He violated the law and should suffer the consequence. Oops! I forgot this was the kind of stuff that happened since Burnham days. He is a big shot VIP.

But the H2SO4 (sulphuric acid)in the rounds, SHF, won’t it explode at extreme pressure, regardless of who fetching the gun?

In my opinion I don’t even think Dr. Narine’s briefcase was checked. I am at the CJIA very often and could tell you that many times the VIP scanner is left unmanned. Trust me I have witnessed it over and over again.
Yet it is every licensed individual’s duty to remember safety rule xiv.
Thus said no excuse to the doctor.

these are the type of people that are easy targets for the criminals. this man seems not to have been trained in the handling of a firearm. most people in guyana that have permits only got them because of contacts and thats about it. i remember some years age and license firearm holder was trying to get his gun to apprehend a thief and shot himself in the foot. the thief got away.

Mr. Hackett…i believe its the air Marshalls that are allowed to carry their weapons on board….but that’s for safety

You leave out back ground check both local and overseas. A lot of them returning home did bad things while out of Guyana, and return home for a free ride under the PPP/C. The criminals and the criminal offence is very important to one carrying a firearm. However, thats for the police and the PPP/C.

he has a license, it’s not illegal.
the criminals don’t have a license, do you understand the difference, use common sense before you write trash.

Mr. Man – My comment got you attention …that’s good! Now tell me this – when did it became legal for passengers (with the exception of pilots and Air Marshals) to carry ammo on flights? To classify this serious breach of security as a “genuine mistake” is like a passenger who was caught with cocaine in his/her luggage claiming in court that the taxi driver packs the suitcase. Would you classify that as a genuine mistake? And mind you… someone did use that excuse in court. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Now tell me: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A “GENUINE MISTAKE” and a “SERIOUS MISTAKE” when it comes to ammo or cocaine being found in a passenger luggage. I anxiously look forward to your response.

Stabroek News your moderation policy is beginning to seem strange.You are allowing personal abuse from an angry Mr Man while refusing to print a couple of innocuous remarks from me a couple of weeks ago.

How so very funny! Green has the nerve to say it was a mistake. All the people the police arrest at the airport should say their offences were mistakes too. See how he would deal with that.

Political patronage and cronyisn, ‘is alive and well’in this administration, and this is reflected in this serious breach of security procedures – with international implications.

This incident, is so reminiscent of Burnham’s undemocratic and dictatorial regime, when party thugs, hit squads, operatives and those with political connections to the PNC and ‘the big ones’, carry firearms randomly, in many instances outside the rule of law.

Ironically, the above situation was perpetrated in numerous instances, as a result of a phone call to some ‘big one’.

Violation of the rule of law, is so characteristic of both the PPP and PNC administrations; blurring, any genuine excuse of an error, especially, by those connected to these two political parties and administrations.

Pilots are allowed to carry firearms. With H2SO4 in the rounds I guess.

Well Sandhurst, you know how it is in GT, “Who gyeh money gyeh bargain.” So whether he knew that the rounds could’ve exploded, endangering innocent lives or not, NOTHING substantial will come out of it. I could also say if it were another LICENCED firearm holder, e.g. Mr Arokium made a similar mistake he’d have been imprisoned IMMEDIATELY. It’s just one of the realities of the PPP/C controlled system.

It’s nice to know that research can & has been done to show how these “mistakes” are dealt with in countries where the LAW abides. Sadly, in our homeland, the laws are manipulated by those who have the ‘power’ to do so. I wonder what would’ve been the outcome if it were a lesser known doctor, without certain connections & numbers to call!?!?!
