Can Bahamians drink and behave responsibly?

EDITOR, The Tribune

Your editorial yesterday April 29 was interesting beyond Minister Dames’ lack of transparency.

Prime Minister Dr Minnis, in bringing in the curfew and lockdown on us like the Sioux & Cheyenne Indians ambush of General Custer, left no time for anyone to make any plans, much less stock up on items that “The Most Honourable” thinks that we don’t need to have. Yet, he has not so much as whispered a reason why not. We can buy gas now from 9-5 but we still can’t buy a hot or cold beer, nor a bottle of rum, gin or vodka.

Except, of course, if we want to commit a crime and buy it on the black market, or out the back door of someone’s house. Word on the street is that he doesn’t think that Bahamians can drink alcohol and behave responsibly, but he is too scared to risk the next election by saying so, and “shut mout catch no fly”. Does he have a heart, where is his heart ? Doesn’t he have a soul?
