Micheal Pintard is clearly delusional. Confidence in one’s ability in one thing; but being realistic is another. And while he may be a very nice person, the Bahamian electorate does not view him as a viable leader. This is yet another example of one selfish individual placing personal desires ahead of the country itself. Step aside Mr. Pintard, so that the FNM can realistically contend for government.

I respect your position, however I don’t think it’s going to work. Dr. Minnis has lost the trust and popularity of the masses. Politics is all about perception and popularity and Hubert Minnis is unfortunately lacking in both. His face is permanently tied to the hardship of hurricane dorian and the Covid 19 pandemic. And while both disasters were acts of nature, the heartless and in-compassionate way he presented himself to the Bahamian people will never be forgiven.

What needs to be confronted is you and your government and the crisis in leadership plaguing our nation. A criminal attorney masquerading as a security minister thus creating one of the most flagrant examples of a conflict of interest, is what needs to be confronted. The fact that gun violence has killed more Bahamians than cardiovascular disease, yet while you were minister of national security gun-seizures were in decline, needs to be confronted. The fact that you serve as a criminal lawyer, a defense minister, and attorney general, yet your government has failed to cripple an ongoing gun-trafficking ring, needs to be confronted. The fact that government officials, RBPF officials, and RBDF officials are being investigated by the U.S. State Department, needs to be confronted. The fact that you have made no verbal indication regarding seeing this matter resolved, needs to be confronted. Either your government is incompetent and impotent, or your government itself is complicit. Which is it Mr. Munroe? We already know what the youths are doing. They’re eating what on their plate. We don’t need you to tell us what the “youths” need to do. We need you to tell us what YOU are going to do.

Criminals interrogating criminals. The Bahamas isn’t a real country, folks. Smh. The public needs to demand that cameras be placed in these police interrogation rooms. Do these idiot police officers not know that any testimony or evidence given under coercion can be deemed inadmissible in court? When are we going to transition into a real country and leave the “banana republic” bull-crap behind? Smt.

Inexcusable, sir! You are totally out of line! A perfect microcosm as to why our country is in such a deplorable and morally decadent state! This is felony assault! How is it that a senior police officer is unaware that he is bound by a code of conduct whether in or out of uniform. And the fact that he feels comfortable with this type of behavior in a public forum speaks volumes! One can only imagine what takes place behind close doors! This deplorable behavior by law enforcement personnel cannot go unpunished. The tribunal has no choice but to make an example of him!

Gives new meaning to the term “hot-patties”.

Very sad story indeed. I feel horrible for the family. I’m no fan of the RBPF but I imagine it would be very difficult to hold someone criminally responsible unless there was evidence suggesting reckless driving or a hit and run. Nevertheless investigators should express some compassion by updating family members as to their findings. Family members are victims too and should not have to continually prompt police officers for updates regarding matters such as this. Our people are so careless and heartless. No professionalism at all. Smt.

I agree with Mr. Bastian in theory but in practicality I don’t.

As it currently stands, Bahamians haven’t demonstrated the ability to consistently operate and manage complex technologies needed to support fluid infrastructure. Brief example, take a look at BPL. The simple fact is, our people nor its government has invested or laid the educational and developmental framework necessary to meet today’s technological demands. We simply have not built that foundation. Technological concepts and frameworks need to be built from the ground up. As far as I know the Bahamas doesn’t produce any computer programmers, electronic coders or software engineers. These people are the actual scientists needed to build and connect these complex computer systems. And because we don’t have these human resources readily available, we end up having to outsource these jobs to North America or Europe. The best we can hope for is to establish various over-site committees to monitor operations and regulate profits.

Is this a joke?
Prayer is not going to impact this disease festering in our country.
Murderers need to be executed. Period. The problem isn’t the criminals running amok in the Bahamas, but rather our derelict, decadent government who outright refuses to eradicate the criminal element plaguing our nation. The Bahamas is suffering from a crisis in leadership. Every time we vote PLP or FNM we contribute to the destruction of our country. So here we are.

The U.S. doesn’t have to rely on blackmail tactics in order to influence our government. They own the Bahamas already. We rely on them for sustenance and survival. The fact that they haven’t disclosed the perpetrator is solely due to diplomacy.
