    Same old turf wars.

    Hospital is worthless – certainly not the place to go with severe or life threating injuries!

    Police are worthless. Chief of Police, even more so!

    Prosecutors are worthless.

    Governor, and Deputy Governor are worthless.

    Elected members are worthless.

    General lack of law and order continues …… nothing ever changes (for the better) and we the people continue to fail in holding those elected accountable to better our society and the basic rules of law.

    Worthless? People like you live in Lala Land – thinking somehow doctors and nurses can heal/revive the dead. Somehow you all think you can be sick for months, treating yourself based on a quick Google search and home remedies, and when you are close to being dead then seek medical attention and all will be well.

    You all expect Police to solve crimes with no help from the community (eyewitnesses). No CCTV, no local Forensic testing, and limited resources.

    These people are magicians. Healthcare and Policing are evidence-based professions. Interpret that how you want.

    so you observed that , cocaine has turned the country into the killing fields and all the wigged one can think of is spewing out his usual blogging of hatred and evilness on the governor / the commissioner and UK to create distractions while the brutal execution style killing continues all around us, but he won talk about that / just like when the video was released ( on the fish bay cold blooded execution style murder ) so the people can see for themselves the real truth of what is really going on in the country / the outcry wasn’t against the killing / it was at the same commissioner , and it was said he was trying to make the country look bad / so he is as guilty as those person or persons
    who is pulling the trigger / but everything in the darkness will come
    to light / and we will all see who is who and where they fits in , into the equation ( he has to have a hidden agenda *the 3rd district representative may have learnt a lesson about that hypocrite , who is now jumping in on the horse track fiasco , just to be in the spotlight ( tphats a dangerous nerd

    No End.
    You are missing the truly worthless person.
    The one that pulled the trigger.
    And there are other worthless people.
    The ones that know who but won’t say.
    The others are just doing what they can with the resources and informtion they have, but they are not the ones using bullets.

    All the gunmen is going to take each other out 1 by 1.
