Yea,shooting and shooting,here and there. This is something apparently self made unstoppable. Where is the moral sense from the RBPF that members of nearing all native communities are appealing for ?. It is absolutely abnormal in any residential area,seen a group of men after 2:00 a.m.,grouping in public spaces,usually a corner,drinking,smoking and talking loudly,disturbing the peace and ,a police patrol vehicle passing by without exercising any right approach or access to a disturbing scenario,for nearing neighbors.
The lack of "Right Approach" to crime,from local authorities, is really beefing up such abominable activities in The Bahamas where neighborhoods are very thirsty for POLICE PRESENCE specially those located "In The Vally" or named Ghettoes,places which are recipients of the long stationary failure of police to address "Minor Complaints"
Hoping ,one day,we could count with real leadership or leaders who care for the people and we can trust them.

Giordano, when you say police, are you referring to those folks dressed in black red striped pants or skirts with the white shirts and hats who drive around all day wasting gas with the a/c blowing or walking around in town looking down at their cell phones watsapping or playing games because if that's who you are referring to, then please be advised that they are only wearing those clothes because the government ran out of hangers to put then on in the closet !!!
