General Info

Now that I have done my due diligence with the PE legal team and found out the nuances and cleared the confusion regarding what is going on in the country and the executive decision that was recently made. So we are currently in a "state of exception" which means that the Ecuadorian authorities have the right to suppress certain rights, they have the authority to search and ask for ID and search without probable cause, and they can also enter property without a search warrant these are the facts, this decision was reached after a presidential candidate was whacked in a political rally. So after this event which occurred yesterday afternoon this executive decision was reached. Where lies the confusion a lot of people even locals are of the belief that the current state is either martial law or curfew neither what the current climate does is give more power to the state to carry out its activities for security reasons.

More importantly, how does this affect our hobby, it doesn't affect it in the slightest sex workers are still playing their trade adult entertainment establishments are still open, for example, I just got out accompanying a guy from this board to one of the most dangerous areas of the city of Guayaquil and the only thing I noticed was cops inside the club with assault rifles so there is a heightened sense of security.

As far as a danger for tourists or mongers this is not the case, the violence is directed towards intergang violence and there are corrupt politicians the guy who got whacked is a vocal opponent of the cartels and named leaders which is foolish. This country is not in a position to confront the cartel's head on the president has focused his efforts on getting prisons under control but the problem is much more significant than they admit and lack resources this is the 345 "state of exception" while comforting to some it has had no effect on diminishing crime the only way to deal with this is not to arrest gang bangers but to kill them or make it so unprofitable to engage in violence that the cartel leaders reign in their own people it's a business after all and they are governed by profit.

As of midnight Friday we have what they call "ley seca" which means sales of alcohol is prohibited because there are elections on Sunday as if the democratic process has been so successful with people sober if anything they probably need to be high drunk or both considering the clown show of candidates that there are out there. I on the other hand shall take the high road and do honours to Picasso on the ballot box I seriously want some suggestions if this election cycle I will draw penis, happy faces, or vaginas serious question?

That's it? LOLOLOL! For people not used to seeing something like that it would scare the shit out of them LMAO! The cartels and turning Ecuador into a violent playing field of Colombian, Mexican, and even [B]Albanian[/B] criminals. Ecuador is in the crosshairs of the two biggest cocaine producers in the Americas, Colombia and Peru, and its dollarized economy is attractive to crooks looking to launder money. I know you don't want to over dramatize the situation, but don't underplay it either. This is a dangerous time for Ecuador which isn't what it was even 10 years ago. Which way is it going to go? We shall see. For the sake of the people who live there, I hope the authorities can tamp down on those thugs and run them out of the country. But, it won't be easy. Ask Colombia.

Murphy so what are we talking about here? You people and yes I am generalizing either coming for business or pleasure you guys are not.

Coming here planning an operation much less actively engaging in activities that will cause undue attention to your punny selves, when and if people want to roll out who do they call? Me, that's it, do people venture out, other than touristy areas no, but even if Ecuador was in peaceful times you should not be doing that anyways unless you speak the language or have families members or friends that can advise you, I have been with the legendary gringo loco who is now 78 in areas where it seems you probably shit your pants and he stood out like a sore thumb, tall old white guy with a beard that rarely spoke Spanish yeah he got attention alright, but as a former corrections officer and who is old by definition, he had something that it seems that you people who are used to the sanitized streets of US or Europe (not so sanitized considering the chaos that is San Francisco, Baltimore) no longer seem to have, common sense, he also listened to my instructions that's it, he is no Rambo he focused on women and shut the fuck up and kept it moving, and it was not just mongering, he travelled the Malecon, he went to other cities with his girlfriend, but he never did anything stupid or took uneccesary risks, however if you are going to walk around like a goof ball, be loud without a care in the world in areas where even local do not roll, yeah you better be well trained because shit is going to hit the fan with a quickness, if perhaps you feel that travelling to Ecuador is by your definition so unsafe perhaps you should travel to the district of Colombia and visit capital hill, the White House, the district also by the way leads in being the highest murder rate in the US as of last fiscal year so truly I don't want to hear it, all of these countries and I do mean all of them are a shit show poverty, rampant corruption, graft, legacy of civil war in some cases started by world power rivalries, these countries are and will be for the next generation of my grandkids fucked up, that is just the way it's point blank and period. If people cannot find it in themselves to reach down their intestinal fortitude and somehow have fun and achieve their goals the most polite suggestion I can make is to stay home, there is nothing more that can be said on that topic.

[QUOTE=DoomBringer321;2845200]This is the kind of logic I have come to expect from people in modern Western culture, by this logic the most dangerous place on planet Earth is Tijuana.[/QUOTE]I just saw a report on what's going on in Ecuador. It showed a police station in Guayaquil with sandbags piled up all over the place, even to cover up the windows. That's not normal. Now, they recognize the seriousness of the situation. So, why won't you? Look, nobody is saying that you can't go outside or that mongers will somehow be targeted. But that's not required. All you have to do is be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Like maybe in one of those puta bars with the armed cops standing around and something goes down. And you get hit in the crossfire. That's all it takes. And interesting that you bring up Tijuana because that's the one other popular place in the world I wouldn't be going to in order to monger right now. I wasn't about to go to Tijuana or Guayaquil looking for some pussy anyway. And what's happening now reduces the chances of that to zero for the moment. There have always been far superior destinations to visit, even before the heightened threats of violence in both places.

And FYI, I'm not somebody who just stays at home hiding out due to my "Western culture" fear as you would put it. No, you see I've been to over 50 countries on five continents my friend (some in active conflict zones so I know what danger looks like), and I'm hungry for more. And I'm able to do more because I don't travel and do things like hang out in places where the crooks are so brazen that they're literally killing high profile (and not so high profile) politicians in broad daylight (requiring the use of bullet proof vests) and hanging their sliced up enemies from bridges to send a menacing message. I don't need any chick's pussy that bad! I'll leave it like I did for the Tijuana threads. Be safe. I truly hope nothing happens. But, I'm not so naive to believe that it can't. These criminals aren't "honorable businessmen" who would never put civilians and / or tourists in harm's way, as was suggested by someone in the Tijuana threads. LMAO! Don't be naive men! And que le vaya bien!

Cane, I posted the Gente Bonita video to show people on this board what happened last March. I think they were targeted, because they didn't pay money. Who's to say that can't happen at the other Chongo places? Gente Bonita had a metal detector and security outside. I was patted down for weapons and showed my passport. That doesn't stop people from coming in with machine guns shooting up the place as you can see in the video if they want to. I don't see this happening in other monger locations, Thailand, Panama, Peru, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, and etc.

If it can happen once, then it certainly can happen again. And that was in Quito. The violence and potential for more is even higher in Guayaquil if you ask me. Let's hope nothing happens (but the threats and attacks on the politicians and authorities continue):

I have been to MDE, Lima and GYE more times than I can recall. In MDE I was robbed twice at knife point {once by a taxi driver } Also in Mayorista I had stuff stolen out of my room by a TLN Chica.

In Lima I was robbed by a Chica at Las Cucardas. One time in GYE I was pick pocketed for a small amount of goods. That was my only problem in GYE. I find that to me all these Country's are the same as far as getting ripped off. If you look at Doom's posts the guy he talks about who he calls Gringo Loco is me. Now I must say that having Doom as a Wing made me feel very safe in GYE.

Speaking of Taxi drivers I have found that the drivers in MDE are the worst as far as over charging, then Lima. In GYE I had very little problems with Taxi drivers.

No BOG is the worst.

This is what I am talking about the last 2 weeks there have been 2 dead Americans because of "scopolamine" in Colombia Medellin by people in order to drug them and rob them, well these humans are not exactly chemical engineers so the doses are off and sometimes people die. I don't see the passport brothers or the greater monger community slowing down coming to MDE to get a girlfriend or pay for play in fact if anything Medellin is becoming the next las vegas, how long will it last who knows, the whole movement to travel to Colombia when did it start? During the height of Pablo Escobar's reign of terror obviously, this had to do with boomers and gen x wanting to get some happy sugar and some pay for play but that did not stop people. So this opinion that some have of "danger" while warranted has to be put in the relative context it belongs.

After much deliberation and somber reflection, I have decided to partake and a most profound civic duty the act of voting in such a respectful democracy in the pics are how serious I take my duties as you can see.

+She pickpocketed me.

So the other day with another member of this board we created an SAS company in Ecuador it is a type of Company (sociedad por acciones simplificadas) or SAS for short. It is basically a type of limited liability company that can pay taxes and can function as a corporate entity it was created for the relocation of the Tucan Bar [URL]https://www.facebook.com/tucanbarmontanita[/URL] to the Pink Iguana which will in the future become some club / hostel / restaurant whatever it becomes I hope that my friends who I have helped start this enterprise with succeed in their endeavors coming soon with videos of the place that I will post on my tourism channel [URL]https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC5KS4_IwkMiMqO7Lf10qEg[/URL] if you guys that are digital nomads and ex-pats and want to create or need help transitioning give us a call we have a legal team at [URL]https://partyecuador.com/[/URL] to help with such adventures. We then proceeded to drink in a celebratory fashion at the bar area of the Hilton Colon in Guayaquil.

The new location of the Tucan bar.
