The US even has a towns called Lynchburg. Several. Google the history of them. America must fix itself. Some people are genuinely afraid to travel there under the present conditions.
When Cain killed Able, God said I will not put you to death. I will put a mark on you so that wherever you go on the earth, they will know of your deed. And Cain said, ‘This punishment is more than I can bear. Once they know I have committed murder, they will come after me and try to take my life..’. Thou shall not kill ( commit murder). Ain’t nothing changed.
That is like Joe Biden asking why the mass murders ( condolences to families and friends of victims of recent killings it the kindergarten school, at the church in California and in the supermarket) continue to happen and why they are happening mostly in the US. Well Unca Joe Biden needs to ask himself two questions: Have he forgotten about the thousands of innocent people that were lynched in the United States? Some strung up in trees and hung, some dismembered, some burned alive in their own homes and with entire families? And (2) why does Joe Biden continue to allow his police force to operate like a lynch mob ? Still, killing innocent people ( on camera) for simple traffic stops, still bursting into peoples homes and killing innocent (sleeping ) victims, not unlike what was done here. Yes, but the latest victims of the last shooting was little innocent children. Little angels. That is the problem. ALL of the victims were innocent. And ALL the families and friends and loved ones felt the same pain. ALL. You cannot fix America or The Bahamad, for that matter and leave some crimes undone. For example, where is the boat captain who shot at police and customs officers? Where is the resident of the gated community who is supposed to be serving time for killing her husband? Who is responsible for saturating this little country with guns, high powered weapons even and contributing to the murder problem here. Joe Biden says the mass killers have mental problems, but what about those committing murder with a sound mind and still a clear conscience? Is America imploding?
Most of what Hubert Edwards is saying is uncultured bull$hit! Even before one can get into the crux of the matter ( ok waste matter) explain this: the numbers of Bahamian taxpayers have increased over the past fourth years. The amount of taxes paid by each individual Bahamian has increased over the past forty plus years. The number of non/Bahamian high net worth businesses operating in the Bahamas has increased over the past forty years. But the cost of living for Bahamians had increased astronomically over the past forty years. But the quality of living has probably declined over the decades. Hardly any major capital works since the Ingraham era. The lights still go off and the roads are deplorable. And the national debt is through the sky. So where the heck is the taxpayers money going?
Why are all the images of persons suffering from monkey pox Black persons when none of the recent cases are Black people? Again to widen the racial divide worldwide and put into the minds of the public that it is Blacks who have the disease. It is Blacks who are spreading monkey pox, Blacks are to be scorned, Blacks are to be avoided. But the new wave , they say originated at a (gay/bisexual) event in France and the spread in the US has some link to prairie dogs.
A talk show hostess was virtually bragging how all U S airlines have abandoned mask requirements on all flights. She went on to say how she wandered around the US mask less amongst other hundreds of (strange) people, then hopped on a plane and came back to rejoin the Bahamian populace, not sure if she had Covid, monkey pox or Joe Biden. The host went on to say, probably in ignorance. ( it out of it) that she didn’t see why Bahamasair did not join Other ({American) airlines and abandon its masks requirements. Well, firstly, the doing away with masks mandates across the US and on US airlines was not all mandatory. It was mostly the result of a judge ruling that mask mandates were unconstitutional. And many Airline personnel, stewardess especially, will tell you they would prefer to have the masks back, And our own figures indicate that seventy five percent of positive Covid tests are amongst persons who travelled internationally and for most of them, the US was their destination. But who with any iota of common sense could be calling for more relaxing of Covid safety protocols, when the numbers speak for themselves? And this week especially, when the numbers in the Family Islands are up and some islands are seeing new cases for the first time in months.
The fact is there is NO shortage of revenue available to the government and no shortage of revenue GOING to the government. The fact is there is gross mismanagement and misappropriation of government revenue. And fact is everyone appears to be getting away with it. The scam is to tax tge drawers off Bahamians. Make life miserable. Reduce the standard of living and increase the cost of living vis a vis increased taxation. Then everyone becomes poverty stricken and must rely on the state for survival. Welcome to Cuba, Bahamas!
Is this ‘New Day , yesterday ‘ government mismanaging the new Covid surge? Everyone claiming to have symptoms and the numbers testing positive increasing exponentially, but the government still sitting on its hands with no mask on.

Why are Bahamians paying more taxes to their government to receive less and less in return?
