Let’s again be clear: the “PRC’s” of today are yesterday’s West Indian and Portuguese people (your ancestors and mine) who came here for a better life and made a meaningful contribution to Bermuda. They struggled against discrimination to educate their children, build homes for themselves and respect the civil authority of the day. Were it not for these stalwarts we would not be enjoying the lifestyle we so frequently brag about and most certainly would not be free to protest in the manner that now, unfortunately, seems to be the new norm. We cannot accept that two thousand, three thousand, or even four thousand people should speak and act in such negative ways and as such determine the fate of more than 60 thousand residents.
