It is concerning that the police and the criminals are in a stiff competition with regards to homicides. It is even more concerning that a coroners court hasn't been in session for a number of years.

That is exactly what the white supremacist says about black people. The Dominican solution wouldn't work in the Bahamas because it is base solely on race. if you are black you are Haitian, if you are white or whitish you are Dominican. That is the reason why you have the most recognize Dominican in the form of Sammy Sosa bleaching his skin.

I own a boat but I make it a point never to venture out too far.

Businessmen have for a long time gotten around exchange control. Example; The Financial Controller of Commonwealth Brewery call the Financial Controller of Atlantis. Atlantis gives him a US drawn cheque to make all his purchases. He gives Atlantis a Bahamian dollar cheque to pay their employees. Clean transaction without the need to pay the bank .005 exchange rate.

Porcupine you miss my point.I am not suggesting in anyway that visitors are contributing to our crime rate. What I am asking is if The Bahamas have an extra 400,000 people here per month shouldn't they be consider as part of the per 100,000 criteria after all if one of them gets murder it counts toward our murder count .If the extra 400,000 visitors were counted then it would reduce the criteria by half. Example, rather than 20 per 100,000, it will be 10 per 100,000.

These days you have to be wise. The young men today are petty. If a young man walk on my foot I apologize profusely.

DonAnthony, You are probably someone who simply accepts what people tell you without any critical analysis. Questions: do you suppose they take into consideration that our visitor population is more than our current population per month or how population density impacts crime stats. If 80% of your population live within 90 square mile radius, of cause you will have more crime compared to the same population spread over a 1000 mile radius.

Just Saying. The crime rate of countries with small populations will always appear to be dis-proportionally more when compared with large population countries. Yes, I know they use per 100,000 criteria but I don't think it provides a fair comparison. It is always easier to find a rock in a pond as compared to an ocean. Why don't they do the same think when stating who win the Olympics.

All my previous interaction with Mr. Moultrie, I have always find him to be a gentleman and a scholar.He sacrifice his job as a meteorologist to ran on the PLP ticket ironically several decades ago. I do believe that there is more going on than what we are aware of.

Bahamians don't watch Fox News because it is anti-black and anti-Obama.
