Bishop Cline calls for 'more courage' as march against crime gets low turnout
“We don’t need a crowd, all we need is courageous people who will take a stand for their country, for the safety and security of your children and their children’s children,” he said during the march that made its way from Noel Lloyd Positive Action Movement Park to the Office of the Governor.
Mr Cline added that the march is to pass on a better VI to the generations to come and there is no need for criminals in the VI to roam the streets and do what they want.
“We want to save the criminal-minded youth. Y'all need to stop and let down your arms. There is a better way. Your way is not the BVI way,” he said.
Meanwhile, Bishop Cline said parents also have a role to play in reducing crime and that they must take responsibility for their children who are involved in crime.
Parents set examples for children - Bishop Cline
“We want to say to parents who have children and you see they have ammunition in your house. You need to turn them in to the police. You need to take responsibility for the activity that's going in and around your house.
“This is not just a police problem, it's a community problem, it's a parental problem and we need to get a hold of this. We cannot afford to raise any further criminal-minded generations. We need our young men to know that they can earn an honest living and they don't have to resort to crime to get money,” he said.
Mr Cline said for those parents involved in criminal activities, the VI cannot afford that as an example set upon impressionable minds.
“What are you teaching your children if you're going to engage in this type of behavior? What kind of BVI will you leave for your children? And that's the message we want to send.”

Most parents actually afraid of their kids soo sad ....
Marching is below them and I guess their allah wouldn't like that. It have one with a sports store who sells inferno products and when you return them he acts like a hog SMH
As long as corruption exists there will be guns on the island. =Crime
How about more job opportunities? Raise minimum wage? Things like that might actually help.
In the volume book, name the christians Bible, read as follows in the book of Matthew Chapter five and verse nine (Matthew 5:9) Jesus said, "Blessed are the peace makers; for they shall be called the children of God.
Surely true, I don't see any blessings pronounce on those that have march and calling for more and larger amount of people to join them in further march against, as was said, by a few, "poor policing, instead of calling for marching continuing wicked robbers.
It is clear to many and I that Bishop John Cline, and his few blind fillers, has taken on a new role, of march for peace rather than seeking peace by righteous behavior.
Please, stop harassing the new governor. He and hid family needs blessings and peace, as all of us and our families do.
The community need to keep this in mind.
Joke aside, we should not have to march or beg for police to be visible through town
