Clearly the Bahamas needs assistance with road traffic issues, however in light of the current new road situation I think a Canadian consultant is a big fail. Was it not Canadians that facilitated the construction of our new roads now? And look how lovely that went...Baillou Road is a complete mess, East Street South coming from Robinson Road is a complete mess, Prince Charles another mess...all they did was waste good road space. A bunch of narrow behind lanes, wide medians and sidewalks that no one uses. They could have done so much more with the space they had...instead they blocked off certain roads, made them one way, and then narrowed the lane so traffic at around 5 is like being in a sardine can. Meanwhile a different company facilitated the roads out Cable Beach and it's a big difference.
It's been stated many times by many sources nothing you post online is private. Even when you delete it there is a cyber footprint that always lingers behind.
I see you spewed your usual irrelevant and silly comments...but I am coming to expect stupidity from you and no longer will respond to you. Just adding fuel to a fire already build by an idiot who clearly as no real grip on reality.
Can you for a second stop being a complete nincompoop (although it seems you may be one of the stupid ones that can't help themselves) and realize it isn't about social media posting. It is about the callous and disrespectful remarks made after the killing of people.
As former US military personnel I can say without a doubt her comments more than offended. It was downright disgusting and unnecessary, she is lucky all she got was suspended and visa revoked.
This obviously wasn't a children's party, or it may have started as such but turned into an adult affair. No way does a children's party continue until 10pm. When I was a child any parties we had ended by 5pm and we were in bed by 8pm.
But then again in this day and age could have very well been a child's party complete with bouncing castle at 10pm- cause half these parents have no parenting sense or skill.
It boils my blood how Bahamians always want animals but can never afford to keep them. Just like this article said the previous owner was a hoarder who couldn't be bothered to get the animals fixed and thus created this problem. Now these innocent animals are the ones that suffer because of her cruelty.
I hoped they fined her at the least to help defray some of the cost associated with the BHS getting them cleaned and fixed for new homes.
No , she should have be arrested not just expelled. She threw away her valuable chance at education when she thought that it was okay to post her comments on a social media access to which millions have access. This clearly shows not only a marked lack of judgement but a serious underlying issue.
What if this behaviour had just been the beginning of something bigger? I use to feel the same as you do, but then I've been robbed at gunpoint, had my apt broken into among other things. And I started to wonder if that child who stole money out their mother's purse and was never fully corrected could be that same person stealing as an adult.
I recall as a child I stole some money from my mom to buy a bag of salty and a cup. Most children probably do this- but it's the parents reactions that may be the determining factor on if this behaviour continues and possibly escalates. My mom placed my hands on the counter top and bruised my knuckles with a wooden conch beater. To this day I have never stolen anything- that lesson will stay with me the rest of my life.
Point is...she needs heavy punishment. For herself a lesson needs to be taught and for others to see.
WOW!!! You are just saying this to get people riled up. You can't possibly believe something like this is a joke.
You think the family's of the victims at Fort Hood would find her comments funny, People DIED!!!! Children are without parents, a spouse lost a love, a mother lost a child, people lost loved ones- that is never to be taken as a joke.
Whether she was having fun or not the matter remains what would make her think it would be a funny situation. A kid being a kid saying stupid things does not take in account being deliberately callous and disrespectful about the senseless death of other humans.
She deserves to be punished and made an example of for other to see and take note. You say it may be a joke but when does a joke go to far- I am sure the parents of Lindhurst Highschool, Columbine Highschool, and Virgina Tech, students would disagree.
This is a crucial step for the Bahamas- this may or may not be the defining line for these kinds of incidents. I am not saying it couldn't happen, but who knows, maybe a student seeing this situation who might have been thinking of mowing down their school may think twice now.
This country can't afford to let anything slip underneath the radar- we are fighting for our country. We are in a downward spiral and it is clearly starting at the school level. I hope they do more than expel her and take her traveling visa. They should press some kind of charges to show this type of behaviour will not be tolerated and actions have consequences.
