Is anyone paying any attention to what is going on in Aruba at the present. Do you wonder why our media is not showing us this, it is being shown on a local television station in Aruba.

Anti-US Media Demonstration?

Or are yall rehashing the rehashed rehashed.

Is there an official protesting that is actually going on? I read that is MIGHT happen but haven't seen anything sense. Do you have any updates?

This is really sad. There is a missing girl and we have people pointing fingers, people protesting, etc. Sad Sad SAD.

This 5:00 demonstration will be remembered as Aruba's "Baghdad Bob" moment.

________________________________________________________

There are about 50 people, more or less ten signs, 6 cops.

At least when I passed by.

I can ASSURE you, that it's not the government tell us this. It's Nancy, Bill and Geraldo. TRUST ME ON THIS.

Actually, I wondered this very thing when you(?) first posted today.

Yesterday, I wondered why FNC wasn't showing us the media/theirs & ours, arguing at the court house.

Geraldo was in the midst of it, too.

Anti-US demonstrations are the last thing this island needs. Demonstrations will kill the tourist trade for a very long time. Some reporters have said cancellations are flooding in, that the tourist trade is hemmoraghing. Other say, with a big bright phony smile, that everything's fine and hotels are all booked up! (Highly unlikely.)

The anti-US media demonstrations are an attempt to get our media to cover their demonstration. I hope Greta covers it, because it'll backfire on them.

Fox just showed the demonstration. They said about 50 protesters. One man was saying the Americans are in their country not New Jersey or Alabama etc. They had signs, I didn't see what any of them said. It was only about a 20 second film.
