I don't think it is a matter of scaring people, just keeping them informed. I know that when I lived in Spain my family and I had the pulse on what was going on in our area, most of which never hit the media. Primarily for reasons of tourism. Most of it was minor but La Eta was a significant threat and we knew the areas where Americans were well advised to avoid. And we were always honest with tourists.

Too bad it is not the same here. There are way too many folks on Nomad with agendas that prevent them from acknowledging the negative change that is occurring presently in Baja. These people, for their own reasons (maybe they are blind? or don't see it coming?) chose to ignore any danger at all. As I am an expert in this area I know that crime waves come and go. Depends on who is around, what they have tried, what resistance they have found and what successes they have found etc etc etc. And crime can be contagious because low lifes talk with low lifes and give each other ideas...

At any rate, it is always nice to read posts by people with a lot to lose ..i.e. Pam from Loreto and Shari from B.Asuncion (among others)..who atleast acknowledge that, for however long, things are a little different right now. I know how people are, how they want to think they are safe and love to be told things are ok. Maybe there are simply those on Nomad that chose to ignore the storm on the horizon. It would just be nice if there were more credible people on this website because there are some really nice people asking a lot of really good questions and they deserve an honest answer.
