That’s leftist talk.

"I will blindly follow the government over citizens" is certainly not Conservative talk.

My wife is from Mexico so Spanish-speaking countries are our target universe.

My Spanish is passable and could be even workaday if I used it frequently.

Never been to Europe (West or East) so deciding to settle there is probably not the best way to start.

Costa Rica is nice, though I’d avoid San Juan. Sweet people out in the countryside.

Small town/rural America is still just fine though, I left the big city 11 years ago and have homes in two small towns. Things are great, no issues.

Cops shouldn’t have to deal with attempted murder when they make mundane arrests for minor offenses.

I agree.

Citizens shouldn’t have to deal with attempted murder (or disrespect) when they make contact with an officer, either.

How does that make me a part of the problem?

They don’t, you are full of Antifa crap.

Me and the wife both love Spain, too, so the idea would be to split time between Poland and Spain.

FM me the town names and maybe a few factoids if you don’t mind.

We are researching now but we are 100% going (it was going to be Mexico but AMLO pretty much put a stop to that).

Lenin called for the banning of cops 6 months before the communist revolution. We’ve seen this movie before.

Cops pulling you over tried to murder you? What happened?

“Disrespect” = “attempted murder” in your book? What book is that?

Look at it this way: You will soon be happy as there will be no cops.

You are a cop hater. What did they do to you?

In all fairness, the thin-blue-line flag is part of the problem. Police themselves contributed to part of the problems being experienced today, by refusing to police themselves and weed out the bad apples.

The only flag police should wear is either the U.S. Flag, or their State Flag.

Sometimes: Highway patrol says it’s unclear if Missouri woman shot and killed by deputy had a gun

Never ever watch FNC on the weekends. They are nuts. Life is too short.

That is not the poster and even then the article you cite is not definitive (”unclear” actually means something in English).

I would never accuse you of being a liberal but I do pause when I see someone use the old liberal standby “single anecdote=proof of all” strawman.

No need if you are 100% going to CR. Check out Inetes de Osa
on the Osa penisula. The only issue there might be medical care, an extreme event could be a problem as it’s a 2 hour car ride plus a 3 hour boat ride to get there. I guess a helicopter could be sent. They do have a clinic but I’m guessing it’s primitive. Heck, one of my Colorado towns puts you on a helicopter to Denver for major stuff.

Medical facilities there would be my prime concern. Americans already settled in CR have all the info you need. There may be an association of them you can find.

I've considered Panama. There are some favorable laws for people looking to move down there. I still have a good ways to go before I actually retire, but it never hurts to look and weigh your options.

That is demonstrably false. Why would you lie?

Socialism is very popular in Spain unfortunately. It’s as leftist as France and Germany. I like Spain, but I wouldn’t consider moving there long-term any more than I’d consider moving to a hard-left blue city in the US.

You are part of the problem then.

Oh please....DU will take you back now. If you think cops broadly...and I mean as a rule...are worse than the people they are sworn to protect us from, then I’m not sure you’re bright enough to post on FR.
