Personal choices, personal sanctions

Apr 14, 2020 Letters

Dear Editor,

They walk amongst us, enjoying all the benefits of a free society, all the while working assiduously to change our status from democracy to kleptocracy. Make no mistake, the attempt to subvert the will of the People is by no means over.
Despite being caught under the glare of floodlight with fowl in hand, APNU/AFC is forging ahead with patently false narratives in the forlorn hope that someone/anyone is gullible enough to fall for those lies.
The civilized world is promising a range of personal and national sanctions should anyone become President on the back of electoral fraud, but what are Guyanese doing to sanction the abhorrent among us? What can we peacefully do to let those monsters in sheep’s clothing know and feel our ire?
Guyanese have very personal choices to make; our innate politeness and warmth as a people are being tested; how do we treat with people whom we have called friend, brother or mentor when they are actively engaged in an attempt to disenfranchise our nation?
I say we must completely ostracize them, let them know that it is no longer business as usual when they enter our presence. Let us expel them from membership of organisations such as the Rotary, Lions, the Boy Scouts, sports federations, sports clubs or any other grouping that holds dear the ideals and principles of freedom and democracy.
Do not sit at the same table or bar with those who would enslave us. Walk out of the church when they walk in, let them know! They rely on your silence, your manners and decency to accept them into your society. These are hard choices for many to make based on years of acquaintance, for surely friendship with one who would place shackles on you and yours was/is falsely premised.
It would be remiss of me if I did not mention that a path to redemption exists, it begins with an acknowledgment of sinful actions and actions of atonement. After these, then and only then should the perpetrators of this evil approach the Redeemer on their knees and beg forgiveness and salvation.
Until then, we must let them know they are not only separated from God, but also from the company of honest and decent men.
Respectfully
Robin Singh
