Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Thursday | February 26, 2004

The eyes don't have it for the Lenten season
THE EDITOR, Sir: PLEASE GRANT me space in your newspaper at the start of Lent to spout a bit about some of the advantages of a vegetarian, preferably a vegan diet.

Deport the Haitians
THE EDITOR, Sir: WHY IS a poor country like Jamaica receiving Haitian refugees into the country and a rich country like the United States of America is deporting and returning boats carrying Haitian refugees? ...


Gunmen take heed
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM submitting this letter being very distraught about the killing of police officer Lloyd McDonald. Chantelle, who is officer McDonald's oldest daughter happens to be my cousin-in-law...

THE EDITOR, Sir: MY FAMILY and I are truly saddened by the brutal murder of senior superintendent Lloyd 'Jago' McDonald. We send our prayers to his family and do hope and pray that the 'low lives' are caught and punished to the fullest.


Impending danger
THE EDITOR, Sir: IN COMPARISON to the crisis in Haiti, Jamaicans are very generous, and helpful to others. We in South Florida have experienced many problems with refugees in our area.


Solutions for Haiti

Typhoid crisis
THE EDITOR, Sir: SURELY WESTMORELAND could do without typhoid, this water-borne disease! Simple methods of geographic placement of homes, or installation of sanitary systems, can alleviate this scourge.


Opinions deserve respect
THE EDITOR, Sir: I RESPOND to your 'letter of the day' of Friday, February 20, 2004, by Mr. Norman Heywood of Portmore, St. Catherine, regarding decriminalisation of ganja...


Respect due
THE EDITOR, Sir., A WORRYING trend is developing in our nation,one that we cannot choose to ignore. Every time that someone proposes a divergent view on any matter, some 'know it all' is bound to jump up to cow him down.
