I dont understand why you need the qualifier “black”. It makes no sense in the context of a black nation. Everybody is black. It adds as much information as me saying, “ a person with two arms and one nose is being held hostage”.


I could understand if you were making distinction between the haitians on the island and FBA/ADOS, but this was a Haitian couple (based on their names) being held up by fellow Haitians. So once again, the qualifier “black” doesnt mean anything.
there are at least 10 threads a day with race in the title

now yall sensitive about it :martin:

Christie said the couple, from Tamarac, went to Haiti to visit family and to attend a festival but were kidnapped on their bus ride from Port-au-Prince.

“They stopped the bus at a stop and then asked for Americans to get off the bus and their escorts off the bus, and then they took them,” she said.

Wonder how did they know that the couple was there.

I meant who "snitched" on the couple's location, the bandits didn't just happen to look at the bus and realize there were Americans there.
:francis: This is likely. My mother has no interest of visiting ever and that's one of the reasons. She think there's folk that don't like her or are jealous enough to drop a dime on her if they found out she was making trips.

Above the fray.

When you land, anybody who knows you're there could line you up. And in P-au-P you have no protection or recourse.

Gang members just knew that etranje (strangers) were moving around the area . Bus driver could have lined them up for the grab.
