I assumed this gentleman had no other words in his vocabulary to degrade us; unfortunately the cap sure is hell do not fit. No, I think what he meant to say was; that he's sorry his people have 'exploited' our resources and their rights as illegals. Sorry that his people have become a 'BURDEN' to our society by having many children to a household with no regards to their illegal immigration status. Also, he cannot express his gratitude of how we've 'endured' this for so long while our country is being seized by HIS countrymen. NO! I think this is what he intended to say when he decided to speak out on this immigration matter. Haitians need to humble themselves, and the ambassador and Freddy needs to take a seat! As it's well known, Haitians that have prospered in other countries speak well of their home and how beautiful it is. WELL.. my question is, what are you doing for YOUR country other than fighting to give them rights in other people's country????? There is a big problem here! Bahamians ain't rolling over and playing dead anymore... and they have every right under the heavens to fight for what is theirs, not haiti's!
I'll wear the Xenophobe label proudly! We've been Haiti's doormat for too long! To now 'shit all over us' after we've let these violations of immigration gone on for so long, is indeed a slap in the face. If the head (Haiti's Ambassador) is making such uninformed statements, and passing the buck like this, then I see why we as Bahamians cannot expect any better from the rest. :(
What's killing me is, will these particular policemen have a system in place as to be identifiable with these supposed off duty firearms. Because lets face it.. if a shop I'm in is being robbed and a bystander pulls out a guy stating that they are police, this can possibly make situations worse. People being caught up in crossfires etc. I can see this being a complete disaster.
Wow.. Birdie you're not looking at the bigger picture. Regardless of his integrity; being fired or not, what he's saying here is living truth for residents of the island.
I wonder why? Is this a random robbery? Why in the head? So many questions and no answers.. I would think the police would be all over this since it's one of their own. : (
I agree! Don't want to hear anyone crying about their good son or daughter. Everyone is well aware of crime and the steps necessary to eradicate this cancer to our society. If you're out there acting the fool I can not sympathize. It's a war-zone that has been created because of the lackadaisical attitudes we take in bringing up our children and our lack of positive contribution to our society and country.
