Great stories. I had some fucked up experiences dealing with the mexican police in Cancun... the gringo references brought those good old feelings back! I didn't experience the threat of much violence, but I certainly felt exploited everywhere I went. Put a strange new perspective on how good we have it living in the US. Previously boring Sacramento and the Bay Area now feel much more warm & cozy. Now I'm much more content vacationing closer to home, or in Hawaii. I put a much higher value on my safety than I did when I was younger.
