LOL!
Just WOW. Hard to believe the stupidity of that quote.
American’s need to stay away from Mexico. Don’t these people hear the news? Duh! The country is a drug cesspool.
Anyone going to Mexico these days is nuts, IMO. Anywhere in Mexico!
Business as usual.
There's a BEAR involved in the murder?
Shouldn't that be "grisly"?
Ol' Gaby needs to use the dictionary more often.
Not a turtle this time?
I’ve lost my head once or twice...

How many retired Americans are living in Mexico?
Check this out by the Mexican Tourist Board:

“Other cities becoming more popular for North Americans are San Miguel de Allende, Morelia, and Oaxaca. San Miguel de Allende, declared a national monument in the 1920s, is a legendary town of artisans and poets.”.....
Artisans and poets?.....Oh Jeez!....Old hippies everywhere...No thanks!
“I don’t want (the car) back,” said the daughter......
Because of one severed head on the trunk?.....Man-up!
“Just WOW. Hard to believe the stupidity of that quote.” You mean this one? “They left us without a car just to kill somebody,” she said.
It was all about the car, not the guy that got his head whacked off. I detect a note of me, me, me.
Ping!
If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.
Drug users don’t behead people ... Scumbags Criminals do (and Islamic’s) ...
4 Problems in Mexico
Our Drug Laws ... Prohibition was stupid back in the depression era, just as is the governments prohibition on drug use. Obviously American’s do not learn from the past ...
If drugs were taxed and legalized ... half the cartels money would be depleted and the US would have a little extra money on the books ...
2nd Problem in Mexico - lack of an armed population ... If people had the means to fight back against the Cartels ...
3rd Problem in Mexico - Corruption. Police, government, etc... Judicial ...
4th Problem in Mexico - it’s a 3rd world country. just a complete lawless mess ...
Until our Drug Laws are changed, until our border is fenced and until the government of Mexico is at 15% functionality (instead of functioning at 5%) this is going to continue.
If the cartels continue to receive money, they are going to continue to terrorize and harm the Mexican population and eventually our population.
My solution: Regulate drugs. Remove the cartels money and then eliminate the cartel.
Not arguing for or against - but curious about one thing. If the drug cartels are willing to use car bombs in Mexico, willing to kill as many as they have, and are pretty much willing to take on the Mexican Army, how do you predict they will react when they lose the vast majority of their income to legalization in the US?
Hmmmm... Leaving your passports, money, and the rest in your car in a high crime area... What could go wrong?
I was NOT there and I’ve got witnesses!
