  1. Donna, One of these days you will stop calling Gaston name in your mouth. Are you obsessed with him? He has his wife. If it fails to rain, it is Gassy…If the lighting flashes, it is Gassy. If your period is late, it is Gassy. Let us use this forum for constructive remarks. It seems like you were a rejected stone. No other reason you should be so sick about a man who is just that. A MANNNNNN. Foolish dunce woman

  2. Gassy money ran out, so the gangs started up again. The PM needs to walk through the town during the day, and he will see the number of young and older men hanging outside of Paradise Casino on Lower Market Street across from Papa Bird Statue. I saw them myself in the morning, and the crowd got larger in the afternoon around 4:00 p.m. St John’s city is so filthy especially the gutter drains. Why not the PM give them a job to keep the city clean?

  3. What is this world coming to all now nobody know who killed the spanish girl who killed the father and son at shanty town who killed the guy behind stadium the girl at the beach🥺🥺 what a crisis antigua

  4. Crimes,there are none in Antigua. Why are all those gun crimes happening in Villa Area.I lived in Villa Area many moons ago.Back then the Area was cleaned and well kept.I went there last year and could not believe that was my VILLA AREA. THE PLACE LOOKED RUN DOWN.There were bushes all over the place and trash every where.

  5. Wait. So a man get shot and two women worrying about the prime ministers “front”? Ok. Interesting. Anyway I hope the boy pulls through.

  6. I heard the bullet,and I knew something happened things really are changing we never had these activities in our areas..been awhile

  7. These days it’s not even enemies that shoot you it’s friends,I speak to my children every chance I get about this world and how it has changed

  8. What is clear is that we have too many illegal guns in circulation and people are lead into resolving conflicts by bringing these illegally guns into play. It is a frightening reality of life in Antigua and Barbuda today. Guns seem to be everywhere.

  9. Don’t worry the wanted shooter’s Dad is probably checking all the balances in his different bank accounts to sort out lawyer fees and will bring him in with the lawyer soon..

  11. @Weeping and Gnashing of Teeth: since you know the first two post was by the same person, why don’t use your real name punk? what kind of disorder is this?

  12. While talking to folks on the street it’s been said that this shooting is as a result of a turf war between Junior Brown Gang and their rival. It’s also been said that Junior Brown is a supplier of guns and ammo as a middle man for the middle easterners.

  13. @ Bugsy I must concur with you. Years ago Villa was the epitome of a place where finding somewhere to move into was like hitting the jackpot. It was clean and very well kept. Now there are abandoned houses with overgrown bushes. Abandoned cars and garbage every where. And to think that this is the Prime Minister’s constituency. As the saying goes Clean up your back yard before you go looking I to ones front yard.
