Bad, bad news from amigo BajaCactus


I wish to be somewhat vague in details here in case there could be any potential safety issue. However think it's important right now that we are also sending out positive thoughts and prayers for our amigo BajaCactus and those close to him. They have suffered an absolutely devastating loss in the past day.

This is doubly tragic, since it strikes so close to home. The limits of tolerance for this kind of violence have been stretched to the point where I think it's time to declare martial law in Tijuana.

This is terrorism, pure and simple.

This is the worst! Our prayers and thoughts are with the family. Drugs and drugs and more drugs are the scourge of Mexico and the U.S.

Sellers of this stuff are very bad people but users are just as responsible.
