Seriously, if the person(s) responsible for bringing them here and also the patrons were dealt with, this would stop. Unfortunately, The Bahamas is know as a lawless nation where one may or may not get a spank on the wrist and subsequently continue to break the law. Dealing with this issue is so easy, but when you have police officers as spectators at these places, their bosses and politicians getting kick back, then its a very good mix for some of the ills we suffer today. It affects society and no one seems to care because they are directly benefiting.
