oK, ALOT of some what you said I will not reply to since nothing nice will come out of my keyboard...But I will comment on this...So since I'm haitian it makes a difference if I insulted you and rather it(insults) come from lets just say "colombians". I know so many who talk about you guys so bad that I have to say damn..cut it out...everyone have good and bad within their community...but would a domincan do the same..not many but I have dominicans friends in the DR/USA/Canada/Venezuela/Haiti who would stand up or at least tell them to put a lid on it...
See I find that only poor/low class dominicans talk bad about poor/low class haitians...Majority of the middle/upper class knows better and wouldn't dare disrespect or stereotype a middle/class haitian...You know Why? Cause we are not fighting for petty crums just to get by.. I've never been offended by a dominican until I came onto this board..Well, only once a dominican on the train from NY to NJ asked me and a friend if we were speaking french and we replied know we are speaking creole..and his comment to his pana was "No parece como Haitainos..Los haitianos son oscuro y feo" Thats when I had to put his little chopo behind in check b4 he got off the train to go home to the slums of N. Newark...luckily the next stop was his or I would've............. I hope you get the picture
When will you people stop stereotyping and be realistic...Like you said everyones culture and nation can be ridiculed.....And the way you say "Haitian" has a negative conotation...Anyway, back to the subject..ALL HAITAINS SPEAK CREOLE AND NOT PATWA..

FuegoAzul21 said:Dominicans do vodou too , its not so much a part of our culture like it is for the Haitians .Now ,im really gonna have to disagree with you on people insulting us and stayin quiet, where im from there have been riots when there was mob disrespect toward us and i know very few Dominicans that would stay shut when being dissed by another Hispanic becuase of our culture,becuase they ALL have flaws (other hispanics)and things to be made fun of that would hurt them emotionally, so many dont even try to talk crap in our faces (they know the consequences) .Also , the same treatment you feel you recieve on these boards would be the same if u were Jamaican, Trinidadian, PR,Cuban,Colombian,Mexican or whatever , however because of Historical reasons and other reasons too,people get more offended when it comes from a Haitian . as for the way we speak , im proud of it , no matter how wrong or correct it is ,its my language and im gonna speak it no matter what ANYBODY says and they way i want to , i beleive most Dominicans share my veiw on that . Plus what do you mean by "ready for a civil war".? if you mean war against Haiti it wouldnt a civil war, just a war(to be politically correct).Now to stay on topic, Haitians speak Creole(according to the English language books)
