Refugees in Sosua

[pedrochemical]

I want to see the spin on this one.

Don't hold your breath.
He is like a little puppy sitting next to a pile of poop.

So go ahead and say it Pedro, we are all picking on the Haitians because they are black and we are all bigots..We have all heard this from you before.

Could you remind me in which post I wrote that?
And do not insult me without expecting a response.


My two main points are this;

1. It is not humane to round up people and deport them.
2. It is not practical to round up people and deport them.

Would you like me to explain why?

Topic of discussion....HAITIANS in SOSUA!!!!!!

In my book, if you have a choice and decide to break the rules you are more culpable than if you have no choice - I do not see your logic here. This reminds me, I must get my tourist card updated. Maybe a quick jaunt to Cuba or Puerto Rico for some R&R would be better....hmmm....




Then why the comment about being Haitian - please explain.

Because HAITIANS are the topic of discussion here, not Dominicans, Americans or expats from where ever........and like I said before I am not predigest, I am calling things as I see them...and as they really are!
Go back 2 posts....seems there are others that are on the same page, why aren't you?????
Ya, Cuba or PR, both good choices for R&R....personally I like Vieques. No drama or bulls***

So again, why must I be Haitian?
I do not understand what you meant.

And yes, actually, the discussion is entirely about tourists, expats and Haitians.

Just don't get it....

Yes, and it would be nice to know what country you reside from.....do they let anybody in that wants to stay with no papers??? hummm could be the NEW PARIDISE....

Fact is any tourist town in the DR where Haitian refugees choose to populate in large numbers will die an economic death.

If it is true that Sosua is becoming populated by laggre numbers of poor Haitian refugees, I feel sorry for people who invested their hard-earned money in property and businesses there.

Yes I do; you called Pedro ignorant, no lifer, you derided his citizenship etc. There's no need to use Ad Hominen attacks or Red Herrings, stick to the issues and let's have a meaningful debate.

This thread is about to overstay its residency and be deported.

If the shoe fits....wear it.

Show me where I called him ignorant, and deriding his citizenship?? I don't even know what country he's from!....and it really doesn't make a difference. Ask a stupid question...get a stupid answer.
I don't care what color or where there from, they don't belong there, period.

I don't think the Haitian community in Sosua is exactly thrilled about the influx of refugees either. There will be problems, and when the PN shows up one day, it's very likely some of the Haitians who have worked to get a business off the ground will be rounded up as well. The issue has to be address now. The longer it takes to address it, the more likely it will take force to resolve it. Offering a carrot now is better than a stick later.

Closed. Maybe the issue can be discussed without personal attacks, but obviously not here, today.
