There is always a concern with eyewitnesses being silenced. The Bacchus case can not be compared to the Linden self inflicted killings.  This is clearly not the case with this scenario since the witnesses have the backing and protection of the afc/pnc agents, benschop, gerhard, sharma and others. But most importantly there was no physical ballistic evidence found to culpate the police. In fact the bullet fragments were determined by the foreign expert to be from non police issued guns at close quarters, the police was some distance away firing shot gun pellets in the air. Also the fact that the deceased were shot in the back indicates friendly fire from within the crowd. In the mayhem, the pnc/afc agents killed their own to further incite slow fiah mo fiah.

Lay off the cheap drugs.....

The foreign expert never determined that the bullets were from non police issued guns. Do you know what kind of guns the police were carrying on that day? The dead men were shot in the back after they were trying to run away from the police shooting at them. 

This dude has contact with the foreign experts now. He was there when the terrorists were shot. He saw everything. No need for other eye witnesses. A typical Buxtonian parasite who sides with the terrorists.

Never in my life had anything to do with Buxton or its people. Just another one of your hallucinations.

And you side with the murderers who shot the protesters in cold blood. Go figure.

And you think that police men couldnt have been issued non police weapons?

The evidence that we have is that the numerous policemen who were on the scene when the shots were fired DID NOT report that the shots came from the crowd. And they were more concerned with the protesters whop disaobeyed their orders to move than they were about apprehending those so called killers.

Druggie how come the police did not attempt to apprehend these killers IMMEDIATELY after the shots were fired and in the subsequent days?

Why did GINA go on instant attack to convey the impression that the crowds deserved to be shot at because the police "were under attack", and so such behavior was self defense?

You call yourself God but really you are a mere mortal with biases. Let us examine the facts, the video show the police at least 100 yards away from protesters and they were armed with shotguns. We have to rely on their testimony and those of other eyewitnesses in conjunction with ballistic evidence. The police heard shots fired in the crowd, this came out in the COI hearings. And this is the basis for my reasoning, not hearsay and nonsense spilled by Benschop, CaribJ and others looking to demonize the govt. Besides the police are know PNC supporters so shooting the Lindeners would not have been politically motivated, they must have feared for their lives. The police were issued with shotguns, this is what the COI determined. However the bullets do not match, and as you know, if they glove don't fit you must acquit.

Now you are speculating, coulda woulda shoulda don't cut it in a court of law. That is why the independent COI comprised of neutral members is the best way to seek closure. You are afraid that your PNC/AFC bandit buddies who did the shooting would be revealed, this is understandable since it will take some of the wind out of your sail.

Police were too afraid to try apprending anyone. Notice how the town was unruly and shut down by residents for 1 full month. You expect the police to be able to arrest anyone when mayhem was afoot and fearing for their own lives?

Druggie if the police are afraid to do their work they should quit and Rohee fired.

Guyana is no where near a violent society as are Jamaica, Trinidad, The Bahamas and many other places.  There is absolutley no way that the public in thos ecountries will accept the police not doing their jobs because "they are afraid".

Druggie in Kingston there are rocket launchers.  Where are these weapons in Guyana?   Aside from the private militias funded by your rich Indo buddies criminals in Guyana arent well equipped.

You know you need to stop embarrassing yourself by claiming that the cops were terrified but the women who were loudly cusring them were not, if you are correct that persons unknown were trying to kill them.

People escaping the gunshots were running AWAY from the police.  If the shots were fired from within the crowds they would be running TOWARDS the police and away from where the gun shots were being fired.

Druggie crack cocaine has clearly destroyed your brain.

The police were understaffed due to assurances by Sharma and the other opposition organizers of the protest that everything would be under control. But it was too good to be true as wicked ways die hard. It didn't take long for the crowd to get unruly and slow fiah mo fiah mentality to take over.  You see you have never witnessed the viciousness of those perpetuating slow fiah, in 92 and subsequent unrest  the slow fiah crew carved out a reputation for themselves, so police are well aware of their capabilities. True to form they started burning when the opposition told them that it was police that killed their brothers. Come to find out it was agents of the opposition either misfiring via friendly fire or intentionally killing their own to propagate unrest.

We heard a woman voice, however that does not indicate the true makeup of the crowd. If black police were fearful enough to kill their own kit and kin then we have to assume that they had good cause to do so given the history of pNC types in rioting. 

What "facts" are you examining? You make up your own "facts" as you go along instead of first examining the facts and then arriving at a reasonable conclusion based on the facts.

The police were not only armed with shotguns when they rushed in to break up the protest. If you were really searching for the truth, you would have stated that they also had revolvers, pistols and rifles as well as shotguns. In your rush to judgement, you are trying to relieve the police of the blame for these hideous murders by making up stupid lies.

Druggie I just realized that you are either high on crack or are making a joke of this and are only arguing for arguments sake.

If a crime is committed the role of the cops is to arrest the perps.  Three people were killed,and more injured.  The cops did nothing.

Pick one.

1.  Either the police force is grossly incoimpetent and both Rohee and the Police Commissioner pought to be fired and completely new leadership installed.

OR

2.  the police are liars terrified that these Jamaicans arent going to buy the nonsense that Ramotar is peddling and are now afraid that they might be arrested for committing a crime.  So they are covering their butts.  The problem is that as they try to save their skins they are all stepping on each other and scrambling the story.

I reference the information coming out of the COI. So far they have debunked your theory that Rhoee was telling the police to kill protesters. Second they also debunked your claim that protesters were peaceful. Third, they revealed that the police were in fear of their lives and had to retreat from the maurading rioters.

Fourth, the coi revealed that shots were emanating from within the crowd of rioters. They protested for free electricity and instead got free bullets up their craw from their own pnc/afc affiliates in the crowd.  

That is the problem, the police were not witnesses to the crime, the protesters should come forward and identify the shooters from within the crowd. However rest assured that the COI will reveal the true story.

bGURD karama can be a bitch watch your back

I'm not sure which Commission of Inquiry you're getting your "facts" from but it must be the one made up in your own head.

After you heard the Trinidadian pathologist state that the bullet fragments retrieved from the deceased were not consistent with shotgun pellets, you promptly proclaimed that the police were only using shotguns. Little did you know that the police officer who issued the arms would testify at the real COI that revolvers, pistols, and rifles were also handed out along with shotguns.

http://www.demerarawaves.com/i...linden-shooting.html

Earlier Sergeant Aubrey Bowman who issued the arms and ammunition to the seventeen ranks and an officer on July 18 state that they were issued with four .38 revolvers with six rounds each; two 9mm pistols with 17 rounds each; four FN automatic rifles with 40 rounds each; two CP riot guns with 10 cartridges each; four shotguns with 10 cartridges each; and 20 tear smoke grenades.  

Also the Acting Police Commissioner testified at the Commission of Inquiry that the police unjustifiably used lethal force against the 3 dead men. Do you even understand what that means?

http://www.demerarawaves.com/i...top-cop-brumell.html

Acting Police Commissioner Leroy Brumell on Monday stated that the use of lethal force by the police on July 18 at Linden which left three protesters dead was unjustified.

He made the statement at the opening of the hearings of the Commission of Inquiry into the shooting as the first witness to present evidence.

Brumell was questioned by Commissioner KD Knight who took the Top Cop through the lead up to the shooting and afterward.

According to Brumell, prior to the shooting he had instructed the then Division Commander Clifton Hicken to talk to the people and try to identify the leaders in order to get them to disperse. He added that he never gave any order approving the use of firearms. Brumell related that the fire order was given by Assistant Superintendent Todd.

Added to this evidence presented at the real COI in Guyana, there were several reports to news outlets by injured people who were shot by the police. They all stated that they saw the POLICE shooting them.

Brumell was not in Linden at the time of the shootings, so his testimony is not based on fact but rather perception. He is just covering his own tail in case it does turn out to be true.  He assumed that it was the police that killed the 3 protesters. Even the police themselves believed that they might have inadvertently killed their fellow PNC/AFC kin. However the ballistic evidence could not be matched to any of the police weapons and there is no evidence that revolvers were shot, only shotguns and teargas. If there is no bullet to match then police must be exonerated. No physical evidence has been discovered so far to incriminate police.   You can not convict without evidence. Where are the eyewitnesses who saw the shootings? Why are they not coming forward and involved in identifying the killers in a police lineup?

Isn't god everywhere? He sees and hears everything. Believe him.

So you are telling me then that when the people were shot the cops had left the scene so knew nothing about what happened, and had no ability to attempt to arrest the shooters.

Stop doing crack. Druggie your brand damage must be obvious even to you.

What I am telling you is that before you pass judgement on police you must have evidence. So far there is none.  The cops at the scene were more than 100 yards away from the protesters. You are implying that they were mingling in the crowd. Even the video made this evident, the police were on once side of the bridge and the protesters were on the other side. In the melee with teargas affecting visibility and the confusion with the crowd it was near impossible for police to identify the shooters without help from the crowd. Those in the crowd immediately claimed it was police without even seeing what happened, however when it came to time for the inquiry, these witnesses suddenly disappeared. 

BGurd_See - "Brumell was not in Linden at the time of the shootings, so his testimony is not based on fact but rather perception."

I can't believe that you would say something as foolish as this. Do you think that cops have to be eyewitnesses at the scene of a crime in order to solve it? Acting Commissioner Brumell is a skilled and experienced detective and he ordered an internal police investigation into the shooting after it occurred. Based on evidence presented to him at the investigation, he came to the conclusion and stated at the Commission of Inquiry that the Police used lethal force resulting in the deaths of the three men at Linden.

I already explained to you why eye witnesses are not so willing to step forward and testify before the Commission of Inquiry. Do you remember what happened to George Bacchus when he had evidence of the PPP running a Phantom Death Squad and he was scheduled to appear before the Commission of Inquiry? The murderous PPP leaders sent their hitmen and silenced him hours before he was to appear at the commission. They also gave poisined milk to another potential witness. In PPP Guyana, dead men tell no tales.  

Show me the evidence that Brumell examined to conclude that the police were guilty of the shooting! You are speculating as no such evidence has yet been revealed. The COI has not revealed that the police are guilty, the investigations are ongoing. What is significant is that the ballistic evidence examined by the foreign expert has clearly ruled out a police issued weapon or bullets involved in the shooting.  

The Bacchus shooting did not involve police so I don't see the parallel, again you engage in speculation and circumvent the facts. You should change your avatar from god to fraud as you keep drawing erroneous conclusions based on lies. 

I guess that you don't understand what an internal police investigation means. Let me elaborate for you since you're a bit slow on the uptake. The police department  conducted an investigation within the department (internal) and they did not publish any evidence to the public. Based on this investigation, the Acting Commissioner of Police testified before the Commission of Inquiry that the POLICE used lethal force to kill the protesters. The Trinidadian pathologist did not rule out any police issued weapons or bullets. That's just a stupid lie which you keep repeating in the hope that someone may eventually believe you. 

The Bacchus shooting involved a witness with conclusive evidence appearing before a Commission of Inquiry. He was executed by PPP hitmen before he could testify at the Commission. The eyewitnesses to the Linden killings are scared that they end up like George Bacchus if they testify at the COI into the Linden Killings. It's that easy to understand but I guess for a simpleton like you, I have to type a little slow and explain it a few times before it sinks into your thick noggin.

p.s. Please do not change your avatar as it accurately portrays you for the clown that you are.
