The person they want to question on this matter was recently released from jail. See how the cards are turning. Usually it is the person recently released from prison, or wearing an ankle bracelet or "known to police" who is the murder victim. If you add the number of unclassified deaths to the 149 homicides last year, that will give you an idea of the number of persons who died "at the hands of someone else," in the Bahamas in 2015. Call it what you like. BTW what was the classification of the old man found dead in bushes in Coral Harbour after allegedly wandering from his home?

John says...

"The politician is a type of creature known for its propensity to lie, exaggerate, embellish, and use all kinds of hysterical or bombastic attention-getting."Ronald Reagan: "Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first."
.
"In medicine, it has long been recognized that even a quack remedy that is harmless in itself can be fatal when it substitutes for an effective medication or treatment. The time is overdue for that same recognition to apply to politics." -- Dr. Thomas Sowell
.
"Politicians are the craftiest and most cunning of all con artists and salesmen. They can manipulate even the most cherished beliefs and intellectual arguments to convince you to give them immense coercive power over other people and eventually, even over you. They're so good at it that they can even convince many to become fanatic supporters, and themselves to believe their own bullshit." -- Rick Gaber

"The more you read and observe about this Politics thing, you got to admit that each party is worse than the other. The one that's out always looks the best."
"A politician is just like a pickpocket; it's almost impossible to get him to reform."
Joseph Sobran: "The difference between a politician and a pickpocket is that a pickpocket doesn't always get indignant when you tell him to keep his hands to himself."
"Politicians never accuse you of 'greed' for wanting other people's money -- only for wanting to keep your own money."
"Politics is the conspiracy of the unproductive but organized against the productive but unorganized."

At least when Leslie was there the public knew what was going on. But when Leslie left the blackouts seem to be less? Go figure.

@ banker work permits may be necessary to fuel the economy, but no bahamian worker should be required to sacrifice his/her dignity for a job. Not only did this clown repeatedly abuse his workers but he showed total disregard for young Bahamians and our culture by stopping a musical performance in the middle of a song. If you don't have a problem with that then you are not Bahamian. Stop pandering.

John says...

So they wann ban the entire Bahamian population out of the casinos and off the beaches. Yet they sympathize with a foreigner who came here on the courtesy of the Bahamian people but he doesn't know how to treat em. Roll him out!

When you see low end chains like Walmart and Target closing hundreds of stores this is an indication that the road ahead may be rocky. When Car dealers have to pay a 65% customs duty on a vehicle plus a 7.5 vat there is little room for profit, especially when they may have to mark down some vehicles. So the common sense thing is to reduce inventory. Retail business is not easy and in some instances may no longer be practical. As the price of gas continues to fall some gas stations may no longer be able to cover their overhead because the volume of sales is not necessarily increasing relative to the decrease in the price of gas
