Police are being used for ethnic cleansers of their own people. Our leaders are too blind to see what is going on. While our country is being stolen from under out feet.

#“Let’s not confuse this,” Mr Dames told reporters.

“I believe it was a shooting involving a police reserve, right, who lived within a particular community. I don’t know the full circumstances around that, but we will see what the police investigation says at the end of the day.”

#
He added: “And so let’s not confuse that with police on duty and shooting. That’s a different situation.”

#
Acting Commissioner Rolle stressed the reserve officer was not acting in an official capacity.

In just a few months (2021), Chinese will be the largest group of travellers worldwide They will surpass Americans for the first time in history. And as a tourist destination and tourist-driven economy, the Bahamas must seek to reduce its dependence on American tourists, and the US, especially in light of the US State Department's hostile and sometimes overbearing attitude towards this country. Chinese tourists spend more money, plan longer trips and are generally interested in the history and culture of the countries they visit. They prefer to fly to their destinations as opposed to cruise ships and stay in hotels. These two areas, culture and the preservation and presentation of history this country must build on. And the time may have come to either have Bahamians learn Mandrin or other Chinese languages.

Can the country please stand and give their government some 'claps' on this 'mag-momentous" self-gratifying long delayed, and much overdue accomplishment. They did us proud!

The bottom line is these tariff increases and this trade war between the US and China may be the undoing of America. The fact is the US does not have any American made substitute goods to supply its own residents or to export to countries that purchase their, 'Made in China' goods thru the United States. And once these countries find alternative means of buying that excludes the United States, it will be years before they come back to America and make it great again, if they ever do. Donald Trump's promise that he will get companies to move and produce their goods in the United States is hot air because even if the countries do move it will be at least a year or two before they are up and running. And, of course, the trade war itself is already depressing the US economy and many of the farmers are doubtful as to what will happen to their produce, even though Donald Trump has promised to buy it at fair market prices and ship it to poor (sh!hole) countries like Haiti and Venezuela whose economy has been completely decimated, like Brazil's. And now the forces have moved to Nigeria, destabilizing that government and creating social unrest. (some Nigerians are already fleeing). Obviously trying to get their greedy, grimy hands on OIL.
And of course, the forces have been working on the Bahamian economy and society for near a decade creating unrest and economic hardship for Bahamians. So if China can stand in the gap for The Bahamas and other countries, then yes take advantage of the opportunity.

So if Marvin Dame's 'invade homes and shoot to kill" policy is so great and so effective, why didn't the police (and/or marines) invade the home of the marine who allegedly breached the security of government house, disarmed another marine, shot and killed another in a barrage of gunfire and allegedly escaped without a scratch? The perversion of natural justice is the worst crime.

So what is Marvin Dames proposed strategy to combat the gun culture? Join the police force and kill without question?

John says...

Dey juice him ay

With the reputation of the police where they can shoot an innocent man 18 times or attack a residence and kill three males 9all that was in sight) and for the security minister to say 'they had to do what they had to do", will body cameras make a difference? really now! Maybe they will make video clips of the police in action and sell you your own personal copy!

On Body camera deal nearly done
