Maybe they should float an IPO. Then give every Bahamian a share. They will be the ones paying if the project fails anyway.

The laws for one must apply to all. And this battle with Nugget, et. al., has ran on long enough. Two million will not cripple Nygard nor send him to the poor house. Maybe it’s a matter of ‘ Even after I settle this claim, will I be able to lay back and lick my wounds in peace, then move on with my life.’ Knowing the nature of the beast, the android a negative.

Nice Photo Op anyway. But they say judgment in the church begins at the pulpit. And so it is with crime and law and order in a country. It begins with the minister of national security, the commissioner of police and the police force. And to enforce law and maintain law and order the police must also be law abiding, both as private citizens and as law enforcement and peacekeeping officers. How ever will crime be brought to a head if whenever there is a major crime, the police go out and injure physically or mentally dozens of young men or other citizens in their hunt for the person who committed the crime. Marvin Dames it is your charge, if that in 2018, your police officers have to beat and force suspects to sign confessions and admit to crimes, only to find that the case does not stand up in court. There’s been a massive promotion exercise just before the last election but how qualified are your policemen? How many of them have sat in a classroom since basic training? How many have had specialized training or have gone on and gotten associates or bachelors degrees? The time is now to bring the Royal Bahamas Police Force into the new ear. The one of new innovations and technology. Criminals and becoming more brazen and getting smarter at crime. Time to start investing more in your men and making then the Bahamas finest officers. Get rid of rogue officers and those who refuse to improve their education. Intelligent and educated officers do not prey on innocent civilians.

Can someone please explain this: marijuana stocks are now actively being traded on Wall Street stock market. These stocks represent research companies as well as companies that sell or plan to sell medicinal or recreational marijuana. Both Bahamians and Americans are allowed to legally purchase and trade these stocks. Hasn’t the time for these countries to establish a clear policy on marijuana so as not to appear to be hypocritical or (in the case of the US) contrary to their own actions.

Their payments to Ash would've appeared more legit if they did not cancel the plan for the post office, without a good and workable plan to replace it. Work on the property for the post office relocation was already in progress. But nearly two years later no clear solution in site. Not even on the horizon. Too much cherry picking to boot.

Say policy and the feds grab up one school boy and bring him to Nassau cause he had one small amount of marijuana on him. Bypass the Abaco legal system completely for a cup of coffee. Details about this to follow.

The greatest disappointment with this FNM is they appeared to come out the gate swinging in their effort to stamp out corruption. But it now appears that not only are these efforts falling apart but the FNM seemed to have their own set of money grabbers. And, even at this stage, there seems to be no clear plan for reviving the economy or no general direction for governing the country. Just one crisis after the other. Some starting to believe it is more than lack of experience that is causing the Minnis government to appear weak and failing.

Remember when everything was about the ‘gingseng root? And persons spent hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars on this substance with the expectation. It would raise the dead or, at least revitalize it. Then ginseng was suddenly an ingredient in everything. Companies made millions just adding it to their list of ingredients or selling fake products. Today the average person doesn’t even know what it is.

Well remember the US sprayed paraquat ( a dangerous and banned poison) on marijuana fields in Jamie’s and Colombia and Mexico for a number of years. And these are some of the symptoms to ingesting that drug. And other symptoms for inhaling it. The whole legal marijuana thing, first as a dangerous drug and now as a miracle cure all and as a super wonderful recreational drug is an overkill. Researchers are already reporting that some of the herb (no it is not a chemical). does not have the medicinal properties in significant amounts to be beneficial to patients. And even some strains sold as a street drug has no ‘high’ but is more addicting. Hopefully the marijuana fad will quickly fade. Would most people who smoke pot want a cola or beer lasso infused with weed?
