Thanks for posting this...

I'm a lot more familiar with Kingston having lived there off and on for 5 years, it's a dangerous place. Stuff goes on there that you couldn't even imagine. Some of that mentality and culture will eventually spill over into Negril as people move around, travel through, looking for a better/easier way to make a living or even get food to eat for the day.

Negril is a tourist haven and is seen as a place where for the most part rich whiteys come to party. Most locals can't even imagine having the money it would cost to fly in, stay at the hotel, eat and drink what ever you want, like we can. We are so fortunate be able to come visit and enjoy ourselves. The police take it very seriously when something happens to a tourist. Good hard working Jamaicans are sickened by what they see the "yout" doing. I'm so sorry that this happened to you Kahuna but as you say your "spidy senses, were tingling before the robbery. Thank goodness you were ok and Bea was not there. I hope you will both want to return in time.
