Off with the belt, Sharma

THE EDITOR: It is no wonder our nation’s youths are going astray. Here we have two sons of a member of Parliament leaving the safety of their home and finding themselves in an accident at 1 am during an illegal drag race meeting. What does their father do? He complains that there is a lack of drag racing facilities in the south. Chandresh Sharma should have taken off his belt on the plane and this should have been the first thing to greet his sons on his return to Trinidad. Instead he wants government to take my tax dollar to build drag racing strips. Not a black cent for you Mr Sharma, discipline your wayward children; next time you may not be so lucky.
