horrible story. Any updates on this guy?

how good are those numbers if one can't speak spanish

I just found the post, it was not properly named so I missed it. http://www.rockypointtalk.com/threads/mexico-not-blamed-this-time-for-a-change.9195/ I do disagree with Mexican authorities wanting to get monetary compensation for spending their resources to handle this avoidable tragedy. If a...

16 year old AZ girl could not buy alcohol in Penasco to get wasted so she bought the next best thing, 'red bull'. Drinks lots of that and no water, goes into cardiac arrest from dehydration, dies in Penasco. And yes you guessed it, it is all mexico's fault. American exceptionalism at its best...

Easily explainable. Northern sea of cortez and the coastline have very high humidity and airborne salinity levels.

It is well known overfishing in those areas has damaged already stressed wildlife. Coastline used to be very rich with oysters, and with the overfishing the species did not stand a chance. When you harvest too much

$80 us dollars is still a rip off for speeding ticket in mexico. It is closer to 200 pesos less than $18 if you were to follow him to "comandancia" then there you may pay right away or if the person that in charge of processing the ticket you would have to wait and that may take all day long. It...

1997 good year for Penasco. 90s were probably the best years

What a mess

Ever sense I started visiting Penasco, local people would talk about El Pinacate and now with recent events giving even more glorification to that place, I really don't see why all the hype. 1. It is the harshest and driest part of lower sonoran desert but it is not unique, lower sonoran is a...

I record with digital video camera all my interactions with any officials, in mexico or USA. I have a hidden camera inside my car, I press a button and records me and the window, this is to have my own evidence in case officials cross the line because their word is the law. Internal border...

I don't buy it. A marine is aware of location of his firearm all the time and there are huge signs that alert motorists that they are entering mexico, there are US customs standing there and watching you exit USA, it is not an accident.

I haven't read the letter but I can only assume it writes simething like this; Rocky point is very safe, the shooting is between military and drug gangs and have nothing to do with tourism. No american has been hurt so far. Majority of the shooting is done near the tourist resorts but you are...

people that got killed were known cartel members that operated in rocky point for a while. Ask any local person. When a military has to come then that tells you how serious the situation is. This thing is all over the news in AZ, it is hard to hush hush everything.

I know for a fact that there is no mountain lion there, nor gila monster lizard. It is too dry and harsh for these two to be there. They are using pictures of animals that were photographed somewhere else. That's not a nice way to present Pinacate.

I've been hassled every second time I go. One year I was sent to secondary inspection 10 times in the row. They don't need a dog alert to send you to inspection, at the point of entry you don't have 4th amendment right. One of the times, they powered up my laptop and were looking what I got in...

I find it interesting that there are snakes in Rocky Point. Reason is because at least 20 miles from the coast is harsh arid sand, not a good habitat for snakes and lizards. Government claims there are gila monsters in Pinacate, but I doubt that. No one has ever seen one there

And yet mexico haters always talk garbage on how mexico is corrupt but I don't see much difference

Same in this story, Mexican beauty queen rode with some mafia guys, they got all blasted by the military, and military claims even she was armed and had rifle in hands. Case closed. Mexico beauty queen had gun in her hands, was used as a human shield

I will try to be on topic and answer your question. This is going on every day in mexico and Mexicans don't like it. That lady got arrested by the military and not by police. These military men don't know much about legal system. That lady is native of Sonora and spoke with them, what ever she...
