Anyway, the government is responsible for providing security for the populace so any failure in controlling crime is a failure of the government.

Not easy to do when the police are on the side of the criminals.

Whatever the excuse, it is still a failure on the part of the government if crime is out of control. The PPP turning a blind eye to drug trafficking and the country becoming a Narco Republic is mostly responsible for the out of control crime we see today. Check out any Latin American country where drugs are prevalent and you'll see serious crime like we have in Guyana.

This was crime and there was crime.  Some based on politics and some on political sponsorship.  Since the ascension of Janet Jagan, there was a quiet insurrection by the PNC loyalist creating a crime wave within a crime wave with one goal, destabilize and force the PPP into power sharing or out of power.  This worked in the 60's and the PNC applied the same model.

I would lay blame at the PPP for have created nothing to mitigate this ground reality and forced to act in desperation.
