Maybe that's the issue with this country. Everyone in charge has no experience or training. Maybe UB needs to offer political science as a major, and all aspiring politicians would benefit from one or two political science courses.

I have long said we would be better off if our aspiring politicians actually were trained in politics instead of just deciding to up and run for office cause they want to grandstand or come from a political party.

Gone are the days when you could just come up through the ranks. The world has changed, we need trained government and not the randomly appointed crony.

But eh.... that's my two cents

I see this being like numbers, only a certain few will have the money required to even start up a business.

Between purchasing your own land or leasing Crown land, and then paying for the different licences only the already rich will be able to capitalize on this venture.

Then what happens the rich get richer and the poor spends money to purchase the marijuana from the rich.

Sad but true....

Should it be legalized, I think so. But not if only certain rich people have access to being distributors.

Da fu*k... how many Bahamians die in America, do they expect a call from the president.

How many people die from traffic accidents, do you think the president calls each one.

Get the hell outta here... ya'll really think politicans have time for all this bs. Then when dudes spend all their time "politicking" then when do they have time to run the country.

Jeesh man...

Kml... they went to rush and spend money on things that come August will be VAT free. How ironic...

I went to college in 2002 and they had free contraception along with free testing at the on campus health clinic.

Again...arse backwards Bahamas.

Or maybe two girls thought to get chummy with the local men and when asked about it by their guardians lied about what happened. Wouldn't be the first time it has happened.

Let's not be so quick to pass judgement without first knowing the details.

I knew he would land on his feet. Now all the government has to do is hire him as the consultant on projects. He stands to make more than $48,000 a year.

I fail to see how a man who didn't complete his degree and only held the PS position for 1 year could have any real expertise to consult.

Whoever is in his ear, well played Mr. Robinson. These political parties always look out for their own. He publically apologized and now he's back in their good graces.

They can't give him the PS job back, so this is the next best thing.

Or licks 2... she wasn't payiing attention. Sad but possibly true.

Fact remains speed was a factor. Because had she been A. Paying attention to the road, and B. Doing the posted 25mph speed limit there would have been no way for her to have hit the barricade with enough force to move it back several feet- as stated by police.

Furthermore the damage her vehicle sustained and the lack of brake skids in the road also indicate she was speeding and didn't see the barricade with enough time to brake or swerve and thus not have direct head on impact.

She was responsible and I feel no amount of signage or reflectors on the barricade could have prevented this if she was in fact speeding and distracted.

Sad though it may be this family needs to accept the loss, grieve, and move past this.

Stop looking for a come-up and letting the wrong people gas them up on foolishness. Have some respect...

They aren't serious, it is an unfortunate situation that the young lady died but how is that the government's issue.

I agree with banker, Bahamians think the government is responsible for their poor choices. Calling for the resignation of Bannister is ridiculous and far beyond necessary.

If for every accident in the USA someone resigned there would be no public officials.

Fact is this family needs to grieve and move on, stop looking for a comeup and free government assistance on the back of your dead family member.
