People wonder whether Prime Minister Perry Christie listens to himself or just runs his mouth without even thinking.<\/p>\nPeople wonder whether Prime Minister Perry Christie listens to himself or just runs his mouth without even thinking.<\/p>\n
Recently, the befuddled PM expressed concern over his own personal safety as crime continues to rage out-of-control,\u00a0 especially in his own constituency.<\/p>\n
Mr Christie said that a recent government study of crime locations has revealed that, historically, the two most crime-riddled areas in New Providence are the constituencies of both National Security Minister Dr Bernard Nottage and himself.\u00a0 These two constituencies played host to a large percentage of the country\u2019s violent crime.<\/p>\n
Doesn’t that say everything?<\/p>\n
Finally, we understand how Perry Christie ever got re-elected.\u00a0 His votes came mostly from criminals… people who knew that by getting rid of Hubert Ingraham and electing Mr Christie, they could get away with almost anything.<\/p>\n
In a recent public address, Mr Christie was apparently confused when he said , \u201cI spent my life in the criminal courts.”\u00a0 The fact is… Mr Christie, who is a lawyer, has spent his entire life in politics.\u00a0 Most people can’t remember Mr Christie ever even appearing in a criminal court.\u00a0 Not in the last twenty years anyway.<\/p>\n
“I also come from a constituency where I know young men who are charged with murder and two murders. People who you can go out in the streets and talk to on any given day, some of them are great young men who have made terrible mistakes,” PM Christie said.<\/p>\n
Most Bahamians think\u00a0 that committing a murder sort of takes one out of the “great young men” category.\u00a0 And many regard murdering someone as more than just a “mistake”.<\/p>\n
Perhaps Mr Christie’s perverted perspective is responsible for the rampant crime that is destroying our nation.<\/p>\n
Christie also mentioned the failure of the police and the courts, \u201cThey have put young men out on bail for serious crimes, when there should have been a charge of murder, …we have no system in our country.”<\/p>\n
Mr Christie was addressing the business community at the opening of the 2014 Bahamas Business Outlook conference.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt makes no sense to put all this effort in the economy, to have the minority of young persons destroy our country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
An odd statement from the man who is supposed to be making sure that The Bahamas provides a good environment for business.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have positioned on a map every robbery of a tourist, every home invasion where it took place every shooting every murder every traffic accident and we have demonstrated that the preponderance of the shootings, and robberies are in two constituencies,\u201d Mr Christie said. \u201cOne by the Minister of National Security and the other by the Prime Minister.<\/p>\n
In other words, Christie’s entire political career has been fueled by criminals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
