Focus on improving the average Bahamian life. Instead of treating the average black and poor Bahamian as criminals and a nuisance. Reward officers for community-building activities. Treat arrests of the average Bahamian as a tragedy that we didn't teach, mentor, and provide them reasonable opportunities to live a lawful life. The majority of Bahamian criminals are doing so because they don't have a better alternative.
All talk. People don't change. If we want change the people must vote for leaders who haven't been indoctrinated by the political class. What reason does the political class have to change? They get paid and prosper regardless. There is no incentive for them to put in the work and take on the risk to make changes. If we want improvements we should demand freedom of information. All government activities should be documented a posted publicly so they can be held accountable. All contracts and deals should be publically posted for a competitive bidding process open to all. Politicians shouldn't be allowed to use the country's resources to enrich themselves or increase their personal power. Politicians' salaries should be capped at the country's average wage. Then give them the opportunity to earn performance bonuses based on KPIs the people care about. For example reduction in poverty, reduced murders, increase in the average grades. This incentivizes them to actually make improvements because if they do they get paid more.
They said he's being kept in the medical unit. Why? Seems special to me.
They'll find some reason to keep him out of the general prison population. We'll probably never know. Meanwhile, black Bahamians arrested for weed are stuck in cells with 9 other men using a bucket as a toilet.
The poor can't afford justice. Seems like everything can be purchased in the Bahamas. If we're a Christain nation we should live by the word of God and not let capitalism overrule.
They're all crooks; FNM and PLP. Our leaders were in a feeding frenzy trying to get a cut of FTX when it seemed prosperous. Now they play the victim card. Guaranteed they will be made financially whole again on the back of the Bahamian future.

Why do we expend Bahamian public resources on finding illegal drugs? Those drugs are in transit and the movement of drugs adds money to our economy.
Focus public resources on issues that have the maximum benefit to the average Bahamian life.
We're still brainwashed by the USA President Nixon's "war on drugs" from 1971. Which was later proven to have an anti-black agenda.
