**Christie and Nottage need to get off their high horses, pull their heads out of their backsides, accept they don't know what they are doing, and ask Trinidad Tabago what to do!**

@ SP.....I don't believe that we need to ask any other country for advice. I believe our "Leaders", and I use that term loosely--with no sincere respect, need to take charge of the situation by being proactive and more determined to take control of the crime issue in this country. We sit back as a people and complain about their BS and lack of strategy seemingly toward every issue...however, we as a people refuse to make a non-hypocritical stance against the mediocre and duplicitous manner in which they run this country.

**Not only does the political-landscape in this country need an overhaul, but so does the mindset of its people---we must STOP being Politically-Tribal, and demand practical--country oriented individuals and decision making; rather than the scandal riddled carousel of governments.
