At one point my opinion was, ‘So why doesn’t the Christian Council stay out of the devils business?’ They know what Carnival is about so why not let the devil have his day? But after seeing some of the photos and video clips of Carnival. Women, very much undressed, and men drunk to the point of losing control of all their bodily functions. Some dumped and abandoned on the sides of the streets, puked up and reeking of urine and yes, even feces. And the wining and grinding. Some men definitely under the influence and so vile and aggressive, females having to fight them off, over and over again. Yes in the public streets of New Providence where people had gathered with their children to watch what was was no less than an X Rated porn show. Live and in living color. And the woman who seem so comfortable walking around and parading with barely nothing on. So the Christian Council has every right to speak out. So does every right thinking Bahamian with a sense of dignity. And as one preacher said ‘they are bringing what is already in them. But at least save that part of the parade for after you reach the park. And then there were the fights. Bottles bursting over heads. Persons being stomped blows flying left and right. The Christian Council has a right to speak out to call for some sense of decency, decorum and law and order.
#The infant will be seventh in line to the British throne and Queen Elizabeth II's eighth great-grandchild. Harry is the younger son of Prince Charles, the next in line to the throne, and the late Princess Diana, who died in a Paris car crash in 1997.
If they all live as long and healthy as the Queen, it will be a long wait... Congratulations on the birth of a healthy child.
It seems that since John Bull has become a regular target of these type robberies, they must now do more to enhance their security and make themselves less of a target for thieves.
In light of the Sandals incident where a butler was accused of groping a guest (matter headed to court) and the incident last week where a jet ski operator was wrongly accused of sexual assault and spent two years in jail awaiting trial and the apparent intentions of the accuser was to sue the government, police must now look more objectively at these matters. The credibility of both the accuser and the accused must be examined. And while no one has yet been charged, the story makes the front page under heading. "Tourist victim of PI sex assault." So the Tribune has already did an investigation and made a determination, even before the police investigation is complete or charges have been filed. In the case of the jet ski operator, he should sue his accuser for the time spent in jail, loss of reputation among other things. But just getting the burden of these matters off his shoulders he would probable chose to walk away a victim. And his reputation destroyed forever.
If Tal Russell Pisistratus had to sell newspapers for the Tribune that newspaper would have been broke even before Christopler Columbus set sail for the new world. So they continue to insult Bahamians with his incomprehensible rhetoric.
There are many more "Taylor Industries" out there just on the brink of closing. And government, in their ignorance or misinformation, continues to tighten up the screws and speed up the process. since 2008, many businesses were only surviving because the owners and/or shareholders continuously pumped thousands or even millions of dollars into the company, only hoping that one day the company would only break even, if not turn a profit. But day after day, month after month, year after year, they saw declining sales, losses that could not be contained and less prospects that they could turn the business around or continue to support it financially. And some tried venturing into other businesses and others tried to downsize and for some the only other alternative is to close and lock the front door, For good. The major purpose is to make a profit and once that objective cannot be achieved, even in the long term, then all other objectives become moot, at least eventually. And while tourism may be booming, it is an economy that no longer or barely supports the local economy. Most of the tourist industry is off shore and hardly even transacted in Bahamian dollars or not even converted to Bahamian currency nd when all these
