Public Holiday. Cabbage Beach Closed to Bahamians. Chain across the public access. Pylons preventing people from parking. At the beach access there is a new sign saying that the owner of the beach access has the right to restrict access. There is an umbrella for the 3 security guards, the two police cars, the three policemen and a guy in a suit with a radio.

The sign says that people use the access at the pleasure of the owner, and the pleasure of the owner is enforced by the security guards.

This is how Bahamians gave away their patrimony.

BUT serioulsy he will get what he is looking for if he thinks that he can closed Cabbage Beach.... I know that they can limit access.. but to close a BEACH....

I can see Andrew Wilson putting about 1,000 black childreb from ova da hill in a bus and hosting a BIG free party LOL.. I can hear the plans from ma boy at the best watering hole on Nassau, ready to go... so I guess access may be limited but to stop Black people from going to the beach.... BOL...

Yet another sign that we Bahamians are becoming second class citizens in own country.

Again, the innocent suffering for the guilty few.

Lurker,

Are you in the Bahamas? You gave a description as if you were there. Either or, the person who told you, has a very good knack for the detail!

Sad though, one little murder, and its spoiled for the rest of us. But, it should be open again, after all of the heat of these fights. Bahamians have a knack, for doing things in double- this is a safety precaution, and not a permament fixture; I hope!

i dont blame kerzner for it at all. when these drunken fellas and jungalists go to cabbage beach they harass the guests, smoke, drink, cuss, bring weapons and fight. this is not the first time that these incidences happen over PI. kerzner's first priority is to his guest and his investment and with that incident happen last time do you want that same thing happen again? he is investing all this money and these stupid idiots are willing to destroy his image and the country with it. besides there are numerous beaches in nassau. there is no beach shortage.

But can you blame them? Bahamians need to learn how to conduct themselves when they are in public! They made this annoucement on the news last evening BUT they didn't say the beach would be blocked off!

i agree its about time a message be send out to our people if you misbehave thats it and we don't care this one reason why we have a problem now in violence with young people. we need to put our foot down say enough with the foolishness.

All beaches should be open to All Bahamians All the Time..PERIOD

besides there are numerous beaches in nassau.

Really? Where are they at?

there is no beach shortage.

Are you kidding?

BAHAIMIANS?!!! Have you ever seen how some those tourist (spring breakers and others) carry on over there. I worked PI for over a year as a police officer and I can assure you that we had more problems from foreigners than from Bahamians.
We need to stop being prejudiced. The vast majority of Bahamians just want to go over there in peace and enjoy their beach. Trust me they lucky I wasn't there. I would have run all those security and police and enjoyed our beach that we inherited!
I'll bet you those security would have let a white tourist family walk past them and go on the beach. They would have probably put on a big negro smile for them and helped them with their bags.
How many murders and disturbances happen on Miami beach every year. Do you think they would then close their beach to Americans!!!
This Bull sh!t needs to stop!!! And it will!!! Ain Long!!!

in the words of the Saxons DEY CAUSE DIS.How would we feel if we had a property and every holiday groups of loud,rowdy.disrespectul persons came and left mounds of garbage behind.Not to mention the fights and most recently a murder.should the owner go on as business as usual. hell no. instead of getting down on the owner we need to think about how bad our people carry on at these beaches.especially young people.when and how did we become so lawless.yes it is our right to have acess to public beaches, but come one people with freedom there should also be a level of respect. what happen to our 'Brought- up-see'

All beaches should be open to All Bahamians All the Time..PERIOD
beaches are opened to the public but you have to realize also that kerzner should have the right to protect his investment. these stupid fellas aint going to cabbage beach to have fun, they are going to cause trouble. they are harrassing the visiting women and cursing them out when they are rejected. they are cursing loudly, drinking, smoking, littering and fighting amongst themselves in front of guests. do you think as a tourist that flew 1000 miles to a resort to relax on the resort's beach want to see this type of activities going on amongst the locals? they dont blame the country you know, they blame the resort. hotels owners and investors want to protect their image and if it means to close the beach to bahamians then so be it.

So if a tourist commits a murder on PI will you then say Ban all tourist from the PI beaches?
Yawl need to wake up!
Kezner is benefiting more from us than we are from him!

But do they resort to violence or better yet kill ppl?

I still say we need to learn how to behave when we are in public.....take a walk on Goodman's Bay this evening!

On holidays I am even ashamed to say I am Bahamian! And they were on the beach from early this morning keeping their spot!
