Santo Domingo.- Immigration Agency director Sigfrido Pared today revealed that 300 foreigners have been deported from the Dominican Republic in the last six months, who were hiding out here after committing various crimes in their country.

He said the deportations cost Immigration 1.5 million pesos monthly and include citizens from Germany, Spain, France, U.S., Canada, Peru and others.

The official said the foreigners have broken the country’s laws, others have overstayed their visa and others are wanted in their respective countries, which alert the Dominican authorities. “This deportation process has a very high cost of around 1.5 million pesos monthly, but despite the cost it’s necessary to avoid greater evils.”

He noted that even if they break the law when those foreigners have residency the process becomes slower, but if they are here illegally the deportation is carried out via the administrative route.

Arizona immigration bill condemned by rights groups

By Emilio San Pedro
BBC News

US immigrant rights groups have sharply criticised a bill approved by Arizona's Congress that makes it an offence for a person to lack the proper paperwork.
One group, the National Council of La Raza, said the bill would turn Latinos, regardless of their legal status, into suspects in their own communities.

Supporters of the bill say it will help bring illegal immigration under control in Arizona.
The state is the main entry point for undocumented immigrants into the US.
This latest measure would cement Arizona's reputation as the US state with the toughest immigration laws in the country.

It gives sweeping new powers to the local authorities to determine a person's legal immigrant status - something which has traditionally been the domain of federal immigration.
Immigrant rights groups have said they will mount legal challenges to overturn the measure if it is signed into law, as expected by the state's Republican governor, Jan Brewer.


And these people haven't been charged with committing a crime.

300 foreigners in 6 months, it averages out at 50 per month. Petty results. But something is better then nothing. What is it about the DR that attracts all of these undesirables?

Anyway, at least we are doing something and something is better then nothing. We definitely have a hot potato in our hands and we are dealing with it as best we can. But let me point out that we are deporting Hispanics and white Europeans as well and not limited to Haitians only. Every country should have an undisputable right to clean up their population from people who will only bring bad habits and contaminate the rest of the population or make it worse then what it is already. We don't need any more drecks of the international society on our shores, we are satisfied with what we have as our own.

rokin,

That is truly sad and shows how backward we still are as a society.

Like I said before we killed Trujillo but not Trujillismo.

Look at the irony of a particular individual who uses this moniker phrase at the ends of their postings:


“Knowledge is Power” and then calls for the banning of someone because the disagree with their views.


If that is not Dominican style schizophrenia I don’t know what is!

One of the few times I agree with Josean. No need to ban someone for expressing his views in a non-hostile manner. Calling people peasants should not get anyone banned.

Dean Josean,

I've been gone a while, so I don't know much about what has transpired lately at DT.

What happened to Blutarsky?

Did he get himself banned again?

What the heck did he do this time?

At this pace, even a cat would be running out of remaining lives.

Please let me know.

Having being raised in South Los Angeles during the mid 1960's I can say from eye whitness accounts / experiance "La Raza" sucks and has roots from the "Brown Berets" a social radical group of Latino socialist commy misfits......who were followers of "Che" dressed, acted and a bunch of out dated wannabes.

La Raza should be ashamed........they don'd represent nobody but them selves.

ILLEGAL IS ILLEGAL which is and will always be !
which is a slap in the face of those thousands upon thousands of Latinos and many from around the world who abided by the LEGAL U.S immigration laws.

Question:
What does "La Raza" really stand for ? and who's Raza are they really representing ?

GOD HELP US.....FROM ALL THE MISGUIDED.

Dr. Strangelove,

I am sorry that I can not shed any clarity on this current banning for you. As many have said old Banistan was absent recently for a few days and honestly his posting prior and subsequent to that period where quite mild. At least the ones I read did not have a microcosm of anything that I would consider offensive.

Then again I am not the most objective person on this subject, as I have absolutely ZERO tolerance for censorship.

I am totally in the dark on this one doc and I can't even blame Celso this time!

Well it's a fact many gringos (US, Canadians, French , Italians, Germans etc ) are fleeing their national justice and seeking refuge in the DR.

Have you ever been to Las terrenas (peninsula de samana) ?

All the French convicts (or former convicts) from Marseille , Bordeaux , Corsica etc are settled there.

They "bleached " their drug money by buying lot of terrenos in the early 90s and by solding them back to anyone who wants to buy a house.

All the former pimps, drug smuggler , murderers , tax evasion businessmen are settled there.

This former small pueblo has been developped as a big tourism business with their dirty money.

French convicts ( or former convicts) are the true rulers of las terrenas ...Bu'ts it's obviously all right for the DR officials because they're all whites...

@ Etienne01

As I always say, GRINGOS are the first plague of the DR not haitians :

- Sexual tourism ;
- Drug smuggling out the DR and in the DR ;
- Corruption of officials ;
- Pimping [ The good portion of clubs belong to them : Club 59 in Sosua( italian) or la Bodega in las terrenas (French)]

I spoke with many French in las terrenas , when I asked them if they'll go back to France they say NO !!! , many of them can't go back in reality...

Some of them are retired with a french pension, and they were former executives so 1900 euros is good money in the DR. Nevetheless many of them are crooks, they have a "official" businesses : restaurant , tourism company , shops, car & motocycle rental companies... But behind that they do nasty things : Laundering money, selling drugs etc.

One French gringo in Rio San Juan told me : "We're safe in this country, anyway if there was the problem the US would fix them up (meaning the dominicans) "

@Dreadlocks

I feel you and I'm agree with what you said , they will never allow an African american group settlement in the DR, like it happened in the past in the Samana peninsula. They're too black lol

Some French proposed me to buy a house in las terrenas , or in rio san juan but I don't trust them. I'm an executive in Paris so they respect me. But being black (from west africa) , and I was born in France, I must tell you that French are one of the most racist country of this world.

We all know how they treated the jews during WWII in France. It was the French governement, and the Police who gave them to the nazis. In France we had a lot of CONCENTRATION CAMPS (more than 20) but they hide it...French hate foreigners, Italians, British, Germans ( they beat the hell out of them many times), Spanish (whom they call white niggers ou "Nègres blancs"), and everything colored ( blacks, north africans etc)...

France was freed by the allies and their colonies ( Africans , Berbers , Indochina ) , 93 % of the French didn't fight during the WWII and collaborated without no pain with the nazis. WE LIBERATED THEM.

So when I see them in the DR or in my own country leaving very well and segregating the nationals in their own country I want to ....

One of my dominican friend has a Tourism agency in Las terrenas , but the French called the police and said he was Haitian...In order to destroy him...He was obliged to hire a French woman secretary in order to get some clients in las terrenas...

French should respect Dominicans because between 1940 and 1944 :

- France was the whorehouse of the germans (young girls, students, married women)
- They had no food (rationing tickets) because all their agricultural products were sent to Germany
- They had to pay 400 Millions of Francs every day to the germans

They were a colony and treated like beats and they didn't get that lesson

Have I not heard that same story once before aproximately 500+ years ago but instead of the French, it was under the Spanish crown or was it a combination of both ? No doubt each and every time, history repeats itself, sooner then later.

Colombus emptied out the Jails of spain into Hispaniola : see Hugh Thomas (Rivers of gold ) ,Van Middeldyk, or José Antonio Saco , they were called " forzados". French did the same into their west indians colonies (Ayiti, Guadeloupe, Matinique) , they emptied out all their convicts in their colonies plus all the whores of Paris'streets for these new colonists because in 1697 there was not anymore Tainos women for them ( saved those mixed with africans and spanish).

Pierre de la Vayssière, a French historian, wrote an in interesting book ( using the national archives) in 1909 about the first french who settled in Ayiti : the scumbags of France ( men and women). In the US it was the same process all the convict rabble of England has been deported there ( Richard Brandon Morris, Abbott Emerson Smith) after 1776 they were deported to Australia for the great loss of the aboriginals. Portugueses did the same in Brazil and in their east indies colonies where the vagrants child of Lisbon

...Were deported in order to work in the sugar plantations.

When you look carefully at the first europeans settlers status in the West Indies or North America , you'll have serious crazy laughings when you'll find out how they lied in their books.

Speaking about british rural workers Benjamin Frankiln said in 1771 : " Compared to these people every Indian is a gentleman; and the effect of this kind of civil society seems only to be the depressing multitudes below the savage state that a few may be raised above it".

In Barbados , Planters in 1685 refused them and gave them the name "Sweeping of the jails". Virginia and Maryland were convict states and the insecurity was very high (see "Government and labor in early america" Richard Brandon Morris). These convicts, poors, political prisoners were used as slaves before the African were deported in the new world : US, Jamaica, Barbados, Hispaniola etc , many of them took refuge to the Indians ...

The first slaves of the New world were the Indians .Spanish and Portuguese sent thousands of them in Sevilla , Lisbon, North Africa, Angola ( Dutch and portuguese soldiers)...Las casas pleaded for them and suggested to bring in some white and black slaves ( see Hugh thomas , or Michael Gomez, or José Antonio saco "Historia de la esclavitud")

His direct successor was the poor or convict guy from Europe called falsely "Indentured servant " : The first one came in Hispaniola with colombus , US, Barbados, Jamaica , Guadeloupe, Martinique , St Christopher (St-Kitts) etc

The last one was the African...

They won't tell you these stories at school or at the university NO DOUBT...
