Remember at the end of the day politics stillplays a role!
She is too new to get such a senior position!
The problem is not the minister, but these rude, bad, nasty three generations of bastard children you all have born in this country. Children having children, children having sex in school and no discipline.

Just seeing this thread. Was this incident on the news? What's the scoop?

Bahamians everywhere are lamenting about how they live in fear of the criminals.

Time for the shoe to be on the other foot.

Now I know that I fall squarely into the category of a young male, but it's time for the police to put any one of us to task who happens to be "out and about" without warrant . I personally don't mind getting questioned as to where I'm going and where I'm coming from because I know that I'm not a troublemaker.

Have a press conference announcing a war on criminal activity (then ACT like it). Impose a rigid monitoring policy in certain areas. Implement CCTV cameras at key entry and exit points in every subdivision.

Start building a new low-security holding compound for minor offenders AND finish it in a short amount of time - Roof, walls, doors, bunk beds, toilets and running water...simple. There is no need to send minor offenders to Criminal University in Fox Hill. And get the court system cleaned up. IT'S A MESS and everyone knows it, but no one is doing anything about it.

Long term solution: Boarding schools. Teach these kids some discipline and you wont have to worry about them becoming criminals. Get them out of the negative environments which are breeding this blight on our society. The kids of the parents who ARE doing their job right are being killed by the kids of the parents who aren't being PARENTS. That is a tragedy.

It doesn't matter who the government was in the past or who the government is now. We collectively as Bahamians need to fix this! We are watching this cancer spread through our nation and yet are not reacting sufficiently to stop it.

The RIGHT THINGS need to be done, and NOW!

Agreed. Now, are you going to help the government with this situation?

My problem with Dr. Minnis is simple.. and all know it.. IT is the enviroment.. Nassau ti too dirty.. ONE year later and Nassau is worst.... a plan has to be developed to clean up the city RIGHT AWAY... BUT IN DOING SO.. the enviroment needs to be protected.. a GREEN policy has to be developed....
Who said this was my horse?. Stop trying to guess and ask me.

i disagree. dr minnis is cleaning up lil nassau. garbage is being picked up etc. the problem is that as soon as it is clean litter is right back on the street. but i would like to see him focus more on these vehicles that pump out black smoke. especially these dump trucks, jitneys and trailers. thats alot of air pollution. also begin knocking down these old buildings and removing more derelect vehicles from bushes and off street corners. :hammer::hammer::hammer:

This is your Govt, what happen to the 18 point plan in the manifesto?. The PLP had plans for downtown, you all put it in the garbage, sorry, no you all dumped it on Bay Street. Nasty buggers.

Now leave the y'all outta dat....I een never one day push no chile out and if I did they wouldbe under heavy manners, discipline would be the order of the day!

But don't u have the in road to these ppl - tell Dr. M what your beef is! I think a far better job is being done in keeping the country clean - we also have to play our role - look at the thread I started on Goodman's Bay on Tuesday!

Nasty buggers, we need a garbage patrol an special court to carry these buggers to. Instant justice,make them clean up 6 miles of trash if you are caught littering.

When I was in Nassau last, I saw a sight that warmed the cockles of my heart. On Bay Street, the popo had a couple of young men up against the wall frisking them for weapons.

I hope they locked them up, probably trying to sell the tousists drugs or steal. Thieves.

ahh well. blacklist here we come.

It is wrong for anybody to get shot, much like a tourist. Putting us on the blacklist now will make no seance, cause tourist not travelling here now.

There is a problem with these food stores.. useing these plastic bags...
There is a problem with these styrofoams that we Bahamians love to eat out...
There is problems with cars that are spilling bad odours in the enviroment...

Gabbage collection, cars on the streets..... stray dogs, Nassau is too dirty.. it needs to be clean up and we are moving too slow....

I'm not even going to quote the post above, as it is absolute nonsense.
