Why is the government completely incapable of listening to anyone's advice regarding grid tie? There will be absolutely nothing "taking off" without the enabling of grid tie PV systems.

What a massive waste of time.

He tries though, it's just that those raging emotions and knee jerk ad hominem attacks always seem to get in the way!

Do you not realize that your inability to type a coherent response without resorting to childish attacks is a recurring theme that only adds to the noise on these forums?

A valid point, but still, regardless of the cost of taking care of 30 horses immediately, there is still the issue of future horses and future incidents and future neglect to factor in. A utilitarian perspective would suggest that even in the case that 30 horses may not get the immediate attention they require, by shutting down the whole operation, you would be preventing much more suffering over time.

I think placating the advocates of abolishing the practice altogether with this National Stable is short sighted at best and not even a viable solution at worst.

Ban the sale of a completely legal item because some people use it illegally? You'd have to ban cigarettes, pipes, and papers too. Why not ban lighters and matches while you're at it? You do realize there are plenty of ways to smoke/vaporize/ingest Marijuana/THC right? Even a child can figure out how to use a soda can or even a hollowed out apple to smoke out of. If they really wanted to solve the problem they would legalize the plant and end all the shady business, smuggling and crime associated with the import and distribution of a substance that factually causes waaaaayyyyyy less harm than the drug of choice in the Bahamas--- that would be Alcohol.

I'm sorry, but I fail to see how Marijuana has the potential for "destroying some young boy, some young girl" when nearly every other aspect of life in the Bahamas is much more efficient at holding people back and bringing them down.

In 5 years when Marijuana is legalized throughout the US and the failed war on drugs is finally ended, the Bahamas will be the last country in the area to take advantage of the mighty cannabis tourism/tax potential.
