I am far more afraid of this learned victim mentality and the faux sense of entitlement of this doltish thinking concerning reparations than I am of the contrived effects of a system (slavery) that has been a part of human history since its inception. Too many have already freed themselves from the mental chains of the colonial past for this nonsense to be taken seriously. I would rather we get rid of governor generals!
Church of England? Who going to pay reparations for the abuse we have suffered under black leadership in this country since majority rule? We suffering under a negro right now!!
There is no need to be alarmed tour operators, tourists are government approved covid carriers, so its okay. Its Bahamians you don't want to get covid from!
The rastas two primary contributions to this country have been in creating a misguided sense of community for many young people and cornering the peanut market!
This nation reminds me of children who like to follow fashion without understanding consequences. Before we can even talk about building this country we have to start building its people and we have to look at positive influences to do that. Having seen the negative effects of marijuana on the development and potential of many I can only wonder how can more help those who need help most. Of course a few with capital will find another avenue to exploit the many for personal benefit! I have personally known too many people, some from prominent families, who had mental issues after marijuana use.
I think we should move on and focus on education, re-learning the value of hard work, building strong families and communities first. Priorities are important!
@ milesair... you sound like one of those promoters of tolerance that are quite intolerant themselves!! A lover of the truth you believe, even if not based on objective facts. An open minded person who believes in free speech as long as others agree with you, but to each his own!

One must ask, are beaches closed to tourists too or are Bahamians really second class citizens in their own country?
