Football / Re: What is professional football?
« on: June 04, 2009, 02:16:36 PM »
First things first, they can get many more people to attend the matches simply- by just having regularly in the newspapers the match dates, times, prices of tickets and how to get them. Do they expect me to take the trip down to the stadium to be told how much the match costs at the entrance? That's a lack of respect, simular to some supermarkets in Trinidad not putting the price on many items- you're just supposed to accept it and give up your hard earned money without question(who are you anyway?).

I'm telling you, up to this day I've NEVER seen ANYWHERE, not on the TTpro league website, nor in any ads, a clear presentation of the things I've mentioned, and I'm a person who actually actively looks for it. I seriously don't know how they expect ANYONE to attend, except the players' and staff's families. If I can't get clear info on these things, and I search them out, how the hell are the people who might have an interest in attending if they come across that info ever supposed to get it. I'm telling you, this league has the most pathetic marketing I've seen. All the ads and public relations suck and are very unclear and uninformative, besides building no excitement in the public. They should put me in charge of marketing or at least follow some of my recommendations, I guarantee attendance would at least double after 1 week, even with the substandard level of play overall.

With the lack of informative marketing, they probably deserve to have no one attending those games(besides family who get direct info and tickets) . That might sound harsh, but in general I'm fed up with how relevant information isn't presented clearly to the public in this country. It's like you're supposed to know everything intuitively. It's part of the culture, together with haphazardness. We have to break that.

He could consensually bone everybody in here sister and probably moms at the drop of a hat, and he is bulling some very hot women. So what if he has crossed the metro sexual line and into extremely gay fashion sense(I'm metro and have absolutely no prob with his tight clothes, i'll wear that, only the flower is crossing the line for me). He who laughs last laughs best.

He isn't called the Portuguese man-o'-sex for nothing. btw Juliano Belleti's sister is hot.

ah wish somebody would shoot this assclown and shut him once and for all.
he doing nothing but making the problem worse


Very true. He tries to cause racial division in this country in every possible way he can think of and at every turn. The thing he needs to realize though, is that most people don't give a crap about what he has to say, even though he thinks he's some great revolutionary speaker. Really I feel very sorry for him.

This story has actually made me put aside the rivalry between us and the states in football, and I now love Oguchi Onyewu ,lol. This is a tremendous stand, and you are exemplary Onyewu, when so many others gloss over racism in european football. I'm rooting for you loudly in this. **MASSIVE BIG UPS to Onyewu!!!!**

That real sad.  Many African countries have so much pain in their life that they take the game to the extreme. So does drink, smoke dope or beat dey wife. But by the way, they alone are not "guilty" of this. That does happen in South American and some Asain countries. But that was the height of dotish-ness. But look at the other side. Look how many great players they have produced. Them people hungry.

I agree deeks.

For every jackass that come out of the school system with a twisted mind, it have at least fifty more that came out with an ambition or a goal in life to do better. For every idiot you see making a spectacle of themself on tv blaming other peoples for their woes, it have a hundred more watching the telly and thinking "that blasted jackass need a cutarse, or a job, or both.

Perhaps social services are not as great as they could be but the overall system that people are carping about WORKED for a great many of us. And I for one am such a staunch supporter of the education system in T&T that I have purposely chosen to send the kiddies back to T&T for school rather than let them go here in the US.

The system works if you have people willing to make it work. If there are parents or a parent or a grandparent or a tanty or a nenen, somebody willing to work with you. And I am sure that even in Lavantille or any of the impoverished neighbourhoods in T&T right now somewhere there is a little girl or little boy sitting down to homework because they know that is their ticket to the world. SO if they could do it, what wrong with the rest of the area?

Oh wait.. they too busy blaming everyone else for their own shortcomings.

Jeez Verycute, I wanted to to just keep this short and simple and not to be lured into posting anything long for hopefully some weeks or more,.. but you've left me no choice....

Yes, even in the worst of systems(not saying ours is the worst) there's always people who excel through their own personal drive, and through the good elements in the system, but does that excuse all the shortcomings, and should we accept sub par systems for fear of offending? No. Also, recently the system has gotten much worse than it was before. In my opinion our tertiary education system is generally good, but that can't be said for the secondary school and primary school system. Of course there are some good schools(a few) and many good and caring teachers dispersed throughout the system, but that doesn't excuse the absolute lack of diligent regulating and rule enforcing that allows many people with deep personal issues, abusive and negligent tendencies who are teachers to teach totally vulnerable children unchecked and be in charge of  children for most of the day and have them at their mercy.  I believe that the education ministry has done a good job in the LAYOUT of the education system(again,I'm talking about primary and secondary schools)- the textbooks the have chosen are very good, the curriculum IF taught will give children very well rounded knowledge, the rules and regulations they've set are good, free textbooks program is excellent,etc) The Education ministry is doing a decent job, but their problem, like the rest of the government, lies with their inability or disregard for diligent enforcement of they own regulations in the monitoring of schools and teachers. I believe in striving for perfection in everything, or at least excellence and striving to at least be as good as the best in the world in some particular aspect. Compared to other countries, our school curriculum is good, but in many other aspects we are very sub par,e.g.- the way that many many teachers interact with and treat children is atrocious. (particularly primary school)

Do you think that children should be beaten if they get a maths sum or some other work wrong? Should they if they don't have some stationary- is that their fault? It's proven that at a young age children should be allowed to express themselves freely to enable their proper development.The opposite of that happens here.( I know everyone will think I'm bashing T&T and disagree vehemently with me but I doh care, the fact is that generally people in T&T can't smoothly verbally articulate their thoughts and express themselves) Should teachers regularly not go to work and when they do barely teach anything.(many teachers do this in secondary schools around the nation) In primary school, where children are introduced to education and form their views on it- the view most get at best is that education and school is a necessary chore, and not a love for and excitement in acquiring knowledge, that will lead them to lifelong learning. The Ministry's text books are very good(speaking about primary school now), they have many interactive and practical activities for teachers to do with students, that the children will enjoy and take interest and learn at the same time, but teachers by and large don't do them, probably because it's too much of a bother, and they think true education and being intelligent is just sitting in a classroom with pen and paper,

The social services- they're almost nonexistent, perhaps you've never been in a situation where you needed them personally or for someone else. Of course there are people in the system who try and I really appreciate them, but that doesn't excuse the failure of the system as a whole.

Of course there are many many factors outside school that determine the course of someone's life and the type of person they'll develop into, but schooling plays a significant role. The fact is that in their formative years most children spend much more time with their teachers than with their parents-especially nowadays. Therefore teachers have a tremendous impact on not only the children's education, but their mental development overall, so significant care must took to ensure that the impact teachers leave is overall positive-once again, this can be done by diligently enforcing a set of guidelines for all teachers and schools to operate under, because as you alluded to, many people have turned out good from the system, but it can't be hit and miss and only those who have the good fortune of ending up in a bright spot get through well.

 Even if you go on to have success in life- bad experiences in your formative years at school-as at home, can still have many detrimental impacts on your mind and character- and most do not realize them, much more determine the source. I've experienced for the most part the positives of the system. I've by and large had the fortune to end up in mostly the bright spots of our education system, but I know many people who haven't and their negatives experiences as a child has really affected them(e.g. being called stupid and badly beaten for every twitch, everyday by a teacher, who it was eventually found out was being severely abused by her husband), but just like any other negative experience in life that affects determined and strong people, they fight it and walk on and are doing alright. Does that say the negatives are any less bad? No. (I'm not even talking about the people who's lives are in ruins, for many many reasons, but their experiences in school are but one of the many reasons that assisted in it, or in the least they didn't present themselves as they should, as a path that looks much different from the terrible abusiveness they were accustomed to, a reasonable, stimulating and enjoyable culture that they want to be a part of, so that the less personally-driven children who're in hardship could see school as where they want to be)

I also know a retired teacher, who taught primary school all her life, and only realized the detrimental impacts of how she and many many other primary school teachers interact with children(i.e. like unreasonable beasts), only when she had a few months left before she retired from over 25yrs teaching, it haunts her what the trauma and potential scarring she's left on some children's minds. Overall, in our primary and sec. school system there are many positives( some very good schools and very good hardworking, admirable and caring teachers.), that results in the success of many, but that doesn't mean you should overlook the negatives(even if we never experienced them ourselves) and the less than stellar schools and behaviour of many teachers. The ministry's layout of the system is decent, so they have a good base, they just have to set clear guidelines that teachers and schools MUST ALL operate under, and diligently enforce them.

I'm not excusing individuals taking account for themselves at all, in fact I'm very annoyed at people who just blame others for their failures, instead of taking accountability for themselves and saying they'll achieve no matter what. If everyone does that and all achieve success, does that excuse the negatives in the system and mean they have no lasting bad impact on their minds and lives(even though they've achieved success), and that we shouldn't tackle the terrible issues? No is doesn't.

 Many things are responsible for the type of persons that have Trinidad in this mess,but the thing is that children are at school more than anywhere else and under the influence of their teachers more than anyone else in their formative years(speaking about primary school again- that's where most of my qualms lie), so therefore specifically primary school is a large determinant of the type of individual a child develops into together with their parents, and arguably more nowadays, as many many parents don't strongly guide their children on the correct course for life, and some try their best, but barely ever see their children because of work very long and conflicting work schedules that mean they hardly see their children, so if they are impacted terribly negatively during the day, they don't have enough time to reverse any negative impact.

This isn't even counting the extremely high number of physical(caused plenty times by pent up frustration from our pressurized society) and sexual abuse children endure from parents and other close individuals in this country, because of the none existent social services has allowed it to spiral out of control through the years.

As my retired teacher friend found out, teachers(particularly in early childhood and primary school) and schools have a TREMENDOUS important job-in reality, they're shaping lives, and the choices they make will greatly assist in shaping the lives of the children either positively or negatively. I greatly support these teachers getting the highest salaries reasonably possible because of the importance, responsibilities and pressures of their job, but in exchange, I also expect them to get intense training on how to ideally deal with, influence and manage children for their best, healthy and happy development, how to teach as to develop love for knowledge and learning. Also, how to manage stress, and they should have counselors ready available to them if they're undergoing problems and stress, to healthily let it out and deal with it. There should be more accountability, and systems of such. I remember hearing Barack Obama say something to this effect, and I totally agree with him.

There will always be problems, issues and things less than ideal, even in the best systems around the world. The thing is, that doesn't mean we should accept them, we should still work and strive for excellence and perfection(even though it's unattainable), in every aspect of every system, and don't accept anything less or be afraid to speak out for fear of offending others. I'm a realist but also an optimist, and that's how I see things.

Take care.

That's drawn and quartered deserving behaviour there. This blasted country, sadly keeps proving my horrible assertion right- that many factors [i.e. desperately poor and concentration camp like school system(particularly primary school- the formative years, our tertiary education system is good though), social services(lack thereof),it being very hard to barely eat and survive for most people, etc etc],  have converged here to form a toxic climate that efficiently creates an abnormally high per capita rate of monsters and people with varying levels of mental illness.

ALso, don't diss the people for wanting to have a look over the overpass and for admiring it abit, is OUR blasted tax and oil money pay for that, tha is WE own n THEM own too, and it's the first in trinidad like it, so I could understand peoples' amusement. Never see come see is usually for things that are more or less common somewhere, but people act like they never saw it before. Yeah, in reality is just another overpass, nothing special, but in this shitty country, I'm happy to see a rare something that makes people feeling a little more uplifted and cheerful and positive(even if it seem a little nonsensical, whaeva), and I find nobody should try to take that away from them and make them feel small for it. Yeah, I know you were just joking, it was funny too though lol, but what I said still stands though.

Football / Re: Dwight Yorke warns Tevez and Ronaldo
« on: May 13, 2009, 12:19:14 AM »
I seeing men using this as a opportunity to bad mouth Dwight and thing, all yuh have to sit up and look at the amazingly bright side- that in this small and in many cases backwater nation, we have a man who is hailed as a legend and that has contributed n is part of the amazing success and story of arguably the biggest and most succesful club in the world now.His opinions and comments and are trumpeted and held in high regard and respected by football media the world over. He can comment with authority on the biggest football issues and players,and he isn't viewed as some smallman, but it makes headlines. Seriously, that's what I though of as I read this story, it reminded me of the amazing success Dwight has achieved against all odds, and gaining worldwide recognition, it made me feel proud and roused some patriotism in me to see someone from T&T held in such high regard and having been recognised one of the top in his profession, not in the caribbean, or even americas, but in the WORLD. Who else from T&T can we say that about?? Thank you Dwight.

Instead of discussing the blasted topic, the only thing people could do is to pull any recent negatives they can think of about Dwight and throw it in his face, men even bring in Stern into this. When I see that, I know a certain person was due to arrive, and surely,  Berris come and put allyuh in allyuh place about that one, lol. Seriously, I think the man has learnt his lesson, no need to continue to rub the penalty miss in his face, simply, that won't do him or the team any good.

ALso, I agree with Dwight's comments on Tevez n Ron. Tevez is being treated like shit, but his situation is complicated, but I really sympathize with him and wish whatever's best for his career n happiness is what happens.

On Ronaldo, he will regret it to the end of his career if he leaves ManU and goes to that cursed club in Madrid. His development will stagnate, or possibly regress, he'll win almost nothing, and his wish to be the greatest player ever will be a terrible joke, I think it'll be like how it is when he's playing for portugal- hopeless, he's the type of player that needs top players around him to shine, and a team that's gelled and oiled, which won't happen at Madrid as they change managers like drauws. I can see him developing into the greatest ever at united, based on the pace he's going at and his amazing developments already and his amazing accomplishments already, but I don't think he's seeing this situation clearly for what it is, and he won't stay much longer, he's delusional, and he'll regret it when his career is over and he looks back with 2020 hindsight, and sees that he could he was steadily on course to become the greatest player ever, because of numerous things at United makes it the perfect atmosphere to foster his rapid development as has been shown so far, but couldn't he see it and ruined it for himself, so he's simply remembered as an exceptionally good player- like numerous others, n that's it. I really hope he proves me wrong, cause my football appetite wants to see the impossibly good(and he's crazy good already at 24, definitely the best in the world,yes messi is better at dribbling, but he's better at everything else, and can do many things messi can't full stop) footballer he'll be with 2-3 more years developing at his present rate at united, that'll be a sight to see.

 >:( Friggin DISGUSTING this #$%^$$ country !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Shit does happen everywhere in the world, but it seems to be happening on a regular basis and damn boldly and fearlessly in this country!!

Thing is I now finished posting a message( I'll post it here) about the solution for murders in the thread on Wilson Palacios' brother, then I come into the main forum and meet this!!! If I was in charge these people would be so fearful to kill, they won't think twice about killing someone for such a disgustingly trivial reason as jealousy!



Totally agree with davidephraim, if people know that if you murder another man, that there's an efficient policing and justice system, and that you'll be caught and hung in at most a few months- any nation that implements this together with organising to ensuring a high quality of life for all it's citizens, murder rates in that nation WILL plummet(there's no ifs, buts or maybes about that). A good example of this is Japan, their murder rate is among the bottom three in the world!! Yes, the USA has the death penalty, but many states have cut it, and those that do have it DO NOT carry out the death sentences in a timely manner, and almost does not execute anyone that is on death row,among other things, which is in contrast to the Japan, where throughout the whole country, anyone who murders is executed in a timely manner.

In 2004 Japan only had 1100 murders, that's in a population of 127.3 MILLION people!!! They had twice the number of murders we had last year in 2008, with with about 126 TIMES(!!!!) more people than us! What's going on here and in other parts of this world is atrocious.
edit: I've learnt that Japan's murder figures has plenty controversy regarding their validity and other factors, but whatever, it's still one of the lowest in the world regardless, and I know what I outlined will work, *steups*.

If the US politicians really cared about the thousands and thousands of innocent human life that is snuffed out every year, they can reduce the number of murders to a minute fraction, much easier than almost all countries on earth- they just have to efficiently execute the murders(and end all the legal loopholes) that they seem very able to efficiently catch already. Kill the murders, and the innocents will live, don't and people have barely any inhibiting factor to sto them taking another human's life if they enough hate is built up in them. It's as simple as that. People who say stop the death penalty simply care more for the individuals who murder innocent people, and in the process put holes through the hearts of their families and loved ones, they seem to care more for the feelings and well being of those who had no concern for such when they snuffed out the life of another man.

To stop our murders in Trinidad is comparably a job that requires MUCH more work than the US, because unlike them, our police and judicial system is in shambles, but with dedication and hard, good and intelligent work, we can. At least we have the death penalty in place though, that's a good start...*sigh*

COSIGN!! You've stated my words there sub, mediocrity and haphazardness is the name of the game here. Simply, Corneal and others doing shit and getting away with it & too cowardly to admit their errors- imagine they blaming the kids now!! That's just friggin low.

 I like Terry Fenwick even more now. He isn't a timid Trini, and isn't accustomed to all the sh*t that goes on here, so he must speak strongly against it. Too bad we don't have much trini people who can do that, a man have to come from the UK to call out crap that goes on here, and the thing is that trini people so accustomed to and accepting of mediocrity, timidity and shit that they'll want to hold him to fault for this, just like they did to Wim(not like he gave a sh*t anyway, he was probably relieved to get out of this backwater, crapped up-place, just like Beenhackker). This blasted country, it does look hopeless sometimes. We need some more damn honest straight talk like this.

Discretion is the better part of valor... or as another saying puts it, is not what you say but how you say it.  By running to the press and being so harshly critical  of the TTFF (he might mention Anton Corneal, but is de TTFF who really getting implicated) all he's doing is ensuring continued bad blood between him and Jack.  Not saying he must mince words or kiss ass, but sometimes in order to do business yuh must shake hands with the devil.  Yuh could make ah settah noise in de press or yuh could pursue matters more discretely behind the scenes.  The fact that he and Lasana is pals and Lasana have axe to grind against Jack/the TTFF only makes it seem as though this is some kinda vendetta that Fenwick pursuing against the TTFF.  Not saying that's the case, but the appearance is there

All dat time spent in Trinidad and he still ent learn how to play dead tuh ketch cobo alive...

True Bake n Shark, diplomacy is good, and I'm a advocate for it and the vast majority of the times it's the best option, but I find sometimes there's a need for an injection of unmannerly n honest straight talk that offends people.I think TnT football needs some of that, and also T&T as a whole, cause plenty people here rel delusional and accepting of mediocrity, haphazardness,etc. The truth hurts and offends most times.

That is why he is not liked in T&T. He speaks about mediocrity and excuse making and the cockroaches gone running and hiding only to regroup later and bad talk him. I will bet anything that people like Coops and his ilk will find the man talking shit. In T&T excellence is hardly ever rewarded but mediocrity is king. All hail king Corneal, Maturana, prince Mc comie and Emperor Jack.

At what point does the flag become a driving hazzard. From the angle of the video could not tell how close to the road. Some strong rain and wind could potentially rip a flag to shreds onto a unsupecting motorist, hopefully if the weather is bad enough to do that no one is crazy enough to be on the road.

I don't think the flag is a permanent fixture..it may just have been a little flare for the opening ceremony..From the pictures in the newspaper the flag appears to be flying from the extended arm of a crane attached to a truck. So I guess when they need their crane/ truck back they will ditch the flag. Maybe they could give it to Jack Warner to use in our matches instead of that handkerchief them little boys does be walking  out with.

i doh mind d flag...it hav a big ass flag too in macoya by d centre of excellence dey does light up in d nite too..does geh meh ah sense ah national pride..

cosign.Totally agree with you there mukumsplau, I like the flag, it really does instill national pride to see it flying by new significant infrastructure to help the people, or just to see it at all(especially the big one lol). ey, when was d last time alyuh hear bout ah flag ripping down in normal weather?? I think they could find a nice safe spot there and erect a big one(edit: ok,.., that sounded wrong), instill a little awareness of national pride and unity.

what should they do with the little girl ? sense is she put out the hit .

It is apparent to me that trinidad is becoming infested with sociopaths ! thats a mental problem when you have no conscience about killing . Kids should be monitored and sick once should be kept track off  ,and given meds .


what causing this mental disorder that wrecking the old country...is it the water ..old lead pipes ,happens a lots in our poorer areas ?

RIP little guy .

You very right Quagmire, Trinidad has an extremely high per capita amount of people with different levels of mental illness.

The cause is mainly abuse at home coupled with abuse at school resulting in a lack of desire and intense dislike for education.

The education system, particularly early childhood and primary, are very abusive and stifle children's natural verbal expressiveness and it's very repressive and instills fear in them, that along with many other ills in society builds hate in them.

To be brief the abuse at home is largely because of how pressurized most people are in this country, people work hard but can hardly afford basic food and amenities, and have to live in slum-like communities. Being under constant pressure significantly contributes to the widespread mental illness and subsequent abuse of their own children out of frustration, and all the conflict in these children's heads, whose minds are not supposed to have to deal with all these issues and intense pressure at home and at school(the place that is supposed to be an escape, but is even more ruled by fear) aids in these children becoming jaded and numb.(Will eventually lead to them having a level of mental illness too)

All the right combinations and ingredients have come together in this country, and the result is that Trinidad is simply an effieciently breeding ground for mentally ill people, psychopaths and criminals.

There's tons of other issues to add to this equation, but that's all I can or want to think of now. I've done plenty pondering on this. I sometimes imagine gathering together different experts on these topics and writing an all encompassing grand report on this country, it's problems and underlying issues, their causes and underlying causes, the history that created them and allowed them to fester, and an all-encompassing master plan on how to solve the problems. That would be nice, because I've said this a long time ago, and I've recently heard other people start saying it too, and that is that EVERY system, sector and service in this country needs to be closely looked at and studied and reworked, in order to fix our problems. Every system has the trademark T&T stamp of haphazard on them. There will always be problems and things less than ideal in countries, even when you look at some of the best countries in the world to live- Japan, Iceland, Denmark, etc, they still have their fair share of problems, but I can tell you one thing- it a damn lot less than we have over here.

Fail to plan and you've planned to fail, and they've planned exhaustively and extensively, and implemented.

These friggin basement dwellers want yuh to accept they buggery and if yuh doh accept it they want to chastize yuh . ::) ::) ::)Go away with alyuh buggery far far away.

friggin cosigh zuluwarrior!!!! It's getting friggin ridiculous, how suddenly sodomy is supposed to be accepted like if it's as natural as the heterosexuality that allows human beings to reproduce and go on! It's ridiculous and disgusting. I won't accept that nonsense. I accept that people have complex issues with their sexuality they need to resolve, namely homosexuality, along with other things, but don't try to tell me it should be accepted and acted out, and not sorted out with a psycologist.

Kudos to Miss California, you looked absolutly lovely, and gave and excellent and very true answer, but too bad so many millions in America are ignorant about the truth on this topic,are unwilling or unable to put deeper though into it, are lying to themselves, or in denial.

chill out...what de hell is normal?

And cause you eh like bullin dat doh make it some sort of crime, nor does it make de bullers and dem sick!

There is so much education out there that shows the cause is very most likely genetic.  yet you spout so many ignorant millions in America!

stop the nonsense, leave de people and stop de hate.

dat said I feel marriage is fuh man and woman alone.



Ok, I know that was a bit abrasive, and also I don't hate homosexuals at all, in fact I know a few and I'm cool and friendly with them, even though they're openly gay, but that doesn't mean I agree with their lifestyle. The reason I was so harsh was because it just got me extremely angry that Perez asked her such a polarising question, and because she answers it in the way that infact most people worldwide feel, she's vilified for it.

Yeah, there's scientific research saying that it probably is genetic, but like most scientific studies, there are opposing views in the same scientific community. The entire media and a great amount of the scientific community has jumped on the Global Warming bandwagon, but there are still many very reputable scientists around the World who disagree with that theory. In the end all humans have free will, but this accepting homosexuality as something that should be lived out in public if those feelings come upon you is something new. If we can just introduce that into the list of things we accept as natural human lifestyle even as it's not been seen as such throughout most of history, what else can we introduce into our circle of accepted behavior that was previously seen as deviant. I can think of plenty arguments you can say against this, but that's my view. That's the path the world is going down, and a very dangerous one.


I got very angry to see Perez flauting his misguided beliefs and trying to tell the peope who have the historically accepted views on human sexuality and relationships that they should shut up and everyone gets behind him- the World has gone blasted MAD.

Facts also show that the rate of drug use is abnormally high in the homosexual community. Also, a very high percentage of people who turn homosexual were molested or sexually abused, or viceversa. Do you think that's a coincidence? Many people dismiss this, but I don't, I don't trust anyone in this world, noone, I think things through for myself and question science and accepted views, because there are so many agendas that sometimes fuels many scientific and medical things other than pure unbiased science and genuinely wanting the best for others- eg. Money. Sexual puts so much confusion in one's mind, that is part of the reason people turn into homosexuals, among MANY other variables. I understand that I have the much less politically correct view on the subject, but you too must look at the other side of homosexuality, that the very untrustworthy big media(CNN, etc) don't show you. Most homosexuals are not at peace with themselves, and constantly second guessing themselves and their life, which leads to depression and the drug use I mentioned above. Why? If everyone continues to encourage this homosexual lifestyle, it will be the end of man, as we won't replenish ourselves because too many people will be homosexual, I can already see the first nation that will go down because of this will be the US. That's because as I said, it is not natural for a human being to be in an emotional relationship that is with the same sex, and doesn't allow procreation.  Do some research on this topic that will never be shown in the main media.

Even though I disagree with the views on homosexuality the media is trying to kick down our throats, that doesn't mean I in any way dislike or much more hate homosexuals- the persons. I simply disagree with the largely held view in political-correctness gripped America. I totally understand that homosexual feelings can come upon many many people, and some stronger feelings than others, but I don't believe that one should just accept that those urges are natural and healthy. These feelings fueled by a great deal of very underexamined issues, a big one is childhood sexual abuse. I understand how strong these urges can be, so to be honest don't really have an argument with homosexuals in relationships and living together, because the homosexual feelings may be too strong to hold out, if they understand that  that lifestyle is not natural and healthy, and they are getting counselling. I totally disagree with them flauting in public homosexual parades and such like homosexuality should be accepted and applauded as healthy behaviour for humanbeings. Yeah yeah, I know my view are extremely politically incorrect and very against the views that the media in "The Greatest Nation on Earth" is trying to push, but I don't care one bit, I think independently and compare all inforation, news and facts with opposing views and research, then I inject my own reasoning and logic into it,I trust no one and questions everything, then mix them together and form my opinions. I don't care one bit about what the most visibly supported views are in the US. I'm always open to more knowledge, arguments and info though, from all sides.

This is not hate speech, it's love speech,as I won't accept and support homoexuality as it's simply not a healthy lifestyle physically and psychologically. All the homosexuals I know are very depressed people, one guy lived a very depressed and tragic life, and had an equaly tragic death, another friend is taking hormones to grow breasts, and is in serious psycological turmoil and I fear for him. In the same way I'll never accept girls doing porn as it's getting accepted today, because no matter how vehemently they deny it, the clear evidence is there to see that it's unhealthy for them physically and phschologically- just like the lifelong homosexual lifestyle. This is not hate speech, this is love speech.

While acknowledging his nephew’s misdeeds, the uncle, however, claimed Kevon used to sell marijuana and part of the proceeds went to particular police officers attached to the Western Division. “He was in racket but not by himself...He was in it with some police,” the man said. “He tell me somebody get pay to kill him and he going down shooting.”

This is the part that I find disturbing and needs to be addressed. >:(

Trinidad disgusts me, plain and simple, I not feeling like going into some long elaboration now.
