Support your changes

I really don't understand US American's.  We voted for change did we think it would happen over night. It took the previous administration 8 years to destroy the economy do you think this new guy can fix it in 18 months?   Bernie Madoff and Allen Stanford got away with their nonsense for so many years and now they want the new president to fix it over night.

Open Letter to Terry Ward - "Writers to Avoid

Open Letter to Terry Ward

I'll bet you wouldn’t like it if I wrote a story that said "Writers to Avoid" would you? I am offended by your story "Caribbean Islands to Avoid", firstly the story is loosely written and very broad.


The title alone will turn people off from Caribbean Islands. As a well traveled American living in Antigua I find your report shallow and offensive. It looks like you generalized by writing what you have read in the papers about people that have placed themselves in precarious positions.

Would you walk down a dark alley in Thailand? where is your story on Countries to Avoid? Stay away from Haiti? state the obvious why don't you.



Yet you write telling people to avoid Antigua? One of the prettiest and friendliest Islands in Caribbean? Bahamas? what is so bad? Any one of the islands could be dangerous if your brain is on vacation when you travel. There is crime around the globe.

The islands in the Caribbean rely on tourism as a major source of income, yet with one fell swoop of your pen you publish to millions on AOL and who knows where else, and you did so without any first hand knowledge.
