Why Am I Am I Finding That So Funny

My brother actually did this. How expensive is California? Expensive as all hell. Especially in LA and San Diego areas. He landed a job at Hewlett-Packard which is amazing in itself because no college degree these places require now even if you do not really need one. You need a college degree just to be a secretary now. I cannot remember what he said but was making like 60,000 a year and still could not afford to live there in San Diego. So what he did is would border jump because Mexico is much cheaper. He rented a little apartment in Tijuana. He would cross to get to work at HP. Anyway, they saying the Cartel now is sending masked people to Tijuana and robbing all Americans. I think its there way of saying go back to America. It works both ways and why I am finding it funny. People so selfish period and think many places are just going to segregate themselves. Do not need no stupid lawmakers for that. This world is crazy . I am glad my brother does not live there anymore as HP laid him off even though his bosses fought hard to keep him and why he moved back here. He said Tijuana is a lot better than it used to be but if Cartel involved they can always change that in a heart beat.

Cartels make up their own rules and whatever they say, is law. If they decide someone crossed their line, they will kill them in two seconds.

To bad he lost his job. Sad, that even with what he made, the cost of living was still too high.

Yeah its bad here and they are saying many people leaving. Finally saw some decrease in population. Not much, not enough to give us beach front property. Overall i just find this economy sad on the real. They sure screwed up economics.

Yeah, Mexico is dangerous. I remember working with people back in the 1970s who lived in Juarez because it was so cheap but then all the crap started and all Americans came back over. The cartel was killing people back in the late 80s early 90s even here in El Paso.

Yeah I do not think they ever stop. They change their ways because law enforcement from us or Mexico is on to them so they may stop for a little but will adapt and move on to how they always have done. Same story just a different day.

It's a little worse here. Back when whoever the president was that granted amnesty to all illegal immigrants they didn't realize there was a Columbian family holed up here connected to the Columbian cartel and now the feds can't do a damn thing about them. Pisses me off as no criminal should be granted amnesty, that stupid stupid president.

Cartels are very dangerous and you should stay clear of them. It is good that he is home now.

Yeah I have no reason to run into any of them. I met all kind of gangs at the bar bloods crips, FBI informants, Hells Angels Mongals but never anything about the Mexican Cartels. I do not go to bar anymore and all my friends now are goody two shoes.

@crossbones27 I knew a man that was with the Hells Angels. He was a lawyer.

From here it's difficult to guess but I hope he got a cheaper place to stay within the USA.
