Desmond Trotman and company have a lot to worry and complain about

Dear Sir,
At the time of giving evidence to the Commission of Inquiry on the occurrences in Linden on July 18, 2012, Mr Desmond Trotman, Member of Parliament said that he did not consider blocking the bridge as breaking the law and that “Members of the legislature must understand and emphasize the problems the people are facing” and that he is unapologetic about his utterances.
It is this same Trotman along with Clive Thomas on the Walter Rodney Groundings program, who chastised PPP Members of Parliament for condemning the beatings and robbing of persons in Agricola.
In fact Clive Thomas and Desmond Thomas agreed that to entertain any conversation on the crimes committed on persons in Agricola is deviation from the main issue of the killing of an Agricola youth and the pressure must be kept on the Government.
It can be argued that if blocking the Linden bridge and creating hardships for thousands of persons who use that bridge to and from the other regions is not breaking the law, burning school and other buildings is not breaking the law, throwing objects at the police even though they were armed is not breaking the law, then Desmond Trotman and company have a lot to worry and complain about.
On the other hand I am sorry for Desmond Trotman. Both Vanessa Kissoon and Sharma Solomon said that the people were resting on the bridge.
As such they cannot be labeled protesters. They were peaceful persons who were using logs to cook. They were singing and partying with children.  Evidence given is that they were not protesting.
I find it difficult to accept the rationale of Desmond Trotman. If I do then I will have to say unapologetically that those who put in place a phantom Squad that worked towards the eradication of the famous jail break and Buxton gangs did understand and emphasize the problems that the people were facing.
