I Cant believe the amount of pistols I saw
I was amazed to see how many people in the DR pack heat. I took one of those orange colored taxis from Sosua heading to Sabaneta one evening, and by the time we reached near LAX bar in Caberette, there was a terrible trafic jam because some idiot double parked. All of the drivers were now forced to squeeze thru this tiny little space, so as murphys law would have it one impatient driver rubbed his bumber against another car that was facing the opposite direction. Both drivers stepped out of their cars and began arguying over whose at fault, next thing you know they both whipped out their pistols and began menacing each other. Being a former New Yorker and back seat passenger I immediately ducked. My cab driver thought my reaction was very amusing, so after a 5 minute laugh at my expense he reached under his driver seat, pulled out this big shiny piece and commented that as long as both of them are armed , no one will get hurt. I nearly passed the f**k out, since then I seemed to notice everyone that packed a pistol.
