What the average Bahamian fail to recognized is that Freeport only makes up 1/3 of Grand Bahama. The Government control the other 2/3 of the island. The government have done absolutely nothing to improve the 2/3 they control.The neglect is so blatant that within 2 feet of leaving the bonded areas that defines Freeport the roads go bad just like everything else under government control.

Another problem is the callous attitude with regards to taking away a person freedom exercise by the police on a daily basis. I had a group of my workers pile into a car which happens every day day to go to the bank. Police officers stop the car and found a joint in the car. Even though one of the young men "man up" and took responsibility the police lock up all six young men from Friday afternoon until Monday morning. Four of the young men have never saw the inside of a cell before and now you want these young men to adopt the slogan,"the police is your friend". You got to be kidding. This scenario happens on a daily basis and is the major reason why our young men detest the police.

The long arm of the constitution stretches the entire breadth and length of the Bahamas, well except the four walls of parliament.

Is that the reason why we have thousand of foreign women flocking to our country to marry Bahamian men. Come on people, make sure your reasoning is sound.

If bill 4 passes it will give them all the rights they need. I could see an activist judge interpreting bill 4 to means, "equal rights for all". A simple legal argument is once a person is born male or female, do they lose those rights on becoming a transgender male or female. The answer by the privy counsel will be a resounding no. All the rights they are born with including the one to marry continue indefinitely unless they don't have the mental capacity to enter into a contract. The only other time you negate rights is when you are in prison.

I guess the vote "no" pastors ain't as shallow as we thought. Some of us thought, they must have lost their mind to request funding from the government. Crap, now the Bahamian people have two horses to feed.

Your emphatic "none" written above states otherwise. You knew the truth but to boost your argument your provided some intellectual fallacy to support your lie. Even when caught, you gave voice to the description, "the truth is not in him."Nevertheless, you still miss my point.In other words,don't expect the same level of judicial prudence from a 43 year democracy when compared to a 240 year old democracy.

Wrong SP. There was one conviction and jailed Bahamian politician. If we were to use the link you prescribed it shows 1 US politician conviction in the first 20 years of the US becoming a nation with a population of 4 million at the time. The Bahamas showed 1 conviction with a population of 200,000 in the first 20 years of it becoming a nation. Do the math.
