We MUST get rid of BN-UMNO regime past and present members, leaders, supporter and cronies from the surface of the earth. To the Muslim let call for a fatwah that destroying BN-UMNO is the Islamic thing to do. MAMPUS UMNO dan anak haram UMNO!!!! As long as the UMNO anak haram regime is still in power the situation will never change.

We MUST get rid of BN-UMNO regime past and present members, leaders, supporter and cronies from the surface of the earth.

It seems the govt of the day is fearful of this realisation that Jerit is getting its message out there but the conduct of PDRM over the last few days will in effect cause adverse publicity detrimental to PDRM and UMNO led BN. That said, JERIT has already made its mark and played its role. Public would certainly pay attention to news of 'cyclist being detained', news that might otherwise not make an impression on Joe Public if JERIT was left as a straight up cycling event. Without highhanded police intervention, perhaps UMNO comes out smelling like roses for allowing the event to be held but NO, the boys in blue must leave their mark and seen to be earning their keeps to placate the Tuan. BODOH !
