Why are the police harassing tourists? They were not trafficking large amount of drugs. They had personal quantities and the police see fit to waste their time on this. Tourism is what our country lives on. They come here to have fun in the sun, not be arrested for something trivial. Why didn't they just ask where they got it from and go and arrest the actual dealer. This is a waste of our tax dollars and a waste of police resources to do something that is damaging our main source of income in this country.
What does he need to apologize for? He's right, the government is more lost than that airplane. At least they actually have a chance of finding the plane.
What a joke. Why the hell are the cops harassing tourists for? The amount of time and money they spent on arresting these people and bringing them before the magistrate is so much more than what their fines were. Spend that money on solving all of the open murder cases.

This has got to be the most uninformed 'Letter to the Editor' this paper has published. Do you just let anybody write whatever they'd like?

Even if it's not taxed, right now it's costing us tens of millions. We need to stop spending money on it.
And our slowest politicians are basically standing still. So I don't have much faith that anything will actually change.
