As quiet as the PLP supporters in the Port Royal discussion?

Show me where I defended him? It’s funny how OBA supporters always think any negative comments automatically means one is a PLP supporter.
Truth be told, I was disgusted with the PLP on many levels and I am quickly becoming just as disgusted with the OBA. Look at their many scandals in such a short time! At least the PLP behaved themselves during their probationary period. It just sickens me that Bermuda is in the hands of two groups that BOTH display such bad behavior.

You all expected the former government to combat the gang warfare. I remember making NUMEROUS posts stating that the shootings are not tied in to who is in government, and the OBA supporters JUMPED ALL OVER ME. Two years in and they have all gone quiet.

That thought crossed my mind as well. Was this just a strategic move to grab the female vote? Truth be told, Mrs. Marshall may not be very popular with the males. Is this all being ‘bigged up’ to attract women…this sudden “standing up for the women of Bermuda”?

Young “bies”? The way you speak of the opposition shows a total lack of respect. Would you refer to young, white males are “bies”?

By: Self

Self — Sun, 16 Nov 2014 10:04:05 +0000

They promised to STOP the shootings, remember? Maybe this is all to distract everybody’s attention away from the fact that they haven’t! By the comments alone, this story seems to have caught more attention than four men shot!

I tried to find the comments on the website with no luck. Maybe somebody can tell me if they’re still posted? In any event, please accept that I am not defending Mr. Bean. I obviously don’t know what was said, but if true totally unacceptable from a political leader.
However, my point remains that with Bermuda literally hanging by a thread, we don’t need any more unnecessary drama. The matter was reported to the police, let them investigate. Ms. Daniels has the option to take legal action against Mr. Bean for slander. There are other options besides the action the OBA took. We are trying to bring Bermuda back from the brink, lure overseas investors here and get back on track. I am NOT coming from the angle of a PLP supporter or an OBA supporter, I am coming from the angle of a supporter for BERMUDA. ALL of the politicians need to get it together!!!

Didn’t the opportunities you refer to deminish during the plp’s term it didn’t start with the OBA. Bermuda is now experiencing the fall out from decisions made during that time. Don’t kid yourself that our current situation suddenly happened when the OBA came in to power. You real what you sow.

You do not have your numbers right at all. If you were right unemployment wold be at 35%. It is closer to 7%. I am one of them so don’t make any comments in that regard.

No, because it was not for medical purposes. It was an irresponsible parent giving an illegal substance to a small child.

You must be rich cause during their 14 years i saw the small man build something out of nothing. Before it was hard to renovate ya home cause you didn’t have enough working 2-3 jobs and not having time for your child. Education on the college level looked achievable now its impossible for those that cant afford it. We as a people had a voice now we don’t even exist. What happen to the people of st george’s, they didn’t get the work or jobs that they were promised. So be for real and know your facts before making comments you know nothing about.

So where you there, did you hear what he said, i don’t think so. And if what he said was so bad why didn’t the OBA just come out with it, and not hide behind a website.
. All you being blinded but what is really going on. Almost all the work cites i see round the island is mostly non bermudians, what happen to the 60-40 rule. And most of them are newbies I’ve never seen them until now, and private companies doing work that’s normally done but government workers. What happen to the 2000 jobs for us. It was 8000 out of work now its gone to 12000 without a job in just 2years.
. So get off this he said she said BS and look at whats really going on.

How on earth does a so called man like Bean remain as the opposition leader ? this wannabe… has said the most discusting thingS in the HOA,did anyone hear him on the sherri show on Friday?he made a few personal accusations about the young ladies in the OBA.

An even more interesting question would be to Mr. Simmons who the report says was present. Lets see his true character by asking him what was indeed said as he was present at the time. Be interesting to see his side compared to what Mrs. Daniels has said, and further more, any other witnesses that was also present and have been questioned by the police.

See, now that’s the scary part. Indirect comments made about a GROUP that Mrs. Swan was a part of. Followed up by an embarrassing response by Mrs. Swan, taking the comment fully out of text. Now being compared to what Mr. Bean is alleged to have done?
I have tried to wrap my head around how ANYBODY can condone or defend this alleged behavior; only to come to the reality of this being a prime example of why we have social issues in Bermuda today.
Oh well; carry on defending.

By: Tolerate

Tolerate — Sat, 15 Nov 2014 16:17:02 +0000

@ Self;I think you missed the point completely. As stated here, Mr. Bean is the leader of the Opposition? This behavior to anyone especially a woman with the vile comments that were allegedly made warrant addressing. Sorry if you do not feel that way; but he was out of order and there is NO way I can condone defending him.

Agree with you 100%, but it appears it was a walk out on the individual who had the floor, and they returned. Not the next day, next week, next month; a few hours later. I know, apples and oranges, but not as dramatic as making accusations against the Governor and refusing to come back until he is removed.
By the way, how that work out?
