The only honest reporting coming from the West is made by two kids with a camera. That’s the state of MSM media today.

    this reeks of american frat bros slumming it in mexico on a weekend bender chanting USA! USA! USA! at the top of their lungs in public.

    i think that it’s a manifestation of the ruling class’ privilege to do things like this outside their imperial core, secure in the knowledge that they would never face the same kind of recrimination that would cause problems for someone like me despite also being an american.

      Would be a shame if they ‘‘accidentally’’ encountered some cartel.

          Yeah definitely but there have been a few cases when they shagged some yankee tourists who went too far.

      Yeah, and they probably weren’t even arrested, but escorted back to their hotel. I could be wrong, just haven’t heard of any arrests.

        i liked their cameo in one of the recent wolverine movies; it’s nice seeing that they’re as equally reviled by moderates as they are by leftists.
