Wonders never cease in Grenada. According to Lloyd Noel in his much sought after weekly column - "never a dull moment" in this little rock of ours.

This recent attempt at intimidation of Grenada's leading newspaper editor - George Worme, is again proving to strengthen his resolve that he must be doing the right thing.

We must never forget that the people who are spoken of well and congratulated publicly by Littler Black or any of his diabolic disciples have all been proved to be just who they are: a bunch of nastiness like him and his close cohorts in the Kleptocracy he heads.

People like George Worme, Chester Humphrey, Madonna Harford, Francis Alexis, Peter David, and Nazim Burke would do well to accept that they are doing something right for them not to be mentioned or thought of favourably by Satan and his clan.

Over the years, just about everyone who was mentioned in glowing terms by the chief t'ief and were seen close, have manifested their serious character flaws - just like the chief t'ief. Old people always say - birds of a feather, flock together.

I went back to the issue of the Grenada Today to read this letter to the editor which is today the subject of contention regarding the likelihood of George Worme being arrested and charged with criminal libel and could not see anything to really encourage me to understand what is all the "hoo hah" about.

Mind you, when the particular issue was released I did not even see the letter, far less to read it then. I am sure many people must have the same experience. Its sternness at describing the behaviour of the aggrieved as shameful and disgraceful must have struck a nerve. How else can such behaviour be described especially in light of the recent detention for seventy-five minutes of George Worme as part of the preliminary investigation to lead probably to his arrest under another charge of "Criminal Libel"?

I am yet to see which part of this letter to the editor is libelous even in a civil context far less to be criminal. Oh what an abuse of political power. Just as it is said in the Bible, which the chief t'ief loves to quote: In the last days there shall be wars and rumours of war; so I believe we can transfer this to the happenings in Grenada.

In the last days of the Kleptocracy, there shall be moves to make war with upright citizens. The pattern of this attack on George Worme resembles too well the pattern of the NNP administration ably assisted and led by its legal henchman who holds several positions geared towards terrorizing born Grenadians who have a right to life in their own country.

I have nothing to say about the aggrieved in this matter except to ask her kindly to look again at the situation which has called so much attention unto herself. I did not even pay the article any attention when it was published. In fact, the recent action of the police has actually caused me to go back and look at it to see what could be so scandalous that the path of criminal libel has to be pursued.

Many people can attest to saying the same thing in relation to the letter to the same editor captioned: "Doc, stop playing politics" for which George Worme was charged with criminal libel some years ago. On another issue - have you noticed like I have, the several people who were vehemently opposed to Gairy with all his sophistication as a black man with class, who are today following this inferior impressionist who would like to think of himself as a replica of Gairy?

Many of these same people were so acid in their opposition to Gairy that they took to the streets and joined the NJM so-called struggle of the 70's to ditch Gairy. They got so carried away that they could not see that they were used by the new dispensation which replaced Gairy and removed all their rights and freedoms.

Their blinkered view then has come back to haunt them to the point where they cannot even think straight and objectively so many years later. If they were sensible they would have realized that the brain behind the revolution - Bernard Coard - was often times on record during the struggle praising Gairy's social revolutionary status of the fifties saying that the Gairy of the fifties was definitely not the Gairy of the seventies.

What was to be expected to be the difference between Gairy's style of dismembering the snobbery of the upper crust of our society and that of the 1979 Revolution? Only the time, the functionaries and of course the process - as the revolution was really a working class revolution.

How could you tell me that these same people who could not support Gairy, as sophisticated as he was, can support this low class crop of leaders under the banner of the NNP ably led by King Dregs, himself? Not for the life of me can I understand that!
I humbly submit that these same people who contend that Gairy was too corrupt and dictatorial must have no concept of "corruption" and/or "dictatorial" even though they are exposed to worse acts of corruption and dictatorship during the past eleven years.

Could it have been because Gairy was a little too selective in his choice of people to carry the weight of commerce in Grenada through Sugar Daddy Ben Davis, Will, Joe, Sylvester and a few others? Was there a form of envy towards these working class individuals who quickly rose to prominence while they who felt they were born to be at the top were getting left? Or was it that they were really corrupt and could not find the chance of day to be lime-lighted as long as Gairy was in power?

I am playing devil's advocate here in order to reconcile this issue - as I really cannot understand why they seem so afraid of in some cases, and close to in many cases - this group of inferior vulgar infidels. It would appear that the Revolution of 1979 - 27 years ago - really came to show us who is who, in truth.

Many of them as I said earlier were the same ones who were vehemently opposed to Gairy with all his class and his few shortcomings in comparison with the incumbent - yet for all they are bosom buddies with the man whose acts and omissions make their perception of Gairy look like child's play.

Where can Grenada go with people as confused as these people are playing influential roles - whether in business, church, community organizations, etc.? I believe the jail door will bang for Little Black long before it bangs for George Worme or any citizen who is on the side of decency in Grenada.
