		<description><![CDATA[I am sitting here reading all of your comments, yes Williams comment wasn&#039;t necessary.  All of you make me smile, it is okay when you write insulting remarks about individuals, but when the shoe is on the other foot you all feel it is terrible or that individual is wrong.  I am not one to comment on these blogs, but reading the sourness from most of you it is really a shame. From what I read from most of the OBA members it truly seems as if you are the ones that have most of the racist in your hearts.  No matter who is in government, the issues in Bermuda and worldwide will not be solve by men.  Only one thing is going to bring about true peace, happeness and joy, that is God&#039;s Kingdom (Daniel 2:44) I will leave you all to continue with your bitterness!! I would rather wait for a perfect and peaceful government without sour grapes, which leaves a bad taste in my mouth.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@ Yeah Why? Good Question: The nearest police station is enough of a distance away that the lawbreakers (whose activity has increased considerably since the St. George station was closed) are able to disappear before the police arrive on the scene. 
Last I heard, scofflaws roam the streets in little gangs, intimidating, bullying, and generally being a nuisance, if not engaging in actual criminal behavior, with impunity.

Personally, if I was being threatened by a couple of bullies, I wouldn&#039;t want to have to wait a half an hour or so while police negotiate that narrow, winding road to get to my aid. The bullies could do a lot of damage in that space of time.

St. Georgians protested when the station was closed and have begged to have it reopened ever since. Who feels it,knows it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I agree, we spent millions on all that gear, CCTV , RFID, none of which works, or they don&#039;t know what they are looking at, and private systems give far better picture quality. And the laws definitely need to be properly enforced. There&#039;s a police station at the old navy base gate, surely they could patrol and deter in St. George&#039;s]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bernews decided not to let my last comment through so ill try just a summary of facts.

Crime was soaring when the current BPS management took over, and it only has continued to soar since then.

Who armed the police was the premier and commissioner in office before the current commissioner took office.

Successful  Evidence and forensic training would be evident by the number of solved crimes increasing.

Implying Bermudian officers can&#039;t do their job is not why x-pat cops are here.

And as for me putting on a Poice uniform, I couldn&#039;t afford that much of a pay cut.

There are flight in and Out of Bermuda daily.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You sound like an x-pat cop, you ask who armed the police...Ewart Brown, the police were armed before the current comissioner took office and dont slam me for speaking what we all know as the truth, trained in anything means nothing unless that training is used to reduce crime, clearly there is and has been no reduction, and you want to take the blame from the guy at the top and pass it on to bermudian officers? there are flights out of Bermuda on a daily basis you know ,and as to puting on a police uniform, thats funny, I couldnt afford the pay cut! So stay in your bubble and think that everything is getting better and crime is getting less, or step outside with your eyes open and see whats really going on in Bermuda or just excercise your right to remain silent.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People remember what they want to remember so for the record lets get the facts straight,Mr Kenneth Bascome is the one to be recognized and thanked more then any of these in this photo.

Mr Kenneth Bascome has fought tiredly and hard more then any other Bermudian both publicly and privately,for the return of the St.George&#039;s police station to be re-opened full time.so to make a comment like you did was inappropriate,get your facts right first.

Then to say step aside and let real men do the job,I take a great offence to that and hope you can clear this up.the way I see it we can take that comment two ways,you are saying Mr Bascome is not a real man,then the answer to that is,your to dumb of an a$$ to know what a real man is. 

The second way to look at your comment that  Mr Bascome should step aside and let real men do the job,is that because you have white man standing there taking all the glory for the hard work that Mr Bascome has already put forth in his constituency,well my answer to that is,all the man in that picture are hard working Bermudians that for the most part put Bermuda first.

So overall you are talking out the wrong hole in your body and that my friend is the best way I can say it to you directly online.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[idiot crime was already soaring when he took over, it was his leadership that has seen more criminals put before the courts far quicker then we have seen ever before. No country solves every murder. He took over the seat right at the time when we had 12 murders of the christmas break. It was him who armed the police, got them trained in foresics and advanced investigative techniques. What are you talking about? no other commissioner has been faced with the level of crime that we are seeing today, that is by no means his fault. The Commissioner is only as good as the officers that police the island and since Bermudians dont want to police thier own island, stop damn well complaing unless ur putting on a police uniform.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What we see here is part of a long and complex process to insure public safety in the Town of St.Georges.
When the PLP decided to remove the proper effectiveness of a Police Station from St.Georges thats when all
kinds of malicious criminal acts started happening.
No Police Station in a town is bad -thats very bad- but it just showed the people that live in this area just how much they care.
So it&#039;s clean up time and perhaps some people don&#039;t like it - but &#039; despite all the personal remarks on those involved 
the people expect them to do there jobs.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An absolute photo op and a meeting to appease the OBA, while I applaud the intentions of the OBA it requires leadership and the Silent Commissioner cannot lead or direct anything including his own people, crime has soared during his tenure and he has done NOTHING about it, clearly he is afraid of something or someone, it is a travesty that we allow these supposed &quot;leaders&quot; to hide behind an office door all day waiting on their pension to kick in while we the public have to endure the effects of horrific crimes being committed and rarely prosicuted in our country.

We saw the same comissioner meet with the PLP with virtually the same discussion and with no results, why should we expect better this time? There needs to be a change in the manaagement of the BPS and appointing someone to lead who has some balls and is not afraid to tackle the growing problems, we have one of the best equiped but least effective police forces on the planet! Mr Governor surely in your experience you have seen this type of mismanagement in ther UK, are those people still doing that job?..we think not.]]></description>
