Why do the ALP need to speak on the whaling issue? The ALP is not in power. The Ambassador to Japan needs to tell us if he got monies from the Government of Antigua for his accommodation and per diem and still got money from the Japanese for the same purpose. The Ambassador needs to tell us whether he was bribed.

Why would the police department have traffic checks in the morning during rush hour? Why were the soldiers on scene? Aren't the police officers armed? I think that was poor operational planning in the first place. I am not saying that it is wrong for the police to do traffic stops in the city. I worked a police dept in Florida and most traffic checks were done mostly at nights, on weekends, and especially on holiday weekends. The police were at a strategic location which they called squeeze lanes. Any driver going through the squeeze lanes in any direction were stopped and a crimial check would be done. Sometimes people who had DUI, outstanding warrants, suspended licenses, no insurance, illegal aliens, those with guns, iilegal drugs etc.were arrested. I commend the police department for taking such steps, but they should do this operation at a different time of day. Antiguans drivers need to be kept in chek

This is how the stop and search exercise should got, a team consist of the the following personnel eight (8) ABRPF officers, four (4) ABDF officers and two (2) ABTB Wardens. they will go all over the island and set up road block any where and stay as long as they feel it necessary and this should directed by the men on the ground

Are we now figuring out there are some serious leaks with in the RABPF?? It has been going on for time...They need to be weeded out.

THIS was such an idiotic exercise... the so called strategic points could be easily avoide by turning a block higher or lower than the check points. What you expect..don't you think black people knows how to use technology too. HAd it been the other way..it would have been said that not even a phone was used to inform friends and families.

Now I have black tint on the rear window on my car. I was told to remove it. My fiance was on the back seat breast feeding my 10 month old son. Wasn't it obvious that a well dressed mannered gentle/professi on man on his way to work with his family in the back seat need the light tint for that purpose???????

Really the take the bottom of the list to be these officers..and the soldiers with big long gun at a police search? What are we heading for war of a dictatorship??? ??

I could not have stated it any better. This was an exercise in appearing to do something and not a really serious exercise to nab the big criminals in society.

Does the cat have the tongues of the ALPites on the issue of whaling? They are frighteningly silent. Hmmmmmmmm Wonder why?

Traditional police techniques ane now antiquated and in need of review. With modern communication platforms of cell phones, texting and internet traditional stop and search can never again be as effective. The continued use of these anachronistic and archaic methods bring into question the effectivenes of the Canadian police high command who we we told would modernise the force.
A police check during the 8:00am rush hour is backward and serves no other purpose than affecting industry and commerce and productivity.
T he presence of the military is not only unnecessary but it is also illegal and clearly intended to intimidate the public at a time when our approach should be an encouragement of colloboration and partnership between civilians and our uniformed officers. This big gun show is the norm in Central and South America and need not be brought into our country. At any rate, why would we need to have soldiers with big guns during a simple traffic check during the morning rush hour? Just picture the scene if something went wrong.......... ............... .innocent motorists and onlookers could be the victims. Food for thought
