vg is too small to have all these illegal activities going on in it and no one talking. we are better than this and we should take a stand against illegal activities happening in our community. our youths are filling up the jail cells and involve in too many unlawful activities . time to put a stop to all this. it will damage our small community and island. the police needs to be moved and put officers on the island that have an interest in making the community better and safer for us ..
