Then there are all the police killings. Apparently double -digit police killings for every year of the Minnis Administration. Some where multiple victims (suspects) have been blown to smitherings by police gunfire. And not every victim Beas charged with a crime. Follow that up with the recent massacre of SIX young men, all traveling together and had their vehicle riddled with high powered assault rifles minutes after leaving police custody. And a young female and a child also injured in the gunfire. No crossfire but single direction gunfire. The police say they are following lead, but the Bahamian people don’t believe them. They don’t trust the police and many have drawn their own conclusions about who did the killings. Remember the fire in Jamaica a few years ago where a nursing home caught afire? Further investigations revealed it was not accidental bet deliberately set. Arson. All the exits from the building were blocked and all phone wires had been cut. Some 150 innocent senior citizens lost their lives. It was traced back to politics.
It is only exactly 1 year and one week before the May 10 deadline for Elections, 2022. So if the registration process doesn’t begin in earnest now, when will it be completed? So what are the benefits of a snap or early election? For sure the surprise has been taken out of it. Secondly, the FNM government finds itself in a position where it’s popularity ratings probably at its lowest ever, since coming to office as the government. And it is not due to one single factor, and not only the total fault of the FNM. Firstly, many Bahamians are suffering from Corona Fatigue. They want out, they want relief, they want their normal life back even if it means someone with supernatural powers must come rescue them. And if the FNM doesn’t have those supernatural Godlike powers then goodbye FNM! Then there’s this this ‘artificial’ push of the vaccines. A narrative that tells you to, take the vaccine, despite uncertainty, unanswered questions and definite uncertainty.’ Why not ‘continue to follow the safety protocols under you feel more comfortable about the vaccine.’ And the ongoing rift between the speaker and the pm. Despite who is right or wrong, the stain looks worse on the PM’s shirt than the speaker’s. Especially since the PM had rifts with other members of his party. Disputes that came irreconcilable
There is NO LAW, written or not spoken, that says two people in political or even government offices must love each other to death or even get along. BUT that is why systems are structured such that if there is bad blood between two people, like the PM and the Speaker, aids and assistants can step in and avoid business being hindered for lack of communication. At least avoid making a public spectacle.
Six families displaced, average of 5 persons a family. About 30 persons homeless, displaced, distressed, probably lost everything. The struggle is surreal.
When will these blockheads get the pointt: Vaccinations and Covid-19 tests are not the same instruments. One is like a passport and the other like a visa. They should not be use interchangeably but collectively. Minnis and others started the idea that once you have the vaccine, you ok. No need for a test. And that attitude is what is help fire the increasing number of cases. A vaccinated person with covid-19 but no symptoms and no test. has the potential to be a super spreader..Like rooster in a hen house
People struggling to keep light and water on so they had to give up cable and tv and sometimes the internet. And the general opinion is these services are to expensive. They tell you $65 for a basic package. But when they done add on other charges plus vat, that’s more like $100 a month. And sometimes they don’t tell you about extras, like if you watch movies or sports. So some people bill can easily run up to $1,000.00. Then there’s no choice but to have the service cut off,

Let’s guess: Next Minnis will say you cannot register to or vote unless you take the vaccine.
