I can't get a break it looks like as I tried to get some well deserved rest now comes this. Another accusation of advances towards members of the public.
The Star carried the excerpted parts below yesterday which has just sent an arrow in my soul as to think we had a solution to this and it was thrown out by the very people who are now being persuaded to fix it, and to think today is the second day of the third anniversary of the civil disobedience some of the older homeless MSM took against the very agencies (JASL/JFLAG) and the coincidence of them making news again is just funny to me.
The Star said:
Teens seek refuge after advances from New Kingston homosexuals
THE STAR was told that the teen was asked to point out his attackers and later taken to the station to give a formal report.
Dwyer told our news team that her son is willing to go public and let people know what took place so that it doesn't happen again.
"I am angry. What if it were my younger son? Other people children have to walk there, too. People have gotten raped and robbed, but many are afraid to report it. My son is traumatised and said he would take his own life inside the church than to have any of them touch him," she said.
According to Dwyer, the police say they cannot do much about the multitude of issues with these gay men.
She said: "If someone attack dem, den human rights come out, but if someone harm my son, how it go? The police dem tell mi say as soon as dem lock dem up, people in high places come and bail them or have them released."
When our news team contacted the St Andrew Central Police Division, an officer close to the investigation confirmed the incident.
In addition, the officer also shed light on the nuisance caused by these gay men.
"They are responsible for scores of robberies and other acts of violence. To be frank, half the reports come from their clients ...people who go their to conduct business with these men," the officer said.
He further stated that the clear-up rate for the crimes involving these men is at a minimal. "Unless we catch dem in the act, victims are not willing to come forward because of the repercussions. When we detain these persons and the victims hear about court, they often drop the matter. We have a tuff job up here, man, tuff job."

Teens seek refuge after advances from New Kingston homosexuals
André Williams, STAR Writer
Homosexuals linked to the 'gully-bridge' in New Kingston have angered at least one parent recently after her son was assaulted while on his way from a match and had to run inside a church for refuge, THE STAR understands.
Information reaching our news desk is that the 17-year-old boy remains traumatised following Saturday's incident, where a friend of his was touched on his bottom by one of the gays. After making their disgust heard, they had to run for their lives when other gays became involved.
Michelle Dwyer, the teen's mother, told THE STAR that the police had to rescue her son from the church after a standoff for more than two hours.
"They attacked my son, and he had to run inside a church. He locked himself inside, and about 20 of dem stood by, some trying to get to my son. A church assistant came and tried to help the situation, but she, too, was told off. They were saying dem afi get my son tonight, and dem want him phone," the mom said.
Dwyer continued, "When the police finally came about 7:30 and removed my son, from inside the church, him say the gays circle dem and start talk a bag of things bout weh dem ago do and weh dem can do."

The predatory construct to this story only makes the group bait for attacks I fear as that same construct has always been the main pillar on which anti gay voices rely to make their points and induce fear but several questions arise in this matter for me having some understanding of the streets.
How did it get to a stage where a touch could have happened?
What did he say or do to them to make them so riled up that they (the MSM) decided to entrap the 'victim?'
Why isn't it not the victim who is more traumatized or speaking more in the report than a third party?
Where is this 'church' as there are no known religious meeting places nearby the Shoemaker Gully and why wasn't the church named in the story?
I find parts of this tale from the Star to be conjecture and not plausible here, yes some of the population's members are miscreants as that has been established but this one seems like gay-baiting at work here more so than the truth or the 'victim' may himself been curious but was not expecting such contact, in fact could the 'victims' themselves be homosexuals under the quiet but the defending parent is unaware of it?
The side of the MSM involved we may never get the truth as these things always end up clouded with anger and differing versions leaving grave uncertainty. And as for the responses to this we are constantly told and shown documentaries of the group but no real solution to move them from lives interrupted to some meaningful developmental work. The Safe House Project which was a temporary answer back in 2008 - 9 was closed by Jamaica AIDS Support's board (members who also sit on JFLAG and CVCC) yet they drag their feet in terms of responding to his festering problem but readily prepare pretty reports and wave the group as vulnerable only in as far as HIV is concerned.
We were told of Dwayne's House which seems stuck in a rut even as more documentaries flow, Yes Miss Yvonne Sobers of Families Against State Terrorism, FAST maybe trying but food in a styrofoam box is not enough when the very folks she is aligned with sat and watched the only shelter close under dubious circumstances and the some the same MSM/Trans put to pasture, now five years later here we have the grief.

How many more stories or reports of this nature (plus those un-reported) are we to tolerate as projects sit on paper and ideas that were enacted made to crumble while the populations languish?
As one commentator had put it the hypocrisy of it all is that the monied homosexuals seem to be using their poorer counterparts for funding means while they enjoy a better quality of life yet making calls for tolerance. A question I have asked before is how can there be calls for tolerance (these days is like an expletive) when such is not demonstrably clear in our back yard, the clear class divide between more affluent LGBT persons and this group is disturbing when compared to mantra on which the struggle or public advocacy rests.
Think on these things.
Peace and tolerance
