Canada takes the Mexicans the USA won't. Very accommodating immigration policies. They embrace immigrants and set people up with ID papers, housing,
food stamps and medical care while they go through the full immigration process. We know people from TJ who moved to Montreal and they feel like they
landed in heaven.
So let's see... "Bad" Mexicans are allowed to emigrate to Canada (at least get their foot in the door for a few yeas). They call their Bad Boy
friends- who set up the only business they know how to show up on time for and manage well- moving drugs.
Are Canadians really surprised? Or just surprised their open door policy bit them in the butt this quickly?
I don't hear Canadians complaining about the huge improvement in the food with the influx of Mexicans (and Asians). WTF is a Beaver Tail and who
would take that fried rubbish over a Carne Asada Burrito from Roberto's?

When I was growing up in New York in the 60s, There was no Mexican food anywhere. There was a sizeable Puerto Rican population around, but the PR
cuisine was really nothing like Mexican. My first, so to speak, encounter with what was considered to be Mexican food was a taco from Jack-in-the-Box.
In those days, that meant some weird thing containing mystery meat and spices that was deep fried and served almost/ maybe dripping. I feel privileged
that I was, later in life, to be able to experience real Mexican food.

And, in NY in the 60's, it was all we had! But, in retrospect, we ate alot of garbage at 2 AM. Can't tell you how many White Castle hamburgers, if you
can call them that, I ate after a night in the bars.
Edited for stupidity among other things.

must have found something unsavory.
There must have been other things happening in the area at the same time. There were police vehicles, lights and sirens, going every which way on
HWY-1. |
Oh, I read about that this morning in El Vigia, but I didn't save the link. Some 40-something year old "horiculturist" was gunned down while driving
westbound on the road to La Bufadora. He had a prior criminal record in the US. They arrested some guys later in the day with a 9mm automatic weapon.

Here's a translation [Google?] from the Vigía article. I ripped it off from the Punta Banda Newsletter.
----
A loose translation from today’s El Vigia:
A horticulturist was put to death Wednesday morning in the lower town of Maneadero, is reported had U.S. criminal records.
The deceased was identified as Gildardo Olmos Anaya, 40 years old and was found inside a gray sedan type vehicle with California plates, that was a
few yards from a popular resort area.
Witnesses said around 6:00 pm Anaya Olmos was traveling through the road leading to La Bufadora, with east-west orientation when at km 1 +500 is
paired two units, one white colored panel and a sedan green.
Moving vehicles with the gunmen triggered a gun in at least six occasions, two of the bullets hit the driver's door and another the rear fenders.
Critically wounded, Gildardo Olmos came down the asphalt ribbon with intent to escape their attackers, however, lost control of the drive and crashed
into a wall, where he was killed.
The murderers fled the scene on the highway west-east direction, quickly took to the streets were Cantu and proceeded north along the road
Transpeninsular.
Elements arrived at the place of Expert Services of the State Police (PME), who found six spent shell casings on the 9-millimeter asphalt ribbon, also
arrived on the prosecutor to certify the death.
Through a press release, the Attorney General of the State (PGJE) Gildardo Olmos reported that Anaya had U.S. criminal records.
Residents of the area where the killing occurred Olmos reported that Anaya had a year living on the ranch Magana, and who had allegedly violated his
probation in the American union, as he was accused of committing crimes against health.
With the intention of protecting the place of the attack police officers arrived Municipal, State Preventive Ministerial State, Federal and the
Mexican Army.
The body was brought to the facilities of the Forensic Medical Service (Semefo) for necropsy law.
Detainees with gun
At around 4:00 pm yesterday, in the same area where he was executed Gildardo Olmos horticulturist Anaya, Municipal Police officers arrested four
individuals for carrying a 9-mm submachine gun, supplied with six cartridges.
The police report indicates that the suspects called Jesus Alejandro Magallanes said Sainz, 22 years of age; Forty Alejandro Guerra, 33, Gilberto
Morales Ledezma, 18 and Jesus Francisco Gonzalez Arce, age 27, all residing in the Maneadero lower.
The assurance came about when the police officers attached to the town to tour the Salitral surveillance and observed the driver of a vehicle
traveling north-south orientation did not observe a high drive.
Lack of Traffic Regulation led to the military intervened unit, once performed a review body to the crew and inspecting the vehicle found the gun.
The detainees were turned over to the prosecutor of federal law.

It's really no secret..............I believe Jack in the Box was owned by RALSTON PURINA at that time or shortly, thereafter. If it was after, maybe
an exec had been to one and realized that the profit margin was much greater at JITB than OTC dog food.
So, they bought the company.
I have eaten a few of them in my time. In South OC in the early 70s, they were the only "restaurant" open after midnight and we were, uh, hungry late,
quite often.
