Those idiots who think they own the roads. The ones who drive up the wrong way on a one way street and give you a dirty look if they have to move over for you. The ones who park real close to you hoping that you will back into them so they can claim a few thousand pesos for dammages. The ones who sell drugs or transport the drug dealers. The ones who drive down the street and steal the purses from tourists. The ones who help thieves make their getaway. The ones who drive down the highway at night with no lights; front or rear. The ones who cut off the people trying to cross the streets. The ones who take up all the parking spots. (2 bikes take up the place for 3 cars). Continued tomorrow night. I'm going to sleep. That's if they quit screaming and making noise.

major announcement !!! Kyle is always poking fun at people and situations !!!!!!!
What bugs me about the conchos is that they'll sit outside my hotel and start whistling non-stop at 8:00 a.m. in the morning. And, holy fishsticks, I'm just getting back from "Capairinias" (spelling?) from an all-nighter. So I just pop the earplugs in and it drowns out most of the noise.
I got a couple of conchos that shadow me all over town. It's like I got to peek around the corner to make sure the coast is clear so they don't come up and hit me for a free cigarette, drink, or pesos.
Oh, and did I mention the chickens that start crowing at 4:00 a.m. in the morning. Only in the Dominican you'll hear chickens crowing -- in town!!!!
I don't now what the national bird of the Dominican is , but I nominate the chicken....:chinese::chinese::chinese:
Excuse me for not being more specific, but a rooster is also a chicken, right?
I've lived in the country practically all my life, so I know which chickens crow and which don't......

The Reality of the Current Police Action In Sosua
Here is the problem with the "Politur" who have descended upon Sos?a in this latest police action. They station themselves at certain spots along Pedro Clisante and are in groups of two or three at each spot or corner. At times there are more than 12 stationed along this small section of Pedro Clisante. The "average" tourist walking down the street does not have the first impression of "hey this area has good security and I feel safer here". Their first impression is "what the hell is going on here that they need groups of police at every corner for a 70 meter stretch of street?" I have had quite a few tourists ask me this since this police action started.
It does not convery a feeling of safety. It actually causes apprehension as if something dangerous is happening to warrant so many police in a small area. Also, anyone observing their actions can see they are doing nothing more than questioning and detaining unescorted girls they deem to be prostitutes. And while they are so concerned with these women, they allow motoconchos to drive in the opposite direction of traffic. They allow vehicles to stop for an inordinate amount of time on the left side of the street causing traffic stoppage. They allow many people to walk along this same street they are supposed to be making safer, with guns blatantly displayed tucked into their waistband with the grip and the end of the clip sticking out. They allow groups of five to ten guys, who's presence is definitely intimidating to tourists, to congregate together in front of the discos blocking the sidewalk. I can go on but I won't. The point being they were sent there for one primary purpose and unfortunately the concern and safety of tourists isn't it. And the image they are projecting is not one of calm security but of pending tension and apprehension.
Unfortunately this is now a daily routine and realistically not helping the image of Sos?a in the eyes of the tourists who actually have to witness this pathetic bulls##t.
If anyone is under the illusion that this police action will actually "clean-up" and improve Sos?a, it shows only one thing, YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON. Sure they are successfull at detaining and scaring away plenty of "working girls", so what?? The girls who come here from other towns such as Santiago, La Vega, Moca, Santo Domingo, etc. will stop coming here. Great, mission accomplished. Now what? Well I'll tell you now what...now they are creating a town where only the most desperate "working girls" will dare venture out. And who might they be? The drug addicts and theives, and the ones whose drug addicted theiving pimps are lurking the streets waiting for them to earn money. Now they can't earn money selling sex, so many will turn to blatant theivery. It has already started and is getting worse. Fortunately most people haven't witnessed it, but believe me, it's happening.
If the "powers that be" actually believe they are improving Sos?a they are in for a big surprise. They are forcing many people into desparate situations and the outcome might not be what they expected. Hopefully they will see the folly of their ways before the situation gets out of hand.

This comes as news to me. I am not out at night, but I do walk a good stretch of Pedro Clisante once or twice every day and I rarely see police, except maybe one walking in the opposite direction.

I'd like to see a "town hall" type meeting, open to the general public, with the mayor and her cabinet ready to field questions from the audience....I'd like to know the real intentions of the current administration.....democracy in action, if you will......

Hate to be a PRICK............but I'm LEGLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like the ones that wiggle their way to the front of the line at a red light, to park in front of everyone else, and then when the light turns green they haven't got enough power to get out of their own way.
