KMT. I an being respectful, but like I said, I am not in favor of people coming on boats and setting up shanty towns. However, this is more than that, its rampant reckless, useless hatred. You people are not the Jews, or like the Jews. You are not a pure race, just a collection of Negro's like the rest of us. In fact, this collection in the Bahamas is less distinct than anywhere in the Caribbean. Ok, you have a right to your country, but being a Bahamian is not some sort of super identity.

The main reason my country declined is because we sat back and allowed what your authorities are doing, giving them free reign. It started with the persecution of Rastas. This till their power increased and they now can abuse the population. Abuse the Haitians and "illegals" who are born on your shores and one day that Governmental power will be unleashed against the so-called Bahamians. So the issue here is not insults, its about due process and Human Rights.

You obviously don't know anything about Jamaica as it full of "batty men", well not full, but they exist. As for these deportees, Is your cousin one of them?

LOL I am glad you know we aint starving. May God be praised.

Geez, Nazism in the western hemisphere. People referring to other humans as "it"

Don't be silly, two separate issues.

Maybe you can invite them to invest.

What you are talking is a violation of UN Bill of rights. Everyone SHOULD be accorded due process regardless of status, else you cease to be a country of law and order. You support lack of process, one day the state will turn against you. Please don't waste your time sending insults about me going to fix Jamaica. I have said what I have said.

Ok question? How can you run a successful tourist industry with quota's on restaurants? People want food options, and not by name, but by authenticity. When I travel, if I want Chinese, I expect to see Chinese in the back cooking, same with Italian, not the fake Olive Garden stuff. If one wants an international destination, then one has to have an international mindset.

Banker. Respect, I don't support no illegals(though your definition may be different than mine). But as a financier can you explain that every society where they got rid of outsiders en masse and in a hurry, anyone contributing to the GDP, the economy of those societies collapsed.

Anyway, I wish you guys a merry Christmas, I am taking a break. I can see 2cents loves to twist reality. I did nothing about Utopia. I simply said regardless of our struggles yet we strive. Your obsession with(illegals) which is !n accident of birth will give you high blood pressure. I have did nothing to denigrate your country, I have simply reiterated that a law that does not guarantee the child of a citizen citizenship is sheer folly, in a world where people travel and intermingle. I have said nothing in support of children of illegal immigrants getting citizenship, though that is standard in Western Nations.

As for your assertion that I said we are paradise, I will simply say that per capita income does not necessarily transfer into standard of living. I also don't care who comes and goes, What I know is history has not been kind to those who relish mistreatment of others.

Hey sheeprunner. Yes and no. I DO respect your sovereingty and the right to make laws. I am against illegal immigrant and shanty towns and all that mess. My only concern is it seems your constitution was written by men who did not want to allow the Bahamian woman to be with any other men, thus making the acquisition of citizenship a moving goal post. In a global world this was always going to be a problem. Forgive me, but this has made our dear friends very protective and maybe obsessed and keeping the place authentically Bahamian. That is good, every country does it, but not by legislation. The people who migrate to your lovely isles are working 2 jobs etc. And do not have time to listen to talk shows or read newspaper comments. Thusnsome advance while locals complain. Fact is even though pay may be low foreigners will take these low wage jobs and then work their way to somehow being permanent. The only way to prev3nt that is for your people to stop rejecting m3nial jobs if they are unemployed. This will dry up the market for outsiders.

On the flip side if there is need to import labour legitimately, these people must be made to feel welcome. Those who must be deported, so be it, but you must admit that you guys have many islands so it has to be hard for the Coast guard to cover so much ground. I must say I am appalled at some of the pictures of these Shanty towns. Surely if people migrate it must be for better, they need to fix their surroundings.
