Yip! More PN and MP than anyone else. Maybe it is a good thing, but if they did this in a tourist area then the tourists would leave. I've been here quite a while and I still find it more worrying than reassuring. Makes me wonder if I ever really knew how bad things were.
There is a lot of violent crime, but it really does feel like driving through a war zone, or at least a significant security concern. Every street and street corner has a couple of little dudes with automatic weapons. And every colmado has a sleeping PN with his feet up on his motorbike. The UK has a different meaning of 'sleeping policeman'.
It is significant enough that I am looking for work elsewhere these days. People don't move to the Caribbean to live around this kind of thing, that is stupid. Not sure where in the country is better right now, seems to be issues all over the place.
