It's only because they(governing elites) don't want him to have a rally, they fear organized demonstration of the Bahamian people. I don't see much sense of policy from him and his party, but the way the government is responding will only make him more popular and justify his action.

He essentially is not allowed to make a stand wherever it is most damaging to their image, whether it be Parliament Square or Baha Mar sidewalk. PLP refuses to accept they have lost the adoration of the Bahamian people just like their buddies the FNM.

I think people don't understand or see justification in the legality of what they are doing. In a democracy you can't have shadow laws that give you extraordinary powers and expect citizens to be ok with it.

What law gives anyone the right to be arrested on public land in such a manor.

Make her GG, she has held and served in more position in government than any woman or man in the history of this country.

Why doesn't NIB invest in stocks our something, The Ontario Teacher Pension invest in everything under the sun whereas NIB just throws away money.

Decisive action on solving the crisis in Haiti, discussing Bahamas-caricom relations, and Requesting American increased assistance on cracking down on the gun trade.

Good Night

It's the governments responsibility that its citizens can access good housing. So the government should work to find her family a home once they apply for one. However it doesn't excuse the nature of these developments. The shanty towns cannot remain and should have never been allowed to be put up.

Seeing she's only 15, most likely she was born here and should be entitled to citizenship at age 18 so her and her family are at no risk of deportation. It is a shame she has to work so hard just to make ends meet. However, there are explicit things that must be done to ensure a higher standard is kept so it must go ahead.

We can only build so many houses for so many people who can't provide for themselves. Its not about sympathy, its about the reality that lenience and slackness of standard only make things worse in this situation. It continues not, end the problem

Because their are thousand of people who will say why not me, I can break the law too and we don't have the resources to give housing, schooling and most importantly healthcare. Unfortunately, individuals who end up in these situation don't understand is the last thing you should be having is children, let alone 4,5 & 6

PMH has no beds, schools are overcapacity, housing as the situation is, in short supply. If you have the right to be here then you stay, if you don't you go. Sympathy can be given but it will only lead to death and more suffering.

Well whatever he comes up with and commits to we'll just have to see. Although, I do agree with you I don't think the Bahamas is best suited engaging any land conflict or occupation.

Whatever we contribute should be strictly logistical or maritime and anything related to those things.

"We shouldn't send our NAVY to fight a land war"

Yeah, the solution to solve traffic problems is to add more lanes, nothing else. Better Public Transit couldn't be a solutions. Although, what should you expect from someone who is never ride the jitney. I just wonder what they''ll think of when there is no more space to add lanes.

It's quite clear the for the short term we will benefit however the only reason anything is happen is because sebas blew his whistle not because they saw the need to do it.

Precisely, also the government there keeps accurate tax and property records.
They refuse to send out anyone to properly collect data and surveys on land ownership & who owns what.
