In my opinion the only person really qualified to answer this original post is... First a Jamaican, Second one who "works" the streets and beach asking for handouts....we as tourists can ONLY think we know the real answer..........

I look at it as......"I will beg before I steal, and would only Kill long after I have been stealing"....as one poster put it, we cant really KNOW the lives these people go through....

Actually the original post is not a very nice statement.......
