Aruba is a lawless island transit point for Columbian drug cartels -

Now the world sees what "justice" outside of the USA is really like -

The message from this should be: Parents, do not send your high-school-senior daughters to ANY such lawless, foreign locations.

The locals in these tourist traps are trolling for victims and suckers.

We were surprised at how naive all of those parents were - and from what I have seen on FNC and CNN - who naive all of those Alabama grads and the parents and the seven adult "chaperones" still are.

I grew up in South Florida and was always aware of what tourist areas attracted and acted accordingly.

Fort Lauderdale was always an oasis for con men, hookers, drug dealers, gamblers, scam artists, pickpockets, counterfeiters, car accident insurance tricksters, crooked bar/club owners, etc.

The US Navy and foreign navy ships docked at Port Everglades and those randy just paid sailors and submariners were a big target of local scammers and also tough guys to annoy in a club at 1am.

But we were forewarned and forearmed and negotiated the area without becoming victims as the snowbird tourists were.

We even survived all of those Yankee tourist girls; many of who decide to stay after a few days there and moved there permanently instead of vacationing there a week or two every year. Nothing as dangerous as a tall slim tanned young blonde on the beach - or at closing time. It was really very hard to take for young locals but we survived them too; but enough war stories.

We had gators, rattlers, coral snakes, water mocs, sharks, cudas, scorpions, panthers, and Porky's (Porky Baines) Hideaway to encounter. But then we never faced the scumbags of chadgate back then.

The ignorance of the adult chaperones and the parents of all the Americans that go to foreign distant or even close places like Aruba is incredible.

Jamaica and the Virgin Islands have some dangerous histories too; because a spot is beautiful and seemingly friendly foreign tourists seem to believe it is a safe paradise out of an old movie.

They in fact sent their youngsters into the jungle without snake-boots and defensive weapons - and still more are doing it.

Finally Americans are realizing that the dangers are real and that the law enforcement and justice systems are also part of the danger and corruption. - The hungry sharks in the shallow waters.

The most insidious part.

The deadly part.
