Two murders in South Trinidad in the early hours of Saturday morning pushed the murder count to an unofficial 401 for 2008. Sadly, the dubious record is almost certainly to be added to.
Even sadder, 88% of those murders remain 'undetected'; an astonishing statistic!
The excuses ring hollower than ever, and no longer do we buy any of them... not that you can afford to buy anything in a nation where inflation rates are almost comical.
The Government has failed us! It has failed us not only because of incompetence, but moreso because of selfishness.
That the Prime Minister persists with entrusting Minister Martin Joseph to chart a course and steer us out of this morass reveals him to be a pitifully and dangerously self-absorbed individual.
The Prime Minister would rather have this country citizens sink hundreds at a time into 6 feet holes of earth than admit failure. It is more important that he not accept he has got it wrong than to try to do what is right.
Fix me first my fucking ass, Mr Manning; go fix yuh fucking self.
