ezs note: Just a little note to the 'pastors' - contrary to those who believe MoBay Pride is a 'devious' attempt to 'get more people involved', maybe, just maybe, it might allow queer folk to walk down the street without being accosted by cretinous vermin - like you.

ezs note: Today, it's an important day. Especially for Jamaica and LGBT Jamaicans. Dwayne Jones was murdered three years ago today. While improvements have been made, 'police' officers still haven't done anything.
Hey, what're ya gonna do, real police work, or sip on a rum and Coke?

ezs note: When you visit Jamaica, you will see it ensconced in beautiful Caribbean waters. The temperature is almost always perfect. It's a paradise.

Yeah, right. DON'T VISIT THAT CESSPOOL. DEMAND that the following actions be taken immediately:
The police must take immediate, swift and aggressive action. Every 2-3 days the police will give a comprehensive report on steps they have taken.
INTERPOL will be notified to make certain that police are doing their jobs.
The police will notify on radio, TV, newspapers and the Internet that harming or murdering transgender people is a CRIME, and it WILL be dealt with severely.
Both police and public officials will hold forums urging parents not to disown minor transgender children. Parliament will hold hearings to better serve minors.
Until they do this on a sustained basis, I will NOT visit Jamaica. I'd rather visit Love Canal. This is an utter travesty which Dwayne Jones had to endure.
Remember Dwayne Jones!!!
