 Unless someone has obvious gang tattoos, I don't know how you would. You don't think cartel guys ever wear suits and ties? Plenty of them look like
respectable businessmen.

 Silly question.
 They do not want the public to identify them.
 Cartel members look like any other typical Mexican man.
 For the race scene they own and drive the top of the line vehicles, but that makes them fit in quite well and be undistinguished.
 
 It is only when they are in combat mode that they can be identified by  their automatic rifles in full display.

 Oh I doubt they all engage in street combat, complete with camo and automatics. There's the head honchos who give the orders and the foot soldiers who
do the dirty work.

 Can one still stop by Espinoza's Place in El Rosario for lobster tacos and information on the road south ?
 
 Or is this just another Desengaño ?

  Lobster chiles rellenos sounds awesome and we know from Udo and my raves how great the crab chowder is (Caldo de jaiba)!
 
 
  As for road info, I think that ended when the highway was completed in late 1973?
  Also the mail delivery to brother Arturo at Laguna Chapala!

 Yes.
 
 I read an article today saying that over 400 Mexican cops from various agencies including the military are on duty for the Baja 500 this weekend.
 
 There will probably be a riot south of Ensenada when fans get caught up in Highway 1 traffic for hours and hours. Some frustrated gun nut will let
loose.

 Cuffing a few low ranking fall guys is all optics, creating the illusion of justice.

 Those "low ranking fall guys" are in danger from the police, the Federales, rival gangs, and now their own gangs!  They are the migrants that I worry
about heading north of the border for their own safety!

 If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
 "Could do better if he tried!"  Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers.  Sadly, still true!

 The sicarios are psychopathic meth heads, street thugs that do the dirty work.  The cartel’s top dogs are untouchable since the top dogs have bought
off the popo and politicians.
