    Here you are baskin in glory just because someone fell short. We need solutions not pollution. Stand up provide assistance where you can and be constructive.

      We need solutions not pollution… so why are you typing? Don’t gods have better things to do? Fell short? One allegedly assaulted another female, let me guess, she was trying/did get at her man. The other allegedly stole…candy, let me guess, she was hungry or was her blood sugar low? Solution 1, hate the player not the game, it takes 2 to tango. Solution 2, don’t eat candy, it decays your teeth and diabetes is a problem in our community. Solution 3, think about your name on Bernews before you do dumb sh!t. Good thing I’m here to solve everyone’s problems, if you need anymore solutions I’ll be finding a cure for the common cold.

    @Come Correct

    All i have to do is state the truth and you come running with guilt.So you have nothing to offer Bermuda hey.Nothing ever comes out of your lips of significance.My statement holds weight and substance and it is you who admires me that is why you are on my shadow trying to copy the blue print (greatness).On another note how many jobs have you created? Who in life that is about prosperity and wealth congregates with you ? I am sure you are fascinated with me….you must be in the mirror looking for me.For me it is healthy to engage in dialogue with you. I see you some what as a pen pal.Lastly there is no need for you to disrupt or try to thwart the truth.

    • Come Correct says:

      What truth?! What are you talking about? The only reason I respond to you is because on a scale of 1 to batsh!t you’re full crazy and I find that hilarious. I’m trying to copy your blueprint of greatness? These days I believe they call that delusions of grandeur and from what I hear MAWI has awesome drugs for that. If they still offered the $50 I would find you and turn you in because times are hard. Perception is reality and the only truth you speak is what you accept in your own little world

      False Prophets come and go…so WILL you!

      Bye @$$hole!

    • Come Correct says:

      Sorry my fat thumbs made me hit the submit button, I’m not finished. Who in life that is about prosperity and wealth congregates with me? My prosperity and wealth comes from my family and friends, **** anything that anyone can take from me. You and the rest of the party faithful sit on here and b!t@h about the system, its oppression and the people that gain more from it than you when the reality is you are jealous and would have no complaint if the roles were reversed. I on the other hand, have more than their money could ever buy.

    $8,000′s of court time for an $8 crime. Penny wise and pound foolish. There has got to be a more compasionate way.

    • Karma Chameleon says:

      It might stop others from thinking they can get away with the same. I applaud Robertsons for pushing to prosecute. People are way to compassionate these days. The side affect of being compassionate is that we often drop charges because we feel sorry for the person or because it is a small amount. So people often get caught stealing dozens of times, but because people are reluctant to press charges, when the police call in for their record, we are told…”its only their first offence”! So store owners and police let them go with a warning to stay off the property.! No punishment and no conviction means they can try it again and next time they get caught – if they get caught, it will still be their “first offence” and the pattern continues.

      Stealing is stealing, if guilty

  7. Prayerful says:

    I know that if guilty, stealing is stealing, but come on, $8.00. Sounds to me that the accused has some challenges.
