If you followed my posts in the "OT" area. You would learn there are certain links from certain posters you should never open.
Maggie is in cohoots with certain Nomad members, and much of what she says is all just an act, although she is truly bi-polar.

Whatever.
"Over the years, the United States has maintained a bad track record in Mexico and Latin America as an Imperialist promoter of banana republics and a
looter of Mexican and Latin American resources."
There is a great deal of truth in this comment. Seems to me that we have wasted our treasure in places such as Viet Nam and the Middle East, while
ignoring the sleeping giant that lurks just South of us. Never understood why we have given short shrift to Latin America for so long.
Interestingly, I just read about several muti-national oil companies that are hugely optimistic about finding large reserves of petroleum in Cuba, and
its surrounding waters. Anyone care to suggest what the US policy toward Cuba might be, if they hit a gusher?
That said, I'll repeat myself. BCS has been out of the line of fire of the cartel nonsense for years. Even crime, per se, is barely higher than it was
before the tourism took a dump Like 1-2% higher than five years ago.. As I recall, there was an American shot and killed in the lobby of the Pueblo
Bonito Rose last April. Other than that, crimes have been relatively petty.

At the edge of 13:50 hours today, again there was a significant mobilization of the Mexican Army personnel in the port, due to another shootout, but

This confrontation led to personnel of the Armed Forces, Police and Municipal Ministerial, sheltering civilians in the stores that are located in the
Plaza Sendero, including Soriana department store, it is surrounded by elements of Mexico's Navy, who made a call, especially to young people to

The road to Todos Santos and Aguajito Avenue, just off Plaza Sendero, have been completely closed to vehicular traffic as sporadic explosions are
heard.

Right now (Sunday afternoon) the Mexican military is all over colonia Cerro Los Venados doing a house-to-house search. Residents of the colonia have
been told to stay indoors and the rest of Cabo has been ordered to stay away. This area is less than one mile from downtown Cabo San Lucas

Never having been to Cabo, how far is this area from the tourist zone?? I'm a little concerned for Jennifer Aniston.

Having a house in Cabo, many friends that live there all year long I am concerned. I will go down Tuesday and be there two months. Don't really know
jennifer, don't think we would hit it off. But if it was your back yard you might think differently.
Our adopted family there were scared last night. But OK. Their kids are fine. I will ask them if jen stopped by...
I hope it does not increase....but it is Mexico

The events that have taken place over the last 48 hours has caused the naive to sit up and take notice. Hopefully they will also pull their heads out
of the sand.
We live close to Costco however we have friends that live about four block away from Friday night and Saturday afternoon events. They heard both the
AK-47s and loud booms on Friday night but did not hear anything on Saturday (Soriana's parking lot). Today they are driving around the area going
about their business like any other Sunday...none of us have heard "the rest of Cabo has been ordered to stay away."
If you are familar with CSL and driving from the bull ring, then the area in question is about two and half miles by car...as the crow flies maybe one
and half miles.
Like Shari said "condolences to the families of the downed warriors".

Pull up your chair and turn the volume up on your computer and you will hear something at Soriana's parking lot.
And here is a link to the notice from the authorities asking people to remain in their houses:
