... so the owner of the dog is connected somehow and is being asked to come in? No warrant has been issued for arrest from the time of the incident? Smell fishy!

... I wonder how many of these people can see a correlation between their choices and the quality of their lives! They chose their partners and decided to have children.

Too many make decisions with their feelings instead of their brains, and likely were not taught how to do the latter! A big part of a parents job is to prepare their children to thrive in the real world, and that involves laying the ground work through education, delayed gratification and strategic planning. Not a lifetime of making mistakes and waiting for someone else to bail you out!! Nothing politicians love more than to have a nation of people dependent on them for everything!

... I wonder how much of this is related to the rise in same sex relationships in this country?

If they were to include verbal abuse, which is equally as traumatic, most households in the Bahamas would be included! As a people we have lost all decency, respect for self and others and other attributes that flowed from our forefather efforts to instill godly values in their offspring! Our people have been educated out of commonsense!

... the Florida everglades has been having problems with these snakes for years now. Not a very long swim from there to Abaco, Bimini or Grand Bahamas. The government should issue rewards to kill these snakes, because they consume everything in sight and they have no natural predators here that I am aware of!

... where there is smoke there is fire! If there is one Burmese python that size, it is highly likely there are many many more!

... do we really need a "crime consultant" at the expense of Bahamian taxpayers?? No wonder the national debt is so high!!

... not all oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz! The real issue is how much of gas prices are related to oil companies inflating the value in order to stuff their coffers? Why don't we know where companies in the Bahamas access their oil from,, because if it's from Venezuela or other oil producing countries in the region (Trinidad) there is no reason why prices should be so high! I suspect its just price gouging and the government is doing nothing about it!

On Dealer: No sign of $7 gas prices easing up

... reparations is an ignorant and illogical ideology, as those who request them were never slaves and those they want to pay, never wronged them and so owe them nothing!

Nobody talks about the blacks who captured and sold their enemies from African tribes for trinkets, muskets and whiskey! Blacks never talk about blacks in Africa and the US owning and breeding slaves.

Slavery was a universal experience that was never about race! It was always about economics and both blacks and whites profited from it!

... the governments spending to maintain power, pad contracts etc. is out of control. The sole reason VAT was created was to pay down the national debt, but they spend VAT money **and** continue to borrow.

I have said before that the Bahamas was not ready for independence. Our people lack the maturity to think beyond gratifying their immediate needs and do not know how to prepare and plan for the future. Between staggering national debt, embedded illegal immigrants, corruption, high crime and an undiversified economy, this nation is poised to become what Jamaica was 30 years ago! What a joke this country is!

... seems like he should be getting his sone the psychological help he needs instead of talking to the Tribune!
