Now, on the other hand...
To read, again in The Newsday, of the vicious attack on sixty-year old Viola Jones who was transported, against her will, to a place she had no intention of going, by an irate taxi driver and, of the police, after intervening, releasing the taxi driver who was caught walking down the public road with cutlass in hand, when compared to the consequences to James Baptiste who was jailed in Tobago for fourteen days for misbehaviour while he was drunk, I tell you, one must wonder as to the evenhandedness of the application of the law, for, in Ms Jones's case, if, among other things, that's not kidnapping, then tell me what is?
