Opposition votes NO to anti gang law.

You would think that a country with a gang problem would manage to create anti-gang legislation. You would think that nothing and nobody would be standing in the way of these laws that target the organised criminals who kill between 300-500 people every year in a country of 1.3 million people. But in Trinidad and Tobago you'd be wrong. In Trinidad and Tobago the opposition voted no. And they used a ridiculous excuse that they didn't agree with this or that and that the sunset clause's time frame(a specific expiration date for the law) went one step too far so they voted no to the whole package.
The opposition wanted 18 months the Government about 4 years.
Nobody in their right mind believes that the Gang problem will be solved in 18months, 4 years or even 10 years so that sunset clause is obsolete and could only have came from a questionable and probably ignorant mindset of politicians who cannot think creative. Politicians who behave like sheep. All the while people are dying, being shot, robbed etc. and gangs are extorting businessmen and those who refuse to pay get bullets. But the political class lives comfortably in gated communities and enjoying state security at tax payers expense. They also receive tax payer funded smartphones, laptops, transportation (Toyota Prado or a allowance), phone bills, utilities etc.
This intentional failure of the opposition will cause deaths or at best won't do anything to reduce them. They should be ashamed of themselves. But like a pig rolling in mud they are happy. Life is good.
Keep Steemin.
