HarryB Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 December 16th is Policemen's Day. I met with our new chief today and discussed a number of issues. On this one , he is asking for small appliances for his officers. I am putting $4000 pesos in the pot. If you would like to help out, please pm me. We know how poorly paid our officers are and the Dellogado administration is working on this , but, not until the first of the year when funds become available.

cbviajero Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 I wonder how many Mexicans will be donating money to policemen on Policemen's Day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryB Posted December 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 Traditionally our Mexican maids and gardeners have been unable to participate in charitable efforts. Yes, we are reaching out to the more affluent/educated Mexicans. Thanks for your concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jguerin Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 Just an idea, instead of thinking: I wonder how many Mexicans will be donating money to policemen on Policemen's Day... cbviajero Why not think how much I will give.

Let's others decide! The point I was trying make is that almost all Mexicans,rich or poor, have very little faith in the policia,or respect for them,and for very good reasons... I'll be saving my donation money for El Dia de los Transitos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cartero Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 I think the days of providing money for nothing are gone. Why not have a Policeman's Party just like the Kissing Cop used to do. Only it was for just him. Provide a typical Mexican dinner and a cash bar while charging 200 pesos for admission? A fabulous opportunity for police and gringos to relate, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryB Posted December 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Not a bad idea. Perhaps next year with more time to plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring to the Degollado administration because I have never heard of a Dellogado admin. around here. If you mean Javier Degollado, I will get my friend Mr P to ask him of the status for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ned small Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 $h1t happens! Lighten up! Careful when you "leap" to conclusions but then again your choice of handles might say it all. Note that my name is "small" which coincidentally reflects my "lightness". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
