I just have one question for all who saying this and dat about boroughs!! if boroughs was alive and well in T&T today and was running the route wid the flying squad, would we have all this uncontrolable crime in the society TODAY ??!! and fack what criminal activity he was involved in , just answer the queation!!
the burroughs example (specifically, the effect he had on lawlessness) just showin us that from the criminals' point of view, 'ordinary' policing is not a deterrent simply BECAUSE in a democracy with a semi-mature justice system, policing within the bounds of the law is a sorry waste of time.
Any sensible CoP would soon realise that in order to get the job done, yuh hadda fly
high (above de law) strike swift...the old adage -
Drastic times call for drastic measures. Inevitably, some truly innocent people go get caught up in de purge for maybe movin in de wrong circles. (Dey should know better)
F**k de party in power and take it into yuh own hands - when yuh units start to command respect and dey stop finding innocent women takin taxi to work brutally raped with dey face bash een with a big jagged rock, then yuh might even end up with a Trinity F**kin Cross!
Dem criminal and dem moving like terrorists and when (if!) dey get hold, civilian rules apply. As a killa on de hill, me eh have you to study - is
ME who go make
YOU fraid to f**kin sleep tonight and keep checkin dat yuh relatives allright every hour!
Would-be rapists, kidnappers and murderers only too aware of the combination of -
the lack of police resources,
the porous justice system
the easy availability of guns
the proliferation of police/army no-go areas
the amount of pardners dey have in de force
the reluctance of witnesses to testify
how easy it is to paralyze a community with fear
how quickly they could make lawlessness overtake de rule of law
...all because "...is Trinidad."
Should a man with balls decide to take up where Burroughs an de flyin squad left off, de situation would rapidly improve, talk done.Dem men an dem need to wake up in de mornin with the thought that it have a man who go find dem an mash dem een
brutally if dey even get ketch near drugs, guns, conspiracy to kidnap, rape, whaeva...dey need a personality to let them know that their breed cyah proliferate in a small place like T&T.
Dey hadda KNOW dat and FEAR dat. "Respect" and all ah dem ideals go come with de next generation...for now, f**k it.
