Successive government's behavior of painstakingly protecting irregular migrants to any lengths instead of supporting the rights of Bahamians points to "a criminal plot" underway "to change the demographic makeup of the Bahamas".

This 360-degree jackass is trying to baffle us with bullshyt using smoke and mirrors to dodge the solution to resolve the issue.

All these genius clowns need to do is vigorously prosecute anyone found hiring illegals with a $10,000.00 fine and post a bounty of $3,000.00 for anyone reporting individuals employing illegals that leads to a conviction.

Employers wouldn't risk hiring illegals and the illegals wouldn't have any reason to come here anymore.

The whole scheme would not only be self-funding but also profitable.

So either get it done or please sit down and STFU Keith Bell.

The law is only for poor black Bahamians. Haitians, politicians, and their leeches are exempt from the law.

The PLP and FNM corrupt politicians and their elite leeches have been relentlessly robbing the people's Treasury in broad daylight without fear of prosecution and protecting each other for 50+ years!

This is the same class of corrupt individuals and grafts that made Haiti a failed state today.

Don't blame Dr. Minnis, he was under strict orders by Michale Scott, Holoweskos, and the rest of the white knights that REALLY ran the country.

@ deddie.....To make such a stupid statement you have to be one of them. Anyone with half a brain knows the lack of jobs in our country is mainly due to low-skilled migrants taking jobs that undereducated Bahamians should have!

Haitians, Asians, Latinos, and others are here literally by the tens of thousands occupying jobs that **should be protected for undereducated Bahamians**.

Why do we allow Haitians, Asians, Latinos, and others to occupy domestic jobs while Bahamians starve?

No Haitians, Asians, Latinos, and others should be employed in any positions that a Bahamian can fill.

Politicians have lost their way a long time ago and obviously don't give a dam about the welfare of Bahamians!

This must and will change in the very short term.

Mr. Farquharson and the Department of Labour could facilitate 20,000+ jobs if they had the balls to address the domestic employment sector and train Bahamians for these easy-to-learn jobs.

How anyone could expect to move to the 6th most expensive country in the world and find cheap domestic or any cheap labour at all is one of the most unreasonable things our stupid politicians continue to allow.

Filipinos utilize a $250.00 government-sponsored loan program to take a short course in domestic work that qualifies them to apply for domestic jobs all over the world.

Mr. Farquharson and the Department of Labour need to focus on training Bahamians to fill the thousands of domestic jobs now occupied by Asians and Latinos.

Lowest hanging fruit my ass. Your Haitians are the single biggest parasites in the Bahamas and Turks Islands!

The Grand Bahama Port Authority and the I-group in Mayaguana did not enter the country illegally, plunder every public resource, or steal the chances of the average Bahamian to make a living.

You Haitians have broken every law in the Bahamas with impunity thanks to political corruption, destroyed the way of life for untold thousands of Bahamians, and now want to play the victim.

Time longer than rope. You Haitians have long since run out of rope with Bahamians and now you are out of time!

Could it be these supposed "intelligent" Bahamians that always shouting support for Haitians but never support our own people are **"not our people"?**

Equality Bahamas director Alicia Wallace claims that the Haitian migrant community is “systematically targeted, scapegoated and blamed” for a range of issues that result from white supremacy, capitalism, and colonialism is 100% pure steaming horse nanny.

The Haitian migrant community makes themselves targets because they are the single largest group of migrants contributing to Bahamians suffering unemployment, inadequate healthcare, poor education, and shortages of social services. Their way of living is culturally unacceptable, (very nasty), and other social ills!

Whereas Ms. Wallace is correct that everyone needs a place to live and has the right to legal protection, everyone is also accountable to be subjected to the letter of the law and processes, all illegal migrants from anywhere automatically compromise themselves by entering the country illegally in the first instance. Everything these people do in the country is in breach of the letter of the law because they have no right to be here, and they should be treated likewise.

It is beyond ludicrous to suggest illegal migrants should be treated equally to individuals that went through the proper processes to enter a country. If this were so, why would anyone bother to do things properly?

Under the enormous cost and strain of supporting illegals, The Bahamas is well on the way to buckling and becoming another failed state as is Haiti, and for the exact same reasons. Systemic corruption, mass unemployment, lack of health care, inadequate education, poor infrastructure, shortage of social services, out-of-control serious crime, etc.

Illegals, firstly Haitians because of their huge numbers are the biggest of offenders, are making life unbearable for Bahamians. Low-skilled jobs that should be reserved for undereducated Bahamians have been occupied by Haitians, Asians, Latinos, and others leaving crime as the sole solution for survival.

I stand with Bahamians! The Bahamas needs to purge itself of **ALL** illegals.
