More crimes because they know they have a very little chance of being caught or properly prosecuted by the current ineffective management of the BPS

Roban implies that we should feel less safe under the OBA. This is confusing. When you look at the crime statistics while the PLP were managing government, crime was much higher. Also when you look at the five year to year chart, murder-down, robbery-down, most are trending down. I think the most disturbing one is an increase in crimes against children. All considered, to answer minister Roban: Yes sir, I do feel safer with the OBA.

There is no possible excuse to do malice to your neighbor and never steal from a thief.

It seems that unemployment in Bermuda has increase, please everyone do your studies. If more Bermudians keep loosing their jobs I can say Bermuda is really mess up.

@Hmmm, no they don’t have the time do you know how busy they really are, the O.B.A/u.b.p work very hard, they came in swinging and sweeping with a new broom, do you know what it took to transfer all the ole Bermuda deep pockets money back to our shores, after the ole money left because you got a P.L.P Government.

Then they had to find money for the america’s cup, and take from our seniors, cuts in education, increase in cost of living and taxes, pushing around the immigration issues for sometime and now that all the work is almost complete they want to now deal with sex, of all things. like they are not tired of working, who can think about going to bed and who to sleep with, but i guess it is important enough cause with the gaming bill, I think next on the order paper is the red light district, so now it be legal and you have to pay for sex.
Well if that is the case don’t forget to give us back our direct flight from Jamaica, cause I am not sure but I heard the best Collie come from dere so must well legalize that and get a direct flight from Colombia cause the coa coa plant in it’s purest form seems to be big business here, especially for your suit and tie industry here.

Might be wrong but if you want to get Coxall out of retirement you may need a shovel.

Would be nice to have another of his caliber here again. Since he was ungraciously escorted off the Island we have had nothing but useless heads of the BPS. Just because you are Bermudian & have put in the time does not make you fit for the head police job.

How can there be a claim of a decrease in crime when in almost every catagory there is an increase or more or less the same 2014-2015.

2011-2015 numbers look better but we seem to be on an upslope again.

Per capita our police force is huge. Crime should be much lower.

Will someone please find us a National security minister who actually knows what they are doing, and while your at it maybe we can bring Mr. Colin Coxall out of retirement, or ask him who he would suggest for a suitable replacement of the job he left undone,due to the O.u.B.p.A Forcing him to leave the island, I look forward to reading his book which maybe can not be released during his life time, but I hope he has it drafted.

Maybe Mr. Johnathan Smith can make that his next project. I think he would be the ideal one to bring us the truth forward, since he also sat in the hot seat of being the Police Commissioner, and just maybe he can give the Premier some real training on protecting our country.

To the Bermuda Police service, I truly believe the man and Women in the service do a job that needs to be commended, but no thank’s to the photo up Premier, or should I say National suppose to be security minister, who runs from his own shadow.

According to news reports crime is up, I have not heard of any government department or any agency offering its services to the community to help those inclined to commit crime, suffering from anger issues, depression, abuse in all forms, re-training. I speak to this, cause I believe this will help. There need to be evening counselling services available, 3pm to 8pm, cause not every-one can take time off their jobs. Agencies and Government need to broadcast what they have to offer.
