"It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.Comment

Two Totally Different Effort
Peter, I just remembered that I didn’t reply to your post, as I intended to back in late September.Originally posted by Peter R View Post
This Jamaican ghetto lady at the vending machine effort is, like you correctly said, indeed stupidness (lol)! Like crude quasi-ghetto behavior in general, this vending machine episode is not funny at all. On the contrary, it can be embarrassing!
On the other hand, the Ludlow Peynado effort is successful satire of a very real social problem. It is genuinely funny, but not stupid, and the issue it addresses is certainly a real social problem in Jamaica. The creators of this work succeeded, in my view, at making us laugh at a serious issue. It is not all that different from what icons like Miss Lou and Ranny Williams used to do so effectively.
Just my two cents, boss.

The Irony of It All
Isn’t it ironic that the country which produced probably the single most influential black-pride leader of the 20th century is now producing, in hordes, people who are ashamed of their blackness.
Goes with my oft repeated theme that “Jamaica is a paradox”!

Not to mention others like Michael Manley (paradox?) and a whole barrage of entertainers who were proud of their blackness.

If unuh want see paradox check the criteria for JLP leadership that Holness claims he is confronted with. Come to think of it is this a 'paradox' or 'par for the course'.Comment
