you are absolutely right!!! Bahamians caught with drugs in the US punishment is even harsher than that of American Citizens, not to mention the automatic collateral damages! Like I said before in another post, The South (U.S.A) may not legalize MJ for a long time! Legalizing MJ in The Bahamas will create more tourist than tourism (as we now know it) itself!! Jacksonville, Ft. Myers, Leesburg, these are Floridians looking to find somewhere with more lax MJ laws than living in the good 'ole' south! Look at their responses "just wanted to have some fun" 80 and 60 year olds! these are not "those black problem young men" If we (Bahamas) do not start thinking progressively on this issue and continue to 'bank' on tourism as we know it, spending millions on advertising and marketing sometimes barely breaking even! Just sit back and watch the increase of ships going to Jamaica that was once coming to The Bahamas. And guess what?? We will still have more of "those black problem young men" plus LESS tourism.
i am so proud of this comment i have to cut and paste!
Medical Marijuana no longer needs to be smoked. Methods have been developed to extract oils and other beneficial ingredients from the marijuana plant and convert them into medicine, so there is no longer a need for a 'patient' to be walking around with a big joint down his throat.
this is the 21st century folks! reefer madness be damned!!
I hope you feel the same about that cancerous cigarette smoke, oh, how's that power plant smoke and fossil fuel/carbon monoxide working out for ya? However, I would say MJ should not be smoked openly in public places any more than that 'Ciggy'.
Yea, I know what you mean, I was thinking the same about Kalik vs 151 proof. Prohibition will not work! you cannot regulate what someone can put in their own bodies! especially when it's easier for them can grow 'hydro' vs 'regular' weed by themselves!
Listen, I live in the US, and work on the 14 floor of a sky scraper building, if I see a sustainable earning potential of growing MJ in my Bahamaland??? I'll pack the wife and kids and move back to the Bahamas in a heartbeat, yes, to work in those fields! It's more self rewarding than selling money for an interest rate.
With such stereotypical comment, you would think there are no older men or females suffering from "drug induced psychosis". Reminds me of here in the USA, amazing how even in a country where the majority of the population is of African decent, it's so convenient to place the blame on those young black men. How about Alcohol induced psychosis? How about Prescription pills induced psychosis, How about Unhealthy eating/GMO/Fast food induced psychosis? With such 'do nothing' about it mentality and just 'pray' about it is why crime is so high in our Bahamaland. Those young men 'suffering' from drug induced psychosis from using MJ (if that's what they are using and not molly or stichie) are much better than that Rat Bat in your cabinet. Do your research.
What else would anyone expect from a man with a 'Adolf Hilter' mustache??? Acklins has been forsaken from the days when Hon. Wilbert Moss was M.P, whose family hailed from neighboring Crooked Island, It's a shame the this current M.P family is from Acklins (his mother & his wife's mother and father) and instead he 'rob' others to benefit Acklins? Never! the total opposite! If anyone said being a Potcake is easy? They're a liar!
Vote to get these dinosaurs (FNM & PLP) out of office!!! Respectfully, we thank them (FNM & PLP) for their contributions to the Bahamas, good and bad, but it's time for them to enjoy their twilight years on an outer Island. This is a matter of National Security! Borrowing Millions to be paid back by taxpayers, VAT, high unemployment, lack of job stability, Cronyism, Creationism and indoctrination instead of education and STEM programs, Crime at all time high and the Tourism goose nervously hanging on for dear life?? We need new leadership across the board! Bahamians need to start saying NO to their 'Potcake Politics'! AKA They (politicians) only know you when they need you?? like every 5 years! We've heard about "Arab Spring'? Now it our time, carib spring!!
