List Members,

My initial posting was intended to be a private reply   ………… I will however 
go on the record and condemn the shootings of April 10.  I can't add to the 
outrage that has already been expressed on the list.

We can do a couple of things from this end to get answers to the ridiculous 
loss of life as a result of the shooting events.   I am however puzzled by 
the lack of action on the part of the Gambian citizenry back home in 
demanding an answer to one basic question

What were the commands given to those responsible for diffusing the riots? 
And who gave those orders?

The AG should then be challenged to bring those involved to justice.  Our 
folks back home should take the lead in getting this issue resolved.  It is 
the responsibility of the citizenry to demand answers from their 
Government.  If the electorate is not satisfied with the answers given by 
their Government, they will have the opportunity to exercise their God 
given right to choose those who represent them.

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are so fundamental to our 
existence that it should not take the senseless killings of school children 
for the Gambian Citizenry to express their outrage.

I challenge The Gambian People back home to make the death of those 
children not go in vain.
