Mexican cartel violence encroaching on Cabo

Damn. That stuff is scary, especially in tourist destinations. I was in Istanbul a few days before the airport attack. From the videos shown I knew exactly where some of the shots were fired. Eeek.

Well I can scratch Cabo off the potential honeymoon list.

frick Mexico. Worked near Brownsville about 5 years ago and had to go to the Matamoras plant all the time. It's a different fricking world.

Those border towns (on the Mexican side) are some of the most violent and depraved places on the planet. Little to no value for human life.

Glad I read this!! Have a great deal on a friends TS this summer that I was thinking about using!!

What about coke, meth, and heroin?

Legalize weed and a lot of the cartel will not be our problem.

Not true. Legalization of marijuana in many U.S. states has already cut into the cartel's business. Did they just pack up and go home?

No. They increased their production of heroin and targeted people who were addicted to pain medication in the U.S.

That's where this heroin epidemic came from. It's a direct result of defacto legalization of marijuana in the U.S. cutting into the cartel's business.

whatever you say, hoss.

Cabo is the new "Gulf Shores" OT poor vaycay spot. Gotcha.

Only trashy people judge other families who are trying to give their kids/spouse a nice week away.

Anybody that vacations anywhere in Mexico is trash. It is the only foreign destination with nice beaches that they can afford. Middle class to lower middle class demographic. For this demographic, you have Cabo, Cancun, Cozumel, Jamaica, and the DR. All are playgrounds of poor trash who want to say they have been somewhere other than PCB.

Wanna know how I know you've never stepped foot into a four year university?

OR, and just hear me out, or the heroin epidemic was created by doctors prescribing opiates and hardcore pain meds like candy. Oh you have a back ache? Here, take 4 of these hydrocodones a day. You'll be alllll better. Meanwhile, they could puff a little puff of the Devils green stuff, get all of the pain releaving pros without the side affects or horrible addiction that comes with these pills.
