Border thieves in uniform!

[Joe Gress]

Whoa!

[Dr. Cheese]

That's messed up! Next time some European talks about African corruption, I will have to show them that link.

[Sounbwoy]

AMAZING....sounds like home...unfortunately this has become a way of life for many back home in Jamdown...as long as people don't get it twisted...same ol' ish, ANYDAY, ANYWHERE...
Cheese, a MAJOR +1 on that...

[M.Wrenn]

thats completely unbelievable

[Stereo Joe]

It seems like Victor was the only one NOT getting annoyed at the situation. Good on him for keeping his cool and keeping a positive attitude!

Victor Wooten operates a mean cell phone camera as well!

Wow, that stinks. I experienced a similar thing in Kenya.

[Joe.shaffer]

I got jacked for about $100 in Poland for a speeding ticket... I was going 2kmh over.

I spoke with Vic briefly about this and he said that it was a crazy experience for sure.


He's also uploading part two.

Man this is crazy. A friend of mine says it's as bad or worse in Mexico.

The next SMV tour needs AK's for all passengers.

God Bless, Ray

Crazy.

[JAUQO III-X]

Vic said that Marcus was asleep.

[Joe Gress]

I was about to wonder about that.

I'm very impressed at Victors calm coolness throughout. Kinda different and encouraging. Even Stanley (who looks big enough to kick some major ass) kept his cool and stayed calm and reserved. I understand that they aren't there to cause a fight, but it was surprising to say the least that none of them blew their top and were yelling screaming and cussing up a storm.

No way I could've slept. Jacked for over 3K? I hope that wasn't someones personal cash. Or at least they were able to get it back.

I'd have been the one swearing at them from the comfort of my seat on the bus. Swear words are the only spanish I know anyway

God Bless, Ray

None of that would have mattered any way.


Every one on that bus could have come up missing if the officers chose and the reality is, what could have happened if they had not payed the money?


And please this happens all the time,every where. It just happened to be caught on film.

Oh that's nothing, come and try to speed in the netherlands. It'll cost you about double if you're lucky.

"So you want to be a professional musician?" Haha. Hopefully once this is seen by the appropriate people, they'll get their money back, and those 'guards' do some time for this.
