Posts: 2624I have noticed yesterday that they put up some new lights in the old shoppinglll by the pedestrian bridge. Not sure how long they have been there. But I am glad there is more lights there. Also noticed that some new video cams. The question is how often the police monitor the video cams. My impression is that video cams are not actively monitored by LE. There is video cam's on Roosevelt st in National city and on El Cajon blvd. The girls in NC ignore the video cam's for the most part.

They finally let the dumb American out of jail after a year for getting caught with a gun going into Tijuana.
Nothing ever happened with that the, they had an article a few weeks ago about it because it had been a year and the wife had pretty much moved on. To me I was more suspicious about her and if she had anything to do with it either by accident or on purpose. Many things didn't make sense to me. Also that whole thing about the police could of been a complete lie by her. The husband seemed to be very comfortable in México and if the police were looking to do something they would of done it then not come look for the guy at his hotel.

Posts: 2624I agree bringing a badge to Tijuana is unnecessary. You will not have any problems beyond being stopped unless you have drugs or doing something illegal. The key is to take your money out of your wallet if the cops do stop you. But even then the police have been searching far fewer tourists especially if you are on foot. This is one of the main reasons why I do not drive in Tijuana.

The one thing I have always wondered since that visit is if he had problems with the US officials because this was after 9/11 and they had installed the metal detectors.

Asking for a friend who will be traveling to Zona Norte with me next month. I've been several times, but his first. He is a retired cop, but still maintains a "commission" and badge. Is there any advantage or disadvantage for him to carry his badge with him? I don't think he plans to flash it around, but he thinks it might be helpful if there are any encounters with the local law enforcement.

Posts: 22I never said the AMPS were legal, just open for business. Get on some of the USA Escort forum sites and you will see what I'm talking about. Are you at risk of getting busted? There's always that chance. Are you at risk of getting assaulted or killed in Tijuana? Also a possibility. There is nothing in life that is a certaintity, but death and taxes. I pay my taxes and death awaits me. In the mean time, I intend to life!
FYI, my knowledge of the AMPS is not just reading about them on sex forums!

I would be surprised if the planes empty going back since lots of business men are looking to do more business with Mexico. Also it's still easy for legit tourists to visit the US since the US has decreased the number of flights from China. Also the flight that's supposed to start in April will go from China to CDMX. But when leaving will stop in Tijuana but they didn't specify for how long. Something about the high altitude of CDMX not allowing the plane full to make it directly to China. So it has to stop in Tijuana and I think get full of fuel to make the long return.
I think the flights starting in June will be directly to and from Tijuana but it was supposed to start last year but keeps getting delayed.

They even threatened to close PedWest down again if it couldn't be secured. They are also having problems with more migrants crossing in the eastern part of the city closer to Tecate.

Better to just leave, Mexico & overseas if it's in the cards for you.
