So does the Bahamas have laws against agents of other countries operating illegally or other unregistered in the Bahamas? They call them secret agents or diplomats. What if these agents were found to be spreading dangerous or harmful propaganda against the country. Or even involved in weapons or drug smuggling? Are they arrested and charged before the criminal courts or is everything kept ‘hush, hush’ and swept under a diplomatic rug?. Because some very serious information is surfacing.

Some government people work on the weekends. Others are on call. So it would be foolish for them to have to drive to the compound to get a car if they are called in.

The disturbing thing about this government and all these audits is they are claiming to expose all these shortcomings, irregularities and criminal behavior in government departments but no heads are rolling. Nothing seems to stick. These reports only seem to make the headlines and cause shock and awe then they fall off the radar. Evenin the courts not a single successful prosecution. Not one!And it was this prime minister who said corruption was taking almost 50% of government revenue, And how many millions a year is that? So can one conclude that incompetence has prevented getting one single successful prosecution?

FACTS: if it is legalized it automatically becomes decriminalized. But the reason they don’t want to do either is because this country continues to support the US in its attempts to send every little Black boy to jail and get him criminal record that he must carry on his shoulder for the rest of his life. Many Bahamian police officers don’t realize the consequences of their actions when they grab a little Black boy and put him before for a joint when America is selling over $13 Billion in ‘legalized ‘ marijuana every year. And Marvin Dames bring in the black hawk helicopters to launch assaults on his own people. Assaults that make international headlines saying the Bahamas is a drug trafficking nation. But we get mad at the state department when they issue travel warnings against this country. But you are the one who took them on the drugs raids and posted pics of 10 year old marijuana on the front page of your newspaper! When will this comedy end? Think Bahamians think!

Still waiting on the State Department (CIA) to give its take on Carnival and other Americans companies dumping shit in Bahamian waters! Millions of gallons of shit annually. After all if the state department can issue travel advisories for fights that happen at Arawak Cay and elsewhere it surely must have an opinion on these Billion Dollar Companies dumping shit illegally in Bahamian waters. And don’t forget Red Lobster is Bahamian Lobster still!

What percentage of DEA and DEU agents would you guess use illegal drugs? let’s say marijuana and cocaine? Please be conservative in your estimates. The percentage of active DEA and DEU agents that use contrabands regularly? So we still digging up 40 y/o graveyards? Well motor bike! Can you imagine how many young Bahamians lives were destroyed because they were caught with a joint? A joint on marijuana that is now a legalized multi Billion dollar industry that n the US alone. Yet they have their agents with helicopters disturbing innocent people during sleeping hours and printing on the front pages of the 10,000 pounds of marijuana that was ‘seized ‘, Chile please! They seek more than that in 10 minutes in LA and not the medical marijuana either!

And Mr Commissioner make sure you use technology to identity and prosecute jail and deport agents of other countries who are in this country creating havoc crime mayhem and even murder. And then they secretly slip away under the darkness of night. Probably only as far as another island in your country. Only until the time is right to do more of their dirty deeds. They control your media, your government, your food supply, your banks, your armed forces including the police. Your power company your communications companies. How many many items you can add to the list? How many can you strike off?

#"Police also want to collaborate with driving schools and increase speaking engagements on road safety in schools and other public forums."
If reports that at least 8,000 drivers are operating vehicles with no driver's education and no knowledge of traffic laws and rules of the road, the effort must go even further to ensure that these drivers get some education and proper driving skills. When they commit offenses they should be sent to driving school for two, three, four classes depending on the inftaction. The classes will also highlight the offence.
.
#There were 285 illegal firearms seized and 6,254 rounds of ammunition confiscated. Additionally, 8,439 marijuana plants were uprooted, 10,292 pounds of marijuana seized and 183 pounds of cocaine confiscated."

More effort to identify and charge and punish persons who are bring illegal firearms into the country. And more education of the dangers of having illegal firearms and illicit drugs. The marijuana may find controvesy as it is now being commercially produced in a number of countries around the world and is already a legal $13 Billion industry. And, of curse, based on police seizures, it is the preferred drug of Bahamians. At the ones being policed.

And of course economic crime must be addressed. Unemployment is still very high, especially among the youth and more so among young males. And when young men are unemployed, there may be more than just he alone depending on his income. And many businesses are shying away from hiring for obvious or perceived reasons. How does one fix this and prevent young men from turning to crime.

When another country controls your energy and your food supply then they control you. Welcome to the Bahamas! we are less independent than ever before. And guess what the next step will be...
PS: they don't want to get rid of the heavy fuel usage because few countries will allow it to be burned consistently and not in an industrial environment. so essentially they are dumping it here.just like Carnival is/was doing.
