Keep the only drug that you can't Overdose on illegal brehs while letting Mfs openly shoot up Heroin, Meth, Cocaine, etc shyt that will literally stop your heart from beating :gucci:

Worded it incorrectly. All drugs are legalized but weed is the only one that you can do in your own home. All others need to be done in secure location.

Anyone in Mexico who becomes an elected official or police chief and wants to stand up to drug cartels needs to wear a bulletproof vest all the time.

It's like signing up to be the catcher on a baseball team, but never wear a cup. You got to wear the cup.
:mjlol: Reminds me if this.

Why run for office if you don't have a cartel supporting you?
Might have been trying to strong-arm the cartels, running on some anti-corruption line.
Clientalism has lost most of its power there.

If mexico was an African country it would be declared no flight zone, no travel zone and a failed state.

People still vacation there and they kill plenty of tourists yearly :mjlol:

Funny how perception works. If cacs say it's ok it's ok.
We share a continent with them, it won't work like that.
If Naija is having unrest you can bet all of the border countries are too. That's usually how it works.
I was surprised about how many cacs go every year when I'd read about the violence there.
Yeah funny how perception works, but what does a Mayor getting gunned down in Oaxca have to do with beach tourism. That'd be like cancelling a Miami trip because of something that happened in Arizona.
This.
But that's exactly how whole travel advisories are drawn up for African countries.. you just making my point :skip:

Any violence anywhere is enough to throw the whole country under travel advisory but in mexico tourists can die and government officially can die and it's still game on. Nobody declaring them unsafe but they really are. Try being a foreign tourist destination country in any other continent and loosing multiple tourists to violence annually and see if you aren't flagged for life as a no fly zone :dead:
They're a pretty heavy trading and tourism partner, and there are constant advisories for Mexico.

Yeah a campaign he didnt make a single decision so yes it does not make sense imo. I am not saying the cartels did not do it but I do not think the reason you said it makes sense considering he was just sworn in.

I ain't saying you wrong, but didn't play ball? My man was in route to the office. They ain't even give him a chance to suit up
Im speculating at this point but its been done time and time again. Once the victory is secured someone believe that they are in a position of power to no longer need the cartels that put them there. Word gets to people that are also on payroll that dude on some "fukk are they going to do, Im the mayor now". The decision to not do something is made and found out way before the action is required to have taken place.

Example being, a contract that the Mayor Elect was paid to give to a certain person/business. If agreed upon, his campaign will be funded and victory secured. Only the Mayor Elect instead gives the contract to another business instead because he knows his victory is already secured. They cant un-make him the mayor so he doubles up. Used the cartel to fund his campaign and used his position to benefit a third party instead. He was just sworn in, but he won the election and guaranteed mayorship some time ago. Long enough to make deals and have influence. Which means long enough to fukk up deals and use influence the wrong way.

Link?

Also I'm not too worried about the violence. Be low key, only speak Spanish, blend in, and enjoy myself.

Should be dope.

I took all of the pics down not too long ago.

Just got back from Mexico City (DF)...AMA

I saw some Black people and many Americans when I was there. You’ll be fine. There are police everywhere in the nice and busy spots. It’s one of the largest cities in the world, so depending on where you go, people will try to hustle you.

We used Uber or the subway/metro to get everywhere. Don’t use those pink taxis or taxis at all (it’s not safe and they will hustle you). ATMs are safe to use, but have someone watching your back if you use them. Just be aware of your surroundings like you would any other place.

You’ll have fun. It’s a world class city.
