In many states in the U.S., including Florida, residents of the state pay less than $60 for a driver's license that is valid for 8 years.

Guns don't kill people, violent murderers kill people and they will do so with whatever weapon or object they can put their hands on when they get the urge to do so. More often than not the only real defense for the targeted victim is having a licensed firearm with the basic periodic training and knowhow to use it when necessary and keep it secure.

Successive corrupt FNM and PLP governments and their failed economic and social policies have created an environment in which unchecked illegal immigration has spawned warring gangs, fighting for more and more turf. Like their predecessors, Tweedledum Davis Tweedledee Cooper are much too busy making hay for themselves while Rome is burning in a spate of violent criminal activity, the likes of which has most Bahamians fearing for their lives and the lives of their loved ones.

So you believe the only solution is for violent criminals to possess firearms, because they will surely get them on the black market no matter what is done, while the rest of us law abiding folks go without a licensed firearm to defend ourselves and our loved ones. Suggest you start praying for yourself and your family that you are never targeted by one of the many violent criminals wandering around in our society today, no matter which island you may live on.

Most of the occupants of these illegal and unsafe shanty town abodes entered our country illegally and they and their offspring managed to obtain papers "under the table", often with the financial help of the exploitative pay masters who employ them for menial labour.

The root cause of our problem has always been a corrupt immigration system where anyone can "buy" whatever papers they need for whomever. This is the core of the human trafficking that has been going on in our nation for decades now, and has literally resulted in the invasion of our country by foreign nationals, especially illegal Haitian aliens.

This corrupt Davis led PLP government is now stealing privately owned land whenever it believes it can get away with doing so, then forgiving all the property taxes owed before selling the same land to their cronies at a bargain basement price in exchange for the usual quid pro quo.

The Bahamas Humane Society is in desperate need of another spokesperson. Kim Aranha lost all credibility a long time ago.

We have a national crime emergency in addition to our national debt emergency and, true to form, both Davis and Cooper are MIA (missing in action).

The Bahamas is well on its way to being deservedly crowned the nation with the highest ever murder rate per capita in the world. And Davis and Cooper will surely be giving Fernander and the many other worthless brown suits some kind of national award or honours for achieving this most remarkable feat.

Meanwhile, air and sea visitors will be drying up quickly as word continues to spread that The Bahamas will soon be at the top of the list of the most dangerous places on the planet to put on one's travel itinerary.
