The worse type of person you can come across is a desperate
one. Those criminals tossed across the border from the US are
just that, felons with $5 in their pocket. That line that the price
in TJ, of getting someone killed last yr. was $100. At least the violent
crimes are within the drug trade, at least us Joe Gringo
Tourists don't deal with that, just hoping not to run into a
criminal deportee

Why is the term Criminal Actor used. Either they are criminals or they are actors playing a criminal.

Lots of African faces of refugees trying to get into the USA.

But, I'm constantly reading that many deportees are being welcomed back as there is a need for their skills and work ethics.

Just wait a year and see what your costs of produce, poultry and pork are. MAGA. Albeit a tad more expensive. Erm, a LOT more expensive, including your healthcare.

Riiiiiggght, Chuck. You're preachin' to the choir here. We're both 'covered' by VA. Question is, covered in what? I wouldn't let 'em do an autopsy on me.

The LAST Thing to EVER Worry Over ...........


.......Is WHO might do your Autopsy.

It's ALWAYS painless.

As to violent crime, it ALL works out.

Some will heed the warnings, some won't.

Some will avoid danger, some won't.

Some will suffer and/or DIE, some won't.

People will adjust.

And...............

"Everythang's Gonna be Awright"

BTW, the "farm labor" cost of produce is typically one-third of farm revenue and said revenue is roughly one-third of the market price SO we're looking at one-third of one-third. An unlikely DOUBLING of picking labor expense would result in a negligible increase to the consumer.

Few crops are picked by hand..Certainly not the ones that feed you staples. Corn Wheat Beans Sunflowers Even vegtables (sp) are harvested by machinery. But almost all processing is done by Hispanic workers Poultry meats dairies canneries..I cannot project effect on price but I KNOW that few other workers will do these jobs, even tho they pay well. My local dairy (2700 cows) employs about 80 workers, ALL Hispanic. They get nice housing, 401k's, medical insurance paid vacations...They are hard workers...There is little turnover. When there is an opening it is advertised in the local papers. I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of non Hispanics that apply. Its easier to stay on the dole and complain about no jobs. You figure it out, ask your "other sources"..

Talk about taking a thread off track. This thread is about the spiking violence in Tijuana, but it morphed into a topic about Mexican farm, or poultry workers, as if that's the only kind of work Mexicans can do.

But I'm at a lost why anybody believes US will be left without Mexican agriculture, poultry, or similar type of workers who do backbreaking work?

Just because Trump, and Sessions, will garner a few headlines, by deporting a few hundred undocumented Mexican aliens, including a handful of non-criminal undocumented Mexican mothers, who sit in their car in front of schools to pick up their children, and then leaving their American children crying on the street.

Does anybody actual believe California agriculture companies or a major poultry company like Tyson, would allow this to happen?

Now regarding the spiking violence in Tijuana.

It sure was nicer in Tijuana, when just the "Arellano Félix Organization" was running things in Tijuana.

It's not good all these other cartels to move in like the Sinaloa Cartel, who moved in a few years ago, when the Tijuana cartel, was weakened, and how we the, Nueva Generación (CJNG) cartel, making inroads, and is recruiting former members of "Arellano Félix Organization."

But up to 90% of the homicides involve lower level street junkies selling drugs on turf/streets they are not authorized to sell drugs on. So if you're not a drug dealer, Tijuana cop, or involved in the drug trade in any way, you should be safe in TJ.

A few years ago, there were rumors that both Mexico and the US, were favoring certain drug cartels over others, like the "Sinaloa Cartel." It might be something to consider again, as there was some evidenced of favoring certain cartels.

Of course the best thing Mexico or the US could do is decriminalized drug possession totality, and quit putting people in prison over drug charges. They could then use the money saved for free drug treatment programs.

Is there links to the Nomad postings during those years that decried the plight of any of those 2.5 million? And posted predictions of the pending doom on our wellbeing then?

Yet a thread started about crime in TJ gives rise to condemnation of a President who hasn't even come close yet to Obama's deeds on deportation.
Those were instant turnarounds for those mexicans trying to sneak in at the border. PHONY STATS.
