Even though I feel that if you are illegal here (expired visa-border crosser, whatever) you should be deported or have to get the legal documents.

I do feel bad when I see the people mover trucks loaded with humans. Arms hanging out of the cages. Packed full of everyday people. It brings tears to my eyes. I give them the prayer, head bowled signal when they pass by. But, it should be done, in my opinion.
All credit to the Dominican government. They can learn something from that here in Europe. In that respect, they do not have the courage to identify and tackle the problems here.

You should stick to destroying the environment.

I could not care less about you opinion. The fact is they beat the tar out of her. I saw it. It was ugly. You’re fortunate, privileged even and have no appreciation of what goes on amongst the poor and oppressed.
RystyT, this same poster repeatedly called me a liar when I told of a black friend of mine, who is Dominican, complete with cedula, who was locked up several times, although I am pleased to say she was not beaten up or raped. My response to him was much the same - you have no idea what goes on in the real DR, being more interested in "fine dining".

Totally bogus story. You should be a soap opra writer

Stick to your hors d'oeuvres and strippers please, how can you possibly say that a woman that you have never met lied about being raped and beaten up. I know the idea that women can be abused, raped, sex trafficked etc doesn't suit your narrative, but trust me this stuff happens way too frequently.

I wonder if they are going to go to the Chinese hardware shops on Duarte con Ovando (in the capital) those places are 100% full of Haitian workers. You could probably fill up a couple of trucks in one of those shops alone.

I also wonder if they will go for Vicini's cane cutters. I'm sure they'll dream up an exemption for staff working for rich families.

You being a "man hater" does not make this story true.

Indeed.
This is a problem in many of these undocumented Haitian communities along the north coast (Sosua being ground zero) and yet another reason I fully support their removal.

You two should get together and produce a soap opera. I will not watch as I enjoy the Discovery channel, The science channel and 90-day fiancé.

If only you knew how far from the truth that is. If ever a girl loved men it was me. I do however think it would be reasonably easy to hate the types of men who think that women are there to be bought, that prostitutes love their work and are never trafficked, that any woman who says she was raped must obviously be lying, and so on and so on.

I don't disagree with their removal. But this has to be more than cosmetic if they are going to do it. No allowing the resorts and the construction companies to employ armies of Haitians because they are owned by someone important. And it has to be done humanely, any police accepting bribes to let people go free should be locked up, no question.

I never ever said any woman was lying. I said the story was a tall tale.

So when you said "totally bogus story" you were basically saying that she was actually telling the truth?
The story was fiction, similar to the "Saw" movie series. In reference to the girls that work at the gentleman's clubs, I have never seen bars on the windows of the clubs or chains on their ankles. On the contrary. I have seen them shopping in the city and at the supermarket. It does pain many that woman can make significant money with little talent and just being attractive, friendly and entertaining. I know it bothers you however not all can be chemical engineers, nurses and business owners.
