Comm. Gary Griffiths Shows How To Handle Know Nothing Critics And Politicians…

THIS PUBLICATION SALUTES COMMISSIONER GRIFFITHS FOR SPEAKING OUT IN DEFENSE OF HIS MEN AND WOMEN, BUT MORESO HIS COUNTRY, AGAINST THE COMPLICIT POLITICAL CLASS.

Every sin­gle senior offi­cer of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF), and the (JDF) Jamaica Defense Force, who have ever been appoint­ed Commissioner of Police, have, with­out a doubt, been ful­ly con­ver­sant that the Islands Politicians are respon­si­ble for the crime sit­u­a­tion in our country.

This is not hyper­bol­ic lan­guage designed to inflame pas­sions against the Islands politi­cians. There has been ample evi­dence through­out the decades that politi­cians shield­ed crim­i­nals from law­ful arrest and pros­e­cu­tion. That Politicians cre­at­ed the envi­ron­ment for crim­i­nal con­duct à la the cre­ation of gar­risons. That Politicians ush­ered want­ed crim­i­nals, (includ­ing cop-killers out of the coun­try to freedom.That Politicians secured visas for crim­i­nals mak­ing it impos­si­ble for the police to find and arrest dan­ger­ous crim­i­nals. That Politicians dis­trib­uted guns and ammu­ni­tion to oth­er crim­i­nals. That the same politi­cians who are the law­mak­ers are the law­break­ers. That Politicians actu­al­ly pay to have oppo­nents mur­dered. That politi­cians award con­tracts to crim­i­nals. That politi­cians denounce the police for doing their jobs.
I could go on and on, every con­sta­ble who ever served knows this, so no senior cop can pos­si­bly claim ignorance.

Despite this, no offi­cer before or after appoint­ment to the top spot have ever had the guts, char­ac­ter, or love of coun­try, to stand up and tell the nation what the filthy cor­rupt politi­cians have been, and are doing.
Some peo­ple say ‚“well Adams did”.
Adams was nev­er Commissioner of police. Secondly, speak­ing out effec­tive­ly black­list­ed Renetto Adams in the eyes of the crim­i­nals in Gordon House. And to you vil­lage lawyers and apol­o­gists, please do not tell me that they do not decide who becomes com­mison­er of police. The ser­vice Commission is a mere rub­ber stamp to whomev­er is sit­ting in Jamaica house.

The twin-island Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, with a pop­u­la­tion of 1.369 mil­lion, well over a mil­lion few­er peo­ple than Jamaica, is not too dis­sim­i­lar to Jamaica as it relates to crime. Religious and eth­nic strife has seen even bomb­ings against the pop­u­la­tion. Murders have increased across the Republic in recent times from under a hun­dred in the 80s to well over 500 annu­al­ly today .
Like the JCF, the Trinidad and Tobago police ser­vice has been forced to deal with an esca­lat­ing crime epi­dem­ic, with across the board atti­tudes in the pop­u­la­tion which are high­ly tol­er­ant of those who com­mit crim­i­nal acts.
As it is in Jamaica, so too are the atti­tudes among the lumpen pro­le­tari­at when the police attempt to do their jobs.
With twice the pop­u­la­tion of Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica in 2017 record­ed 1616 mur­ders.
Trinidad and Tobago in 2017 record­ed 500 mur­ders. It has a mur­der rate of 30 to a 100,000 cit­i­zens, as com­pared to Jamaica’s 47 to a 100,000 cit­i­zens each year.

Those are the real­i­ties which seri­ous in-the-know law enforce­ment offi­cers like Trinidad’s Gary Griffiths have to con­tend with, unlike the lap­dogs in our coun­try who are con­tent to walk behind every lit­tle politi­cian with their tails tucked tight­ly between their legs like lit­tle mon­grel dogs.
In Jamaica the police are mere exten­sions of the dirty lttle politi­cians who are them­selves exten­sions of the stu­pid bur­joise.
So they can ill afford to open their mouths even when they know that the cor­rupt politi­cians and the media elites only love to hear them­selves talk. They say noth­ing because they are like lit­tle nuetered dogs.
Respect Commissioner Gary Griffiths!
