    This act of violence is reckless and puts innocent lives at risk, which is totally unacceptable in a civilised society such as the bvi

    A deterrent is needed. 15 years in prison without parole if caught with a gun. Once a few are sentenced it will begin to stop. The lawyers who fight against this should get 20 years without parole for aiding and abetting.

      the police have to catch them first before your recommendations can take effect and best of luck
