We finally found a good use for ‘Kale’.............

Two sides of the same island. What could be the difference??

I’ve read that the Dominican Republic is building a wall between the countries. But...don’t they know... walls don’t work! LOL

Haitians should have learned how to play baseball.

They have had a tall fence for 50 years or more. With armed guards that will shoot people IF they try to cross into the DR.

Was part of Operation Uphold Democracy in 1995 in Haiti.

The country was an ungovernable hell-hole then. It has the natural resources and geographic advantages to be far more prosperous than the neighboring Dominican Republic but stands as a constant reminder that corruption destroys everything. And Haiti is a nation that has institutionalized and perfected corruption in every facet of life.

It is in far worse shape now.

Unfortunately we gave Papa Doc carte blanche to keep the Cubans and Soviets out of Haiti.

The giant earthquake and numerous hurricanes don’t help either.............

Horrific scenes over the last few months have seen fighting on the streets as gangs clash with the vigilantes - with some of the criminals even being butchered, lynched and burned.

I refuse to call them vigilantes.

They are citizens taking back their streets and lives because the police and government refuse to do anything to protect them.

If there were legitimate police activity and a just justice system, then groups of people taking the law into their own hands could be considered vigilante justice. But these people are simply defending themselves.

Escape from Haiti and DO NOT send Snake Plissken.

The human rights NGO also recorded a “drastic reduction” in gang-linked murders following Bwa Kale’s extrajudicial killings - 43 in May, down from 146 in the first three weeks of April. "Without making a value judgement, the 'Bwa Kale' movement has in just one month produced convincing, visible results; fear has changed sides," CARDH said.

Which goes to show that if you give back to bullies what they themselves dish out, they will back down.

All Haiti needs is democracy and more democracy.
And trillions of US dollars. And white people to go over
there and clean up the damn place and show the Haitians
they can live just like white people.

Haitians, millions of naivé and gullible white leftist Americans
are anxious to serve you and lead you to the promised land!
Democracy and dollars for All!

It’s a hell hole. One branch of my family tree, operated as a silversmith there. When the revolution hit the family got on the first boat they could. Went to Philadelphia. They thrived there until the Depression of the late 1870’s. A couple pieces of their work are still on display at the Phila Art Museum.

The sight of machete-hacked-up-bodies burning in the streets will put the Fear of God into you.....................

[metmom]

They got what they asked for....

[metmom]

So they were OK with gang violence but not vigilante violence.

Yup, looks that way.

And the poor bloodthirsty gangs are now getting their comeuppance and the MSM is whining about what victims they are.

“We occupied Haiti before, we may have to do it again.”

Why? What does it have to do with us?

[dfwgator]

Potentially hundreds of thousands of refugees coming to the US, if the situation doesn’t get under control.

[aquila48]

“The UN reports that there are barely 3,500 “overstretched, underequipped and outnumbered” police officers on patrol across the island nation.”

I guess defunding the police doesn’t work as we as predicted.

[Celerity]

When the US finally goes kinetic in its civil war, the media will portray us as this.

Think of taking to the streets and identifying and eliminating those who simply need to be erased.
