追加: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]We need to recognize that every life is important. I mean listen me have other topic this gotten so much until we recognize that every single life is important. Let me give you case in point because opportunity sit down with a man is now a big man in government. He used to be a policeman. He used to be a superintendent. Right? I mean I call him but this man tell me say him they put him on a him they put him on a raid with him with him police unit.

[00:00:34]Right? In a a particular part of Kingston and some man fire some gunshot after them.

[00:00:40]And them decide that the squad decide to to get low and defend themselves and eventually get chased. And apparently in the course of that them hold on to one of the youth them.

[00:00:53]Right? Them hold on to one of the youth them and him say some of the man in the police squad say "So, turn your back, man."

[00:01:00]Right? "Look over there, sir, because I brush them I go brush out the youth."

[00:01:04]And him say "No, you not going to do that today, you know. Not today."

[00:01:08]Right? Not today.

[00:01:11]And long story short, him him put the youth in a fiend car and you know carry him thing and thing but apparently the youth never involved in no gun shooting business. So, it would have been them were the police that killed a innocent youth. That youth is now an attorney at law. The youth take the chance where this my brethren that me I tell you me sit down with gave him that chance and he went on go back to school, end up at the University of the West Indies and is now an attorney at law.

[00:01:39]Right? So, there is no such thing out there that people are irredeemable. The problem is we need to have the willingness to give them that chance.

[00:01:49]Right? Every life is important.
