Interesting observation by the Assistant Commissioner. For quite a number years, the citizens of New Providence have had to live behind locked doors, barred windows, stay inside after dark, and watch over our property and possessions. Outings to the grocery store, bank, doctors office and place of employment require locked car doors and constant awareness of surroundings. Meanwhile armed thugs run the streets with no regard for life. The police force seems unable or unwilling to crack down on the undesirables who are generally well known.

All the while, New Providence citizens are unable to legally defend themselves and protect their families. When the citizenry are rendered defenseless by the government, the government must take all the necessary steps to protect citizenry or the country will fall into anarchy.

Charlie Harper is a biased Socialist Democrat bootlicker. The real nightmare is the one that Joe Biden and his Socialist Democrat allies are facing in the upcoming midterm elections. Buyers remorse has set in and many who supported the inept and bumbling Biden are now fed up with his failure after failure. The obvious inability of Joe Biden to even put together a coherent statement is cause for concern about him being able to finish out his term as President. Unfortunately, the affirmative action promotion of Kamala Harris to Vice President has provided blatant evidence that she is just as inept and unqualified as Joe Biden.

The nightmare is hitting home for Americans. An awakening is on the horizon.

The materials required for the manufacturing of solar panels, wind turbines and especially batteries are not easily obtained without considerable energy consumption and environmental concerns, as well as supply worries. Evan more troublesome is the storage of energy utilizing toxic batteries that have a defined life span and will require a robust recycling program in order to prevent an enormous downstream environmental disaster.

Charlie Harper is a Socialist Democrat bootlicker. "Reagan must be smiling" and so is former President Trump.

We have heard this before and again, and again. Remarkable that it all sounds the same.

Charlie Harper is a Socialist Democrat bootlicker. In an effort to distract from the ongoing failures of the inept Joe Biden and his embarrassing Vice President Kamala Harris, Charlie Harper pens more laughable spew. Democrats have been after Judge Thomas from day one because he "left the plantation" and thinks differently than they prefer. He is not going anywhere anytime soon.

Charlie Harper a Socialist Democrat bootlicker. In his latest rant, selective omissions, hearsay, and spin provide the reader with a lengthy narrative that is more evidence of his implicit bias. Without the slightest reference to decades of Soviet oppression and genocide, he conveniently skips past the breakup of the Soviet Union, the establishment of political change in former Eastern Bloc countries, the reuniting of East and West Germany, and the famous "Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall" speech by Ronald Reagan.

By continually accepting (on a weekly basis) one-sided propaganda from a biased "Columnist", The Tribune does itself and its readers a large disservice.

Charlie Harper a Socialist Democrat bootlicker. As evidenced by the Elaine story, Charlie Harper is just another lazy "Columnist" who can only resort to bashing a President that has now been out office for well over a year.

The Tribune can and should do better than this.

I agree with most of what has been stated in this article. But, I also think it starts with us and right in the home. When large portions of the citizenry are on the take and are willing to cheat on even the most basic aspect of things - electric bills, water bills, vehicle licenses, etc. - the thuggery becomes a way of life.

In my observation, much of what we see today is the result of the breakdown at the family level. No father in the home, women who cohabitate with men without values, children who are neglected, and a society that tacitly approves of the breakdown. Some of us have not fallen into the breakdown, we live a modest lifestyle and raised our children in a two parent household with loving guidance and support. In the case of my wife and I, our children are all now honest hardworking productive members of society.

I don't have a for sure answer to this problem, but can only say what my own experience is and what I see everyday. It starts in the home.

Charlie Harper a Socialist Democrat bootlicker who in additional to being biased, is also delusional.

Massive inflation on every level, unheard of energy prices, Afghanistan failure, open borders, bungled east European policy, and an embarrassing Vice President in the form of Kamala Harris. Who a feeble and inept Joe Biden sends to appear of his behalf.

The emperor has no clothes, even Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles can see it.
