"Get Him!" The Drama, the Mace, and a Throwback to Sir Lynden

If you thought politics was boring, December 8, 2024, just proved otherwise. During a fiery session of the Bahamian Parliament, tempers flared, voices rose, and then—boom!—the ceremonial mace was hurled out of the chamber. To top it off, the Speaker of the House yelled, “Get him!” at security, and just like that, a moment meant for history books turned into the internet’s favorite new meme.

Now, let’s break it down for those who might not know why a mace was even in the room. The mace isn’t just fancy decor; it’s the symbol of the Speaker’s authority and the power of Parliament. Without it, Parliament can’t even legally meet. So, throwing it out? That’s a power move, a clear statement of defiance.

And this isn’t even the first time it’s happened. Back in the day, none other than Sir Lynden Pindling, the Father of the Nation, did the same. In 1965, Sir Lynden dramatically threw the mace out of Parliament, symbolizing the fight for Bahamian independence from British colonial rule. That moment was a bold stand against oppression. But this time? The motives were less historic and more chaotic.

What makes this moment unforgettable is the viral energy it sparked. Within hours, “Get him!” took over TikTok, Snapchat, and Instagram. From remix videos to parody skits, Bahamians turned a serious political moment into comedy gold.

Still, beneath the jokes lies a deeper question: what does this say about how we solve problems in Parliament? Whether it’s a symbolic throwback to Sir Lynden or just a sign of today’s tension, one thing’s for sure—politics just got a lot more entertaining.

The mace might not have the last word, but it knows how to make headlines.
