What a truly foolish person you must be to write an article with such ignorant claims, clearly this person must live in a different country. How in the hell are you making this a racial issue this country is 90% black you are watching too many documentaries you are desperately trying to apply your viewpoints about race.

It is easy for you to say don't shoot to kill, you don't wake up every morning worrying about if you are going to die today trying to protect innocent Bahamians from one of the highest rates of murders in the world.

How can you demonize an officer who is looking death in the eye as a gun or a knife is about to be used on them and that they must shoot to 'incapacitate'. What does that even mean.... shoot them in the leg so they can shoot you from the ground?????

You are truly a selfish and ungrateful person....you waste your energy on this when we consistently have one of the highest murder rates in the world.....where is your concern for those victims......you obviously live in an area where you do not feel the constant threat of crime and obviously live a life of privilege.

They are doing a private placement because it is expensive to do a public offering which entails much more regulations and disclosures. Also, they are not offering shares in their company it will be either debt or preferred shares which is essentially a loan with an interest rate. In other words they are not offering equity which is a share of profits. Institutional investors and HNW investors who are experienced in assessing risk and other characteristics of securities will participate. The company is looking for a loan to fund the building and it has no obligation to make sure the small man gets a piece. When you get a mortgage you do the same thing you go to an institution such as a bank, you don't go to the small man for a mortgage because you would need to go to 50 small men. The institutional investor such as a pension fund for example....has already pooled together the money of small men and is investing on their behalf.

Instead of sending thugs..... maybe the person should of read the policy properly instead of relying on someone to 'explain' it to them. If the person didn't like the Summit Policy just say no I don't want it. This is pathetic.. as a businessman the person should be embarrassed.

and your comment is inappropriate and disgusting.

Banks have no obligation to keep a branch open that is just a cost center, they are private sector companies not government entities (except for BOB and look where they are) and have the right to act in the best interest of their shareholders just like any other company in a free society.

Bogart - A bank has more assets than liabilities because they also use equity to finance assets.

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Every business has more assets than liabilities or else they would be insolvent.

Other than that I agree with your sentiments.

A Bank has more "assets" than "liabilities" because they also use "equity" to finance assets.

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Every bank is required to hold a certain amount of equity to buffer any losses to protect deposits which are the liabilities of a bank.

Other than that I agree with your sentiments
