Economic refugees (i.e opportunists) are not treated the same as political refugees by most countries, even the ones that "respect human rights". This is why the U.S. turns their boats around. Regardless of why they're leaving and where they're trying to get to...they end up in Bahamas it cannot sustain the influx.
Do you understand sarcasm? I'll explain, I am pro human rights and that's why I'm disgusted by Fred Smith and others misuse of "human rights" title. It's no different than Dana Owens can call herself Queen Latifah...we know she's not royalty.
That was before my time. However, based on his actions today ..I beg t0 differ. We may not have road blocks today because it was inconvenient for Fred Smith or lucky coincidence. We give the loud mouths of today (and yesterday) far too much credit for nothing.
It's amazing what people decide to believe. If you read and understood he constitution, you would know immigration officers absolutely have the powers to arrest. Prejudice and bias, works both ways...you are a clear example of that!
Laughable. You really believe that? Talk about naïve...!
Fred Smith is no better than the politicians he condemns...only difference is, he clearly benefits from the misfortune of illegal immigrants. Munroe is all (frustrated) talk. Meanwhile, Fred Smith is ready for (adverse) action. Be careful who you root for...we might all suffer.
I agree, what's happening in the homes need to be investigated and if reasonable parental neglect is determined, absolutely. This is not typical teenage angst...this malicious anger that somebody created and/or ignored.
I agree; and the mass migration of poor, uneducated Haitians is not helping. Like many Bahamians, their children take their Bahamas sponsored education to the U.S. at the first opportunity. If migration is supposedly the answer because of the young, educated leaving and the poor, undereducated coming, then the Bahamas needs to be more diverse along nationality, racial, education and economic levels with regard to immigration. The Bahamas owes nothing to Haiti, there is no need for exclusivity.

Do you honestly believe a flogging illegal immigrants bill would ever be tabled in the house?

For once Perry and crew are doing the right thing. This nonsense comment deserves no traction from government...Munroe is not an elected official.
