If this bill passes then it will encourage police to wrongfully arrest innocent Jamaicans. If the human rights and lawyers that are making this claim step back and listen to what they are saying then they will be surprised at themselves.

This bring to mind the Politicians who make all this promises before they are elected but don’t fulfill the promises once they are elected. In the case of the Politicians because of some of then did wrong what we should do is stay home and not vote for any one. We really don’t do that because what would happen to the country is far greater than having a government who need to iron out some issues. The same thing goes for the bill, what is a country without rules, laws and penalty. (The ones we have aren’t working and no-one have the guts to make any changes)

A 5-year-old child knows right from wrong but if the child does wrong and the parent ignores that child then the child will continue to do wrong, and as the child grows so does the wrong. This is why we cannot continue to ignore what is happening in the country while it gets worse. This is why we need to do something because what we are doing now is not working and only an idiot will continue doing the same thing and expect a different outcome.

If rules are put in place that a person can be jailed for up to 60 days pending investigation then so be it. It there is concerns that police will abuse their power and wrongfully arrest someone due to spite or revenge then that police should be investigated, jailed and fired that can be a part of the bill. The investigation should be by an independent entity not the police to rule bias and corruption. The laws of the land are for everyone rich or poor, Politian or non-politicians, black or white no exclusion.

We have to do something this problem has been festering for too long. We cannot continue to be sitting ducks while the violence continue to raise havoc on our country while the majority looks on and the lawmakers and government looks on. We have to do something now!
