Sex
I
do not think if "your 14 year old son were to have sex with his 14
year old girlfriend" he would ever go to jail, if so be the case both
could end up in jail. In other Commonwealth jurisdictions like Canada there is
some allowance for closeness in age. In Canada the age of consent has been
raised to 16 from 14 with "close in age"
exceptions ranging from 2- 5 years older. This model makes sense
and even if our laws have not been tweaked as such a magistrate could be guided
by best practices somewhere in the commonwealth. A legal mind on your program
Mr. Derby could shed some light in this grey area.06/08/15
That Passport
British official has
given Jamaica a passing grade on its treatment of British nationals
incarcerated here. You don't
understand it, if you are a prisoner from one powerful country that we beg from
regularly they handle you with gloves so what you expect. They visit their
countrymen in prison and also watch their cases in court making sure that they
are getting justice. Who wouldn't want a British or USA passport and soon
Cuban? You nuh get it, if you go prison a foreign you deh pon you own so hear
this “leave crime alone.” 06/06/15
Loto Money
The newspapers just
featured a man winning Super Lotto of $117.9 million the first thing he should
do is check out a financial advisor to help him build it up before he
start spend and give away. Investment is the thing so that you can earn from
the money and still have the money. That money can blow out easy and fast.
One decent house even if you build on your own land $50 million, one
Benz or say land Cruiser another 10-15 million family giveaways 10 million you
nuh see it easy fi done in less than a week. I would just buy a good 4door pick
up fix up my house clear up debts and all family who close buy them a ticket to
where they can go college, university or vacation local or foreign or if
they want the money. After that invest, invest, invest, argument done.06/06/15
Food
Many packaged foods
some name brands are as good as poison just that we don't know but the
least you can do is read the ingredients. Keep close to your local fresh
produce you are a little safer because you can't forget insecticide residues.
Buy good local foods eat good live strong.06/06/15
Traffic TIckets
I am not saying no to
traffic fines but check to see the percentage of uncollected fines out
there. That is why there was an amnesty and still if I can recall only a
small percentage was collected overall. Now if you could not collect $500 what
chances you now have of collecting $5000 dollars we must to think and be realistic.Higher
fines bring more corruption as the incentive to be corrupt is
significantly higher especially in an economy where there is high unemployment,
high inflation, low levels of job creating employment. The "left or
write" phenomenon could be further embedded. Best way to reduce the
carnage on the roads is to strengthen education from basic school up so by the
time one needs a license the proper ways to behave on the roads either as a
pedestrian or a motorist would have been strengthened.06/06/15
Gangs
In Jamaica you have
gangs organized like any corporate business they will invest hundreds of
thousands of dollars in tools of trade that include guns which they get returns
on their investments in quick order through the enforcement of extortion on
highways, construction sites ,businesses, bus and taxi routes and now
I hear farmers etc.. They recruit enforcers and marketers even from
among graduates of high schools and university to carry out their
businesses and buy influence among a wide spectrum of public servants and
businesses. Crime is a multibillion business both from a prevention perspective
to the practitioners’ perspective. Gone are the days of the dirty “dutty”
criminal they come now in the cleanest shapes or forms male and female alike.
Why so many illegal firearms they are the tool of trade and protection for
many.30/05/15
