Hold on, are we ending violence against men and women , or just violence against women......just to be clear. Politics is a disgusting game. Men are constantly shot but there is no outcry to end violence against men. Is is normal to have violence against men but not women? It seems like it is not normal to have violence against women. I am not blaming women for the poor selection of bad boy , drug dealer, mother disrespecter pick in boyfriends, but women need to take some responsibility in the thug they puck. Now, no one should be abused , regardless of their poor decision in men.

Nobody cares about men, only children, women and animals.

What a stupid statement. So you think women are abused because of their choice in men? Do you think men appear in women's lives announcing their plans to beat and kill them? And do you think only boyfriends kill women? Get to the back of the class and put on your dunce cap. The common denominator in violence in this country is MEN - young and old. MEN commit violence against other men, women, children and animals. MEN need to take responsibility for themselves and their actions and stop blaming their victims, women, children, animals, the moon, sun and stars for their actions. MEN who know better need to help other MEN. Stop belittling attempts to protect human life just because those attempts aren't directly about your self centered self serving backside.

Hello there, you are oblivious . You are proving my point. Touche, my point exactly is, this isnt a violence against women thing, it is a violence against everyone thing. Focus and.stop looking at the trees.... see the forest.

Legislate all you wish, you let the violence/murder/vigilante cat out of the bag decades ago, legislation will not put it back in. the law is observed by Honest citizens, not outlaws and politicians.

These women need to sit small and stop opening their mouths because the minute the police come to lock up their sons we will hear the usual "he was a good boy who dindu nuffin" spiel that has become iconic at this point.

Minister Hanna Martin can start with the minister in her party who is accused of violence against a woman.

Laws , are good , but the hearts and minds of people is what means the most, some are evil from birth children of Satan and others become evil due to circumstances

"some are evil from birth children of Satan" Birdie, you ain tired looking in da mirror???

Domestic violence does not count violence on women by women as gender violence. Women chap women mire than men. But to mux a cocktail of Domestic murder with marritial rape is reaching your arms across the ocean. The dots miss and do not add up.

where is your evidence? what percentage of violence against women is the result of female on female violence?

Most of the violent brawls I have seen lately involved female students and adults. We just have to let them cut themselves up. If men intervene we are automatically charged with gender abuse. These girls acting out like bad man, up in ya face with bottle and finger jabbing even in the process of defending innocent family members. These females these days are special. It is like a parallel universe in the Bahamas. Parents can't touch them. The schools can't touch them. Adult males cannot touch them. If we go to the police to make a complaint on a muss behaved female we become a laughing stock. Woman rules and are lawless.

@greentea. You are a laugh. When females give you an encounter gave my prayers.

More asinine rhetoric from our out-of-touch politicians. Literally, thousands of men were murdered over the decades and the politicians were just fine with that.

Now a few big-mouth, gold-digging women are murdered and suddenly we need new laws?

Why the hell should there be separate laws for violence against women? Violence is violence period!

Exactly, I was making this same point farther up this thred.the murder count is all about men on bail. Now, a few females get killed, and we need laws to protect themm? What cacka.

Most fights my insightment are screamed on by females. A few years ago a young man on moterbike crashed over a car racing from an Officer. He was not hurt. The Officer produced his cuffs and firearm. I am just a civilian and thought it my duty to protect the Officer's back with my license shotgun so I stood behind him. Crowds gathered. The females starting making noise pointing their fingers at the Officer and cussing me. They really tried to insight something. A backup Police car arrived and I haul tail. Boy houl don't know our females.

Female accomplice gang members scout out areas before murders. They act as accomplices in bringing drugs and knives to and from schools. Without female involvement there would be no crime inThe Bahamas.

@greentea, they won't let you down, they won't disapoint you.
Sometimes in life you have to stop arguing with people and simply let them be wrong.
Its a male african thing, JEE!

It is the females students who are involved in introducing youngsters to drugs on weekends facilitating the lesb craze then moving them on to further exploitation. Recall, that in the 1980s, the females seduced our men into cocaine. Females are facilitators in mist things men do. Just cannot do without them. They make certain things just so easy as they are never suspects on the radar and allow smooth sailing to take place. Just think about it.
