@NationwideRadio I remain hopeful that one day we will have leaders who put forward solutions grounded in facts and research.

In public opinion today we ask, "What is your reaction to the Prime Minister's comments that Jamaica needs a system of compulsory national service to ward off youth from turning to criminal activities?" Comment below & let us know your thoughts.

@Larrypolya22 @EdogaSamuel @JMWave420 @CNN Sir, I pray your child never has a mental health crisis and that you never have to empathize with this situation because of lived experience. This man had a mental health crisis. There is a difference.

A 20-year-old Black man was experiencing a mental health crisis when he was killed this week after five Detroit police officers fired 38 shots at him in roughly three seconds, according to police cnn.it/3TnnxKz

@Larrypolya22 @CNN True, he charged so use of force is justified. But 38 shots? Police arrived knowing that this was a mental health crisis? Why not have a taser handy? I know a similar situation, the responding officers used their tasers. No one died. Same situation, different outcome. Why?

@JamaicaGleaner This was at a school! Thankful no one was hurt.

Quick action by the police today thwarted a murder attempt at the Friendship Primary School in Spanish Town, St Catherine. Read more: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/news/2… #GLNRToday

@JamaicaObserver First sentence should read - “Tourism industry’s failure to make Jamaicans aware of well-paying jobs …”.

Jamaicans' lack of awareness of and subsequent failure to take up well-paying jobs in the local tourism sector has contributed to the need to hire expats, according to executive director of the Tourism Enhancement Fund (TEF), Dr Carey Wallace. jamaicaobserver.com/news/tef-boss-…

@f_fjay @kendallybrown @stjbs There is a longer video where the cop calls in the license plate because he thinks it’s a car that evaded him days earlier. How does he know it’s the same car? Or the same driver? He could have killed the driver & the passenger. YES, another person was in the car.

@kendallybrown @stjbs Why are sooooo many of these cops soooo scared they fire at unarmed people multiple times but when there’s 400 of them on scene with kids dying and one 18yo with a weapon they wait over 90 minutes to act??? Just mind blowing!

Earlier this week, a San Antonio cop abruptly confronted a teen eating in a McDonalds parking lot & demanded the teen exit his vehicle. When the teen asked why, the cop immediately assaulted & then shot him MULTIPLE TIMES. Cop tried to (falsely) claim the teen had struck him 1st

@CP24 And that’s okay. It’s been months since US residents weren’t able to enter Canada by air but Canadians were able to fly to the US with a negative Covid test (and still are).

Canada will allow fully-vaccinated American travellers into the country starting Monday, but there is no word on when the U.S. will do the same for Canadians cp24.com/news/u-s-silen…

@BBCWorld Did you read the article that you wrote? "The downward trend that we have seen in Africa over the past two months is undoubtedly a positive development and speaks to the robust and decisive public health measures taken by governments across the region," Dr Matshidiso Moët

@LindsayFinlays1 @BBCWorld Agree with you. This was hard.

@BBCWorld After watching this it is difficult, to retain any faith in humanity. Deeply depressing.

This is absolutely tragic and unacceptable. My condolences go out to Mohamed-Aslim Zafis’s family and the muslim community for their loss. If you have any information, please contact police at 416-808-5100 or Crime Stoppers  at 416-222-TIPS thestar.com/news/gta/2020/…

@BufordTJustice @Oingo_Boingo @sean_antrim @BBCWorld I know right.

@BBCWorld This article is disappointing. Shouldn’t we be glad that a country or region has low rates? Especially low death rates.
