| Message | We applaud this legislation as well as the apparent dedication the TNP has to ensuring the safety of ALL our citizens. Michael Garrish Chairman Democratic Capitalist Delegation |
| Date | 05:03:06, September 09, 2009 CET | From | Revolutionary Congress | To | Debating the Public Safety Act |
| Message | We believe that this Bill will only embolden criminals. Criminals will have the upper hand in our society simply because they will more than likely always out gun the police whenever they encounter them. All of our policemen should be trained to use and carry standard firearms. Unfortunately we don't live in a Utopian society we must take pragmatic measures to tackle the challenges we face today and tomorrow. |
