We are in trouble. It's time for people to get serious about who we elect to office. Rapists, woman beaters, thieves simply cannot qualify...if they are our leaders what do we expect of the followers?

Come on man...would you stop thatttt??? How good are you? You go and run for office then Mr. Clean Nose and Clean hands. Go and make a difference and stop pointing fingers at who is there. Our people really need to stop man... This story is so sad man. That fella was only trying to make a living and probably about to head home for the day. My God, be with his family today, in Jesus name. Our people play politics with everything. No matter how much jobs you create, some people just don't want to work and want the money the easy way - the wrong way and they are unconscionable. Not everybody born in the world has a conscience... This is such an senseless killingggg... heartless and cold....

What bothers me, is the killing after the robbery. That shows that we are breeding a class of sociopaths who by definition, have no empathy for their fellow human beings. These types of psychopaths cannot be rehabilitated and will continue their sociopath ways until they are physically eliminated from society. This is a sad state of affairs for the Bahamas, where we have a couple of generations of illiterate, dysfunctional sociopaths.

The angel of death has been released on to the earth. The killings and rapes and child abuse will not cease unless and the people (believers) repent of their sins and and turn back to God. If will continue in our ways things will get progressively worse. The wages of sin *is* death! And the bible does say perilous times will com and by all accounts, these times are upon us. You can be at home and lose your life, you can be on your way to church and get robbed or killed. Persons are unsafe at home or school and some are even getting molested at church. We may criticize the government as much as we like and change them as many times as we like. But man, cannot fix these earthly problems unless God is included in the plans. And rather than the church teaching about a new heaven and a new earth, they are teaching about a new car and a new house.
