Fine Chucky, but then let the government have the temerity and say that incompetence is the reason why these officers are being disrespected. Let's not mask it in some supercilious, surreptitious political nonsense. Though, you and I both know well that these moves are all about politics and have not one iota to do with "bungled investigations, abuse of power", etc.

This is not true...you are, intentionally I am sure, perpetuating a falsehood. Stop it!

So Moncurcool, one of the facts if very simple. Brave has asserted that the PM does not have to "change the law" to reduce the sentences of inmates jailed due to marijuana. That is either a fact or it is not. Period. If it is true, then Brave is right, the PM should just reduce the sentences, where applicable. If it is not true, then Brave should be quiet and allow the PM to do what he has to do. This one is easy to follow, is it not?

Mudda, I think in this case, the Graduate is calling for the dismissal of the Board, no? Now excuse me as I go to the shower to wash the stench off of me for having to defend the Graduate. YUCK!

I cant believe that this is your takeaway from this article. Amazing.

I guess I will be in the minority here. Mr. Myers said that the pool of qualified Bahamians are limited and that he is "forced to engage expatriates." Then, he decries the brain drain, which is tantamount to admitting that there are qualified Bahamians but they choose to stay abroad. The question, then is why do they choose to stay away? Part of the reason is that Mr. Myers, and people of his ilk -i.e. decision makers- choose not to pay Bahamians, but rather have very little difficulty paying expats. Pay the qualified Bahamian what you pay the expat and, though this is an anecdote, Bahamians would come back and work. I know I would. Myers is a hypocrite on this issue.

Your ungracious example (bathroom) notwithstanding, I have no issues with your dislike of Brave or Fred. Have no issues with your apparent affection for Godfrey. But, please, let's not try to rewrite history here. Godfrey, in his hey day, was the worst of the worst UBP minister/politician. His bipartisanship and loyalty toward a system that disenfranchised the majority of Bahamians - via denial of education, his overt and willing support of a system that treated the majority as third class citizens and his abject discontent for the majority (all documented, google before you respond to me) is not "the opposition saying stuff to hurt {me}". These are just hard facts. In my view, he, as is the case with many current and past recipients, do not deserve this honour. It is unfortunately another example of a pathetic case of the black man "rewarding" his tormentor because, in this instance, he gave us a sailboat or two. Disappointing, but not surprising.

The silliness posted on this comment board continues.

Finally the regulator has caught up. This is a good development, let us see if this portends good things in this area.

Absolute nonsense.
