Smart.. real smart.. run off the money. Run off the only thing keeping us from taking a real dump down there.
This has been brewing for a while.
I was honeymooning in Cancun 17 years ago and there was an armed presence around the perimeter of the place. The manager was there and said keep it quiet, but the local cartels are "all about" and often for initiation they come onto the resorts and steal stuff from vacationers - as a "test".
He said they were getting bolder and bolder and it was only a matter of time until they started effecting the tourism. "You may be the poorest of the poor in America, but because you have made it here on vacation, you appear like a King."
Godfather I want you to know that I actually chromecasted this to my TV and watched it. My neighbors and I were currently shopping a dual vacation in Cancun. Thanks for the share..
If you're interested, here's a Reddit thread from that vid being posted. https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comm...ism_in_cancun/Quote:

Downside is that the water on the west coast isn't as warm.
Doesn't Sammy Hagar own property and bars down there in Cabos? I read he may be involved with some dirty mafia types and in trouble :lol:Quote:

Sammy is a cool looking dude.
You red rocker you ;)
Bit of a side bar here...I was looking a vacation spots in the Mediterranean Sea and heard some good things about Malta.
I ended up reading a vacation review on Trip Advisor from a person who had visited there twice. In a huge review, he explained why he would never go there again.
If you're patient and don't read obvious troll planted reviews for resorts....Trip Advisor has some pretty down to earth information :thumbsup:
Me neither! I found that interesting. I went on Expedia and noticed they don't even have any all-inclusive vacation packages there anymore.Quote:
