I am doing a project for Puerto Rico and I need to know some of the things that are going "problematic" in Puerto Rico. Please help!|||Right now I would focus on University students and their strikes. One good part to start with is the teachers strike and then the UPR strikes. How about the clashes between ages. An example is the introduction of "perreo" , the dog dance, that caused a lot of scandals and a clear line of definition between young and old. My problem with the police one is the fact that it is always the cops fault, but not the individual. Because of one small portion of police officers act that way it does not mean it is the departments fault. Most police officers do not attack people; thus, it is not the lack of training and trust me their is no lack. I have a cousin who is in the academy and she is up at three in the morning and sleeps at twelve. They have them in training and disciplinary stuff. The team suffers for one persons wrong doing. My cousin only comes home on weekends and she loves it, she says it is hard. So the police thing of poor training is false, I use to think that until my cousin joined. How about drugs, BIG problem. Those "police officers" that act out, most likely involved in drugs. Teenagers and drugs, another big issue. Animals that are abandoned, I have pictures it is bad. That would probably be my choice. Eventually heterosexual marriages and adoption is going to be a big uprising. A lot more people now accepting the fact that they are gays and lesbians, especially the younger crowd.|||The nearest thing to human rights problem you might find in PR is with the police. I know personally my husband was struck multiple times by a police officer during a routine traffic violation stop. He was then taken to the police station, because they assumed from his different spanish accent that he was an illegal (and it didn't seem to matter that he had a valid PR drivers license AND voters card). See he is a Puerto Rican from the USVI, so his accent differs from locals. He was threatened with deportation (lol) and when he laughed they struck him with a phone book! After two hours, one of the officers figured out that he was in fact an American citizen and that deporting him back to the US Virgin Islands was not an option. He was let go with a not so veiled threat as to not trying to complain. Recently there have been clashes with protesting collage students that have led to accusations of unnecessary force. We have had several incidents of people being killed in police custody, most recently a youth who was on the ground being detained and was shot multiple times by an officer. The youth was a witness to a robbery, but was mistaken as a robber. The officer claims to have tripped and set off the first shot, which seemed to have set off the other officer, but more than 10 shots were fired at a boy who was on the ground with his hands behind his head. You can't lump the police all together as bad, of course, but corruption is huge here. As it is in all places where you are a gateway for drug traffickers. Police here are underpaid, and under trained and often resort to brutality to calm situations down.|||The human rights problems in PR are the same human rights problems in the USA. The police are undereducated and underpaid and shows in the treatment towards the people. The Government is the most left government in the USA. Think of San Francisco and PR is to the left of it, way left. People complaint that they can not strike, but their way to strike is to violate others civil rights and when the police interfere, "they are violating human rights". PR is very left and the media is way "out there" as well. So what you are going to encounter is a lot of hoopla on human rights violations that do not compare with the human rights violations in mainland USA.|||ok 1. political ideals and issues( the countries controversial confrontations when it comes to the islands status). 2. government bureaucracy is the other main problem in society (very slow process unless you have money, power and connections to do so).|||Think of Puerto Rico has similar to the United States....it is a Commonwealth. The issues right now are jobs and the economy just like the mainland.|||One big problem is the US is trying too make puerto rico become a state.Never will happen but its a problem
