Katrina may not have helped, but it's ridiculous to blame refugees entirely. I hope I didn’t give the impression that they accounted for all the crime. May not have helped is an understatement, though.

As near as I can tell, there were almost no regular hotels or restaurants with menus before Jewish and other refugees settled in Latinamerica. Before that, you'd travel with letters of recommendation and stay at somebody's house, if you were upper class, or with the mule-drivers at the posada if you weren't. What they were cooking that day is what you ate. Think about that next time you rampage through Tijuana. Also think about that the next time you accidentally drink the water and Tijuana rages through you.
