Robin & Rosalie, I am with you 100%. This is the same mentality that has/had people fleeing North American cities at the slightest hint of crime. I live in Philly and If I left because of a rash of shootings, I would have been gone 15 years ago. Telling visitors to stay away from Negril will do nothing but harm the good people of the town. Quite the opposite, having more people out and about will make the town safer.

I, for one, am looking forward to my trip this fall.
