Surely interviewing and documenting every crime and criminal (including close relatives) is what needs to be done BEFORE any crime **prevention** measures can even be signed off?
We should have pages and pages of details on each crime on file for all to see. We should have University of Bahamas students and department heads and psychiatrists and psychologists writing papers about their findings. But we don't even know the average age of these criminals or if they come from broken homes or if they're poor or what percentage are white. Or their average education level or how many are repeat criminals or gang members. Are the murders mostly gang related or are they domestic.
Every time a question about the criminals is asked the answer is '**we don't know**'.

Okay then let's get rid of the privy council and make our own decisions. If we need to change the constitution then so be it. Many countries don't allow bail for very serious offenses. I believe the majority of us would be in favor of the ability for the courts to deny bail.
Let's think about some of the horrible things that have happened in other countries over the last few years (mass school shooting, people intentionally plowing through crowds with their vehicles, snipers shooting random people from windows and roof tops). When people like this are caught in the act or there is soooo much evidence pointing towards them, then do we really want these people to be able to be released on bail?
We need to stop focusing on the 1 out of 10,000 innocent people that get caught up in the system and instead focus on the 9,999 out of 10,000 that are animals who have the ability to roam throughout society.

Kudos to Clint for apologizing. Many took the message the wrong way and the message itself was found lacking.

This is an amazing success story. We need more of these - on the front pages of our papers.

Individually owned??? Well that's that then. No way every owner is going to get together and agree to either fix everything or demolish everything. Hopefully nature gets a burst of energy and takes it over.

***Minister Keith Bell believes it was “irresponsible” and “callous” for a Haitian official to claim that more than 150,000 Haitians currently live in The Bahamas.*** - why? Is it closer to 250,000?

What sort of prize money is there in competitions like these?

I care more about some stranger waking up in Argentina with a headache than I do about the death of these gang bangers.

So that means only 15 more gangsters will get what's coming to them. Not enough. If we get a few thousand out of the way this month then we can all enjoy the future even more.

So Brave will look in the camera and tell Bahamians to stop grinin' each other without protection? 'Cause that's what's leading to too many unwanted kids and ultimately this high crime rate.
There are simply far too many people in this country. If 100k of us would instantly vanish then we would just about be at the population level we need to be at.
