Citizen Security Petition

I just read this article at amcostarica.com regarding an expat-led effort to communicate the gravity of the security situation in Costa Rica. I too have been a victim of crime in Costa Rica (many times over), as have nearly all of my expat and Costa Rican friends. If things continue as they have, Costa Rica will lose the luster of its current reputation as a laid-back, safe, stable place to travel and live.

There is an online petition that you can currently read and decide to sign. The petition, which will be given to President Laura Chinchilla, currently has over 300 signatories. Of course, the petition has no legal bearing, but if enough people take the time to join this cause, maybe somebody in the government will take notice.
