  3. The only way to put a stop to these killings is to execute by hanging all of the killers, according to laws of Antigua and Barbuda. It will sure make some of these idiots think twice. The culture of death needs to be ended.

  5. Pablo, my brother im still in shock. All these ppl on the block and watch the fu#$ery unfold and did nothing!!!!

  6. This is so sad just so simple. Back to execution yes but it depends on the circumstances surrounding the homicide.
