They have no respect for life.I saw a few of these guys in linden and these are the same men who are killing and intimidating their own people, killing them no doubt for money and bribe and for the 30 pieces. Like the blackman's life has no value in Guyana.
How sad it is that this ppp regime is using black police and soldiers to shot and kill black women, children and old women and most of all to kill and silence the black youths who would naturally appose their wickedness and oppression.
I wonders if the police man who shot Randy Tello in his face has any children , nieces or nephews. How can you shot some one in their face like this, in most countries you cant even shoot an animal much more people.
Looks like this ppp regime is up to its old trick again like it was in 2004-2006 where they killed hundred of innocent black males. Like they have a plan to kill out the rest of them.
Those black police men in Guyana I have lost all respect for them.They are a disgrace to the human race nothing less than mercenaries who are willing to kill for the right price , house.They are the house slave to the government and they must be viewed by the afro guyanese has they enemies.
I hope the human right bodies are taking notes of the atrocities and injustices that in taking place in Guyana . The regime has declared war upon us black people and is using black stooges to carry out this genocide, Linden now I wonder where else next.
If this police and soldiers brutuallity continues then people have a right to defend themselves and families against this holocaust taking place at the present time.
Your intention was to KILL him!!!
THIS CRUEL ACTION TO HUMANS IS UNACCEPTED AND CONTRAVENES MILITARY CONDUCT IN OPERATIONS OF THIS NATURE!
The fact is that irrespective of what he thinks, feels or does either for himself or his puppet masters at 'Freedom House' will not save himself, Jagdeo, Donald Duck, Luncheon, Sam Blinds, Gary Best and all other house slaves and Uncle Toms from the day of reckoning which will soon descend upon them all.
The regime that Kwame continues to serve as a toothless poodle and a blind follower has committed numerous rights abuses which have been clearly documented for the world to see on all of the various social media sites ranging from FaceBook to You Tube. The local media houses ranging from the courageous Demerara Waves to the brave Gordon Moseley now face persistent threats to life and limb given the recent utterances emanating from the lunatic fringe at Office-of-the-President and 'Freedom House'. The recent assaults and singling out of respected journalist Freddie Kissoon and political activist Mark Benschop bears testimony to the PPP's acts of desperation and depravity.
The local UN Offices in Guyana are also just as guilty of this kind of behaviour because like the so called ABC countries as a fellow writer put - 'seem quite unconcerned about the patent injustices being meted out against the African community at Linden'. In fact the current behaviour of the UN agencies in Guyana is similar to the very nonchalant premise adopted by the then Secretary General of the United Nations - Koffi Annan towards the situation in Rwanda at that time.
Needless to same Koffi Annan ended up as the worst Secretary General in the history of the United nations. The current nonchalant attitude of the UN offices in Guyana coupled with the apathy of the PPP regime now leaves the valiant freedom fighters to recognise that they must intensify the struggle for human dignity, respect and economic equity.
The fact also stands out quite clearly that the PPP and Donald Duck do not take kindly to any kind of criticism from any quarters so now even press freedom is under threat in Guyana given the recent threats issued by the regime against the local media and various social media sites. What are they suggesting that very soon they will be instructing the various telecoms operators and ISPs to start blocking access to social media?
Just recently as well - the respected Inter-American Commission on Human Rights also condemned the regime for its flagrant and patent human rights violations. This latest assault on press freedom as noted in the regime's singling out bloggers, writers, journalists and all those that are putting their lives and livelihood on the line to expose the naked truth must be strongly condemned by the international community as it violates the UN Charter of Rights and the Treaty of Chapultepec that guarantees press freedom in the Americas.
Long Live the Struggle - No Retreat, No Surrender! Umkhonto we Sizwe!
Denis Chabrol and all those in the media world, private sector, and every body who calling and concentrating on normalcy and the place being quiet, instead of securing justice for those who have been unjustly treated, can this be right? A picture tells a thousand words and Ramotar is drenched in the blood of those he is brutalizing.
How can there be normlacy in the face of all these bloody bad treatment. I am too upset today.
If persons cannot send Tello picture to the international human rights bodies and diplomatic community, please post the contact on line, so others can send out the appeals for justice for the Lindeners. The is a bloody crime against humanity. Damnit!
Is there no real justice in Guyana? No one has a consciense? You put protesters before the courts with a string of trumped up charges and the officers who murder and maim the people outside of the law continue to do so without sanction. A people con only take so much and no more. Mr. Ramotar why are you pushing Linden to its Limit? Have you no heart? Would you condone this if it were you and your family? You have the power to put an end to this madness before it is too late.
"OPPRESSION ANYWHERE IS A THREAT TO FREEDOM EVERYWHERE"
If we must die, let it not be like hogs
Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot,
While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs,
Making their mock at our accursèd lot.
If we must die, O let us nobly die,
So that our precious blood may not be shed
In vain; then even the monsters we defy
Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!
O kinsmen! we must meet the common foe!
Though far outnumbered let us show us brave,
And for their thousand blows deal one death-blow!
What though before us lies the open grave?
Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!
Claude McKay
This poem was written in response to colonial oppression. All West Indians who felt the sting of oppression held, and still hold, writers such as McKay and our very own Martin Carter in high esteem. Every one wanted liberation no matter the cost.
Mr. President You deploy your Police and army to lay siege to a town as if at war. They murder, maim and terrorize until, "everywhere the faces of men are strained and anxious"(Carter) and you Mr. President condone and justify their actions. Lindeners are citizens too as legitimate as those at Tain. This situation will define your presidency. Choose how you want to go down in the history books- A murdering dictator or a true patriot.
and we trained to shoot a supect on his lower lims not on his face,head or body
lower lims means legs or foots these policemen dont understand what their trained for when using a firearms
Ramotar, put a stop this madness NOW or face the consequences. Nothing lasts forever.
monetoo or who the hell you are , Mr silly name more like it. Did you not read that the police and locals arrested 2 guys and they stated that they were told to burn down by ppp agigators or are you delibrately leaving that bit out.
Honestly ,I dont belived that you were ever supporting the people of Linden. You are a mere simple minded and dishonest sub human with no respect for life or humanity. Your silly name like you speaks for itself.
Hey but dont fight up, what goes around comes around. Rememeber in egypt the soldier were shotinf thr protestor at the start of the of the revolution and then they turned on the regime. Its only a matter of time the soldier are going to realise that they are killing their own people and that the real enemy is this brutual ppp racist apartheid regime.
I wonder what are you going do when this happens. I am sure that if you had your way would like to see everyone in linden killed , that really what u would like, you scum bag.
So dont come here with your stupility and deceit ; I know your type wolf in sheep clothing so go back to your rat hole call freedom house and think again about another scheme.
I am sure that the good and decent people of linden dont need any support from you, you gennal. I cant understand how and why you would want to suported the people of Linden when in your cold and corrupt self you mean them no good.
Dont worry moneytoo every thought that we think would be judged by Jah. More fire, more fire for the wicked and the haters of God first born , moneytoo fire bun you your judgement time near you deceitfull creature.
Big up the people of Linden , nuff respect you all of you up there ,Jah guide and protect, for neither guns and bullets nor police and soldiers can stop Jah work prophecy must be full filled , for its judgment time for all the oppressors and the unjust and wicked people of Guyana fire bun you all.
"The party headed by Brigadier (Rtd) David Granger has lamented that the operation which commenced on Friday last and continues to date “has so far resulted in injuries to several innocent civilians, including women and children, many of whom were in their homes.”
The Party, particularly, “deplored the shooting in the face of 10-year old Nkosi Henry while he was standing in his yard at One Mile Wismar on 12th August.”
This whole country of leaders is SICK and the Police is on a shooting spree.
DW, these dangerous and racially divisive statements and others like it are consistently allowed to be vented. Why?
Sounds like you are in contact with God!!
What is Guyana turning to this is despicable how the police and soldiers treat their own fellow Guyanese now a days it hurts badly me to see this happen to my home country may god helps us to solve this issue because the government is not helping at all there just making things wore than they are already .
