If the police only shoot individuals who are threatening them with bodily harm, I have no problems with that actually.<br/>
I do think the body cams are needed to make sure that is ALL that is happening and no other unethical practice.

But hold on doh... didn't Marvin Dames say all 'dese crimes is be from da gangs in stuff and da boyz dem known to police? So 'dis story mus be fake right?<br/>
"**Despite the seriousness of the weekend incident, police did not report it in their daily crime report**"<br/>[Now we know why crime is reported as being on a downward turn.]<br/><br/>
It's time for everyone to wake up! Stop patting yourselves on the back and be more vigilant in helping us to feel safer in this country (esp. Nassau)!!

Yet somehow "real" universities all over the world carry out this process seamlessly. <br/>
Why... pray tell...does this need a couple of YEARS to figure out? It's not like they are the trailblazers in this technology. It already exists! SMH

The way so many of the nurses (and quite a number of doctors) act at PMH is simply deplorable! <br/>
They truly are extremely rude and act as if your pain and illness is such an inconvenience for them. I had the misfortune of having to help an elderly family member who had to always have someone present with them at A & E and experienced this many times. <br/><br/>
Service in The Bahamas in general is really terrible. Sad to say but from my experience it was mainly the foreign nurses and doctors who were more pleasant and definitely more professional. <br/>
For a service oriented country, we're just LOUSY at providing service. Everyone acts like everything they do is a favor and not their job. I also feel like in PMH they have become "immune" to pain and suffering. The basic human decency someone would show if they (in other circumstances) saw someone in pain has completely gone out the window! PMH is truly a national disgrace! <br/>
I support the workers getting the proper pay, but come on man... there needs to be balance. I feel like all of them need more training on how to conduct themselves as professionals regardless of the size of the patient's pocket book (because you meet these same doctors and nurses at Doctors Hospital and it's a different story).

"*For the same report, drawing on recent International Monetary Fund (IMF) data, forecasts that The Bahamas will have one of the lowest annual improvements in real GDP per capita growth between 2018 to 2023 at around 0.5 percent. Only Ecuador and Bolivia are expected to fare worse*."
<br/><br/>Sad to say this report isn't very surprising. We see the proof all around us despite how politicians on either side try to spin things. Sad indeed.

Okaaayyy... so shooting a gun into bushes while driving (where there may be people) is happening because there aren't gun ranges here... this logic is mind boggling! SMH
<br/><br/>
PS- This legal firearm argument is what has been adopted in the US... and wow, look how great that has turned out for them?? <br/>
The last thing we need is to adopt a "monkey see, monkey do" attitude with the USA when it comes to legalized firearms. I assure you that the answer to the gun problem is NOT to allow more legal guns. The US has found that out the hard way! Do the research... countries with less gun violence have far more gun control!

Isn't she already a movie star though? I believe the name of the film was<br/> Dumb and Dumber!

New year...same garbage... I feel *safer* already.

What they need to realize is that this problem must be addressed **holistically**. <br/>
It's not just stopping would-be criminals.... it's reforming the justice system so they get the proper punishment for the crimes committed... stopping bail for murderers, etc... <br/>
Creating more programs for youth who feel disenfranchised... providing more drug addiction/ substance abuse programs...providing alternative educational solutions for the less academically inclined, more sex education programs in schools to help curb unwanted pregnancies...etc... and the list goes on and on. <br/><br/>
The **police force** is just ONE cog in the engine of moving toward a safer and more productive society.
