I BELIEVE IN HANGING

So today I am going to rant about this month in general, the month of November. There were so many things that went wrong in this month alone that just makes me so sick. Those of you out there who actually take time out of your day to read a news paper would get what I am about to talk about. Because this just took the cake.

Look at that face people, that face belongs to pure evil. Memorize it, so that is our so called justice system fails us again and somehow this scum of the earth gets free and someone recognizes him, don't be afraid to put him down like the sick and diseased ridden rat that he is.

I am going to be basically grinding him into the dirt through one of our newspapers online articles by Elizabeth Williams of EXPRESS.

A charge of rape of an eight-year-old pupil and three others have been slapped on a 19-year-old Tobago man.

Jelani Arthur, 19, of Patience Hill, appeared before a Justice of the Peace yesterday afternoon.

 He was remanded into custody and will reappear before a Scarborough magistrate today on three charges of grievous sexual assault and one charge of rape against an eight-year-old primary school pupil. 

Lets stop right there. First of all, he wasn't supposed to even make it out of that station alive to appear before anyone. Back in the day form the stories my father told me, that the tougher the police were on these kinds of specimens the less likely they were to leave their homes and try to mingle among the masses, get tempted, commit some gut wrenching heinous crime, get caught and suffer the wrath of "real" police officers. Back then you couldn't find these kind of toxic waste roaming out and about after police caught up to them and the country was better for it.

Arthur faced similar charges against a five-year-old child three years ago and was housed at the Youth Training Centre (YTC) for some time. WPC Quamina laid the charges. 

Once again a government run facility fails us again. These facilities are created to house the young, dangerous and highly unstable youths of our society, where they can be checked out, psycho analysed, contained until said otherwise. Until that day reaches where a doctor with a well owned medical degree or whatnot and a whole lot of common sense says that it can be released or put down. But instead these places are being run like it is a tunnel, we hear about these young boys being held and sent there but whenever they arrive within the vicinity if the facility naturally they start to fade from your mind. They are no longer in the forefront of your thoughts so it is easy for these people to do a simple catch and release because no one wants to go through over crowding on a compound filled with hormone driven crazy young men. What better way to avoid such things by turning a blind eye and letting the one they deem harmless free.

On Tuesday, parents and fellow pupils of the schoolchild expressed shock and outrage when the girl was sexually assaulted in the bathroom of her school in Scarborough. The child was grabbed by a man armed with a knife who had entered the unfenced school compound.

Yes, apparently there are still schools in this dollar signed country with no security, no fencing (go figure) and no useful teachers. Sometimes when I sit and observe some of there people who call themselves educators I always come to the conclusion that 90% of the time they are always complaining and the other 10% they teach. And they always act all surprised when some of these kids slap them and do them all soughts of things when they demand respect but treat them like charity cases who only exist to give them a reason to draw a paycheck. I mean you would think with all the demanding and picketing they would have come up with some form of way for them to get proper security for their school and "their" children.

The principal of the school was alerted and broke down the door of the bathroom and wrestled the intruder to the ground, seizing a knife. Scarborough police later arrested the suspect. 

The school has been closed for the remainder of the week as security

measures are at present being implemented. 

Round-the-clock security Fencing, increased security mea­sures and round-the-clock security at the school have begun. Education Secretary Huey Cadette told the Express yesterday additional security measures, inclusive of CCTV came­ras, are being looked at. 

“The fencing work has begun; we are working on ensuring that there will be full, round-the-clock security from as early as Friday. So that all of those measures would be in place when school reopens fully on Monday,” Cadette said. 

Cadette said counselling for the teaching staff started on Tuesday and continues. 

“We are making that link with the

Victims Support Unit so that the family will also benefit, the child and, of course, the wider school body. And when they return, we would have to put things in place so that Monday, there is a mechanism to treat with the wider school body,” he said.

All I have to say to that is, it took the destruction of a girls innocence and all that she held good in the world for a lazy, over paid citizen to be hired and put to sit and enforce some sense of security.

Cadette also has a seven-year-old son attending the school. He said his immediate reaction upon hearing the news was not only the safety of his son but greater concern for the wider school population. 

“My son who attends the school, basically from what they hear because a lot has been said on the matter, and therefore while he may not be traumatized you still want to ensure all of the children go back to a sense of normalcy.” 

All schools in the country were assessed months ago for security needs, in conjunction with the Ministry of Education, and Cadette is awaiting a final report on the matter. 

“We await that final report from the ministry that will allow us to determine how we go forward with treating with the security concerns of all our schools—primary, secondary, early-childhood centres,” he said.

Well aint that surprising, the security of the future of this country is still in debate. Now please tell me what is there to debate about in providing fencing for a primary school? 

Tobago House of Assembly (THA) Chief Secretary Orville London, in offering his sympathies to the entire school population, said rebuilding of the school had been earmarked for the past ten years but was delayed due to a lack of funding from central government. He said short-term solutions are being looked at, inclusive of public-private partnerships. 

A meeting is to be held next Wed­nesday to address the rebuilding of the school and other projects on the drawing board. And while crime in Tobago has changed, London said the crime situation on the island is not untenable. 

Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh said in a news report yesterday that Trinidad would assist with security at Tobago schools.

This country is making me more depressed by the year. These politicians make me want to pop my eardrums whenever they talk. How is it someone can attend university and venture off into the world just gathering knowledge as you go and then come into a position such as a Minister of a country and not have anything worthwhile to contribute other than a statement when something goes wrong and they have to diffuse the situation? How much god damn roads are we going to build to "decrease" traffic? FUCK TRAFFIC! There are so many things that are being overseen because everyone wants to look at the big picture. Has anyone not notice that our laws are being diluted by the year to serve everyone elses purpose but ours? When is the oversight and corruption going to stop before a wave takes us we become a memory? Washed away by our own stupidity.
