Those threatening phone calls on the lives of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission members are not surprising. These are some of the mind playing games they used to. It will not be taken lightly. My advice to these brave men and women are:#1. Anytime you receive a phone call document the time and the phone number(S). #2. Do not panic, just stay calm and get as much information you can. #3. If you have any means of recording those threats it will be helpful. #4. Finally, never give out any personal or the commission informations. Those threatening calls should not deters this Commission from performing the objectives for which it was instituted. Let's these criminals face the full weight of the Liberian's justice system. All of the warring factions committed atrocities against the people of Liberia. Their actions were pathetic, outrageous and unacceptable. These idiots destroyed the lives of many potential future leaders. How can one be destructive to his own country and people? I question the judgement of these warlords and their so called generals. How can you called yourself a patriot? when you have destroyed the country you think you loved. Today, many of our citizens are refugees in their own country. I dare you threaten the lives of these brave men and women who want to see justice being served. To you my brothers and sisters- BRAVO. They can not take our future from us, no more. We will stand for what we believe in and die for what we believe in. May the Almighty God bless the Republic of Lberia and Its People. Tavacano,California.
