I wonder where we can find a good lawyer to get all these guys freed? For a price, any lawyer is willing to represent a drug dealer / gun runner, yes? So, a good lawyer, by definition, will get their client out of harm's way, yes? When a good lawyer is suddenly a political "leader" do they change their stripes? Just asking.
All those at the top of this smelly heap knew the character of those they worked with and for. The Prime Minister should also resign. There is far too much corruption under his nose, suggesting he was either aware of it, or part of it.
And, as we turn away from true national security, with disappearances of visitors, murders and rapes increasing, a deteriorating infrastructure and the blight of Bay Street, what would one expect of "tourist numbers"? When anyone in the world can pick up a newspaper and read the fact that there is almost no institution in this country one can count on, respect or trust, what would we expect our potential tourists to do, but stay away.
Why would oil import monetary outflows decrease by over 100 million? Despite the numbers, of which can be manipulated by any seasoned accountant, do not the Bahamian people know that the simple cost to survive in this country is increasing? When an honest broker factors in outright theft and corruption at every level of government from the Prime Minister's office on down, the rampant Pay to Play business requirements, the horrible lack of a national work ethic, these inflated and wasteful no-bid contracts for Family Island clinics, an uneducated populace, a constant and unarguable brain drain, what hope is there for an honest hardworking Bahamian? The tide is against The People. Perhaps we should bring back hanging. But instead of us hanging someone who killed one person, we should hang those who violated the trust and helped kill an entire country. Any nominations?
“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated” is a quote by Mahatma Gandhi. The quote suggests that how a society treats animals reflects its values of compassion and empathy. It may also imply that cruelty to animals indicates a lack of concern for the well-being of others."
Ms. Duncombe is right. Jomo Campbell? Where have I heard that name before? At some point, hopefully before the rising tides sweep The Bahamas into the sea, we must intellectually and morally move into this century. At present, we are making little progress.
Speaker Deveaux is a disgrace to this nation. But, I can see why Davis wants her around. Still wondering who this public official is. Something tells me it will get worse, to the point of embarrassing. Jokey Leaders keep on keeping on. Davis should resign before he is indicted. But, maybe that's the point.

Many here will continue to sell anything.
As if, that is not the problem.

You seem quite delusional and under-educated.
Read some history. It will ultimately help your cause.

Blaming the victim is what we do best in this country.
It absolves us all of any responsibility for the utter degeneration of our social values.
