Right now I am thinking about the corrupt police departments in the US in the not so distant past – Cook County (Chicago), Las Angeles (think Rodney King) and New Orleans.
None of these were cleaned up from the inside – it took outraged private citizens to stand up and tell it like it is. Did it give these cities black eyes – of course it did! Are they better off for it – Of course they are!
How we all like to want something fixed until it affects us negatively – then we scream bloody murder.
We have to be careful in what we pray for – we just might get it.

It sure appears there is one outraged private citizen.

I am outraged that he has a 17 year old girlfriend living on the property where he developing his private militia.
I think anyone "dating" a child ought to be a child.

Well, Pam, agreed but by Belizean law she's of the age of consent whether we like it or not. I don't think she's being held there against her will by John...she got herself a billionaire boyfriend :P

In reference to chief Gates of the LA police dept. The Sacramento Kings hired him to be their coach because they were having a hard time beating anyone on the road.

Yes, there is Belize law and Belize ethics. And, McAfee is a long way from being a billionaire.
Not that his net worth should be an issue, but he lost the vast majority of it thru bad investments and high priced realestate that he had to liquidate. Some actual estimates, including his own, put his net worth under 10 million. http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/story?id=8462247

Yup, assume Gapi, who then leans on Saldivar to activate gsu. Saldivar needs Gapi, who holds the keys to the land kingdom and land is currency for votes. Its a bloody mess, but our mess none the less. But everyone who buys a passport, pays off an official, donates huge sums and expensive items to work around the system, accepts $ for votes, or votes because they will be in favor with the govt of the day for financial benefit, is responsible for creating this mess. Sounds pretty universal to me, unfortunately.

Well, my reference to billionaire status was made jokingly as many people perceive his financial status to be such. Who cares, his girlfriend is of age to decide what her personal Belizean ethics are. I'm not saying I agree that a woman of the age of 17 is 'fully cooked', but some are, some aren't, and it's really none of my business.
