The thing is they already had a convention not too long ago and Minnis was decided as the leader. There comes a point when the party needs to stop all of this bickering and get behind the party leader, whoever it is. If we don't have a united party we will lose the election. They need to sort this out. A house divided cannot stand.

I feel like Perry Christie could walk inside your house, slap you cross the cheek, call you a fool, and you would still vote for him.

I truly think Brave is the worst of the lot.

Nice to see some good news once in a while on this page. He sounds like he's got his head screwed on right. Best of luck to him.

What in the world are you rambling on about?

Abaconian says...

Illegal immigrant or not, "human rights" are called so for a reason - they do not discriminate between race, nationality, gender, age, religion or creed.

Upholding the law and the Constitution is an essential characteristic of a civilised society. I don't care if the man is illegal or not, he should still be afforded with due process of the law. To ignore this fundamental tenet of our legal system is to spit in the face of centuries of human progression, and shows a lack of respect on the part of the government for the Bahamian people, not just the Haitian man in question.

You may not consider this to be a pressing issue, and I totally understand why you might feel that way. But let me ask you this - if the government is willing to ignore basic human rights and the Constitution in this instance, do you have faith that the government will uphold the rule of law in other instances- instances that might have a more direct impact on Bahamians? See, that's the thing with law. You don't get to pick and choose when you want to abide by it. I see this case, and cases like it, as a symptom of a much larger issue.
