Re: yes go and be 1 of the 300

Go and have a great time if you don't get guned down by the police. There was over 300 shooting deats by the police last year. It must be safe they kill anyone that is close to a crime. So there should not be any criminals on the streets. Hey and you may get lucky and get shagged by the local police there. SO ARE YOU SAFE THERE? Well as safe as anywhere in this great world.

Re: yes go and have a good time!

Hi Laura,

What a "Mickey Mouse" thing to say, exactly when was the last time you were in the Dominican Republic, and what did you do, that gives you this keen insight? . . . .

I just got back from Boca Chica. If you just want to party and have a good time,,,,then there will be no problem. The police are out in force at all resorts. If you are really parnoid then get a police wistle. A real loud one. All crooks hate noise. Actually majority of DR people are gentle and non violent. In Boca Chica you can walk the streets at all hours without a problem (I did).

Ady, You wont have any problem in Juan Dolio at all. I travel to the DR 6 or 7 times a month, and was in Juan Dolio last week and never have a problem. In fact I was in Jual Dolio looking at an apartment to buy, its a great town with very friendly poeple and great resorts. Please don't be worried at all.....have a presidente beer for me!

Re: How safe is in D.R. unofficial mayor

What now the average person is mayor. Anyone that says they are a unoffical mayor what the hell does that stand for? Any thing like unofficial President of the USA> What the hell is this? I would like to know who is the unofficial asshole?

I lived in the DR for a year and a half in 4 different cities (including Santiago) and didn't have any problems. In fact, I was more worried to come home to the US where I feel very unsafe.

What's the deal, Laura, John, whatever

Laura or John (you post in Bravenet as John right?) Make a decision, is it Laura or John? Just curious as to why you keep using different names...

Is it possible that we have one person with two different personalities here? I think there is a medical term for this behavior: 'Dork'. . .
