Yes, i am blaming Trinis. The jealousy still bubbling inside allyuh.
But whores though? Is that how you refer to these exploited women?
What if it was your daughter now? Shall society scorn her and call her names? You dont think those “whores” have fathers who are concerned? Who have to live with allyuh stink Trini sweat over their daughters bodies?
Man you are scum.
What to call them then Deadtool?
Also please refrain from calling my family's name in your jizz stained mouth. Please and thanks.
So you so boldfaced that you calling other people’s daughter “whores” but when someone mentions yours you toting? Ok De Dragon Deadbeat Dad.

Ah mean, if the cost of deporting a few African Immigrants held at the detention center was so much of an issue that he directed Stuarty to offer them amnesty, what's going to be the cost to deport thousands of illegal Venezuelans?

V’zuelans start receiving registration cards
Andrew Gioannetti
VENEZUELANS, who applied for amnesty during last month's application process have begun receiving their registration cards at the Immigration Division Office, Richmond St, Port of Spain – the main collection point – on Friday.
National security minister Stuart Young and chief immigration officer Charmaine Gandhi-Andrews, speaking with the media prior to the initial distribution, said they were pleased to start the process after weeks of extensive security background checks on the 16,523 Venezuelans who filed for amnesty during the two-week application process, in Port of Spain, San Fernando and Scarborough, which ended on June 14.
Young said, "We went through a registration process that was quite a well-run, efficient and a properly monitored registration.
"After going through the physical registration process...we would have (had) a due diligence exercise. Part of this due diligence was us checking to make sure that the information provided in the forms is accurate."
He added that the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol), Venezuelan authorities and other intelligence agencies were consulted when necessary.
The six-month amnesty will grant Venezuelans the right to live and work in TT. They can apply for an extension when their cards expire once they satisfy the applicable criteria.

Fears stoke backlash against Venezuelans in Peru
By Megan Janetsky Lima, Peru
1 August 2019
When Iris Mendoza and her husband Pedro Carreño fled Venezuela, Peru's capital was their light at the end of the tunnel.
Mr Carreño had been diagnosed with severe cancer and Venezuela's collapsing medical system meant he could not get even the most basic care.
But when they arrived in Lima after journeying across South America they were met with a rising wave of xenophobia against Venezuelans like them arriving at the country's border.
"They look at you and they tell you that you should go back to your own country," Ms Mendoza says.
"They say: 'What are you doing here? We don't need any more Venezuelans here. We're full.'"
Millions of Venezuelans have fled the economic and political crisis in their home country, many of them to Peru, which is the second largest recipient of Venezuelan migrants after Colombia.
Venezuelan migration
*4 million Venezuelans are living abroad
*3.3 million in Latin America and the Caribbean
*800,000 in Peru
*1,200 Venezuelans have been entering Peru every day in 2019

Of those, more than 80% arrived in Lima searching for work, aid, or, in Ms Mendoza and Mr Carreño's case, medical treatment they could not get anywhere else.
Backlash
But the unprecedented surge in migration this year has brought with it an equally unprecedented backlash.
"At the beginning, we had this very welcoming culture in all sectors of society," says Luisa Feline Freier, professor of political science at Lima's Universidad del Pacífico. "But then the fear started to kick in."
According to a June poll by the Institute of Peruvian Studies, 73% of Peruvians are opposed to Venezuelans coming to Peru.
Increases in crime and migrants taking Peruvian jobs were among the top concerns, which Prof Feline Freier say are "based on fears more than on facts".
Peruvian government data shows that in 2018 less than 1% of crimes in Peru were committed by Venezuelans. But the perception Peruvians have is very different.
More than half of those questioned in a study in February said they believed that "many Venezuelans engaged in criminal activities in Peru".
Prof Feline Freier says sensationalistic reporting and the rhetoric of public officials is to blame for these misconceptions.
Bad press
One of those concerned by what she sees on the news is Alejandrina Bardales. The 50-year-old owns a household goods stall inside a market in Lima.
As shoppers bustle by, Ms Bardales explains that she wanted to welcome fleeing Venezuelans but "on television, you hear things, [such as] them doing damage to others, robbing".
Ms Bardales, who has run her stall for 25 years, says it is something that "has never happened around here".
She says she is also losing trade because Venezuelan traders who have set up business next to her stall are undercutting her. "They offer lower prices when they shouldn't and they take away my clients."
According to figures by the International Labour Organization, 72% of Peru's workforce are employed in the informal sector, working in jobs without guaranteed income or benefits.
They are now being joined by Venezuelan migrants desperate to make ends meet.
Iris Mendoza says that she has had to resort to selling candy and cleaning houses for a fraction of what her husband's cancer treatment costs.
"I've been able to work cleaning homes of families, and they pay 20 soles ($6; £5) a day from 8 am to 5 or 6 pm," she said. "Twenty soles. That doesn't even get close to what we need to survive."
'Forced to beg and cry'
Ms Mendoza and Venezuelans like her compete with the Peruvian workforce, which has spurred on hostilities across the country.
Politicians have latched onto those tensions. In June, President Martín Vizcarra stood in front of an airplane being boarded with soon-to-be deported Venezuelans and announced the introduction of a new visa with tougher restrictions on Venezuelans entering the country.
"We have to take actions to improve and guarantee the security of the citizens of Peru," he argued.
While he named it a "humanitarian visa", experts like Prof Feline Freier dubbed it something else: a "socio-economic filter" that will only further rile xenophobia against Venezuelans.
Already, Peru is seeing the fallout from those festering tensions. Following reports of a Venezuelan killing an elderly man in the central city of Huancayo in late July, Peruvian residents took to the streets shouting "Venezuelans have 24 hours to leave Huancayo" and burning the belongings of migrants.
The city's mayor echoed their chants, saying "let the bad Venezuelans go to hell".
But migrants like Ms Mendoza have their minds set on moving forward and surviving the day-to-day. "This place has humbled us a lot. You feel tired. Sometimes you're forced to beg and cry."
Ms Mendoza said she "never dreamed of leaving" Venezuela but as the economic and political crisis continues to deepen, leaving many without light or even the most basic food supplies, the medical care her husband needs virtually does not exist. Returning for them is not an option.
"We Venezuelans aren't here because we want to be, we're here because of the situation in Venezuela has pushed us out," she said.

In a couple years, we will see the true effects of these people on our country...just like when Grenadians who Eric Williams bring, except it wont be concentrated to a few areas.
