Definitely a case for extreme behavior. That one person allegedly has a safe room in his house in Costa Rica because of the repeated break-ins does not define the entire country, but it does say a lot about the freak who does stay in what could be interpreted as a hostile environment (if the fable is actually true).

Imagine the wisdom of staying in a place by choice that requires one to lock up one's self up!!! Speaks volumes about the individual, not the country. Again, if the fable is fact.

If there was a person who chose to put a safe room in their house in San Diego, does that mean all of the US is so poisoned that no one should live there?

Let's look on the bright side, the paranoid who needs a safe room, will likely meet up with an early demise, if only from the stress of being a paranoid. His house near Hermosa and Tamarindo beaches (spelled correctly) may be available for you when leave SD in the future. That safe room could come in handy for the food that we should all be storing in preparation when the world governments collapse and 4-5 billion people start attacking each other.:lol::lol::lol:

I loved Costa Rica, I was there twice about 15 years apart and I didn't like what I saw in the future.
Been in Mulege over 10 years and I don't like the future I see here but I'm to old to move and start again in another country, this will have to do.
Some people in Mulege are looking at moving to Argentina.

Loved Casados in Costa Rica, Good food,

Gull, what's going on? There has actually been some excellent info in your posts recently (VERY recently!) instead of the usual all-invective, all-the-time towards ALL gringos who would dare to avoid The Gauntlet.


I will not make an exception for you. Stop with the pompous backhanded compliments and you may get a civil response. Report all the postings you want to the administrator. You and the Mennis need to clean up your acts.
