Reverend arrested for 'offensive' allegations against Commissioner
True. Is libel something you get arrested or questioned by police for? Or do you just get a summons to appear in court? It does seem very Hitlerish. Perry Christie started this when he used the armed forces to threaten a song writer
I could see if the man threatened to kill someone, that's a different matter. I havent seen the notorious video, saying someone got paid this and that to look the other way or slept with so and so doesn't seem like something you'd arrest someone for. If that's the sum total of what was said it looks like we are headed in SS and Ton Ton Macoute territory.

Put the vendors in the National Training Agency 12 week boot-camp to teach them manners, cleanliness, honesty, work ethic, morals, etc ......... because the owners are tired of them making the Cabbage beach environment a nasty and unpleasant site for the tourists ....... that is what happen when "mentally unwashed" Over the Hill people are turned loose on a 5-star property/beach

-
If the access was "sold" "granted" or "promised" to the developer, then the Government must immediately get it back and retain it as a public right of way.
-
If the vendors are the issue, then they need to go to training school.
-
Have the beach manned by at least one officer. There should be sign posted that any harassment by the vendors is to be immediately reported and after the first warning the vendor will be put off the beach.
First and foremost, however, the access should NOT be closed.

Well, I want to get to the beach at Simms Point ( Nygard Cay ) so they better get rid of that security gate at Lyford Cay entrance. Yeah, and I want to go swim at Old Fort Bay beach and I don't want anyone to be stopping me at any gate or asking me any questions. And I wouldn't talk about Albany - going there too. And I used to go camping at Long Beach at the east end of PI so they better get rid of that bloody gate at the Ocean Club Golf course and allow me to go across the property of all those damned expensive houses built right behind the high water mark. And why can't I get out to swim in the harbor like I used to at Prince George Dock by the cruise ships. ? Get rid of that security gate so I could go through please. And Arawak Cay want to se my driver's license before they let me through to go swim out there. Come now Government - open it ALL for we Bahamian people. Make Trespass lawful wherever the sea and beach has to be accessed. We gotta get our shit together Bahamas !

“Three generations of vendors have been on this beach, for more than 60 years,”
Let's see now, the bridge was not built until 1968 , 48 years ago. With the exception of the Porcupine Club and Paradise Beach there were no public operations on HOG ISLAND in 1956 .....emmmmm..... 60 years....nope.
Certainly NOT on Cabbage Beach 60 years ago.
Beach vendors were in very, very small numbers in 1974. It was mainly the parasailing and other water sports, vendors in those days.

I am a Bahamian but due to the fact that I am white I am considered to be a tourist by the Vendors---When I tell them, as politely as possible, that I am not interested in buying any of their wares I am cursed and ridiculed in the most offensive manner---This is in front of my wife & children---This is a great way to encourage our tourist trade---These people should not be allowed anywhere near the beach!

Comrade Bogart, may I spare you the time to research when for over 30 years now I have seen street signs and signs on government buildings in Abaco, in the Haitian Creole, French language. Our own government's of prime ministers Christie and Papa Hubert, employs school teachers for Haitian Creole, French language classes.

Why and how we ever allowed vendors on our beaches is beyomd me. Incredibly bad idea. Our beaches should be peaceful, a place to lie back and relax. Not hounded by vendors selling cheap chinese crap....

‘Don’t show leniency to COVID test fakers’
If you give the first fakers the maximum penalty then you are unlikely to have more people doing it. However, if you are lenient on the first fakers the chances of MANY more people doing it increases significantly.
For example, if the fine is only $75 then I'll certainly consider saving time and inconvenience and just cut and paste a new date on an old result.

The same issue exists with using fake documents to accompany immigration applications.
Well, ever wonder, why it is that the authorities, never seem to put much effort into going after and charging the individuals who were paid the moneys' to forge the fake documents? Some individuals, could be using fake documents, innocently?

A woman was the instigator of this crime, the Bahamian women are becoming as corrupt as the men, maybe even more. The Bahamas is finished, especially Nassau.

The death penalty won't stop the murders.
Europe Union does not have the death penalty, the United States does. Texas alone has executed some 500 since the death penalty was reinstated.
See were the most murders are committed European Union vs USA.
