this won't end until someone comes in to make it end...and by someone, I mean the good ole US military.  Far too much corruption and money involved to make it go away otherwise.

 

I'm sure there's lots of Americans/Canadians in high high authority getting a big ole slice of the action too

My neighbor's son lives in Mexico City and she goes to see him a couple of times a year. She claims she never feels in danger and the crime isn't as bad in the city as people think. You don't walk alone at night in rough neighborhoods and such but with common sense you are fine.

 

I think this type of gruesome murder stuff is more common closer to the US. Juarez e.g. is the murder capital of the world.

 

They also have a beach villa or something on the west coast where crime is nonexistent.

 

But I'm not going either.

Most of Mexico is pretty safe, the issue is closer to the border. On the other hand, in past years there has been a rise in kidnaping for ransom in Mexico and throughout areas on Central and South America. My last trip to Mexico City I went with my cousin to meet a friend of his from Penn State. Before we left the country, we had to take a hostage class. Our friend over there, her dad is an executive with Phillip Morris, so we spent the whole time traveling with bodyguards and 3-4 car convoys of bulletproof suburbans. The city has some areas that are very beautiful and look just like Spain although the green beetle taxis everywhere are pretty ugly. Further, as for safety, all the beach resort towns like Cozumel, Playa del Carmen and Cabo are all very safe.

I was trying to verify what I said about resort town being safe and stumbled across this link, a lot of good info for anyone going and scary at same time.

Here are some excerpts:

-I think me and my girl were roofied at the Grand Oasis on a recent trip to Cancun

-He had severe injuries and we were told they could not do life saving surgery without credit card payment. Eventually they did surgery then demanded 50000 dollars before they would medically release him for air evac

-Drinks are spiked and that is not even news, but If you want first hand testimony I have that too. Females and males ending in rape.......

- If you get sick in Mexico... BEWARE of what they prescribe for you u. We thought we were safe because we were at a high end resort with medical staff on site. Not so

Here is link, all these stories are from past few months this year!

Please... the cartels know where the money is coming from and the last thing they want to see happen is the US to make Mexico persona non grata for American tourists.

 

I travel to Mexico a few times a year and have a great time. We hike, explore ruins, find remote cenotas for swimming, use the local taxis if need be... unless you act like the Ugly American you'll be fine.

 

At 6'6" you don't think I stand out in a crowd of Mexicans? I don't care, I speak a little of the language and enjoy their company.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
