Hitler used to have a similar viewpoint about not allowing certain races to procreate !
While I agree and don't condone any man anywhere who does not raise their kids, even as a separated parent, we can only hope that young people don't idolise the values of some of the artistes they listen to. So using the benchmark described we should be ruling out Bob Marley as the Legend that he is celebrated as and seeing people like Michael Jackson who has stood trial for being a child abuser twice and who many still believe is guilty, be catapulted into being a hero after his death.
Couldn't agree more about the hypocracy of religion, but broaden that to everywhere. A lot of people around the world do a lot of nasty things in the name of religion. It takes more than banging a tambourine on Sunday or saying prayers five times a day to make up for the sins of the week.
Current examples, ISIS in Iraq, and the religious deep south and the continued presence of the KKK. This world is horrible in a lot of places.
It was only a couple of years ago that young people in London then around the country started to riot due to their frustrations from poverty, lack of opportunity and racism. The government threw some big money around after that, with projects and interventions still being delivered now through this funding, to change their experience and prevent it happening again. I'm not promoting riots, but the Jamaican people themselves need to do something. But cant see their government responding through investment, no sir.
Unique was a question not a statement..
In terms of the decline in visitors to Negril and Jamaica, that's not the feeling or information you get from Negril. Com or Tripadvisor, (really didn't want to quote them)who both quote an increase in tourism to Negril and have many repeat visitors both to AI or non AI. Everyone has a different experience in JA.
Lastly, I thought all men masturbated. so if doing this reduces many of the social problems, then I think it should be promoted more widely![Cool Cool](https://jamericans.net/yellowboard/images/clipart3/cool.gif)
