Anita, I agree that parents play a huge part. I was born in a foreign country, and raised in a multi-racial, multi-cultural society, so I feel comfort...

I googled "Jim Crow laws" because I had never heard of them, and the information was very depressing. I don't understand why anyone would believe the...

"The great African-American comedienne Moms Mabley used to start her shows by asking her (all-black audiences), "How are you doing, children?" Everyon...

KMart, they also sometimes have the plastic ones.

I think it is an invaluable help for someone relocating. Almost everyone is going to be looking for somewhere to live, and I know I would rather get a...

nejmaniac, don't worry, I think you will be a very valuable "asset" on the island. There are many nice, stable men there, but they are all married. Fi...

Yes it is. Murders aren't so common though, just lots of assaults, rapes and robberies. Look out for yourself. A few years ago a B.A. Flight Attendant...

Shirley Heights on Sundays, Devil's Bridge, Half Moon Bay, English Harbour, Jumby Bay. Be careful, there is a lot of crime and it is not reported beca...

Brent, permanent makeup would definitely not be a good sell for cruise ship passengers. When they are on shore they want to be seeing something of the...

Brent, there are a lot of Canadians who have homes in the Turks & Caicos, so I'm presuming it must be easy. Small, friendly islands, low crime rate, a...

"won't need a green card"?

I was also very impressed with the vets in STX (and that is one thing I'm really picky about) As far as insurance goes, unless you're very unlucky and...

noOne, pardon my ignorance, but don't they mix the MJ with tobacco, and then smoke it without even a filter? At least that is what I saw them doing in...

I really don't want to stir the pot here, but I'm curious why nobody has used the "right to practice their religion" argument in the islands. I know t...

I almost didn't read this topic because I do not use marijuana, nor do I care who does. I was surprised by the amount of passion it created. I don't...

Anjell, you really need to visit. You want to be on Condo Row to be close to shopping?!!! If a trip to KMart is your idea of shopping, then you will b...

Very much so compared with other Caribbean islands (obviously because they are the U.S. Virgin Islands). KMart, McDonald's, AT&T etc, etc Seems like...

Did you try "Ruel's Risque Wear"? (near Plaza Extra) I once got a Halloween costume there, I don't remember if they had masks as well, but it is worth...

OK Michael, I think I understand - I have heard some very bad things about North Florida when it comes to racism. I'm sorry that you have had to go th...

Where were you in Florida? Most of the cops in Miami are Black or Hispanic.

Michael, culture is something that goes very deep - I think it overrides the colour of your skin, or the language that you speak. It doesn't mean that...

Thanks goalusvi, I had to wait a very long time, but it did work. They are doing a great job at the shelter!

I'm sorry to hear what happened to you newarrival. I too was a victim of crime on an island where the Police do nothing, and I never felt safe there a...

I got the plug-in, and still couldn't view it. I don't know what is wrong - any ideas?

I don't think she eats wolves, but she had some hanging on her walls.
