Get a grip on reality please
Local Hero | Thu, 2006-04-20 09:03
You are sounding hysterical.
The Today paper is a rag and the vast majority of people here would agree with that term. The editorial DOES NOT reflect the views of the population. Several thousands of people dissapear in the US every year, several more thousands are beaten, many in hate crimes. This is the first case that we know of here and was clearly committed by a few ignorant moronic s**theads, to generalise the population of the island as thinking the same is shameful and absolutely ridiculous.
I would be surprised if the Today paper lasts more than a few more months.
Also, the population are also well aware of the failings of the police force, we live with them daily. This is the main issue here in this case and we want it fixed too.
Get a grip.
