Robeson Benn...

…is a bullying, arrogant man. Some will say that he does work, unlike a few of his ministerial buddies, but someone should tell him that it is NOT his job to be firing public servants, no but’s, if’s or maybe’s about that.

The two employees that were recently sent home should not take this insult and arrogance from a man who surely does not know his limitations. Take his ass to court and get writs of Certiorari, Mandamus and Prohibition against him. Mr. English and Ms. Bowen, I’m sure you know that you have rights and what was done to you was wrong and therefore you should not go quietly into the night and let this injustice prevail. You must take a stand, not just for yourself but for others also because as sure as day turns into night, other ministers will suddenly start to feel that they have the right to just dismiss anyone at their whims and fancy.

Mr. President, the actual President, not the silent, ribbon cutting, decorative acting one. I hope that when you return from your two nations trip, that you will play a role in correcting this glaring and blatant wrong and maybe even have a rebuke for Mr. Benn while you’re at it. I’m not too certain about that though, but I can hope. One thing I am certain about though is that Mr. English and Ms. Bowen should not be dismissed BY Minister Benn.

Today is Martin Luther King Day, and many of us know who he was and what he stood for, I leave you with one of his best quotes:

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere”
