Hi !
If you read properly my posts, i did mention That Mrs. Gaynair had give a compensation.
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.
[QUOTE=Rob;19548]Christine,
You state that you didnt want to mention your boyfriend because you thought others might want to suggest that he may have a role to play because he is Jamaican, and that is not fair as you say "they are not all bad." Yet you suggest that the Jamaican security, Jamaican staff, Jamaican management and Jamaican owners may be to blame. It is a bit hard to believe that you didnt want people to think all Jamaicans are bad when you turn around and blame many Jamaicans instead of presenting the real facts of the situation and allowing the readers to make a truly informed decision.
Rob,
As i wrote down this am, it was not a PARTY, it was a simple dinner. For me a party and a dinner are different. So please don't mess my words.
You mentionned ''Yet you suggest that the Jamaican security, Jamaican staff, Jamaican management and Jamaican owners may be to blame''. What i wrote is that i had DOUBTS about the JAMAICAN MANAGEMENT and not all the people you mention such has Jamaican staff, i never mentionned those people. I did also write down that Mrs. Gaynair has been cool when we chatted together. So what i mean is yes there are not all bad people in Jamaica it's like any people in the world. Good people and bad people. That was my meaning.
Don't mess up with my words.
So the basic fact is that i've been robbed, i will never know from who. The other fact is that an hotel has to have doors secured lock on them before renting a room.
You see, you make me feel as i am the bad person and i'm the victim here.
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.
Please re-read, I was talking about the Gigolos....just because you sell your body doesn't mean you're stupid. Actually, not all thieves are stupid either....some are smart and make a damn good living from it - not that I condone it but would you consider Bernie Madoff stupid?
Are you the same person that came on this site and talkie about an incident you had at Mirage?

Our group (3) of us stayed in 2 ground floor rooms on the property during the same time that Christine was there & we were aware that the patio door in our room had a broken lock, as it did in Dec. last year when we stayed there. Knowing that, we still did not feel unsafe at the property. It had a wooden stick & a chain lock on it. I do feel that the locks are in need of repair, but I was aware of that when we booked our rooms there. We saw Christine & her friend several times during our stay & they pretty much kept to themselves. I am sorry that this happened to her, but not telling all the facts of the situation does present a problem in hurting the reputation of the property. When you pay such a low price for a room, you have to know that you get what you pay for. The rooms do need some repairs, but then again, if you have stayed there before, you should be aware of that & take the necessary precautions. We have stayed there 3 different times & will do so again. I am sorry Christine that you were a victim & hope you will return to Negril in the future. Maybe next time try a different property, but be more aware of your surroundings. I do believe this is the reason why so many properties in Negril will not let you have overnight guests in your room. Just my 2 cents worth.
Getting Old Isn't For Sissy's!!
i would Bernie Madoff is VERY stupid -- he could have been a millionaire but instead stole billions and now he is in prison for Life .... what part of that is smart? lol
His downfall was greed, not stupidity. Again, I do not condone Im just sayin.
Just a pont of clairification on this topic. When I see a claim of robbery, it gets my attention big time!!! A robbery by definition, involves violence or threat thereof. Burglaries, on the other hand, involve breaking and entering a building to commit a crime such as theft.
Burgalries are certainly a serious offence, especially the home invasion type when occupied. In no way am I saying this alleged incident was trivial. However a robbery, by it's very nature is much more serious.
