Dear Brothers Bambalaye, Jassey and Alieu Sanyang,
This is to kindly ask all of you to close the chapter on these tirades, at least on the forum in respect of the sensibilities of all of us on the Gambia-L.
I wish to advice that while it is productive to vehemently take part in tetchy debates, it is even more prudent to stop debating when no learning is taking place. It is a pity that the relevant topic of the future of our country could not be discussed in other than this vile trade of insults.
When a discussion of a national character is reduced to the venting of personal sentiments rather than convincing factual arguments, people get angry, frustrated and at best alienated. Hitherto to the hurling of insults, I have enjoyed your postings, as I find Bambalaye and Jassey sharing valuable information about politics in The Gambia.
I would beg kindly that we all discuss with respect for all views, for that truly is the bottom line in any democratic environment. Democracy indeed is not only a system of government, it is a way of life'. Certainly we cannot for once abandon discussing our country, but kindly let`s muster the courage to listen to even the "most insane person" without reproach, with a right of reply to such insanity, at least to educate and save others from perilous misinformation...
Come on let`s fight without throwing punches, let`s argue without insulting...
I love you all
Peace!!
Alieu

"If you are from Brikama, it is a pitty that you've forgotten who settled
you."
Now who is the tribalist? The question is "who settled you in Kombo Pirang
or Faraba or kombo east constituency?" You are no more Gambian than I am
Mr. Jassey Conteh. Just keep pulling your pants lower...I'm about to puke
at this disgust!
