crime that has become an international embarrassment. Each and every mother and father must take steps to protect their children and loved ones from the criminals in our midst, from stray bullets that kill and maim. From hiding away in fear and apathy.
Every time another person is shot, the economy feels the ripples, as tourists cancel trips and the world turns to other islands and safer vacation destinations.
Murder does not occur in a vacuum, and in every instance, a family member or friend is fully aware of the gun owner’s intention and the fact that they deal drugs and/or have an illegal gun in their possession.
Be brave and report this criminal to the authorities.
Become angry and take back the streets and neighbourhoods. Make them safe again.
It is you who will turn the tide against gun violence.
Staying /hiding in your home, pointing the finger of blame, and praying that it will stop does not work. It is time to stand as proud St.Lucians and fight against these gangsters.
Make a difference or you will lose your livelihoods, as tourism …and your economy …will
turn away from you.
May the word of God be continuing,say it is aloud, preach the word,it gives 🐍 the devil headache,and it is hard to beleived.
In the beginning was the word,and the word was with God,and the word becomes flesh (Jesus)
Hear this Concern :
If you stumble in a safe country 🇱🇨 St Lucia,how will you manage to cross the thickets by the Jordan ?
When the Roll will call up yonder and the (SAVED),I said SAVED, but not christians,of the earth will gather over on the other side, where will you be ????
For those who rejected God and his word, for there is no need to struggle to make oneself a rich…
This is God’s plan for all who abandone the Spring of the living water, Wherever you may,he will send you,to your homeland bear handed, your hands in your lap, full of sicknesses and dieases, have no rest for the soul,and there you will die..
Message from Jerimiah the prophet of GOD ❗
