PSA: Jamica declares state of Emergency after violence erupts

For those of you who are thinking of going there on Vacation or on your Honeymoon
British and Canadian tourists were warned to stay inside their Montego Bay resorts in Jamaica after a spate of violence led officials there to deploy soldiers and declare a state of emergency.
The British government on Thursday advised its citizens visiting the tropical island that they should “limit movements” outside of resorts and exercise caution if traveling at night.
Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness said in a statement that extra steps were needed to “bring the parish of St. James under control and restore public safety.”
“Violent crime, such as home invasions, armed robberies, and homicide, is common. Sexual assaults occur frequently, even at all-inclusive resorts. Local police lack the resources to respond effectively to serious criminal incidents.”

I've heard Jamaica has been on the decline for a while.

Always disliked Jamaica. Pristine resorts shielded from terrible poverty.

I heard that, out in the streets, they call it murder.

Jamaica should look into hiring some Blackwater baws as mercenaries. They'd clean that shite up real fast.

We'll be at Beaches Resort in Negril in June of 2019. That gives them a year and a half to get this shite under control. Will be the first time going to Jamaica.

Everyone I know that has been to Jamaica said it was a shithole, even compared to Mexico. That’s saying something
