All race matters, we are all human beings, red blood run through our veins. We are being caught up in race hatred that was not started by guyanese. If we would go to the library and seek out certain books. We would love our fellow Guyanese . I read a book 10 years ago that made me into the person I am today. I hope these bandits are caught soon. We are so full of hate that we even start blaming the PPP for the crime that is being committed.
