Aahh, yes......that tired 'ole racist card gets played whenever a 'true' Bahamian speaks out.

And pray tell, just why should I have to accept any responsibility for the invasion of my country by many thousands of Haitian nationals who are here in The Bahamas illegally, many of whom have fraudulently obtained (bought) documents from corrupt immigration and other government officials??!! These illegal Haitian aliens are a deadly cancer on our society because their overwhelming numbers are crushing our country's finances to the point where our natural heritage and way of life are on the verge of being annihilated. Only a select few wealthy Bahamians have wrongfully benefited from the exploitation of their labour, while the rest of us are left to foot the bill and suffer the very harmful consequences of their illegal presence in our country.

Many 'true' Bahamians do not find it at all amusing that the Marsh Harbour office of our Department of Immigration was for many years prior to Dorian located just across the street from Da Mudd shanty town.

Sheila Jackson Lee. Really? LMAO

The national flag of Haiti now flies over Marsh Harbour and all of Central Abaco. As the saying goes, times have sure changed.

There are plenty of residential properties in Haiti that can be rented for under $2,000 per month, especially in the Northern part of Haiti.

You just don't get it my friend. The Duckin' N Dodgin' Doc is only prepared to give lip service to the invasion of our country by many thousands of Haitian nationals who are here illegally. Make no mistake about it, PM Minnis is the biggest part of the problem.

Anyone who was alive but injured and pinned under debris had little chance of surviving for more than six or seven days. Precious rescue days were lost in the immediate aftermath of Dorian for reasons that we are now all too aware of.

We can only assume from your lack of concern about the invasion of our country that you hold a second passport. Most Bahamians are not so lucky.

This is one smart lady. And she was fortunate to have the financial means to build as she did.

QC Smith has been known to openly say on more than one occasion that he can run circles around Minnis and Bethel, and the entire staff of the AG's Office. I suspect he's probably right about his ability to do just that. The calibre of the typical staff member (lawyer) within the AG's Office is unimpressive to say the least and this enables the AG's Office to be very easily overwhelmed. QC Smith is well aware of this and revels at how easy it is for him to tie our government up in legal knots that they should but can't easily free themselves from.

Just look at what happened in the Frank Smith corruption case and what is now happening in the Shameless Shane Gibson corruption case. Bethel and his legal staff at the AG's Office have gone nowhere fast since May 2017. Small wonder QC Smith is laughing heartily as he works against the interests of The Bahamas and all 'true' Bahamians.

Even before Dorian, major hurricanes in recent times such as Katrina and Rita have highlighted the vulnerability of above ground oil storage tanks to hurricane-induced loading caused by rapid significant declines in barometric pressure, high storm surge and sustained F-4+ tornado force winds. Statoil and its subsidiary, Equinor, would have been well aware of this fact and also the increasing frequency of major hurricanes in recent times due to changing climate patterns and global warming.

There is therefore a reasonable expectation for Equinor to have ensured that its storage tanks in eastern Grand Bahama were suitably designed and built (or later structurally reinforced) with load tolerances well in excess of those that would likely be induced by a category 5+ hurricane. But aerial photos taken of the storage facility immediately after Dorian show that the lids or tops of at least four of the storage tanks had been completely removed (blown away) thereby exposing the toxic oil contents to the surrounding environment, including possibly the sea. A thorough independent investigation is necessary to determine whether Statoil/Equinor could and should have taken reasonable precautionary measures that would have prevented the tanks from being so severely breached.

It is perhaps worth noting that the U.S. government imposed a fine on BP of $4,300 per barrel of oil spilled in the Gulf of Mexico as a result of the Deep Water Horizon incident. The total BP fine exceeded $18 billion.
