Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Wednesday | March 15, 2006

LETTER OF THE DAY - It's time for draconian measures
THE EDITOR, Sir: THE ONLY way to stop the crime and violence in Jamaica quickly is to send one very powerful message, one so powerful that it will create a perception in every 'testos-terone-driven' young man who wants to play Rambo with guns and knives..

Stop talking rubbish
THE EDITOR, Sir: RECENTLY, WHILE watching the local television news, I saw the head of the National Solid Waste Management Authority, Errol Greene, lamenting how local police officers were being sidelined by British cops in our fight against crime.


Zealous, not hypocritical
THE EDITOR, Sir: REGARDING THE letter titled 'Hypocrisy by the Church' (March 9), I respectfully rebut the opinions expressed by Ms. Carol Townsend. While there is some truth to the comments expressed there is a lot more to consider...


Home-grown solutions
THE EDITOR, Sir: LET US be candid, Jamaicans are quite fond of copying fads, trends, and supposed solutions to ongoing problems from its larger, sometimes-more-developed, neighbours.
