@ BahamaPundit....Very, very, well said sir! Successive governments blatantly perpetrated and even encouraged illegal Haitians to invade our country by rewarding them financially with taxpayers' money without taxpayers' approval to the detriment of Bahamians.
Now that we face this dilemma orchestrated by them, these same double-talking, jack-leg, politicians are calling Bahamians racist and xenophobic for being patriotic because they themselves are also of Haitian origin!
The solution is to firstly identify the "cowardly hiding" politicians that created this mess in the first place and hold them accountable. Secondly, get rid of ALL the politicians and form two new parties devoid of ANYONE with Haitian origins.
There are no Haitian politicians with Bahamian origins and there shouldn't be any Bahamian politicians with Haitian origins!
Finance Minister Peter Turnquest can play the dumb mouse card as long as he likes, but he still has to face the reality that beyond the remediation of those Islands infrastructure, the country has no choice but to seriously and immediately address the illegal immigrant problem nationwide before another "Dorian" like scenario plays out in Nassau, Eleuthera, Harbour Island, Andros, Exuma, and any Island where illegals have developed shanty-towns.
Rescue, housing, recovery, and restoration phases would not have been such a massive undertaking for the government had the country not had shanty-towns and more illegals to deal with than legal residents.
An equitable portion of any loan should be earmarked for illegal immigrant apprehension, housing, medical and repatriation. Turnquest needs to clarify how these loans help to eliminate the illegals component.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. The Haitian community continues laughing at these saber-rattling clowns.
The Dominican Republic also tried dealing with illegal Haitians "humanely" for decades without an ounce of success! Haitians simply **will not** willingly abide by a countries immigration or any other laws. It is no secret that Haiti is mainly devoid of law and order, it is their culture, so why would we or any country expect Haitians to suddenly care about its' laws?
Carl Bethel and the government failed lip service act is way, way, too passe`! We've heard this "go home" mantra so often that we now join the Haitians in laughing at these jokers!
One thing for certain. We the people **WILL** vote these do-nothings out just as we voted out all the rest, and the plp is not the answer. We need two new parties.
Fred Mitchell finally said something that makes sense. However, he still doesn't have the gravitas to come to grips with the fact that illegal Haitian shantytowns existing in Nassau, Eleuthera, Harbour Island, Exuma, Andros, and anywhere else in the country should be immediately addressed before the next hurricane or GOD forbid other disasters stricks, leaving taxpayers with the overwhelming burden of responsibility of caring for illegals!
The government has to be proactive in this regard posthaste. There is no time for sitting around talking the usual dead-end political stupidity.
**OMG** more blah, blah, blah, blah. The Bahamas have always been a piracy based jurisdiction and it will remain so until Jesus himself comes as ruler!
DPM Turnquest can rattle sabers, talk sugar and spice until all the illegal Haitians in the Bahamas start paying taxes and leave voluntarily, but nothing is going to change the deeply ingrained "culture" of under the table wheeling and dealing here.
Turnquest can stop this asinine righteous act which only fools himself, and face the simple fact that both FNM and PLP finding the implementation of a Freedom Of Information Act a major impediment only confirms that corruption and graft are abundantly and equally rife in both parties!
The PLP and FNM politicians responsible for allowing these violent people into our country will retreat to their police guarded homes and gated communities leaving we the people to fend for ourselves.
Immigration Minister Elsworth Johnson is in way over his head. Politicians continue thinking Bahamians are stupid. This FNM crew developed short memory syndrome rather quickly. In 2022 we the people will show these bullshyters why Hubert Ingraham and Perry Christie and virtually all their MP's were voted into oblivion.
We the people are sick and tired of supporting illegal Haitians while we watch our people stand in soup kitchen lines begging for handouts!
We the people DEMAND the FNM get off their collective backsides and deal with the illegal Haitian migrant invasion throughout the country as a matter of priority before another storm affects Nassau, Eleuthera, Andros and Exuma, and the government take our tax dollars plus borrow countless millions in loans to care for illegal Haitians.
The Bahamas CANNOT be the answer to Haiti's problems!
"Give up their air conditioners"?? You are totally out to lunch! Thousands of unemployed Bahamians throughout the country being kept below the poverty line by illegal Haitian migrants would be delighted for the opportunity to get the hell out of Nassau for a while AND earn a steady wage to support their families!
The government needs to finally begin protecting the Bahamas for Bahamians. We do not need any Haitian laborers for the cleanup and restoration of Abaco or Freeport!
It is people like you that perpetrate this illegal Haitian problem under the false pretense that Haitians are doing work that Bahamians refuse to do. Nothing could be further from the truth. Any Bahamian is willing to do a fair days work for a fair days wage.
People like you want a days work for less than its value AND servitude! Bahamians do not play the "big grin" "yes boss" bullshyt, and that is why the likes of you prefer Haitians!
