Having spent time in Mexico in many areas of the country and also spending time in Colombia, I’ll take Colombia in a New York second.

the drug thugs out gun and out man the military and a large portion of the police, government officials and politicians are on the drug payroll. People have to be totally unconscious to venture any wheres near the border yet alone cross it.

Thousands of Americans living in Mexico get along real well. Sometimes, it gets SO BAD here, it is kind of like uh...maybe Detroit or Washington DC.

... I have 1 ocean in walking distance, and another less than an hour away.. Mexico spans about the same distance as from Anchorage to Atlanta... How on Earth can you follow up the first sentence with the second and still try to be credible? Maybe if you take the square mileage of Mexico and convert it into a straight line.

The distance from Tijuana, Baja California to Merida, Yucatan is about 1900 miles. The distance from Anchorage to Atlanta is nearly twice as far, 3400 miles.

Mexico spans about the same distance as from Anchorage to Atlanta, and about 90% of it is no more dangerous than the street you live on. It is 3400 miles, more-or-less, from Anchorage to Atlanta.
It is 1900 miles from Tijuana to Merida.
Try again.

I have a friend that has a bar in San Jose, and a ranch that straddles the ridge on the coast. He loves the place, and hates to come back to the US for business.
Another friend who was born there, but came to the US for high school, has been trying to get me to move down there. She is a bit of a leftist, as I recall.

I could see renting but **buying** land or a house? I don't see that as a good idea. The country is very closely divided between the Marxists and those who support capitalism. It could easily flip in any election.
What did your friend have to say about the TLC election and the blatant Marxist rhetoric used by the anti-free traders?

How well does your friend who owns the bar and ranch speak and read Spanish? Does he read the newspapers daily?

I suspect not fluently. - He speaks money.
He has numerous native employees, which engraciates him with the local power structure.

It’s the world turned upside down. How long as a nation can we let this go on?

We used to drive there from Tucson. You headed south from Nogales. It would be a very dangeros drive today. I’ll go to the Virgin Islands or the Bahamas instead.

I made the same drive and as I recall lots of empty spaces and lonely places. The only way I’d make that today is if I had my son’s Marine Marsoc Team with me.

His wife was smart enough to know to get out of Mexico. She moved to Atlanta. He was dumb enough to stay in Mexico. The fact that he did not want to carry a gun shows the level of his intelligence.

“The fact that he did not want to carry a gun shows the level of his intelligence.”
I reckon it’s safe to assume he used to be a liberal, then.

For all the crying that “guns used in crimes” come from the US, the reality is that the AR-15 type rifles come from China, smuggled in through the coast or Cuba, Nicaragua or Venezuela.

Yeah, I guess it’s waaay more important to argue size than the reality and ignorance of the first post. But I expect that on FR.
