Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Sunday | January 14, 2007

Legal zealotry
Lawmakers need to be careful about how they legislate about people's private behaviour lest they unleash the voyeurs, zealots and moral Gestapo, who, quite often, are one and the same.

Tourism boom, burden and bane

As children we were often told the story of the three little pigs, who, after being weaned by their mother, went out into the world to start life on their own.


No one quite like Portia

The only thing I've thought trivial about Mrs. Simpson Miller as a political leader was her unwavering commitment to sports. As I said last year, it just leaves me cold. -Dawn Ritch


Crime's black face

A week ago the Maroons celebrated the 269th anniversary of the signing of the peace treaty with the English. There are many things about the Maroon wars that remind me of the present situation globally and locally.- Orville Taylor


Negativity rules the land

Last Sunday, the front page of The Gleaner carried a very interesting article about a Pastor Samuels in Montego Bay who came face to face with a gunman. - Lambert Brown
