UWI Students protest

[ProtonPowder]

Protest Yes! Making it an inconvenient situation for
1 persons who cannot assist with you plight
2 Have nothing to do with the situation
3.Blocking freedom of access egress of ordinary citizens
Is wrong and should be dealt with accordingly.
When they blocking people who just trying tuh go about they own business and bawling sue sue sue, that was not aggression?
I will say Protest Yes, but don’t have innocents affected! Cause it goes the other way as well!

Then what do you suggest? They already held the protest at the absolute most considerate time of the school week, burned no tyres and werent violent.

Protest Yes! But when you cause inconvience to others who are not part of the problem or soloution, do you expect them to sympathize with your cause? I am not suggesting anything! They are big people and should be expected to conduct themselves in a manner befitting such, not follow big people with 2 year old mentality.

Years ago, a school principal used to say, we have a lot of followers and not true leaders. All it takes is 1 jackarse to start something and the rest does follow.

Does burning tires is in your belief garners sympathy to your cause? Only those who thinks like those who burning the tires.

Does distressing innocent ganners sympathy to your cause? Only if you think like them!

So just because we feel we are not being heard or not getting what is needed (be it right or wrong), it gives us the authority or right or what ever you want to call it, to distress others who are not involved! I hear all yuh!

That school principal would identify you as a follower then, you have no suggestion because there is no possible way that it could have been more milquetoast as a protest. What do you want, them sitting in the greens holding hands and singing nursery rhymes?

And is naysayers like you in the public who would come after and say that these chirren dont know how to draw attention to their cause and leading insufficient action. You know that same nonsense people talking about, where people in Germany abandon their vehicles on the road after gas raise? I guess you think that affected no one then.

For action to have results, it must have an effect on those you are protesting against, you clearly do not understand it.

If I am a follower, well so be it! Not everyone is designed to be a leader or has leadership qualities. However, the point that the principal was making is that the ones who can, does engage in jackass behavior!

People quick to say, Germany and Singapore and and and, but reality is.. we in Trinidad. Take it as it is, good or bad! I am not against protest and the choice of protesting by the UWI students. If you want to garner public support, don’t distress the public!

If I protest and my actions affecting you, I am sure you will not be pleased, no matter what I protesting about. Will I be able to win your support?

i chose not to answer that person because he/she seems unaffected by the issue.... which imo is one of the biggest issues with us as trinis.
if the police respond differently to oppressed areas as they would to those high income areas, those who have the luxury of getting cordial interactions with the police will never understand the plight of those who get targeted based on stereotype etc.
when prices go up those who continue to be able to afford always find issue with those complaining as they can't understand the fact that some live paycheck to paycheck despite fighting the uphill battle to better themselves and their families.
If we are to learn from historical impasses no change can be achieved without struggle and sacrifice...unfortunately in this case it meant inconveniencing the public, but the greater the audience the greater the impact.
its strange that when the police did their so called day of policing those who got their early morning heads up from family and friends and decided to stay away from the nations roads actually found no issue when the police inconvenienced a whole motoring public by stopping fools like me to ask if my oil top up in my engine, but seem to see a federal crime with students blocking a university entrance to protest against the inability of authorities to curb serious crimes against students.... even getting abused and brutalized for doing so......

well sir/madam, with higher cost of living, more people on the breadline from this christmas and with this environmental disaster that minister young seems to be trying to play down as something simple as a passing cloud I am willing to gamble that you may be in for some more inconvenience soon...stay tuned.

The last thing any government wants is young people protesting, especially university students, because they are the ones who start revolutions, social and otherwise.

kstt: Very good question.

This is so true! Once your educated young people start moving there is no stopping them ...

UWI and university campus’ in general have always been hotbeds of protests. That said students should be able to protest but do so within the confines of the law.

Everybody needs to understand that...

Once you understand that the law enforcement officers trumping up charges against the boys for no other reason than that they can.

Keep parroting what GG saying though, acting as if officers abusing their power isnt a thing.

That is a real house slave mentality. It was a peaceful protest. These hardback officers, like many older adults, despise UWI students and want to beat them down and teach them a lesson.

What is there to grow up and realize? How could the protest have been more peaceful and hold some semblance of effectiveness? Is protesting legally or morally wrong? The 'confines of the law' statement is the broadest catch all statement that only served as a stall in the court of public opinion while they scrambled to charge the boys with a crime.

You cannot block access to public thoroughfares horsie. That iz against the law.

The law may be an ass...but that kinda juvenile liberal behavior only turns public opinion against your cause and weakens your argument.

My UWI days are long finished, but I have participated in student action when I attended Mona in Jamaica against very similar conditions concerning campus safety and lighting.

Take your grandstanding somewhere else.

Really now? Check saturday's express where they ask the public's opinion on student safety. You'd see what 10/10 of the responses state. I also see the MP for that area representing the students in court.

And on top of that, I see UWI admitting that a sexual assault did take place, backtracking from their previous stance and a committment to improving safety on campus.

Looks like your blind conformity fails you.

And your juvenile social justice tactics betray u....

Carry on...

Gonna explain your rationale? Or you gonna huff your own farts some more?

Alright, I will clarify since you are clearly looking for any excuse to not explain your point.

Gonna explain your rationale? Or you gonna huff your own farts some more?

translates to:
Gonna explain your rationale? Or are you gonna stand on your pedestal some more?

question: does a peaceful protest bring about immediate action??

What Rosa parks did was against the law
What Harriet tubman did was against the law.

Weed was against the law.

Laws can be changed to suit any agenda. Laws can be bad.

Horsie...I hope u ent trying to justify UWI fake lill social justice bad boy behavior by comparing UWI protest to the 1960s civil rights movement eh....cuz that iza weak comparison.

Cuz plenty ppl in civil rights movement get buss head and much much worse.



If allyuh UWI bad boys prepared to endure a real rough up for ur cause then go ahead....so long as iz not my head that getting buss.

But there are much better ways to register ur discontent than break the law.

[sMASH]

So, u wanted them to fight and then u would consider their action legitimate?

[Miktay]

So, u wanted them to fight and then u would consider their action legitimate?

Proportionality iza hellofa concept to grasp.

But lehmih bhagi it down fuh yuh.

Are u prepared take dog bite...jail...and buss head for ur cause?

[Redman]

If they we're not arrested ....would we be still talking about this?

[sMASH]

Proportionality.


The reason why I bringing up rosa parks, and Harriet tubman, was because of two things. To show that the laws are not always right and they would need social pressure to change, and to show that I don't need to behave like a wajang or be violent like a Rottweiler and bun place to make a difference.
If u can achieve ur goals with minimal force then use minimal force. If it needs more, then be prepared to exert more.





I feel u should go and protest against how the uwi students protests were against the law and show them how it is done.

How a permitted, lawful, upstanding, sanitized, civilian march should be done, and how much change it Can achieve.

I'm sure the uwi student will be compelled by ur exemplary demonstration and commit to that manner forthwith and henceforth.

Seems like Miktay enjoys sitting in a corner admiring his own intellect as bestowed on to him by skeptic youtubers and Ben Shapiro compilations. These students were charged with disorderly conduct, which is as open and vague as any bootlicking individual wants it to be. It was as simple as the officers not liking the students' protest, and it being to their personal distaste.

Just as it is to Miktay's distaste. The students' actions are simultaneously too much and not enough for him. Only the milestone protests and civil actions of the past century are to be used as benchmarks of inequity in society, and anything not matching up is deemed to be 'social justice' and 'liberal' to be used in an insulting sense, a reference to american safe space campus culture in blue states.

Take your nonsense and go Miktay, it is clear that you spend too much time on the internet.

Horsie I have no skin in the game. The UWI bidnezz iz allyuh fight.

Am just saying there iz a better way forward. The ends must justify the means.

If u can’t understand that then you’re in the wrong place learning the wrong things fm the wrong ppl.

Pointless beatup gnashing teeth and rended garments will yield little jostiss if u aren’t smart about what you’re doing and most importantly WHO you’re up against.

You wont be very effective until you’ve sorted that out.
