Can you please clarify for me (a curious reader) whom exactly are the African slaves you speak of? Slavery itself was abolished in this part of the world some time now.

Be sure to include the same critique on TripAdvisor and Yelp as well. We need to hold each other accountable for the products and service we put out in this country. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Tal. I respectfully don't insist, and doubt my sensitivity would be impacted in any way. More concerned about National issues during this election year, as opposed to one lawyer's opinions expressed in a private meeting. Hope the media starts channeling attention to the real issues going on in this country...crime, credit rating, corruption, etc.

I read his comments in the article above. They represent his opinion (not necessarily fact). And while they represent his opinion, I am not surprised by his assessment. I am a black Bahamian with several white foreigners married into my family. I have first hand examples of what he is eluding to. Let's try to accept self-awareness for 2017...I don't agree with his generalisation of Bahamians, but certainly can see how he came to such conclusions...admit that.

BINGO! There is an apparent tunnel vision on what crime is...and THAT in itself is half the issue.

So am I to believe that crime is down because the murder rate has decreased compared to last year? That would be all nice and dandy if CRIME=Murder...what about all the other types of crime that is still rampant in this country? Come on...please...this tunnel vision approach is alarming (and vexing). Please...everyone...wake up. Crime is up....all crime.

Set the election date Mr. Prime Minister and THEN we shall go register!

Senator Moncur...please resign if you aren't able to 'catch up' with what's going on in a manner that would allow you to add value to the Senate. In good conscience, don't take on a post as honorable as Senator if you are not prepared to do your research. While I do not align with any party; I agree that we cannot continue to allow our government to turn any further into a "circus". Just tell LBT you want to help...but Senator may not be for you. My 5 cents.

Now can we please address how we're going to grow this economy and get out of the Junk status?!?!?!?

This seems to be more like a coalition...and in some ways does indicate an attempt to work for the common good (over party loyalties). I still haven't decided where my vote will be cast...but after what has transpired last week, I know that i'm ready now to update my voter registration card! Ha....seems like change is possible in this country.
