Just to be clear, in case anyone missed it...this was the 9th murder this week in WESTMORELAND....not in Negril.
My friends - residents and stakeholders in Negril have been crying out for military presence IN Negril for the past 5 years. I think the government is afraid it will scare tourists off.
While these incidents are targeted "assassinations" and none involve tourists, this incident at Keneys is way too close for comfort by any stretch of the imagination. I've managed to live my entire life without actually seeing a shooting - I can't even imagine being on vacation, a tropical "relaxing" vacation no less, eating at a popular tourist spot and having this happen.
