There is a stereotype that most people who go to these events are criminals. The belief is that dancehall itself is a criminal culture.
What do i think?
1. They will do it until the cops who have the job to do get greedy and start taking bribes again.
2. Either way, it will not have much positive effect on crime.
3. They need to start thinking about CREATING venues that can accomodate 24/7 events rather than DESTROYING. you need events of all shapes and sizes. The young people need to party when parties get big enough they actually rbing in tourisim revenue.
Did you know that Fort Clarence Beach was originally zoned to be the core of Portmores entertainment district? In other words it was supposed to be an area where 24 hour parties could go on without disturbing residents. The party would be the priority. Just like how some areas are zoned as commercial districts and others are zoned as residential, this was specifically to accomodate entertainment.
Politics caused the whole plan to die. They havent even widened the roads there to accomodate a big event (with maybe 10,000 to 50,000 people).
I want to hear more about the positive infrastructural developments in dancehall, reggae and youth culture. |

I think it is crazy why should they tell you how late you can keep your dance. Di police dem a ipocrite cause if yuh gi dem sum money and sum drinks dem lef yuh a lone. Mi just *** bac from ja and mi keep mi bday bash right out of mi yard gate n it keep till di sun ***, wi still deh deh a party and ting and nat a police *** thru deh. Even though dem seh dem a enforce it, it all depends pan who yuh know fi real believe me. Dem did arrest Leena Brit the oda day cause dem mussy kill people a har dance sah. |

These dance bring tourism to Kingston, which is lacking positive international publicity, why should the law want to stem productivity, what control should the police have over a man's honest earnings when he has to pay taxes from the procedures. counter-productive.
how police naa go ah church an tell pasta seh im ah baptize ar save tumuch people at varios howas a nite, ar fi tonn it aff,
eveyting weh gwaan ah daanz ah gwaan ah church, dress style, hair style, selling (mi see guiness an red bull pon cyaat ah church gate, cigarett tu) magglin, look one anadda, not to menshan SEX ah indeh it deh, dem ah BLESS it indeh.
