All very true and I wish the island would come together more. Sentence 2 of above is the only I disagree with (but understand); in the sense that you may honestly not know that its on your property. Whole point of perfect hiding spots.. Risky but worth it to the fools using safety areas.

@Tooth Fairy. WELL DONE.

and that individual has the nerve to put the name GOD as their penname. There are a number of others out there that are doing the same thing.

I said it before and i’ll say it again……. Political GANG MEMBERS.. I’m baffled as to which is worse.

Politics are the law makers who decide what law enforcement should enforce. This means they are one of biggest influences on the choices others make. Laws that are made to control substances do not work & only aid to influence a lucrative underground market for the substances. JVC is not going to clean up something that will affect their ease of cash flow even if it means a safer neighborhood. Since OBA want to go with God on this I have an metaphor for them. They are playing God in the jungle forbidding the crocodiles they are not to eat the deers & the deers they are not to drink from the water the crocodiles inhabit. The biggest mistake government past & present have done in this God metaphor is not to give the deers an alternative drinking source for water & to trust that the crocodiles will abide by God’s law over the law of the jungle even if the deers don’t abide either because they feel the need to quench their thirst.

Welcome to the jungle OBA. If you want to play God like the past governments have & continue to forbid people from putting what they want in their bodies. Maybe OBA should read The Bible’s book of Genesis & see how well forbidding someone from putting something in their body worked with the God of Abraham. Maybe OBA should stop focusing on what the PLP did & start focusing on what they & UBP didn’t do.

These wanksters are already taking out bounty’s on each other but there is no dead or alive deal just dead. Their payout sum is the props they get from their wankster peers. Unless the law was changed to allow free lance bounty hunters who are licensed to be able to carry a gun & defend themselves with it when needed no one in their right minds is going to go after a wankster that may be armed when they are not for any amount of bounty.

OBA promised to legislate a law that allows the use of confiscated drug funds to pay for solutions to fight gang crime. This is where the money could come from but they need to stop twiddling their thumbs on it & act IMMEDIATELY. Instead the first thing OBA jumps at is term limits & meetings with churches both of which won’t do any good if gang crime keeps escalating. The reason these moves are futile is that the church leaders are far out of touch with the street life & that IB even without term limits is not going to set up shop in a wankster infested environment. There should be over millions in the police lockup that was confiscated in drug bust all thats needed is a laws that allows use of it to fight gang crime. That is if all the confiscated money is still impounded. HMMMMM! I Wonder!

everybody knows the player in their area so we can’t cry when something like this happen and this doesn’t go just for black people because there are a lot of big time white drug dealer out there as well who are armed and some of the black one come to your area to buy from them it only a matter of time before something happen in your area as well. Yes they are family yes you grew up with them but who are you going to blame when it hits your door step?

With a reactive (not proactive) and weak police force this is not going to stop, gun crime under the current police “leadership” has soared beyond anything we in Bermuda could ever imagined. The bermuda police are totally incapable of dealing with or reducing it. We need a change at the top , we need to have someone who is not afraid,connected or related to these punks with guns, and before you cops jump on me whining about how well you do, just look at the stats, nothing personal its just FACTS.

I know it may be a bit extreme. I feel if a gun is found to be harboured on your property, your property should be seized.
The people choosing to protect these shooters are just as bad as the one pulling the trigger.
OBA lied to all of us, get over it. They know they have no teeth when it comes to this. I do recall “…our hands will not be in this….” being said in the post throne speech comments.
What will it take for Bermudians to pull together on this? This is a national crisis. Innocent people have been killed. Why do we have to wait for it to get worst before we act. This ‘Reactive’ style of doing things will not move us forward.
Peolpe need to understand that stray bullets don’t discriminate and could just as well hit a child or baby. We shouldn’t not wait for such an event for us to stop this madness. Stop looking for OBA and BPS to save us, We need to save us. This can spill over and end up in your backyard very easily.
When a guest worker or a tourist gets shot, then you will see swift and unrestrained response. As long as we are killing ourselves, No One will come to help. What I find sad is that four guys were flewn in at night and there was such an out cry, but people getting shot on our shores moves no one.

@ god1st….. I see that, that thing,which holds your ears apart is doing just that n only that. The emptiness vouchers for your idiotic remarks. So @$$inine. And by the way get your grammer in order n maybe you will understand what the OBA is trying to project.
OBA has to clean up PLP’s mess before they can start their own plans rolling. And what a mess they left this island n people in.So stop being a dinkle berry. U R 2 sandwiches short of a picnic n don’t know where the beach is. Pay attention, then try to think before u open ur empty barrel. Make some more idiotic noise.

We all bicker, fight and throw nasty insults at one another then have the nerve to run others down. Bermudians just don’t know how to get along. This island is just closing in on us and we are fighting each other like too many fish in a small bowl. I agree, PLP or OBA it doesn’t matter as these guys don’t care. Its not like December 17th they all laid down their weapons in fear. One point I want to disagree with is about buying the guns. A lot of these guys are drug dealers and a gun in hand is worth a lot more than 10G. They share it around, so 10G or even 20G is nothing to them. One gun victim had almost 200G in his house so they are not broke at all. I think it’s fair to say give the OBA a chance. I trust that they will get tough. One thing we need is another operation cleansweep. Clean up this island from one end to the other, and don’t back down no matter who is involved. I don’t doubt there are some big names mixed up in all this (particularly drug dealing) but sweep them up with the rest of the garbage and dump them ALL in the trash where they belong.

I hope this dont come across as sounding insensative,but both @god1st and tooth fairy,government spending or not spending has nothing to do with crime.the O.B.A. has a plan,please tell me what the heck they can do that will change the cruel minds of those who have become heartless and have no regard for life.

I dont care which government you put in the madness will not slow down until you target the right people and there are far to many that benefit from the under world,that do not run around the streets or have guns in their possesion.

There are far to many that look like the O.B.A. and act like the P.L.P that are the culprits behind the madness that is going on in this country,greed has over taken to many in this land and those that are making a mint out of it,dont need weapons to protect themselves,and the wanna be is the ones that is trying to mark territory of who holds the power by who holds the piece of metal.

Unfortunately to many jokers come on here under pen names with comment that dont add up to a hill of beans,because they dont have a clue to what they are talking about,just making noise to try and hear their ownself,while there are others who truly want to rid this country from this foolishness and that is why we dont hide behind pen names.

So the next time someone was to talk stupid about how much the P.L.P waisted from the public purse,or how the O.B.A has this plan that will actually work,think again and stick to the subject and no that if they start by targeting the right people then they will see results,the unfortunate thing is when these young robins make the mistake of crossing the wrong path.

@ Tooth fairy Christianity came from the creative minds of Human beings just like any other supernatural religion. The Bible that you and Deacon so and so read comes from Byblos which is Greek and it has the reputation of being one of the oldest cities in the world.

@ tooth fairy you are worshipping a fairy tail and who told you This GOD that you pray to exist. Your nothing but a false prophet and i don’t follow the leader O.B.A had their opportunity before PLP took the reigns 98. Lie to the public make a promise to suspend and review term limits for 2 years before the election a few weeks later after they won the election what did they do abolish term limits. BOB barker and The O.B.A are gonna create 2000 jobs of course not they must have seduced you because that is a big lie.

You mentioned sermon i hope you aren’t listening to T.D. Jakes or Creflo Dollar the 2 of them are snakes . T.D. Jakes kisses the popes ring and creflo abused his own daughter.
