Well...I think I do get it. "It" is not a matter of rights...it's a matter of decency. If the guy is going to be an indecent a-hole just because he
has a right to be, he needs some serious boycott attention.
I love it when all of you folks talk about how they wish baja would never change become Americanized, and yet you are the ones talking "boycott"
Boy coating to change Baja to make it have equality.
Let's be honest in today's environment in Mexico you have to have people interested in traveling in order to have a boycott.
So make up your mind, take Baja as it is or boycott it, but you can't have it both ways

There's good reason to believe that it had an effect on Cd. Constitución and if taking unethical purveyors is part of accepting Baja as it is, you can
have that part. I enjoy seeing the place from a standing position rather than bent over.

How soon you forget, Ken. Doncha remember a while back the thread and efforts to fight back against rampant police street extortion?
Letting the merchants know they were being bypassed because of the crime?
All of a sudden, it stopped...relatively anyway. Had the pressure not been applied, they never would have stopped. These cops were not the types of
guys who would turn there backs on free money without a strong reason.

Did any impartial group track the effects of this informal boycott?

Yes. The Organization of American States positioned a monitor at each intersection and audited every police officer's bank acount.
When the street cops were promised stringent justice in the World Court, they ammended their ways.
Charges are pending.
