Don’t hold uour breath thinking that at long last the authorities are understanding that gunslingers must not be granted bail as the nation grapples with a senseless escalation of gu.ñn crimes! Just now some failure on the part of the authorities will emerge –whether in the Courts or in the Cabinet –and we’ll see “Toys” and all gunslingers granted bail! We are trapped in a cycle of gun violence –and the authorities are not wise enough to understand how to put
a serious dent in the problem –let alone solve it!
You are right Truth Be…..the authorities are NOT smart enough to do anything about this surge!
Where did Toys get the gun and ammunition from ?? I know him. I also know of his family members in the DIASPORA all too well. There is a booming underground market quick cash for guns and ammunition here in St Lucia, and the players are not poor ghetto youths. The primitive mindsets are still stuck in the pre 1979 time Capsule, and is using this as their standard barrier of measurement for peaceful once upon a time Day-O tranquility Caribbean Lifestyle; they refused to accept the notion that St Lucia has evolved. Today’s youth are not clones of yesteryear, their prolific school of thought are rebellious and everything beyond 1990 is prehistoric. The gangsters gunslingers are plenty full these days, thanks to the youths of migrative citizens who mimic and deem this as the new wave culture of dealing with their perceived enemies.Th
Another cockroach, you never know how many people Toys have killed give him 20 years . Even women are involve with fire arms to as well
