Crying For Our Children

I am amazed, I truly am.

15 innocent children have been MURDERED since the start of the year, and the silence by those who CLAIM to have their best interest at heart is DEAFENING.

The HYPOCRISY of all this is Jamaicans will come out in defense of people like Kartel, and, Buju Banton.

Adults who made certain choices and when those choices backfire Jamaicans go to the HIGHEST LEVEL in their defense.

  

Yet the voices are silent when it comes to the children. Father Ho Lung some time ago wrote an article about Lisa Hanna the Minister of Youth and Culture, and he was attacked from all corners for his opinion.

Where are those voices now?

Our Prime Minister is SILENT, the Leader of the Opposition is busy making sure he can prove that he WAS RIGHT in his actions, the Minister of National security is silent, the so called ADVOCATES for children are SILENT,and Jamaicans just continue about their business as if all is well.

Since the start of the year there have been 216 MURDERS, 15 of which were CHILDREN, and all people can do is sing the praises of the PNP or DEFEND the leader of the JLP?

SERIOUSLY?

It is very clear that Jamaica is a country that takes for granted the elderly and the young, and ANY nation which fails to recognize the value of both the elderly and the young is a nation that is bound to fail.

Hopefully at some point our children will become the PRIORITY of all, and we will at some point value their lives and think about the future we are preparing for them.

  

May these poor souls rest in peace.
