Business as usual?: Video Disturbing Footage Jamaican Police Execute A Man Murder Suspec...


 And then they ask us to trust the police?

My heart pains me at the very thought that this is actaully happening in Jamaica.
I mean, it has long been suspected and countless citizens have cried out for justice on infinite occassions for those they say were killed in cold blood by the police, but these cries have gone unheard.

Were it not for this one well thinking citizen who decided to video the dreadful act and then turn it over to the media, cries coming from this incident, if any, would again go unheard and the Constabulary Communication Network, CCN, would again report that the man attacked the police and was shot and nothing would have come of it.

What's even more frightening is the fact that the police was there beating the man and the residents were there cheering him on and even when he got the shot they were there calling for 'one more'!

Inspite of, he's somebody's child and he felt it as much as any of us would.
The residents have admitted that he was a drug addict- the man was not sane- and that's how they treat him and then tell me that he attacked the police?

This is how the police treat a citizens who they're supposed to serve, protect and reasure?
How can anyone tell me about justice and trusting police?
These things only happen to poor people and their children and that's why i've long subscribed to the argument that, 'all men are created equal, but some are more equal than others."

The Director of Public Prosecutions is to rule on the matter, so i'm listeninng and watching to see if anything will come out of it or if it's gonna be business as usual.
