Black red, From what I heard the Macoutes were a repressive force in Haiti.

They used fear and intimidation to oppress the people.

I agree with you that Haiti needs lasting peace and security, but a macoute type of security is certainly not the solution.

If that were to happen it would set whatever little progress Haiti has done down the drain.

Haiti needs a well organize, discipline police force, and they need to expand the police force.

The Haitian government has to make security a priority in the country, and it has to begin paying the police better salaries in order to mitigate the levels corruptions.

From what I heard the police's salary is pretty miserable and that is one of the reason why they are prone to accepting bribes; next to that is the need to better educate them. Haiti's problems are enormous and complex, but if we all join hands we can unfold some of the issues.
