Eye for an eye is the rule of the streets in Jamaica so be careful what you do unto others or it shall be done unto you in return.

I had an experience with some younger kids here in Jamaica. One of them is 3 and he pretty much says or does what he hears his older brothers say. At 3 he knows more about guns, violence and murder than I did when I was 15. I asked him what he did in school one afternoon and his answer was ¡°play gun games on Xbox¡± and I asked him why and he said ¡°to kill de man dem¡± and I asked how he killed them and he said ¡°with my AK dummy¡± and I asked him why he killed people and his answer was ¡°cuz every man scare da gun man¡±.

The UN and Jamaica could try their best and they can never stop the guns from reaching those who really want them. if Jamaica is to come out of this violent trend then they must start by making the gun man a less glorious figure and point out the reality of the situation. The gun man is no friend and no one to be admired. Guns and violence are tools of the oppressors and its time for Jamaica to stand up against this oppression.

THE United Nations wants the Jamaican government to institute strict gun control regulations as a means of stemming the heavy inflow of guns and ammunition into the island.

In a joint press release issued by UNICEF and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)for the Global Week of Action against Gun Violence, the UN urged all stakeholders to increase their efforts to tackle the arms flow, and embark on a social intervention drive in order to curb the high rate of armed violence that has taken over the island.
