Let me get this straight. Has One Eleuthera, a charity non profit, been used to trick us this entire time when in actuality the true puppet master was a for profit Lighthouse Point Partners???? Tell me it ain't so.

Guess who may have been hired by One Eleuthera? Not another one of these battles between the Government and the upper crust. Groan.This is getting repetitious and boring.

I implore the Bahamas Government to pass a law that no foreign Government, namely China, shall be allowed to own key infrastructure in The Bahamas, and no Bahamian Government shall be permitted to enter potential loan trap agreements with China. I have looked at The Pointe just now and it is very impressive. It is also scary to know that this key feature of the Bahamian economy is owned by a foreign communist power. In hindsight, The British Colonial should never have been sold to China. The Pointe should have been built and owned by the Bahamian people. The Pointe gives China far too much leverage over the cruiseship port, Baystreet and The Bahamas economy! I believe The Pointe will turn out to be our "island in the South China Sea moment" (Perry was our Obama that turned a blind eye), and we will regret the sale for decades to come.

Unrelated to this but on my mind, has anybody else noticed how quiet Minnis and the FNM is on rebuilding Ragged Island? My prediction is that the FNM have already cut a deal for China to rebuild Ragged Island and provide a huge loan trap of a billion dollars. Part of the deal is that China would own the Ragged Island port (which
they would likely turn into a military base of sorts). The project was green lit, until the US dumped water on the fire by declaring China to be a foe of the US (Pence speech). These are just my predictions not fact! I am writing them down in case they happen, so we can be prepared. Knowledge is power!

The heart of this matter is that for 40 plus years the black majority rule Government has given a free pass to black Haitians to emigrate to the Bahamas, because they were not considered a threat to majority rule by black Bahamians and enabled black Bahamians to continue their reign of stealing millions each year out of the government treasury. Had the illegal immigrants been white or light skinned, the black Bahamian government would have cracked down years ago and made it impossible for Haitians to gain citizenship and vote. The ultimate fear of our black Bahamian government is that a white majority and government would once again rule this country and put an end to 40 plus years of black power! As with most things in life, if you want the answer, follow the money.

There is an easy solution that should help: stop allowing Haitians to send funds back to Haiti. Haitian Bahamiand work here and send funds out of the Bahamas to Haitians in Haiti that use the money to pay a smuggler to bring them here. It's a viscious cycle, similar to China sucking money out of the US to build weapons against the US.

The real issue here is failure to integrate. The Haitians I have met do not seem to have any love for The Bahamas or Bahamians. They still speak Creole and wave their flag. This is the real problem. A house divided against itself cannot stand.

Re TalRussel The difference is obvious. Our small population makes us a much easier Target for majority takeover than US or Canada. Our black Bahamian population also makes it easier for Haitians to go unnoticed. If Haitians were green instead of black, you would run in fear to see how many are here.

We have Haitian spies in the system. People are actively trying to ensure a Haitian takeover of this nation by majority rule in ten years. Wake up! Permanent residence instead of citizenship is a no brainer. Our passivity will be our downfall. It is almost guaranteed that we will lose this country due to the negligence of our politicians on immigration. I applaud Mr. Symonett for having the BALLS to say something in this dangerously PC country.

This is a bigger problem than a few bullets. If these DR fellas keep this up, our oceans will be completely depleted and wiped out. In Africa, when poachers try to hunt rhinos they are shot on sight. I think we need to up our military game or they will keep on coming. Bahamas needs to put on some big boy pants like Cuba. Being passive is no longer an option if we are to survive.
