Soooo tired of this nonsense!
Ya really, and these proposed “gangsters” can’t even shoot a gun.
dont temp them to get better they can shoot…and wehn they start shooting better all ya gona do is complain, about the madness thats happening.
Well i hope the police are looking at the times when these shooting are occuring as i am just a regular Joe in the street. Can’t they see that they are occuring at police shift changes and slower periods of patroling in the day and night. Come on people pay attention and lets switch up some things so we can actually catch some of these so called “gangsters” please ……… all they are, are puppets mimicing what they see on tv and then acting it out and failing miserably at it. The only thing they are succeding in doing is making Bermuda an even more unsafe place for people to visit that in turn kills out economy.
