Exaggerate much? I'm on a street corner on fifth street right now and not a machine gun in sight. Sure the cops probably advertise their presence a little leaving their cops lights on 24/7 while patrolling, but there certainly arent many cops wielding machine guns running around either.


On a normal basis you might see one or two. Now if there is an election going on that is a whole different scenario.

Been down here more than in the states since last September, and even had a election during that time. The only guns you routinely see on 5th, are the security guards with shotguns outside the jewelry stores. That's all, now what was annoying about the election is the stores stopping selling alcohol in the convenience stores for the weekend.

To be honest the police presence in Playa IMO is perfect. There's one around if you happened to need one, but there is no intrusion whatsoever.
