Guyanese not interested protesing

KAIETEUR News columnist Freddie Kissoon has been with the national readership for a little over two decades, over which span of time he has established a peculiar and well known media repertoire for, among other things, inciting racial animosity and violence against the State.
Of course, he is supported by a publishing house that has articulated a caravan of hatred, abuse, misinformation and misrepresentation against the PPP/C Government. Also, he is among the many perennial critics that have abused media freedom and the right of expression, despite his constant, deceiving line that the country is governed by an authoritarian government. But OBSERVER must remind himself that for his many articles of a seditious type, his likes would have been heavily sanctioned in such a State, if it was in existence here.
But he is the calibre of activists/social commentators that one is forced to list in a column captioned, “Permanently Forgiven”, because he knows not what he is doing. Not because of any redeeming quality, but because of disgust when one reads his articles that are always on the same theme, seeking to discredit the Government and fomenting public dissension.
Again, he has chosen this traditional line via a recent column “One Day the PNC will wake-up and say enough is enough. Let’s hope it is tomorrow”. Immediately, an interpretation of its content is clearly another hope nurtured in his mind, for subversion of the peace and tranquility of the State. This must not escape the attention of the relevant authorities, who must begin investigations into such dangerous intent.
One does not have to be a political scientist to fathom the gist and dangerous tone of such an article. In fact, it is an unmistakable call for the PNCR to lead  its supporters onto the streets. The good thing about this appeal is that it will not be heeded by that party. Its former leader, Robert Corbin, brought such a self-defeating and dangerous strategy to an end just after assumption of the party’s leadership. He realised, quite sensibly, that such a tactic had in the past seriously damaged the party’s image, and most importantly, destabilised this country’s efforts at national reconstruction. Who will forget the Hoyte’s slow fyuh, mo fyuh call, and the destruction that followed thereafter?
A most senior PNC chieftain, some months ago, repudiated such a party strategy, declaring emphatically that political street protests are not going to happen again.
In fact, that party’s supporters are aware that they themselves and families cannot progress as they have been doing for the past 20 years, should this nation revert to such a non-productive and unbeneficial activity. Guyanese in general are interested in living, not protesting!
