You are absolutely correct. However, your type of thinking may eventually lead to you being booted out of this country and your passport seized. We are just satisfied here to get "whatever we get". If tourists return, they return - if they don't they don't.
Clearly this man was treated unfairly. There was no reason they should have all been rounded up like dogs and taken to the airport and expelled. They should have been given the opportunity to leave the same way they came - that is, on their yacht. They should have been given that option.

Otherwise, what are we saying? If you come to the Bahamas you don't know what can possibly happen to you? You might be rounded up without warning and expelled and we keep your things and then charge you rent for us keeping them? Why would I go to a country like that?

I have not traveled anywhere in 16 months now - and the last trip was getting back home. I will go nowhere in the current global insanity environment because we no longer have human rights on the is planet. Human rights have been overthrown by "health" and "safety". Nobody seems to notice that have neither of those - but we still pretending that we have them in exchange for giving up our liberties.

"“They’re now considering the further relaxation of the mask mandate. Right now outdoors, it’s been relaxed."

What's been relaxed about it outdoors? Masks are still required in ALL public spaces outside your own home or vehicle. Someone please update me with a link to how/when this changed. Sorry I missed it.

Also, the Covid thing is fine, I agree with the PM - but what about the invisible Leprechaun virus. (ILV) ??? A lot of people are seeing invisible leprechauns all over the place even when they close their eyes. This is causing great stress, especially because invisible things are not supposed to be visible. I've heard there is a vaccine to combat this but it has not yet been made widely available - especially in poorer countries. I understand that the vaccine will not actually prevent persons from seeing the invisible leprechauns, but will prevent severe blindness and bad luck.

I is jokey boi.

So as soon as there is talk of loosening restrictions, "cases" start to go up. Interesting timing. Are these cases of Kalik or Heineken?

Yes, free speech is indeed a problem for dictators. That's why the Feds are trying to silence Musk now with fake investigations, the timing is very suspect.

Really???? Well then why don't you enlighten us with facfs??? How many school children have died from Covid since Feb 1sf???

I agree. I have no problem with children being prisoners as long as i can drive on traffic free roads. Good idea. We should even considers sending all children to a cay on Ragged Island.

How can she be thinking of schools going back to normal when just since the schools partially opened in January over 3970 students have dropped dead from Covid across the Bahamas? That's what I heard someone saying in a food store the other day. 2970 precious children dead, even though 1963 of them were wearing their masks and 1329 were double masked.

The only solution is to lock children away at home forever. They should have ankle monitors like prisoners - the germ infested little devils.

Because to do things normally and sensibly, would allow ordinary Bahamians to benefit and prosper. The purpose of our government is keep out own people down. They've been doing it for over 40 years. They do it because the Bahamian people WANT to be kept down and LOVE living like dogs. This is why the people did not see fit to give the COI even ONE seat in Parliament this last time. They are quite happy how things are, and the Parties aren't worried because they know they keep getting back in.

If people can't afford breadbasket items then they need to buy some condoms. If they can't afford to buy them, then they need to get some from Ministry of Health or Social Services.
