Sigh. I'm not excited about seeing the same people we had issues with the last time. That police home shootout in Blair with women and small children inside the house was very very troubling.. the judgement on that....

"*The biggest room in the world is room for improvement.*"

No truer statement was ever spoken.

I've tried several options for purchasing fish, I gave up Montagu, I just could not put up with the rough service and associated behaviour. Tried fish houses, inevitably the quality of fish delivered would go down as the price went up. I remember when I was excited to purchase processed conch, I picked up two packets stored them thawed them at a later date. It wasnt until they thawed that I said these look kinda dark, sure enough smelled like spoiled meat. I no longer buy conch from that fish house or any fish house,

Bahamian businessmen appear to inherently have a "getting over no matter who you crook or disadvantage" mindset, they were mixing old spoiled conch with fresh conch for sales.

**Oh for an honest businessman who has empathy for other people not just his pocket**

Said before the entire world economy is upside down... for the moment. To believe we will feel no effects is to be somewhat blind. Everybody will be affected in some way by the mere fact that both the US and China are affected. The US dollar is down. The US stock market has lost six trillion dollars. Thousands of US citizens are losing jobs with more expected. Businesses are crying under the cost of inputs going up 150%, more jobs. Farmers are crying because theyve lost the buyer for their entire produce, more jobs.

Looks to me like America has a cold and China has a fever

"*This year’s conservative projections more accurately reflect current demand.”*

That's one spin.

I thought tourism projection for visitor numbers was upward. I believe just days ago there was a statement from one hotel that there were no signs of negative impacts on stop over visitors... "Possible".

Can anybody imagine a defense from Puff Daddy that he was "entrapped"? That is as ridiculous as the suggestion here that senior police officers for four whole years involved in cocaine smuggling werent fully aware of what they were doing. But, the evidence will tell.

From a previous comment:

"*Criminals in the USA are convicted in cases that used entrapment frequently*"

Nobody is convicted using entrapment. It seems as if that Brave Davis' goal was to throw a fly in the ointment, confuse people and muddy the waters. And that goal seems to have achieved. Because people are saying the wildest illogical and confused things down to "the case has no merit". They havent even heard the evidence yet, just an extremely damaging summary referencing captured video.

**A "sting" is not entrapment. A "sting" is not "entrapment"**.

Theyve for example caught multiple persons plotting to kill their significant others by having them speak with a law enforcement officer posing as a hitman. While listening to the recorded conversations released, you can decipher that the agent is very careful in letting the suspect lead the offer of the crime as opposed to directing them in the commission of the crime. **That is where the definition of "entrapment" is found, in detailed examination of the conversation, not simply the "involvement or presence" of undercover personnel.**

If Brave Davis was not privy to the actual transcript of the conversation, it was beyond irresponsible to use the word *entrapment* because he knows the fine details of its definition. Since he told us he doesnt know the high ranking politician, he cant have seen the transcript, because their name is in there. But then again, you need an AI parser for Brave Davis' answers, he actually said, the "US State Department" hasnt told him the name, he did not say he didnt know it.

Back to the earlier comment, nobody is convicted "*frequently using entrapment*" because if the legal definition of entrapment is met, the individual cannot be convicted on that charge. If the individual has other charges, which they often do, as Marion Barry did, they can be convicted on those. Marion Barry was not ruled entrapment either, the judge declared a mistrial because the jury deadlocked on some charges with some jurors ignoring his instructions and openly dismissing noncontested evidence in their "he was set up" theory

Dont know who knew and who didnt know, but I do remember Shane Gibsons comment when pressure mounted for him to resign on his "honour" under the "appearance" of corruption, "*if I have to resign, Perry Christie has to resign*", it was a very very odd statement. Only Shane Gibson knows the players in it

"*AML pushed back against early reports suggesting the blaze originated near the generator room at Solomon’s Old Trail... in fact, that as of this morning, the Solomon’s generator and electrical room, which were not affected by the fire, remain intact and operational,*"

Wow, that's a very big error. I wonder who rushed to place the blame on Solomon's and not the work being on the govt building or govt rental(?). Does the contractor have insurance?
