Police & Gunmen Trade Bullets in Downtown Kingston | TVJ News

Good work by the police but i would rather see these gunmen get the cold room temp

The crime rate in Jamaica for such a small country is appalling. This has been a normal thing since the 70s. There has never been a "better time" in Jamaica, it's always been guns, violence, and drugs.

[@glorialouiise]

The same drugs they have is legal in other countries.

[@PatrickEvans-x1v]

Badmen and gunmen are idolized in Jamaica.

[@mawbeautiful881]

Jamaica urgently needs mandatory minimum sentencing as soon a possible. In the USA, Canada and many other countries there is mandatory sentencing if a person shoots at or kills a police officer in the line of duty. These low life punks in Jamaica are way too brazen and need to be shown who is boss by the Security forces.

You are why more and more shootings are happening, nobody is boss over anyone. This is a free will life blch

[@cloviscameron7233]

What is the use of mandatory sentences it wornt make any difference, what would be the point of passing down these sentences just for the killing of law inforcement officers, at least those officers are armed and are in a position to defend themselves,but what about innocent people who are going abroad there normal day to day business and are gunned down in cold blood??))) There is only one solution to this problem and is to declare Jamaica 🇯🇲 a Republic and brake away from the British crown then we as an independent nation will be able to make our own laws ,and hopefully that will prevent those murderous and nasty gunmen from appealing to the privacy council in the UK after they have been found guilty and sentence to death for their hideous and vile crimes.

[@sleec3643]

Well you first need to revisit the existing criminal law books, supported by a real police force and enforcement . Funny how people want to be rid of the Queen's sovereignty, but none of it has anything to do with law & order

[@dawnstanley5941]

For a small country to be flexing their muscles openly with no regards for anyone is barbaric. These culprits should be taken off the streets for good.

[@dentonbrown6836]

@@davidscott3726 Jamaica is a small country. The United States is a total different beast. No country should try to emulate America when it relates to guns. Guns are not made in Jamaica and they don't have this 2nd amendment. Reading is VERY important 👌

[@JeremiaszCzeresniowiecki]

The USA is the worst example to follow because none of well developed countries have such a big crime rate and imprisonment rate.

[@JeremiaszCzeresniowiecki]

All countries from that region need to have a common policy to extirpate the problem of organised crime. They need to get money for this goal not only by themselves but also from the US (it's in their interest to not have problems with things like drug trafficking) and create strong institutions against corruption, criminality and build a state of law and a fair justice system. My country, Poland, in the beginning of the 90s looked like Venezuela now but after getting support from the EU, we solved this problem. Mafia bosses got caught and the problem of brutal organised crime doesn't exist anymore. Of course, they are some criminality but it's rather about VAT scammers or drug dealing. However, Poland is one of the safest countries in Europe, crime rates are much lower here than in France, Sweden, UK or Germany. Not to mention countries from other parts of the world.

I say it and I will continue to say it, if Jamaica don’t sure up their borders, then these little gun finds aren’t going to make any dent in the gun for drug trade.Every boat going in and out of Jamaica should be checked. If we can’t do it ourselves, then we need to ask for overseas help. I commend the Security forces, but if this is not done along with extremely stricter laws, especially for smugglers, murders, rapist, etc…. We’ll be fighting a loosing battle.

[@cloviscameron7233]

We are kidding ourselves as Jamaicans if we can't see where all these violent gun crimes that is happening in our society is stems from. We shouldn't have to look very farr to our neighbour which is less than 400 miles away from our shore whose capital is Washington DC .they are hell bent on spreading violent culture not just in Jamaica but the entire globe l,and we all should be aware of this by now.

[@cloviscameron7233]

I suppose when you say asked for help from overseas you mean Britain and America???))) You don't get it, it's because of them why we are having these gunmen running around like wild DOGS committing these vile crimes you see the the hands of the law inforcers in Jamaica are tied which means that they are unable to preformed their task for which they were trained for. As we have seen in the past especially at the end of the 70s and the beginning of the 80s when gun crimes were rampant in Jamaica and when the government at the time tried to suppress the violence there were a corus of condemnation coming from the United Kingdom and the United States they were accusing the government that were in power at the time of human rights abuse and they show sympathy for the victims ((((does anyone remember the gun count))))))??????.
