"Im doing the slow clap"
Me too! That was a BRILLIANT rant!!!! (A bit "hysterical" but brilliant none the less)
Some thoughts...then I'll keep my "horseshit opinion & "agenda" (WHAT AGENDA LOLOLOLOL!) to myself:
"instead of admitting you used it incorrectly, much as you disregard the current situation in Negril in an attempt to add value to your opinion."
I didn't use it incorrectly but I did cop to the fact that it might not have been the "best" word to use. In case you don't "get it" the above use of the word "hysterical" was meant to be sarcastic.
"In fact, if believed it puts many people in harm’s way, because it is total BS."
I'm not sure I understand how I'm putting people in "harms way" by expressing an opinion that the chances of tourists being gunned down is slim. Please clarify.
"perhaps a little vigilante group needs to be formed to eradicate these low-life criminals."
Let me know when you organize that and how it goes. When my friends house was robbed 5 years ago the entire neighborhood was out in the bush looking for the thieves. Is THAT the kind of "vigilante" group you are talking about? If so, I guess my neighborhood has a neighborhood "watch".
Things are really not good in Negril right now, I have never denied that and never will. I have friends that I love that live there full time, I'm living there 3 months a year - so this apparent escalation in crime, especially gun violence disturbs me deeply. But I'm a lover, not a fighter so I'll take a page from my friend Audrey's book and continue to write letters to all that SHOULD care...because that's actually something proactive that I can do.
Meantime, I'll be back next winter, with my friends and community. Others may choose different vacation plans - but I won't.
