Re: Another reason not to play UB......Aruba boycott
[ QUOTE ]
I am not in favor of a boycott or anything of the sort. But many are not looking at the real reason behind this. Yes, she was killed.

We don't know if she was killed or not yet. She could have also been sold into the sex trade, which is another unfortunate possibility.
On a more serious note -- I've been to Aruba before and it is a great place, and from what I've read, they seem to have done everything possible to try and solve this case. Many Arubans are extremely offended by the disrespect NH's family has given them in regards to this case. I completely sympathize with the family, but Aruba is not some third world country full of people with the average intelligence of an Alabamian, the vast majority of the people there are very well educated, and most speak 4-5 languages. As their entire well-being is based on tourism, it is obviously not in their interest to have stuff like this happen. They are trying just as hard to solve this case as we would here in the States.
