The Royal St Christopher and Nevis Police Force took to its Facebook page and announced that no guns were found in any of St Kitts and Nevis schools after a rumour circulated.
RSCNPF noted, “It is always better to be constructive than destructive.”
However, RSCNPF also encouraged the residents of St Kitts and Nevis to use their creative skills to create good and positive stories, not spread fictional stories of criminal activity.
Additionally, the RSCNPF strongly encourages the St. St Kitts and Nevis residents to put their creative story tales to be penned for official publishing as essays or short stories, potentially turning ‘shoo-shoo’ and ‘melee’ into money.
The RSCNPF has emphasized that Concocting and spreading verbal tales of criminal activity casts dark, far-reaching shadows over society, wastes valuable time, depletes limited resources, and benefits no one.
Furthermore, the St Kitts and Nevis police forces have encouraged the SKN to strive to be better in their own lives this year and always look after one another.
One of the users agreed with the St Kitts and Nevis police force’s plea to stop publicizing rumours.
He wrote, “What is even more unfortunate is that we live in a society that craves and lives for rumours and gossip without any verifiable facts. People are quick to believe whatever garbage they hear without uncovering substantiated facts for themselves. Gossip is the daily tonic for many around here.”
The RSCNPF have urged people to use their creativeness on building the community instead of destroying it.
Another user commented, “We have real issues to deal with. There is no time for distraction, so please keep your rumours to yourself, people.”
