" That road is marked by increased public sexual indecency, crime and lawlessness, more broken families, more children born outside of marriage, more violence against women, increased sexual abuse, a failing educational system, lower productivity, and increased laziness, etc., as more and more people embrace the “live and wine” and “worst behaviour” culture of carnival"
Pastor Moss, why did you and your church allow it to get this far? Why do you continue to allow sweethearting? Why have you not taught the people about the 10 Commandments? People follow the example set by their leaders. The Pastors and Reverends with their sweethearts, their big houses and expensive flashy cars, the latter two at the detriment of their members economic survival, have set the stage for Carnival.
I say privatize it and let the fun continue.
I think that we should do it more like Brazil with body paint as a major part of the costume. Let us enjoy the beauty that God has created in its purest form of beauty. We are much closer than Rio and cheaper to get to. We could be the second Rio.
Government, don't let Hutchison promises swing you into doing something that all Bahamians will pay for later. That is why the PLP messed up so badly in Grand Bahama.
If you don't want to voted out in a couple of years you must be tough now.

Chester Cooper is making a great deal of sense. He can remake the PLP into a viable party again.
Brave Davis needs to stand aside and let Chester Cooper become leader.
