  1. What took you guys this long? under age drinking on a whole should be looked at seriously, since this not only happens at fetes, but at all these village Jouvert not forgetting labor day heading to Fort. Let’s see how long these implementations lost.

  2. Nine and ten year old smoking weed!
    Cause the government sanctions it!
    The chickens have come home to roost!
    It’s too late!
    He of a high place!
    We have lost a generation!
    It’s totally your fault!
    How many grams and how many trees??
    Hmm

  3. This is pathetic. So many children sneak out and end up at these shows. Nowadays children look like big people. KFC have their breasts and body huge so a 13 year.old looks like a 20 year old. I guess they need an ID. But with AI even that can be faked

  4. We don’t have a national ID. However, how would a promoter(s) knows they are minors. Right now, some of these minors (teens) looks Twenty-one and older.
