    'destabilizing' groups ... LOL

    In the first world countries people are looking forward to the break.

    In TDC, people are scared to go out of the house for fear of police sponsored moto chorros hiding in wait with revolvers and determined it's YOU or your MONEY!

    I've become accustomed to my annual Argentinean riots at Xmas time.

    I'll feel a little lost without them. Would have been even better as I'm on Mexico and could have found out what Mexicans think of them.
