Negril Beach Club Condo - Be aware !!

[CarrieBean]

Carrie,

In no way am I blaming the victim for what happened. Please re-read my comment. I am simply pointing out the realities that happen when someone makes a post claiming to be a warning to others of a problem and then they leave out key details. When these key details come to light, it can raise credibility issues in the readers minds. That is simply human nature. And this loss of credibility can alter the perceptions as to why the post was made in the first place.

I know that you went through a robbery as we were both with you after it occurred. Being robbed sucks bigtime - but adding more innocent victims to the situation by insinuating the security, staff, management and owners had something to do with it without any proof and leaving out key details that do point to other equally plausible explanations is not fair to anyone. Your situation was a completely different scenario than Chrstine's.

As for mentioning the Jamaican security, staff, etc. I did so since Christine explained the reason she didnt want to mention her boyfriend staying in the room was so no one would blame him since he was Jamaican. It does seem odd that in order not to have him blamed since he was a Jamaican that she would blame many other Jamaicans instead. This can also lead to a blow to her credibility which again can make some readers view her original post something more than a genuine warning for others.

I'm sure you can understand why it would strike a nerve with me.

I suppose it depends on how you look at it. You see it as blaming other Jamaicans. I see it as blaming Staff. The staff could have been any nationality. I don't know who works there. I've never met Jean, and like I said I have heard nothing but good about her, but it sounds like she needs to fix her locks and security. Maybe this is a good thing in that she'll realize she needs to do that.

It was Christine that brought up the point about not wanting a Jamaican to be blamed...but then turned around & blamed staff and owners that are Jamaican!! I read contradiction...which leads to a credibility issue...which has obviously happened to many readers & posters in this thread.

My point was that when you're in Jamaica, there's a good chance the staff will be Jamaican. Like I said, some will always pick at anything to blame the victim.
