I hope it WAS one of those Hells Angels losers, they are constantly screaming around on those loud motorcycles begging for attention. My sympathy would not be for the Dominican thief but for the Hells Azzhole. The Dominican thief can handle himself and undoubtedly has a better network of gangsters than some pot bellied washed up biker dic

Local police know who does what in these communities. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.
With such high paying salaries, they often live in the same neighborhoods as these criminals. People
have to eat and everyone feels they are entitled to a piece of the pie.

i have no idea why these medievals at the media outlets believe we cannot read the articles without the presence of the bachate in the foreground.

this is a sister site of a radio station in POP, hence the music.

If that's the case, the cockroaches are eating the silverfish. How perfect is that.

Here is the Difference though..
One of them Bikers hits you, he wont leave you bleeding out in the middle of the Street, in fact he will go back to Cabarete, get $5,000 cash faster than you could ever get it from your own Bank, and make sure the Doctors stitch you up, and save your life, especially if its HIS fault..

The Dominican, will drive off, and maybe pick your pockets just before he does , while you take your last breath..

and that aint fantasy.. that there is REAL talk..
so them "pot bellied washed up Bikers" , they kinda get a PASS, in my book..

sorry if this is in any way off topic..

The article says in August they were robbed on the Malecon. I don't carry much on me when i walk around the malecon or city. Just enough for beer and food, and hide my ride back to the hotel money in a secret pocket. :cool:

Purse snatching

an old trick , long forgotten in NYC - where it was rampant for a while.

My daughter has had her purse Invaded (not snatched) in Rome & NYC
It happens everywhere........

Ever notice how many women wear their purse under their jackets ?

If this is true: "los despojan de cadena de oro", then in my opinion it was equally their own fault. They were either inexperienced as tourists/travelers or just did not think too much...

You don?t wear any fancy stuff in a 3rd world country nor will you try to be the center of attention. That?s one of the most basic rules of traveling.

It?s not right to get robbed, but as with any risks, you have to play along in managing them.

Not true anymore because of the new laws back home. Many of the foreign HA here do not wear their colours while riding....the Santo Domingo Chapter have to.
