  1. Aparte from the already known, well aired concerns of the general public, KM, our ‘distinguished’ journalist failed to address what should really be our #1 fear did not receive a single sentence in this rambling. Sure, everybody loves a piece of melee. Is the alleged offender a close relative of a police officer? Was the weapon in question the property of the alleged police officer, or the property of the Government. Was this another staged event in light of the Government’s much applauded efforts to normalize living conditions here by attempting to deal with the growing threat of gang violence especially among our school age youth and the prevalence of illegal weapons among us? Was the situation last Friday a staged attempt to throw water on the initiatives and efforts of the government by idle, mischievous criminal-minded adults? With all the chattering and yapping, I was hoping that this erudite contributor would have been able to report whether or not the alleged weapon was ever retrieved. If, in fact, the alleged weapon has yet to be located, that revelation could open a can of worms and should scare us all to hell!
