Comrades! More bullets that demonstrates consecutive politicians from the two major political governing parties have failed at getting any sort of a grip handle against escalating crime. There needs to be a major revolt against the politicians of both major parties and they need hear the people - loud and clear.

It's the economy. No one knows how to fix it. Fix the economy and the crime gets fixed. Right now, most Bahamians are economically marginalised. Fix that and the crime situation will ameliorate.
