He is currently chained to a bed because, for his protection, he was moved to an administration area that doesn't have cells.
And to the detractors that can pick out the detail of what caliber a weapon is (they don't make "slug-shot" for that?), but unable to understand other sentences in the articles they quote, he was moved in August, a few days after his parents contacted the U.S. State Department...

Oh, I was thinking more along the lines of much more mundane stuff - car insurance, health insurance, that sort of rot. A simple fender-bender in a foreign country can take on monstrous proportions and untold costs, particularly if you look like the idle rich foreigner with time to dawdle around in foreign countries. Heaven forbid you cause an injury.

Duplicate thread: //www.city-data.com/forum/polit...d-mexican.html

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

Oh, you play the tit-for-tat game?
I suppose we should be expecting drones from Pakistan to attack our people anytime soon, then...

Funny, I've been to well over 50 countries and have never been arrested.
Oh, I know why: Because I follow the laws of the countries I visit. Funny that.
