You know Ron, I let a lot of your comments just slide by without commenting because I figure you're just a little lonely down there in Rosarito and
are looking for some English conversation and want to keep some dialogue going in English.
That's OK. But I just want to let you know that you do not have the horsepower nor background to psychoanalyze me. As to your preceding links to
numerous bad things that happen on US highways, I want to point out the deficiencies in your argument. Your rebuttal argument has a name, it is called
"Tu quoque". It's the "you too" fallacy. Instead of arguing that Mexico is safe, you are now arguing that US is dangerous too.
It's the type of argument that one would expect to hear from a guy who sells Rosarito real estate to gabachos when they say, "But isn't Mexico
dangerous?" Your posts are full of these "Tu quoque" arguments, or similar fallacies. For everything bad that is mentioned about Mexico, you have a
pat answer of on whom to lay-off the blame, or how it's bad everywhere else too.
And just to make you feel better, no Ron, I am not bitter, depressed nor lonely and I never drank. I used to make a living breaking the kneecaps of
four-flushers.
If you feel like doing some explaining, explain to us why you are so opposed to a group that wanted to bring the Baja California real estate
transaction standards up to a par with US standards:

You're just my newest hobby. So suck it up.

"Fulano"
I was previously alerted here by another member as to who you really are. I don't hide behind aliases or pretend to be somebody else to help me make
an argument as you choose to do here and elsewhere on other blogs.
I knew that you would eventually show your true colors. Your anger betrays you.
First of all, let's correct one of your many mistakes. I do not sell Real Estate. I provide online marketing services to help companies including real
estate, but that is as far as it goes. I do not personally show properties nor do I benefit directly if any of them sell. There was a time that I did,
but that has been awhile. More to the point, do you read me saying anything here on BN suggesting folks buy property?
I guess I missed those posts...
Get your facts straight before you make accusations since you pretend to know me so well. I am sure that everybody here would love to know all about
YOUR real story but I doubt seriously that you have the cojones to do it. You simply hide behind your alias that several of us
already figured out who have participated in and/or followed this and other forums.
I have never said that Baja is perfect. It has it potholes, topes and traffic cops with their hands out. But it also has much that we love and why so
many of enjoy this forum and sharing our experiences here. It is okay and even wise to discuss the problems and dangers out there. It is quite another
to be consumed by them to the point that we just lock ourselves into the basement with rations and a shortwave radio. Most of us here love Baja
because it touches on a free spirited nature that lives within us and a connection to a place where we can still be "Nomads" on a planet where few
such geographical options remain. It's a choice for each one of us. If it works for you - GREAT! If not, just move on. But don't go on, and on, and
on, and on with your bitterness because we don't choose to follow your philosophy towards life. The greatest experiences in life often include taking
some level of risk. Most of us here share that thinking on some level. If you don't, that's ok. No hard feelings.
As far as your other point, I was against the Baja Fair Trade group. I saw their initial purpose solely as a cheap attempt to attract buyers in a down
market by trompling on the reputations of everybody else that wasn't willing to join their mean spirited effort. Using "disclosure" was just a ruse to
somehow add legitimacy to their small ranks. Most people have seen through that by now. That is old news as far as most people are concerned. Nobody
(except them) even mentions that group anymore.
Trying to have a meaningful discussion with someone blinded by anger and bitterness as you are, is simply impossible. I feel sorry for you. I was very
sincere when I suggested that you take a moment to read my article:
Baja Healing
There are many ways to get lost on that road and alcohol is only one. Anger can take you there and you are hurting. Your own posts attest to the
bitterness in your soul right now my friend and I suggest that you take some of the suggestions in that article to heart. Send me a PM or email and I
would be happy to sit down with you and talk, face to face.
Until you are willing to do so, I choose to just ignore your posts as I know the real story behind them.
Get some help my friend - you need it. I am going out to enjoy another day in the Baja sun. Got a Cadillac Margarita in hand and going to take in the
rest of the day.
Happy Fathers Day...

No. You don't know who I am. I have only posted as fulano on this website. I have not posted as fulano on any other website...not ever. Betcha a
million dollars.

OK. Fair enough. But you have not explained WHY your group is opposed to adopting such radical business ideas as:
1. Deposit all purchase funds in a reputable escrow until transfer of title.
2. Make all deposit checks in the name of a reputable title company.
3. Title insurance and, where relevant, gap insurance from a reputable title company.
4. Manage all debts as mortgages (i.e. liens) that are tied to real property rights
5. Make all contracts contingent upon delivery of a clean title and title insurance
6. Recommend Mexican professional closing services (or legal counsel) and property inspections
7. Disclose any known property factors that may affect a buyer's decision on value
8. Receive no compensation for referrals for third-party services (e.g. lawyers)
What is YOUR opposition to that?

Okay here I go breaking my own rule that I wouldn't answer you.
Obviously you never even looked at the site. There are NO LISTINGS. NO PROPERTIES FOR SALE. NO REAL ESTATE ON THAT PAGE/SITE.
Check for yourself.
That page was setup solely so as to help my friend Willie at Baja California Realty as he was trying to figure out how to use the point2 system and
link/handshake. I have always helped folks with their websites, emails and that includes the point2 system. I have never promoted it or sold any
properties via that site. I get ZERO benefit from that page, as I am getting getting zero from this thread and your posts.
If you think about it, the thread is properly named and the original poster that started this thread just outed himself...
Oh, and we know some of the "other" nicks you use..

Remember what I said that "they" were the only ones still talking about themselves?
The rest of you can draw your own conclusions.
I am done...

I always check before I post, Ron. Schroll down to the bottom and click on the home search button and a plethora of listings are available.
jajajaja
Now you have to respond to me again.
p.s. I do not post under any other nicks.

That is because it is hooked into the point2 system from where I have shown people how to handshake and to where it connects. That is a link to
connect into other peoples listings via the handshake system. None of those are my listings nor do I ever get anything from that or EVER participate
in it. Don't you think I would have a phone number or address on the page if I was selling real estate? Even you have to be smart enough to figure
that out.
Oh, I get it! I am going to be the first real estate agent in history to get rich going incognito!!!
You sound like a very lonely person with WAY too much time on their hands. Get a life - it may help you overcome than venom and bitterness inside.
You really need to read that article and take it to heart. It will get on that road to healing my friend. Life will continue to seem miserable for you
until you do. I know that life has not been kind these past several months for you.
I am out - have a nice day...

I just have to tell you a simple little anecdote about BajaGringo. The other day I posted an article in "El Mexicano" about an American named Dave
Arthur La Barre who was arrested in San Felipe for real estate fraud. Here is the link to that article:
http://el-mexicano.info/nota.aspx?idNota=308006&esSecc=t...
BajaGringo commented here on it and then went over to the "El Mexicano" website and posted a readers comment on the article which said (in Spanish)
"About time, well done". Scroll down to the last comentario on the article and you can see it.
The reason why I posted the link a few posts above this to BajaGringo's letter opposing the real estate group that wanted to modify Mexican real
estate laws so that they would be like US laws, with escrows, title insurance, full disclosure and no funds released until clear title was delivered,
was that this fraud perpetrated by La Barre couldn't have been pulled off so easily if Mexican real estate laws were changed.
So here we have BajaGringo cheering that La Barre was arrested for fraud yet strongly opposed to changing the laws in Mexico to stop the fraud.
En este mundo traidor,
nada es verdad, ni mentira,
Todo es según el color
del cristal con que se mira.

Fulano, Maybe, As Some Say
You are no JRBaja, whatever that means since no one bothered to explain the foundation for their objection.
But tonight, you are reminding me a lot of Tim Russert.
Very, very good and thank you.
