... and thank god for that.

There has been a palpable change in attitudes to gay rights in the Bahamas, even just in the last year, and it's a great great thing for the country. Every step closer to equal rights for all is a step in the right direction.

I'm gonna sign out of this discussion now, busy days ahead. Thank you for the debate though. I guess now we wait and see what goes down.

Eh, well no we're not 'doing the grammar correction thing'. Repeatedly misspelling Mitchell is neither a grammatical error nor a typo. Thanks though, I've noted my typo.
That was merely a side note to my response to you, it was literally one line, so I'm unclear as to how you've defined that as 'distracting'. Though I admit you were very easily distracted as you focused entirely on my side note and nothing else I said.

I repeat... I find it quite amusing that you're entire evaluation of me as a hypocrite is based around my activity on the tribune news website. Even you surely can see how absurd that is.
First of all, I think Mitchellls work in the past and in more recent years for human rights has been outstanding and worth note. Especially his stance on LGBT rights.
I don't judge an entire person based on one decision or action that would be ridiculous.
Lastly, please for the love of God, learn to spell Mitchell... It's RIGHT there...

Ah ok. The misuse of the hyphen suggested otherwise.

Let me reiterate my point... just for you.

You have put your case across and have made the statement that you believe Smith has some (unspecified) problem with Mitchell. All this is, is a theory based on your own assumptions and not on fact, but you are of course entitled to your opinion.

With regards to never seeing any comments from me before... well I have commented on many things in the past. However, you are correct. I don't spend a lot of time on the Tribune comments sections, very little time at all. However occasionally I will glance down when reading and happen to have the time to comment, so I do. I'm sure there are many hundreds of things that I miss out on because I just don't have the time to go through every story, every day in every news medium. That does not in any way make my opinion any less worthy of an audience or any less deserving of respect than yours. Nor does it mean that I feel a story I may have missed or not had time to comment on, is any less important than one I may have read or commented on.
It's quite amusing that your entire evaluation of me as a hypocrite is based solely around my activity on the Tribune news website though.

Talking bout semantics... I'm sorry let me rephrase because you once again twisted what I was saying. 'You may think that AND you have every right to say it. It does not prove it'

Sorry but did you not just call me 'Space-Shite'? I'm fairly sure that stands as playground name calling by anyones standards

I never 'pretended' he was always up and active in this topic, I commented that the lack of evidence of him being active in this topic before does not stand as evidence of a bias against Mitchell or this government... that also does not prove that he is being 'selective'. You may think that... you have every right to say it. It does not prove it.
