KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent – Minister of National Security, Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves does not agree with one of the tactics the police have used to deal with violence at rural carnival events even as sponsor say violence could affect their contributions to rural festivals.
Police on Tuesday defended their policy of shutting down Carnival events where violence breaks out, saying is “not a heavy-handed approach”.
But Gonsalves said Wednesday that he does not agree with such an approach.
He spoke on radio of a development in South Rivers where police shut down an event although organisers had received permission to hold the activities within a certain timeframe.
“There is no disorder, how can you lock it down … I heard that it was announced by police on radio without any qualification that if there is a disruption, that they will close down entire event,” Gonsalves said.
He said the police should deal with unruly people rather than shutting down entire events.
“A lot of people underestimate the social value of festivals such as carnival — I do not. … I understand the sociology of the country,” he said.
He noted that people choice to participate or opt out of carnival activities.
“But people who want to enjoy themselves, let them enjoy themselves. …
We have to live and let live and balance the thing,” Gonsalves further stated.
Police have also prevented another event from happening altogether because of violence, Assistant Superintendent of Police Jonathan Nicholls said Tuesday.
“That is the stance we are going to take. It is not a heavy-handed approach,” the police spokesperson said at a Carnival Development Corporation (CDC) press briefing.
“We are looking at incidents and where we can intervene and remove perpetrators, we will do that but if we see the possibility of reprisal and vendetta vengeance and so on, we have to do what is right and ensure that citizens are not exposed to any unnecessary violence,” Nicholls said.
“We don’t just close festivals. We consult with the CDC…” he reiterated.
Police, Nicholls said, have several strategies to prevent crimes and keep citizens safe during Vincy Mas, which moves into high gear on Friday and climaxes with Mardi Gras on July 10.
Nicholls urged commuters to be patient with rerouted traffic and the delays expected to result from the stop and search of vehicles.
He further encouraged carnival-goers to leave all weapons at home, property-owner to secure and have their property well lit and parents to leave their children with responsible adults.
He further said that the Office of the Commission of Police would discuss with the CDC strategies to cope with the large number of rural carnival, which he said has taken “a heavy toll” on resources of the police, with some cops having to give up their furlough.
The situation, he said, is compounded when persons use Carnival activities to carry out personal vendettas.
“… we can have a hot festival minus the incidents of violence,” Nicholls said.
Sponsors warn against violence
Meanwhile, representatives of two Vincy Mas sponsors have warned against the potential negative impact of violence on the festival.
“… sponsors do not like to spend their money on events that have a violent overtones,” Fitz Huggins of LIME said at the CDC press briefing.
Huggins said that at rural carnival, “the ugly face of violence has been seen and we just want to warn these guys to keep it under control because you would not be able to attract sponsors if your event is not being controlled.”
Lamont Medica of the St. Vincent Brewery Ltd. said his company is pleased with the organisation of rural carnivals.
“I would just like to advise the persons who are going out there that are going out to support these rural carnivals and other CDC events that when we engage in these violent activities the police has to do their jobs they have to shut down the shows, the promoters and organiser they can’t make any money from the show and then that affects what they can do for the next year or next show,” he said.
“So I will just like to urge persons to stay away from violence and let’s keep it a violence free Carnival,” he further stated.
He said his company is committed to assisting the police and the CDC in ensuring adherence to the No Glass Bottle Policy and has increased production of canned drinks.
The Policy prohibits the sale of drinks in glass bottles at carnival events. Glass bottles are often used as projectiles during squabbles, injuring innocent persons.
i would say.its about time people get civilize and learn how to conduct themselves. this is 2012 not 1912. so if the police have to come in to stop a voilent person from acting up. that does not mean they should shutdown that event. get your trouble maker take them out of their. and continue what was happening. and these trouble makers should be lock up for the whole carnival season. then charge with a heavy fine. so it will set an example for anyone who even think about starting some mess. people will be coming from all over the world to our festival. so please keep it clean.stop the nonsence.do the right thing.
Posted by Jerome Xadux Neverson | June 29, 2012, 10:10Mr. PM you joking right, am in full support of the police if they behave bad closed it down, this does not need any justification, but one can understand is your area don’t be bayous.
Did the police closed down a carnival even in Biabou? I did not read anything from you on that matter yes Carnival people want to enjoy them self things must done in the right way
Posted by prince | June 29, 2012, 13:16While I can understand the enormous difficulty to police every nook and cranny and every tom dick and jane during carnival celebrations…ah must say, this policy is a load of crap. Are you telling me I pay my hard earn money to go to a show, and due to some arse#@!& I will have to suffer the consequences of being deprived of my entertainment? Isn’t this carry things too far?
So what exactly constitutes violence for a show to be shut down?…what if a man gets his head bust? Is this level of violence enough to shut down a show? What about if I see Vincypowa at a show and I walk up to him a bust a haaard slap on him?…we know, Vincypowa, will not react, cause he is a punk…will the police shut down a show for that? What if the performer is crap and the patrons start to stone him or her…will the police shut down the show?
I think the police is asking for more trouble with such policy…can you imagine a ram-pack Victoria and SKINNY TEARING THE PLACE UP…and then all of a sudden the show is shut down because of some arse#@!*? Really? ARE THE POLICE PREPARE FOR 10,000 RABID DIE-HARD SKINNY FANS GOING BALLISTIC? I am just saying.
I can appreciate the efforts of the police in trying to curb violence during the Carnival…but you can’t penalize the masses for the dotishness of a few. In the instance of someone getting KILLED AT A SHOW or some THREAT THAT WILL PUT PEOPLE LIVES IN DANGER…I can understand the need to shut down a show for such tragedy. But ah can’t support the shutting down of a show, because of a few Vincypowas.

SAADISS, again, where do you LIVE, MARS or in a FIRST WORLD COUNTRY called the UNITED STATES of AMERICA?
I have to ask that QUESTION because it seems like you’re DUMBFOUNDED by the FACT that if an EVENT is marred by VIOLENCE in the so-called FIRST WORLD NATION that is AMERICA, which you live, it is HIGHLY LIKELY that LAW ENFORCEMENT is going to SHUT that event down.
All this MOUTH that you have on this BLOG, you would not have said a WORD to LAW ENFORCEMENT in AMERICA, if you had gone to one of those events where VIOLENCE caused the event to close.
Well guess what, instead of trying to criticize the LAW ENFORCEMENT in SVG for DOING the RIGHT THING, by CLOSING DOWN the EVENT, I SUGGEST that you BLAME the PROMOTERS for not HIRING PROPER SECURITY to DEAL with INDIVIDUALS who come to these EVENTS to CAUSE PROBLEMS.

Now, I am wondering where RALPH GONSALVES LIVES? DUMBC#^+ AKA VINCYPOWA, ah guess you didn’t get the memo from your MASSA. Maybe you were too busy imbibing that thick whitish fluid and so wasn’t aware of it?. Anyone with an iota of commonsense can see that this policy by the police is the height of dotishness…And you comparing the US with Vincyland is straight from the teachings of savant sarahpalin…the level of violence and its potential of mass destruction in the US calls for drastic countermeasures…you cannot apply the same measures in SVG as such type and scale of violence is quite unlikely in Vincyland. Plus the dynamics in Vincyland during the Carnival period lends itself for a commonsense approach with an eye to making sure that folks have an enjoyable time. This policy dictates that PETER PAYS FOR PAUL AND PAUL PAYS FOR ALL…with this approach you might as well tell people to STAY AT HOME. The police in SVG is using a rock to crack an egg.
DUMBC#^+ AKA VINCYPOWA…do you still hold to your views on this issue…are you BRAVE ENOUGH TO PUBLICLY DENOUNCE YOUR MASSA? YOUR MASSA SAYS HE DISAGREES WITH THIS POLICY THAT YOU SO BLINDLY SUPPORTS…ARE YOU WILLING TO SAY PUBLICLY THAT YOUR MASSA LIVES ON MARS AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE @#$% HE IS TALKING ABOUT? ARE YOU GOING TO STICK TO YOUR GUNS OR ARE YOU GOING TO RETRACT YOUR STATEMENT AND FALL IN LINE AND ASSUME YOUR NORMAL POSITION OF BEING ON YOUR KNEES?
Ah know you will want to come and put on ah act to take shame from yo eye..but we all know, you will be soon running to Massa for forgiveness…ah guess you are in a bind eh…oh what a tangle weave we have sewn,,,,DO I RETRACT MY STATEMENT AND FACE THE WRATH OF THE SAADISS OR DO I DENOUNCE MY MASSA, AND PUT MY PRESTIGIOUS JOB AS FELLATOR-IN-CHIEF IN JEOPARDY?
Mm…
Posted by Saadiss | June 29, 2012, 14:28SAADISS:
I have given up commenting on anything VincyPowa has to say a long time ago. He would argue against anyone he asumes might be taking a position against Dr. Gonsalves even when he doesn’t know the merits or on which side the PM is on. It is said: Never argue with a tool.
But I don’t ever call anyone a fool.
Posted by DWells | June 30, 2012, 07:43DWELLS:
SOMETIMES, YOU JUST CAN’T RESIST THE TEMPTATION TO PUT A BULWOOD ON DUM-DUM VINCYPOWA…LOL. That being said, Ralphie really made a fool of his minions;maybe he was on something when he made that statement…or had some sort of epiphany, I don’t know. But what I do know, is that Dum-Dum is still in shock and is still in a quandary as to how he will respond to this post..lol. I suspect he will stay low and wait this one out, hoping that Massa give him the green light to speak once again.
On a much serious note, let me reiterate my position… it is commendable that the police is trying to implement policies to curb the violence that so hinders our National festival. However, this heavy-handed approach is not the solution; I believe a STRONG POLICE PRESENCE AT SOME OF THE BIG SHOWS WILL BE A BETTER APPROACH AND WILL DETER MOST FOLKS FROM ACTING A FOOL. No approach is perfect, there will always be some ass in the midst trying to spoil people fun…but I am confident with proper guidelines in place, the police could take care of such situation without hampering other people’s enjoyment.
…On a entirely separate issue-Can I just express my utmost joy in the decision to uphold President Obama’s signature, Health Care Law. I would have been the SADDEST MAN ON PLANET EARTH HAD THE SUPREME COURT OVERTURN THAT LAW. But kudos to Justice Roberts in showing absolute backbone, it was a most LIONHEARTED MOVE BY THE CHIEF JUSTICE. Now President Obama can confidently stride into November, looking forward to a second term. OOOHRAAA!!!
PS: YES Dum-Dum no need to remind me that I backed Hilary over Obama during the Primaries and have no business in championing the cause of President Obama..but like the President on some issues, I have EVOLVED…HAVE YOU? SADLY, THE ABUNDANCE OF EVIDENCE THUS FAR CONCLUDES TO A RESOUNDING, NO!
Posted by Saadiss | July 1, 2012, 13:38. . . . Never argue with a TOOL . . . .
That sounds sweeter than even the proverbs “. . . . Answer NOT a man . . . .”; “. . . . ANSWER a man . . . . ”
I am in stitches. DWELLS, you are a fancy Vincy man.
Never argue with a T- fool .
Posted by STEVE_HUGGINS | July 1, 2012, 21:39First off, let me say this; KENTON CHANCE, thanks for showing your TRUE COLORS.
Why did you take the comments from a DIFFERENT THREAD, which was posted on MAY 30, and post it in this one?
Surely the comments by SAADISS and VINCYPOWA were not the only POSTINGS in that thread.
I guess you saw an OPPORTUNITY to STICK IT to VINCYPOWA and so you CUT n PASTE those posts in this blog.
Not only that, you edited part of my POST and left Saadiss’ unedited, showing again your BIAS against VINCYPOWA.
http://i-witness-news.com/2012/05/30/police-to-end-carnival-events-where-violence-erupts/
I posted the link so everyone can see where you got those two posts from. I want everyone to see the REAL KENTON CHANCE in action.
Nevertheless, I will ADDRESS what Saadiss has to say with COMMONSENSE and INTELLIGENCE unlike the NOISE MAKING as seen displayed in his post.
So SAADISS REAPPEARS on the SCENE of this BLOG, motivated, I am sure, by the statement made by Dr. Gonsalves in regards to disagreeing with the decision by POLICE to SHUTDOWN the event in his constituency.
That said; one has to look at what we’re talking about in regards to shutting down an EVENT because of VIOLENCE. Now if two persons are having a FIGHT and the SECURITY or even the POLICE stops the INCIDENT and THROWS the GUILTY parties out of the EVENT or lock them up, surely the event should CONTINUE. However, if GUNSHOTS RING OUT at the EVENT and PEOPLE are SHOT and you have MASS CHAOS, are you going to say KEEP the EVENT going?
No, the POLICE should SHUT DOWN the EVENT, just like they would in the REGION and wherever NINCOMPOOP SAADISS lives in America.
I GUARANTEE you that Dr. Gonsalves would not have agreed that the event in his constituency should have continued if that kind of violence took place. .
That said; KENTON CHANCE, who clearly has demonstrated his bias against VINCYPOWA, because I SUPPORT Dr. Gonsalves and his GOVERNMENT, even STATED that Dr. Gonsalves doesn’t agree with “ONE OF THE TACTICS the POLICE HAVE USED at RURAL CARNIVAL EVENTS.”
In other words, whatever the violence that took place in his constituency; it did not merit the event shutting down. So yes, I understand where Dr. Gonsalves is coming from in the context of that PARTICULAR event in his constituency
However, if what took place at the EVENT in his CONSTITUENCY was one where GUNSHOTS were FIRED and PEOPLE GOT KILLED or HURT, I have UTMOST CONFIDENCE that he would not have stated that the event should have CONTINUED or the POLICE was WRONG for CLOSING down the EVENT.
For example, I read where in America, where NINCOMPOOP Saadiss LIVES, that there was an incident at an EVENT at a club involving Chris Brown and his entourage and Drake and his entourage. This incident INVOLVED the THROWING of BOTTLES across a ROOM, and it led to many people getting hurt. The event was RIGHTFULLY CLOSED down by the POLICE.
Are we saying that if a SIMILAR INCIDENT happens in SVG, during the CARNIVAL SEASON, at a RURAL EVENT or wherever, that somehow Dr. Gonsalves was going to say that the POLICE was wrong to CLOSE DOWN the event?
LOOK, let us use the BRAIN that the GOOD LORD has BLESSED US with and make SENSE out of NONSENSE.
The fact of the matter is this, if VIOLENCE on that LEVEL doesn’t LEAD to the SHUTDOWN of the EVENT, then you is only ENCOURAGING more and more VIOLENCE of that nature at CARNIVAL events, PLAIN and SIMPLE.
Surely, an INTELLIGENT, CHARISMATIC and COMMONSENSE LEADER, the likes of Dr. Gonsalves, is not going to OPPOSE that DECISION taken by the POLICE, IRRESPECTIVE of the FACT the INCIDENT took place in his CONSTITUENCY.
Moreover, I am UTMOST CONFIDENT that if it ever turns out to be a SITUATION where an event is MARRED with VIOLENCE involving GUNFIRE, PEOPLE GETTING STABBED with knives or persons got “CUT UP” with a CUTLASS, there is no way on this EARTH that Dr. Gonsalves is going to say that the EVENT should not have been CLOSED down by the POLICE.
It was in that CONTEXT that I said that the POLICE SHOULD CLOSE down the EVENT if it is “MARRED by VIOLENCE,” just like they would in AMERICA or anywhere else in the Caribbean.
By the way, KUDOS to the NO BOTTLE POLICY of the Ralph Gonsalves led government during the CARNIVAL season. Frankly, I am suggesting that they install this policy at BIG EVENTS outside of the CARNIVAL season as well.
Oh yeah, just in case NINCOMPOOP SAADISS and the other MINIONS of the NDP and the RALPH HATERS do not know what the words “MARRED BY VIOLENCE” means, allow me to help.
So if a CARNIVAL event is “MARRED by VIOLENCE,” are we saying that POLICE should not SHUT it down?
In closing, Kenton, I have an even better appreciation of why you do not allow posts to be seen immediately after bloggers click the “post comment” button.
And yes, it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with you WORRYING about being SUED, but more to do with one of your INTENTIONS to MANIPULATE what is SEEN and how LONG it is seen by the public before you decide to post the other responses.
Again, I thank you for showing your TRUE COLORS.
SAADISS, SEE U around BUB.
Posted by VINCYPOWA | June 30, 2012, 17:30First of all DUMBC#^+, Mr Chance should sue you for DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER…MR CHANCE DID NOT CUT AND PASTE YOUR PREVIOUS COMMENTS HERE, I DID!
Secondly, you are spinning top in mud, trying to defend your position and at the same time defend your MASSA POSITION, which is diametrically opposite to your point of view…YOU ARE TRULY A DUMBC#^+….Read my post again, I clearly indicated to which degree I would support the shutting down of an event…you are NOT SAYING ANYTHING ENLIGHTENING…you are making straw man arguments.
The SVG Police ought to clarify their position and tell the public the specifics to which an event will be shut down…that way the public has a proper understanding of what is expected of them. Look, SVG IS NO AMERICA…yes there are fools aplenty in Vincyland…but for the most part, the THUG MENTALITY IS NOT AS PERVASIVE IN VINCYLAND AS IT IS IN THE US. Put a HEAVY POLICE PRESENCE AT THE THESE BIG EVENTS AND I AM CERTAIN THE INCIDENTS OF VIOLENCE WILL BE MINIMAL OR EVEN NON-EXISTENT.
So, Dumbc#^+, is Ralph Gonsalves from Mars or what? You like the Republicans when they criticize members of the TEAPARTY…HRS LATER, THEY RUN SEEKING FORGIVENESS, GROVELLING AND APOLOGIZING PROFUSELY. Just look at how you are grovelling… “Surely, an INTELLIGENT, CHARISMATIC and COMMONSENSE LEADER, the likes of Dr. Gonsalves, is not going to OPPOSE that DECISION taken by the POLICE, IRRESPECTIVE of the FACT the INCIDENT took place in his CONSTITUENCY”…REALLY? SINGING FOR YOUR SUPPER, EH. YOU ARE SIMPLY A SORRY EXCUSE FOR A MAN…NOT FOR ONE MOMENT, CAN YOU SHOW SOME BACKBONE. GET OFF YOUR KNEES FOR A MINUTE NAH…DAMN.
Yeah, see you around, FELLATOR-IN-CHIEF.
Posted by Saadiss | July 2, 2012, 13:00VINCY POWA, methinks if you used more CAPITL, UPPER CASE, LETTERS, then your blogs just might become MORE UNDERSTANDABLE to the average guy.
Note, though, that I am a protege of the protege of the top two proponents of the use of the upper case in journals.
Posted by STEVE_HUGGINS | July 3, 2012, 15:54Get our three criminaly convicted police officers to arrest a few in the crowd, interrogate them, torture them and beat them almost to death. Then get them to agree to any unsolved crimes that we need to clear up, its that simple, we have the technology, we have the scum in the police force, lets make use of it.
Posted by Peter | June 29, 2012, 14:50Ralphie nah jus’ throw his police cronies under the ‘bus – - – but he ALSO throw VINCY POWA and fellow travellers UNDER THE BUS. Pobres compadres. Better luck next times, guys. Fawning, mendicant, parochial, politically partisan server-boys, acolytes galore.
The Gonsalves ULP regime done totally destroy and exterminated the SOUTH RIVERS people BANANA INDUSTRY, yuh tink the self-styled ‘comrade’ DARE RESTRICT AND RETARD THEIR CARNIVAL FESTIVITIES that they are supposed to use to ‘blow off steam’ ? At least, he dare not give the appearance of supporting or otherwise backing those police/authorities who do such restrict or retarding.
BUT TELL ME, POOR VINCY, NUH?
WHO is the MINISTER OF NATIONAL SECURITY ?
WHO is the POLITICIAN, Minister, IN CHARGE OF POLICE AND POLICE AFFAIRS ?
He TOO BUSY flying like a KITE all over the world on expensive joy-ride commie junkets, WHILE NEGLECTING THE BUSINESS OF THE PEOPLE OF HIS CONSTITUENCY AND COUNTRY ?
He too busy COMMUNIZING SVG to notice the real needs of South Rivers ?
He ‘bin on he latest “mondy marning trip” to fetch his communist orders from Castro or Chavez ?
WHO IS THE MINISTER OF LEGAL AFFAIRS, or ‘Justice ‘ in S.V.G. ?
Who is the CONSTITUENCY REPRESENTATIVE FOR SOUTH RIVERS and the NORTH CENTRAL WINDWARD CONSTITUENCY ?
WHO is the MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT FOR SOUTH RIVERS ?
Who is the PRIME MINISTER OF S.V.G. ? Where the hell was he, all this time – - – till he nah be know ?
SOUTH RIVERS, false Communist advocates have DESTROYED YOUR BANANA INDUSTRY – - – just like Vincent I. Beache USED TO, but nah now, STERNLY WARN YOU, a long time ago.
SOUTH RIVERS, false Communist advocates would DESTROY YOUR CULTURE, as you know it – - – just like VINCENT BEACHE USED TO WARN YOU, a long time ago, nah now.
SOUTH RIVERS, should the Communists gain FULL AND TOTAL CONTROL of our fair and blessed Land of SVG, then THEY WOULD SURELY TAKE AWAY YOUR LAND and any PROFITS – - – just like our once-beloved native son Vincent Ian Beache USED TO WARN US.
SOUTH RIVERS, with mainly your aid, because of their false DECEPTIVE propaganda, the MARXIST-LENINISTS fifth columnists in our midst HAVE BEEN BUSY DESTROYING OUR FREE, SOVEREIGN, INDEPENDENT, DEMOCRATIC STATE – - – just like Vincent and other patriotic Vincentians and countrymen used to WARN US.
HELP S.V.G. to finally KICK THIS COMMUNIST HABIT that we have lately been naively tolerating.
Ley the Castros and Hugo Chavez go back, EMPTY-HANDED.
Posted by STEVE_HUGGINS | June 29, 2012, 19:01STEVE_HUGGINS, your NOISE MAKING is not going to INFLUENCE anyone, so I suggest that you try a DIFFERENT approach.
Posted by VINCYPOWA | June 30, 2012, 17:54SOUTH RIVERS, is sacrosanct in the eyes of GONSALVES, if you don’t pay your VINLEC bill and get cut off, better not do that VINLEC, GONSALVES say no way, they my people. Drain their sewage into the river, that OK say GONSALVES, that’s very different to shi!!ing on your own doorstep. Take that from the SVG specialist DONKEY THE LIAR KING.
Posted by Peter | July 1, 2012, 08:45Ah even heard ZION – I ‘s calypso, ” I – Brave ” this past Friday afternoon ON NBC – 705.
But, they DESECRATED the preliminary performance of this kaiso BY UNCHARITABLY TALKING OVER THE SONG during its competitive performance. Now, it playing ‘normal’ – - – at least, for now.
WHERE are the contrary ‘legal’ OPINIONS now that their POLITICAL Maasa has spoken ?
AREN’T the ONE-SIDED, PAROCHIAL, POLITICAL PARTISANS, and mendicant band-wagon hitchers THOROUGHLY ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES ?
” WHEN PAPA-DOC duvalier TALK, THEN, LET NO DAMNED MANGIE DOG BARK !! ”
Oh, the perils of a long-suffering SYCOPHANT.
You pagan ACOLYTES and political Server-boys, SERVE the propagandist ‘comrade’ well.
Posted by STEVE_HUGGINS | July 1, 2012, 16:30LOL@KENTON SHOULD SUE ME FOR DEFAMATION.
I think you should REFER to yourself as the “DUMBA..E,” because all that GIRLY NOISE you making FITS you PERFECTLY
First off, let me say, MY BAD, to Kenton.
So SAADISS, you came out of hiding because you felt that you saw an OPPORTUNITY to do what you do BEST, THROW a TEMPER TANTRUM.
Not only did you cut and paste my POST from the other thread, you edited it as well, because you know the TRUTH HURTS.
I will KEEP that in MIND for FUTURE REFERENCE.
That said; my POSITION is CLEAR, but it SEEMS like you are BLIND or you have allowed your EMOTIONS to GET the BEST of you, so allow me to REPEAT it in its ENTIRETY.
“SAADISS, again, where do you LIVE, MARS or in a FIRST WORLD COUNTRY called the United States of America?
I have to ask that QUESTION because it seems like you are DUMBFOUNDED by the FACT that if an EVENT is marred by VIOLENCE in the so-called FIRST WORLD NATION that is AMERICA, which you live, it is HIGHLY LIKELY that LAW ENFORCEMENT is going to SHUT that event down.
All this MOUTH that you have on this BLOG; you would not have said a WORD to LAW ENFORCEMENT in AMERICA, if you had gone to one of those events where VIOLENCE caused the event to close.
Well guess what, instead of trying to criticize the LAW ENFORCEMENT in SVG for DOING the RIGHT THING, by CLOSING DOWN the EVENT, I SUGGEST that you BLAME the PROMOTERS for not HIRING PROPER SECURITY to DEAL with INDIVIDUALS who come to these EVENTS to CAUSE PROBLEMS.
As for slapping me, and I won’t do anything, I SUGGEST that you GET your HEAD out of FANTASY LAND.
That said; you sorta REMIND me of a VIDEO I saw on YOUTUBE of a PUNK typing away at his COMPUTER on a SOCIAL NETWORK SITE, as if he is an INTERNET THUG, but when he MET one of the persons in REAL LIFE that he was badgering, the INTERNET BADMAN turned out to be nothing more than a PUNK, as he got a BEAT DOWN without RESISTANCE.
Yes, that is EXACTLY what will happen to you as well. However, I won’t waste my time on U. I might let another SENIOR CITIZEN do my BIDDING, because I do not want to TAKE ADVANTAGE of U.
LOL@OLD ASS SAADISS talking about SLAPPING ME…HILARIOUS, because he is PROBABLY about 60 years old..”
I am saying that if a carnival EVENT in SVG is MARRED by VIOLENCE, I am 101% in SUPPORT of the POLICE SHUTTING it DOWN. To do otherwise would be STUPIDITY on the part of the POLICE, because the event could lead to more VIOLENCE for a number of reasons. For example, the VIOLENCE could have involved GUNS, KNIVES or CUTLASS, and so the place where the event took place automatically becomes a CRIME SCENE.
Therefore, for someone to say that the POLICE should not SHUTDOWN an EVENT DURING CARNIVAL TIME, even though it was MARRED with VIOLENCE, which is my POSITION, it just shows the IDIOCY of that individual.
That said; I am UTMOST CONFIDENT that if the event in Dr. Gonsalves’ CONSTITUENCY were MARRED by VIOLENCE, he too would have AGREED with the POLICE DECISION to SHUTDOWN the EVENT.
That said; at the news conference, Dr. Gonsalves was talking about why SHUTDOWN the event in his constituency when there was NO DISORDER. So I do not know how that STANCE somehow means that he DISAGREES with my POSITION of SUPPORTING the POLICE DECISION to SHUTDOWN an EVENT if it is MARRED by VIOLENCE.
Only that PEA BRAIN of SAADISS would CONCLUDE that his comment about the situation in Dr. Gonsalves’ constituency is EVIDENCE that somehow he DISAGREES with my POSITION.
Do you think for a second that Dr. Gonsalves is going to DISAGREE with the POLICE for SHUTTING DOWN an EVENT MARRED by VIOLENCE?
You have to be a BIGGEST CUNUMUNU on this BLOG if you BELIEVE that he would.
HE WILL NOT!!!
I won’t waste time to tell you the REPERCUSSIONS that this would cause POLITICALLY, LEGALLY and SOCIALLY, because you have too much of a DONKEY BRAIN and too much of a RALPH HATER to even understand the SEVERITY of such a decision, if made by the PM.
So no, I do not DISAGREE with the PM, and I do not DISAGREE with the officer(s) who was/were just carrying out the policy of the department.
I am sure the Police Department is going to fine-tune their POLICY so as not to shut down carnival events for any or every WILLY NILLY reason.
All that said; again, I am 101% CONFIDENT that any CARNIVAL EVENT that is MARRED by VIOLENCE WILL BE SHUTDOWN by the POLICE and WILL be SUPPORTED by PM, just like what would happened in the NECK OF THE WOODS SAADISS LIVES in America.
LOL n SMH@PEA BRAIN SAADISS CLAIMING that you CANNOT COMPARE SVG with AMERICA when it comes to something so ELEMENTARY as CLOSING DOWN an EVENT if it is MARRED by VIOlENCE.
EARTH to SAADISS, COME IN SAADISS.
And with that, I REST my CASE.
Posted by VINCYPOWA | July 2, 2012, 16:16VINCY POWA, blame Ralph Gonsalves. Is he who throw you under the bus. DEAL WITH HE. Yuh ‘fraid,nuh?
WHY NOT deal with Ralp’s words and pronouncements ? How come yuh trying to blame everyone else – - – but THE MAN WHO THROW YOU UNDER THE ‘BUS ?
Posted by STEVE_HUGGINS | July 3, 2012, 16:07STEVE_HUGGINS, Dr. Gonsalves did not THROW me UNDER the BUS.
It was SAADISS’ INABILITY to COMPREHEND what I had stated and his INABILITY to COMPREHEND what Dr. Gonsalves said that led him to CONCLUDE that he [Dr. Gonsalves] OPPOSES my POSITION.
At no time did Dr. Gonsalves say that POLICE should not SHUT DOWN an EVENT if MARRED by VIOLENCE.
Instead he said, “There is NO DISORDER, how can you lock it down …”
Now tell me how “THERE IS NO DISORDER” and “MARRED BY VIOLENCE” are in AGREEMENT with each other?
The only person THROWN UNDER the BUS is PEA BRAIN SAADISS for his IDIOCY.
Posted by VINCYPOWA | July 4, 2012, 15:17I see Vincy Powa even EXPLAINING to Gonsalves these days WHAT HE Gonsalves “really” ‘intended’ to say. In light of the POLITICAL IDOL straying INABILITIY TO COMPREHEND what he THE IDOL himself INTENDED TO SAY, then the VP runs the full gamut and TELLS THE MAASA, NOW, WHAT EVEN THE MAASA INTENDED TO SAY. VP cherry pick his PAGAN IDEOLOGICAL IDOL’s words SO MUCH that VP HAS NOT YET, EVEN TO NOW, SEEN THE SPANKING REBUKE THAT THE COMMUNIST HANDED OUT TO POOR VP AND ALL HIS FAWNING,MENDICANT, ACOLYTES AND WANNABE ‘SOCIALIST’ SERVER-BOYS.
