So before wet brain sets in fully, take this from a racist foreigner, you need to stand up.

As a youth growing up our parents gave us samples of alcohol so what different is this?! Allowing a tourist or a responsible Bermudian to have a beer or margherita on harbour nights is your biggest worry! You should shut TF up with your old a%$ and lay down. It’s enforced against anyone, you walk down front street with a beer and see what happens! YOU TEACH YOUR YOUTH that it’s not ok to have alcohol until 18…regardless they’re going to do it anyways. If you want to drink heavily go into a bar on front street. FREE UP a little bra! Nothing wrong with a drink or two at harbour nights. We as a people (obviously not you as I know you’re not Bermudian) drink at everything else anyways….lay down

Where is the Senior Magistrate in all of this ? Has he been removed as Chairman ? It would almost seem fitting since he has been cracking down on those that broke the law . Remove the Judge and we will have a free hand at things . This will not end well for the average Bermudian .In the end , we have too many outlets selling alcohol .Will a few more hurt anything ? You be the Judge .

The typical ignorant cry of the bermudian racist.

Drinking in public was illegal for a reason but it is only enforced against the homeless anyway. Shut TF up.

No doubt the head of it has a last name beginning with an S and ending with an i.

You need help.

And remove any independence from the panel

Clearly this event which brings together Bermudiana, residents and tourists in a positive, festive and early evening event, lends itself to being able to have a beer or a glass of wine while supporting this well run weekly event.
It’s quite unbelievable that this has not happened at such a natural lfestive Bermudian event.
It is completely accepted all over the world that controlled, well run events such as Harbour nights can serve beer and wine to its patrons.
Bermuda needs to compete and cater to its customers or be left behind.
