Another Black Youth Bites The Dust At The Hands Of The .......?
The first picture shows what Mario Deane looked like after being changed for a ganja spliff and being locked up in the Barnett Street lock up in Montego Bay and the second one shows how he looked prior to that..
Many persons overseas especially, complained that Jamaicans are an homophobic country and persons who are gays are abused in Jamaica.. The fact is, it is a way of life for young men generally to be abused by those who are to serve and protect.
The question is are we going to allow this to continue? The Prime Minister declares regularly that she loves poor people yet she has not said a word about this matter. Is she working, working, working and is she working to see that there is justice for this poor Jamaican youth?
The latest news is that two other prisons have been charged for beating Mario. The sad joke is that it has been reported that the two men who have been accused have, had psychological problems and it is possible they will not be able to defend themselves properly in court.
News just emerging also is that one of the accused have been given a severe beating. One wonders if these two accused will live to have their day in court. Help to save these young men lives by passing this blog on to at lease twenty persons. I believe that these men are going to lose their lives in prison. Their relatives are very poor and they cannot even afford the services of a lawyer.
The only day we will see real change in this country is if the Minister of Security, The Minister of Justice and the Acting Commissioner is required to resigned.
We need to have a national identification system and used persons ID number to issue tickets for petty offences rather than locking these persons up. It was reported about another case of a man who was looked up for over two months for a petty crime without being brought before court. The man case was dismissed.

Min. Peter Bunting - Time To Act
Min. Peter Bunting should step aside.
Too many Jamaicans have lost their lives at the hands of criminals and also at the hands of the security forces under questionable circumstances.
Persons Must Be Held Accountable
Persons at very high levels in the society must now be held accountable. The recent killing of a fellow Jamaican in police custody in Montego Bay is a serious matter. It is clear that the state cannot ensure the safety of those who are in its custody.
The time has come for a strong message to be sent to all that this must stop. I therefore call on the Minister of National Security and also the Acting Commissioner of Police to be relieved of their positions.
This will reinforce at the political level and the administrative arm of government that we will no longer tolerate this situation.
Nine Day Wonder Philosophy
If these persons are allowed to continue then the philosophy of the 'nine day wonder' and 'a nutten', will continue to be a part of our thinking. Those who are entrusted to public office will feel that anything can happen under their watch and their jobs will still be secure.
Jamaicans Must Speak With One Voice
The people of this country now need to speak with one voice and say we have had enough and those who are in charge must 'Pack their bags and go'!!!.
