This the wrong tree Mr Pintard. What the gas retailers are facing is, yes, exacerbated by govt taxes but it also clearly market forces on an industry with too many operators and not enough customers. They want to make the same profit they made when they had half the number of operators as if it's their right to make a profit. Globally this is an industry with very low profit margins that survives on volume business. Many of these stations are empty for 80% of the day. That should be a giant red flag to them.

The problem with a national lottery is "*at this stage*" it will be these same actors running it, basically a slightly altered version if any of the current system.

"*Government. he added, “inherited” a fully functioning industry build by gaming house operators*"

God only knows what else they inherited from decades of illegal activity. Casinos and gambling are operations that notoriously go hand in hand with money laundering, prostitution, sex trafficking, drug dealing and in the Bahamas human smuggling.

If urban legend is to be believed precisely how casinos got here in the first place after fleeing newly communist Cuba

Theres nothing to jump to conclusions on. It was the wrong apartment. The young lady clearly didnt order her dog to attack. The dog either moved toward the officers because it was curious or it was in an aggressive posture. The officer felt threatened and did what was natural, defended himself from a breed of dogs *thought* to be dangerous. I dont fault the officer for trying to defend himself.

What Mrs McCombe Pinder is saying is, all of that could have been avoided if officers were trained in proper protocols for interaction with household animals. (And while they're at it, regular citizens).

The officers should not have had to encounter the dog at all. Likely the first thing they should have done was ask if there were animals inside then allow the owner time to secure the dog. If after all that was done and the dog still came into proximity with the officer he would have been more than justified to defend himself. But none of it was done, that's the advocate's point.

And of course some remorse would have been nice, I dont think it makes them any less likely to face litigation and damages

I think it's likely the family who wants people to know what made this person, "a living person", their heart and their soul was "lakers" and "junkanoo". Telling that story makes them live on.

I often wonder why noone was ever held to account for Pinewood Gardens. Its criminal what happened to those people

Get well Papa

I'm certain this is exactly what Columbus said to the Arawaks, "*sour grapes*"

Something has to be done with rogue construction. To hear the stories of residents in Adelaide and this development having to endure construction noise every waking minute from 7AM to sometimes to 1AM, weekends, holidays. Layer upon later of dirt infiltration, having endured the same in the 2016 roadworks, it is not plessant. Jackhammers, grinding machinery, this mist be 100 times worse. **This is happening across from the PM's office**, and he probably smiling saying look at this wonderful economic activity then going home to his quiet neighbourhood **while his citizens are being tortured**

This property should not have been allowed so close to residential homes. But... we're whores... and its money

Yes. Advocated for this before. There must be not one island, but 40% of islands, that are non mass market destinations and not cut up into rich white only enclaves.

But these guys will sell their mother last pair of underdraws if it gets them a dollar.

Lost. The definition of.
