Gay in Jamaica and the Press

Chase:

I think it is so disturbing that the Jamaican press continues to report on gay issues on the island in an irresponsible way. Yes, there are a lot of homophobes in Jamaica, but even then isn't the press supposed to be unbiased? Tell me what you think of this article which made the front page of the Jamaica Observer over the weekend. Personally, the lack of tolerance and abundance of ignorance in Jamaica embarrasses me.

P.S. Can you believe that picture? Where is the Human Rights Council?

This picture just highlights the ignorance of people in Jamaica. Its sad that we are in 2007 and people are still resorting to violence just because of a person's sexual preference.. what is even more sad is that this article got FRONT PAGE and not one person has contacted any human rights group!!!
