Taxi Terrorists
Sorry you feel that way. Did I "discourage" you from discussing something?
You know very well what I meant, but does this indicate a sea-change in the unofficial Board policy of generally avoiding discussion of the nastier bits of life in the Zihua area....or at least of those events perceived to have no effect on tourists?
When I wrote last year of the refusal of some Zihua taxistas to take passengers to Troncones, a story that was confirmed to me by some knowledgeable locals before I posted it, and which certainly did affect those who were refused rides, I was dumped-on by at least one vested-interest Board regular who first denied the story, then accused me of always being "negative".
On a number of occasions you have stated that "The Powers That Be" read the Board regularly. If all they read are those posts praising Zihua as heaven-on-earth, the Powers must figure they're doing a pretty fine job.
I believe in Zihua (he said, sounding like Bonasera in the opening lines of The Godfather). Otherwise, we wouldn't have spent half our lives here over the past 9 years, following our first visit 19 years ago. But our fear of being pursued, threatened, harassed and blocked by half a dozen taxi terrorists is palpable. Witnessing the murder that occurred a maximum of 4 or 5 minutes before we pulled into La Comer a week ago hasn't helped either.
