I’m a BORN BERMUDIAN…
And I have no idea what you are saying here. It looks like just a string of words pretending to be a sentence.

As for “Getting over it”, shouldn’t you lot, the ones that have lost, time and again, in court, when you try to hurt Born Bermudians for absolutely no reason, “Get the _____ over it”?

That may be true, but at least the UBP/OBA is not seeking to enshrine discrimination against the LBGTQ community into law.

Our current PLP Government is appealing to the Privy Council to make such discrimination mandatory!

Created a referendum that feeds into hate and bigotry? I fail to understand this. I could say any educated person, but even myself with only a GED, knew that the referendum was literally a waste of my time to go tick a box because the Bermuda constitution would over rule it anyway.

If you wasted your time going there to tick a box I have some unfortunate news for you. In the words of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson….IT DOESN’T MATTER.

Straightforward I do not like you telling people that you are a born Bermudian so please stop referring to yourself that way. I am a born Bermudian and I am sure I am nothing like you. You make me sick.

A March on the same day as the LGBQT march by those who voted against same sex marriage & the lifestyle would continually let Bermuda & the world know this is a democratic society with beliefs. And we can show our feelings for preserving marriage between a Man & A Woman peacefully. We all do wrong, but it don’t mean those wrongs cannot be protested.

OBA: We condemn these threats
Also OBA: Creates a referendum that feeds into hatred and bigotry

“and would ask that the Government also condemns these threats.”

I would go further and ask all politicians to condemn all forms of discrimination and intimidation against any segment of our community.

Fun fact….Morgan’s Point would have been developed in 1999 had it not been for the PLP, specifically Terry Lister.

The PLP, reducing Bermuda to rubble for 20 years.

Don’t hold your breath on the oba either they didn’t do crap for us when in POWER, but now they act like they change their minds.

My friends if the next election came down to giving the LBGT what we wanted a long time ago and them winning……..trust me this group would prefer to be Govt and do nothing for us again.

So Dwayne can say all the bloody lies he wants on social media.

demands for governments to “condemn” things is shallow and silly.

If they don’t condemn a subject after being asked, then they are guilty in the court of public opinion as being a supporter of that subject, and if they do condemn it then you have to question whether it’s honest or not…

becareful……..its still early days Morgans Point still may be a Jewel rather than a thorn…the important factor is yes the OBA created an opportunity for Tourism Growth …also they started the St. Regis in st. Georges …also snapped up the AC that pumped 100 of millions of $$ into our economy and we still are seeing benefits in tourism from the outstanding TV coverage ….lets turn to the circus in charge now ………….nope didn’t think you’d come up with anything ….and as for this 2nd tier golf event Zane bought …I can only hope we at least get our money back ….but somehow if its a plp endeavor not a chance

The PLP screwed up the economy, and investment stopped. It ain’t that hard to understand,

They cant be seen to being sympathetic towards the LBGTQ community they will lose a big % of their religious voter base ….but let a union member have an issue with disciplinary action by an employer …they will roll out the pay for crowd and unions will threaten to shut the island down…. no this government aren’t here for all Bermudians …only selected ones ….those who vote for them no matter how bad they

They didn’t condemn the death threats spray painted on North Shore a few months back (they just condemned the manner in which the threats were communicated).

So don’t expect the PLP to bat an eye lid at their base threatening others once again. They are who they are and they hate who they hate.
