Devil finds work for idle hands
Murders and gang related crime, including violence in the schools are plaguing the country, and getting worse by the minute.
Body language and a republic
If body language speaks, we clearly saw the body language of Prime Minister Davis being received by His Majesty Charles III as Prime Minister of one of His Realm States very clearly Republic is not on this Prime Minister’s agenda.
Good and bad news on human development
The good news is that The Bahamas has risen three places (from 58th to 55th in the world) in the United Nations’ first post-pandemic Human Development Index.
Disingenuous over protest by Coalition
In the September 15 Nassau Guardian editorial titled “Pintard must stay focused,” the writer, who I strongly believe could be Juan McCartney, took aim at Coalition of Independents Leader Lincoln Bain for leading a protest against the Progressive Liberal Party’s plan to amend the Bahamas Nationality Act.
Man accused of attacking his father with hammer
A MAN was granted $3,000 bail in Magistrate’s Court on Friday after he was accused of attacking his father with a hammer.
Tribune headline
While your story appearing in the business section of Thursday the 15th September, 2022 regarding a recent action involving two erstwhile clients of mine was somewhat balanced in its content, the chosen headline (“Ex-Minister’s son Denies Land Fraud”) tends to suggest that I was either a party or defendant to the action in question.
Dear Mr Pintard
If you don’t support legislation allowing Bahamian men and women to pass citizenship to their unborn children, I will not support your party in the next general election.
Madness and folly
The proposed Martial Rape Bill is what King Solomon would refer to as: madness and folly, and a chase after the wind.
Water crisis
I would like to write about a crisis we are and probably will experience sometime in our lives. Something many of us take for granted, that of water availability and purity. There are 37 nations globally who are experiencing extreme water stress today. Seven of these nations are Caribbean. Water Resource Groups estimate that by 2030, if no action is taken, with the projected population and economic growth rates, water demand will out pace globally supply by 40%.
Marriage Act
Not wanting to get ahead of the discussion, but with the upcoming third attempt of amending the Marriage Act, we can presume that many of the “i’s” and “t’s” have been crossed and the passing will only be a formality after the planned symposium irons out the kinks.
The death of Queen Elizabeth
The international community continues to mourn the passing of Queen Elizabeth II on September 8 at Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire, United Kingdom.
Politics as monarch changes
Such a short time ago we lost our Sovereign Queen - Queen of The Commonwealth of The Bahamas - monarchists will mourn anti-monarchists will see an opportunity to lobby - push for the removal of the Sovereign as Head of State to a Democratic Republic like the majority of the Commonwealth of Nations.
Tribute to Omar Davis Jr
OMAR Davis, Jr, was buried peacefully yesterday. His death still haunts me. I imagined a great many are still pondering, still trying to make claims of his body in the attempt that knowledge may be found there.
Marital rape and history
Apparently, there is a lack of understanding surrounding the Marital Rape issue that seems consensual. We know what the problem is, and we have had documentation in place since 2009 to address the issue with the removal and inclusion of a couple of words.
Mackey St response
I am sure it would be understood and a natural reaction to say to the Mackey Street man, give it a rest, but all things being equal, that would probably just spur him on to continue his ill-disguised and ill-advised campaign to see Michael Pintard unseated as leader of the Free National Movement.
