St. Martin News Network

But what wrong with this gay politician? He just dont want nobody see when he and Erno Labega does be driving around like husband and wife in his car. Hardworking people buy guns too. That make it right? It is a fact that robbers hide behind these tints you dummy! You aint care about the people. You care about yourself. For my part they can make a law for you alone to drive around with your tints. The Stewart Johnson Law. That will make you feel better right? Sorry for us when we go separate status!

WHAT A THING ???? OYU SXM PEEPS NO EASY A TOLL ????

HOW CAN YU DERE SAY SUCH A THING ABUT DI STUART JOHNSON AND DI ERNO ????????????
I HOPE DI CALIPSONIANS READY FO THIS ONE ?????

""DIS IS HOTTTTTTTTTTTT """

I'm shamed of this media to see comments like the 1st one being allowed.

Keep up the great job Stuart

I read all these comments and I noticed that the first comment is basically against Stewart because the person believes he is gay. Which is discrimination by the way. And the third comment is blaming SMN News for a reader's opinion. The website shouldn't block people comments just because they don't agree with it or you don't agree with it. I think it's good that they allow them so we can see how small minded some people are.
Stewart makes a valid point.....the tint issue is a joke. Police have bigger things to worry about......

I think it is real bad what the first blogger wrote, as a matter of fact it is slander, and I do blame the media for alowing such comment to be posted on the newas site, but then again it will just go away just like that.

what a thing, I can't wait to hear the carnival calypso songs on stuart, its gonna be ma*s in the place, boy stuart dey comin at yu hard, ...boy run and hide, when they finish with yu its gonna be real bad, I think u should not run in politcs again, your reputation has been tarnish and has come into question, the best thing for u to do is move back to the gay island....saba...lol...lol

This is a democratic country, everyone has a write to say what they want. Who knows maybe #1 is a jealous ex-lover of one of the two, but all in all we can't ask anyone not to voice their opinion. It is up to everyone of us to believe, investigate, or disreguard other people's comments, but we can't be preaching for SXM'ers to start speaking out and when they do start people like #3 and #5 start telling people to shut up.

I comment this news media for giving the people what they want. We come hear looking for news and comments, and that's what we get. You can't have all positive comments, else people are going to start calling this media page one sided.

On the other hand profanity should be filtered out, in respect to the country.

i don't see his valid point...which is there is no significant link between tint and lowering crime and his conclusion is basically well since it didn't reduce crime lets make it easier for criminals and harder for police...use your brain dont you think it helps police to see who is driving and wether they pointing a gun at the officer stopping him?? wheres is the valid point? you are allowed to have tint to a certain degree and the fact that establishments can still sell darker tint is because no only cars use tint.
and these are our politicians! trying to get ahead by telling what most want to hear not whats good for the community..i hope the cops issue a statement against this in the paper so we can all be educated.. mostly Stewart

Stop saying Stuart is gay because he is not. He is a hard working citizen of this island. He is an educator and is doing something with himself and good for the island. Unlike many of these so call gansters and thugs we have here on the island just on te block smoking up their head all day long.

Stuart is right about the tint. Crime has not gone down. The tint should not be the issue when it comes to crime on this island.

Dark tint should be taking off.

Actually in my opinion to only relate the aspect of tinting to only crime is futile. The use of tints or the lack of tints is more a safety issue than a criminal issue. If Mr. Johnson wants to equate that to crime then so be it, but it does indicate how short sighted he may be in relation to this issue. Being able to see who is driving a vehicle is also a safety issue not only a criminal issue.

I am glad Stuart brought the subject of tint up so that everyone can give their opinion on the matter. Discard all other personal attacks on him. He doesn't have to go back to Saba if he doesn't want to, he grew up here in Sxm and I know him to be a respectable young man, whatever his sexual preference may be.

People, please let's grow up. I for one, don't care about Johnson's sexual persuasions, one way or the other. Neither am I a supporter of the party he is affiliated with.

However, I do think we should grow up and intelligently debate each other on ideas, issues, topics and proposals.

When are we going to grow up and become mature enough to conduct a public discussion at an acceptable level?

Let's not all behave as if we are illiterates, and jack-a**es -- even it may seem entertaining at the time.
