Too bad locked messege
Posted by Ani Mac on May 8, 2021, 6:42 pm
This person is a very sick individual and you all may remember the stolen bike on beach story awhile back. The man has been a serious problem in town accosting people verbally and loud. He has had the police called several times and they just put him out of the place at the time. They told me they are watching him but keep reporting this intolerable behaviour and hopefully they will escort him out of town before there is a serious incident. | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

So what local help is available for this "very sick individual"? Shaming on a message board is not going to change anything nor help someone with severe mental health issues. Involving police and escorting someone out of town does not seem to be a viable nor helpful option..... | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

And your suggestion to this problem?!? Have you seen or been around this person? He verbally and physically threatened three of us on beach when we claimed back the stolen bike! It’s not as if there is a social service phone/office available. | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

Couple of things, First it is one thing to post on the message board that there is a questionable person in town that one should look out for. Then you give a description of that person. This is different, this is someone who is living here, your talking about them in indirect terms when you know their name. It's unsettling but so typical of main stream society where communication is ....never mind. His name is David, I am working with him, he in the process of buying a home in Boca de Iguanas. So far so good. I don't want to be in the position of defending any of the actions being mentioned on this board, its not ok to threaten or abuse others. But in general terms suffice it to say he lives to the beat of a different drummer. He did tell me a story of him coming from the PV area by bus and entering into an Oxxo and having some altercation about masking. To the point the police came and took him off the bus. (best I can remember). Wondering if masking had anything to do with the altercation at the book store? Solution..who knows. But certainly not what is happening on this board so far (with the exception of Marie) of whispering, group think, piling on and such bullshit. | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

I think it is ridiculous for you to call it “bullshit” when folks have been verbally threatened and bullied! And that the police have been informed and are watching him! Sorry, marching in a different universe while living on this one does not cut it, and he has my sympathies for,this awkward behavior! But it does not excuse it! And masking was not the problem I or any of the volunteers had...he masks when he enters! Once more you are playing Devil’s advocate, which comes from empathy.....I get that! | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

"Sorry, marching in a different universe while living on this one does not cut it" I can think of a few hundred famous people who would like to have a word with you about that statement. | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

Daniel i am sure you would feel differently if it had been you you threatened on the beach. Maybe not being a male. It’s always advantageous to warn others of this type of behaviour and the other police call was at Palapa Joes not a mask problem either. Hopefully as your client you can be of help to the community. | -----------------------Re: Too bad locked messege

"I don't want to be in the position of defending any of the actions being mentioned on this board, its not ok to threaten or abuse others. " I can post those words till I'm blue in the face but it wouldn't matter, you don't want to see them so you don't. It was mainly the whispering part (not empathy) that prompted me respond to this thread. I haven't fully processed it yet but it seems when you can't say the persons name then maybe posting should be given more thought. Think of the speculation and wrong conclusions that come from that, certainly not good. Bullshit was not the best word to use, I was thinking more about how often that chain of words happens in society at that moment.

If he is moving to Boca, Boca Becci will whip him into shape. The clash is inevitable. | -----------------------
