We live in scary times, in a place that is changing for the worse before our eyes. What will happen if we don’t stop this Tsunami crime and violence in it’s path? What will happen to the Jewel of the Atlantic and it’s people? Remember the days when you never had to lock your house or even your car? They were not that long ago.
I remember going to church (St Joseph’s)in Somerset, we NEVER locked the doors or windows. Whenever we went out , same thing. What a shame!I think people have to start to get together and look out for trouble and start shining the light on these PUNKS. Sunshine is the best disinfectant. I wonder how tough they’ll be unarmed or alone? Cowards, that is ALL they’ll ever be.
Where’s all the outrage now that another person has fallen to victim to another bunch of thugs that are a detriment to our society?
Actually its probably the police’s fault anyways…

People have been brainwashed into believing that those were ‘the bad ole days’ …
Don’t want to go back there now , do we .. ?
Wise men of old, have said that times are changing in this little paradise. i asked how so and they replied that when a man wanted to build a house he told all his mates when he was ready. each one of these men had qualities that the other didn’t have and so they all bought them together on the site and erected the house together without cost to the man. the mans wife or mother supplied all the food and drinks and supplies to build the house. The house sometimes was finished in one weekend. this happened every time each mate needed each other. every man was happy in paradise. then greed raised its ugly head and things started to erode. and have been like that till now. we look at the past and condemn it yea,but if we look at it and take lessons from it we may find a solution to what paradise is ailing.they have isles that they used to house boys and help them to become men ,now this place houses monkeys and dodo birds so they wont go into extinction. a noble cause they say, but what about the extinction of men. Solid men ,fathers to boys that don’t have no clue to become men. for we live in a time that confusion is rampant among men and women that somehow we have lost our compassion and love for each other because of GREED. there is a generation that has been lost, and you cant get it back. you can however save the next.I’m just saying. peace
“Bermuda Is Another World” a song sang many years ago by the late Hubert Smith, unfortunately it is not the same as he sang in that song. He would be mortified if he were to come back and see what is taking place in the paradise he sang about all those years ago.
