Empiricist 3 years, 9 months ago on ‘Get your jabs without delay’ – 33,600 vaccine doses arrive

Dear Father in heaven can you please spare us from the ongoing hatred of this person called Tribanon. During this season of our Savior’s crucifixion and resurrection please place the spirit of peace and goodwill in the heart of this person so that this daily barrage of insults stops. In your name we pray. Amen.

Empiricist 3 years, 6 months ago on Minnis: We have not yet completed marijuana legislation

I urge the Government to really reconsider legalizing this poison. Please have the testicular fortitude to say marijuana will continue to be illegal. Look at the health problems in our country caused by smoking marijuana. Obesity, violence, High Blood Pressure, BiPolar mental problems, female abuse and the list goes on. Look at the nation of Singapore. They are one of the world’s most competitive and productive nations and marijuana is illegal. There is no demand for this drug whatsoever. Compare Singapore to Jamaica and you will get my point.

ThisIsOurs 3 years, 6 months ago on Minnis: We have not yet completed marijuana legislation

i agree with you on the holes in the argument but not on the stance. I think theyve put just as much thought into this marijuana issue that they put into the gaming. Its all about how much money THEY can get. A new batch of addicts will be created and families destroyed with this legalization. Theres no if ands or buts about that. Im sure they'll have a march through downtown soon with all the marijuana supporters. 4 years from now the doctors and psychiatrists will tell us about the damage, it wont be the majority but it will be enough. then the growers will establish a fund to ... show how much they care.

Try meditation and exercise for your altered state of consciousness. Leave marijuana and alcohol, the twin destroyers, alone. Strengthen your faith in the Almighty and stop looking for excuses to destroy our youth.

Empiricist 3 years, 6 months ago on Minnis: We have not yet completed marijuana legislation

Could someone please tell me what value is derived from smoking or eating marijuana? Absolutely nothing. What are the consequences from smoking marijuana? Wild unfulfillable illusions, hunger leading to gluttony, trances where individuals become spaced out zombies and the list continues. As I am urging try meditation and yoga, exercise and prayers. I bet you our nation will be transformed. Let’s give it a try.

Wanting to get shit smeared all over your dick is not a mental illness. Forcing your children to live with a micropenis or scars where their breasts once were is not child abuse.

Signs of the times I guess....

Empiricist 3 years, 6 months ago on Two VAT holidays to help families cope

Now these are genuinely sincere and compassionate efforts by a concerned Government that reflect foresight, insight, prescient planning and a focus on the people from all sectors and strata of our nation.

Never has there ever been a Government in the Bahamas with such strategic thinking in response to disasters like hurricanes and the pandemic. When the history of this period is written it will be said that without the leadership of our Prime Minister and the presence of the FNM in power our nation would have sunk to the level of Haiti. God forbid that we would ever see Bahamians becoming illegal immigrants in the USA. My fear was that that would have happened and could very well happen under a corrupt PLP Government, destruction of our moral and ethical values notwithstanding.

God bless you Prime Minister Minnis.

Our Prime Minister is second to no other Prime Minister when it comes to ethics, morality and education. All previous Prime Ministers were deficient on all of those parameters. Now we have a leader for the times and an icon for the nation. Say what they wish, we love you Prime Minister. We trust you. We know you will take us to the promised land of prosperity, democracy and decency. Thanks.

bahamianson 3 years, 6 months ago on PLP Deputy: Budget is 'badly flawed'

"The budget is badly flawed", do toj think we expect you to say it is perfect? You do what you do, criticize everything the government does and call it bad. Good job, opposition. Frankly, i am tired of this politics business. It gets this country no where, and i am not voting. He they say the sun is black, you will say it is white.

I wonder if Cooper is real or just another PLP incompetent crook? Time will tell I guess. Still gotta wonder if he is real why be a PLP? 40 plus years of nothing but corruption. Why would anyone real be PLP???

Empiricist 3 years, 6 months ago on PLP Deputy: Budget is 'badly flawed'

My goodness. Wow. Mr. Cooper has collected every available negative and critical cliche to describe and dirty the soundness of the prescient Budget. It is unfortunate that he forgot one fundamental of economics, which is : a Budget is a projection of the future, ceteris paribus ( all other things being equal). It is the best alternative under prevailing conditions. He forgets this basic principle and purposely overlooks all the wonderful strategies our Government has deftly deployed to address the unpredictable disasters it was forced to tackle. Come on give Jack his Jacket.

This gentleman offers absolutely nothing of substance in his critique. One would be forced to say that what this man said about the budget is akin to two women cussing each other out at the Craft Market. This is the level of his lack of intellectual sophistication. Our nation deserves better.

Empiricist 3 years, 6 months ago on Scores gather for Labour Day event

Unfortunately our Prime Minister has become the punching bag for every person with a gripe. He is Damned if he does and Damned if he doesn’t.

Take this case of an ill timed Labor Day Parade. When the Covid-19 infections start to increase and people get seriously ill and oxygen supplies run out, he will be Damned for not planning ahead. And when it is explained that in order to maintain the current supply as well as the supply of oxygen in the pipeline is the reason why the parade was ill advised at this time people will sing another song. They say he is this and that. And every Obie, Tribanon and Janet will try to pull him down.

Have we not read about or seen what is happening in India? It was precisely because Prime Minister Modi failed to stop mass celebrations at traditional festivals that India finds itself in the sad state it is in. Try as he might, Prime Minister Modi cannot turn back the hands of time.

So those individuals like Mr. Ferguson who is using the opportunity of the Labor Day Parade to generate business for his legal practice should stop and put the health of the public above and beyond his pocketbook.

The Prime Minister has once again shown true leadership. And irrespective of what his usual detractors will prattle. HE DID THE RIGHT THING. Thank you Prime Minister Minnis.
