    I would say , unless you also know Higher ups in positions of real authority , I would not fraternize with the cops too much. They may be sizing you up to see how much money you got, and how they can exploit you at some time in the future.
    It doesnt hurt to be friendly with them, and even buy them a beer when they come around, even throw them couple pesos BEFORE you get into a jam, not during . We all have at least one we know by name with his personal cell # in case some chica gets stupid, but thats all minor shit anyway. Any real problems, they wont be able to get you out of it like say here in the states if you got a PBA card, and your in GOOD with some chief of Police, Its not like that over there.
    But then again, the things that VERY ILLEGAL here, like drinking and driving , being stupid in public & throwing screaming hookers out of your room at 3 am, are no big deal or even illegal over there , LOL .

    Couple guys who live there including one of our sponsors can verify how the cops operate . Its like the Wild West. Much the of the same in Santo Domingo, the cops there are known to get freebees from the street putas, and the girls set Gringos up for them. Its really no secret.

    Yes, i'm very much aware of this since i've experienced 4 or 5 shake down attempts by the Policia in Santo Domingo. I just don't see why anybody would want to live in that kind of environment ON PURPOSE!!!

    Tell you the truth,even with the shake downs, I would PREFER that environment.
    We have a million Laws here in the USA,yet in any major city you can get yourself Killed without even trying. Cops cant protect you,they can only clean up afterwards.
    At least there you have this sense of almost complete freedom, eventhough it comes at a heavy price if you are not on your toes.

    But we're not talking about getting killed. That can happen anywhere. We're talking about having to pay the Police to file a report when you are car jacked. Or being illegally charged 8000 pesos for driving while talking on a cell phone.

    Hey! I am from Kansas.

    To go back to the original question of the thread. If I was there in official capacity of the US Govt, Hell yeah I would make friends with local cops. These are some of the best folks for local intel. However without the backing of the US govt, hell no. Less interaction is better. Give them respect and stay out their way.

    I was operating under the "When in Rome" theory. But it was no great loss. The whole state is almost as flat as all your past dates.

    You must be talking about Naptime in that photo, not me. Having taken the time to give that photo a good look, with a very critical eye I might add, I have come to the conclusion that I am, indeed, a fine figure of a man. What the other two in the photo are a "fine figure of" is anyone's guess and I hereby solicit the opinion of others on the matter.

    Actually I do not remember. Not because I never looked that good but beacuse the '70's was a real tough decade for me so remembering things is not my forte. And that memory thing has its drawbacks. One is that when you guys return to the DR it will be like seeing you for the first time again. And the body and mind can take only so many horrific shocks to the system before problems develop. For a younger man that might not be a problem but as you so eloquently pointed out I am not a young man any longer.
