Looks like no weed for Xmas this year! Nothing’s on the street right now, thanks to this bust. The first drought in years! Look for lots of alcohol-fueled fights around town! When the weed don’t come around the Natives go a little bonkers….

Nice try though!

Good Day All,
I agree that names should be WITHHELD, as mentioned, some people may have just been in the vicinity. It is extremely unfair to name individuals because their entire future would be affected, even if they are not involved. How many people do we all know who have been to court, been found NOT GUILTY, but their lives are still negatively affected? This includes the US Customs in Bermuda who CLAIM they don’t have a stop list but still don’t allow these CLEARED people freedom to travel through their “full of drug pushers, murderers, thieves, drunk drivers, pedophiles etc.” precious USA. Hello – wake up people, think how you would feel if your family member was an innocent bystander. Sign me KEEP NAMES WITHHELD UNLESS FOUND GUILTY……

@sure – let me try and write that for you cause DANG what the hell is that supposed to say. Is it –

“SMH It gets worse and worse now days. Bunch of dummys. Think Westgate needs to be a little bigger now. Don’t you think.”

Yo. Notice the fullstops, the capital letters at the beginning of a sentence. I honestly can’t believe you wrote the word WORSER. Did it even sound right as you said it in your head?

I’m only doing this because if you wish the public to read your comments (which you ARE entitled to) at least try and make it understandable. It took me almost half an hour to try and figure out what that ONE line meant.

@ nojustice: Where in the article does it say that it is weed? Some of the comments on here are hysterical, I love how the Bermuda public assume so much before getting the facts.

If the economy gets any worse than your going to see all kinds of people getting involved in illegal activity’s to make money.
infect when the economy was doing good people were importing drugs so can you imagine what’s its going to be like – but than again maybe not because there no money floating around like it used to be so there will be less people purchasing of drugs.

@falsesuspicions, I hope.

Firstly, I would like to make the point that a fair majority of the world’s most successful people are so, not solely because of an education but rather by hard work, sacrifice, dedication and discipline. Though education is an asset, character is, in fact, the defining factor of one’s integrity and ultimate success.

Secondly, it is a shame that certain people have such a difficult time appreciating and understanding the success of others, without trying to besmirch their character and legacy. This is a moment that calls for a little self-reflection. As Bermudians, we should not be intimidated by others but be inspired. We need to uplift and encourage those who have made sacrifices and legitimately reached their goals.

Keep in mind that Limehouse lane has more than 8 residents!

Unfortunately, no degree teaches common sense and tact.

Signed;
NOT for the endorsement of the importation of narcotics BUT rather the support of hard working Bermudians who deserve more than to be stereotyped by an envious individual.

I’m 20 and disagree. You should know right from wrong by now. It’s up to us to make a positive change, not follow and do even worse.

Stop trying to make an excuse for the idiots in our generation.

lol it’s funny to see some of these comments. because if the culprits were between the ages of 15-25 ALL the comments would be completely different….the acts of the youth come from the examples set my the generations ahead of us, so next time a young bermudian is on bernews for doing something and getting caught think twice before you comment.

I know a few people who live on Limehouse Lane . Some fall into that age bracket too . I hope it’s none of them but it has to be said that they all happen to have done very well for themselves despite barely having anything more than a high school education.

But it seems as though a certain segment of Bermuda doesn’t notice such things . They just have unjustified envy towards people who ”don’t look like them” that got an education and then made huge sacrifices to save and get ahead the legitimate way.

I anxiously await the release of the names .
