People just choose to be outraged over anything nowadays, the real problem is that too many people give the blue haired folk their attention. Ignore the attention seeking behaviour and it will go away.

All I'm saying is that it is a bit melodramatic to claim that "Abaco will be dead for years to come" if the deal doesn't go through. TC is really not that important in the grand scheme of things, and has been a dump for a couple decades now anyways. I am really interested to observe the dynamic between Kovats and the property owners if this deal does go through, TC is not a "resort" in the most traditional sense of the word.

Please, I'm an Abaconian, if Baker's employs Mexicans, TC employed just as many, if not more, Haitians. One is no better than the other when it comes to using foreign labour.

PLP is out for revenge over Shane Gibson and Frank Smith. Ingraham advised Minnis to not bother with political prosecutions, but he chose not to listen. The tables have turned now, and the shoe is on the other foot.

I'm sorry, I have to disagree that "Abaco will be dead for years to come". Will N. Abaco be a bit slow if TC Resort goes into the night, yes, but Baker's is far more important to Abaco and Hope Town alone attracts far more tourists than Treasure ever will. Abaco will survive quite fine if TC folds, it is more of a second home owner community than tourist attraction anyways.

When are these people ever going to understand that bahamians are not on your run.

Ok, fine, lets wave the magical wand and make every firearm disappear from this country. Boom! Gang members will just use shivs, cutlasses, and rocks instead (research the knife attacks in England if you think otherwise). The statements made by White really highlight the deficiencies in our leadership's thinking; a firearm is a tool that can be used for good or bad, just like a knife, car, bottle, etc., it has to be used by someone. Until we fix the issues causing these people to act like baboons in the streets, we are going to continue having this problem. Even more scary is the fact White thinks destroying our civil liberties is somehow a solution to this problem. Really highlights the thought process of so many of our leaders.

Wyoming has the highest rate of firearms ownership in the US, and yet one of the lowest crime rates. I wonder why? Almost like the person behind the gun is a lot more important than the firearm itself.

Remember guys, we need more taxes or else the country is not going to survive.

They probably don't work....as is the case with most business establishments. Nothing but a visual deterrent in most cases.

Self service pumps are the norm for most parts of the US and Canada. It won't address the root issue though, so the problem is still going to exist.

Please go finish shittying up your own country before trying to shitty ours up further. That 8.5% inflation rate is doing a great job at driving your citizens into poverty, so I would recommend you worry about stagflation and the invasion of your country instead of our invasion.
