The onces with the uniforms are the biggest part of the criminals here. Justice happens in the courtroom, not on the street.
Werner I'm with you. Behavior like this by the authorities(private or public) gets us closer to countries like Somalia. The problems of criminality can be complex, but pulling a trigger in this situation does nothing for justice.Werner said:OK, but over 2 packs of sigaretes?
Sorry but I cant call that justice. So, it might be fast but better in no way. I think that every normal thinking person can come to that conclusion.

Hipocrito Mejia said:The problem is that the same kid that was stealing those cigarretes was or would have eventually been snatching jewelry, purses, cell phones, etc. They start small and eventually graduate to holding up people and businesses, and then more violent crimes.
The sad reality is that right now, the best justice in DR is street justice.
