Trinidad & Tobago Under State of Emergency

"whats going on in my country yo..damn I still want to go home"

Yesterday Trinidad and Tobago's government put the country under a state of emergency.  Reports say that this act is to clean up the country.  The crime and murders have been at an all time high in the past couple of years, and the citizens of the country have been complaining to the government, asking as to why do we have police? why do we have a military? are they doing there job?.  Well the citizens have got what they asked for, there is now a 9pm to 5am curfew.  Deputy Police Commissioner Stephan Williams told news that 825 rounds of ammunition and 6 firearms have been taking off the streets the first night of the curfew.  Thats really not alot of guns seized if you asked me, so are they really doing there job ? or are the military and police of tnt still chilliing at the bar during this state of emergency?
