Gangs tread a careful path between good works and bad works. Some gangs are philanthropic. Some are downright mean. It is often hard to tell the difference between shoplifting and shopping.

They come for the arts but end up in a gang
Gangs of San Miguel de Allende
No one told me about the gangs of San Miguel. You think you are going to visit a quaint, parochial Mexican town in the mountains. But sit for a few minutes in the Jardin and you are soon surrounding by middle aged American gangs demanding your atttention. Something bad happens in San Miguel when Americans come here. Some people call it 'reinventing' yourself. Some people call it 'magic'. Some people call it 'finding yourself'. Some people call it 'opening your heart'. It doesn't matter what it is called it is downright scary. They swarm the Jardin daily in their little gangs trying to get you to join. They set up tables to recruit you. They try to get you to go on walks and house tours. They put on concerts and art shows. They corner you on park benches and at at happy hours. They send their dogs after you. They have places called Raices Bien where stretched women and pretty men entice you to see "gated communities" where some gang members live. I have been instructed to lock my bedroom door at nights because "they" will get you in the night. Be warned if you come

If your picture is on here and you have never taken a picture of a citizen of San Miguel then I will remove it. But if you have ever taken a picture of some "interesting local" to show your friends how 'quaint and colourful' San Miguel is then I think your picture on here is fair game.
