johanson Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 As I posted on Saturday, above, and is still happening today, there seem to be many fewer cohetes being fired off these days than in previous years in the greater Ajijic area.

kimanjome Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 New federal laws about the cohetes. Now cohetes only allowed to be sold by the churches, and set off between 8 am and 9 pm, or something like that. Of course, the law hasn't been completely enforced (no need to piss off the parishioners) yet-- and even so, what is the poor priest to do, rush around trying to find the culprits in the dark, wee hours? However, it appears Chapala is now beginning to move towards enforcing the law, poco a poco, per the insistence of the head honchos in Guad. These things can take years and years, but progressive Zapopan regs slowly trickle down to other areas, as the percentage of educated, middle-class Mexican populus grows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmh Posted November 29, 2019 Report Share Posted November 29, 2019 The man setting off the cohetes in front of the church is part of the church or paid by the church so the government can control this guy.. but if people decide to ignite cohetes there is not much the government can do except fine them if they know who does it.. I too think there are way less cohetes than there used to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
