How strange. Why would only the white tourists be warned? Tourists of all backgrounds can be victims of crime. Or do only the lives of whites matter to you?
Why would only the black Bahamians be warned of American police? I guess you are of the belief that only blacks are being killed by police?

Obviously, you did not read the warning. Bahamians were warned, not just Bahamians of African descent.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the U.S. State Department issued another travel warning to Americans traveling to the Bahamas--four months ago. Yes, the violent crime rate there continues to increase, as any cruise company will tell you.

Thanks for the laugh.

Just the Black diaspora getting in on the act.

All victims or potential victims in the making.

Like right now blaming the military , the weather , the food for Micah Johnsons murder spree.

Always victims ...always victims

LOL...:. More like common sense. Name me one city in any country where it's a good idea to be confrontational with the police.
