In most cases of police killings, the officer who killed the person has said that the deceased person fired at them first, OK, so why not prove that they did actually fire a gun, it is simple to do and happens in all developed countries. If they did then the police are most probably being truthful. To give trust to a police just because he or she is a police is just silly, there have always been crooked police and always will be.

What an outstandingly pompous letter. Look at me everybody, I alone am so special that I have been chosen by God. Religious delusion runs rife in this Bahamas.

It would be quite easy for the police to bag the hand of the person who the police killed so that the hand could be tested for gunpowder residue and thereby provide solid evidence that the man who was killed by the police had actually fired a firearm. Since the police do not do so the suspicion remains that just possibly the man killed never had a firearm and that the police who killed him was carrying a throwdown gun to justify his action.

The first thing that a government that is preparing to combat civil unrest in the future does is to increase the number of state security employees. The government still has all those tear gas grenades and water cannon that Perry Christie was given by the authoritarian government of the Peoples Republic of China. What is the government preparing for? Should they tell us?

Becoming an independent sovereign country had many downsides, The country could have had a proficient and professional marine force guarding our borders at no cost, instead we have plenty of bent up propellors from boats running up on reef.

The Bahamas has one of the highest rates of murder per capita in the world. There should be no surprise that even those living in gated and guarded rich people's communities are not safe from the killings. RIP, our latest victim.

The Rt. Hon. Arthur Hanna, DPM, <minister of Finance, stayed true to his socialist beliefs, nurtured during those years spent at The London School of Economics. The LSE was created by The Fabian Society, who also shaped British Socialism. I suspect that Sir Lynden Pindling and his wife were, in contrast, most eager to receive a high honors from the British monarch. Time will tell but I will expect that Phil Davis will also nominate himself for a knighthood when the country next qualifies to receive one. Perhaps it will be the price of his retirement as leader of the PLP.

On a per capita basis then The Bahamas may be one of higher polluting countries. We have an antiquated power generation system, a lack of public transportation so most people drive a private vehicle. We have well over 100,000 vehicles in a population of under 400,000. The only real industry in the country is mostly dependent on air travel, which is considered a major contributor to the dramatic increase in carbon in our atmosphere. We have a plank in our eye while pointing out the motes in the eyes of others.
