My sincere condolences to the family of the young Canadian man that died a violent death. My heartfelt sorrow escalates each and every time such a tragic crime occurs in Jamaica, be it perpetrated against a citizen or foreign visitor.
So many people have worked so hard for so long to build a Nation that people from all over the world should be able to visit in peace and safety.
Many of us on this board can sense the devastating consequences of such horrid acts of wanton violence. Many of us, I am sure worry for our Jamaican friends, be it for their livelihood and/or their safety and well being. Many of us are questioning how safe we really are when we visit our beloved Jamaica.
Godspeed to the Jamaican people in their efforts to eradicate such violent senseless crimes.
May the resolve of the Jamaican people be strong and united in their fight against such senseless acts.
