Spoken like on who would do whatever a Dictator told him to do. A good meek and mild sheep.
By your argument the people of Venezuela should be happy with Maduro and endure the suffering that he is putting them through.
Their economy is in terrible shape and you will be appalled to hear that some dared to protest and object.
Minnis failed to make any contribution on a matter of major importance to the Country. He is the Leader of the Opposition, speaking out goes with the territory.
Minnis failed to do his job on this, and has failed throughout the last 3 years.
The political affiliations of the parents have nothing to do with those of the children.
If some, in Long Island, are up set because she stood up for something then we, as a country, are in serious trouble.
She was correct to put pressure on Minnis. He wanted to be leader and, having got the position, sat back and did not perform. LBT was being a responsible member of the opposition to call him out on it.
The FNM needs change and she is pushing for it. Without change the party is doomed.
So how are they going to deal with FedEx and the other couriers? Look at the tracking of parcels when you send one. Some items are delivered from here to the US in under 12 hours.
It is never a good idea to corner anyone. By the No we have cornered a number of Human Rights groups.
Don't be surprised if they now challenge everything, including Articles 15, 24 and 25 of the Constitution.
By whipping up such a storm over same sex marriage and denying women equal rights, a number of lawyers, supported by scholastic thinkers outside The Bahamas, working for Human Rights are considering launching a number of actions.
I am going to sit back and watch......should be fun to read peoples responses. Gays have never bothered me as I am a very comfortably heterosexual. I have always wonder why real men are so scared of gays.
Gays have contributed to our society for thousands of years, in the arts, entertainment, architecture etc. so I welcome them as my fellow human being and appreciate them for their contribution to man kind.
Think about it. Haitian sloop of that size with 199 people.....spfeed say 4 knots......days of sailing through Bahamian waters to get to north western side of Andros......what the "H" is the Bahamas Defence Force doing?
We can all vote No till the cows come home and won't make any difference if the Defence Force let's them come in.
I support Mr. Hepburn. The Utility company needs to be made accountable.
The problem is that the St. Georges own the Utility company so no one in the GBPA is going to do anything about it as the St. Georges are their bosses.
We must open immigration to give investors more comfort. Look at the Cayman Islands for an example of how it can be done.
We cannot ignore our poor educational system anymore. Nor can we ignore the fact that we have bad work ethics. We have no idea of how to be on time or deliver on something when we say we will.
Our attitude of I am Bahamian so I am entitled to this or that and the foreigner is satin has to change.

Check what Fred Smith Q.C. said, in the papers a few weeks ago, about Article 15.
Fred Smith has one just about everything so far. If he feels that Article 15 can open the door and he challenges it then the No will have become Yes.

Bahamians, tell your daughters that the good Bishop wants you to have sex out of marriage. Indeed, he has fought hard to encourage you to do so.
He has even congratulated Bahamians for voting No on Bill One. WOW! Go figure!
