What? .... SWAT?
Isn't SWAT ...... an American thing ...... and Tactical ..... de Trini version?
Today I end up behind dat big black monstrosity ..... wit a D plate ...... a ladder ...... a 'left hand drive' warning ..... and some big ass SWATs all around it ......
So are we importing SWAT? ..... or just a SWAT vehicle? ...... is this part of de Acting Commish crime fighting plan?
GYUL....SWAT and other US security.....Secret Service have been here for about 2 months or more and will be here until after the Summit of the Americas in April 2009...they are based at the Hyatt where the Summit will be held.....Have you not seen the large helicopters flying up and down?...well U.S.!!!!..............They are here to ensure full security for the event, seeing that the US President will be here, along with Raul Castro, Hugo Chavez and all other Heads of States for the Americas.........

..... not only dengue ..... apparently the water woes have returned too ....... after not having water or electricity problems for a long time .... maybe 3 - 4 weeks ...... I have no water this morning ......

There is also a local knock-off security company called S.W.A.T but they, as jumbie said, might be more into mosquitoes and bags of money from hi-lo.
That S.W.A.T vehicle looks like the real thing and it is very possible they (summit security) want the word out that security at some high level exists. There was a helicopter, with searchlight on, circling my house last night so I stopped bloging just to be safe.

SWAT is an acronym, not a brand name.
Special
Weapons
And
Tactics
Anybody can have one--it is not limited to the United States.
Look it up online.
Might be a new security company or something.

Aye Trinidad Adventist ..... welcome tuh de scene!
So I know its an acronym for Special Weapons and Tactics ..... but ....... is it that you're saying ...... that that acronym can be adopted in any country ..... and that the SWAT vehicle currently being test driven here ...... may not necessarily be SWAT from de US ..... but in fact a local SWAT?
