Not sure, that’s a stumper, but he should be easy to track…
Hopefully he’s not in some kind of jam…
For not having any toes, he sure likes shoes!
Wow…do you make fun of everyone or just this fellow? Sincerely hoping he finds his way home or a way to let his loved ones know he is okay.
??,
We we we… …also hope he makes it… …all the way home…
???
Where would you suppose this man’s home is? How stupid is it that you think that an indigenous person needs to go anywhere else but the continent his ancestors arose from the primordial earth. Its pretty clear this man is from indigenous roots brother
Were no longer going with the colonizers narrative bro..
Racist much…???
You have jumped to the wrong conclusion…
My sense of humor is much more immature than you have given me credit for…
It isn’t really funny, bit it kinda is…
Rock and Learn…

I guess I should have spelled it…
“Wee wee wee”
My bad…?♂️?♂️
Yeah because a normal person with compassion cracks jokes at a missing kids expense. When there is a family hurting and scared about where their child is….. I think I hit the nail on the head with you..sound like you aren’t used to the snap back …better get used to it.
A 23 year old kid?
The man is an adult.
The message was, “we hope he makes it home”…
Makes no difference where his home is …
Please point out where you have offered compassion, or even a normal response…
As far as hitting the nail on the head…
You missed badly, actually.
You implied that I suggested he leave the Country.
That was ludicrous.
Stick to rough carpentry, you are leaving deep hammer marks.
Someone 23 years old is an adult in every culture except the new participation trophy culture some are pushing to all our detriment.
Yep, I saw a elementary school kid in a baseball uniform, and his dad, in ‘In and Out’, and I asked them “who won?” They sort of looked at me like I didn’t know that they don’t keep track of that sort of thing in kids baseball anymore…
??
Why even call it baseball, anymore?
Might as well call it “NambyPamby”.
A “farm” in Honeydew? Stated that way, it all sounds so bucolic, so genteel, so benign.
Honeydew farms?
Assuming he usually kept in contact it’s ominous he hasn’t been heard from in a month. Potentially another in a long line of lives lost while working in the underground economy.
Farm? Gimme a break, let’s call a spade a spade. It’s a dope grow.
What is wrong with people? Such disgusting remarks from disgusting people with fake names. I hope this young man is ok and his family is reunited.
Mostly nothing is wrong with people who post here. Some have crazy ideas about folks like this missing young man. I am don’t consider I have anything wrong with me, but I do wonder where his toes went on one foot. The missing toes smack of the drug cartel punishment for something he did wrong. I do hope he will be found and reunited with his family.
With all those toes missing he probably walks with a big limp.
Yeah, that would be a good reason to try and flee and find sanctuary if your child was losing toes to violent shakedowns from gangs. Who are funded by cocaine dollars from noses of frat boys….. It also could be a sign of diabetes
You know most asylum seekers haven’t done anything wrong…just maybe didn’t comply with a gang member’s demand for money because of poverty. Or were sexually assaulted or their lives were threatened. Its baffling to me how we continue to blame victims of our own destabilization of South America with our consistent intervention to keep our business allies in power. Despite gross human rights violations, our country has supported vile regimes for decades. Think drugs, beef, oil, and yes now even balsa for wind energy etc
You are correct about diabetes, but in this case, he looks perfectly normal with body weight. I still think it is drug cartel related. They come and go in and out of our county like blow flies. Reading the news just shows me when you find the murdering cartel you find chopped up bodies and dead bodies. In lots of areas in Mexico even the police are scared of these jackasses.
