Well said jackbnimble... he doesn't have a racist blood or body cell in him, let alone a racist bone. Mr. Wells failed us all in his comments. He owes Mr. Lightbourn and this Country an apology.
TalRussell, though they sound similar, there is a distinction between a 'racist' point of view and a 'racial' point of view - if that is what you meant to say. In ant event, I wrote an essay on this subject. Lord Denning of the House of Lords etc etc etc... was accused of being a racist; whereas, he being an mathematician, and, at the same time, a top legal jurist, was cognitive of the racial distinctions that can influence human behaviors from one ethic group from a next. As a consequence, he gave an opinion and was accused for making racist remarks. He was old and took this as a signal to go into retirement. Knowledge is key my friend...
Who was Adam and Who was Eve? Don't complain Adam... Don't say the woman you gave me made me do it... take responsibility for the choices and action you make!!!
Politics can expose one to any number of mindsets. It brings together men and women from all background and walks of life. This is often necessary in order to get things done and promote peace and harmony in an orderly and civil society. However, this articles demonstrates that anything said by a Bahamian Politician of very light pigmentation run the risk of being interpreted and called by the lowest, primitive and base mindsets as being racist remarks.
On one hand, if the white Bahamians were not to get involve in Bahamian politics, they run the sure prospect of being called racist elitist. When they do get involve, thank God they do because we all must, but whatever the contribution they make, or say, it is susceptible of being called racist remarks by this base few. Mr. Lightbourn ought to know by now that this sort of expression represent only some... but the majority of stable and right thinking Bahamians can filter this bitter and vile diatribe out and disregard it as pure hate. He must rise above it as he has shown himself to be able to.
But coming from a 'Statesman', the comments made by the 'Honorable' Mr. Tennyson Wells cannot bid well for his reputation to promote a peace and harmony in Our Beloved Country. The vileness of his statements voice the echoes of a senile mind already in an advanced stage of mental regression. To compound his psychosis, Mr. Wells is driven and blinded by his own hate and personal regrets.
We all should be aware and cautious as to what we allow to filter through to our minds. Thank you.
IkalikI, you of all people should be out there encouraging people to register to vote. Because, boy, if this situation don't change, we will have to have you on suicide watch. You are so passionate for a change.
mr. adrian gibson & company... welcome along. We thought you all would eventually catch up; even though, at times, I thought it doubtful. Anyway, better you be late than never. But there is another connotation of fact, one can be called 'Too Late'. Let's hope this is not the case here.
Look... we are underestimating the outfall of this Zika virus. It has major implication and all the issues we are complaining and being confronted with is pale in the light of this disease; and the fact of its transmission. It is borne by mosquitoes and sexually transmitted.
