Leefsland has been working to regularize property theft while PJ has worked to regularize security of personal property. Leefsland is a known enemy of the Black people in Jamaica. Leefsland says you will need to shoot him to get him out of your kitchen and that you need a gun with him in your neighborhood while PJ and the government says gun possession is a criminal offense. Another myth discovered by PJ as suggested by unscrupulous West Indian individuals is that as a community, we help the weak one and kill the strong one five years after the last child graduates. But, that only creates a weak family or families and a weak community.

Another myth discovered by PJ as suggested by unscrupulous West Indian individuals is that as a community, we help the weak one and kill the strong one five years after the last child graduates. But, that only creates a weak family or families and a weak community. But, what if you have children? Even if you did not, the only West Indian community PJ knows says that if God gave me two children and helped me raise them, then they can have different careers and aspirations as we the family grows together. As to weak and strong, the children who absorbed the chastising to get an A should not be abused after graduation as the stronger one while the weak one is helped. There are skills we need in the community and the help that could be given is not about loyalty to a base Black culture of mediocrity. We demanded excellence and it is good to see that we can realize it in our children and our graduates in any version of the West Indian or Creole English community without saying that the graduate above a B could not really be Black and that while he is sort of our community, he must be berated and ostracized for his submission to his parents chastisement and only used in some way. This happens quite a bit to law graduates but it is starting to happen to math graduates, architects and journalism graduates. It is also happening to Bridge Engineering graduates where a right answer, much like law, is necessary to save life and fulfill your professionalism.
