Police Shooting

Today's Express carries this story of the police shooting into a crowd in Mon Repos, Morvant. After killing one man and injuring a child, I can bet there will be some massive cover up. Another example of the brilliant police decisions that take place daily.

"Charles was dead by the time he reached the Port of Spain General Hospital."

Pa-trick has a grand idea of Vision 2020, to take Trinidad to First World status. Someone should tell him this also includes responsibility and that in First World countries there is accountability. Police will not shoot into an unarmed crowd. Especially when the report clearly states the police was already driving away and stopped, reversed and returned to shoot. All I can ask now is: 'what madness is this?'

"The police drove off, stopped, came out of the van and shortly after there was shooting, Hanif said."

Sometimes I wonder how God could turn he back on this small island. Ever felt like this?:
I’m telling you, things are getting out of hand. Or maybe I’m discovering that things were never in my hands.
