You seem to have lost the train of our discussion. Nap time?Who cares? Mexico is for Mexicans. Their criminals, their problem.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-53632616No I'm not. Legalizing weed isn't going to solve the immigration problem or their gang problem. They'll just switch to other crimes like kidnapping or hijacking oil or shaking their own people down for protection money.
Wow, that's a program that could work here in the U.S.. Steal the phones, approach the kids at random and offer them the deal. Put the pickup point offshore.https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-53632616
This is how the shakedown works
A kid walks into a business and hands the owner a burner phone. The business owner is told how much they’re going to pay. If they accept (my cuñado, mechanic shop) they give you an account number and you send the money. In his case they started at 9k pesos a month. A month goes by and another kid with a phone shows up. 25% bump. Rinse and repeat. Until you close the business and relocate your family.
Another neighbor, same thing except the owner rejects. Two days later 4 armed guys show up heavily armed, send everyone out of the store, and shoot the sh!t out of the store. Then you get another phone call...
If you do business here, you pay.
Hey school teachers
The bad peoples obtain access to the teachers union database. You’re contacted at your home by a kid with a burner phone...
You work for the phone company, light company, PEMEX, same same.
Isn’t technology grand!Wow, that's a program that could work here in the U.S.. Steal the phones, approach the kids at random and offer them the deal. Put the pickup point offshore.
That's a nice beachfront home you've got there. It would be a shame if a drone passed over and dropped a load of roaches or a biohazard or a firebomb.
Until recently. Yeah. Me too. I asked my wife if I should handle it or her. She said “el gringo no puede entender el trato de un verdadero hijo de su chingada madre. Yo sí.” She’s right.Aren't you really isolated there? You will find out who harmed your dog. Im sorry about your dog.
Actually, a few sheriffs in south Texas have been convicted for involvement with the drug trade coming from Mexico. Harbinger? I would imagine such trade involving Cali law enforcement is much more opaque to scrutiny...or has there been convictions?None of our business. Mexico is for Mexicans. They can handle their own criminals as they see fit. If they want help with that then they can ask for help.
