I have known a couple of people who decided to move the Mexico only to find out, too late, that they had no rights at all. One pair of brothers who built a beautiful home near a sea port where they loved to fish had it all just taken from them.

I don't understand people still thinking about moving there.

Someone told me once that if you want the cops to do anything you have to bribe them, pay them off, even for murder which is why every sicko on the planet who gets off on torture and killing goes down there because they know they’ll get away with it. Like you said, never in a million years would I go there.

We used to have to pay bribes to Mexican officials in order to bring food to starving and hungry kids in the orphanages. And if one of the kids got sick and had to be taken to a hospital across the border there were more bribes involved.

Sounds like the Ensenada incident from 10-15 years ago. I am not an apologist for what happened but every resident of the beach area was told before they bought/leased land on the bay of the Mexico Supreme court case pending. There was 14 years of litigation and over 60 lawsuits filed before the MSC ruled for the original land owners.

***had it all just taken from them. ***

I remember this happening forty years ago. Americans built a home in Mexico, the government confiscated it. When they went back to claim their furniture and movable goods, they were told by the Police....”You have nothing here that belongs to you.”
