So Jackass saddled to the west on the weekend and went to see the Beenie Man Summer Sizzle in Clarendon. There was a suspiciously clear area on the road outside the JAMALCO Sports Club and the presence of a tow truck confirmed that it was an area that should be kept clear.

Jackass went to the tow truck men to ask some advice about how far the dray cart could be parked and got a wicked story from them as the conversation turned to car stealing. They said a man somewhere in Clarendon was held up at gunpoint and his car stolen. He stood up and watched it heading up the road at high speed, till it went out of sight, then suddenly saw it coming back, again at a rapid pace.

It pulled up before the owner, the gunman got out and walked up to him and gave him a thunderous box. "Yu fi fix yu front en'. Whe yu waan do, kill off man?" he demanded, putting on another slap before driving away in an accomplice's car, leaving the engine of the car he had just returned running.

Now if that is not the ultimate in tiefin' facetiness, Jackass don't know what is.

The world is not level at all, because many times thieves act as if they have a God-given right to people's property and even lives. As one gunman put it in a story Jackass read some time ago, when they are doing their business their victims should not resist because "a work man a work", so those who put up resistance should accept the consequences.

no washover

Jackass once heard the story of another irate thief, who took a chain from a woman on a bus and was heading towards the door when he looked more closely at it and realised it was not real gold. He turned back, slapped her soundly in the face and said "a who yu a gi washover?", flinging the chain back in her face.

But then there was this case in the United States, where a thief went into somebody's house at night. While creeping around he stepped on a skateboard, which naturally slipped with him. He fell and was injured very seriously, waking up the people in the house in the process. So they called the police and the man was arrested, tried and convicted. While he was in prison he sued the people who were living in the house, saying that they caused him serious harm by leaving the skateboard in a dangerous position. Jackass doesn't know if he won and many will say the story is untrue, but so Jackass get it, same way him carry it.

The world is not level at all, because people who come and steal the things that other people have worked long and hard and sacrificed for act as if they have a right to it. In fact, they don't even consider themselves thieves, but 'gangsta' and 'tuggie tuggie'. So what, then, must the victims call themselves? 'Givie givie'?

Jackass sey di worl' no level. Jackass sey it come een like 'anes, 'ard wuk outta style roun' ere.
