PM must enforce special operations law in PNM-controlled constituencies
"the stinking racist jamette coolie prime minister "
Former PNM national security minister Marvin Gonzales told the nation that the Special Operations Act is racist law and must be rejected. Other Opposition MPs also raised concerns about provisions relating to searches, detention, curfews and other powers contained in the proposed legislation. In my capacity as president of the Criminal Bar Association, I have been bombarded with numerous vexatious comments and inquiries as per the Hon Prime Minister, Kamla Persad-Bissessar SC’s invidious statement that the Special Operations Bill law would not apply to People’s National Movement-controlled constituencies because the Opposition is insisting it would turn the country into a “police state.
It is within the context of the PNM Parliamentary representatives’ vicious rejection of the implementation of the Special Operations provisions that the Prime Minister stated in a social media post that the Government would effectively exclude PNM-controlled constituencies and local government districts from implementing the SO law if their representatives are not in support of the measure. It is my considered opinion that not all persons in the PNM representatives’ constituencies clearly prefer to be controlled by violent criminal gangs and the local drug mafia instead of being protected by law enforcement, as stated by the PM in her social media post.
Obviously, Prime Minister Persad-Bissessar is fed up, frustrated and angry with the Opposition MPs for their stand on this piece of legislation, which would assist in taking the country from the criminals. It is good law in an effort to re-establish peace and order in Trinidad and Tobago. It is obvious that the Prime Minister is still hurting from racist comments made against her—thus her statement, “The predictable comical manufactured drama coming from the PNM and their supporters is that "the stinking racist jamette coolie prime minister "is going to send the police and army to terrorize their supporters in their hardcore PNM constituencies. It’s the usual tired race and hate gritting that we’ve all grown accustomed to.”
