Not making light of the advisory, but seriously how many times do you think over the years that same "advisory" has been issued? Have to ask is that for Kingston, Montego Bay, Sav, Negril, Green Island, Port Antonio, or the usual broad brush entire island of Jamaica?

I am so sorry for the pain and suffering for the Winnipeg couple you refer to and the young lady who was a resident whom recently lost her life on Lime Tree Lane. That's for real and definitely a reality check for all. But even here at home in our small town if a car I don't know is parked with a couple of guys with doors and trunk open , sorry but thats my cue to walk wide around or head to to other side of street way before I get up on it. Does that make it right, hell no, pisses me off just reading about it.

But the common sense and precaution advice is spot on. 18 years now with multiple trips each year and no issues, caution, common sense, pretty much the same way I am here at home and still alive and can't wait to go back again. This is my experience, opinion only.
