Today, Haitians provide cheap labor in the Dominican Republic, a trend that has caused resentment on bothsides, not unlike the illegal immigration debate in the United States.
Not being an expert in gun control or an advocate one way or the other, I do know the current system does not work and it is time for people on bothsides ot the debate to agree that saving lives is an important enough goal to change the system.
This is not to take sides in what is an important debate, with passions that run high on bothsides, merely to point out that their huge presence in the UK can't be assumed to be a net good thing.
