I just want to say, I have a B.A. from the University of Miami and onion and carrots posts are extremely articulate and are hard for me to understand (you write like a philosopher or something
. You must either spend 6 hours writing each post or be an English major or something. As far as the topic, one thing I can say is I've never seen a Haitian involved in a robbery or killing in the DR. My best friend in Miami was Haitian and they seem like pretty good people. It really ****es me off when Dominicans talk down to them and I usually let them know it. When I first met my wife she basically thought as them as sub-human, but she also thought 99% of all Dominicans were sub-human, luckily she was flexible and is learning to be a lot more accepting.
So you say you haven't seen Haitians committing crimes while on this side of the Island? Then I say you haven't been on the Island for very long. Give yourself time and you will witness this firsthand. Just this past Monday two Haitians were arrested in the Colinas section of Santiago, for burglarizing and then killing an elderly woman.
Don't get me wrong, I know Dominicans rob and kill just as much as Haitian, So now that we got that out of the way, my answer to your post and the topic of this thread has nothing to do Haitians committing crimes.
As the sovereign nation that we are, gives us the rights to preserve our nationality by deporting anyone within Dominican soil without the proper papers. Whether people think it right or wrong, isn't the issue, as such; you might find it wrong for us to deport them, but as stated in previous post, Dominicans also get deported everyday from other countries, so why ask for a double standard when our government tries to apply its laws in this country.
Furthermore,I have found that many Dominicans that have been removed from the Island for a long period of time have lost their patriotism towards the country. These Dominicans don't have a clue as to what's a stake right now, thus rendering them clueless to the actual Haitian invasion. These same Dominicans know very little of the countries history, or of the amount of blood that was shed by their past countrymen just to maintain the right to be called Dominicans.
Since it's inception, the DR has fought eight battles with its neighboring country. Till this very day the battle for control of the Island rages on. Some might argue that "all this took place a very long time ago", ergo it has no bearing on current events between both nations. I say don't let yourself be fooled by these people. Even thought much of this happened long ago, I still like to think that the wound might have healed, but to many Dominicans myself included, the scare still remains.
Nevertheless, we Dominicans find ourselves battling a different kind of war, one of invasion by peaceful means, still an invasion non the less. Today we are under constant attack by Haitians and international NGO's who's only interest is to unite the Island, hence creating one single country, wherein our sovereignty, nationality, culture and costumes are integrated with that of the Haitians, thus erasing any sign that we once existed as a sole nation.
In the process to achieve their goals, they've resigned themselves to name calling by way of an international propaganda campaign in the hopes of attracting international attention, thus strangling any future investments by the international community to the DR. They've gone as far as calling us racist, xenophobic, slave masters, human rights violators and many other adjectives hoping that by doing this, they will stop the economic growth that the DR has experienced during the past twenty or so years.
But wait it gets even better, what the Haitians and their proponents have failed to notice is that the DR and it's people have done much more for them than all the NGO's currently in Haiti combined. During the past 40 or 50 years Haiti has been the number one recipient of international donation in the western hemisphere, yet during this time all these NGO's have yet to show the progress they've achieved while in Haiti. The DR and it's people on the other hand, thanks to its economic growth, has done much more to help the same people that today want to destroy our economy in the hopes of Island unification.
Talk about being a nation of ingrates, during the 2010 earthquake, the DR and every other country on earth pledged relief funds for Haiti; yet every one of those country except for the DR reneged on their promise. We were the first ones there and have been the last to leave, with exception of the NGO's who call Haiti home of course. We promised the Haitian people a University and complied with that promise, but not long after, the Haitian government and it's crafty intellectuals changed the name of said University from the name given by the DR government, (Universidad Dr. Juan Busch) to a name of a Haitian general (Henri Christophe) this same general is attributed the most heinous and atrocious act ever committed to Dominican people on Dominican soil.

Nos humillaron en Hait? - Acento
Sure the Haitians and their proponent have been working their black magic (no pun intended) against us for quite some time, but I guess we Dominicans have GOD on our side, thus the reason why no matter how much they attack, accuse and defile our good name, we've always managed to land on our feet and squeaky clean no less.
and finally; el fin!!!
