Yes Dominicans hate Americans so much they risk life, limb and jail limb on a daily basis to make it there. They also hate it so much they NEVER buy products from nuevayol - yea right.
Nice try Chavez.
Not Chavez, Calrisian! 
Come on Chip your funny man. Who wouldn't love a place where the electricity is always functioning, the water never runs out and is warm, where the police and the justice system are usually not for sale and blah, blah, blah....
So all we are saying is give peas a chance. U.S. foreign policy mostly stinks.
That's all.

Wow! I have seen everything now on this forum (lol). This guy sales yesterdays news paper from the planes that land at POP. He gets them form the cleaning personal with sections missing in them. He as been doing this for more then 12 years. So go from there and consider the source.
Surely you're not speaking of the Nueva Yol where I was born and raised. Where a gold shield represents a promotion to Bag Man, 1st class. Puh-lease! Why do you think NY has the greatest concentration of Dominicans off of the island of Hispa_ola? The "justice system" and police force operate to the standards they're used to.
The entire U.S. needs an intervention. We've been hooked on arrogance since the Monroe doctrine. All I hear is "best country on Earth". Best at what? Not standard of living, income education, health, longevity, infrastructure.......what?!? Attitude? Pffft!
They don't "hate us for our freedom" that's for sure. It seems we've spent a little time overstepping our borders....
Monroe Doctrine
Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine

Well maybe while they are home....
in line.
But my unscientific experience in AI's puts many Europeans (not all) at the head of the class when it comes to being pushy or rude.
Does that mean everyone is that way?...surely not. So to the original OP, everyone has a bad day, accept it and move on.
Just one question though...why does it seem these types of threads seem to almost always descend into an Anti-American rant?

3. Loud/Pushy - they perceive Americans to be pushy or rude - especially in Europe. A distinct difference to European culture where everyone waits in line, and just takes it up the ass when they're getting screwed by government/police/authority - whereas Americans stand up for themselves - and this confidence is seen as being 'cowboy' and 'pushy' and 'loud'.

Don't get me wrong. There's nothing "anti-American" in my rant. I have spent my entire life in the public service sector and no one is more "pro-America" than I. It's the people who go to other countries and fail to properly represent us that I have the problem with. Undisciplined youngsters (and some oldsters) who get off the plane acting like a bunch of sailors on shore leave make me sick.
It would be nice to see my countrymen (and women) acting with dignity when abroad, taking the effort to learn a little about the culture and standards for behavior in their host countries.
I'd also like to see foreign policy which doesn't assume our right to interfere with the lives and Human rights of our neighbors. If they want to follow failed policy, let them. Why should we feel that it's our business to tell others how to live?
Nope. I'm not "anti-American". I'm "anti-ugly-American".
Nutcase??????
I was talking about Haitians, not Dominicans.....I was making a comparison of the two, being that they are neighbors. Typo error...POP should have been PAP. Sorry if I offended you.
Could have swore I made mention of a Haitian working at a Dominican hotel.
Hummm

Ok your no longer certified then.
However, you should know the animosity many Haitians have for foreigners is not something American started, it was something that started when they got their independence and has been promoted by the government in order for the people to have someone to blame other than their leaders.
this is just great
on my trip to the dr next week i have to worry about the normal things: ladrones, thieves, bad pizza, bad water, disentary, a pregnant dominicana, etc. now because of this thread i'll also worry about bumping into self-loathing democrats and bomb carrying jihadists. this is just great!!

What a bunch of psychobabble.
Mason3000 hit it on the head -
The American who told you this story DIDN'T BUY A NEWSPAPER.
The guys just out trying to scrape out a living and the potential customer couldn't or didn't help him out. And $100 pesos says the guy who explained this scenario to you doesn't speak more than 10 words in Spanish. You turn a simple gesture into a big conspiracy. Give it a rest.

Dominicans hate Americans because...
of all the ignorant things Americans say about Dominicans and other cultures. I hear some of the comments about Dominicans in this forum and I don't recognize myself. I think, where the heck do these people go? I mean, when I am in DR visiting family, I don't experience much difference, except of course for the stuff that we all know: electricity goes out sometimes, driving is crazy, etc. But I see my family taking their kids to soccer games, piano lessons, karate lessons, planning their vacations, trying to choose schools for their kids, taking them to the orthodontist, the movies ... and on and on about normal life. I read the comments in this forum and is about people hanging out in colmados and people being poor, riding in motoconchos, etc. well, what do you expect if that's where you hang out for crying out loud. Then you go back to the US and that's the only Dominican Republic you all know. Have you all gone to the seedy neighborhoods of the big cities of the US by the pawn shops? Stood around some of the intercity schools and seen those kids come out? It's a scary sight! But I know that's not all there is. Try to befriend some of those families and experience that side of Dominican life also.

They only hate the "Ugly" ones. Wanna find out who your friends are? It's easy. Run out of money.
You appear to be a tourist; I'm not however. I live here in Santiago and don't give my money to people unless it's at church or some beggar.
"appear"?
I headquarter in Washington DC. I am no tourist. I didn't say "give" your money away, I said "run out of money". Big difference. It brings out the best and the worst in people almost like x-ray vision into their souls. There's no differences in people anywhere I've been in the World and that covers an awful lot of ground.
Just like we're having the conversation of "why would a Dominican hate U.S. People?" I'm sure that there's a group of Dominicans somewhere having a discussion "Why would a U.S. Person disrespect us?".
