I just got back from my daily walk along the pedestrian bridge and SAT malecon and back through town (many hola's, adios! with all the friendly folks here). Thankfully more and more activity, mostly young parents and children and othes out and about. Don't want to get into the politics here but my personal opinion is that it was a dumb CYA decision from the get go. As so the liquor ban, but beer and wine OK that is still in effect. Oh well, we still can enjoy the great weather with the rainy season here and at least limited restaurant and other restrictions being lifted. Fully agree with your perception on the malecon's closure for such a long time. I know I am going off topic but since you touched on the subject, the Dry Law is really stupid and caused people to die buying unknowing tainted liquor. Its also a law easy to get around by using Amazon.mx and others to get what you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a scientific and public health issue, not a political one, or a matter of some untrained person's opinion who doesn't "agree with you". So yes, anyone who refuses to wear a mask in public is severely lacking in intelligence. You are wrong there is a lot of contradiction about wearing or not wearing masks, many scientists disagree. Anyway I use it myself for short outings to a store but will not take a trip by air as long as masks are to be used for the whole trip, no thanks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One generally doesn't change minds by being judgmental or insulting the intelligence of others for the sin of not agreeing with one. 1001x this!

Tingting Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the insults fly when one doesn't fall in line with the "popular" line. Mainecoons has given a lot of facts and information to back up his point. Others use insults and half-baked theories. Hmmm...so difficult to decide who has the stronger case...not. Give me proven data, not speculation and I will listen to you. Give me insults, call me selfish and don't be surprised if I think you're someone with way too much time on your hands, a Mrs. Kravitz, if you will.

Last time I checked, it was the norm for scientists to disagree until proven one way or the other. But, as to your last statement...well, I'll leave that one alone as to not insult. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outlawing anything only makes it more valuable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tlaquepaque officers found a signal inhibitor inside the truck that the subject used so that the unit was not detected by the GPS.
