What’s life worth? In Guyana, Trinidad…?

On local hospital — and school books

Pardon today’s brevity please. Perhaps it’s some mental laziness occasioned by my “overdoing” it for my birth anniversary earlier this same week.

Yet I feel compelled to offer brief, hopefully provocative comment on a social phenomenon that’s so grim, so tragic, so unproductive to human existence. Yes, I’ll come off as somewhat “preachy” but I aim to provoke responses from parents, teachers, preachers, community leaders, attorneys-at-law; even the magistracy and judiciary. What am I going on about? It’s essentially the crime of murder!
