Robbery
Foregive me in advance, because I am sure you will be able to detect the anger in my following words.
I know some people feel like they are safe in Jamaica. I am one person who understands that if it hasn't happen to you, you feel like it couldn't. That is how I use to feel.
I only posted this information about the robbery, for people who understand that it can happen to them.
If you had a great time in Jamiaca and feel ike it is a safe place, then continue to go there.
For all of you that say that it can happen anywhere and look at the USA and our crime, atleast I am familiar with the areas where I live. In Jamaica, unless who have been there several times (100 plus times), I don't see how you would know where the safe areas are. Also, for those of you who say this happens in the states, please tell me where a group of tourist were held up at gunpoint in the country side of the USA. I am curious, because I have never heard of a group of tourist being held up at gunpoint in any American State.
I have had more responses from people who have been uneasy in Jamaica than people who felt safe.
If you are a hard core tourist, who love adventure and don't mind placing yourself in danger, then go to Jamiaca.
If you are just a vacationer, who enjoys spending vaction time with family and friends in a safe atmosphere, stay out of Jamaica.
This post is to let people know about our life changing experience, and if it prevents one person from going to Jamiaca and being victimized then it is well worth it.
