Six police officers fired after story of shooting at President Solis’ home unravels

I guess we need to realize that these people haven’t been driving that long, in the scheme of things. Most people haven’t had that many years of actual experience as we , from the USA and other developed countries have. I was driving down a mountain road at night–pitch black- and came upon a Tico , going in the same direction,riding a motorcycle-of course without a tail light of any kind, and having his helmet up, talking on a cell phone and driving slowly–what an idiot. Sometimes I think these Ticos just want you to kill them and put an end to their miserable lives. What else would make someone do such a stupid action? Another time ( when I 1st arrived here and didn’t know any better) I was riding back from the beach at night in the back seat of a car driven by a Tico. He had to get something out of the trunk so he STOPPED the car —DEAD stop in the road, on a black night on a curving mountain road–stopped the car and got out to retrieve something from the trunk—well I was so scared by this that I began praying in earnest that some big truck wouldn’t come barreling around this blind curve and wipe out my life– I could care less about any of the idiot Ticos– I wanted to survive. I mean who could care about them continuing to live–after witnessing their careless attitude about their life and the lives of others–especially mine– which I hold very dear by the way, I really couldn’t care about their lives–especially after witnessing their idea of the value of life– they obviously didn’t seem to hold much value on continued living so why should I? Watch them sometime when they are driving and in front of you they approach a blind curve and pass the car in front of them–you almost want to see an oncoming car -isn’t that a crazy attitude? Wishing a car would actually come from the opposite direction just as the idiot Tico has made his careless passing move –direct into a blind curve? I guess it is rather a mean spirited attitude–especially if the person coming would be a responsible , conscientious driver, but then again, how many of those actually exist in Costa Rica? Only the few Gringos who haven’t lived here that long. Because I have found that when Gringos live here long enough they start getting some of the asswipe traits of the Ticos rubbing off on them. I admit that I have seen some of the low life traits creeping into my life, until I hopefully catch myself and get rid of the evil thoughts. LIke during a purchase , for example, when you are given the opportunity to cheat on payment or such– because sometimes you will find yourself dealing with a Tico and he gives you the opportunity and the option presents itself to actually go ahead and act like “them”. That is the time to shake it off and realize you are NOT a Tico and catch yourself before you start slipping on the slippery Tico slope to becoming like a Tico. Warning Warning Warning–don’t let it happen guys—keep your good, honest traits which were taught to you when you were young and living in the USA where these good traits are taught to us by our parents and other adults either by example or actual teaching. You see the ticos teach their children to lie and steal–oh yes it’s true! Children watch as their parents lie and steal and cheat every day in their young lives. They learn that it is ok to lie– didn’t you just see Mommy lie and daddy too? Didn’t you see how daddy took advantage of that person in that exchange? Didn’t you see daddy lie about what just happened> Yes it’s sad but true. These children learn from watching the despicable behavior traits of their parents–which have been passed down from their parents and so on. A fascinating example of these evil traits became apparent to me as I watched a television documentary about some missionaries who came to some south American tribe who had never seen a white man before. The missionaries tried to show them how to conserve the supplies they brought–only to see the natives carelessly use it all up at once, wasting much of it. And I watched as the natives tried ( unsuccessfully) to trick the missionaries into drinking some water which they had poisoned so the natives could kill them to steal whatever they had. And the whole time the natives had a big smile on their faces while they tried their evil treachery. So I learned that this evil purpose seems to come from the ingrained evil present in the natives from the inception, They didn’t learn these evil ways from the white man, they had them already. Well I thought it interesting – the comparison with smiling Ticos who will steal from you and cheat you –all the while smiling and hiding their true evil thoughts and actions. It seems it comes direct from the evil implanted in their hearts from day one when they were birthed in the jungle and it hasn’t changed over the centuries of exposure to better cultures. Does anyone ever think that these people have some kind of gene which makes them stupid? Think about it. Have you ever wondered why they are so stupid and do such idiotic things? Food for thought. Some reader named Frank just informed me that I should only write positive things on these posts. Well give me some positive information and see what happens. Because I see a lot of negative , incredibly stupid actions going on and so I write about what I see. I was in the back of a Taxi in downtown San Jose and thought about punching the taxi driver in the back of the head as he drove his taxi almost into the legs of some poor hapless woman who was just trying to cross the street ( with the crowd) he was laughing as she scrambled to get out of his way. I swear if he had hit that poor defenseless woman I would have done what I could to end his asshole actions permanently and FAST! Why is it that the Ticos get so pushy and mean as soon as they get behind the wheel of a car? Possibly because it is the only time these cowardly asswipes feel confident enough to confront someone with their true feelings? This is when the true character of the average Tico comes out for all to see– when they are in the drivers seat of a big car.
