Sadly I wonder if what has happened to Marigot is now happening to the entire island.
Noneffective law and order policies and the stories you hear/read in the forums and newspapers gives you that uneasy feeling you get (at least I get) when walking through a big city that has crime issues (Detroit, Philadelphia, Chicago, Atlanta, etc). People go on vacation to feel less apprehensive not more apprehensive so maybe they are going to other destinations (or as Pat said greener pastures).
