What does XX show? do your opps play some sort of Lebensohl, where 3 diamonds directly shows some values?

The biggest "problem" on this hand is the complete lack of information provided by the OP.

Assuming that xx suggests ownership of the hand, any call other than a penalty-oriented double at this point is silly. I agree that this is routine, and this post doesn't belong in this part of the forum (nor anywhere else, except, perhaps, the B/I forum... and even there, this would be a simple non-problem)

If xx means something else, then we should have been told about it

Double (universally penalties). You have far, far more defense than expected.
