Who the hell goes on a trip to the Dominican Republic? I know it’s beautiful, but that wall is not going to keep out the savages. And if those savages get hold of whitey, it will be a long, drawn-out death.

I know a couple who vacations there every year. The US dollar goes far, and the resorts are beautiful. I once asked them about the danger.
No danger, I was told. You are picked up at the airport. Then you go by convoy to the resort. The resorts themselves are surrounded by barbed wire and are patrolled by armed guards.
Huh? There’s a reason for the convoy system, the barbed wire and the armed guards. Why not spend a few bucks more, and vacation in the good ol’ USA?
The Red Sox and Tampa Rays were there this past weekend through yesterday to play a couple Spring Training baseball games.
Keep in mind, baseball is the national pastime of the Dominican Republic. Several MLB teams have training/scouting facilities there. Every kid grows up playing. David Ortiz and Pedro Martinez are both basically national heros there. They have both spent a lot of their own money trying to improve the life on that island.
“Baseball has been very, very god to me.”
