Mood: Checking-off my bucket list.

Luna, thanks for your insightful comments. I feel remiss in not crediting the huge humanity it took to cradle that dying man. I bless her for that. I trust that Mar's family blesses her for that. With my background it is easy to see the "two people", one who comforted a dying man, and the other who modeled a 6 foot one alley cat being forced through a cage door.

Bi-polar disorder takes a lot of forms, and the price it extracts from those with it and around it also takes many forms. I'm sorry Gretchen payed the Rosarito police, but I know that, faced with a serious mental melt-down, most people can do little more than dial 911 if they have the luxury. In California, the police would have taken her to a hospital emergency department to be detained, medicated, and evaluated. Our system is terribly broken, but Rosarito's is really from the dark ages. ...a perfect storm.

What more is known of the punk who killed Mar? Anyone?

Pretty sad to see Nomads attacking Nomads.
Not why I joined this site. Seems like everyone needs to take a deep breath or two...

Good thought. We have a place for this behavior, but somebody left the gate open.

I promised myself I would not post on this thread again but... so much for a self promise.

THE THINGS I HAVE LEARNED:
1. Never go on for a walk on the beach without shoes and a bra and cellphone..would a bikini and flip flops work?

2. Etiquette with Police/Emergency people.. Avoid comforting strangers, gunshots, yelling, blood contact, irrational behaviour under stress etc.

3. Jails--Always take your meds, don't forget a cellphone with contact numbers, be contrite, meek, mild and speak several languages.

4. After event---Never ever post a video in your pajamas and delete all web accounts, profiles and history.

5. Please add on...

Which Nomad member is being attacked?

If you're talking about Tall Artist who made that one post where she claims to have seen Gary Patton. There is no evidence this is the same person who made the YouTube video, especially since "Baja Nomad" is known to attract trolls who use second handles to have a little fun.

And if it is the real Tall Artist, I certainly would like to hear more about her seeing Gary Patton, and I would certainly like her to expand a little bit more on her experiences in the Rosarito jail and exactly what state she was in during her fight with the Rosarito police while they were trying to put her in prison. She would of course have more respect if she was an actual member here.

It's also pretty sad to see Nomads attack Rosarito, Baja, and Mexico using a one-sided account from an American women who admits to be suffering from a pretty serious mental condition that could cast doubt on her eye witness account of things.

It also seems some people don't like to be challenged or their narrative and so make ad hominem on those they disagree with in a vein attempt to silence them. ( Doug Doug Doug I don't like what so and so is saying, are you going to stand for it? ) Please people we're adults here, and you can take alternative ways of looking at things.

redmesa, I would add if one doesn't speak several languages perhaps having a good Spanish dictionary app on their cell phone.

Wiley I did go back to the video and lo and behold, it was in color but the colors were very pale, I guess because of the lighting. Her fingernails were not painted, and looked very natural.

No haven't gone back and checked it out, not sure I want to ... getting a raw deal in life ... think I could make a few video's too

I'll take your word for it .... the wife didn't have her nails done that much when down ... it's a ritual here

Just finished Ben Hur in Blue Ray ...... still a super movie IMHO

Was some great acting ... Loved it when Ben Hur, is given the "ring" from Ester ..

WOW really hot stuff, without the need for the usual T&A ... IMHO

You welcome >500k people per year in "your place." What are you, a walmart door greeter?

I have seen the fashion choices of nomads, most nomads are overweight and far from fashionable,... Their opinions on when to wear or not wear pajamas are meaningless!

Now there's a "real person" for ya.

What I want to read about is what the Rosarito cops have to say. Oh wait a minute - no I changed my mind, I want to read what the Tijuana U.S. Consulate says about it. Outrage in the U.S. Congress. Retargeting of Trident 3 missiles. No? Well how about "anything"?
