The military personnel that will be deployed to Haiti will be entering what is close to being a war zone.. Almost every Bahamian family has so far escaped paying the price for having a family member suffer PTSD from serving in the military in a war zone as so few Bahamians served in WW1 or ww2, and yes, i am aware of the Dupuch, Thompson, Johnson, et al. . Bahamian families may in the future pay the price for the horrible things that these soldiers may do or experience,
Hi Lostmanstanding; you have posted the following: " having a "pride" club was one of the requirements for CoB to transition to UB in the first place. The truth is that this'''" The truth is that what you have written is not true but it epitomizes very well the sort of unfounded prejudice that abounds amongst many who profess to follow the great teachings of The Lord.
These religious leaders seem to be so obsessed with what happensin the privacy of other peoples bedrooms, have they not noticed that more than 70 peiole have been brutally murdered so far this year? It seems that being a gay person is worse and more concerning than being a murderer.
There is no good reason why Bay Street should have even a single parking spot. reserved only for taxi drivers. Properly run cities will have designated taxi parking spots outside airports and sometimes train stations, they do not have dedicated taxi parking spots on their main shopping thoroughfare. A pick drop off place is acceptable but to tie up valuable real estate space in order to allow taxi drivers to try and solicit business from passing tourists is risible.
Just so; ideally The House of Assembly should have 20 women members and 4 white members to more accurately represent the Bahamian population. This, however, is a the flaw in the "First Across The Post" democratic election process that we currenty espouse,
Where does Mr. Plummer think that rights come from? They are a human construct codified by governments. They change and evolve over time. The right to vote is a typical example of this; From men over the age of 21 years owning substantial land holdings through to the current Western democratic mean of any citizen over the age of 18 and of either gender.
If, as the COP Claims, 99% of police people are honest, and if the RBPF has 3,000, Police persons, then this country has, at , best, 90 dishonest police people on the force. And that is a "Best Case" Scenario; if you believe the Commissioner of the RBPF.
