Further the Government would "grant" the cruise line all manner of concessions, while Mr. Smith would have received few if any.
Those who can fight an oppressive Government should, on behalf of all those who cannot.

So not concerned about Bahamians being killed by Bahamians, only tourists and the optics of crime.........
