“Why Did The Chicken Cross the Road? Because He was in Tijuana” by Kinsee Morlan

Most people squirm at the thought of visiting Tijuana.  What about the hassle at the border?  What about the corrupt police? And what of the violence and danger?

I like to tell folks that there’s nothing they can’t handle and that the rumors they hear are often untrue and overblown. Tijuana is just like any other city, I tell them, it’s got good parts and bad.  But then reports like this one about a recent string of professional robberies carried out on American tourists  come out, and I’m reminded that I may be a bit naive in my summation.

I guess I’m going to have start telling folks to come, but be careful.
