Well said....I still remember the days when you could drive by beaches like this....with NOBODY there. If you liked what you saw just set up camp for
a day or two....and then leave. No need to "own" the land and build houses to keep others out. The good old days....

I remember when there was "Spring Break" in Rosarito too. I remember when all the clubs were open and the restaurants were full. Young people were
partying like crazy and it was the #1 Spring Break destination in Mexico. Expats used to gripe about all the kids and bad traffic and how they
avoided the area during Spring Break like the plague. Now it looks like the plague really did hit. "Spring Break" tours don't even book Rosarito
trips, many clubs are closed and even some favorite ex-pat restaurants like "Las Mananitas" have been shuttered for good (they used to host free
English classes there for expats). Over 800 expats moved from Rosarito for good the past few years. You don't have to go all the way to Playa
Buenaventura to see blight, it is everywhere. And it won't recover in our lifetime, in fact- it is getting worse.

rosarito practiced poor public planning, the city grew with crappy construction, poor layout, bad infrastructure. it is now ugly town with raw sewage
ruined beaches. it could have been a pretty seaside town, now looks like crap, very sad...
the crime wave that overtook mexico in last few years was a national problem. the NY Times and LA Times carried articles in last few days about
extortion and kidnapping in Mexico. the picture is bleak. mexico needs to really kick itself in the balls and take care of its problems.
unfortunately, the smart and rich are fleeing the country,... situation is sad... while crime wave scared tourists away from cities, some of the
rural areas are still OK
but look on the bright side,.. the obama daughter is in mexico (oaxaca) right now on spring break, so there is at least one plane load of spring
breakers this year!

You got it right Goat. It's still a shame for all of us. Talk about killing the goose that laid the golden egg--- and then they ate it too.

Two more of Raphael's men are in jail. Total count is now four.

Una pregunta: Is the legal doctrine of RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR adopted in Mexican Law, as it is in the U.S.A? In other words, in Mexico, can an employer
be held liable for the actions of his employees, performed while involved in activity related to their job?

If you are asking if Raphael knew what his employees were doing or if he was directing it from a distance, the answer would be no. It was me who told
him.

Wonderful news...
Just wondering are you guys spelling Rafael as 'Raphael' as an insult, in the same way Bush-1 mispronounced Saddam (an Arab insult) during the Gulf
War?

Doubt it.  The pronunciation doesn't change in the two spellings.

Ok Rafael, what is going on? I supported you regarding the documents you displayed on your
web site indicating the property in dispute was yours! Is it in fact true you do not own the property? Does the property in fact belong to Olivia? You
now have employees convicted and in jail for using firearms to take away someone else’s property by force. Does the property belong to you or not? I
realize this forum is not a court of law but since I supported you regarding your documents, I would like an explanation, as I am sure others who
supported you also would like one. I am not ashamed I supported you because it appeared you owned the property, but if you in fact do not own it I
need to apologize to the rightful owner for my support of your documents and delete all of the gifs I made in support of them. Rafael, I would
appreciate if you would come back to explain your side of this.
