Let's not pretend to be ignorant. When the French police went out Tuesday night to arrest Abbaoud on Tuesday night, they were met with violence and resistance. Abbaoud's wife set off a suicide vest and blew up herself with attempts too kill and injure others. Two persons were killed that night and seven taken in alive. When they went after Abbaoud last night there was also resistance. The French police considered that due to the nature of the crime and the severity of the crime, Abbaoud should not be allowed to escape. He not only destroyed the peace and tranquility of France but virtually destroyed that country's economy overnight. He was brought down with swift, resounding and decisive action. Same thing the commissioner says needs to be done here. To restore sanity and safety back to the country before we, too, are destroyed. Sounds like you is one a dem who celebrating the 134 murder count "jhed'. And violence and crime in general.
This is Ours; your words: "You're right, Killing all "suspect" young men in Bain town, fox hill, yellow elder and Nassau village under the age of 25 might eliminate the problem...I hadn't thought of that before, "yet you promote ignorance and deception, How can you even suggest that is what the post is advocating. Now we know where our crime problems stem from and society is malfunctioning. Yet you want to criticize those in power but look what you are doing, and so shameless with it Woe unto you too.
Paris announced that it killed Abdel Abaaoud last night. He is believed to be the ring leader who launched the attacks in Paris last week. Was also involved in selling drugs and arms and terrorism. Cool ice used 5,000 rounds of ammunition to eliminate him. Swift and descisive justice!
@ This is ours: your post is non sensical in many ways. No one is advocating "locking up everyone and throwing away the key", but bringing law breakers to justice and meeting out penalties as the law requires. Regardless of what B J Nottage said or did not say or did or did not do, it it time to bring crime in this country under control. At least to the point that the average person can feel safe on the streets or in their own homes. Drastic times requires drastic measures and if young men know that gang banging or other crimes will result in them being put in a cell with 6 or 7 other criminals and an open, stinking, overflowing slop bucket and they still choose to engage in crime then it's their choice to make. And if they come out unreformed and full of anger that too is their choice if they end up with diseases and back in prison. Sounds like you prefer society should accommodate them and suffer with the havoc they cause. Stop using every opportunity to politicize everything. Crime is too serious for that. BTW. Graveyards, too, are becoming overpopulated!
Simply put the police are expecting retaliation killings for an alleged gang member. Maybe it's time for police (along with the Defence Force to launch an "all out" assault on gangs and gang members and gang banging. Launch a "guns and gangs" hotline where persons can call in with information on persons who have illegal weapons or are known gang members. Act immediately on persons who have guns and collect intelligence on gang bangers. Once the time is right Uniate an island wide or country wide swoop on gang bangers and bring them before the courts. Do this every couple months (prosecution). And keep these criminals on the run. Once they get the message that gang and gang banging will not be tolerated they will disband. And once the public see these persons going before the courts and being put away, they will tolerate more with the police and give more information.
They have something on the computer (system restore) that if you pick up a virus on the computer or the settings are changed it allows you go back to a date before the change occurred and put the original settings on the computer. If there was a virus on the computer the damage the damage done may not be repaired and if you go back and access the computer that has the virus, your computer will be re-infected. So now the government must not only go back and see what has changed (and so much has) before the Bahamas became a crime infested, murder ridden country, New Providence especially. It must also look around at its neighbors and outside influences and stem or limit those factors that are contributing to its crime problem. If you look to the US, they have their challenges with crime and guns and to the south of US, Jamaica, Trinidad, Dominican Republic and yes, even Haiti, has more than enough crime of their own. But places like the Cayman Islands, Turks and Cacios and Cuba do not seem to be having the high level of crime, at least not violent crime, that we have here in The Bahamas. So what are those countries doing that is not being done in this country? In Cuba, for example, everyone knows that that government does not tolerate crime in the least. Law Breakers are quickly and severely dealt with and few, if any have the courage to challenge the decisions of government. In addition, the exposure of the average Cuban to the outside world is limited, even through cell phone, internet or tv. But more importantly, the family structure in these countries seem to be more intact in the Bahamas, in Cuba especially where there is not just the nucleus family but extensions of cousins, uncles, grand and even great, great grands. Just saying that while some immediate stop-gap measures are needed to stem crime, especially murder in this country, there is no magic button to fix it all. The standards of morality must be reestablished and a value system that has respect for law and order must be replaced. Those intent on breaking the law, especially where it results in the loss of life or serious injury to another must be dealt with swiftly and in a manner that leaves them with no desire to commit or without the capacity to do so. The appearance that 'crime does pay in the Bahamas' is having a strong influence on young people, males especially, and that perception must be changed. And the bible tells us that thieves and murders have come to kill and to destroy and they must be removed from society. If they are allowed to remain, not only will they continue to kill and destroy, but they will breed of their own kind and teach others to kill and destroy.
I did not write it, GOD did! . "GOD warns Iran (Persia), with Russia (Magog), and a coalition of allies (including Turkey, Libya, Sudan) will go to war and will invade Israel. In Ezekiel 38-39 the Bible warns this coming war between Iran (Persia) and Israel will take place sometime after Israel has been re-gathered into Her land as a nation (which was fulfilled on May 14, 1948) ... this prophetic war has never yet taken place ... the only time in history Persia (Iran) has ever gone to war against Israel was to help Israel throw off the yoke of the Byzantine Empire around 614 ad.
this war will be unlike any other war in history ... this war will unleash a series of irreversible events which will change the world forever. God has set aside two whole chapters in the Bible to warn Mankind of this coming war ...
the bible warns the US will NOT defend Israel. According to the Bible, Israel must stand alone ... with God. For when this coming war does finally start, the United States will be unwilling (or unable) to help Israel defend herself' and I will have a Good day, with God.
Maybe you need to learn to read. I said Russia, along with her allies ( one of whom is Lybia. Doesn't necessarily mean Lybia has to do the actual invading. They will be supporting them. Do you know who/what ISIS is and who created it?
