Don’t plot so much kids, this will not come clean but it will wash itself naturally. As with all places of this level of ignorance the fires will only spread untill they burn the whole house down in disease and violence. As they murder everyone who teaches them how to be safe (most disease activists for HIV and other deadlies also speak for gay rights and are subject to violence),and they alienate everyone foreign who would have helped them after the massive future hurricanes that global warming will bring them they only seal their fate as the next Haiti. Poor, starving, flooded, miserable, and dying on ‘dirt cookies’. And the people who would have helped them the most, will turn away to help others who don’t hate them. It’s a sad state of affairs in both directions and neither side is ok or safe, but the hate will continue to happen and will not stop. And the neglect that we will return on them when they need help will inevitably happen. It’s all very sad for everyone involved really.

The ignorance and hatred of gays is surreal in Jamaica.I would suggest a boycott.I won’t go to a country where my safety is at risk,and reading some of the outrageous incidents of chasing,beating, and killing gay people,are hard to believe,epecially the two effeminate guys in the drugstore,wearing “horrors”makeup..

As a collective community, we should assist GLBT people in Jamaica to the best of our ability but not line the pockets of homophobic Jamaican’s in the process. Only when the Jamaican economy is hurt by a lack of U.S. tourist dollars and from high profile condemnation of their evil behavior, will we be able to gain any help for the people living there.

Greg, I take great offense to the generalization you made about “Jamaicans”. Most of Jamaica’s brightest, and most talented students emigrate to the US where they live and work. I understand your resentment that a few Jamaicans indeed practice unlawful activities in many American cities- but that is not a defining mark of every Jamaican.

Yous statement reveals great ignorance, and immense insensitivity towards the suffering endured by Jamaica’s GLBT community. Shame on you!

I never committed any crimes in Jamaica, and I certainly do not plan to commit any here.

For years i wondered why Jamaicans LGB’s were not protected by any laws in any country…….i have tried to obtain certain doccuments seek asylum everything i could possibly do but in no way are we protected maybe now that the PM of Ja has spoken out so blatantly the US and other country will open their eyes and start helping us

I agree with what Ty said in regard to mixing Christianity and stupidity.

I disagree with Roger Ramjet’s comment “smoke gangja 24/7.” Ganja smoking has nothing to do with it. Furthermore, most people in Jamaica do not smoke cannabis.

Homophobia is what happens when you mix Christianity and stupidity together.
BOYCOTT JAMAICA!

I’m glad “Nicole” got to stay, but the bad news is that the TCOOO Productions anti-gay Straight Pride march is still on for Brooklyn, Aug. 31.
