If this were true I’d feel perfectly safe in south (born and grown) and central (currently residing). The hot spot ting don’t work anymore

Joe, South is not far from laventille pnm behaviour and as just as bad.

San Do is one big PNM ghetto

Where exactly? I know about Embacadere, around Olera Heights and most of Pleasantville.

Sando not sooo bad but you have a point. It's the businesses that keeping the city alive.

If you have to gamble, south safer but gangs keep increasing.

[pugboy]

it ain’t exactly safer
they leave morvant laventille in convoys to do home invasions all over south

These are some random suspects I got from a Google search:

He returned fire, hitting one of the suspects, a 20-year-old man from Aranguez.
https://newsday.co.tt/2024/03/13/suspec ... n-wounded/

The driver, a 40-year-old labourer, of 5th Street Charles Street, Gasparillo was arrested while another vehicle was intercepted, and several stolen items were found in the occupants' possession. The driver of that car, a 30-year-old labourer of St. Barbs Road, Laventille, and a 34-year-old passenger of Carli Bay, Couva, were arrested. Officers of the South Western Division Task Force also responded and arrested a 35-year-old labourer, of Sea View Drive, Cap De Ville, Point Fortin, who was seen running away from the vehicle.

The suspect, who resides in Santa Cruz, is currently detained at the Woodbrook Police Station, assisting WPC Hosein who is leading enquiries into the report of robbery with violence.

The police were notified and launched an investigation which led to the arrest of David Seetahal, 18, Nathan Narine, 19, Roger Samlal, 29, and Daniel Martinez, 35, all of Hermitage Settlement, South Trinidad as well as Antonio Suchit, 21, and Kern Murrell, 40, of Arouca.

Let's just say some spots hotter than others.
Claiming the entire country is a hot spot is trying to save face for the actual hot spots as listed in travel advisories.
To claim otherwise is akin to when a PNM minister some decades ago said 'all ah we thief'

Habit 7 could continue arguing with the other politics posters In here. I'm not here to argue politics just facts.

AfroTrinidadians are twice as represented in prison than their share of the general population.
Afro Trinidadians are more than twice as represented in murder victims than their share of the population.
Apart from the US state department tier 3 warning for the country, highlighting certain areas the Gortt has always known that certain communities are more crime prone to the point in 2007 they commissioned a study which was continued in 2015.

The original hotspots and the 2015 hotspots below.

For some perverse reason he rather "all lives matter" the shid out of this issue than deal with the reality......something is not right with young African males in certain communities in this country. That those communities are PNM probably is his peeve however the first step in fixing something is knowing something is wrong.

It's not poverty since the poorest region of TT is Toco Sangre Grande and they are not a hot spot. Apart from that Port of Spain has no greater share of poverty than other areas of the country.

Thompson Gardens is a PNM hood and anywhere that have HDC pnm houses.

But all in all, South Afros are far better that North afros.

Habit7 issue is UNC fail to agree on PNM crime bills.

Last time I checked, PNM in charge, and they free to use all the present laws to rid this country of the gangs that they created.

Come election and PNM will employ songs from 6, 7 and 9.

[pugboy]

they always pull out the poverty excuse
but whilst the young gang workers doing the dirty work of robberies and home invasions may be under poverty
the majority of the gang itself and the gang bosses certain live well with their vast jewellery

Mero knows how crime works. He openly supports the culture of crime.

All these crimes lead back to PNM.

According to this article an AR retails for between 30-40k and they blaming poverty. I wish I was poor enough to afford that.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

I remember when the pundit claimed that east Indians were being targeted etc....everybody wanted to kill him....

Then roget said : "The majority of persons we see committing crimes are young black men".....not a man move...

Rowley said in 2019" African people are not doing as well as we would like and this may have a connection to our crime issue".....not a word from anyone

But men in here behaving like people just casting negative aspersions just so....carry on stupidly....

[zoom rader]

As u can see figures from the UK, where its mostly a white police force.

Uk blacks are around 2.5million and whites are 49million

Then again trinidad does not have white officers.

As Habit said trini afro are 37%

So what's the problem

[pugboy]

so in uk those race stats are widely available
but it’s a big open secret here
just like they no longer publish top sea students names

Gents, just remember, When PNM in oppostion:

However, when PNM in Goverment:

It is easy to claim the PNM is responsible for the invdividual independent actions of free citizens. But the PNM is the majority of the Legislation. PNM is a policy and law maker. The only thing they can do is create policy and law. If the new laws to target the new reality of crime keeps either being restricted or watered down by other legislators, you are denying the reality. There is obviously one entity that will benefit from crime being tackled and there is another that thinks they benefit for the situation being bad.

But you have to play your role as a mindless PNM hater. And I have to play my role a logical PNM Cockroach

Looks like a typo. Fixed it for you.

I don't think anybody here is denying that Afro Trini men have a disproportionate involvement in crime. You are creating a strawman.

What is being responded to are responses to fixing the problem like this:

Racial profiling of PNM ghetto youths, stop and search, beat they Mother C**t

Habit7 need to report back to his employers that black youths need to be targeted via stop and search, questioned what they doing in certain injun areas.

How come at least 98% of the victims of home invasions are east Indians, Chinese or Syrians?

But here in Trinidad, how many more East Indian and Chinese lives have to be victims of crime at the hands of Africans until we can get justice? Or is that question too racist because that is not an issue?

PNM Africans ara lawless, every time PNM in power its like they do what they want.

Now PNM is not going to pull that elimination trigger because they want afros dumbed down and beholden to the party.

gps all black men and crime done.

You cannot fight crime with racial discrimination. Yes, you can make targeted approaches to deal with the socio-economic influences that may shape Afro Trini men to commit more crimes. But to profile one particular ethnicity as the source of crime is illegal, if it is done systematically it will cause any criminal charge to be thrown out in court, T&T will be treated as an apartheid nation and the majority of the protective services are Afro Trini as well so they are not going to implement racism on themselves.

We have to solve our crime problem as one ppl not as divided ethnic groups. There are other Caribbean countries with >80% Afro descendants and don't have this level of crime. While there are Latin American countries with <10% Afro and have more crime than any Caribbean country. So we cannot make the error of correlation without causation. There are other factors that play a role such as urbanisation, poverty, education, the drug trade and others. Being racist about crime in T&T doesn't' solve the problem. It just makes Trinituner the outlet for some to come and spew their racism in anonymity then go back IRL and boast they are not racist because of how many Black friends they have.

Afro Trinidadians are more than twice as represented in murder victims than their share of the population.

So then how could the argument that Indo Trinis are being targeted make sense? Is it that innocent Afro Trinis deserve to be murdered because their own did it to them and they obviously were involved in something? And innocent Indo Trinis when murdered are truly innocent, unlike Afro Trinis? This is the mess we create when many ppl here in this thread and in the country inject race. "Afro Trinis are the majority victims but let's pay attention to the minority victims because the Afros kinda deserve it." Rather, how about we deal with the problem as a whole and forget race?

Like you, I am also dealing with facts and I cited the CoP referencing a Uni of Cambridge study that showed there are 188 hotspots throughout the country https://www.guardian.co.tt/article-6.2. ... 36bb814b0f . Crime cannot be solved by locking down Laventille and Diego Martin, killing business, ppl's constitutional freedom of movement, making angst and social decay worse and then thinking the rest of the country is fine. It was tried in the 2012 SoE and it failed. Just like how treating with crime cannot be isolated to one ethnicity, it cannot be isolated to one location.

And if you think my view is PNM, MP Paray agrees with me too https://tt.loopnews.com/content/mayaro- ... me-hotspot although nowadays he is persona non grata to the UNC, Kamla calls him a PNM, all while they rent their HQ from him.

[Dizzy28]

As I say I'm not here to argue politics of it nor the solutions ...that's not in my forte.

I'm merely disputing the "all the country" is a hotspot theory.

These are the very black youths and their family that continue to support PNM

People fail to see the PNM is racist towards African people, they just don't care if another youth is gunned downed.

Harsh measures to save the my Africa people are needed.

Well are either going to hold the view that crime only impacts you when you are in a certain location by an individual of a certain ethnicity and if it happens outside that you have to demand they stop because they are cheating.

Or we deal with it holistically.

I prefer holistically.

But even if you want to list five or six hotspots that you want to lockdown, send the might of state protective services and crush crime, they can only do so with the legislation to back them. The CoP says so herself in the Newsday article. How can these lockdowns work when the bills with the requisite authority to do what you are advocating are shut down by the UNC? We can't avoid that fact.

Talking race gets the small-minded racists excited but talking about actual legal policy is boring to them.

Stop spinning

PNM in charge, and they are running the country.

They have all means necessary to fix crime.

My African people are at the bottom of the ladder, and PNM sits by and does very little.

Remember when Candace Scott, 23, and Karen Sa Gomes, 31, in 1994. White people from west morning was killed some years by a home invasion of how the PNM reacted ?

They went straight in and hanged Glen Ashby from unrelated murder to show the public they were doing something about crime.

Did PNM need UNC support back then?

Gunmen force two-month halt on Brechin Castle solar project

FOR 20 years, nothing happened on the open lands between the Sir Solomon Hochoy Highway near Couva, and the Point Lisas Industrial Estate, on Trinidad’s west coast.
The sweeping expanse was once sugarcane plantations on the estates of Brechin Castle, Basta Hall and Exchange.

That ended with the closure of the industry in 2003, and the fields became savannahs, and a sandpit.

But in April 2023, the area came alive again after being selected as the ideal site for a solar farm.

Project Lara was hailed as Trinidad and Tobago’s first industrial-scale solar farm project with 112 megawatts (MW) of solar generation to be added to the country’s energy grid.

The project was to be located on two sites, Brechin Castle in Couva, and Orange Grove, Tacarigua.

However, president of bpTT David Campbell confirmed to Express Business in January that construction of the proposed solar farm at Orange Grove would not proceed as planned as the Cabinet had decided to use the land for another purpose.

With this change, Energy Minister Stuart Young said that the government was assessing whether the site at Brechin Castle could be further expanded as part of this country’s solar generation efforts.

But now the Brechin Castle site has been hit with security concerns.

For nearly a year after Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley officially turned the sod for the construction of the utility-scale solar plant, preparatory work was underway at the Brechin Castle site.

The area was bulldozed, and infrastructure was installed to provide a support system for transmitting high-voltage electricity from the solar farm to power stations for distribution.

Trouble on the lands

However, two months ago, gunmen entered the jobsite and threatened workers.

The Express Business was told that the source of the threats came from the community of Pranz Gardens, a crime hotspot where, in 2010, India-based Essar Steel Caribbean Ltd (ESCL) abandoned a $12 billion project, after sustained resistance from the community.

Alarmed by what had happened, the players involved pulled their personnel and heavy machinery off the site, and begged for protection.

Residents of Pranz Gardens and Phoenix Park spoke with the Express Business openly about the work stoppage after the gunplay, and said it was in the interest of the fence line communities, which are all low-income areas.

At a site visit on Monday afternoon, the Express Business observed that work had resumed on at least three locations, with work crews seen fencing the perimeter, under the watchful eye of armed police officers located at check points on the project site.

Residents said there were also nightly police patrols in the area, with some officers assigned extra duties to secure the site.

The main entrance to the site is located at Coco Road, leading to the Estate Management and Business Development Company Ltd (EMBD) sand quarry in Claxton Bay.

Two Tuesdays ago, while working on the story, Express Business spoke with Young regarding the matter.

Although Young did not confirm the incident, he noted that work was expected to resume.

Employ us

Interviews with residents last week revealed that there was no resistance to the solar farm by those living in the nearby communities.

But there was one condition—that jobs would be provided to residents in fence line communities.

A month ago, residents staged a protest near the main gates leading to the administrative offices overseeing the project.

The residents claimed that despite going through the application and screening process not one of them had been hired.

Residents argued that it was unfair that a project of that magnitude was taking place in their backyard and no jobs were available.

Following the protest, Pointe-a-Pierre Member of Parliament David Lee met with officials from bp Alternative Energy Trinidad and Tobago on the matter.

Project Lara is a joint venture comprised of multi-national energy giants bp Alternative Energy Trinidad and Tobago (bpATT) and Shell Renewables Caribbean, and specialist solar energy company Lightsource bp.

The National Gas Company (NGC) is also a 30% equity investor in the project.

In an interview with the Express last week, Lee said residents were feeling slighted that no work was being offered to them by the company.

“I reached out to bp and we held a meeting with key activists who were asking for jobs. Residents were told that the ongoing work was more labour intensive,” he said.

Lee noted that 19 residents were employed at the site, following that meeting, with a promise that more jobs would be offered as the work expanded.

Contacted for comment on the issue the consortium Brechin Castle Solar Ltd chose a “no comment” to questions about the threats.

The scope of the project

A year before the project was launched, a YouTube video was released targeting the fence line communities.

The video narrated by Francis Mann, business development manager at Lightsource bp, consisted of an overview of the project highlighting key information, and a live question and answer segment.

Back then, residents were informed that job fairs would be held in the fence line communities for local employment and contractors.

A website was also established detailing the project.

An agreement with the government was reached in December 2022, which enabled consortium partners to reach Final Investment Decision (FID) to commence construction on the project, with bp and Shell initially having joint shareholdings.

Construction commenced in third quarter 2023, and was expected to be operational in mid-2025.

“We firmly believe that renewable energy, including solar, is the key to addressing the dual challenge, creating more energy while reducing emissions and combatting climate change. For a decade we at Lighthouse bp have been committed to making sure that all our projects designed and developed supports the national businesses and community way into the future,” Mann said.

Mann said the approximately 240 hectares of land borders the communities of Savonetta, Pranz Gardens, Claxton Bay, Phoenix Park and Esperanza.

The solar panels, he said, will convert this energy from the sun into electricity with support from the Trinidad and Tobago Electricity Commission (T&TEC).

He said the panels would be non-toxic and fully recyclable.

Initially, the project was expected to be completed and connected to the grid in ten months.

The phases include site preparation, fencing, clearing work, transport of components to the site, installation of structures then the solar panels, installation of transmission towers and poles and connection to power stations and finally connection to the national grid.

Speaking at the sod turning ceremony in April 2023, Rowley said the project was a statement in joining the world’s effort in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and placing the country’s future on the ability to extract solar power and drive our economy to sell products made by hydrocarbons with some element of green input.




Pests resembling UNC voters from a UNC hotspot sabotaging the country's development.

[Habit7]

When criminals with illegal guns kill each other over turf or mashing someone's Jordans no one cares, cuz let's be real they're actually doing the job of the police who has failed. AR-15 toting youths killing other AR-15 toting youths means less AR-15s on the street.
When innocent people get killed or are victims of home invasions it hits closer to home for law abiding citizens.
That's why although the majority of inmates are black people complain of crime against indos. It has nothing to do with race except for those who are looking for a scapegoat to blame while ignoring the massive elephant in the room

This year thus far, how many incidents of mass shootings have we had? We had the shooting in Harpe Place, the shooting in Mayaro, the shooting in Cocoyea. How many of those ppl murdered were AR-15 toting youth or normal ppl going about their daily activity when someone murdered them in cold blood? Any of those shootings were some Black supremacists going to a predominantly Indo community and shooting random ppl as a hate crime? No. Having a family member lost due to a mass shooting is just as hurtful as being murdered in a home invasion.

We are all under siege, knowing the ethnicity of my murderer doesn't bring me peace and solace. You can say it has nothing to do with race and then preach race.

The elephant in the room is what good is it to identify that a disproportionate number of Afros in the jail, but when legislation to tap the phones of inmates who are planning hits from prison in the form of the Interception of Communications Bill, UNC votes no.
Or use CCTV witness statements to protect their lives in the form of the Evidence Amendment Bill, UNC votes no.
Or the Bail Amendment Bill to restrict bail on certain criminal offences, guess how the UNC voted?

You see, we can play the victimhood game all you like. Nobody is denying that Afro Trini men disproportionately commit crime, we all are the victims of that. But when we want to come up with solutions and deal with the problem, criminal Afro Trini men have their strongest advocate in the Parliament with the UNC. That is the elephant in the room.

[alfa]

Tap the phones off those in prison? Why they even have phones in prison? I understand that the UNC haven't supported certain bills but crime in it's basic form was always illegal and you don't need bills to combat open crime. Did you even watch the vid that shakes referred to, with the Christmas or Christ mas whatever fella? These lil hood rats coming out on YouTube for the world to see with weapons a small militia might have and we're here taking about UNC not supporting bills, broken windows and the judiciary steups. They supposed to drone strike they MC on suspicious of domestic terrorism.

The police could easily identify them but they're still waking and presumably shooting. Even if the police are to lazy to do their jobs you telling me Heinz and Erla didn't see the video and the type of weapons they have? They could direct the police and army to swoop down on them and don't tell me that's not within their powers cuz Jack Warner did it with the army and kublalsingh camp. The reason they can show their faces openly on camera is because they know what I'm saying is true. If this was a developed country they would be in jail already, if this was China, Russia or the ME that would be hanging from a crane. But in sweet t and t they live to shoot another day but the problem is whistleblower legislation and lack of opportunities, slavery and Babylon, take your pick

Until then I will continue to believe that PNM is deliberately protecting criminals either for votes or some of them may actually be Erla/Heinz/Rowley nephews, family or family friends
