Less of the conspiracy theories. We are so small (250k people on New Providence) that no one abroad would bother even thinking of a conspiracy theory involving us, let alone carry it out. The heavy fuel we use is less than a millionth of one percent of production...so..no.

No, my friend. I does not take "vision". It takes hard work. Hard work which starts at 5 in school and continues on in the workplace until you retire at 65. And that is so beyond even the comprehension of the average Bahamian, it's not even funny anymore. Can we catch up? No way in hell. We are being left behind further and further every year and the gap keeps on widening. There are no policies to close it and no prospect this century.

Please stop referring to the 15% as "unemployed". Refer to them as what they really are: unemployable.

Nothing to do with Bahamian, black, Martian or blue with red dots.

1. Agreed. Only if suffering from temporary dementia. Usually cured by 5th blackout in a week.

2. You do know it: a/ get no education whatsoever; b/ smuggle drugs into USA. Or alternatively: a/ get no education whatsoever; b/ get a fictitious government job through your uncle's cousin who is a bigwig in XXX party.

Dumb is not being able to read. I did not say that you could not charge her, was just wondering what you could charge her with and achieve not just a conviction but a sentence beyond a mere slap on the wrist. I believe the Law occupies itself with intent and proportionality. If she has no evil intent and no real harm is caused, what is the proportional punishment?

OldFort2012 says...

I am not really sure what offence they can charge her with? Kidnapping seems wrong as children all released unharmed and no ransom asked for. All very weird.

If you really think that, you must be partaking in what he took a percentage on in transporting.

Basically, he was a drug dealer. If you want to put it in plain English that everyone can understand.
