cruise ships

I saw a documentary on Tv last night about cruise ships, Did you know that rape and theft is rife on these things. many families are still missing loved ones that never got off the ship. The captains refusing to do anything more than a search.

These people are still missing.

There is no requirement for doctors or an infirmary of any kind, this is your responsability say the liners owners.

One woman brought he husband home from the cruise in a body bag because he had been given asprin after she told them he was allergic to it.

There is a world wide body now trying to get back at the cruise liners who are not under any laws as they are Liberian registered but gain all the benefits and tax exemptions of an American company even to the point of having the shares on the stock market.

The most shocking news was that most crime and rape is by the crew.

A woman was found dead after rape on the floor of a room of 4 men.

Rooms are thoroughly cleaned after any reports of crime even the security cameras would not be allowed to be used as evidence.

The final warning was that this is like a city in Liberia with no police, or security of any kind, no hospitals or trained doctors.

Sad but true - the Pirates have nothing on the activities of cruise liners... The woman who was drugged, raped and killed was from Brisbane
