The UN says at least 356 people, including 257 civilians, have been killed since 7 May in eastern Ukraine.

Mmm yeah, that tends to happen when a country (Ukraine - with the backing of the US) continues to bomb and shell what's supposedly their own people.

Bigger problem here is how two young boys end up glorifying and pursuing this lifestyle, mommy working many hours and not home, who are the role models in the family and community at large.  Arguing that police were justified for shooting them as they possessed weapons and shot at police completely ignores the bigger issues at hand namely the complete breakdown in the family structure and surrounding community.



My mother was just telling me - she knows Hakeem's uncle - that his father used to try with him and was taking him to work with him n ting. And apparently one of the boys had been expelled from school. The other one father, when he heard his son wasn't in school was just going up the road to beat him. So it sounds like what a neighbour said in the article about the parents talking to them and trying with them was true. Hakeem, his father would take him to work with him but he used to want to leave and go so they could terrorise people, beat people, rob them. That was their M.O. and they clearly made their choice.

If true, then he looks like a fine, upstanding member of the community.  A really good boy.  Unbelievable that such a wholesome young man could come to such a terrible end.



Sarcasm, right?

I believe the police.

Police does know who dey killing.

Nah Toppa... I can't agree with that.  If they guilty then put them on trial and show yuh evidence, no civilized society should be tolerating summary executions as reportedly was done here.

I know, and I agree. But these bad-boys should understand that Trinidad police will kill them no questions asked. A 15 and 16 year old supposed to be beating dey books, not involved in crime (as reported). But I think residents should pull out their smart phone (everybody have one) and record if the police really getting on like that. Let them be brought to justice - although I can sympathise with the police going into those areas and putting their lives on the line.

The mother's account is heart-breaking, but parents does know they children involved in crime and tacitly (or overtly) condone it.

How you know that's the truth, Socapro?

The Express gives an account from the relatives of the boys and the Guardian gives an account from the residents who say the boys were involved in badness. It also lists the charges they were wanted on - attempted murder, sexual assault, robbery, etc.

If you piece the two articles together the picture it paints is that the boys were fleeing some other bad-boys, there was shooting, police responded to the scene and were shot at. They then shot two of the boys. Whether it was during the fire-fight (police returning fire as they said) or whether they apprehended them and then shot them is in dispute. I think it is possible that the police apprehended them and then shot them. But I also do not believe the boys were innocent "Carifta stars" like you are portraying.

the victim has already identified the boys as the ones shooting behind him

Which victim is that? The one the boys almost killed (allegedly, of course) in the Guardian article?

Because Trinidad police not going and fight up with all of that. From all accounts the youths were not just "Carifta stars" but they were involved in badness and were wanted on some serious charges. To top it off they shot at the police.

Trinidad police not going through alla dat. I'm not saying it's right, but that's reality.

Altidore score 2.
The USA is going to win the world cup.

It was interesting listen to the pre-match show - I didn't catch the beginning but from what I heard they were discussing the "writing off" of the US team by saying they had no chance of winning the tournament. And I thought, how many teams really go into the WC expecting to win it (except England)? Why should it matter whether the US had a chance or not? Teams just go to play and do their very best and that should be enough.

Why they not calling for the boys to be suspended too? The girls didn't get pregnant by themselves. And that taxi-driver should be arrested. The more things change the more they stay the same.
