Only the police said he had a gun. Ry witnesses says otherwise ( as usual). And as long as there are no enquirers into police shootings, then yea, these type killings will continue.

So running from the police is a crime punishable by death? How idiotic a statement. Many run away to avoid confrontation. If May just have another good son murdered.

That is the intent of some people but not only will The BaHAMAS survive and maintain its culture, Haiti will finally be able to break the economic and political chains brought on it by The US and France. Haiti will become a powerful economic nation and the entire Caribbean block will have increased economic power. Because of the hundreds of years of abuse, these countries may choose not to do trade with certain countries but opt for trade with Africa and countries in South America . This will weaken the economies of some countries drastically and strengthen that of others. The rest will be revealed.

What you said this genuinely or ‘tongue in cheek’ use the US car industry as an example. Japanese cars, not long ago, could hardly enter the US market because of lack of acceleration speed, safety and emission controls. Today Japanese and other foreign vehicles outsell American cars, why? Well in Detroit and Kentucky and a few other places, the ‘not so academic’ students had no problem going into the car plants and working an assembly line job. So as the prices of vehicles increased, so did the wages for these workers. Many were Black or rural, white Americans. So the car manufacturers decided, “employment will no longer be based on skill, but a college degree will be required to work in our plants. Some say this policy was directed at preventing Blacks from qualifying for the high paying assembly line jobs. So many Black families, for the first time, saw family members going to college and getting degrees. Along with rural Americans. But this didn’t prevent the big three car manufacturers from shutting down their US operations and moving overseas. But because they already had degrees, the persons who would normally work in the car plants were able to get other high paying jobs. And because if decisions they made decades ago, US car manufacturers are still struggling to maintain market share and remain competitive with foreigners car manufacturers.

Again how much does this article apply to The BaHAMAS? Australia’s culture is very much different from The BaHAMAS and so are their gambling habits. Australia has to pay a price for wiping out an entire population.

As for education, the one fit all model that cause a lot of students to leave the system with a ‘D’ average has to be changed. Persons are still being taught European history and by 9 th grade students who are not academically inclined should be directed down an education path that will support and supplement their career potentials. Not be kept in school for another three years being taught mostly that, that is irrelevant.

Government must take the blinders off when it comes to crime. When a small country has been losing over 100 young men to murder for over four decades, something is wrong with that picture. And when a number of armed force officers are included in the murder count, both as victims or accused, that makes the situation more troubling. Bullets are wiping out future generations of the country. Who wants young Bahamian men dead?
.

As for the economy, this government must explain why, despite a growing economy, Bahamian ownership and involvement is dwindling, by leaps and bounds. Why are the hotels and cruise ships moving into the water sports industry ? They will give all sorts of lame excuses but the bottom line is they want to exclude Bahamians even more and hogg even more for themselves. If they are not stopped and put under control, the only things the tourists will leave in The Bahamas are heaps of garbage and piles of sewerage. No profit, no benefits . And whilst the cruise lines and hotels rake billions, Bahamians will only get minimum wage jobs.
.
.

Obviously this is just your opinion and hardly cold substantiated facts. Real statistics will show gambling among Bahamians has declined over the last two years. And web shops are mostly passive about promoting their products. There’s basically just one web shop that has highly aggressive advertising campaigns.

Justification of murder is just as bad. At any level.

If you don’t have a problem when more armed force officers are being killed as a result of crime than in the line of duty, then you have a serious vibe still.
