Two- Month Record Broken?
Hmm, and just a few days ago CESTUR proudly announced:
Comandante del CESTUR informa que en los ?ltimos dos meses no ha sido atracado ning?n turista
But wait, as from the articles it is not clear whether the victim is a tourist or a resident, CESTUR may even be right... :cross-eye

It proves over and over again that it is safer to speak spanish moderately well and it will get you out of many problems ..be it in the north or anywhere else.. Actually I live in fear of these guys on motor conchos who park on corners so as to impede traffic
There has to be more too it... Such as the drunk guy had a run in with the motoconcho guys before and was a jerk to them. Some of the guys who come here for the chicas treat the locals poorly. One thing I have learned is that you treat everyone with a degree of respect weather they deserve it or not. Late night drunk arguments always end up bad and nothing good happens after midnight...
of course its not an excuse, but its certainly more prudent to hold your tongue than to tell a motoconcho to f off....even if they deserve it.
Whether that was the case here or not, we don't know

They kind of unsettle me too - where our road meets the beach, there are always a bunch of motoconchos because the bus from SD & San Cristobal stops there. Sometimes they block the entire road. If I'm driving, I approach slowly and they move out of the way, I lift a hand in thanks, when I'd love to run them all over. If Mr. AE is driving [normal - I only drive when I'm alone going for the fruit/veg stand] he gets angry and used to open the window and yell at them for blocking the way. I've convinced him it's safer to shut up and give a little beep, he does it now but it goes against his grain. We have a car that is unique in model and color, everyone knows us, and we live just down the road a little, and I wouldn't put it past some of them to do something just because Mr. AE ****ed them off.
Mr. AE's Equipment
Well, if Mr.AE wears a heavy gold chain and got a Glock stuck in his belt I would not worry much about the concho monkeys... :cheeky:

They are targets for hungry criminals who have nothing to lose! If they get caught, they can pay their way out today or in the future anyway. The police do not care about violent attacks against Gringos. Most are too uneducated to understand that negative impact these events have on their reputation and economy. Most middle class I speak to here don't even vote because they feel nothing will change and the candidates are corrupt thieves! Very sad situation for such a beautiful area!
Threshold Sum
If the criminals got away - with let's say more than 1,000 USD - they might lift their behinds.... :cheeky:
otherwise they could not care less.
Reputation???????
Hahahaha... :classic:

Depends.

Too many expats here are so eager to call the locals monkeys and such... Telling them to fk off and blow up with road rage and such at every little annoyance. This attitude and behavior is bad and leads to animosity on both sides...
Ever wonder what happens to worn out machietes. Dominincans are not ones to throw away anything. The worn out machetes are ground down into knives and are carried by every tigre, street criminal and motoconcho who cannot afford to buy an illegal gun. If you were a motoconcho you would not carry a knife? Its a dangerous occupation. N ot to blame the victim prematurely but P. C. at 1:30 am you have to wonder if alcohol clouded his judgment.
