Remember these the same set of people Marvin Dames and Anthony Ferguson invited into our country to launch assault on the Bahamian people with black helicopters and military tactics. Notice how every crime especially drug busts for small amounts of marijuana are making the headlines. Building a crime report for the country that appears worse than it really is. Then they use your same crime report to tell their people not to visit your country. That’s when you have people in charge who are too green and underexposed to understand what’s going or too pompous and overzealous to understand the consequences of their actions to bring a foreign entity into the country and give them full access. Then the add the country to the list of drug trafficking countries for drugs (in small quantities) that are legal or decriminalized in their own country. How ignorant and how big a boot licker can you be?
Take it a step further: There were more shootings on Miami Beaches during spring break last year than entire shootings involving tourists in the Bahamas during the entire year, 2018. In fact one shooting incident on a South Miami Beach left 5 persons injured. And violence and disorderly behavior have gotten so bad on Miami Beaches, several attempts were made to have alcohol banned totally or banned after 9:00 pm on the Beaches. And no matter how one tries to slice this turkey or dice this ham, it all boils down to racism. In Florida it is both white peoples perpetrating the crimes and being the victims of it. During Spring Break, the shooter and the five victims on Miami Beach were white. Here, when hotel guests get unruly and carry on bad, hotel security deal with the matter without involving the police. And even when police are involved, charges are only brought as a last option. So the guests to this country are able to return home leaving their bad behavior and bad record behind them. They can return to their normal lives with no interruption. Two things: America has always been a lamb that speaks like a dragon. Meaning it will turn on its closest friends and allies at the drop of a hat. When it is economically beneficial for America to do so. Remember it is the country that dumped nerve gas in our waters without our approval and wanted to test AIDS vaccines on Bahamians also without our knowledge of the consequences. In fact it may have already been done. America has the upper hand. It is a bigger country and it is more powerful. So as a countrythat relies on tourism continue to ensure that easy and every tourist visiting this country not only remains safe but has a pleasurable experience so that they want to return or tell others to visit. Continue to clean up the unacceptable behavior among Bahamians and educate them of the potential fallout to the tourist industry. And continue to build other tourist markets exclusive of the US. Canada, China, Europe a and yes Africa. So when America decides to act as a spoiled child or dragon and keep her people home, Tourism will be least affected. Get the numbers up to a level where the demand is so great there is a waiting list. For cruises, for hotels for flights. And this can easily happen with The revamping of downtown and the port and enhancement to the Family Islands. Don’t join the US slinging mud. Beat them by being better.
Many businesses have plans in the pipeline to solarize at least a large part of their power needs and unless BPL moves swiftly to sure up the power and reduce the cost, they will lose these customers for a good length of time. Only because the government has been dragging its feet, giving approvals that a number of these companies are still on the grid fully.
And not to forget it was the US that dumped tanks of nerve gas in our waters off Andros. They also wanted to do vaccines testing on Bahamians using the live AIDS virus.
This new breed of drivers on the streets of New Providence have no regards for safety and some definitely do not know the rules of the road. They pull out of corners when vehicles are only a few feet away from them. They speed up the center of the road when there’s traffic and just cut back into the lane without signal or warning and they load these pint- size, gremlin cars without oversized passengers and attempt to fly. These small cars are very fast but lose control easily, especially when the brakes are applied at high speed. They become airborne and some do a number of flips either ejecting passengers or trapping them before coming to a stop. Drivers Ed needs to be updated.
If he is being questioned and giving police information, then that is assisting them with their investigation. Either he can eventually be charged or released and the police can also determine if he acted with others, who may also be charged, or if he acted alone.
The pipeline from high school to prison was designed for Blacks living in America. And they used the 'war on drugs' to facilitate that effort. And the government and law enforcement in this country went along with the program not understanding the motive or the consequences. Yes there is a serious drug and substance abuse in this country, but the abusers need education and rehabilitation as opposed to prison. The shock treatment by sending teens to prison and 'scaring' them has been found to do more harm and damage than good. Disciplinary organizations like the boys brigade, the rangers, police basketball and other sporting and civic events that instill discipline, and character enforces conflict resolution and team effort are more effective but these programs in this country are underfunded and withering away.
