You cannot complain now - Every time the police arrest a bandit some media keep saying they are militants

Le Nouvelliste Journalist Roberson Geffrard had enough with the criminals of Martissant

Translation...

"Martissant over and over is impractical... The bandits have no limits, it is terrible!"

Of course this tweets got many replies. The reply that caught my attention is this one:

Let me translate it for you...

Every time the police arrest a bandit you guys kept saying there are militants.

Every time the police intervenes in these areas you hear it is a massacre.

So stop blabbering your mouth.

Whenever there are police interventions in these areas there will always be collateral damage. There will always be victims because the people who stand with these bad guys will suffer the same consequences as these bandits.

I won't even comment about this except to say that one of the reasons the hands of the police is so tied in Haiti is because every time they try to restore Law and Order in an area some human rights organization, and yes many people from the media, usually accuses them of doing some kind of Massacre. They politicize the actions of the police.

One policeman turned Bandit in one of those supposed massacres is the famous Jimmy Cherisier, alias Barbecue.

Konye a fè cho nan tchouwa nou tout!
