AGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

TIJUANA!

NEXT IT WILL BE MALIBU OR ROLLING HILLS ESTATES!

Lock your doors and windows! Absolutely unconscionable for a city of only (how many?) millions.

Now they arrest the police. Years ago, the cops used to "not show up for work ever again" if someone dropped the dime on them. They'd move to another state.

But these fine figures of morality continue to get cash subsidies and physical support from those poor innocent "recreational" drug users who insist on "Cheap Drugs At Any Price".

It appears that Phoenix, Az is second only to Mexico City as the kidnapping capital of the planet.

And so is this.http://www.borderlandbeat.com/2013/04/is-tijuana-heating-up-again-at-least-23.html

Seems like this whole war is beginning to start all over again. The '' Baja is safe groups '' need to do some soul searching and maybe not misinform people. Sure like they say
" every big city has its problems " but what gets me is the corruption, the dead bodies stacking up and now the Tijuana Police Chief is saying that these homicides wont and are not being investigated because they dont have resources and the dead are more than likely " low lifes ".

We went to Tlaxcala, it is very close to Puebla.

It is the smallest state in Mexico.

The ruins there are different from any other ruins we saw ... They have the rooms where animals were kept, they have rooms where meals were had, and they have an amazing painting that is in great shape - it is a painting of warriors. I can post some photos if anyone is interested.





Come visit La Bocana
