Any thoughts on this? Does a person need to be born in MX to serve?

This is a serious question.


Yes, you need to be born in Mexico without any other nacionality. :no:

Lee, have you thought about doing "undercover work" from the law enforcement standpoint?



Zorro, which is Spanish for "fox", is the story of a masked rider who battles the unjust rulers of the pueblo of Todos Santos during the days of Spanish rule. His real identity is that of Don Lee de la Federalee (nee Zorrolee), the son of a wealthy landowner. Lee returns from his studies in Colorado and discovers that Todos Santos is under the command of Capitan Gusta Comer ala Tortuga, a cruel man who relishes in the misuse of his power for personal gain. Knowing that he cannot hope to single-handedly defeat Gusta Tortuga and his troops, Lee resorts to subterfuge. He adopts the secret identity of Zorrolee, a sinister figure dressed in black, and rides to fight El Comidor Tortuga injustice with cries of "Oye, frickin marooon."

Out of the night,
when the full moon is bright,
comes the horseman known as Zorrolee.


This bold renegade
carves a Z with his blade,
a Z that stands for Zorrolee.


Zorrolee, Zorrolee, the fox so cunning and free,
Zorrolee, Zorrolee, who makes the sign of the Z.


Zorrolee, Zorrolee, Zorrolee, Zorrolee, Zorrolee.

The next time you get an idea like that, rent the movie "Serpico". That should dissuade you.

Along this same line...what ever happened to Giuliani advising Mexico City a few years back.....did that just fizzle or did he give up or was he run out of town on a tortilla?

I am deeply moved and humbled beyond words. Touched, too.

I've seen the light. How quickly I've forgotten the politics of police work that I hate. It would be impossible to defend MX against my own -- Nomad Americanos. So, it's settled.

I now don the mask of black to conceal my identity as a Nomad. I fight injustice and corruption and defend MX women and tortugas from peril. Up up and away.

Salute!

I just skimmed this thread.. so this may have been said...

Supposedly one of the things you cant do EVEN after you become a MEx Citizen is get a gun.. run for president, and not sure what else.. so you could be a cop BUYT not carry a gun..

Faster than una bala rapida! More powerful than a Ferrocarril! Able to leap edificios gigantes at a single bound! "Mira! Alto en cielo!" "Es un pajaro!" "Es un avion!" "Aye caramba es el SuperLee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The story of SuperLee relates that he was born Kel-Lee on the planet Krypton, before being rocketed to Earth as an infant by his scientist father moments before the planet's destruction. Adopted and raised in Todos Santos by a campesino and his wife, the child is raised as El Lee, and imbued with a strong moral compass learned while tending sheep. Very early he started to display superhuman abilities, which upon reaching maturity he resolved to use for the benefit of ridding the world of Frickin marooons.

While referred to less flatteringly as "the big pink Boy Scout" by PJC, The Gull, and Beercan; SuperLee is hailed as "The Man of Steel," "The Man of Tomorrow," and "The Last Son of Krypton," by his adoring public on the Internet. As El Lee, SuperLee lives among humans as a "mild-mannered poster" on the Baja Nomads Forum. Yet he continues to fight for TRUTH......JUSTICE........and little baby turtles.

Lee, if you really want to do something that will allow you to be in Mexico and maybe even in your current area or somewhere close, try the Peace Corps. It might surprise you with what places in Mexico they work in and how they pay for certain peoples knowledge, past work experience, etc, etc, etc. Just a thought maybe this is not your cup of tea and since you were a cop the background should be no problem. You could also find out if you could work or volunteer at the American Consul. Being an American who was a cop and jumping that up to being a cop in Mexico would be like pull water in good whiskey it is just such a waste of good whiskey, in your case a good cop. Once out of law enforcement for any time period trying to go back is always hard. Now,trying to do that in a foreign country and learn all of their laws, ordinaces, etc. would be a task that would be extremely challenging to do. Since you were in law enforcement you have been to a lot of choir practice and thus maybe bartender would be a better choice. You could be the local adviser and setup advisor to singles trying to hookup at the cantina. Nay, the cop thing in Mexico would definately be on the wrong side of stress free retirement.
