St. Maarten Private Eye

Thank you Larry but I want to clarify the issue as it seems that either I can write or the readers do not understand the issue. It is all about the future of this island. We want to become a country but our attitude need to change. The right of expression is a fundemental right and we need to show respect for one another. The towing is the reason for the incident but it had to happen this way in order to expose the abuse and misuse of power by those in powers. A fax was enough to clear the issue but Sirian saw it fit to use the powers bestow upon him in a wrong way. He threatened to detain me. I wonder based on what grounds he would have detained me. I was in my lawyers office when he called me and told me that my attitude irritates him and if I do not release the car he would detain me. This means that not even legal counseling is possible. These are the issues and not the towing but the small minds in this society are there for the "melee" and not for the facts or the truth.
I wrote a letter to the editor and mailed the letters to two major newspapers on the island. Apparently only Today received the letter and not the Daily Herald. I resent them the letter this morning. What have me so concern is also that the media in this case the Todays Paper only print what the editor finds important to relay to the people. Due to his interpretation the fault is of the towing companies and not the department of Justice. 3 years ago the Public Proscutors Office receive a complaint against Mr. Tony Rogers for "another towing incident" . Dont you think that within the 3 year span they could not have developed some rules and regulation in order to control the towing business? These are the questions that should be asked. I have shown my pile of letters to the editor of the Today and still his reporting is so bias.
Again as usual on this island it is easy to condemn the messenger and not the message. I am discussing this issue as a citizen and not as a politician. As a matter of fact I do not intent to be part of the political process. I do not see the reason why he has to mention that in this particular issue. I will continue with the issue because I want to prevent that whatever happens to me happens to other innocent citizens on this island.
