I think here in Colorado much more than 65 Americans have killed in 2011 - better get to Baja - much safer

The population of Colorado is 5,029,196; 99% Americans.
The population of Baja California is 3,155 070; 99% Mexicans.
See if you can figure out where your logic failed you.
Here's a hint: Mogadishu, Somalia is one of the deadliest cities in the world. Last year no Americans were killed in Mogadishu. So is Mogadishu much
safer than Colorado?

Let's exclude anyone involved in drugs. Exclude brown skin people and Asians from the US.
Crimes of opportunity target white people, Americans, who are viewed as monied. Kinda like racial profiling.
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

AfroAmericans in Tijuana
For those who don't (or have not) lived in Tijuana, I don't think people realize how many AfroAmericans are moving to TJ as they can't afford the cost
of living in San Diego coupled with receiving public assistance.
I lived in Tijuana in a complex with 2 buildings and in the past 3 months 1/3 of the complex is now occupied by the above and all are on some type of
public assistance. Unfortunately both complexes have suffered, i.e., trash everywhere that wasn't before as well as kids yelling and screaming in the
buildings, petty thefts, etc. so I decided it was time for me to move (as well as others). Several times when I have been downtown on Revolucion I
have encountered young AfroAmericans begging/asking for $$$ which I think tells you the state of things across the border for certain socioeconomic
groups.

For one, I never, ever used the word 'all'... so paint away! Thanks wooosh for pointing out it was a drug runner (and his color didn't matter)... That
he was so selfish to do what he did, with a 10 year old son speaks volumes.

I am thinking drug runners with American citizenship.... |
You mean, like Robert Paul Frey and Gary Louis Barlow? Their bodies are not even cold yet and you have already insulted their lives and thrown them
under the bus, just to protect your image of Mexico.
Que poco madre. |
The only poca madre is you continuing to post on this board, after being banned repeatedly under several diferent aliases fulano.

Don't you have to have a state address to get public assistance? Don't they periodically visit said address? Maybe you should turn them in?

I don't like to discuss anything with loner loser crazies, who continuosly get banned from message boards, because they are bitter and agry about
Mexico, probably because of a failed relationship. People who don't have lives, who spend all day spewing bitterness because thats the only thing they
have. People who waste days, hours, weeks, sitting in a computer creating websites and blogs full of lies to "get back" at imaginary internet enemies.
The sad thing is, you don't know your crazy and on your way to dying a loser loner whos only contact with people, is tru fake names and aliases on the
internet.
I am actually not angry at you, i realize you are already living in hell, so i feel sorry for you.

I think many would be shocked as to how many Americans who are on government assistance are now living just across the border. The complex I lived in
3/4's of the people are on public assistance...funny but the Mexicans who live there all had jobs...it was only the Americans. And many of these
Americans were evicted from the complex at some point in time as they couldn't even afford to live in Mexico!
All one has to do is have a U.S. address with a street name...from what I understand many of these people use relatives addresses and pick up their
checks. Fortunately I don't live there anymore. These people barely survive in the U.S. and they are in the same situation in Mexico. Many of these
people were homeless in San Diego. What irritates me even more is that it is always the AfroAmericans who say the Mexicans take away their jobs in
the U.S. and now they are moving across the border!

Geeze. 4 posts and nothing but complaints. Mostly about AfroAmericans and trash problems you're having. What's the problem? You
don't have to live with that population so why don't you stop slamming them? You're in Mexico. Blame the Mexicans -- or else move up North.
Try Bakersfield or Fresno.
Don't think the term AfroAmerican ever caught on. Sounds funny to me. What do you call Mexicans?
