I thought @michaelscottstots or wtfe was @michaelscott from gbcn and when she registered she accidentally registered with her email address. Is this wrong? This is correct. It's a newer screenname over there from a couple of months ago? If I could validate what a nobody I am, i would. But you guys have heard this all before so here I am lol

I tho ght this was addressed? And yes I've missed several parts of this thread. Did you miss the racist gauntlet card part? I might have been laughing and the comment about the newly woke white women. Idk

That post is nowhere to be found, but it did get quoted. Fucking Proboards. If I were a betting woman, I'd put money on her deleting the post herself rather than ProBoards glitching out. it was deleted. Yes quoted. Check Mack history if you need to

You are here discussing my shit. Remember? Read my post history, dummy. YOU, and I do mean YOU, are not that important to me. Your investment in this does not read like you were a nobody on your bmb. You’ve come here for some piling fun and excuse me for being smart enough to recognize that. And as someone who didn’t want to put my precious screen name, I have experience in this fuckery so you’re not fooling anyone. Carry on.

Deleting that is very cowardly, especially from someone who came out swinging that they were owning up to their shit.

OMG I just witnessed a bank robbery!! Everyone start talking about only that now, ok?? And obviously the first thing I am going to to is post about it on the internets!! So, I’m in a car with my friends on the way to PV airport and traffic stops in front of me. There are about 6-7 men, one wielding a large knife, and they are throwing rocks at cars who are travelling in front of us. Then, one guy opens the passenger door of the car two in front of us and jumps in. Guy with knife then try’s the door of the car in front of us. We are all screaming at our driver about whether the doors are locked or not but knife guy runs over and just as he’s about to try MY DOOR, I am screaming just fucking drive!!!! He drives and our door is saved. The first car guy, got jacked - we see as we drive by that his car was stolen by the guy who jumped in his car. And bc I was mind response to this thread, my first reaction was to includenthusntid bit. Dear god that was fucking scary. All our driver kept saying was, “I think banditos. Must be banditos”. Yeah, no fucking shit. I...don’t think Bandidos are big in PV. I don’t believe you at all

I have no reason to lie about this - it is still making me feel whut, I can't believe the amount of fear I felt in those few minutes.

A few weeks ago it was “don’t go to Mexico. The chaos, the crimes the bodies.” Today it’s oh banditos aren’t a thing in PV. What in the actual everlasting fuck? So cars don’t get jacked on PV? Why? Yea. This is... something.

From the state department: Jalisco (includes Guadalajara, Puerto Vallarta, and Lake Chapala): U.S. citizens should defer non-essential travel to areas that border the states of Michoacán and Zacatecas because of continued instability. U.S. government personnel are prohibited from personal travel to areas of Jalisco that border Zacatecas, intercity travel after hours, and from using Highway 80 between Cocula and La Huerta. U.S. government personnel are authorized to use Federal toll road 15D for travel to Mexico City; however, they may not stop in the town of La Barca or Ocotlan for any reason.

I feel comfortable with one foot in the "that's plausible" camp and the other in the "take everything Rip says with a giant grain of salt" camp.

I am feeling really icky about saying Ripper is lying. Maybe it’s a play but I would rather be wrong than say someone didnt experience a traumatic event if they did.

I’m not saying cars don’t get jacked in Mexico. Obviously they do.
But for the cab driver to jump to “Bandidos” who aren’t known to have much of a presence there is suspicious to me.
That’s a specific gang/mc and not a generic Spanish term for bad guy

Can someone summarize what it is that was deleted? I cannot wade back through this thread. Mack quoted it, so it’s in her post history.

I doff what it’s worth, I think that was a fucked up thing to say SweetPotato but I know you’re not the only one who thought so ripper has said she was going to Mexico, if she’s lying that’s between her and the banditos. I’ve seen people share some crazy stories that wasn’t questioned at all because...... THE POSTER IS LIKED. If she had left out that one word I’d feel differently.

They aren’t really a Mexican gang. They just happen to have a Spanish name.
I just find it suspicious that the driver (assuming he was Mexican) would jump to that word.
But maybe driver wasn’t Mexican? Maybe he thought Rip wouldn’t understand if he said a real gang name or carter? Maybe she misheard?
I guess anything is possible

Are we going to nitpick word usage for car jackers? Are we going to. Presume to know the day to day vernacular of that area of Mexico?

Hi. No, not ghosting. I had kid sports stuff last night and MH is away. And quite frankly, I wanted to gather my thoughts before responding again. I was tagged into a thread in which the initial premise had been about posters who were suspected trolls but apparently the conversation has shifted and I see that ThisBitch was apparently called out for something that happened in a Meat Washing thread, which I never read. I see she had then attempted to apologize and was flamed to the point of deactivation. Now the conversation in here shifts to comparing her treatment after whatever transpired to mine after my comments in the UO thread a few weeks back. If there was the elephant in the room, why is it that no one addressed this with me directly until this point? There was not one single p.m. or other conversation happening. So if this is something people wish to rehash with me specifically, the timing and the premise of it had me immediately like wtf is going on in here?? Especially after seeing what went down with this bitch. What I meant by saying here we go with the racist gauntlet is that it seems like posters who otherwise have no history of malicious intent are put through the ringer and then labeled a racist and chewed up and spit out. In some cases it appears to be accurate such as whoever was targeting someone IRL at their workplace and sending offensive items. In all the years I have posted with this bitch, I have never gotten a malicious intent from her and I feel like The board was thirsty for more drama and pulling me back in here. I am all for constructive conversation but this was not the way to initiate it. I’ve been on this board for over 8 years - I have always put it under the same screen name and never had an AE and I consider myself to be a pretty drama free person here. What is also kind of interesting to me is that people I don’t normally interact with in 99% of the other threads here are the first in line when it comes to commenting in this thread and in the UO thread earlier in the month. It’s funny who seems thirsty for drama. I just want to add that no shit, WOC are not here to literally teach a course on how not to be a dick white person but that we learn from each other through our general interactions on this board / take on situations & see how people perceive the same thing differently. It IS up to us to open our own eyes to that and change behavior accordingly. If there is to be constructive conversation happening here, perhaps it needs to occur outside of a thread where people have already deactivated and the first half of it has basically been riddled with drama coming from other boards and talking about people who are suspected to be trolls. I’ve watched people apologize / post honestly and be met with mocking and gifs so what do we suggest, guys? I’m not ghosting. Work has been nuts & ive got plans tonight after work. Will read when I can. You think you and TB were called out for the sake of drama? Seriously? I feel confident in saying that calling out racism isn't fun for anyone. No one is doing it for funsies because the board has been slow or anything. What the actual fuck to that.
