Sis HR, the JLP under Bruce is doing what Eddie, PJ, even MM failed to do and that is to put eradication of crime at the very top of the government's agenda. I can't say that I am 100% happy with everything he's done since assuming leadership of our party, but on this subject, I am very impressed that he is not just talking the talk but he is walking the walk.

In 13 years, I don't believe PJ made a single policy statement on crime. He has, for the most part, ignored the problem until now it is totally out of control. He could not even find the guts to fire his totally inept minister of justice. Little by little, PNP big wigs are admitting that they have connections to some of the worse gangsters in the country. That is why Bruce is a breath of fresh air right now.

Politics aside, I am for the party that will deal a crippling blow to this hydra-headed monster. Of course, I am more than pleased that the JLP has answered the call to "carpe diem" on this vexing problem.
