Shut up birdie. Catislandboy is absolutely correct on his assessment of things. In case you haven't realized.... human beings are carnal creatures. This means that if their situation deteriorates to the point of going hungry or feeding their families, they will resort to the most primitive form of survival necessary to provide for their loved ones. It's not something they're proud of. But they do it to survive! Have you ever had to watch your children cry themselves to sleep for hunger??? If not, then be quiet!

I don't support drug dealing either..... but if I had to choose between selling dope or watching my children starve...... guess what..... I would be selling marijuana on the corner, too. And I'm a physician!

And although you don't want to acknowledge it.... the PLP is indeed a huge part of the problem! They have created NO opportunities for young Bahamians, while simultaneously increasing the cost and burden of living by initiating a bogus, unlawful tax system on them! You had better get real and stop talking shit on this website!!

@birdie. You're blaming the pastor for people not giving their hearts to God??? Seriously??? I wonder if you really pay attention to some of the things you post on this site.

Serving God is a choice that comes from the individual themself. No one can force someone to lead a godly lifestyle. Once again, you're just trying to adamantly defend your PLP party.

Yeah but the problem with HAI is that he seemed apathetic when it came to the immediate concerns of the people. He was dismissive, bullheaded and care-less about the things Bahamians deemed important.

The simple truth is that Bahamians suffered immensely under the FNM. In my opinion, Hubert Ingraham was on the opposite end of the spectrum of Perry Christie.

One leader is too hot..... the other is too cold!

Did Bernard Nottage just say that he knew gun violence was high in the area, but he had no idea of the extent???? This man clearly needs to step down!! Is this dude serious??? Does he live on this island???

I swear.... this man, along with Perry Christie and the rest of the PLP are obviously detached from reality???? Where are these dudes living????? What are they smoking????

You're in charge of national security and you don't realize that there's an unprecedented gun and crime crisis on our hands???? Man get this man and the PLP out of here!!!!!!!!

Right???

That's horrible. I'm willing to accept it now. The Bahamas is finished.

Lol lol lol!!

Ok. I can accept that. Thanks for the insight.

Spoken like a true FNM! A mindless drone, with a horses bridle in its mouth, unable to summon unconventional methods to improve his current situation.

First of all.... the only voice that existed under the FNM was HAI. The rest of its members were just sycophants. McCartney made the mistake of assuming that he had a voice too..... and that's when HAI abruptly and embarrassingly dispelled him of that notion.

Second of all, your suggestion is actually the main cause of much of the political fiasco going on in government today! The entire reason that neither the FNM or PLP have worked is because they've realized that they don't have to! They relish in the fact that no matter how disappointed Bahamians become with their lackluster, bungling, trifling, incompetent, practices of governing, we actually still have to surrender our votes to one of them! To this I say "no more!"

How would you feel if you were forced to choose between an abusive spouse or an unfaithful spouse..... and that's all you had to choose from??? None of them would feel compelled to change knowing that once you tire of the other, you'll be back. And while you're bouncing back and forth between the two, they're busy laughing at you and exploiting you!! This illustration draws an exact parallel of what's going on in the Bahamas!! It's time to put an end to it!!

Voting for the DNA has more to do with ousting the lunacy of both the FNM and PLP, than it has to do with the DNA itself. This would send a transperant message to both parties to shape up or ship out!! History books are filled with men and women who's initial reaction and rebellion to a failed political system seemed reckless and unbecoming at the time!! How many civic and political movements and causes were propelled into existence by just one man or one woman who at the time seemed rouge and irresponsible??? The answer is, MANY!!

If history maintained your ideals and your one tracked mode of thinking, none of the great things that great men have accomplished throughout history would have ever come to existence!! You and many other Bahamians are victims of mental slavery!! Free your mind and think unconventionally at times!! Think outside the box!! Nothing is impossible! And if ever the Bahamas needed to send a clear message to both the FNM and PLP that we are not drones.... it's now!

You attempt to portray Branville as being toothless, but yet you admit that he caused your FNM the last general election. If you were in the habit of reading history books the way that I am, you would not be so quick to dismiss Bran. Nelson Mandela started out as a poor, lone voice, with only two or three supporters as well. But look at what happened! He ended up liberating an entire race of people!! For Gods sake..... take the shackles off your ankles!!

Oh geez.

I can truly see why the national GPA is an F. People like you have a mental block when it comes to comprehension. My above mentioned post simply suggests that the DNA does not have ENOUGH competent people at this time to contend for the government. But that can all change if Branville solicited the assistance of the right people. I wasn't saying that their current members are not competent. I was saying that their issues are more quantitative than qualitative. My comments weren't meant as an indictment against the DNA nor am I pushing their agenda.
My focus is more concentrated on sending a direct message to the FNM and PLP.

Some of y'all Bahamians so dumb man. Pick up a few history books and read sometimes. Maybe that'll improve your intellect and understanding.
