Nah. Can’t do that. Gangs in TT a real menace now. I doh understand why because nobody in the history of the region has spent more money on education and training than us but you can take a horse to the water but yuh can’t make it drink I guess

True in terms of spending, but what it tells you is money isn't the solution to fix broken things, at times it is the removal of corruption, cultural changes, uncorrupted and modern policing, modern banking system to expose corruption, and a sound judiciary- all of which involves professional peoples and none of which need just money to fix.
Question: Which two groups in TT do not want any change to the status quo?

Just returned from two weeks in Bim. If crime is a bunch of youths who want no work but spend their time glorifying guns then let them kill themselves off. Have not seen so many people in Bim ever and nary a police siren in that time. Airport was loaded day after day.
Another reason Bim cricket suck. Youths rather carry around a gun and make videos of it than go play cricket or football.

The Barbados Police Service has corrected what it called “inaccurate information” reported by the media in relation to the total number of murders in 2024.
In a press release, the Service notes that they have “recorded and investigated forty-nine (49) cases of Murder and one (1) case of Manslaughter” during that period.

Police report 49 murders were recorded in 2024 not 50
