Cheaper by the dozen

So, despite incompetence, non-production, ineptitude, etc etc, the duncey service still insists on having WEEKLY news conferences.

Nothing wrong with that, maybe the idea behind it is to put some 'spin' on negative publicity and try to combat public disfavour.

The problem really comes to the fact that head duncey, is really really chupid beyond belief. I mean, this have to be one ah dem fellas with the school leaving certificate, the ones who kinda really supposed to be candidate for ALTA.

Paul said said from the initial investigations it was "reasonable" to think one of the victims, Wendy Courtney, was killed accidentally.
Reasonable? REASONABLE? Oh, I forget, he riding hip to hip with 'Collateral Damage' Pa-trick.

I guess that makes it okay for police to pull out guns and shoot in any general direction, regardless of standers-by and persons who may be in the line of fire.


In any other country, the police would hold their fire, let the perpetrators get away, and try to catch them another day. Why? Because the possiblity that someone could get hurt (or worse, killed as Wendy Courtney did) leads to the premise of 'better safe than sorry', or 'err on the side of caution'.

But in Trinidad, life is cheap, made cheaper by the callous uncaring attitudes of those whose responsibility it is to preserve life.

And since they no longer shooting one bandit at a time, I have to say, it cheaper by the dozen.
