It looks like the country is on track for yet another record braking number of murders this year. At this current rate we may well achieve 130 murders as December usually seems to the most murderous month of the year. It seems that there is nothing anyone has been able to do to stem the ongoing increase over the past half century. So sad.
The latest Commissioner of The Royal Bahamas Police Farce assured us all that he had a plan to implement to stem the rising tsunami of crime. He hoped to see the country end the year with less than 100 murders. One critical part of the Commissioner's plan was the appointment of several extra Assistant commissioners. At the current murder rate, the country should achieve over 130 murders by year's end. Perhaps the appointment of several more Assistant commissioners may help or maybe the plan was doomed from conception.
The other big unanswered question is who exactly gave the PLP party the money to enable it to pay this unexpected bill that they probably never expected to have to pay.
If Mr. Reid has any effect at all on the level of violence and the growth of gangs in the country then it will be very surprising. He will probably just become comfortably ensconsed in the well compensated government post that he has attained and contribute to the country about as much as the others in similar positions do. Any one heard from Rodney recently?
A very interesting survey that UB has done, It is, of course, nothing more than a survey but it may trigger some interest and further exploration of a very complex subject. Kudos to the researchers, you have the courage that should be expected from the young.
Well Joahn, I can certainly agree with your comments on the disastrous American "Civil War on recreational Drug imbibers: Thank you Harry Anslinger, not. Forget the Foxhill prison sentences for drug crimes; they are an affront to righteousness, Harsher punishments breed harsher law breakers. Check out the different approach taken bt Holland, Denmark, or Sweden.
Has John Pinder ever run a business and created employment? for anyone? Ever? Or has he lived off the work done by others as most all union leaders and most civil servants do?

Just business as usual for the PLP, corruption smeared from top to bottom. Does anyone need their roof re-shingled.
