Ciudad Juarez

[Constellation]

I was stopped leaving the US last night on way to Luxxor. They wanted a Passport and asked me if was was taking $ 10, 000 into Mexico, when I said no, then the officer asked when I thought I might be taking $ 10, 000 into Mexico. I can't beleive they actually use our tax money to pay these clowns. Things got alot worse once at the Luxxor. Paid for the chica, she got pissed at Soraya and Stuart and quit, this was after I paid for her. Left being told I could get a credit the next time but no offer of the return of my money.

I got stopped on the US side and questioned on thursday 10am never saw that before btw it was the free bridge is that the new thing now or what. Also had the time of my life at Anali, there was a new girl Lisette very nice looking, but I went with Daisy.

a speeding ticket costs about $10 to get your plate back, so that's what i'll offer the cop. best use of my time and money.

i have heard of this tactic before but i currently only have one plate. i live here in mx and do not plan on going back to the u.s. for a stupid replacement plate. that, and i was really in a hurry to fu_k my mp regular and had just recently popped a maxifort(viagra).

standing on a steet corner with a visible hard-on negotiating with a mx police officer was a little awkward for me.

looking back on it, i probably could have gotten away with just paying $10.00. but at the time, my raging hard-on just didn't give a fu_k.

i have been caught speeding plenty of times in juarez, probably over 20 times and hardly ever pay the cop any money. knowing that i am in j-town and cops will pull you over for any reason i usually keep most of my money in center console until i leave my car. when i get pulled over they usually go through the same routine. my plates are from texas and they arent gonna though you in jail for speeding. if you speak spanish well and show them that you have no money when they eventually ask you for some, they will issue you a ticket and take one of your license plates. they will tell you that you can pick up the license plate at the police station and they only take 1 plate. i usually let them take the plate, so thats 2 stops before i have no plates then go to the dmv and ask for replacement plates. the replacement plates cost me 5$ last time i got them and i was in and out in about 7 mins at the dmv on lee travino south of i-10.

fuck the policia. ! lol

well, I don't know.

The place I went to did seem remodeled. . .and all the rooms were upstairs. . .(but no cat on the window. All the cats were inside ;-)

But Jackcube1 post said it was his first time in J-town, and he went to Felina.

Re-reading your other post, sounds like maybe you went to the old Corpus, it has changed names, you enter ground level and take girls upstairs to the rooms.

Felinas is just down the street on corner, on second level of a 2 story building, go upstairs to enter.

[Precocious One]

i agree. threatening to file a complaint on them, would probably just [CodeWord140] them off, so they would come back to you with some bogus charge that they saw you pissing in the street, trying to break into a car, etc, and you are now going to jail. they would probably grin at you, and ask you who you think is going to win on this one? i'll bet my money that the cops will win, you lose, and if you really want to play hardball with them, you end up in jail. and they'll still get your money, which is what they want in the first place.

well said.

i got caught speeding yesterday. i don't know who the fu_k goes 30 k/ph here(posted speed limit; residential street) without getting run over. respectfully negotiated with the guy for about 10 minutes and told him $20.00 or take me to jail. a good bluff on my part as i was already late for an appointment with one of my weekly mp girls. hence, the speeding. this is the third time i have used this tactic without a problem. they just want the money and not to be disrespected. respect is a big thing here in mexico. also, by having to take you to jail they lose time, valuable time they can spend more productively by accepting more bribes.

this ticket would have probably cost me $100+ in the states and increased my insurance premiums. like a lot of things here in mx, $20.00 was a relative bargain.

Borunda and Peru is where Felinas used to be, maybe it has changed names?
You had to to upstairs to visit there. There was a large cat painted in a window.

You guys mis-read my suggestions, ask them where Calle Oro is BEFORE they hassle you, tell them you need directions BEFORE they hassle you.
Shit no dont ever threaten them with anything, you will definately make things worse for yourself.

I would think if you run into some bad apples hinting or threatening to make a report just might get you in more trouble. .

Based on Jackcube1's report in Memeber 2479's forum, I decided to try to find Felina.
By RTFF it seems Felina is at the corner of Honduras and Vicente Guerrero.
But the only thing I found at that corner is Eldardo’s (sp) Night Club.
I looked all around that area, but I didn’t find any MP.
Finally one of the locals took pity on me and showed me to Silueta’s MP.
I think it’s on Jose Borunda and Peru, or at least close to there.
It’s large, clean, and had a nice selection. Had a good time.
$40 for an hour.

The info we provide when crossing back into America - Land of The Free - will be stored in a database for 15 years. The best part of the database is this:

"Homeland Security is proposing to exempt the database from some provisions of the 1974 Privacy Act, including the right of a citizen to know whether a law enforcement or intelligence agency has requested his or her records and the right to sue for access and correction in those disclosures."

Other tidbits:

"The notice states that the government may share border records with federal, state, local, tribal or foreign government agencies in cases where customs believes the information would assist enforcement of civil or criminal laws or regulations, or if the information is relevant to a hiring decision.

They may be shared with a court or attorney in civil litigation, which could include divorce cases; with federal contractors or consultants "to accomplish an agency function related to this system of records"; with federal and foreign intelligence or counterterrorism agencies if there is a threat to national or international security or to assist in anti-terrorism efforts; or with the news media and the public "when there exists a legitimate public interest in the disclosure of the information."

I always just say a little when asked if I speak Spanish, although I speak and understand quite well. Don't seem to matter tho, if they intend to rip you off, they gonna rip you off.

One ploy that I have considered, is ask them where Calle Oro is, tell them you need to make a report, but do it before the search you. Then they know that you know the police station is on Calle Oro. Might deter them, might not, won't hurt to try.

Respectfully I have to disagree with you on both counts. While lately I have been shaken down by the cops, especially in the zone west of Juarez Ave, I have not been robbed. The search is really disconcerting because if you have anything on you they will find it or plant it. I would think if you run into some bad apples hinting or threatening to make a report just might get you in more trouble. I don't speak a lot of spanish but I've found when I try to speak spanish in mexico things go better for me. Many/most of the cops are educated so one in the group will probably know English anyway.

On the subject of "Juarez's Finest, " someone on this board once mentioned that when los pinches start to shake you down, among the usual questions about drugs and weapons they also ask you if you speak Spanish and that it is actually a bad thing to answer in the affirmative to that question. Do I have that right? Explicacion, por favor.
