Yep they sound like naive liberals.

They think they can sue an entire village of people for the crime committed? I can’t believe this.

Yes I’m sure they will learn that 3rd world justice isn’t in the same place as American justice.

I sure wonder what the collective net worth of the villagers is whom they hope to sue. I wonder how much in damages they could really collect.

Naive is right!!

Belize is an English speaking Commonwealth country. They would file a suit under statutory law, or under English Common Law which is the basis of Belize’s legal system.

Belize is not your average Central American country.
