#acting Director of Public Prosecutions Cordell Fraizer has officially submitted her recommendations to Police Commissioner Clayton Fernander concerning an MP accused of raping and abusing his ex-girlfriend. His response is for everyone to standby! In four months this investigation has progressed from crossing the tees and dotting the I’s to standby, some people obviously only open their mouths to change feet 🦶!
Mr. Woods you bettas don’t bite the hand that feeds you lest you and your friends don’t end up back where yinna was 65 years ago fishnin and farming. Your kind don’t negotiate only dictate!
Mrs. McCoy-Minnis, With all due respect, if your grown son doen't understand the definition of consent,ie yes or no, he must have the IQ of a beetle. His girlfriend could more easily bring a charge of rape against him than a wife could under our current antiquated laws.
Why is an off duty law enforcement officer even carrying a firearm while frequenting a bar? People who have been drinking carrying firearms is a very dangerous and volatile situation.
That pile of dirt under that carpet getting bigger and bigger, they going to need a bigger carpet and a better broom soon. The matter concerning the self proclaimed Prime Minister of Abaco still unresolved after four months a typical case in point. Rules for thee but not for me, some animals are more equal than others.
With regard to Kirk Cornish being the self proclaimed Prime Minister of Abaco, well, you can' make this s#$t up, maybe explains why Commish dem still dotting da I's and crossing daT's dem.
Let’s not deceive ourselves, Columbus was nothing more than a servant of the Spanish crown carrying out his sponsors bidding however misguided. Nothing has changed, our governments minions continue to carry out the stupidities wished upon the current natives with the same callous disregard. What makes them heroes, the fact that they’re black?
The logical place to put Columbus statue after restoration would be in its original place as a tribute to the black Bahamian who gifted it to the Governor in the first place. You can't change history with a sledge hammer, but you can certainly prosecute the lunatic who tried to.
@Islandwarrior, I have to admire your patriotism and optimism, yours is definitely a glass half full philosophy.
I think that much of my disillusionment and pessimism stems from my being a Bahamian of the fifties and sixties era who has lived and experienced what Bahamian life and culture was back then even having lived and schooled for a time on an out island.
The fact that I have had that Village experience makes it more difficult to accept what we as a people have allowed ourselves to become today, and to continually question where, when and why we lost our moral compass so rapidly. Since the mid-sixties we have engaged in a steady race to the bottom, mediocrity at best has become the norm.
I sincerely hope that some more enlightened individuals will emerge as leaders and are willing to make some of the tough love decisions that are necessary to put us back on the right road as those past and the current crop have offered nothing but "Good Intentions" which as we all know the Road to Hell is paved with.
" Let us celebrate our distinctive identity rather than try to conform to the standards of others who envy our exceptional culture."
What is this distinctive identity and exceptional culture you mention? Do you mean the Thug and Gun Culture and identity imported from our northern neighbors and joyfully embraced by our misguided and impressionable youths dem where we refer to each other as niggas and hoes? This extends even to their so-called music with every other word an expletive.
The ship with the remnants of true Bahamian music and culture sailed long ago leaving behind the pot mess of other peoples "culture" which we now claim as ours, the recent carnal Carnival a typical case in point.
