It is tragic that she was attacked, it should not of happened but how did the attack affect the U.S. visa service?
If the officer/diplomat had a case of influenza or some minor ailments and was not able to attend work would visa services have been disrupted?
Was the delay because the US visa service could not function without this individual? was there not anyone else to assist with the million dollar visa business which an individual pay fees with the chance of having your application denied?
We should not need a visa, we should be able to travel without all the red tape because 98% of Bahamian return back home or some never leave the island.
If they want to continue to help the Bahamas with policing and coast guard, OPBAT, etc.etc. make us a state or territory like the Virgin Islands, so their interest is kept and their investment is protected.
American criminals who have been convicted of crimes in the U.S. can travel to the Bahamas with no visa come here start a bar fight on Christmas drive down the center of the road on a moped and spend a night at central and come back next year for boxing day.
If we have such a close relationship and share so much there should be nothing hindering Bahamians from enjoying the same liberty and freedom Americans enjoy when they travel for years.
PS. Bahamian cant work or go to school commit minor traffic infractions without having an issues, they have boaters coming from Florida drinking and boating/driving, illegal fishing and get away with it, if a Bahamian does that in america they may not be ale to receive a visa for travel again.
Until then we are a still a part of The British Monarchy, and enjoy our commonwealth status, if my neighbor has a cow why go to the farm to get milk?
Why should an Industrial conflict affect essential services of the General Public? Please resolve your own issues, without disrupting the Public service, they work hard to pay their bills which are already astronomically high.
Here is a suggestion, pay cuts, retirement maybe even making some position redundant for the already highly paid executives and administrators who cant make firm decisions, and give the union workers the correct scheduling, adequate and comfortable working conditions and tools and add more quality assurance to the service which you provide.
No Lights out War, do your jobs and keep it to yourselves, please.
