We want justice!

Dear Editor,

This is an open letter to the Prime Minister of Jamaica Portia Simpson Miller:

On behalf of our people, I am demanding that immediate steps be taken to give priority to improve the justice system, which is disgracefully underfunded, or everyone of you in Government should resign for denying justice to the people.

It is no wonder so many people do not vote at elections. I am absolutely sorry for the chief justice and her department, she is being given 'basket to carry water'.

There was a time in this country when I felt to lead a revolution when Michael Manley was mashing up the country with his ill-conceived socialism, which he abandoned as he matured. That feeling has been back for quite some time and I hope I will not have to give effect to it. To remove any doubt, the revolution I contemplate is peaceful and absolutely non-violent, as the late President Kennedy said, "War would result in ashes in our mouths," when he refused to go to war over the notorious Cuban crisis. Nobody wins a war of violence.

Finally, I do not want to hear you saying 'I love the poor' anymore; I want to hear you pledge to reduce poverty and increase the middle class and give priority to the justice system.
