If you want to stay alive in The Bahamas young people, watch the company you keep. Remove yourself from those persons and situations that may put your lives at risk. Put all of your energy into educating yourselves and in doing so you will come to realize that there is a better way of living. Refuse to vote for those politicians and governments that have failed you. You deserve better than this.

This is an excellent suggestion. I hope the young people who get to read this take heed.

At one point I wanted to move back to Nassau but I change my mind. I love my life.

At least we can rest easy, knowing that the Police will apprehend the suspects as quickly as they did in the DPM incident..........hmmmm

It is amazing the response and police presence based on who is affected. But the DPM robbery had surveillance footage to pinpoint the perpetrators, that certainly sped up the investigation...

It is clear that our young men are lacking in discipline and also that they do not respect the value of human life. And so they continue to destroy the future of this country, bullet by bullet. Like parasites, they feed on themselves. Now is the time to implement a national service program. It will be like a bad tasting medicine but the results will benefit all. Anything that reduces morticians from having to collect over 100 dead, gun riddled bodies, every year and the police having to hunt down another one hundred more and charge them with murder can be counted a success........"To many a man, and sometimes to a youth, there comes the opportunity to choose between honorable competence and tainted wealth. The young man who starts out to be poor and honorable, holds in his hand one of the strongest elements of success."
Orison Swett Marden
......."A young man who does not have what it takes to perform military service is not likely to have what it takes to make a living. Today's military rejects include tomorrow's hard-core unemployed." John F. Kennedy
