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.”

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

If the $ would stay in the country they would have normal level society.
The resorts take all the $ they make out of the country. And the resort workers work 6 12hr days for about $90.00/week
