A Suh Mi Sey
Putting an end to crime
By: Joan Wilson
I read with great shame and embarrassment the other day how they robbed the missionaries at Salvation Army. But to tell the truth I am not surprised. The only way crime is going to stop is unless the mothers and the baby mothers come together and start trying to make a difference.
These men have to rest their heads somewhere, they have to eat somewhere, they have someone in their lives that they 'check for'. But the simple truth is, women are enjoying the profits of crime and have no real need to make a difference. They are contented to spend the blood money, wash the bloody clothes, feast on the stolen goods, wear the stolen bling bling and hype up on their friends in the process. Some will even threaten you that they are going to "meck mi man buss yuh face". They take pride in being with a bad man. And at the end of the day they don't give a damn about the family that's left crying being because the bread winner was gunned down. They don't care about those who are left hungry, because the last money for food was robbed on the bus. Yet they want you to care when police gun down the culprit, then they come out and demonstrate and beg for justice.
Where is the justice when crime has so permeated the society that not even Christians now want to come and offer any assistance? We cry about how stink the situation is coming now regarding crime in our country, when we are really, seriously ready to put a stop to it, then let those women arise who are providing a safe haven for criminals.

Crime is an anti-social behaviour that only persists where a set of people within a society feel everything is going against them. Like the boys neglected and left to fend for themselves on the streets while their sisters are protected, encouraged to become independent and sent to school. Like the government investing in female gender issues while neglecting male gender issues. Like the preferential treatment given to females at micro-enterprise lending agencies while discriminating against the male clients.
You want to end the ever growing murderous crime? Invest in the education of males no less than you do for females and inspire them to become successful members of society, just like the females who are overflowing in the universities. Then and only then, you shall no longer know crime. The violent murderous crime.
Oh, I almost forgot. This is what the feminists intended for the wicked oppressive patriarchs, right? Look at the monsters killing each other. Soon they shall be no more and the women shall love each other, and live happily ever after. O what a wonderful world!
Finally someone is making sense on this site..big up your self "crime no more". we need more thinkers like you a yard.

Mothers and Fathers (or next best thing) need to put their children first in their lives. Children need love, support, provision and someone to be there for them. Where do you think they learn to take what they can, wherever they can? I say it's the children left on their own with no one that start runnin the streets. The blame goes all around. Are you the problem or part of the solution?

Greetings in the name of our Father. Yes what you are saying about these women is true but you must remember that these women are afraid of these men as well. first of all you cant trust the police the very people that is there to protect us. people are talking about education that is true as well but remember some will and some wont. crime is the life of some people unfortunatly. I know educated killers and robbers. coruption is the main culprit from top to bottom in our little Island. corupted people is the main reason for the crime that is taken over our country, greed bad mind these are the disease that is deep rooted in our people. if you cant trust the police them who can you trust. God help us. I am sorry to say but we could talk till the cows come home there is no immediate cure. its right back to the whole saying money is the root of all evil. money corupt people. there are people if you put education on a plate in front of them and put a gun on another plate I know whitch one they would choose and its not education so guess whitch one. I lived in the ghetto so let no one fool you. Some Jamaicans start making crazy money in the Eighties and thats when the whole madness started every one wanted to make crazy money. So what we are seeing now is what was building from them times, Its now matured and raising its ugly head. God help us. Dego
