 | A fact from this article appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the "Did you know?" column on February 2, 2009. The text of the entry was: Did you know ... that the Jamaican Gun Court Act of 1974 mandated a sentence of indefinite imprisonment with hard labor for all firearms offenses, including possession of unlicensed guns? | |||||||||
Restoring "background" section
editThe original background section of the article was split into a new article, Gun politics in Jamaica, in 2010. It was simultaneously deleted from this article. However, this section was specifically written to give context to the creation of the Gun Court. It describes the problems that led the Manley government to take action and connects the Gun Court to other, related legislation. It's not a general history of gun politics in Jamaica, and it doesn't describe the current situation. It's also not overlong in the current article. Therefore, I believe that this article is not improved by removing it. I have restored the section accordingly. --Amble (talk) 15:26, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
