**She continued: “But none of the things going on around the world, none of them make sense. They resonate emotionally but don’t make sense anywhere in the world. They are going to lead to a cataclysmic uprising, bloodshed, everything, it will happen.”**

Jesus! Dr. Bethel foresees the end of days. Maybe a little too hysterical???

Another one for open borders.So easy to call people racist who are just doing their job to secure the borders. Police are racist. Countries are racist. Wealth is racist. What isn't racist? Poverty and Crime. Everyone gets a Venezuela. You get a Venezuela and you get a Venezuela. I guess we shouldn't have laws, because we're afraid of a violent uprising?

I trust that she will not be a part of a violent uprising. like burning tires in the street,
her response to the situation is a poor one as there is all ready to much violence
in a once peaceful Bahamas.

Geez, she does not mske sense. Tell her try moving somewhere else in the world and try to live there illegally. Lets see what happens.

Is this a round-about-way to get Bahamians to agree to amendments to the constitution regarding citizenship?

What a bunch of word salad

Dr. Nicolette is entitled to her own opinion.

We are also entitled to ignore it.

That is what happens when these "smart" people kids use Bahamas Government scholarship money and go to uppity First World universities ........ they come back (home) to the Third World talking ass

Sheeprunner12
What do you call it? BRAINWASHED UNCLE TOMS.

Yep ............ Like Fweddy

If you're looking for violent uprisings Doc, look no further than Haiti. They get violent if the price of gas rises. Hmm... You said it will happen here? You saying Haitians run this country and we should shut up and sit small?

Talking shyt is a very serious ting! And Nicolette Bethel has a "Masters" in talking total bullshyt!

If we do not protect our borders and heritage, "other people" will claim them as their own. Where and what will descendants of Bahamians go and do when "others" take over our country while THEIR constitution does not allow anyone without bloodline heritage to obtain citizenship regardless of circumstances and or investments?

Nicolette Bethel nor anyone else EVER calls or describes the Haitian constitution as Xenophobic, but they are quick to jump on Bahamians who are similarly protecting our rights as a people!

Let the violent uprising begin, as I and everyone I know are ready to fight and die for our childrens' BAHAMALAND!!!

Yep ........ tell her go read Haiti's Constitution ....... those 80,000 Haitians living here who are trying to claim Bahamian citizenship are born Haitian (based on theirs).

If the illegal foreign infiltrators do not like what we are enacting to protect Bahamians, then they can exercise their ONLY rights as illegals and that is their right to carry their collective asses back to where they came from !!!

Lol all I can do is laugh at the comments it's a lot of uneducated people who yet did pay attention in school or yet paid attention sad but Tru no one saying not to protect the border and here's a reality check for you uneducated people the land you people never went to war for is already been sold if you look around Chinese are buy your corner and your block every time you turn around in look you people are so blinded that they want you to focus on things that not a real issue but yet if a person is already blind then there's no way you can make that person see untell it happens you see what they doing in Freeport yet y'all sit here and argue about the most unnecessary foolishness I give Nassau another 5 years for it full with Chinese and whites vat is going up again and again and yall focus is on the wrong things I can only laugh at the sad uneducated people who are quickly fool by the wrong things yet I haven't seen no one will to fight again the Bahamian government because you and I know they don't care about you never did and never will

Who is the you and the y'all?????? ......... You sound like a true true bar room drunk, for sure.

Marco. You're educated, then? Calling others uneducated? With not one period in a whole paragraph?

Lol! Not even a period at the end!

His poor grammar detracts his whole argument!

Be careful fellow Bahamians. This unconstitutional new immigration bill would give Bethel and her ilk 75% of what they have all along wanted. These proponents of open borders are not satisfied with that though. They want by hideous way of further amendments to this unlawful bill 100% of what we (the Bahamian people) voted against when we last voted on the citizenship amendments to our Constitution. Don't be fooled by these blithering imbeciles.

We must learn to take responsibility for our actions or failure to act.

This has nothing to do with open boarders. If the Bahamas Defence Force (Bahamian manned) had done there job we would not have all this foolishness in the first place.

Interesting how quick some people are to blame the foreigner and conveniently let the biggest offenders (Bahamians) off the hook.

Thank you, Dr. Bethel for your courage to express your considered opinions. You must have anticipated the reaction from many of our fellow citizens for whom nationalism is a wonderfully positive attribute intricately tied with the policies of the early plp which supposedly led the "true" Bahamians to the land of milk and honey. Political and religious beliefs are notoriously blind to the appeal of reason. The Wehrmacht Republic was made up of millions of citizens convinced that nationalism was the answer to their nations problems. A belief that persisted right up to the outskirts of Stalingrad where the magnitude of the lass of human lives could no longer be ignored. Obviously our country operates on a vastly different scale but your warning is both timely and pertinent.

'Reason' you say? Lol!

You realy need to go and re-read the "Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" . . .the "Wehmacht Republic" was build on the pre-Hitler Germany where the four contending political parties wrangled for government. . .the Wehmacht supported the Chancellor and whatever party he supported. Fritz Van Papen was not Nationalist. . . controlled the Wehmarcht right up to 1937. . .when the Nationalist Adolph Hitler became Chancellor. . .raised his own army. . .the SS and Storm Troopers . . .the millions of rough necks who were stronger than Van Papen's Wehmarcht. . .thus swallowing up the Wehmarcht . . .hence the rise of one German Army under the new Chancellor. . .the SS, Storm Troopers and the Wehmarcht. . . it remained like that until the Berlin defeat in 1945.

As for blind to the appeal of reason. . .just the opposite. . .the elite and educated were the ones blind to the appeal of reason. The poor and Jews and the Church were the ones who were "sketchy" about Hitler. . .he out maneuvered the "educated" elite in the Bundestag and ride to power among them. . . then improved the economics of post-Versailles and Locorno Germany. . .Hitler had very little support from the Wehmarcht and the poor Germans since his rise to power as leader of the Nazi Party!!

I really hope she's right = basically the only thing that can save the bahamas as a country is a massive change in government. The best way to get the change historically usually involves some form of Anarchy. Yea Lady what the Bahamas needs is that pure state of state of disorder and absence of government before we can completely rebuild our governement and we can ever truly be free Bahamian Citizens. It's too bad Bahamian Politicians will still have to be involved because they can screw up anything and everything.

What is a "massive change" of government? ......... Like 1967????

Do you think that will ever happen again?? ....... Except you mean the Haitian uprising

I think yall forgot one thing. . . something the rest of the world has not forgotten since 2 April, 1982. . .Argentina invaded a small group of islands named the Falklands Islands.

The conflagration was know as the "Falklands War". . .the sleepy British Empire raised up its aged head and inflicted an ancient sting on the behind of Argentina for "tiefin" its land. Haiti will never try taking over this place. Britain will teach her a lesson that no CARICOM nation will ever forget. . . THE BAHAMAS WAS GRANTED INTERNAL GOVERNMENT. . .BUT THE QUEEN REMAINS HER SOVEREIGN HEAD!!

They also remember the Parsley River Massacre in October 1937 when over 10, 000 Haitians were butchered when they made the mistake and tried to enforce their will on a fellow nation. . .

This whole Bill needs to be re-though. It contdicts the Contitution, and makes us going backwards into a Fascist Government!
