The human right to freedom of speech in Trinidad is in grave danger if these reports are true. Threats and intimidation by the Prime Minister himself, in broad daylight, then telling the papers that he’d do it again if the spirit moves him is cause for serious concern. Human rights groups in Trinidad and globally need to SPEAK OUT against this man and his government. I hereby join them.
