This will take our legal system to a whole new level of corruption of the most frightening kind. Lawyers and their clients lobbying for the "right" judge to hear their case will take on a whole new meaning. The one thing our corrupt political ruling class cannot stand more than anything else is our Constitution and the protective rights it gives all Bahamians.
Too many senior judges, now in their twilight years, condescendingly think that they themselves are a superior choice to a jury trial by one's peers. They and other judges will naturally be biased in determining the outcomes of cases where a defendant is "of their own kind" in our society in terms of upbringing, literacy, education and overall social standing and stature. No one person should have the unconstitutional judgement power being proposed in this ridiculous legislation.
Bottomline: To many judges have allowed themselves to become lazy legal louts who really do think less educated persons at the lower end of our society's social spectrum are not capable of serving as a juror. Yet somehow they believe that very same type of person as a defendant would be capable of understanding the consequences of waiving their fundamental constitutional right to a trial by a jury of their peers.
Only lazy judges unwilling and/or unable to communicate with and properly advise and instruct jurors have a reason to fear the dumbed-down D- educated jurors that the failed education and social policies of the political ruling class are responsible for having created in the first place. Yes, it often involves more work on the judge’s part to educate jurors on important aspects of the applicable law but that added effort helps to preserve some of the most important principles behind of our judicial system.
It seems dumber than dumb Pinder and our corrupt PM Davis no longer consider the many D- educated in our society to be their peers when it comes to jury trials. These two demented imbeciles, and the lazy judges who wish to be elevated to God like status over the rest of us, are hell-bent in their efforts to do away with one of the most fundamental constitutional rights of the Bahamian people, a sacrosanct right that no Bahamian should ever be encouraged by his or her appointed lawyer or any judicial officer to somehow waive.
This clown Laroda, like all the other PLP cabinet ministers, always promises to conduct an investigation of one kind or another of the serious matter du jour, but never ever reports back to the Bahamian people the findings of his investigation of anything.
The population of The Bahamas is about to skyrocket when you consider all of the many children of the thousands of Haitian men who entered the Bahamas illegally over the decades but were nevertheless wrongfully given citizenship in exchange for their vote or for cold cash under the table, or for exploitable labour purposes. And these same Haitian men have many children living in Haiti as well as in the Bahamas.
Our already over crowded and under resourced public hospitals/clinics, public schools, social welfare services, etc., etc., will never be able to cope with the explosive growth in our population from the impending influx to our nation of thousands of children in Haiti fathered by Haitian men who entered the Bahamas illegally over the decades, and by hook or crook managed to obtain Bahamian Citizenship from our corrupt government officials.
You seem ignorant of the terrible conditions under which Jews around the world had to live for many centuries. Their ancestors have a lot more in common with our black slave ancestors than many of us might know or care to think.
Yes, the Almighty God will remain, but let's hope the State of Israel will remain too. Remember, it was necessary for a lot of non-Israelis to perish by drowning when God closed the Seas parted by Moses. Threatening to annihilate God's chosen people comes with much loss of life for which the fanatical terrorist leaders of the State of Iran should be held fully responsible - not the Israeli government. Negotiating with fanatical terrorists has never really been an option.
This matter goes a lot further back than the 19th century. Chapter 3 of the good Book of Exodus says all there is to say about God having given the Jews (the Israelites), as his chosen people, claim to the Promised Land of Canaan, now know as Israel.
And stumpy dumbo Davis has no difficulty in squandering $200,000+ dollars of the taxpayers' money on a brand spanking new BMW so that he does not have to experience too much discomfort when being driven over all of those deep potholes.
The maintenance on stumpy Davis's new BMW will also be costing us taxpayers a small fortune because no car can withstand the beating put on it by the extremely poor condition of many of our roads today, especially on New Providence Island.
Grand Bahamians need only look at the dismal failure of this corrupt Davis led PLP government to address BPL's many pressing problems here on New Providence to know that the last thing they need is government making an illegal power grab to seize control of Grand Bahama's electrical power generation and distribution systems.
Or could this whole contentious affair be nothing more than an extortionist attempt by government to fleece the owners of the GBPA of mega millions of dollars based on some highly controversial and confidential report that PM Davis commissioned PWC accountants to prepare, no doubt at great cost to us taxpayers? And an even much greater cost for us taxpayers are the mounting bills of the two foreign KCs PM Davis has engaged to represent the government in this black mailing effort. What a sick joke all of this crooked nonsense is.
These dolphins are a sought after delicacy in Beijing. Can we give them to the ChiCom embassy in The Bahamas for export to Chairman Xi Jinping's dinner plate? This would surely please the Biden administration.
