(CNN) — You can now be fined up to $250,000 if you call someone an ‘illegal alien’ in New York City New York City has banned the term “illegal alien” when used “with intent to demean, humiliate or harass a person,” the city said.
The city’s new guidelines, announced last week, also ban discrimination against someone based on their English proficiency and threats to call immigration authorities on someone “based on a discriminatory motive.” These violations can result in fines up to $250,000. https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/cchr/downlo…
where is the tolerance, humanity, compassion, kindness, love, basic awareness of our fellow man? Read, learn, think... Hate begets hate, we reap what we sow.... I can't imagine what all this hate speech will do to a young mind that has been through hell...
Very sad to hear this, the Keys without locks, got me in tears. I think i would do the same. We need sensible directives, from a sensible government, with a sensible Restoration & Reconstruction PLAN going forward. The gov should do everything it can to help small businesses in all affected areas. Build smart and use renewables.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Mr. Smith, we need you to keep speaking-out on human rights and environmental issues, for all our sakes, and before we all lose our rights as citizens of the Bahamas and the world.
Dr Sands please get one of the Ministry Of Health's dietitians to make up a healthy diet plan for the Bahamas and post it everywhere for all to see. With the favorite bahamian foods and budget friendly, easy to prepare meals that will appeal to an average Family. Base on Weight Watchers or something. For example- Breakfast selections- Low fat Souse, made the day before and fat skimmed off the top. Tuna / sardines and stone ground high fiber grits with no fats etc. Lunch- Lots of quick packed lunch ideas. Dinner- Grilled meats, Healthy peas and rice made with high fiber rice. steamed veg. Snacks - fruit, nuts, veggie sticks. Drink 8 glasses of water & no sodas.
We have a generator but need to replace fridge, pool pump, water pump, microwave and TV due to brownouts and spikes. The neighbours are using our genny's power cords so they can work from home. We can endure ok, but there are some that have died and the morgus can't keep the bodies cold.
It is unforgivable that this is happening in 2019, all because of past and present governments corruption, is killing us all and destroying our way of life. We need to jail those that caused this sell their house, freeze their assets, get the money back.
