'T&T's appetite for blood, gore, scandal, death'
Trinidad and Tobago’s appetite for gore, bacchanal, scandal and death has left Attorney General Faris Al-Rawi wondering if this country has turned into a Roman Colosseum.
“The Roman Colosseum was the venue that opiated the Roman masses. How? By sacrificing Christians and gladiators to the sword and to the lions,” Al-Rawi explained.
“We seem to relish as a country in gore, bacchanal, scandal and death. Read our newspapers. They don't look like the US newspapers. There have been close to 130 mass murders in the US....a mass murder is where more than four people are killed in one shot...not a reflection of that in their newspapers. Jamaica, which is living under a state of emergency in certain parishes, not a reflection in their papers. Guyana, not a reflection in their papers. Trinidad and Tobago, from page one to the sports page all you could see is gore and gut,” the Attorney General lamented.

I have noted that under the previous government
murder was lower.Why is it under the PNM murders increase?
Never voted in any T&T elections,since I view all parties to be corrupt, as a taxpayer, I should be allowed to comment.
I dont support anyone .
Instead of obfuscation prove me wrong on the below quote?

Annual murder rate under UNC:
2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
354 383 408 403 410
So you were happy enough with those rates that there was no need to post every day.
But now suddenly, with a different party in power, your threshold for acceptance has been exceeded.
OK Boss. We understand.

You are showing your PNM underwear.
Then check out under the PNM the murder totals when they are in power
According to TTPS statistics, there were 496 murders in 2017, 462 murders in 2016, 420 murders in 2015, and 403 murders in 2014, in a population of approximately 1.4 million people.
The year 2008 recorded the highest murder rate with 550 homicides
2016.....462
2017.....500 murders were recorded in 2017.
2018.....The year 2018 ended with 516 murders, making it the second deadliest year in the history of T&T
2019 above what was committed in 2018 to date .
In such years above, the PNM in Power.See anything here?
For comparison look at the UNC numbers you posted.
It defeats your non insular assessment ...Huh?

So are you implying that PNM sends out murderers when elected ?
Can it be that during the UNC years the oil prices were much higher with less economic and social challenges?
Is correlation = causation?
Meanwhile please answer this:

Where did I say the PNM sent out killers every day.
YOu posted facts under UNC
I posted facts under PNM ...can you see such
Can you collaborate after reviewing the results
what is occuring in murders?
Can it be that during the UNC years the oil prices were much higher with less economic and social challenges
In November 2007, Prime Minister Patrick Manning of the People’s National Movement party won a second term in office amid an economic boom generated by the country’s natural gas industry.
From 1999 to 2008, the price of crude oil saw an unprecedented spike, going from under $25 per barrel to more than $160 per barrel.
The absolute peak occurred in June 2008 with the highest inflation adjusted monthly average crude oil price of $145.93 / barrel
it hovered between $100 and $125 until 2014, when it experienced another steep drop.
Look at when Oil prices were higher, you see facts and who governed.
I am a T&T citizen , I pay taxes , I dont like what I see,its a democracy ?
Are you trying to censor what I can post?
Please form your own opinion and dont try to say what I have not intended.I wouldn't waste my time and support any corrupt Political Party in T&T.
