So, Nick or other locals, I have a question.....Not pretending to be a tough guy or anything, but, if I see a guy on Tortola stealing my stuff and I kick the living daylights out of him, knowing the police will do nothing, would those same police do anything to me? Just curious.
I suspect you know the answer.....last year I had another traveler threaten to kick my A$$ at Saba Rock because I accidently sprayed him with a water cannon during the first annual TTOL Pub Crawl .....he bumped me with his chest (so he was in my face) and kept threatening me verbally....I just looked him in the eye(s) and under my breath, so only he could hear I kept saying "you don't want to do this" "you don't want to go there"....luckily his friends dragged him off to the side. Again.....as you said...not trying to sound like a bad a$$ either, but....after retiring from the military and many years as a Marine....I could have broken his windpipe with no thought.....but...I know I would have been the one looking at time in her Majesty's prison....so I was satisfied to just smile and walk away. Possibly locals can chime in, but.....based on everything I have read....unless your life is in danger.....I would keep your superhero a$$ kicking self in your hip pocket!


Ah...dear old Mike....we had a "cease fire" this year whenever approaching docks, Stoney...we knew you were not there to defend us <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />
