Or, it's clear proof of locals deep seated hatred for Haitians. I don't think Haitians come here Hating Bahamians, but the way we treat them as people, all immigration / deportation aside, definitely will not make them like us... If Haitians hate Bahamians it is because we have bred our own hate into them
QUOTE: Our collective silence will condone his horrific and demonic pronouncements.
I think most citizens actually agree with Munroe... If the gov't / People aren't stepping up to hold politicians accountable for worse infringements than mere comments, then i doubt anyone will do much about this, especially if they agree publicly or privately...
Great Post Franklyn - my thoughts exactly!!! How tall are these politicians Ivory Towers?!?! They seem so oblivious at the times when their leadership is needed most .... the only successful leaders round here seem to be the gang leaders sadly ;(
...... I'm sure the British people are longing for a gov't more like your PLP because obviously those in the UK only pay lip service........ o_0........
You dun get too used to these fool MPs at home, but don't think that they are in any way a reflection of gov'ts around the world, nor anything like what a properly functioning gov't should be.
Oh and as for our wonderful progressive years of independence, at what point was the QUEEN of england not our head of state?! ..... Are our courts even full independent of the Privy Council yet??!?
Thats the whole thing Tal, 42 years with little to no progress, little to alot of regress. tooooo much empty promises, and now the gov't thinks it can take the biggest bite and tell us there will be no digestive issues???
Common sense would say they ein even gone be able to Chew the NHI cake, and when everything spit up, it's us who got get lick, not dem
He'd only use up we VAT money on his All inclusive. Gone say "bey... i guh miss dis life" and come back to Nassau sayin he gats the pie the sky and the answer for erryting! Vote PLP!!
And we as Bahamaians don't acknowledge that many Haitians desperately hope to eascape their effed up country?!?!?
Sad for them that people like us think they are less that potcake. I don't see people jumping up and down for harsher penalties for sexual offenders. I don't see people jumping up and down about the blatant government corruption.
Erryone is just want to point out speck in someone else eyes, while ignoring the Log in their own. Maybe it would be best for us to address our own short comings instead of pointing finger here there are every damn where
