Comments
The Bahamas is undergoing a massive assault by ultra-violent criminals since it abolished the death penalty. They should start by stringing up the criminal lover lawyers in the legislature. Leave their corpses dangling from street lights every block as a warning.
A statute should be enacted to mandate all adult citizen pack a gun. If a violent crime is taking place, and the citizen fails to try to shoot the criminal, fine him or her $50. There is a moral duty to kill all violent criminals. It should become law. The statute should immunize the patriot trying to defend his nation from the ultra-violent client of the lawyer.
