Hopefully he isn't a teacher. He probably wasn't even present for the altercation and he still running hot.

"...you should bow out gracefully rather than forcing her, **even though you have a right to her body**.”

OMG!!! What is wrong with this so call holy man? Is he another self-appointed Bishop or did the Baptist organization really crown him a Bishop?

J.K. Rolling really needs to pen a Bible ("Modern Testament 2020"?) that's not so way out there.

Waiting for Birdie to defend this by saying something like 'the Ingraham administration went over budget in 19?? so what's the big deal!'.

So true. Birdie is a constant reminder of the deep rooted issues that the country has to overcome before we can hope to achieve 'good governance'.

Absolutely agree that the FNM messed this up BAD. They took forever to erect the few they did erect and now I'm seeing pictures of how close they are together. These are NOT sound proof products so they should have been erected much further apart to give these poor people space and privacy and a little yard space to call their own.
And there's no way these people should have been in there this long. As you say this was supposed to be temporary. Plans should have been in place to get homes rebuilt but we also saw that building material was just stockpiled, in the elements no less, and never distributed. Foreign help was turned away for what reason? Crazy bad decisions were made.
This tragedy was so poorly managed it's disturbing.
And the sad thing about it.... I don't think the powers that be have learned a damned thing from it. I bet you your right arm that after the next disaster many of the same people with be employed to do help.

I am what people with developed minds call a 'saver'. I am amongst the few that can foresee problems and disasters during my lifetime and can save for the rainy day. I go without so that I can pay for insurance and repair my home and cars without government help and cook outs. I go without so that I can better educate my children. I go without so that I don't need a loan in order to go to Miami to shop. I work in jobs I may not enjoy until I can find a job that pays better.
What I don't do is wait on someone else to fix my f'ing house.

Do tell.

If something smells crooked and is run like a drug cartel then you know that government is involved.

Taxi plates are like hookers here. You get one just to sell her to the highest bidder.
The taxi union is basically just a trafficker dealing in plates for a profit. nasty buggers!!

Absolutely. But the PLP trained these people this way. Promises are like gold for the ignorant.
Our people want food, water, shelter, job and transportation. AND they believe they're entitled to it because...???
