It is amazing how the Trini Posse Stand represents all the ills that is T&T. On Saturday I looked in awe at an overcrowded lower stand, an empty upper stand and people cramped up in the aisles looking on at cricket and a lot of them other things of interests. Despite numerous calls by the DJ to have the aisles cleared, people remained unmoved. Alarmingly, even the fire officers on duty, all the security, the police and the Riot Squad were unmoved.
It was typical of how our Third World mindset and culture were exposed for the millions worldwide to see-a lawless society with little discipline and law enforcement that is comical at best. I guess unless there is a disaster or stampede at one of these sporting events no action will be taken. It is so sad that the world can look at the Trini Posse and form an accurate opinion on the failed state that is T&T and how our culture defines who we are, who we are not and why.
