Tired of hearing about the 'poor Haitians' and the miserable situation in Haiti. "Tings tuff" in the Bahamas for Bahamians too. Where are the preachers talking about that? Just because the situation in Haiti is terrible doesn't mean they have the right to just sneak into the Bahamas and set up house-- and have the nerve to complain when government ministries finally begin to the do their job! They don't even see what they are doing is wrong.

Sad. Must have felt so alone...

Does he realize the Haitian parents were the ones who ran off and abandoned their own children? Talk about that memory those parents created for their own children! The Bahamian government (immigration, social services) were the ones looking out for the children's safety.

If she was male, her weight would not even be mentioned.

Should have used all the millions 'they say' they've invested on BAMSI in Andros, to purchase those much needed generators. Lousy again!

Adrian, you're not alone with these feelings. For the first time ever we're thinking of applying for British passports like my husband's; never even considered it before.

Would have been nice to read something about her. Her parents, where she went to school, something the reader could identify her by. This article gives the reader nothing.

As long as you are born on US soil you are an American. Been born on Bahamian soil does not make you a Bahamian, especially if your parents are both foreigners and illegal.

Don't do it! They are only so many streets on this island and closing off a major one like this is stupid. Bahamians don't shop on Bay Street because the stores aren't selling what we want or need, and there is no place to park . Other shopping areas offer parking and a choice of stores. You might still not find what you want but how many Bahamians need souvenirs, which is mainly what Bay Street has. Perfume, watches, jewellery, clothing and shoes can be found outside of the downtown area, so why go there?

There are two shacks, owned by the same family I believe, that need to moved from Rawson Square and near the traffic-light near Government House. Talk about a security risk! Only slackness could allow them to be near such high-security areas! We were in Rawson Square when Prince Harry visited a few years back. The shack there was closed and everyone was nervously commenting about the fear of someone jumping out of it and shooting up the area. The owner, always wearing black, had to get permission from a khaki-wearing police officer to go in and get more bottles of water to sell.
