"For someone who claims to be a man of justice and of democracy, your twsited
logic is really baffling. Are you suggesting that, in trying to rectify the
ills of our society we apply different rules for different people? Doesn't
the families of others who were wronged also deserve that those wrongs be
acknowledged and may be retribution administered equally? What sort of
society are you advocating for Gambians? How can you say that the inocent
murder of several dozen people don't matter any more? Get real. This sort of
narrow mindedness and myopic bigotry is really annoying."


Since you are lobbying for justice for those wronged in any way during the
Jawara era, which is fair, then by all means, lobby your present president to
launch an investigation into the murders of Korro Ceesay and others.

I think to convince one and all that your logic is not one sided, which is
what you accuse others of having,  and that you are striving for justive in
our society and not just brown-nosing, by all means start writing letters to
the powers that be at home with copies to the newspapers, demanding that they
conduct these investigations and that they revisit the cover ups pertaining
to the student massacres. Send these letters as vehemently as you pound on
those keyboards to send messages to the L. Thi will definitley convince the
rest of us that your intentions are genuine and unbiased.You are quite right,
all the families whose loved ones have been murdered, tortured or have just
plain dissappeared with no further explanation deserve justice, so how about
your one sided messages that are directed to all except the ones whose noses
you are right under. More cowardice and lip service for personal gain and to
save yourself. What a shame that you have become even more of a  griot to
save your neck. That is very sad indeed.
