> Statement in Support of the Resumption
> of Capital Punishment for Heinous
> Crimes

The recent horrific crimes plaguing our nation, including the murder of 12-year-old Adriel Moxey and the despicable act of rape, have left citizens outraged and grieving. These acts of brutality strike at the core of our society, demanding a firm response. While preventative measures are vital, the absence of definitive consequences for the most heinous offences sends a dangerous message to would-be offenders. Capital punishment, specifically hanging, must be reinstated and enforced for severe crimes such as gang murders, child rape, and premeditated killings.

It is unacceptable that the justice system is paralyzed by procedural hurdles and a lack of political will. The death penalty remains a valid legal option, yet the reluctance to implement it has emboldened criminals and undermined public trust in the system. The argument that hanging "is not a solution" ignores its critical role in both deterring crime and delivering justice to victims and their families. A state that fails to enforce justice allows lawlessness to thrive.

If our elected officials continue to lack the resolve to act, then the people must be empowered to decide. Let the question of capital punishment be placed directly on the next election ballots. Allow the citizens of this nation, who have borne the brunt of these crimes, to voice their will. If a majority supports the resumption of hanging, then it becomes the duty of the government to respect and act upon the mandate of the people.

To those who commit heinous acts against our children, our families, and our communities, there must be no ambiguity: justice will be swift, decisive, and irrevocable. The resumption of capital punishment is not merely about retribution; it is about restoring the rule of law, ensuring the safety of our citizens, and upholding the sanctity of life by demonstrating that such vile acts will not be tolerated.

***The time for hesitation has passed. It is time to act boldly, to protect the innocent, and to send a clear message that justice will prevail in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas.***

So sad… we are here again at this point where sick souls are desecrating the innocence of our little boys and girls—our children.

Miss 12-year-old Adriel Moxey found dead.

Wow. So sad… we are here again at this point where sick souls are desecrating the innocence of our little boys and girls—our children.

This vile, reprehensible act against 12-year-old Adriel Moxey shakes the very core of our humanity. Her body, found discarded like trash on a dirt road off Faith Avenue, with only her top on and a cloth tied around her neck, is a brutal reminder of the depths to which some will sink.

This is more than just another tragedy; it is an atrocity against our community, our children, and our very sense of decency. I am outraged—furious that these monsters still lurk among us, preying on our most vulnerable.

To the perpetrator: you are the lowest form of existence. You do not deserve another moment of freedom. Rest assured, the Bahamian people, our law enforcement, and everyone with a shred of humanity will hunt you down. We will not rest, and we will not let up until justice is served—swiftly and severely.

Prime Minister Philip Davis has already declared that "We are going to turn this country upside down to find the criminal who did this and bring him to justice." Commissioner Clayton Fernander has promised that no stone will be left unturned in this investigation.

As a community, we must act now. We must stand united against these predators, demand justice for Adriel, and ensure the safety of every child in this country. Let this be the last time we mourn the loss of a child to such depravity.

To Adriel’s family: we grieve with you, we stand with you, and we will fight for justice in her name.

Enough is enough.

"It’s not difficult at all being myself; in fact, it’s a privilege. Standing firm in my convictions, grounded in principles, and unashamed to express the truth as I see it—this is the essence of my being. You may shake your head all you like, but it neither shakes my resolve nor diminishes the clarity with which I view the world."

"I would wholly embrace the lil demon’s 'don’t bring me around' decree and gladly oblige—and take your degenerate filth and corruption with you. While the 'Gay LGBTQ creatures' may clamor endlessly for an excess of rights, one thing remains absolutely certain: you will never be, nor feel, genuinely welcomed in the Bahamas, regardless."

The retail community in the Bahamas has systematically exploited Bahamians, an issue that dates back to the days of colonial exploitation. From the arrival of Columbus to the present day, this practice has persisted in various forms, with retailers seizing every possible opportunity to impose excessive price hikes on local consumers. Historically, Bahamians have been subjected to unjustified price inflation, often attributed to external factors such as war in the Gulf, hurricanes, the COVID-19 pandemic, and now global inflation. These crises are used as convenient justifications for raising prices, but once the crises subside, the elevated costs remain entrenched, placing an enduring financial burden on the Bahamian people.

This pattern becomes glaringly apparent when comparing local prices to those in neighboring regions, particularly the United States. Our next-door neighbors enjoy retail prices that are often a fraction of what Bahamians are forced to pay, sometimes as much as 100 times lower than what is available locally. For instance, basic goods and commodities that are necessities for everyday life are sold at exorbitant rates in the Bahamas, with no reasonable justification for such stark discrepancies beyond profiteering.

This systematic exploitation reflects a broader issue of limited competition, excessive import markups, and a lack of regulatory enforcement to protect Bahamian consumers from such abuses. Retailers capitalize on the lack of alternative options and the heavy reliance on imports, effectively creating a captive market where consumers have no choice but to pay inflated prices. This is not merely an economic issue but a moral one, as it disproportionately impacts those who are already financially vulnerable.

The time has come for Bahamians to demand accountability and transparency in the pricing mechanisms within the retail sector. Regulatory bodies must step in to ensure fair trade practices, establish price controls where necessary, and encourage competition to bring relief to consumers. Moreover, policies should be developed to support local production and reduce dependence on imported goods, which would help stabilize prices and create a more equitable economic environment for all Bahamians. The era of accepting unjustified price exploitation must end, and the retail sector must be held accountable for its long-standing practice of placing profit above the well-being of the people it serves.

It’s surprising that the IMF didn’t mention the Bahamas’ potential to benefit indirectly from the shipping activities in the Old Bahama Channel. This busy shipping lane connects vessels from the Panama Canal, the Caribbean, and South America to Europe and North America. With a large part of this activity happening within the Bahamas’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), there’s a strong chance for the country to gain financially from this traffic.

We have seen it in the fuel cost, power cost, internet cost, food cost—every aspect of Bahamians' lives is in dire need of your ‘No rocket science’: Ease housing crisis via 70% lot discount' proposal. But no! The political class and their entrenched tentacles float high above the real needs of suffering Bahamians, insulated and oblivious. Like the Zionist, Jewish, Israeli 'tripwire,' anyone daring to speak out or demand action is quickly labeled a renegade and branded an enemy. But Mr. Patrick Strachan, you understand better than most that what we have in the Bahamas is not leadership—it is a betrayal of duty, and the people deserve far better.

Response to Public Feedback on DKT Bahamas' Proposed Vehicle Identification and Compliance System

Thank you for your feedback and concerns regarding the new vehicle control and secure system proposed by DKT Bahamas. We understand that changes in public systems can be met with apprehension, and we aim to address these concerns transparently.

Concern About Additional Fees and Taxes:

Clarification of Costs: The intention behind the Automated Insurance Verification System (AIVS) is not to impose new taxes or fees on vehicle owners but to reduce the overall costs associated with uninsured drivers and improve road safety. By ensuring all vehicles are insured and compliant with the law, the system aims to lower the risk and costs of accidents, which often fall on compliant drivers and insurance companies to cover. This, in turn, could potentially stabilize or reduce insurance premiums over time.

Concern About System Effectiveness:

Technology and Results: The proposed system is far from a "copy and pasted app that returns null results." It is a robust integration of advanced RFID technology, mobile applications, and a centralized database that has been tailored to address specific challenges in the Bahamas, such as uninsured driving and vehicle fraud. We commit to ongoing updates and improvements based on real-world performance and feedback.
Suggestion of Improper Influence:

Commitment to Integrity: DKT Bahamas is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of ethics and transparency in all our proposals and implementations. We work in close collaboration with government agencies and stakeholders through transparent and regulated channels to ensure that our solutions serve the public interest without any undue influence.
Public Involvement and Support:

Engagement and Dialogue: We encourage continued public dialogue and feedback such as yours, which is vital for shaping policies and systems that are in the best interest of all Bahamians. We are committed to engaging with the community, explaining the benefits of the system, and addressing any concerns through public forums, educational campaigns, and direct communications.

We invite all community members to join us in constructive discussions on how we can collectively enhance road safety and regulatory compliance in the Bahamas. Our goal is to create a safer, more efficient vehicular environment that benefits everyone, reducing the burden of uninsured driving and enhancing the effectiveness of law enforcement.

Thank you again for your feedback. We are listening and are here to work together to make positive changes for our community.
