Through a series of clever constitutional changes, The Belizean Prime Minster – Dean Barrow – has solidified his power as absolute as any dictator. So when he gives an order, it is obeyed, whether within the bounds of law or not.
For example: In mid April last year Barrow told the GSU – “Get Arthur Young at all costs”. Two days later Arthur Young was handcuffed, with his hands behind his back, and was shot and killed by the police.
The Prime Minister has enormous power.
He is also enormously pissed off by my writings and disclosures – specifically corruption within his cabinet and more specifically my statements that he personally ordered the murder of Arthur Young. Last week, the PM met with the Police Commissioner and the heads of each police department and ordered – “Find whatever evidence is necessary to name McAfee as the prime suspect in Gregory Faul’s murder”. This is solid, unquestionable information.
Immediately the police began to round up my past employees and hauled them in for interrogation. In Belize, the quickest way to frame someone is to haul in their friends, neighbors or acquaintances and, using various forms of duress, force them to sign statements implicating the person the government wants to frame. It seems that this is going to be their chosen method for getting me.
I anticipate some kind of announcement by the police department soon. I am not worried, but it is annoying.

John , when there is a change in government ,would you consider returning to belize? It,s inevitable there will be a change ,that being said ,would it make any difference. And would you consider running for prime minister,regards and best wishes james craig

Thanks Blue,
This was the first time I read any Belize comments section and saw words of praise and love for a gov’t official. He sounds like (he was) one hell of a man. What a shame he wasn’t able to have someone follow in his footsteps. The venom towards the current and previous governments (when reading comments, mostly from anon.)
contain a completely opposite sentiment to the feelings expressed for Mr. Price.
.
Hmmmmm. Katie,
I know I don’t know anything, but:
.
**According to a family friend, on Wednesday, September 14, Price slipped in the bathroom at his home on Pickstock Street sometime between 5:00 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. He suffered a head injury which reportedly caused the formation of a blood clot in his head.
.
Requeña told us on Friday, September 16, that he was in total shock that this had happened. He said that this was the second time that Price had fallen outside of his caretaking hours, which were from 8:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Mondays to Sundays.
He explained that Price lived alone upstairs of a two-storey house, and his sister resided in the bottom flat.**
.
The story goes on to say he died of complications from that head injury. Contrary to your statement, I couldn’t find anything about mental incompetency. Logically, one would imagine, if he lived alone at 92, and had only a part time caretaker, he was, in fact, bastante competente after all, at
least before his head injury.
February 25, 2013 at 6:02 pm
where are you BB&B? I was laughing today because ‘our’ new blog is all fancy, and a link opens in a new window and everything, lol. I made a mental note of how much you would like it. Have you given up here? I haven’t seen you in a while.
Don’t we all believe JM wouldn’t leave without saying good-bye? Put on your ruby red shoes, close your eyes, and click your heels. I’ll meet you in Oz. 😉
onlooker….do you have ruby red shoes? 😉
February 25, 2013 at 5:54 pm

click my name. We’ll be there if
and when this one isn’t.

Hey your blue too! How did that happen?
February 21, 2013 at 2:22 pm
I take that back. These comments CAN be copy-and-pasted. Before, that was not possible. I thought that was brilliant… But, Comment Recinded.
February 21, 2013 at 2:19 pm
You’ve noticed that all these comments are unable to “Copy-and-Paste,” folks… It will all be edited, and sifted through by our Main Character for later use…

Blue-George Price died peacefully in his sleep in his 90’s, two days before Independence, Sept 21. He was buried, not cremated. And he was not compos mentos enough to reveal anything before his passing, let alone a speech about economics.
February 20, 2013 at 11:09 pm

what adventures she’ll be able to share when she gets back then….hey, a new post !!!! 😉
February 20, 2013 at 8:55 pm
Ok I’ll start :
John McAfee quotes
“All of life is relationship. We relate to people, things, and ideas, and our actions reflect the tone and substance of each relationship. How we relate to money, to the ideal of love, to nature, to our concept of death, and to our spouse reveals, in the moment, the truth of ourselves.”

Wow!
February 20, 2013 at 5:53 pm
@Iceesurfer
I think McAfee said that he was “above it all” a Business Man… why not? He described himself as a “serial entrepreneur,” and does not appear to be the idle type.
(He said he gets in trouble when he”s bored)
————————————————–
Some of the business he starts, are for pleasure, fun, interest, or curiosity.
Some, just because he can

@DB
Yes, I agree, they have a vested interest.
They are spending alot of time and money for damage control. There was an emergency meeting held for all the Tourist Industry, Ministers,in Central America, held in San Pedro recently …
The topic of discussion was the recent violence, crime, corruption in their countries, and how to “Spin it ” Divert Attention for Public Opinion and the Tourist Dollar
(70% of BZ, GNP, I believe)
Gotta say, they are doing a fine job .. their ads, glowing reviews , travel articles and Best ratings, are Everywhere

Ladies and Gentleman – could you find it in your hearts to send JM and Sam your kindest and most loving thoughts instead of your sometimes impatient demands … for an update … I was in 10 cities in the last month and happened upon JM in one of them … JM is a gentleman and a warrior with information … I think in these times he is doing everything he needs to, for both of their futures and business…

There are some gems , he does have a way with words
His books, are a good , easy read..(Amazon)
I did see an interview where he said , He considers them garbage and does not recommend them highly.
I disagree, but then I like his writings
His books are an interesting insight as to Who Was McAfee, back in the day, over a decade ago, in Yogiland they are in his own words.
Hey, if we can’t talk To him, we can just talk About him, maybe even Quote him …as if he were Here.

I really don’t believe everything is all about money, but everyone that I talk to says, it is.
I embraced Hippie values a long time ago, and I still have them. But, thank god my husband didn’t embrace those values or I wouldn’t be able to go back and get those cute Coach espadrilles I saw at Dillards the other day.

February 20, 2013 at 1:04 pm
It IS true that there’s no such thing as bad publicity. On the other hand, maybe it’s a lot of wealthy white men who want to f**k teenage girls. That’s certainly one of the draws here.
February 20, 2013 at 1:04 pm
I will continue to be cynical in regard to reports from those who have a financial interest in Belize , whether it be property owners, business owners, realtors, those involved in tourism, etc.

Thanks for the kind words, BB&B. 🙂
Everything is anonymous, just create a Blogger account with a gmail addy. Give yourself a name (your current one is perfect), and that’s what you’ll post under. Your Blogger profile will show only as much as you want it to. (ie: moniker only).
Greg has helped me with the blog, and is able to post or create a guest post for me so he is present in that aspect. He is also who he says he is, and has done me no harm, nor do expect he would ever try. That story was really supposed to call AK out for being a pussy, not be indicative of his character. Different time, different place. I do feel terrible that it’s turned into a bone of contention, so I hope you both can forget about it.. “Can’t we all just get along?” LOL RIP Rodney……
So rest assured no one has access to your personal information. I set it up to post in real time, and figure I will only change that option if idiots start posting so much that it’s bothersome to delete. So far, so good.
See you there! ツ
February 20, 2013 at 11:53 am
LOL 😉
February 20, 2013 at 11:53 am
Thanks Gaby, It was certainly the number of times you guys said whoisweb that came to mind when creating the blogs name, lol.
The easiest way I believe is to have a gmail addy that you use to create a Blogger acct. I don’t see any of your personal info unless you choose to make your profile public. Not even your email. It’s set up for real time, and allows me to delete any inappropriate comments, but luckily there haven’t been any. I am the only administrator too, btw.
February 20, 2013 at 11:28 am
Everyone is blue today. Did anyone else notice?
February 20, 2013 at 11:24 am
True love, with reporters to prove it and a house big enough for the rest of the girls. OK, everyone should be entitled to their own love story.
But,
I’m still a fan of the Disney version.

@Web
No worries, you have been nothing but conciliatory , helpful, and respectful to All
You, more than any , have kept this blog Alive
————————————-
I want to come play on you new jazzy playground , but quite honestly have been hesitant because of I don’t want “him” to have access to my private info. ..( i think he is involved? ) there is something about “him ” that doesn’t resonate as True , for me
I might be wrong, he has been a string advocate against AK, and his posts are informative at times.
Regardless, I just find him a little rude
———————–
Enough about our little spat , we must be bored
Sorry guys for this diversion
On with the Show ! Just one small problem , the Star of the Show , is Still…no where in Sight..or
on Site, missing in “action …” and words
(For almost 3 weeks , but whose counting ?)
Interesting , I really don’t know how to see it.

Drive by shootings and such, I would be reluctant to disclose my private info to you
February 20, 2013 at 4:31 am
To “incessant and puerile”, I’d like to add “boorish and asinine” to describe Jenkins’ commentary here and elsewhere. It’s his kind of repeated banter that makes me increasingly stay away, and convinces me McAfee has just about moved on himself.

@web I got a great chuckle from your blog, whereismcafeewhoisweb.com. I think I referred in a previous comment that this blog should be “whoisweb” as you became somewhat of the moderator in John’s absence.. something this blog needs.
———————————————————
Just a question. How does one comment on your blog without giving public email info? I don’t mind that you have this info but I prefer that it does not show up on your blog for all to see. I have nothing to hide but there are some crazy people around here.

Bro, you are totally mental. You know this, right? For the love of God, get help! 🙂
February 20, 2013 at 12:21 am
PLEASE you guys….
.
BBB, I was confirming what you had written about Greg’s comments prior to this incident…what he did for a living, etc. I’m so sorry for the confusion, I should have been more clear. The reason Greg thought you were referring to him when you said ‘Mr. Walrus’, is because he is a man…I am not. You are both nice people, and I feel badly
if I have contributed in any way to your misunderstanding. ⌣̩(~_~;)
‘
Me thinks a post is exactly what we need……
February 20, 2013 at 12:18 am
Hi Gaby,
The place being sold doesn’t mean John got the money for it.
p.s. I’m in Paris.
February 19, 2013 at 10:18 pm
Out of sheer panic, brought on at the thought of being cut off from John, his story, you & all the other posters, and Belize, I – WEB, created that blog, not Greg. I am the Walrus, LOL. So poor Greg once again gets blamed for something I did…. tehehe Jk Greg, lol
He did post earlier……I asked him to, and we’ve had a guest post too.
It’s a shame that slicky dick guy made such a big deal out of the robbery retaliation post. It was really, when used in context, an example for AK and nothing more.
.
Thank you for saying the blog looks nice, I have never done this before, and just threw it together…. quickly as you noted. My hope was not to replace this (as if) but to provide a place for us to all land, if it truly had been the end of whoismcafee. We were all relieved when it came back last night, and are anxiously awaiting another post from John. It’s been so long since we heard from him that I suppose I had a knee jerk reaction.
I’ll be the first to say that it has none of the appeal John’s blog does, but it has been fun so far.
.
The joke’s not lost on me, either 🙂
February 19, 2013 at 10:16 pm

Yes Sir …as you wish.
There may have been some confusion.

Your comments have me very concerned with your state of mental health at the present, your reference to my involvement in a “drive by” shooting? Your reference to me “being nice”? Your reference to me being “Mr. Walrus”? Not one of which has anything to do with me at all.

February 19, 2013 at 3:25 pm
Hi Chad 🙂
Thanks for popping in.

Is there anything from the ‘reserve of comments’ that John spoke of in November that you could post something from? I try hard to find links to post, and provide reading material, but what everyone wants are John’s words.

I don’t think he is easily bullied in any shape or form .
In an earlier comment I asked ? if a boycott, mutiny or silence, would get JM’s and Chad’s attention?
But I also knew better …..Probably not.

With all due respect sir, i mean, send us a nice fresh hello or drop us a word of some kind for sort of relief! Geeeze Louise!
As a fellow citizen..how’s about us here waiting in angst as friends, not strangers..many folks just want to hear you are ok, and we wait again to hear for your return, by mmmm anticipation of you to return.. lol!
John, the long uncertain wait..what it’s all about.
A……..sigh of relief?
A new post is coming?
A kind word, to be continued, due diligence?
Running in the foreground.
Private reasons?
JM is enjoying traveling far away with Sam,
in love, has him in abandon here?
A heart for romance, adventure, intimate fun!
After his near death experience by government disaster – who could fault him now, perhaps no one really, they could have easily shot and executed him.,. That’s no certain comfort…
The Person of interest is uninterested now!
And with all is gone, fleeting by -the not so distant hot pursuit, hot mess of governmental chaos,
The fumbling press prodding him on,
All the questions, the probing, the reporters, publicity, what a chore, a burden to him?
Vacate in need of some R&R
privacy,
A personal time of vacation.
A duty to his own solitude
In peace of mind,
for a real change…
Wtf…???

John allowed us to enter his life in a controlled manner for a period of time of his own choosing; he owes us nothing more, as the relationship was never an agreement among equals. I will continue to wish John safety, good health, and contentment, and hope that if he ever thinks of me from The Really, Really Old Days, he knows that I will always be on his side, and finds occasion to smile.
And now, I’m going back to waiting for Godot to come.
February 18, 2013 at 9:01 pm
I am the voyeur who has read each and every page. Went to all links (including music hour) and followed all comments. It has been a journey, knowledgable and entertaining. Why would JM come back to explain his absence when he gets tons of grief from his other “prank”?
This is like leaving a good book on public transit and unable to locate a new copy.
Signed duped into the elaborate JM help me escape this foreign country with blog media so I can be free to carry on serving no one.

I totally agree BB&B. It’s not that I don’t like chatting with current company, however, I came on this blog to hear John’s story of Belize. Since he has been MIA for a while now, I don’t know why I still keep coming back hoping for an update. Why? I don’t know. I think it held my active attention, but now I’m bored. I am tired of speculating on why JM hasn’t bothered to even post here. So if he doesn’t feel compelled to do it, why should I? He promised more than he’s delivered. I’m not happy about it. This blog was his not ours. I don’t know how much longer I’ll be able to hang. It seems like it’s starting to get longer and longer before I check back as it is now.

February 18, 2013 at 6:10 pm
Hello? is anybody there?
Has Elvis left the building?
February 18, 2013 at 1:38 am
@BBB
I think John has just been quite busy with Visas and things.
.
I too would like an update. It was different when he was on the lam. The only thing on his mind then was survival and we were a part of his survival.
.
Now the hard work starts. Keeping interest in his story while do ing the mundane task of bring Sam, Amy and the girls to Portland.
.
I’m sure he is just on a break and will start up again soon.
February 18, 2013 at 1:10 am
A message to let us know he is not intended to participate on the blog for a while would of been a nice courtesy. For him to leave the last thing he has said to us was this article then just dropping off the map seems a tad bit inconsiderate to the people who has grown to care about his well being. I know he thinks the people who care for him are crazy because we don’t even know him. But there is no need to post a panic mode article and then bow out. Then through our own investigation we find out he is moving and going off to get married. Not saying those details are necessarily our business but I do think it is our business to know he will not be here a while. Web, Gabby and a few others has pretty much kept the blog alive since the boss mans disappearance. They have been doing a great job by the way. I just hope he drops in soon to at least say “Hey guys, Busy as all get out and will be a while before I get back with you” Anyways, Johnny boy I hope you are doing well and Sam also. SO…you changing your last name to Vanegas? John Vanegas..she has you whooped so I thought this might be the approach lol. http://www.whoisvanegas.com ….Vanegas Internet security…..hey there’s a thought lol..though I bet contracts would prevent that. Alright. Hurry your arse up and get back and give us some more juicy details. If your holding back on something that will hang the PM’s arse its time to drop it. Get it done! PEACE!
February 18, 2013 at 12:58 am
I sent you my email address. I would love to have some of us be able to converse with each other real time. Web too.

Patience is a great virtue.
John left the country to reunite with Sam?
For their private wedding?
That with the two Portland reporters as eyes and ears now?
This to me sounds like a love story, of which i think calms – strengthens him.
Love has him…instead of our noise makings here.
Next post is theirs / bliss – I bet…

I met Timesha 2 years ago while writing a story about the Mennonites of Belize. The Mennonites are austere and hard working, yet each Friday, many of the men allegedly went to a local bar in Orange Walk, drank, paid women for sex, and partied. I found it hard to believe, so I arranged to take photos at the bar on Friday mornings to help with my story. I showed up for five weeks straight before I finally got the […]
.
With all the links posted we know what is going on in Belize. Day to day life, maybe not, but the crime and corruption cannot be denied. Oddly (?) some of the same people who commented here how distorted and inaccurate our views were, are commenting on these and other stories too. Only they aren’t saying everything’s ok. Quite the contrary.
February 17, 2013 at 10:32 pm
Thank you sir., you may be well meaning , however , after hearing of your adventures with

There was a story about her in an early JM post,

You are a wonderful writer. You say so much more in your space and words then others say in 4 times the space and words, you say it well and often beautifully.
————————————————————–
The one bit of info I really wanted was about one of the girls and her children. I can’t remember her name but she had a beautiful smile. she was the bar girl-beer girl. I remember reading that she had left one child with a relative that was abusing the child, and that she had another child who lived in the home.
She was getting help from JM before she became one of the eight. Now I wonder about her childrens fate.
I guess a question that won’t be answered.
Or maybe it is answered. She (wish I could remember her name) I can only suppose is back at the bar, if it’s still open, and the children will grow up in poverty and abuse like so many children in the world. I have not stopped thinking about her.
The second bit of info I wanted was about the fate of the remaining dogs. Supposedly Sam’s father is caring for them but wasn’t there a report that he had been jailed? Again guessing their fate doesn’t provide a positive outcome.
————————————————————-
Who knows what this is, I started playing while waiting to hear something that I’m not going to hear.

Maybe the game is over. But the loses are in Belize not here.

Ok Guys , has the time come to Ask? Are we being duped?
Is this Blog just an another McAfee prank, scheme and scam ? A “what is reality” Game of…Show and Tell?
The biggest Mind F$c$K of all times.?
___________________________________
Didn’t JM say, The Bluelight fiasco, was a bet… for money ..and not for an endless supply of “Bath Salts” ? He won that bet, or so he says.
Maybe there is a similar bet going on? , X amount of followers, and commentaries, as we “follow along.” ..
Even when there is no One there ?
and we are just talking among ourselves?
—————————————————–
Is there any commercial and/or marketing value in the , “Who is McAfee Blog,” Can it be sold or traded or leveraged? Is its value dependent on how many commenters? and traffic? .. (what do you guess is the daily traffic, or hits are on this site? )
How many of these hits, post comments,10%? We have no way of knowing , how many are Not posted , by the Powers that Be
As it Is , We are down to just a precious few here …others lurk, and come and go.
I am no techie, I have no way of Knowing , but I would think the number of loyal followers would have some significance for marketing, or A Bet?
We make well intended suggestions, at first Politely , then directly , how to improve the site with more bells and whistles to Make it the “Best on the Planet..”, but they fall on deaf ears as we limp along with archaic format.
The only thing I see that is New is the FAQ
( Hey, did you notice that the FAQ questions on this site and on AK’s site, are the same exact questions, almost in the same order?
Who “lifted them ” from Whom ? They were both activated around the same time. …who was the original source?
___________________________________
The Media links are pathetic, they have not been updated, and the commentators have been keeping that going …
In one of JM’s first post, .. he made it very clear that .. if we want to play along , we have to do our homework ….to keep up with the story.
Many have co participated , co created as it goes along,…. but is our chat room getting a little off course..or ? just fulfilling its purpose ?
————————————————————-
We have made many excuses, For Who is McAfee….too busy ..with movies, books or Visas, protecting the innocent or not so innocent , has he been silenced by publishers or advisors, and what is running in the background..?
As @ Gaby said or implied in an earlier comment.
What ? you can post everyday while on the run, but now… total Silence ?
Is it being just a little bit rude, or are we being petulant children, wanting it NOW?
_________________________________________________________________
Maybe a boycott, mutiny or silence, will get this/heir attention? probably not.
We are here in Free will, …we can come and go, stay, or go, or do whatever we want
Granted ,it’s a totally original concept, there are not rules, or script ……but it is a Mystery
_________________________________
JM said it “in his own words” , looked straight in the camera and, paraphrased, said :
WHY are you all following my life, instead of Living your own?
I’ve been asking myself that question for far to long , and I still don’t know.
How about You?
(Sorry to be so verbose, its just how it rolled)

News on the superbond repayment.
February 17, 2013 at 2:00 pm
The press wants to make him out to be crazy and he follows their lead. He has a media company that seems to do nothing to change his image. Perhaps that is what will sell the movie, book, whatever—the craziness of the story and the man they say is unhinged. He said it best. The press uses him for their own purpose but he uses them also. It’s a game.
—————————————-
While it is true that he has made certain choices in his life that are not mainstream, he is still a very interesting person, certainly a creative one. There seems to be those that love him, that loathe him ( like that Kevin blogger and the tourist industry in Belize) or are just so confused that they follow for the entertainment and what bizzare event will happen next. I imagine there is a mixture of all of this on this blog.
February 17, 2013 at 1:58 pm
John M – I did not say so in our brief conversations – thank you for being gentleman as well as a warrior in a world of complacency – hope Sam took some peace from the prayer card … I believe you will always come out ahead …

I found her writing to be more about herself then her subjects. I see that more and more these days. It has a nice flow, easy and enjoyable to read but still not a lot of content.
The previous article did state that these “photo op’s?” were staged and I appreciate the writers honesty, but again content. Why, what makes that news worthy?
A man flees from a corrupt goverment after his dogs were poisoned and his neighbor’s killed, gives interviews about terrorists and mexican drug cartels and he’s sitting on a teeter totter, having a fake doughnut eating contest and getting a tattoo.
This isn’t right,
Now ya’ll can berate me for saying that.
February 17, 2013 at 9:46 am
After some discussion with some associates, around 12 in total, I came with an idea. One that just might work as it has for a long time though often within confined doors.
Before making a ‘decision’ on behalf of others, whether it be friedly, ‘foe’ or one’s Neighbor, try attuning the mind to the proper frequency.
Here is just one way:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8K4Y7Tc20Q
It also works wundas before studying for or taking an exam, going on date and so on.
Listening to music attunded to the correct HZ. frequency (ie. gregorian chants, 528 HZ. frequ.>>>)) can do much more than met the eye.
L8ter folks.
February 17, 2013 at 1:36 am
Thank you BBB. It is too bad that the media company does not post recent news or articles about John here. I guess they are too busy making a movie however one day they are going to need to think about promoting it.
John says he hand selects his reporters. I think that is batting average is a bit low and while this article is not so bad, in the end, it will be like the rest. All reporters love sensationalism because it sells.
By the way, he chose the London Times who placed him in a strip club and requires a one year subscription at 9,99£ a month in order to read the articles. I can’t find it for free. Anyone else read this article? If so, can you comment?

@Gaby
Welcome back Gaby, I’ve missed you,
Wow… “Who is McAfee” outed their impending marriage … with, Mary . (appropriate name ) .
She got the exclusive, and a Good time was had by All.
I like her style of writing, She just tells the story, with a wink and a nod.
I don’t think she knows quite what to think about this guy. She keeps trying to pose him him in strange backdrops…strip clubs ( JM hasn’t been to a strip club in 30 years, Why would he ?)
and did you catch the one of JM in a children’s play yard on a teeter toter…a little suggestive .. a subtle implication and manipulation… or pairing him with the Jack Ass Star at a gun store, wearing a funny hat.
I think JM tries to go along , but at some point it just gets silly
————————————————————
Maybe a little l passive aggressive, not sure?
we will see, how she describes the Who, What, Where, How and WHY of it, with an objective eye .
———————————————————
Sam’s words endeared her to me more .
I have no Way of Knowing … Who is Sam? but she appears to Be in Love ..
———————————————————–
She’s got a tiger by the tail, its gonna be a wild ride,
Ahh…but the places she will go and the things she will See…
It will be the adventure of a life time. .
No wonder she is smiling, Now.
February 16, 2013 at 3:43 pm
Thanks for the update, Gaby. Maybe John has been waiting to post to give Ms. O’hara time to get her story out. Wow, edge of my seat! Did they or didn’t they? What a teaser! Maybe that will be John’s next post on here.
February 16, 2013 at 3:08 pm
GJ would know what he’s doing as he worked for the secret service from what I could gather. I’d like to ask him to say ‘hello’ to Dru and Debbie for me. I’m sure they’d understand providing he understood this message. I think so though you know, I could be wrong. If so, carry on…..carrying on.

February 16, 2013 at 12:40 pm
@GregJenkins – You are a fascinating person. Let me begin by saying I was referred to this blog by a posting that you made on pandodaily.com in which you admitted to participating in a drive by shooting in South Florida as a result of your drugs and firearms being stolen. I do not know any of the characters on this blog and quite frankly cannot follow some of the references (i.e. AK, Rudolfo, etc.) but that is not important. I do know of John McAfee through his positive contributions to the technology industry and he seems like a nice enough guy. @WEB is smart to have distanced himself from you as it sounds like you only know each other via this blog. After further looking in to some of your other contributions to this blog, you you claim to work in security and that your “experience is documented and speaks for its self.” Since you work in security, you should know that publicly Coping to a drive by shooting that involves drugs and firearms is the exact type of statement that gets law enforcement agencies in Washington DC to listen up. So if you see any black SUVs pull up at your house or work with tinted windows and guys in suits get you, do not be surprised…LOL.
On January 27, 2013 at 8:50 am you wrote that you have provided: “Personal Security for both Presidents Reagan and Bush Sr., not to mention numerous foreign and domestic diplomats, without flaw.” As a security professional, you know that to have the privilege of serving the POTUS or diplomats in that capacity requires TS/SCI clearance which involves a very detailed background check involving your family, your associates. I am sure people would like to Profile someone who admits to a drive by shooting as well as to serving the POTUS. As far as your advice to John McAfee is concerned, I find it to be a bit bizarre. Why advise John McAfee to “Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!” etc…? John McAfee is an innocent man, he has not been charged with any crimes, he has contributed positively to the USA, helped many people out and is fortunate enough to be loved by attractive women! Like I said, he seems like a good guy, what does he have to be concerned about??!! Perhaps you should heed your own advice: only people who do not follow laws (i.e. admit to drive by shootings, lie on TS/SCI clearance applications) need to be paranoid enough to constantly “Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!” It seems to me, if you do really care about the wellbeing of John McAfee and you want to help him, you would not be foolish enough to admit to a drive by shooting involving the theft of firearms and guns AND claim to have served the POTUS. This is only going to bring negative attention to John McAfee and his blog administrators when those security analysts in Washington DC pass information along to Attorney Generals who in turn decide whether to pursue warrants for information. IMO FWIW. So tell us more @GregJenkins your life, it is so fascinating! Please write more! Do you have a blog? How did you turn your life around? Fascinating.

February 16, 2013 at 11:20 am
Well written/thought out.
Yes, it would be interesting to hear a reply to this post as I’m sure JM has had some time to reflect.
Obviously this site was established as a means to an end. The end has ended, so I would imagine JM is working on chapter 2.
I can certainly ‘understand’ where you are coming form with your post though it is very difficult for one to place themselves into the shoes of another.
Reading posts on this site has awakened many to other worlds they’ve never experienced. Many have read books, watched the tele/movies though this is reality in motion.

I told an executive, and he his secretary, how to use this simple feature and it not only saved him alot of time but money as well as things became much more efficient, as they could.
February 16, 2013 at 5:17 am
Alooooooooooha John,
Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!
I hope Samantha has returned safely to her station!
Unfortunately, not much to chat about here… 🙁
Awwww, poor o’l “reality” is screaming for some attention:
LOL about video games, I think (PDS) the last time I played a video game was when Mario Bro’s came out, or shortly there after! (Unless online poker/cards is considered a video game)? I believe, I remember a game “Donkey Kong”? I discovered that we could open the rear panel on the large machine at the bowling alley, there was a (red) button inside that when pushed would add credits, so we could continue playing without spending all of our quarters! (Wink)
Obviously, you didn’t get the part about JM’s mind running a gazillion Mph. Try managing millions. Try owning property in other countries than the one you currently reside. Try signing movie and book deals. Or try getting a loved one into this country, Etc… No, no, no wait, just try answering the amount of phone calls, not emails, just phone calls the guy must receive in a day? obviously have not a clue as to how stressful JM’s normal everyday life must be, then add all this BZ BS to it. Fack I’m wasting my breath (fingers). Think what you want (IDGAF).
—————————————————————-
With regard to addressing JM, uhhhhh (scratching head) this is his playground now isn’t it? I am simply a guest, I try to respect those that invite me into their world. Get what you give is my motto!
—————————————————————-
Sandwillow, I can be nice? Was I ever not nice to you? Hmmmmm!
I wrote this in response to your question, why I don’t really know. Just did!
You are correct, Leading is a huge burden, but just look around this blog, who would you trust to lead under the circumstance of your life being in danger? Or a business deal that could be worth Millions to you? Or a decision regarding a loved one? LOL
—————————————————————-
To the dude with (27564 screen names) that was on the other site ranting and arguing with WEB and I, BOOOoOOooYAH bitch boi, you will not spew your filth there for a while. Mission accomplished, he who laughs last, laughs longest. I believe, I got the last laugh on that comment section, and I have the documented (Proof) in my email as I am sure others do as well.
Dr. Johnny sorry again, I will sign off now as there is truly no need to respond to such ignorance.
Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!
I love what you stand for!
Sincerely,
GJ

That’s some scary shit, especially when you consider the financial backing available to terrorists. Nice to see Canada putting the kibosh on Dominica, but St. Kitts needs to be added to the mix, and the US needs to follow suit.
This may have been a relatively safe and profitable venture in the past, but the times they are a changin’.

Me thinks you’ve gotten ‘play station’ simplex. Possibly in its advanced stages. I suggest backing off games like modern warfare and giving super Mario carts a go!

Slicky,
I cannot give an answer to something I don’t know, as I explained. Greg being the only one who could, did answer you. (asking him for documented proof is silly don’t you think?)
As far as addressing ‘John’, many of us do on a regular basis, and as I recall, Greg always has. You might enjoy going back (to the beginning would be best) and getting a feel for the way things seem to flow here. 🙂

That’s interesting, did you read this, was it a learning device, a slogan or is this yours?
I’m not sure I get mind =lead. I like the “don’t doubt/second guess gut instincts part” but when under stress leading seems like an added burden.
Thank for clearing that up.
February 15, 2013 at 9:12 pm
Ahhh Johnny E , I hardly knew Ye
and we welcomed you with open arms.
I see you and Slicky dick, bat for the other team
Seems like you and Rudolfo, AK , dean , …are all new best friends chatting away In Your imagineray neverland
This all about money for AK, you know, just an extortion scheme and scam ..for the pesky nat to go away …but what is in it for you? Did he offer you a part of the pie? Never take anything on the Cum , it’s all you’ll end up with
It will never happen you know…he is grossly overmatched and will soon implode and choke on his own venom ..let’s just ignore him Ok? and do not engage .
His blathering is insignificant
February 15, 2013 at 9:09 pm
OMG, is that the deluded one posting here? He is certifiable, and damn boring. No wonder he has to fabricate the number of hits on his blog.
February 15, 2013 at 9:05 pm
Say something, John McAfee!! Please! We are all very interested in the next chapter. 🙂
February 15, 2013 at 8:59 pm
Ok, maybe this guy did see John McAfee in a bank in Portland. If he did, JM would surely know if it was possible. Pardon me if I remain skeptical of any poster who claims something like that 🙂
At the time, John McAfee claimed not to be in the USA at all.
Anyway, it would be nice to hear from the man himself more often 🙂 I hope JM is doing well!
February 15, 2013 at 8:42 pm
Oh Johnny I barely knew Ye
I take it back
I see you bat for the other team , and you seemed like such a reasonable fellow , I felt you came here with an open mind.. But you and Rudolpho , Ak, seem to be new best friends
Oh well…
You know it’s all about money with him, no altruistic motives about justice, or Mr .Faull
It’s just an extortion attempt , a pay off to go away…pesky nat . He has certainly put a lot of time and money into the scheme and scam,
But .. I think he his outmatched . Let’s just ignore him and he will choke on ihis own venom ok?
February 15, 2013 at 8:35 pm
Does not matter how many months Chad. I can wait. An avid reader enjoys the span of time waiting for the story as much as the last page of said journey in print.

“Be what you would seem to be- or, if you’d like it put more simply- Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.” Lewis Carroll
February 15, 2013 at 7:41 pm
What I am saying to Mr. JM each and every message I send, is a oh so simple, but very critical reminder. Please understand, when a person finds them self in such a chaotic dangerous situation, as JM has been in for quite some time now, the related stress takes a very serious toll at every level of mind, body and soul.
—————————————————————-
Mind = Lead – don’t ever doubt/second guess your self. Go with your gut, never allow others to take control of your destiny. It is extremely critical that while in survival mode you as a individual chart your own course of action. Consultation from very smart/powerful people is always appreciated, in the end make your own decisions. Leadership is about influencing people to follow.
—————————————————————-
Body = eat / nourishment is the second most critical necessity in these types of situations. For clarity of mind as well as maintaining a balanced immune system. A sick man often haven’t the energy to continue or clarity of mind to make cognizant decisions and this could ultimately lead to ones early demise.
—————————————————————-
Soul = sleep / every waken moment JM’s brain is running 9965854875 mph. More in a minute than the average humans normal day. It does not turn off no matter how hard he tries. Sleep or deep meditation is the only solution.
—————————————————————-
MOVE = Zig-Zag / there are alligators chasing JM vicious ones (bad people), in this type of situation, standing still (same place)-(same routes) day in and day out makes you a predictable easy target.
—————————————————————-
All of these things (Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE) sound simple to remember under normal circumstances. Under the type of circumstances JM has been experiencing for a long time now, the most simple things are easily forgotten to much more pressing matters or circumstances beyond your control.
—————————————————————-
Dr. Johnny???? Care to elaborate?
February 15, 2013 at 7:27 pm
ummmm….the comments section seems to have been disabled for the article…??? Just checked and they’re gone from the first installment too. Did we all get banned,
or did they just get tired of him posting the same comment over and over and over? LOL
.
Hey Slicky, Behold, Thursday’s off the wall ramble I replied to:
mcafee_truth said
Greg Jenkins
I wish it was my friend. I really do in the depths of my soul – I wish I could say, “I think John is a good guy and a Saint.”
No one has anything good to say about the man and for the 2 links you gave above – I could give you 2500 that say John fucked up in a big, bad way and went to the US and made it worse. But in reality, I only need the words of Josh Davis and Jeff Wise, they are sufficient.
If John could change my mind then he could change the world’s mind. I haven’t even heard a simple, “I could have done this a little differently”. A man with out a conscience or remorse is a cold blooded killer. That’s exactly what I think he is.
.
Of course, my reply is long winded, lol.
WEB said
mcafee_truth Greg Jenkins I have given up on getting the evidence you claim to have, yet never provide. I wasn’t even going to reply to you again, it’s pointless. Your comment is just ridiculous on so many levels, (I can’t believe you don’t edit before posting), so here goes:
Why? Why do you wish – from the depths of your soul no less – that you could say “I think John is a good guy and a Saint”. ummm….Pardon? What bearing could that possibly have on your life? I have been following this since the beginning and I have never said anything remotely close to that. I have said how disappointing the bungled investigation was, as the Faull family will likely never know what happened to their son (etc.) I have also said I don’t believe JM killed GF. It doesn’t make any sense, but more importantly, there is ZERO evidence. But wishing he was a Saint? ahh, NO. I have my own yard to worry about.
Many people have good things to say about John, and no, not just the juggernauts on the blog. Throughout the history of whoismcafee numerous people from John’s past have come on to wish him well, say kind words of their time together, and genuinely show love for the man. That you want to count separately the plethora of articles that simply regurgitated – word for word – the same story is laughable. So you chose to listen to JD & JW as the gospel. No problem, that’s your prerogative. It seems you’re looking for sensationalism anyway. I pay no attention to their writings, save entertainment. They weren’t in Belize when GF was murdered. Period.
Change your mind about what? While it was entertaining to get you to blatantly show that you know nothing about the murder, but simply have a hard on for John, why would he care what you think? What responsibility does he have to you to say anything like ” I could have done this differently” to you? Why would he? Perhaps he has had conversations with personal friends regarding his life, and maybe he hasn’t. I don’t know, and it’s not my business. Why do you think it is yours? Why do you believe this man owes you anything?
And finally: con·science [kon-shuhns] noun 1 . the inner sense of what is right or wrong in one’s conduct or motives, impelling one toward right action: to follow the dictates of conscience 2. the complex of ethical and moral principles that controls or inhibits the actions or thoughts of an individual. 3. an inhibiting sense of what is prudent: I’d eat another piece of pie but my conscience would bother me.
remorse [ri-mawrs] noun 1. deep and painful regret for wrongdoing; compunction
You state “A man without conscience or remorse is a cold blooded killer”. Did you get that from the Urban Dictionary too? How does being without the above qualities parley into being a murderer? What went on between the two of you? How did he hurt you?
I knew if you talked enough the picture would become progressively more clear. . . . or should I say it would turn more. . . . Nope, not yet. Almost there 😉
February 15, 2013 at 7:00 pm
…should be puffington post 😉
February 15, 2013 at 6:59 pm
@connie,
I missed that in the article. Burbank is indeed a place where many of the so-called minor studios are and also television studios.
.
For instance, Johnny Carson’s sjhow was broadcast from there. I have been there. It isn’t really your typical Californication type of town. Hollywood and Venice Beach, now those are fun places.

February 15, 2013 at 6:55 pm
LOL Slicky,
You’re right, Rakontur Films would be another good choice for telling this story. 😉 It looks like ‘he’s’ taken down a lot of his comments, so it must be confusing. No worries, I still have ’em all, I’ll put them back when I get a minute. (super busy w/fam) (oh, I’m WEBUSA lol)
So yes, that’s part of my reply to an asinine rambling he offered up. The juggernaut explanation to Connie is above ↑ (IYWW).
Greg and I met only as a result of this blog, and know nothing about each other except what we have written. One clarification on his statement though, he says they pulled up in a position to BE seen, as opposed to a drive by as you stated. I think that’s important to the point he was making. It sounds wild, but in the drug culture of ’80’s Miami, shoot ’em ups weren’t rare. So it’s he who has the exciting story, lol. Although…
Glad you joined in, Slicky. I’ll go post his comment under mine for you, hope it makes sense then. ツ (he’ll probably blow a fuse) smh
.
Hi BB&B,
It would be fantastic to have a better system to find stuff, wouldn’t it? …it’s so frustrating. Didn’t they add the FAQ section at David’s suggestion? Maybe they will make the changes you’re suggesting, too…….or do you fear we have been left on our own? …to burn out or to fade away? The memory of how we started with a chase and evolved into a crusade is fading unnecessarily. The momentum has slowed to but a snails pace regarding conversation pertinent to the post. We, on the other hand, have managed to continue posting links and comments, pertinent or not, LOL.
ƪ(˘⌣˘)┐ ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ ┌(˘⌣˘)ʃ
And you’re not confused,lol … your recollection of information Greg posted coincides with what I recall. 😉 ~ ~ (that is, if you want to trust my memory, lol)

February 15, 2013 at 6:53 pm
…And! In a completely un-shocking turn of events, comments have been disabled on that particular story.
February 15, 2013 at 6:52 pm
@GregJenkins – Strange, my question was for @WEB, not John McAfee (unless you are saying that you know John McAfee = @WEB, frankly do not know, do not care). Again my question for @WEB: To your knowledge was anyone was killed / injured in this drive by shooting in South Florida that was a result of drugs and firearms being stolen?
Why did you feel the need to ‘reply’ to John McAfee? Obviously you know @WEB, but are you now trying to implicate John McAfee in your past criminal behavior including drugs, firearms and shootings?
You are contradicting yourself. You now say: “Not a soul was targeted”, but clearly that is not the case since you admit that you were targeting known individuals (who you exposed your face to when you were bringing “heat”) that “invaded and ripped off all of our drugs and money, as well as most of our guns.” In order to clear your good name for the community of John McAfee’s friends here on his blog, please provide the documentation / PROOF for this case, as you say you have: “As stated previously, it’s all documented.”
Please DO write a book! Your story is very fascinating, tell us more please (i.e. how did you turn your life around, where are you now, what are you doing)!! Indeed South Florida in the 80’s was fun and scary. You are lucky you made it out alive since you were involved in the “game” – many people didn’t. Fortunately for you, you didn’t cross “La Madrina” or the Columbians – they do not miss their targets.
Thanks again to @Web and you for your stories. Write more! Until then, keep your hands in the air where I can see ’em:

@ Greg Jenkins @ Web
Am I confused or did Greg Jenkins present himself on this Blog as a security specialist and said he had worked for Presidents and ?
Didn’t he offer to help JM at one point with his expertise?
and now he talks about drugs and drive by shootings? I don’t think he can be both? can he/she?
Webmaster: It would be so helpful to be able to cross reference with Commenters usernames. Many gems are lost
It’s Soo labor intensive to go thru 4 months of comments … or am I doing it wrong?
I’m no techie, but there has got to be a better way.. if you want us to follow along as was initially requested by ,Who is McAfee
providing of course, that the Blog is to continue … it seems ” iffy” at best
February 15, 2013 at 4:33 pm
@ Chad,
THANKS!.
That will be very interesting to read!
Do you also do “fine art” (not my definition, but can’t think of any other way to put it) that is viewable on the internet?
February 15, 2013 at 3:31 pm
Huh? Not really.
@WEBUSA says in the http://pandodaily.com/2013/02/09/we-take-john-mcafee-to-a-gun-shop-where-he-scares-the-hell-out-of-a-jackass/ comments: “Many people have good things to say about John, and no, not just the juggernauts on the blog.”
You @WEB are @WEBUSA? So then you know Greg Jenkins. To your knowledge was anyone was killed / injured in this drive by shooting in South Florida that was a result of drugs and firearms being stolen. Tell us more, @WEB what a fascinating story! We are so curious to know what type of person Cops to a drive by shooting. People do make mistakes yes… but a drive by shooting!!??
You @WEB and Greg Jenkins need to write a book together…wow! Have you seen any of the Rakontur films? They would be great!!
Thanks @WEB, you’re the best! Just sayin… ¯_(ツ)_/¯
February 15, 2013 at 2:01 pm

@WEB: from above in reference to comments on http://pandodaily.com/2013/02/09/we-take-john-mcafee-to-a-gun-shop-where-he-scares-the-hell-out-of-a-jackass/
Connie says: I want to know why Greg Jenkins called some of us on this blog juggernauts.
WEB says: That was me Connie.
So @WEB, since you are Greg Jenkins, can you kindly share with your community the story behind how you participated in a drive by shooting in the 80’s in South Florida and if, to your knowledge, anyone was killed / injured? Fascinating….
“I would like to give you an example from my past, in the 80’s in south Florida we (friend/partner) and I were home invaded and ripped off for all of our drugs and money, as well as most of our guns! Our response was a drive in shooting (pull in, park the car (strategically) show our face, shoot the whole place up in broad day light, so that the suspected perpetrators knew who was throwing the heat. which resulted in our property (all of it) being returned to our font door step over night.”
February 15, 2013 at 10:40 am
Sorry, trying to be cute and failed. Yes californication is a song (just thought I’d keep with the song theme we’ve had). In the article I read on Parody it mentioned John had been traveling from Portland to Burbank “which he does alot”. I was just wondering what’s in Burbank. I apologize for the confusion.
February 15, 2013 at 10:37 am
Thanks! True. I grew up on Warner Bros cartoons, of which many are banned or not shown now, for fear kids would copy Bugs Bunny hitting people on the head with frying pan! Sad.
February 15, 2013 at 10:34 am
Thanks Sandwillow: I will do a post on my process over at cartoonmonkey.com in the near future. I work in a few different ways. Mostly brush pen with ink on paper. If I have to do something very complicated, let’s say a scene with a lot of 3d buildings etc.. instead of doing pencils roughs, I do my rough work in the computer, sketching directly on the screen. I find it faster and more intuitive than erasing. (and I don’t have to deal with eraser dust!) That rough image is then printed, and I use a light table to get a final ink drawing. These are then scanned into the computer at high resolution and put into little boxes. It’s all very time consuming, let alone writing and figuring out the layout for each page. I wouldn’t wish the work on my worst enemy. -Chad

What are you asking , please?
February 15, 2013 at 8:27 am
Thanks Connie… I wonder how many of the concerned friends emailing the mom took part in the Carnaval parody? It was in such bad taste as far as the timing goes. (I think they should have waited for the case to be solved before making light of the situation/John….regardless of the truth the two are forever linked.)
February 15, 2013 at 8:20 am
I thought it was funny.
February 15, 2013 at 8:12 am
@Connie,
Burbank is the town that many of the media studios are located. It’s next to Hollywood.
.
What is the context of your question? Californication is a song. From what I remember, Burbank is not mentioned in it.
.
I’m confused…..
February 15, 2013 at 7:59 am
That was me Connie. It was used as an effort to circumvent any baseless arguments ‘he’ might propose after reading my comments. He thinks we are all blind, stupid sycophants, I just figured I would offer it up as though he was right, otherwise he picks the words apart and leaves the message behind.
As far as the definition, I prefer this one: a large, overpowering, destructive force. over this one: anything requiring blind devotion or sacrifice. But I figured he would see it as the latter.
And yes, he called me sweet cheeks with a definition that even the Urban Dictionary followers voted down. LOL
He has always made me curious, because this is so personal for him. I think I have an idea why, and was glad to spend the time forcing answers out of him. 😉

And many of us cannot believe the ridiculousness of your attitude. You live in Belize, a beautiful Paradise.
Posts about guard dogs, bright lights, baseball bats, fences, and being to afraid to venture out at night, warm the heart. Newspaper stories about rampant crime, poverty, police brutality and corruption, have me booking tickets. Videos of out of control police firing bullets into the crowd and throwing sheet wrapped corpses into the beds of pickups will make great holiday footage. And the rich white gringos enjoying their privileged lives, sharing over priced drinks, and feeling no obligation to help the native people on whose land they enjoy living, will make me glad I’m not like them.
What were you saying about Karma?
February 14, 2013 at 11:25 pm

There is a man behind the cartoon. Great to hear “directly” from you. 🙂 “I think the cartoons that they’re children are watching, particularly ‘The Simpsons,’ they’re OK. I think that the adult audience is making much too much of the danger that they imply. That’s not the case. The danger for children today, honey, is the news. Keep them away from news on television.”

Why would you bother to come to this blog just to tell us, those who care, what fools we are for enjoying John’s story and supporting him in his endeavors? And then you offer your opinion of John and “gringos” like him.
.
I would not use the word arrogant to describe John, but as you may have a limited vocabulary… just saying.
.
The word is inept. And I have seen many who claim to be Belizean like you come and go. Most are more willing to believe that John is guilty than they are willing to believe that your government is corrupt. You believe both…interesting.

Do you use a computer graphic program ie: Illustrator or another program once you’ve drawn the initial profile or to add color? Is it all computer now?
Do you work in ink or do you use other medium?
Maybe while we wait for another post, you could give us some insight into how you work.

I strongly agree that the Belize Government is made of a bunch of ‘wannabe’ but corrupted politicians. I’m sure they haven’t heard the legend true story of ‘The Shining Path’. Well, a tactical group like this is needed to wipe off crime targeting the Belize Government first. Innocent people are forced to become criminals by trying to defend their integrity, their civil rights, their justice and their safety of their families. I am the type that will stand firm to demolish this or any government with this type of dictatorship.

I still cannot believe the ridiculousness of all this crap. JM has played all you people like a fiddle. Yes, Belize has a typically corrupt and enept banana republic government. I’ve lived here for over 20 years and have seen many screwed up arrogant gringos like JM come and go. All they do is give the rest of us who live and love Belize bad names. Good ridance JM and if you did do it . . . your bad karma will get you.

I met him on the 12th. He was having a meeting in the lobby and I recognized him as soon as I walked in. His presence is unmistakable, I assure you. After hearing he was in Portland almost a month ago, I confess, I’ve kept my eyes open for him.
I’m not sure what you think I could be scamming by leaving a message on his blog. I was simply offering contact to someone I met the easiest way I knew how. Calm down.
February 14, 2013 at 1:16 pm
Hey everybody, longtime reader, exceedingly infrequent commenter.
I’ve popped in verrrry briefly from The Real World to offer my 2 cents on the topic of JM’s most notorious detractor.
WEB, there are two sayings with which I suggest you familiarize yourself:
1. DNFTT — Do Not Feed The Troll
2. If you wrastle with a pig you’re bound to get dirty.
Your flame war on Mary’s article isn’t doing a heck of a lot for your credibility. You both look bonkers. (To coin a phrase.)
I am not exactly a fan of JM, but I’m even less of a fan of his Internet Nemesis. The best approach for ALL of you would be to ignore the troll. Giving him the time of day only makes him appear a worthy adversary.
And regarding this blog —
Unless you are Kafka, it is difficult to transform the intricacies of Visa paperwork or production finagling into a gripping read.
Surely the “ripping yarn” portion of this blog is finished.

Come on, that was uncalled for, you have no way of knowing. It was an innocent comment and much more relevant than some of the off topic posts you make..who cares about your music preferences and random tidbits about drones. or are you just trying to be entertaining? during the lull? that’s ok too, for those who are interested.

I’m not offended but i did look back at my comments from two monthes ago and their very differant then my recent comments…..can you even give me one example? also i take no offence, everyones entitled to their opinion but it leads me to wonder…..am i to assume you put turds in your backyard?
February 14, 2013 at 10:31 am
Chad….are you there? I am you, or John, or sweet cheeks, or an idiot, lol,. Is there any way you could reproduce my mind’s eye vision of the lunatic? Here is that part of my post.
” lmao you know, just reading your post conjures up this hilarious image of you frantically typing, ranting to yourself, while making a pretend list of all the people you’re going to call.”
If I truly could shape shift, I would just become you and draw it myself, lol.
But that’s not possible, so could you please draw it for me if you have the time? Thanks 😉

Deluded is right. Last night (or the one b4 ?lol) he was convinced that I was JM. But he was also convince he might have been Mary O’Hara, the author of the article. Now, he just addressed a post to me meant for Chad and/or John. Who does he think I am today? LMFAO

Ok now that I realize that this is real, I am going to suggest to the board administrator to take this link down. People get paid by the number of hits on a you tube video and I wouldn’t want to see anyone benefiting from this mockery. Web has posted a better one later on in the blog anyway. Please remove.
February 14, 2013 at 2:54 am
Poor deluded AK, who has tried in vain so many times to have a successful blog. I doubt very much that he has sympathy for the Faul family, he is just trying once again to create a sensational blog, and drum up traffic. He is a lunatic who spews so many more lies than facts. He also has an interesting criminal record himself, if what research shows is correct. He is not a fact checker, he is a hate monger.
February 14, 2013 at 1:28 am
He leaves comments now on almost every single story about John. It annoys me. I would spend a lot of time trying to correct him everywhere though.
.
He really gets the facts completely wrong. I mean, people can google. And then to see others responding. Two-faced people I swear.
.
I would be interested in your theories because honestly I do not know where this guy is coming from.
February 13, 2013 at 11:07 pm
It’s not likely Eric met the real JM in a bank in Portland On the 13th of Feb. either.
I wonder if there are JM scammers hitting banks in Oregon? Either that or Eric’s entire comment is a scam. But the chances that he really met JM in bank in Oregon is almost zero.
February 13, 2013 at 11:00 pm
I agree. If this was mispresented as actually JM, yiou have to wonder about the motivation of people like that. If it’s really John joking around, no problem, but if it’s someone else, it’s infantile behaviour you get from adolescent brats.

It would be nice to see the real JM in a video like that and quite appropriate.

I’m forming a theory on his reasons. A little more ranting from him should provide the info needed to finalize my thoughts.. 🙂
That was why I was hoping to find a blog other than his, so I could do some more trolling, LOL.
February 13, 2013 at 7:08 pm
lol “what’s his name” ty 😉
‘
Did you see his posts pandodaily too? Excellent example of a sick twisted mind at work. He’s stark raving mad I tell ‘ya..LMAO I think I told him (in the first go round/when the first installment of the article hit) that I had this image of a madman frantically typing his insane writings onto the keyboard……….LOL
February 13, 2013 at 6:57 pm
That scares me enough to know Belize will never be a destination for me. Can you just imagine? What if you’d said no to the confiscation, then what would your fate have been? SMH I’d prefer to go with your theory that someone was able to keep theirs on the DL.
February 13, 2013 at 6:54 pm
John is sober. He doesn’t drink alcohol.
February 13, 2013 at 6:53 pm
I thought the comment from earlier was just a joke. I didn’t realize that they actually were trying to portray John and co. I thought the fat guy who was playing John looked nothing like him. I didn’t really have an issue with the way they were dressed up. Let’s face it, it is carnival and it was a parody. What I did have an issue with, however, was the note. You may think of John as a lot of things, but he is anything but a coward. At least they did raise money for the lion’s club.
February 13, 2013 at 6:06 pm
I would hate to think about what would have happened if a tourist refused….I bet someone got out with a recording. We can only hope. People are more likely to believe it if they can see it. We’ll soon know.
February 13, 2013 at 6:03 pm
OMG too funny. Hey, I thought I saw Barrow in that crowd!
February 13, 2013 at 5:59 pm
Yes it was on that site that he posted. He said some really bad things. It confirmed for me what I had suspected about him all along. I read what what’s his name posted today. There were other posters that claimed they had been ousted off this site for speaking out. Of course, you know, I know that is not true. There have been some I wished were ousted, but the powers to be wanted them to stay. 😉 I hope Chad is ok.
February 13, 2013 at 5:03 pm
@WEB
His blog is full of half-truths, misrepresentations and downright made up stuff. I don’t know why anyone would be so rabidly angry. John must have hit a raw nerve for him. I saw him first on the Wired article comments.
The Wired article also misrepresents things and it is reported from a biased point of view. The movie will be fictional, loosely based on a story which is loosely based on a snapshot in time.

I met John at a BOA in Portland yesterday, 12 Feb. Just dropping in to say you were very friendly to a random stranger that interrupted the meeting you were having. I’m not sure what I have to offer but would love to help. If nothing else I’d like to buy you a beer or whatever. I hope Portland has been good, thanks.
February 13, 2013 at 4:03 pm
This is another link for Carnival…but it has a little more local flair, with some stills and a write up too. The men are about 2 minutes in.
.
John, do you recognize any/all the players? They were quite enjoying their little cross dressing dance, and the guy playing you was relishing his lead role.
Personally I’m somewhat disgusted by this. It doesn’t say much for the players (many gringos). Disrespecting you could be placed in the jealousy category, and you’re a big boy. But the disparaging portrayal of the girls showed an arrogance and disdain towards the local women I found despicable. They failed to obtain the coveted prize.
I can’t yet vocalize the GF connection….I mean, these people said they were his friends didn’t they?

February 13, 2013 at 3:14 pm
Connie, we have been having fun with that lunatic over on the pandodaily board. He keeps changing his name, so the people who are already disgusted by him won’t catch on. I tell them. 🙂 He is also using a moniker with GF’s w/bird picture, which he was asked to remove by a Faull friend. Of course, he ignored the request. He is sick. I won’t give him the satisfaction of using his name (any of them) here, or going to his blog.
Even he, the other night jumped on the band wagon saying/thinking I was John. He even thought he might have been Mary, the author. At this rate, it won’t be long before his head explodes.
Was it his blog where our new friend posted?
February 13, 2013 at 3:05 pm
She sounds quite partial. As well as either uninformed, not realistic, or in denail. Belize has deplorable conditions. There are not many places in the Western Hemisphere quite as corrupt, or murderous. Although some are close, such as jamaica, which has no small amount of similiarity to BZ…
February 13, 2013 at 2:16 pm
Will you respond to all the AK nonsense on this board?
February 13, 2013 at 1:32 pm
This is like waiting years for a book part two to come out. I am addicted to this story and check daily. Read and re read previously posts by John and comments by others. I may lead “a sheltered life” as I am not well traveled out of the good ole US but I am concerned about the “girls” or players in this plot. I am very concerned for the people of BZ and the corruption. I want the story to continue but maybe have to wait for the book (as i am not a “movie” goer.) Please continue John as these innocent victims need a loud voice. No one should live in fear of the police.

What did he do that so wrong to deserve a beating of this magnitude? Tour guides in Belize work really hard for their money. One tour guide at the ruins told me that he had to go to school and get certified. I don’t think that this rogue government is now able to distinguish between the good guys and the bad guys. The infractions just keep adding up and this time in front of tourist. How sad.

WOW.
Anyone doubting how out of control things are in Belize need only read this article.
.
Enlightening sentence: ” According to several residents on Caye Caulker, the tourists on board the vessel managed to capture the incident on their electronic gadgets but were all taken to the Police station, where they were forced to delete the recordings.”
February 13, 2013 at 8:57 am
DO what EVER you can to expose this government. The people of this “beloved” country have seen soo many horrors! The police department, really any law enforcement officials INCLUDING THE traffic police are fucking mental. They go around terrorizing the public, the hard working people of BELIZE!, myself included.
Here, you’re more likely to be killed by a cop IN BROAD DAYLIGHT than walking down a gang street at night. NO EXAGGERATION INTENDED.
ITS governments like this that sparks anarchy. The fate of this country is soon here. What really annoys me is that the people in this country remains silent! No one questions anything anymore.
Much respect John! I’m looking forward to your new movie. If you can expose the horrifying corruption in our country… we need people to know that this COUNTRY IS HELL!
February 13, 2013 at 8:42 am

Come on, Snappping dogs? and battery acid? That’s so over the top.
If an animal is out of control it should be put down in a humane manner. Snapping doesn’t sound like out of control. A little pepper spray would do the job, if they were knocking people off of their bikes.
So, you found out you could get close enough to feed them without harm, that should have been a clue the dogs weren’t violent, just bored. A toy would have made them happy. Treats would have changed their behavior.
Are you glad the dogs didn’t die?

I’m sure Tesla, Einstein, Socrates, Plato, Hypocrates, Imhotep and Jesus would understand as they often would claim a Vision of a truth, came from above…..perhaps as a gift to one’s good intentions?
February 12, 2013 at 10:18 am
All of this truth-seeking made me think of sharing this below:
http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread925370/pg1
From what ‘I’ understand, Jesus only wrote with sYmbols in the sand to inspire one to use their 3rd eye/Pineal to see/know a/the truth.
He certainly did not trust in the word of man, a human construct, often mistranslated/misunderstood or lost in transcription to describe that Of the Creator.
One should wonder how one knew Right from Wrong before the written language; pre-papyrus?
The ‘Conscience’ (as the guide) as that it is what it’s there for and still unfound in the animal kingdom, by design I suppose…..as the Soul of man is Of the Creator while the flesh is but a vessel to redemption while imprisoned on the rock otherwise known as Terra/tierra.
The language of the ancients were with symbols/symbology for the purpose to explain ‘concepts’ of which must be seen first before one may attempt to explain them in a human language whether written or spoken. They were often etched in stone for posterity. The ancient spiral and the fleur de vida or flower of life are two prominent symbols found etched in stone around the world for ‘some’ reason. There is much meaning with these two symbols alone though it takes the intellect/vision to InVision any truth as it is. As for the term ISIS, what Is, Is.
I’m not interested in debating the topics above though thought you would find this interesting nonetheless.
I thought, might as well bring something positive into the debate.
Take Care and God Bless.
February 12, 2013 at 7:25 am
I’m disappointed. I thought there was going to be more proof on exposing the Belize government. Has John been hushed? In the meantime there have been 2 more incidents of public servants abusing their power. One has not been reported even though media has been called.
February 12, 2013 at 6:32 am

February 12, 2013 at 4:22 am
John, after reading the wired article in print I must say you Scotchman are better needed elsewhere in the world. I think northern Scotland would welcome your company and give back too. I understand you don’t want to return to the US for possible legal reasons. I would recommend you leave the current company who would harm you just as easy as they would sleep with you. You are dealing with a culture that is violent and knows no humility. It is admirable to want to “help” them but John you need help yourself. Leave before you lose your soul brother. Go to a people who will respect your hand. God Bless. P.S. Robinson Crusoe you are not. Perhaps you are more like Miami Vice’s episode of “Definitely Miami”. Get out while you are still alive, PLEASE !
February 11, 2013 at 9:09 pm
@Remy: You remember me to one of my life experiences. I had a neighbor with 2 dogs which were attacking all bikers who passed. Complains didn’t help, nobody cared.
…
After I have seen an old lady drop twice because of the snapping dogs I thought: Humans or dogs? I was told to use battery acid and I prepared them some nice chicken breast. Surprisingly they enjoyed their last meal and were licking up all the acid. They didn’t pass away, but they were sick for a few days.
…
Now my question: Should I have tried to kill the owner?
February 11, 2013 at 8:53 pm

With all due respect, all of these questions have been asked and answered multiple times. You will actually find most of them under the link marked FAQ.
.
With regards to a civil lawsuit by the Faull family… on what grounds? John McAfee is not even a suspect. One of the whole points of this blog is that the government is using the incident to get him in their custody.
.
The so-called powder was Gray not Tan. It was part of another of John’s “jokes”. There is much misinformation out there concerning John. Here on his blog we try to stick to that which we know.
.
I am not defensive, just tired of people asking the same questions on every blog post. There is a FAQ now to make it convenient to find the answers…
February 11, 2013 at 11:50 am
I think JM also refered to Sam as his wife once during a jail house interview.
There is truth, there is different truth, the other truth, the facts and then there is the rest of the story, which we may never get.

So any ideas?
February 11, 2013 at 1:35 am
Hahaah Sorry WEB
.
Not sure what pastime you exposed. I am a software developer so to focus and drown out all the other activity around me, I listen to music. Talking Heads is in my playlist. That particular song is about 2 hours in and sometimes I skip them.
..
I appreciate the comments from the people who live in Belize. Honestly I do. Please do not assume that the people who comment her have never left their home towns. I have. I am not as well traveled as some people. It is my experience, however, that there are many facets to any given culture.
.
In order to experience the true culture you need to immerse yourself in it. Sometimes that is not so easy, as John discovered. Many expats are just on an extended vacation. They see the Belize they want to see. Even here in my city, some people have never ventured into the “latino” neighborhood.

@onlooker, how do you know if dd is a knitter.? Or is this your attempt at sarcasm?
The comment does have a correlation. BBB said that she will be patient waiting for the next installment/post. dd replied that John may be keeping some cards close the chest and withholding some info for commercial or legal reasons.
.
Some of the peeps here are starting to get snippy. I hope John posts something else to keep us entertained. Lord of the Flies comes to mind…
February 10, 2013 at 10:34 pm
Twitter works! lol Very pleased to see Mary O’Hara remove the comments of a lunatic with too many alias’ to remember. He had the nerve to speak as though she had confided in him, and he said that she was scared for her life while with John……. Obviously another one of his lies………..The comments are gone. BOOYAH!
February 10, 2013 at 9:21 pm
What’s going on with you, John McAfee? No comments for quite awhile now! Your fans want to know. Hope everything is well with you and your people.
February 10, 2013 at 9:19 pm
lol
February 10, 2013 at 9:18 pm
@Sandwillow: Thanks a lot for the compliment. Hmm… Nabokov… There are some similarities… My grandfather was Russian, Nabokov lived as well for years in Germany. English is the third language I can talk fluent. So maybe I should start writing novels too. But about what?—JM seems to be the leading Lolita expert in Belize. I can’t compete with his experience.
February 10, 2013 at 9:17 pm
LOL Johnny….I know my sentence structure must be horrible…it was fun to try though. I will persevere, with the hopes that my next attempt will be better. Your grasp of the English language far exceeds my attempt at German….aber ich bin kein dummkopf . (◦’⌣’◦)/
February 10, 2013 at 9:10 pm
onlooker, yes, you are right. I apologize to Connie. It was mistaken identity and my above comment was addressed to another’s comments. Due to the delay in the order of released comments, if you look below, you will see thats I corrected myself long before your reply above. 😉
February 10, 2013 at 7:57 pm
I recently started reading books that were banned in the 40’s and 50’s. That led me to “lolita” (which could be what led me here, hmmm) . Reading that book, with the realization that English was Nobokov’s third language just astonished me.
I am in awe of anyone that can learn to communicate in a second language in any form and actually get the point across.
I think you express yourself very well.
February 10, 2013 at 7:33 pm
OKay…..
Everyone is jumping my shit and ripping me a new asshole, I think primarily because all the comments weren’t read in order.
1. BBB makes statement about Belize, and the cost of certain things being high.
2. Confused argues it’s not expensive, only $13.50 BZ or $6.75 US. Beans & rice cheap too.
3. I reply to Confused that I think $6.75 is a lot.
4. Gaby says that would be good in France.
5..I try to show Confused why I think $6.75 is a lot using the numbers given in the posts, and what I looked up. I did make mention of the difference between and Imperial and a US gallon.
6. Being frustrated at the people who post but then run away if you give them information to show another side, I posted again to Confused to ask why no reply? I tried to put it a way that might make sense to him, and asked that he try to see it another way. If he spends 6 months a year in Belize, he obviously doesn’t live in the same world as many locals.
7. Gaby then posts to me, not very pleased. (my comment landed under hers, looking as though I was speaking to her…I wasn’t)
8. I respond to her with an apology and explain what happened.
9. I scroll down and find your comment. I’m not an expert, I was using the gas prices that Confused had quoted, saying he had just returned from there. If it was wrong, jump his shit will ‘ya? Thanks.
WHEW!!!! Then, to top it off, I exposed my fun pastime because SL thought I didn’t know my Talking Heads from my Devo. SMH
What a night. 🙁
February 10, 2013 at 7:20 pm
@WEB: Belizean girls and all the media love engagement rings with huge jewels. JM should know this. If he would only send me some pics with Sam’s hand then I could Photoshop a nice collection.
February 10, 2013 at 7:09 pm
Jag, you owe the good lady an apology. She is one of the foremost experts in all things Belize, and actually lives there- unlike 99% of the posters here – which begs the question – how much time have YOU spent in Belice, and by that I mean the real Belice, not Ambergris Caye?
February 10, 2013 at 7:03 pm
that post, DD, has nothing whatsoever to do with the post to which you attached it……go back to your knitting.
February 10, 2013 at 6:54 pm
@Gaby
Since this old school blog seems to only allow a fixed number of nesting comments, I will reply here.
I used what you term a grand shout because I wanted to emphasize the “not”. I apologize that you seemed offended by that. You were using the term as an excuse while Katie insists Belize can solve their own problems, thank you.
.
I get tired of the whole, we are new to this democracy thing so don’t blame us if we make mistakes. They were under British rule and it’s not like they were all natives who suddenly woke up and decided to start a democracy.
.
I was simply pointing out that they have the resources for things like schools and forensic equipment. You made it sound like they are lucky if they wear shoes.
.
Please do not transfer your anger towards another onto me. They have the resources available to make their country better. They choose not to. (and before anyone else gets angry, the “they” I refer to is the people in power/the expats/the corporations not the average citizen.
February 10, 2013 at 6:44 pm
Wow, I discovered the Royal Poodle. Our Majesty will knight me now!
February 10, 2013 at 6:12 pm
Gas has NEVER been $16BZ…….methinks the lady (?) fancies herself an expert. And , even on SP< it has never been that high.
February 10, 2013 at 5:56 pm
DUH..lol
The earlier quotes were from Devo, I was just adding to the game. 🙂

February 10, 2013 at 5:37 pm
btw, did you read my apology to Katie? I have never discounted anyone’s opinion. I will however jump on anyone being hateful. Go back and look over my comments, I think you will see what I mean. 🙂
February 10, 2013 at 5:34 pm
Oh Gaby, I’m so sorry you misunderstood. My response was to ‘confused’, not you. I simply used the example of France because you put it in my head, lol. It was he (confused) who said $6.75 wasn’t expensive, not you. I feel terrible the comment landed in a way that it looked like it was directed at you. After I posted some numbers to show him how silly his statement was, I then replied again. I should have put ‘confused’ in quotes. I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings. 🙁
February 10, 2013 at 5:03 pm
If your interested in the above, try tuning into the History 2 channel, not to be mistaken for the original History channel of which has a ‘alternate’ programming agenda. This should open one’s eyes to ancient history and the cosmos.

@WEB
That quote is from a Talking Heads song, not Devo.
.
I listen to that particular song almost every day on my playlist.
February 10, 2013 at 4:17 pm
Do you brush your teeth with bottled water too?
.
You know that you can get water filters for your faucets if you are that paranoid. I can see you being concerned when visiting a country that may not have an EPA, but seriously? Unless you are near a fracking operation, I would have to say you are probably safe.
.
Our treated water goes into our river too. The treatment of the water is heavily regulated as is the amount of water they can release. Also, the water out of the tap is filtered before it gets to you.
..
Your body is a wonderful machine. It can handle a bit of dirt and germs. Problem is we are creating a sanitized society. Also, all those bottles you use, they go in the landfill. Your carbon footprint must be HUGE.
February 10, 2013 at 4:02 pm
@Web. I suppose I am confused. I have no idea what peaked you on this . I never said that I did not think that $6.75 a gallon was not expensive for gas. You came up with that one. I just said that it would be a bargain for us as our gas is far more expensive here. And no, we do not have a higher income than the US. Our taxes are double yours, including taxes for persons that make minimum wages. And yes, they pay taxes too.
Anyway, my statement had nothing to do with expendable income of minimum wage workers in France, US or Belize. And you so rudely tell me that I needed to recognize my own “truth” as you put it. And, how very arrogant of you to say that I am not aware that my world is not everyone’s world. Who do you think you are?
It was a simple straight forward statement of the price of gas at the pump in France. I understand completely that one cannot speak of prices in a pure simple term, that there are many factors that relate to that and to how people can cope with the cost of living in their own respective economies. This comment that I made did not need a full economic breakdown of the economies of Europe, the US, Belize, the minimum wage, etc. As well as an arrogant judgment of me and what my reality is and what I think. You do not know me nor do you know my reality and you have no right to judge that.
I know you must have spent a great deal of time to come up with all your calculations to prove me an idiot. I really don’t understand your anger behind my comment however, I gave you the benefit of the doubt and out of curiosity I kept reading.
Unfortunately, you lost me when you when you used the British pound for France (France is in Europe which uses the currency Euros. (We are not yet part of Great Britain). Also, you used the imperial gallon. Again this is Great Britain not France, we use liters. So, in essence Mr. Web your numbers, did not make sense to me nor to anyone else to whom I showed them.
I personally do not have the time that you do to calculate all these numbers and to make so many comments on this blog. I think they should change the name of this blog from Who is McAfee to Who is Mr. Web. Anyway, as you like to do research, check the numbers again. Gas in France cost me between 1,90€ to 2€ a liter. I know this because I buy it here every week. (But check your sources as your probably know better.) There are 3.7841178 liters to one US gallon. (Everyone knows this one).
Now let’s do the math. That makes it 7,38 Euros per gallon and in USD dollars at today’s rate that would be $9,87 USD per gallon.. This is a simple cacluation for a simple statement that price of gas is higher in France at the pump than in the US. If you wish to argue expendable incomes and wages, that is entirely another subject and I can guarantee you that the expendable income in France will come out lower. We are taxed at a very high rate…everyone..even those who make minimum wage. This has nothing to do with all your lessons and those who make $1.15 an hour in Belize and can’t possible afford gas. I would imagine, as Connie pointed out, that they do not have a car either.
Anyway, I do not need lessons from you. And, if you wish to have more readers on this blog, you and some of the other regulars should really stop berating anyone who has another opinion, has questions, says something that you do not agree with or for example to call someone a troll because she has a travel agency in Belize. She has the right to her own opinion. She has her own reality. It is not up to you to decide if her reality is right or wrong. Personally, I think that it is interesting to listen to people from all sides of Belize. You can agree or disagree. It is called balance. The best way to come to an informed decision or opinion. But then again, perhaps you do not know that your world is not everyone’s world.
Maybe it is France you do not like, perhaps it is me. If you wish to have readers on this blog only coming from the US and Belize, good for you. I could be wrong and so often on this blog, it is pointed out that I am, however, I believe that I am one of the few people in France or Europe for that matter that has ever heard of Belize, cares about John Mcafee or follows this blog. I can tell you that it is not a major topic in the news nor in conversation here. I have to explain it to others but it is so complicated, they just look at me as if I am crazy and get very bored. If you wish to run me off, no problem. Keep your small world of four to five bloggers and your small mind and see where that takes you in the long run.
Perhaps this is the wrong place to say this but I am here and while I am at it –
@ SL….
,Excuse me for saying that Belize was a third world country for which you jumped on me with a GRAND SHOUT. I stand corrected. Third World country “the term is often used to describe the developing countries of Africa, Asia, Latin America and Oceania. Many poorer nations adopted the term to describe themselves.” from Nations Online” http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/third_world.htm
According to the Belize Times there has been a long standing debate on whether one should refer to countries in the category of Belize as Third World or Developing Nations….read the rest of the article here. http://www.belizetimes.bz/2010/04/30/third-world-or-developing-nation/
So I suppose that either the length of this comment or my terse response to Mr. Web makes me a troll, whatever that means. Historically, I have not been much of a blogger and I am not familiar with all the terms. I suppose that the great power behind the screen will now block my comments as I have dared to say what I thought.
Are we not talking about Belize, a developing nation, who is striving to have freedom of speech, of life and liberty? Maybe not. Guess I was mistaken.
I used to come to this blog for news and interesting comments. It is no longer the source of information that it used to be and there is absolutely no control. The comments are all made by the same people, no offense but it does not bring a great deal of new thought. I am shocked that this PR Media company would not spend more time and effort to get this blog off the ground if for any reason other than to support their investment of the upcoming John McAfee movie and book.
Thanks for listening. I feel better. Believe me I put in paragraphs. If someone knows the secret to have paragraphs work here, I think we would all benefit.

February 10, 2013 at 3:17 pm
Good articles.
Much truth.
Here’s more.
George Cadle Price was to reveal in a speech that the central bank of Belize was to devalue the currency as it did in the past when he was PM.
The currency was halved of which caused all debts to ‘explode’ by design. This was/Is to take place again by ‘design’. He wanted to warn the folks in his speech though was murdered before having a chance to do so. No autopsy was performed and his shell was cremated…..from what ‘I’ understand.
Perhaps one could find a transcript of his speech to broad-cast as was his wish for the people.
As one approaches old age, they often ‘reflect’ on the deeds/misdeeds of the past and seek favor of one’s Creator via good deeds/actions for posterity/posthumously. The honorable George Cadle Price was a ‘good’ man whom truly meant well for his nation and wished to give the Gift of Truth as a beacon unto the nacht.
Though one’s flesh is temporal, one’s Soul-space is eternal or…..not. Is not the latter the point of one’s ‘being’? How many lifetimes should it take for a soul to get it right? As time is meaningless to one’s Creator, patience is a virtue and a blessing.
L8ter folks and God Bless.

@WEB: Not bad, but we have still to work a bit on your grammar though. I know, I know, I have the same problems with this English.
@SL: Basically I am a more serious dog, but with this approach I got here kicked out fast. So I went to facebook and joined the spy-story writing scene, being too lazy to open a blog. I assume that most people fear to comment in lack of anonymity. So a cabaret approach on facebook will probably lack of feedback. Nonetheless I wait for a picture where our celebrity couple is nurturing the Royal Poodle.

February 10, 2013 at 12:26 pm
Ummm…..I don’t think this is political banter from a opposition party supporter. From what I understand, he has his own horror stories about Belize, and has every right to be vocal about it. I will not just blatantly discount an opinion because it may come from someone opposed to the Party of Power, either. That’s an extremely convenient excuse to use when you don’t like what’s being said. Not being affiliated with either party has it’s benefits.

RE: the posting of (a) email address, I simply have nothing to hide and thought it would be nice to speak outside of this blog! Not every person here is a this or a that. If I was in the least concerned with being hacked or threatened, etc… I just simply would not come to this site or click any links, etc… period. WEB will con’t to be here and participate as usual and nothing strange will happen, I assure you all! 😉 By the way we are two consenting adults, if we wish to have communication outside of “here” , we are allowed … Dr. Johnny approved it behind the curtain…LOL
Actually, I happened to notice that comments were flowing without interruption or delay yesterday, for whatever reason! I simply seized the opportunity to get in contact with a participant of choice.

It is far easier to keep an eye on someone if they are still under your control. It also keeps them on your side if they think you have “done them a favor” or ” stood up for them”.

I doubt many of the native locals frequented their bar. They probably could not afford to. As it is in any tourist area, there are 2 realities. The one presented to the tourists and the expats (who i considered just long term tourists) and the one that the local people actually live every day.
.
To my mind, John was not your typical ex-pat. He went to Belize to live his life, not have an extended vacation. He tried to immerse himself in the culture instead of live on top of it in a superficial bubble.

Interesting article WEB.
I noticed that Chad has also beefed up his portfolio. It is unfortunate that all of this craziness happened so quickly. Chad has been in reaction mode and now it looks like he is taking time for himself and his own stuff.
.
Loyalty such as Chad’s is something that can not be bought. People who are not loyal like that can not grasp the concept. Many of us still left commenting on this blog are also loyal. We may have many miles that separate us, and cultural separations, but an unlikely person has brought us all together.. John.
.
What the future may hold, none of us can know. I do know that the casual observers seem to have lost interest.

WEB – are you John?
February 9, 2013 at 6:23 pm
@Eli: 57, German. So English is not my mother tongue and I can’t express myself in it as I would like to. But probably I should just start and use a blog. It could be seen as a little migration help and a try to mediate between “White” and Belizeans.
February 9, 2013 at 6:06 pm
@BB&B: I feel more truly honored. Nonetheless my story is not really unique. I met in the meantime quite a few with similar history. But OK, I will try to write some things after a few day. At the moment I have a little time problem.
February 9, 2013 at 5:46 pm
Can we now have part 2 of part 2 of “The Girls”?
If we aren’t going to get it can someone let us know?
February 9, 2013 at 5:20 pm
Where did you see these photos , Gaby
Can you post a link? Didn’t see it in the pando daily link
February 9, 2013 at 5:07 pm
@web: I advocate the theory that countries follow others in their development in surprisingly similar steps. After my estimation Belize is about 40 – 50 years behind the US. So probably a lot of the methods they use in New York etc. to calm down the situation could probably — slightly modified to Belizean needs — be successfully reused.

Chad, Love the self-portrait. 🙂 Could you use a vacation? Maybe some eyelids would work. At least then you could close your eyes and go back to your old life once in a while, lol.
And through all the changes and craziness you have remained a true friend. ヽ(ヅ)ノ
February 9, 2013 at 4:53 pm
To Johnny English, So how old are you and where are you originally from and why don’t you write down some of those stories and get them published? I’d like to read them. Or start your own blog.
February 9, 2013 at 4:36 pm
@BBB
It has been my experience that many true addicts will simply replace their “drug” with something else. For instance, women. Many people would consider someone to be perverse if they do not follow the puritanical model. It was not that long ago that men were jailed for being gay.
.
I don’t think John is looking for hero-ship. I do believe that he is fighting the good fight and has been all his life.
February 9, 2013 at 4:09 pm
who’s going to yell at you? 😉
February 9, 2013 at 4:09 pm
Definite possibilities, not a big stretch to imagine another reason besides ‘true love’ spurring them towards the alter, BUT…..the look on Sam’s face in those photos, especially the one with her eyes closed, radiates love.
Whatever special arrangements go along with the marriage are between them (they wouldn’t be the first) and I don’t want to know, lol.
We can only wait and see….and hope ❣ ❣ ❣
February 9, 2013 at 3:55 pm

February 9, 2013 at 1:05 pm
Is it possible that Who is McAfee can be both a pervert , (in come eyes) , an addict (in some form or fashion) , and still be a Hero? fighting the good fight? Truth Be told
February 9, 2013 at 12:53 pm
wow
maybe Ms. Ohara will become the Ghost writer of the story to be told for the ebook.
or maybe she will become part of the Harem?
or both?
Maybe a good gig, if you like crowds and lack of privacy… (I learned more than I needed to know about JM eccentricities and preferences in the article…. Must he show his full frontal? that’s kinda of an exhibitionist and outing
Or is he just being honest , in full disclosure As for me, I don’t need to know the ins and outs of it . Its neither my interest nor business.
To each their own
February 9, 2013 at 11:35 am
If this were the case, why then would he bring a reporter with him to meet Sam on an undisclosed island. This reporter has already posted pics of John waiting for Sam at the airport and of the house where they are staying. By the style of the house I could make an educated guess but will not.
February 9, 2013 at 10:41 am
Here is an example:
I was talking to a colleague about John and this blog. Another colleague walked in so I told her what we were discussing. She said: Isn’t he that guy who murdered someone? Being who I am, I proceeded to explain the story and then she said something about his bath salts use.
.
This is a good example of how our media has become more of an entertainment enterprise. I fear that the real journalists have been replaced by the “weather girl”.
.
By “weather girl” I am referring to the stereotype that news shows hire pretty women to report the weather back in the pre-cable days.
.
We now live in a different world dominated by the concept of the 24 hour news cycle. John has been out of the cycle for too long now. Something incredible and different needs to happen to change that.

Given the number of John’s previous posts, and their regularity, it’s completely understandable that we are itchin’ for a fix.

And Costa Rica has HUGE issues, as well. Some similar to Belize’s.
February 9, 2013 at 9:59 am
(opps my comment got away from me before I was finished writing..) as I was saying…
Who is McAfee does not appear to be the marrying kind. I don’t believe he has the monogamous gene from his actions and comments, but I might be wrong .I am a recovering Romantic, but something does no ring true for me about the Love story.
I wonder if There may be other factors other than “Romantic Love” that has inspired their betrothal. ? I have no way of knowing
A man nor wife can testify against their spouse in a court of law, even in Belize. That could work both ways between JM and Sam.
Who asked Who to Marry?
Is it simply an arrangement or exchange?
Perhaps Sam is asking for financial or emotional security for her “cajones,” courage and loyalty in his time of need. ?
That ‘s fair..we do it all the time… but is it that True Love?
I’ll give you this if you give me that ? One Loves Because One Loves, no matter what .and without financial compensation, or the title of the favored one .
Sam may want to be seen as the “favored one,” in the harem…but she’s got a tiger by the tail and marriage will not change McAfee nor his eccentric tastes ,propensity for boredom,
and preference for variety. She must know that, even at her tender age.
Love may have found Andy Hardy , its a nice touch. for romantic novels and books ,but not sure I believe in the ” Happily Ever After”.
Its a personal matter, none of our business, but since he brought the Love story to our attention and interest, I guess that is inviting us to comment? Just wondering?
and besides I know more than I ever needed to know about Sh&% in Belize … maybe a more human interest topic will
liven things up on this wavering blog .
Sorry , but I gotta say it. I had such High Hopes.
February 9, 2013 at 9:37 am

February 9, 2013 at 9:10 am
Thanks everyone for your responses. I read all of them and found it informative. When I travelled to China, I found there waste went into the fields also.
February 9, 2013 at 8:58 am
Confused…..no response to my data? Let me put it another way…..
If you made minimum wage in the USA – let’s say $8.50/hr – and were required to pay for gas at a ratio similar to those in Belize.
A gallon of gas would cost you $51.00
With that said, it’s evident that two things need to change.
1. the minimum wage
2. the cost of fuel
BOTH controlled by the Government…..
http://tropicaldaily.com/belize/belize-11-for-a-gallon-of-gas-prices-have-increased-due-to-secretive-measure/
(I think the last sentence is supposed to say *wouldn’t* , not would)
Perception is reality, that is true. However, all of us must be able to see beyond our own truths, and recognize the truths of others. That you don’t find $6.75/gal US expensive is your reality. Surely you must be aware enough to realize your world is not everyone’s world. Right?
February 9, 2013 at 8:09 am
I’m reading it now. What I’ve found so far is an uncanny parallel between the troubles in Belize “now” and those of Developed nations back in the 60’s & 70’s. Especially uncanny, the upheaval of thought in the USA occurred during/after a very blatant “fuck you” from the Johnson administration. Now we have Belizean Gov’ts issuing that same “fuck you”.
That’s all, lol. Must keep reading…….
February 9, 2013 at 8:08 am
@johnny english : I personally would like to read more . You have a unique perspective with a Belizean family and 12 year experience living in Belize
February 9, 2013 at 7:59 am
Thanks for catching that SL, I must admit I put more importance on the question than the opening statement. Everyone knows I don’t think John guilty of murder, nor do I believe he knows what happened (to GF)
You make a good point though. Despite having us ( the bloggers and people they may touch), I fear the court of public opinion has made it’s initial conclusion. It’s going to take irrefutable “intel”, with an outcome that has an impact before most of those sheeple are able to acknowledge they were wrong.

February 9, 2013 at 7:44 am
It eventually goes into the sea, it’s not all that different along the Ohio River and I guess any river in the US. After being held and treated it has to go somewhere.
My son was facinated by the subject of sewage along with farting, burping, his penis, the ususal boy stuff so I took him to a treatment plant in a city on the Ohio river. Boy was I shocked when I found out what went into the Ohio also came out of the faucet eventually.
Even though I don’t live near the Ohio now I still only drink, and cook with bottled water and don’t open my mouth in the shower.
February 9, 2013 at 7:31 am
Thanks for this research, never heard about those waste water systems before. Now my comment sounds stupid though… This is happening when I write about things you don’t know well enough…
February 9, 2013 at 7:22 am
As someone who has been following the evidence in this case since day one I completely concur with SL. There is no way based on the evidence described so far that any case for extradition could be made. It is clear to any honest observer that John Mcafee could not have had any involvement with this crime. This blog has made an very cogent case for Mcafee being extorted and threatened by a corrupt cabal bent on turning the once idyllic nation of Belize into a sponsor of state terrorism. We can have little doubt that any charges forthcoming will be false and relying on perjured testimony and falsified evidence. The question for students of this case now though, is exactly what sort of false claims and evidence will be presented to the magistrate in Belize? There are many desperate people in this passion play – people who have reason to appease the authorities due to their own criminal lifestyles and people who will tell the authorities whatever they want to hear in exchange for the right about of drugs or money. Remember that John told the world that he had been distributing a highly addictive superdrug throughout Belize. We know this was a prank but most of the world probably believes it and the GOB will surely claim it to have been true and bolster it with testimony from Amy and the others remaining behind. We know that John’s stories about he and the girls having sex with animals and distributing mdpv through local whorehouses were just made up ways for him to pass the time but the world will see the hundreds of detailed posts and listen to the testimony of the Harvard researcher and the others and will believe ever story of tweaked dog sodomy. People reading this blog understand that John was only rescuing these teenage bar girls and prostitutes from their miserable lives when he brought them into his harem and set them up spying on their tricks and associates but the world seems to accept the media’s lies at face value and calls John a pervert and sex trafficker himself. We know well how readily criminals and those corrupted by the GOB will testify to lies in court. We know John is a practical joker and prankster. We know John is innocent and won’t stop fighting until his name is completely cleared. Good work to all the supporters and researchers here.
February 9, 2013 at 6:53 am
John, are you done with us? So many supported you through your horrendous adventure and probably without us you would not have the makings for the movie because the social involvement was a major part of the story…it is disappointing to me and probably many that you do not comment in days and days…are you done with this blog? A supporter from the beginning…God Bless
February 9, 2013 at 5:46 am
Ok John It’s time now.
February 9, 2013 at 4:14 am
Connie: Most folks there have septic holding tanks. However there are no proper drainage fields. So the run off leaches into the ground. Outhouses are the norm in villages. The GOB is like a septic tank as the big chunks rise to the top. In Belize City sewage does end up in the sea: http://rmcguirephoto.com/wordpress/2008/12/16/belize-city-is-ramshackle-with-sewage-ditches-called-canals/
There is treatment but not complete coverage:

My guess is that they try to charge the cost to rich people like John McAfee.
February 9, 2013 at 2:25 am
BTW, I do like the South and Central American girls. Those girls have a hotness unique to their culture. Maybe that’s one reason why there is so much corruption?
February 9, 2013 at 2:19 am
Connie,
Thanks for that clarification on the difference between “South America” and “Central America”.
I’ve been all over the world and the countries south of Texas are unabashedly the most corrput countries in the world.
BTW, have you actually been to any of these southern countries you are defending or are you just regurgitating messages from people you think are from these countries?

@connie: Ha, ha, you must be an urban kid! As in all “civilized” rural regions of the world each house has a septic tank like this one suggested by the Central Building Authority of Belize: http://cbabelize.com/yahoo_site_admin/assets/docs/Sep_Soak_Dets_15072010.214100426.pdf. In Mayan villages lots of people are still using the bush, but this is changing fast.
February 8, 2013 at 11:03 pm
Found Not Guilty? You speak as if he is on trial for something.
.
He is not even remotely a suspect. They have tried to find things to pin on him and could not.Perhaps you are speaking about the court of public opinion.
.
I believe that John McAfee is a good man. Do you think he is guilty of something?
.
And WEB, I am a little surprised with your reponse. But you do keep us entertained in John’s absence. This has almost become your blog.
February 8, 2013 at 10:20 pm

February 8, 2013 at 10:11 pm
I find Google to be a wonderful resource.
.
http://www.bws.bz/waste-water/
.
As an emerging democracy, it appears as though the wastewater treatment is relatively new. I would also suspect that there are septic systems used by the outlying areas. This is not uncommon. Even in our large city, the properties that are on the outskirts still use septic systems.
.
It looks like the larger touristy spots are the ones that use the treatment systems. I would imagine they are interested in keeping things relatively clean since they rely on so many tourists.
February 8, 2013 at 9:40 pm

February 8, 2013 at 8:36 pm
Thanks g&t.
…….now, where’s that ‘troll identifier’ manual?
LOL
February 8, 2013 at 8:32 pm
The crime scene was compromised on a grand scale. Any evidence they present now would be suspect and not hold up under the scrutiny of an extradition hearing.
.
The only person of authority in Belize who has even hinted at John being a suspect is Marco Vidal of the GSU. He in turn contacted Jeff Wise who was all too happy to spread it as fact. Interestingly, that version of the story broke seemingly before the people in Belize knew what was going on. Coincidence?
.
It would be interesting if someone could work up a timeline. What did Vidal know and when did he know it? When did he Contact Jeff Wise and why him?
.
There are already people willing to lie and present their “false memories”. We saw them on the Dateline special. Have these people never heard of videos? Or the Internet? Greg Faull’s parents claim they did not know who John was, or that his dogs were a problem. On Dateline they claim it was foremost on their son’s mind.
.
These supposedly upstanding members of the community had never come forward before with their certainty that Mr. Faull poisoned John’s dogs. I believe some of them even discounted it. Then roll the camera and they are throwing him under the bus. And claiming they are perfectly Ok with the poisoning because John wasn’t “one of them”. He with his women and guns and gangsters. They probably just didn’t like that he never came to their bar to drink the night away.
.
John is a prankster. A practical joker. But the one thing I have found is that he is serious about his sobriety. I respect that. I believe him when he says he has been clean and sober for over 30 years.
February 8, 2013 at 8:13 pm
Katie,
Some people are geographically challenged.
.
It is good that you can converse with people who are all on a level knowledge based playing field. How boring for you though. I enjoy talking to people who know more than I do, it helps me to grow. I also enjoy conversing with those who may not have my knowledge, it helps them grow.
.
The phrase was incorrect, the sentiment is not. Central America is also known for it’s corruption and unstable governments.
February 8, 2013 at 7:48 pm
I have a question for those who live in Belize or have lived there. Where does the sewage go? I never saw a water treatment plant….please don’t tell me it goes into the ocean….
February 8, 2013 at 6:15 pm
Fair enough
February 8, 2013 at 4:04 pm
Does it not occur to you that JM should be keeping all his cards and not expose them. It’s been fun to read what he shares but really, he should be keeping them either for commercial or legal reasons.
February 8, 2013 at 2:39 pm
We lost the teacher and the teaching assistant. Now I think we lost the room monitor!

@kevin…..
That was just un-readable.
Paragraphs are your friend!
February 8, 2013 at 1:30 pm
Yes we are agreeing that JM is being set up. There is no way anyone following along can believes misrepresentations in all news coverage. They have an agenda to railroad this man. We are lucky that such a brave and bold truthteller has taken the time to share all the evidence with us. Anyone can see John Mcafee is telling the truth! Just consider that this man was one of the geniuses behind the entire tech revolution then went to to do things most wimp men only dream about and all the while with fine females five hour marathon dipping and public intensity of a kind most humans simply cannot manifest. Yes they dare accuse John Mcafee without whom all computers would be pox ridden and pustulent with cialis spam and in/out exploits not merely of murder but of twisted carnalities of with rainforest street walkers and mangy curs? This is wrong! John Mcafee has the stones to live as a real one when most are cowards! JM never knew GF and never killed ANYONE. No one has ACCUSED JM of killing anyone. The REAL ISSUE here is the GOB and their corruption and ties to terrorism. The world needs to thank John Mcafee for his intell work on the situation down there so he could show our boys what the passport situation was preparing for. Basically your theory is that the GSU will frame JM by alleging Amy’s DNA was transferred to GF during some sort of act performed by JM on the deceased? That sounds exactly like the sort of smear expected from them but no one who has been to AC ever believed that John is all man and the women prove it all you have to do is ask them about five hours and steel on and one and for anyone to claim that spt or peev or any kind of nrcoto like that is part of the answer is just wrong too this stuff is not something a millionare mogul badass genius would do he would never do drugs and does not associate with people who do drugs. The truth will come out and the world will see the JM is not only an innocent man but a great philanthropist. I have only lived in Belize for 5 years John but I have heard amazing good things about you thank you so much and never give up ever.

The payment more likely will be in the form of real threats as a “take away’ … of freedom, livelihood, family, Life style.. and maybe even their own Lives.
February 8, 2013 at 12:09 pm
Mon ami – my english is not so good but what you said I must say it is very. John Mcafee is not a crime. John Mcafee is good person! What you write move my heart with love for good man. Thank you and thank John! I know so well also how the pv makes fast writing forever and on and so strange with shadows and confusions but still when you take hands from jhnson long enough to type us more we are so grateful. If there is more you can explain now my wife is happy too and reads in bed. Thank you. We thank John Mcafee also because so much dullness in here today but he is fast and rigid and up inside many many womens and we wish also. Thank you Mr. Mcafee sir and to the gob he is never going to surrender he is innocent. Thank you.
February 8, 2013 at 11:22 am
SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) Idk.lol 🙂 @Web, perhaps John was forced to change up and switch gears for awhile here now… What do you thing or feel? I think that he has to be agreeable in bigger picture fashion now. A fashion show way now partially/ fully to comply / also somehow to the general public / various legal problems. open up a can of worms, the whoopass kind.. and use it drastically to make things the same but different hopefully we all want better!! Is it harsh- fresh manure for more real and potential deadly threats? In a world gone haywire hooptie F-/up Hell bent crazy – These big events do can happen on any given day lifes uncertain..for us all…dont do me wrong i’m just saying..’m needing coffee (The Hinterland brand by John McAfee) he’s saying something wonderful by not saying anything at all! (another song) You think?? Silence is a sweet fragrance, a flower shop on a sunny day, a boutique or just something lovely for her, one dozzen roses, how about something beautiful just for you.
He has / needs – a reprieve, John back peddled or reversed from all this writers cramp audience for now is like saying hold the show hold your horse…Stop it (change everything) that’s my opinion / a notion in some old fashioned way he’s professionally business minded. He is reasoning with one, two or more groups of people, the authorities diligently asking questions thats one.. Two seeking needed facts, answers, wanting the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Not fragmented bits or scattered pieces but now he’s again a well positioned man Hey again now- and ready or not is scheduling meetings around the clock, full scopes big and small..getting honest with himself and less dishonest with himself – through utilizing gaming the system by political persuasion – throwing his weigh around..globe trotting doing interventions with all the powers that may be involved actually right now for everyones good and best interests. All the players..playing their roles like (who’s who in the zoo) John, my thought is in detailed discussions, weighing evidences, hammering things out, (It takes a big hammer to drive big nail!!) They’re deciding, listening, seeking new reviews of agreements made in fair,safe, surer ways some glorious solutions for conflict resolutions? Gotcha!..Digressing there wait, wait, wait..for a second, he’s on a number of topics, of different matters simultaneously -working on many levels running in the background with invisible multi-complexities, trying to reduce and under simplify the accounts, war lord monsters – let’s go fishing..buddy? ..i’m counting and naming my blessings i hope. The costs, avoiding penalties! Idk, is John Fed up with us here? His heart is in exile with Sam somewhere original? He’s extremely exhausted i bet, i imagine this reality shoe keeps us and maybe him too..sweating bullets – from here and over- there.. Just an armchair warrior native peaceful warrior like you all!! The John McAfee show is a regular weekly bi weekly series now gunpowder fresh packed with perilous world travels.. Monkey sounds hoo hoo ee eee in the background about right now to unfold mysteriously Blam ohh ohh ahh ahh again and again into the heart of deepest darkness Belize on my lunch break, craving a snack! This happens to my own darkest hour right this sizzle sizzle second…into a critical mass..of fearlessness traveled only by the few rare & courageous – brave souls no one except himself! (itself) Hero’s they need to heed – warnings maybe longing again that spring break or some critical clear path to walk again breath and enjoy life. A refreshing…pause, (critical path) break from this daily living on the edge scarey mind fuck shit / John’s – was in jungle a lover of disguises. How anyone can handle this much scandal is way beyond me! Tiring to think it through? Well for him the way out is to abandon ship.. with all the cops and robbers stuff.. Many stimulating questions here, a mere flesh wound here.more bad stuff coming at him? Another non- ending list of things to do! His public countless threats, they scorn him mock him..The shooting is now for a more specific & steady aim – fired up on his great life :)))
Of sanctions, injunctions, Running in the Background- now Today no gag orders to cease and desist! Call a cease fire on someone special? Could he be someplace kissing his lovely beautiful woman, ah yes i think ever so sweetly – loving her, embracing her, holding onto her for dear life.. Traveling light, dreaming, reminiscing (like me) He’s a 30 year AA guy like me seeking his Higher Power.. A gift of desparation! He’s just working ungodly hours.. Definetly In a safe house (home is where the heart is). He’s doing the big business fun stuff, like an international playboy, a jet setting playboy mansion built of adobe mud- hehehe out in no mans wonder land you know snakes and shit! Is John really saying..more?? no I think he’s saying less.. You think, just sequestering himself, finally with the love of his long hard won victory – Sam!!!!!Yup. Thats my belief in belief..Well, I hope and pray John is not hog tied in any discomfort from the cowboys again sweating a hot mess, against who knows who, himself for real this time? Who knows legal causes of action on this board – or anything to educate us legally really? I don’t know shit, I am not a qualified expert, I’m not going to pretend to be somebody impotent. I was just a carpenter & came from a long line of carpenters dating all the way back to biblical times.. take whatever i get be grateful for all of life..27 years of spanking nails! Just messed up (learning to use a pen) finally my own damn back.. This over-active imagination is that Mr. B, along with others including US favored new diplomacy guru rules being legislated, drafted or flagellated some gas got it passed – they just might have got him bent – over a barrel now! Know what i mean! Too many chiefs and not enough Indians! The reconnoitering of all the love you gave won’t bring you home and the life you save could be your own, mentality for self-preservation, ha ha.. The top dog officials, federal intelligence brilliant sources, special agency suits—teams of highly skilled individuals, bent on being duty minded, proficient trained experts, ok crack that whip! Whip it good its not too late…They execute motions against John, slap him down before a serious larger scale terorrist threat incident is about tenfold (hit just got real) vs. civil unrest, riot, worse relations for unprecedented international incident. The terrorist threat is no small thing my blogshere cyberspace companions…I learned it over 30 years ago as a French Comando trained combat ready youngster /, former Buck MP sgt..Trained constantly for six rigorous years on guard of nuclear warheads items vital to national security – nuclear weapons! Body counts here are lesser to global terrorist threat! (did I spell that right). Each person is important one person is a lot! One beautiful soul, every soul matters…I’m not a criminologist (i’m just a carpenter)! I think by some mean street method, a real course of minimum reasonable action should mandate forms of expedited pleadings, appeals, or specific types of sequential lawsuits could be used to choke hold John. Yup, wherever he may have ventured off to again, or was led to by his higher power or by his heals- (God forbid) that appears now to be forever undisclosed. I hope and pray John McAfee is not dead, better to be detained somewhere, in the Courts system held hostage under any new charges just pending threats of legal prosecution, than dead I suppose guess.. Ok I’m exaggerating fiction – Like flash boom we all become extradited under some gawd awful lawful orders or unlawful means.. Being the complete surrendered optimist that I am, John could have got promotion. See you later hopefully on the flip side. John come back please as the head here, friend and foe alike- us all, walking like a big dog, a giant, standing tall in bliss once again we miss you here!!.what the hell did I just write??

Looks like we have seen the calm before the storm. Now that Mr. Mcafee has revealed to the world the Iranian-Belizean terror connection they will have nothing left to lose. Probably the indictment is being prepared to send over to Interpol even now. There has been much time in which to have all types of evidence manufactured. My guess is that the DNA swabs from GF’s personal region will be claimed to match the DNA sample provided by Amy, who will then in turn assert that this is transfer material carried over by JM as he ministered to Greg. Of course without samples of JM’s DNA the corrupt GSU will be unable to falsify the evidence and they will have to play some more cards. The real question is: who will they be able to pay enough to lie outright and claim that they were aware of a deeper relationship between the two men? Who will they be able to pay to perjure themselves and make JM out to be a drug addicted pedo-type?? Who among the bar girls and expats will be so eager for 30 pieces of silver that they will betray John with whatever the GSU tells them to say?? THAT my friends is the question….that is the question…..
February 8, 2013 at 11:18 am
SA not CA….probably a slip of the fingers/mind, not an indication of stupidity on Jag’s part. SMH
Katie, I have personally apologized to you, I & others have welcomed your views with open arms….even enjoyed them…. and you have been treated fairly and with kindness.
So it is with great confusion that I read your last few comments…..are you trying to be rude and condescending, is that your normal type of response, or would you say that I am interpreting the written words incorrectly?(yet again)
February 8, 2013 at 10:35 am
All “South of the Border” to some…true….true….But you know Katie how things are here. When powerful men try to extort a computer pioneer like John Mcafee Belize cannot expect the world to remain silent. John is an innocent man who was doing great work for people in this country. Some might think he deserved honors rather than damnation – maybe a statue to honor his work in wiping out drug abuse and protecting vulnerable young women from ruthless sex traffickers. Some might think PM Barrow would THANK John for doing so much for ordinary Belizeans and for showing off Belizean assets to the world, but no – what we get is tabloid lies about female viagra and zoophilia and ludicrous depravity. Who in their right mind would imagine that a man of JM’s amazing fortitude who had been drug free and completely on the record as totally anti drug could possibly be serious about producing a super coke sex drug and having sex with dogs?? Please! We know John is a good man – a man of ideas and action where other men are limp. Belize owes John Mcafee a huge debt and someday they will understand that!
February 8, 2013 at 10:24 am
Well Katie you get around I see. For the benefit of other readers Katie is a Belize travel consultant. Therefore apriori, anything she posts about Belize is non sequitor. In brief Belize is #6 on the global intentional homicide hit parade, carries a 45% poverty rating, and cannot be rated on the corruption perception index since 2008 (where it was 112) as it is the ONLY country worldwide not to have the required 3 sources of data for transparency international. i lived there for 5 years working as a medical practitioner and having treated folks from the family of the former D.P.M to broken down cane workers. It is an interesting place to visit (well mostly) but not at all a place to relocate. Panama and Costa Rica are miles ahead in all respects.

February 8, 2013 at 9:23 am
Hold on everyone, let’s put some real numbers to the test, shall we?
MINIMUM WAGEs per hour
Belize: $3.30 BZ = $1.15 US
USA : $7.65-$9.19 US = $8.50 US (average)
France : £9.40 = $12.57 US ( $25.14 BZ)
GAS PRICES per gallon
Belize: $13.50 BZ = $6.75 US
USA : $3.15-$3.74 US = $3.45 US (average)
France : $6.80-$8.00 US = $7.40 US (average) (easier to use numbers already converted from liters to gallons) Necessary then to note that the Imperial gallon is larger than the US gallon, which could slightly skew the true (US $$) cost of gas in France.
USING US $$
So in Belize, making $1.15/hr your gas costs $6.75/gal
or almost 6X YOUR HOURLY WAGE
In the USA, making $8.50/hr your gas costs $3.45/gal
or LESS THAN HALF YOUR HOURLY WAGE
In France, making $12.57/hr your gas costs $7.40/gal
or a little MORE THAN HALF YOUR HOURLY WAGE
🙁 🙁 🙁
February 8, 2013 at 8:27 am
I take it the evidence for this is with all of the other evidence you supposedly gave to the website administrator months ago but which surprisingly never got posted?
February 8, 2013 at 6:14 am
I found the poorest didn’t have vehicles. They packed them on yellow school buses like sardines. We rented a vehicle for 1 week. It was over $800! We were required to purchase insurance for an additional $800. We filled up daily because everything was so far away in different directions. Our hotel charged a gas fee on all excursions in addition to the cost. I saw a lot of locals riding bikes.
February 8, 2013 at 6:13 am
who is john mcafee? please tell me
February 8, 2013 at 5:20 am
Jag-get your atlas out. Belize is in Central America, not South America. Its simple basic info like this no one bothers to check , as well as the more serious accusations and wrong impressions. I have these discussions with Belize people all the time, but at least we are conversing on a level knowledgable playing field.
February 8, 2013 at 1:49 am
Wow, thanks!
February 8, 2013 at 1:39 am
Looks to me that this blog is finally re-awakening.
…
My theory: an earlier opening for critical voices would have brought far more life. As JM said: You need the enemies…
…
Now the comments view is limiting, the readability has to be adjusted.
February 8, 2013 at 1:20 am
Rogue Cop?, more like off the rails ex-cop. So yeah he shot a few people and is on the run. They found his vehicle already and are doing a house by house search. There are several groups out in full force looking for him…..
Meanwhile back in Belize, how is that ballistics test coming? It’s been 3 months. Do they have any suspects yet? Did they happen to track down the stolen electronics which basically have geo locators built in?
..
And before anyone says John, he has never been a suspect.Just someone they want to question. But given that they will not do the questioning remotely, I don’t think information is what they want.
.
Belize is both an emerging democracy and a poor nation.There are many problems and I feel many of the upper residents are in denial. John just could not be, and it has cost him dearly for caring.
February 8, 2013 at 1:05 am
Come to Europe. $6.75 a gallon for gas is a bargain.
February 8, 2013 at 12:47 am
As I was reading speculations above of an intricate McAfee movie/book plan I couldn’t help but think how far from Occam’s razor that is… and that at this very moment he’s most likely in primate mode.
February 8, 2013 at 12:26 am
THOSE ARE EXPERIENCES BELIZE IS PROVIDING FOR ME. I GET THOSE FOR FREE EVERY DAY.
…
I live since about 12 years in Belize and I am married to a Belizean. Just for the books: She is 23 years younger than me. She will soon finish her MBA and she would definitely not fit in JM’s harem. We respect each other, support each other and we learn form each other on a daily base. This is what keeps our relationship very lively.
…
Within the years I learned about several mutual misunderstands between Belizeans and Non-Belizeans.
…
Example low-level corruption: When I arrived in Belize, my Non-Belizean friends told that I should bribe with a 100 USD and then I would get a driver’s license immediately and without any problems. I went there, the traffic officers were very helpful, we had a nice chat and they gave me some regulations to learn for the test. No word about a bribe. 3 days later I made the test and again everybody was nice again. So I got my driver’s license legally for maybe 15 USD. My Non-Belizean friends were shocked, the legal way with doing a test would have never been an option for them. They did not know how easy this test is and that you don’t have to feel as a looser if you don’t take every shortcut.
….
This is a good example how corruption and some of the bad “White Man”-reputation is founded. A Belizean will never understand why someone would waste 100 USD for something he could get so easily. So he starts to think, that all “White People” are filthy rich. And the Non-Belizean is thinking how backward and how corrupt Belizeans are because he has to only 100 USD and he gets a precious thing like a driver’s license.
…
At the end, if a traffic officer takes the bribe, nobody will get harmed. He knows that the traffic outside Belize is far heavier and that the contestant has a reputable driver’s experience and know the rules which are anyway worldwide more or less the same. Additional to the 100 USD he will then cash the fees for the license and this will be paid into the governmental account. So everybody is pleased.
…
By coincidence I know Jenny Tanner, police officer who got caught demanding a 100 USD and 2 margaritas in Caye Caulker. This wasn’t very nice and very clever what she did and she will probably loose her job over it. Somehow it is funny because of the margaritas, I guess that she was already nice up to ask such things.
…
Now the guy paid the bribe, he reported the case and Jenny Tanner is now under investigation. So sorry to all hard critiques of Belize—the system seems to work, justice is on the way. What more do you want?
…
Jenny is not an evil person. One time she came after I called and complained about some really noisy neighbours. She had to come several times and she had to deal with a crowd of maybe 50 people, but finally she were shutting them down at 5 in the morning. This wasn’t easy and she did a good job. Next time when I saw her I invited her for a drink. I hope nobody will accuse me for of post-bribing…
…
I have also seen her already dealing with a troublesome young boy of the neighbourhood. She had arrested him a few days ago. She went after him as a privet person and tried to mediate like a social worker. Later I talked to her and she explained to me that she sees his problems and that she wants to help. You would wish then, that all police officers would feel responsible like her.
…
When you read on facebook the comments about her case you get frightened. There are some strange people who accuse the guy who reported her. Some are biased on this racist “Withes are filthy rich fools”-thinking , others want to use it as a reminder that police officers are underpaid. This is very difficult to understand as a Non-Belizean. I believe this is part of a low-level political discussion culture with excuses for everybody. Probably it will change automatically with better education.
…
Belize is not the paradise as a lot of Belizeans want to believe . But it is also not the hell as JM is describing it. The truth is always in between, you have to dig for it.
…
I could not choose the country where I was born, but I could choose the country where I live. This is Belize and I am grateful that I am allowed to live here. And yes, once in a while it is difficult. It can be so difficult that I would like to leave. But then, when things calmed down, I fall in love again. Belize must a female…
…
I could now write and write and write. About politicians, about kids, about civil servants, about NGO-people, about business people, about constructors, about Garifunas, about East Indians, about Mayans, about Mennonites, about teenage gold diggers, about family, about funerals, about bus rides, about… You name it, to everything I can tell you stories.
..
Those are experiences Belize is providing for me. I get those for free every day. But I use common sense, I avoid troubles, I don’t brag, I don’t take drugs, I am polite, I am respectful. This is the best guarantee that my life here is not getting troublesome.
February 8, 2013 at 12:17 am
Now, that’s approaching arrogance. Guess we pumped you up overmuch.
Many of us have travelled a great deal to challenging destinations. Even lived in them. To count this as insufficient to make comments begins to show Your insular lack of respect for worldly, educated. open-minded people.
February 7, 2013 at 11:22 pm
lol ¯_(ツ)_/¯
February 7, 2013 at 10:10 pm
Thanks WEB, very good finding! Here also as downloadable PDF:
http://dbzchild.org/uploads/docs/complete_pgmale_social_participation_and_violence_in_urban_belize_grand.pdf
…
I haven’t read it yet, but I believe that everybody should consume this before blaming the government. Crime starts in the family and in the neighborhood. All those calls for more governmental or non-governmental action redirect from our own responsibility to set up values and goals, to follow common rules, and —if necessary—to remind our youths to obey those.
…
In simple words: If a little boy would have stolen something 20 years ago, the parent would have known it within one hour. Today people look away because they don’t care. The common excuse: the little boy might come back after them with a gun.
…
But how to enforce a change back to working neighborhoods?
February 7, 2013 at 9:42 pm
Yes, you are right. Sorry about that.
February 7, 2013 at 9:41 pm
Hope you are doing well, John McAfee!
Lot of long winded comments here and no official replys from you for a awhile.
To the so called residents of Belize, South America is famous for it’s corruuption in general. Many high tech companies are hesitant to deal with South American countries because of the corruption and theft at the borders. It’s an accepted function to bribe officials at the borders to ship packages if you want to do business with any South American countries.
So far I have seen nothing that indicates that John McAfee is guilty of anything. This is juct another typical example of a corrupt South American country trying to exploit or otherwise persecute a wealthy foreigner.
February 7, 2013 at 8:13 pm
hmmmmm…..so many options come to mind. Were you thinking of something specific? lol
February 7, 2013 at 8:08 pm
Thank you Sandwillow….beautifully said. 🙂
February 7, 2013 at 7:46 pm
LMFAO….not the keyboard, John. ツ ッ ツ
February 7, 2013 at 7:42 pm
ty 😉 I love the way your mind works and your ability to vocalize it. If you don’t already, you could easily write for a living.
I too ask myself what has me so enthralled, so enamored with this tale? Is my life so boring that this is my only……? Hardly. Am I just a hopeless romantic at heart? Yes, but there hasn’t been nearly enough of it to warrant my rapture. Has the story of Belize truly touched me? Yes, although I still can’t pinpoint exactly why, when I am troubled by all mistreatment/strife/oppression/hunger & poverty/abuse/etc. occurring in the World every minute. This and more remains a mystery to me….
And the true intent? The ever shifting ~ never changing, the often divergent ~ always alike
story, and it’s teller, accused of inconsistencies, providing sometimes congruous, other times antagonistic replies.
Has it changed or is it the same? I just don’t know. Only John McAfee knows. Or does he?
One thing I do know, is that for now, it continues to hold my attention as it does yours. (‾▿‾) (/‾▿‾)/ (‾▿‾) (/‾▿‾)/
btw, for anyone able to help, ‘c’ put up a request for help with 4 desktop computers (for Belize) in a previous post (Wave of Murders &….). I asked if they needed to be new, but have not seen a reply yet. We all seem to gravitate to the newer posts, so if anyone sees this and can help ‘c’ , let him know. 🙂
February 7, 2013 at 7:01 pm
$6.75 US/gallon isn’t a lot to you? That’s almost double what I pay!!! For someone to be making minimal wages and have to pay that much for gas would be difficult if not impossible. It’s no wonder that “a drop” is a common occurrence. And that beans and rice are “cheap as hell” is not much consolation either. 🙁
To me, your statement corresponds with, not contradicts what BB&B said.
ps…I’ve seen the ads for internet service and it’s outrageous cost…..no words to describe my horror.
February 7, 2013 at 5:59 pm
I think John’s doing a social engineering experiment on my comments LMAO
February 7, 2013 at 5:57 pm
respectfully, I don’t see your ill’s as the same. From what I’m reading , and I could be wrong, secondary schools aren’t free to all citizens. I read that the loan interest rates were very high and not easy to comprehend. I read that many parents trying to get an education for their children were duped into these loans and lost their homes and farms.
In the US we have big problems but a K-12 education is free, no unifrms reqired unless one chooses a traditional school. In most school in my state free breakfast and lunch is provided for those in need.
I’ve also read that the government allowed and may have aided in the monopolies of several businesses: soft drinks, beer, internet, are there more? While there are some monopolies in this country they come under scrutiny and the prices are regulated if they are proven to be a monopoly.
One rouge ex-cop doesn’t define our problems here. But, you are correct, we have many things to fix here. Getting food to the hungry in large cities is difficult but we try and we keep trying.
You’re there you know the answers. Are there volunteers in Belize that go into the rough areas to make sure children don’t go hungry? Are there social workers that put their lives in danger to check on a child that might be suffering abuse in Belize? Is there anyone trying to get young girls out of prostitution and into school? Because there are people like that here, lots of them.
I hope Belize can fix their problems, we don’t belong there. But if Americans stop vacationing in Belize until there is improvement it might have a positive effect, would that be so bad?

Interesting…… 2 1/2 yrs later and there is a distinct parallel between his words then and the current situation in Belize, at least some aspects of it.
Do scroll down to the comments, you won’t be disappointed. I found the context enlightening, (seeing peeps complain about the very troubles trying to be dispelled currently), and took special note of the posters themselves, who were engaged, informed, vocal, and maybe even familiar? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

We are starting to bore even ,ourselves… thanks
February 7, 2013 at 4:11 pm
You are showing the world John! How silly of people to underestimate you or doubt your word about the corrupt situation in Belize! I have friends who have done business there for many years and they tell me everything you say is true! The lying mainstream media thinks they can slander you. They make up crazy stories about piles of tan peevee supersexy drug, of teen orgies with guns and dog sex, making you out to be a gangster or crazy man. Well we DO NOT believe these lies. Everything in your actions has shown you to be a GENTLEMAN and an pillar of old fashioned American spunk! Less people wish they could be you and so they are jealous and hate on you. Well forget about your haters! JM is a hero not a pervert or a drug addict! We stand behind you always Sir! Keep fighting the good fight!! God Bless You!!!!
February 7, 2013 at 4:02 pm
Opps, I deleted my closing line..
As Time goes on ..instead of asking
Who is McAfee?
Will we be asking ? McAfee Who?
We all get our 5 minutes of fame
but it is fleeting… and so soon forgotten as yesterday’s news. Perhaps he has a longer shelf life than most …His name is, McAfee , after all…. and he is certainly , notorious ..
“in his own right “
February 7, 2013 at 3:42 pm
@Web, you more than any of us has kept this blog alive and stimulating with your research and comments thru the many lull’s in JM posting.
However, I have to agree.. this is getting boring, a rehash of the same ole’ … speculations, guessing game, opinions and theories
Maybe it has served its purpose?
We came here to hear the Who is McAfee story , in his own words… and he goes missing for whatever the reasons Why.
Maybe he is finding the comments boring as well and had higher hopes for our sleuthing talents, inside info and comments. .. Maybe he no longer chooses to participate in the comment and blogging portion of the exercise? and finds answering our questions tedious, testy .and a waste of time (He does appear to get bored easily and his attention just moves in another direction)
Understandable, he must be busy with more important matters to his survival and well being
At one point, JM stated that if he was caught and incarcerated that there was enough prewritten material to keep the blog going for a long time. Maybe its time he pulls out some of those expose’s and writing ,(unless he is saving it for more commercial enterprises such as books , movies ect ., which is understandable. ) .
We have to ask ourselves why are we here?
for our entertainment, idle curiosity , boredom in our own lives, a voyuer adventure , or a genuine concern for Belize and Justice for all?
That question is getting harder and harder for me to answer , day be day. Im not sure I know the true intent of Who is McAfee.. at this point in time.
Your either in , or your Out, it either holds our attention or we move on …. its simple really
One way or another it was a brilliant idea ..
February 7, 2013 at 3:38 pm
WHAT? I just came back state side. I own out there and stay half the year.
Gas is 13.50 BZ that is 6.75 US.
Rice and beans are cheap as hell.
I eat for about $6 us dollars a day. And I eat very, very well.
I love your outsider view.
February 7, 2013 at 3:27 pm
I disagree. Genius is for me taking new strategies in place using your experience more efficient than others. Intuition seems to be for me an instrument for emergency decisions. But I am certainly not a philosopher….
February 7, 2013 at 3:21 pm
Nah, for a book I guess you would need to know more about the background. Only JM knows, but I do not think that he want to share detailed data or experiences.
February 7, 2013 at 2:18 pm
Dear John,
Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!
LOL Katie, listen and learn, speak and remain Ignorant. There are people willing to share opinions & experience at all levels with humans willing to listen and learn.
Dr. Johnny., we miss you and keep you in our thoughts and prayers!
Trying to get the hell out of Boston before the BIG storm have to run.
Lead, eat, sleep & MOVE!
Sincerely,

I am an American who spent 7 yrs on San Pedro. I sit on my computer. But I can also state first hand tha the corruption and the lack of due process is astounding. It is part of the culture. And necassary for survival – or let me rephrase. It is the only way you can come become rich. Andhe few at the top are getttingt very very rich. I promise I speak not out of jealousy. I have lived a privileged life. I speak from experience. The Country of Belize is a complete MESS.
February 7, 2013 at 1:41 pm
I see a trend with pm bsrrow and rich white men…Ashcroft…Mcafee….humpf :/
February 7, 2013 at 1:07 pm
@katie Valk. Point well expressed and well taken , Katie.
However, my friends who still live in Belize,
Natives and expats alike , tell me that unless there is some pressure put upon the Powers that Be from the outside, from other Governments , human rights activists and organizations, nothing will change. It hasn’t changed for years and the problems are escalating day after day.
It would appear that you would want all the “outside” funding, support and publicity you can obtain to make the necessary changes, some of which you yourself have advocated for . Sometimes it takes as long as it takes, and sometimes you can push the River for change
February 7, 2013 at 12:41 pm
maybe when you grow up….:)
February 7, 2013 at 12:20 pm
Pls, Belize is just a microcosm or your macrocosm. California today has a rogue cop on the loose who murdered his captains daughter and gunning for more. We really do appreciate your beneficent concern for our country, but trust me, Belizeans have a better capacity to recognize and abilty to fix our problems, than any of you do from afar. Our ills are the same as yours, so until you have learned to repair your own, your advice is appreciated, but not required. We have many engaged and far better educated Belizeans who are working on it while you sit at your computer and judge us without the faintest idea of what the problems are and solutions at hand.
February 7, 2013 at 11:58 am
I agree. His name wasn’t mentioned in the police report either. Things just don’t happen this fast there.
February 7, 2013 at 11:44 am
The GOB will stop at nothing! How can the world be woken up to the truth about what the Barrow gvmt is about?? How can the press be made to see beyond the distractions of all these completely false accusations of murder and sex drugs and bestiality and everything else?? JM is an innovator and a free thinker – the sort of person the world NEEDS. It is criminal that he is persecuted this way!
February 7, 2013 at 11:04 am
McAfee, McAfee, Where for art thou, McAfee?
If the chatter is accurate, you’re back in Portland…..however, remembering the source keeps me skeptical, lol. We’ve missed you, and if in fact your vacation with Sam has ended for now, are more than ready for the next installment. If you’re still enjoying some R & R, can you come up for air long enough to post something? 😉

At one point in time, I considered living in Belize
I traveled extensively, from North to South, East to West, for several years, looking for a soft place to land. I rented humble houses , even stayed at fancy resorts along the way. I talked with lots of folks, Natives, ex-pats and tourists.Naturally, they all had their own experiences and stories to tell.
On the plane coming and going there were always many Christian missionaries , working with the poor communities and children. They had so many horror stories about malnutrition, child and spousal abuse, sex slaves, gang wars, the carnage and injustice, lack of education and economic opportunities .
Yet ,when talking with ex-pats or tourists, it was invisible to the eye and personal experience. (Also.. Belize is very expensive! they have to ship everything in. Gas was
$ 8US , food prices outrageous, even for rice and beans, it was more expensive than in the US. Property, rentals and housing were equal to some high end parts of the US.)
How are the poor able to feed themselves with such low wages and no jobs.
As time went on, and I saw the good and the Bad of it… and the declining safety factor, the expense, I decided it was not for me.
Yes, these injustices occur everywhere in the world and even in the good ole USA, the land of opportunity (? ) But because the population is so small, it is a microcosm of injustice everywhere. JM said in one of his posts that if we can make a difference in the quality of life and freedom in a small county like Belize, it can be an inspiration for All . Change can take along time, or it can happen in a single moment of courage
Belize is such a beautiful country. Still on the list of the most desired tourist destinations, even with all the bad publicity of late.
When Mother Teressa was asked how we could achieve world peace, she said, “go home and take care of your family.”
Because, I love Belize, and have many friends who live there, they have become my extended family , and I care for their well being , safety and freedom. That is Why I am here on this blog, as well as my curiosity and discovery of Who is McAfee.
February 7, 2013 at 10:47 am
I wonder the same thing….
Hopefully JM sees the need for a link between Belize & ‘us’, and will keep this blog going to facilitate that. With that said, there is so much more story to tell that this blog shouldn’t be anywhere near it’s end. Only John knows…….
I like the analogy….”like living in a village” 🙂

Yes he is I told Mrs. K my teacher that when Im older I want a compound with a bunch of girls and guns and dogs and no parents and she laughed at me but I mean it Mr Mcafee is rad and I am learning a lot. Thank you sir.

DB, just as I was ready to respond to Katie, I saw your post. Thank you for your insightful perspective….if I remember correctly you are fully qualified to speak on this. The vilification of John by his neighbors remains more than mystery to me, and makes me wonder what JM has on them, lol. I saw a bar in AC for sale the other day…….hmmmm.
Thanks again DB, hope all remains well.
Katie, I’d like to apologize. Without malice, but also without consideration, I have made generalizations and assumptions about your home. I can only imagine that I might not be as polite as you in defending mine. I’m sorry. It was never my intention to offend you or your Country.
And while there are others who live there, who do hold an adverse opinion, that does not negate your reality any more than yours does theirs. There are obviously good and bad ‘parts of town’ where you live, just like the countries we live in. So, I don’t think ALL of Belize is an undernourished & impoverished country by any means…..just too much of it. You are obviously fortunate for being both employed (well) and able to be vocal. The last group of Belizeans I saw getting vocal (video) with the police had a barrage of bullets fired in response to a thrown bottle (nowhere near any of them).
I do think that ‘your Government(s)’ have done you no favors since your Independence, each successively finding more and bolder ways to line their own pockets. In reality, conditions could be so much better than they are. I see the Government greed as an unnecessary depressant, designed to keep you down, when Belize has so much potential to thrive were it to be governed honestly. And yes, you’re a young country ….too young to be in such deep financial shit. An inquiry into what’s gone so terribly wrong in such a short period would be beneficial to moving forward from this point.
The Belize newspaper stories and accompanying comments from locals acknowledge the litany of difficulties and reflect condemnation of the Authorities for their actions. Again, this doesn’t alter or devalue your experience..perhaps verbalizing is my way of trying to understand the huge difference of opinion you have with so many others?
You sound to me like a level headed, strong willed woman who isn’t going to just roll over. Ever thought about a career in politics?
Some things I have wondered when reading your words: If you make a ‘nice living’ does that come at a price? In other words, do all your friends & family enjoy the same standard of living as you? Do they at least have the same opportunities to succeed that you had? Are you guarded because you have so much more? Do you worry that you too could be a victim at some point? Do you believe every citizen of Belize has an opportunity to better their lives should they wish to exercise it? Are you really happy with the state of affairs in Belize, or were you just doing what is natural, defending your home?
Thanks Katie. 🙂

Isn’t it interesting that instead of firing these bad apples who abuse their power, they just transfer them from department to department . Doesn’t really solve the problem , does it .

Thanks for bringing up the people interviewed who were in the bar. I was shocked when I heard their responses. I can’t imagine hearing someone say they did something horrific to any creature and continuing to sit and drink with that person, It’s not normal behavior.
Even if I detested my neighbor I would have run to his home to help him put the dogs down.
I really, really don’t understand those “bar people”.
February 7, 2013 at 4:07 am
I wonder whats going to happen to the community when john is found not guilty ?
Will john allow us to speculate other worldly matters on this reader board ?
I do like reading the banter between the in crowd and the purists and the sheert trolls that ate causing IP issues.. Its like living in a village !
February 6, 2013 at 11:37 pm
It’s all in the minds eye and your vision app-Ears.
I appreciate your commentary as well and the truth has no competition.
February 6, 2013 at 10:44 pm
Your reference to JM “acting intuitive” reminds me of a quote from the Max Zorin character in a certain Bond flick though the theme of the movie could apply as well. 😐
“Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.”
That was a good one on many counts past’n-present.

Thinking?……… thinking of writing a book? 😉
February 6, 2013 at 10:27 pm
Belize recently received forensics equipment from the US and is supposedly training an ‘individual’ on it’s use, though if the tech is in the wrong hands, it could be useless, or worse, used to frame one. All fingerprints are digitally archived and if one has access to another’s digital fingerprint, they could cut and paste at their discretion incriminating evidence against anyone. There have already been legal precedents established to confirm this to be legit. All forensics examinations/findings should be carefully audited by a consortium of folks chosen/elected by the people. This tech could be easily abused regardless of legally established precedents either within the country or from without.
February 6, 2013 at 10:19 pm
Lmfao JM is a good teacher. 😉
February 6, 2013 at 10:15 pm
I remember reading this…..completely shocking. The GOB seems to have its own set of rules, and fears no one or nothing. (The Caribbean Court reprimanded them but imposed no consequences for their deplorably shady actions with Telemedia in December). Who will reign them in?
My, what a lovely family those Barrows are.

I agree completely with you, you couldn’t have said it better, Katie.
February 6, 2013 at 9:34 pm
I have a relative that is involved with designing these lil flying machines. They are increasingly trending into the nano-tech scale. Image-in a dragonfly or a knat flying around one’s headroom with audio/visual/gps/tracking/tracing and targeting capabilities. The dragonfly version is already in the testing phase for rollout in a jurisdiction near few.

On Super Bowl Sunday, I had to work. So I faked a heart attack! Took me out on a stretcher, and I was home for the kickoff! Thanks John.;)
February 6, 2013 at 9:06 pm
If Mr. McAfee were to return to BZ. while the current administration is in ‘force’, he might consider having an armed interpol agent or two assist him in his journey for justice.
They would have the appropriate jursidiction for protection and representation (working in conjunction with a trusted attorney in BZ. I certainly do not believe the GOB wishes for JM to go to court as he has much more evidence against the GOB for a whole host of crimes and this is not speculation but fact and increasing daily. Often in situations such as this, guilty politicians flee the country and seek refuge under an alias with witness protection or rather legal protection from prosecution.
February 6, 2013 at 8:55 pm
Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately, when the Rule of Law has no place in a society, the ‘victims’ time and again find no other recourse but violent justice as one has a Creator given right to defend oneself. I often wonder how a tyrant can find satisfaction in life when they must live in constant paranoia with guards following their every move removing any semblance of privacy/peace of mind. The rich and poor are punished in mysterious ways. The Conscience, by design, is priceless as a yin to a yang with karmic repercussions.
Off topic though has anyone else seen a ufo or two in BZ. lately? The sightings seem to be increasing lately. Whether man-made or ‘other’ is the question of the day. From what I understand, Disclosure is near. We live in exciting times eh? Stick around, much more to come soon enough.
JM, would you consider changing the word ‘submit’ to send for posting commentary as the former does not apply amongst free-dom minded folk.
L8ter &…..

Don’t leave home without it?
Today’s gps and satellite technology can not only track one in real time but can focus in on an individual when one’s vital signs show ‘stress’.
How this works is infosec/opsec though necessary in such a situation as this. Today, there are satellites that utilize this technology that can see the pimple on one’s nose if/when necessary. When there are rogue agents within law enforcement, as is obvious in BZ. at the moment, this technology can be critical. It is currently in use with high value assets on or off official payrole and used by those with means/contacts within the DoD as with other applications.
Posted above is a link to only one ‘commercially’ available application. The AG or attorney general of your/one’s jurisdiction could possibly assist you with this JM. The Dept. of Naval intelligence and Northcom use this technology in association with DARPA engineers. Not to worry JM, as from what I understand, this case, as others have the attention of multiple agencies of concern as this case has opened up a whole pile of worms involving multiple levels of interest. I was surprised to discover that the mere mention of Belize to some country-folk (4 unrelated individuals) in the Southern US mentioned your case/blog in reference to hearing the name BZ. The world Is paying attention and eventually justice will be served on many levels.

@Gaby
Belize is NOT a third world country. They were once part of the British empire and now are an Independent Nation.
.
Belize is a parliamentary democracy, a Commonwealth realm, and therefore a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.
.
They have an educational system that includes the University of Belize. I would assume that their health and education system would be similar to other former British colonies, meaning government funded. We have read accounts though that children cannot go to school without uniforms so if they cannot afford the uniform… you get the picture.
.
Tourism is their largest source of income so you can see why they would not want bad press that may keep tourists away. I am not so sure they would want to present an image of themselves as being primitive in the areas of technology/healthcare/police.
.
Mr. McAfee donated quite a bit of goods to the local police instead of giving them money. I can understand his approach. When you watch the news reports, as people have linked to here, they don’t even have proper body bags for the corpses. I find it hard to believe that they don’t even have a microscope to perform proper ballistic comparison after they dug up John’s dogs and chopped off their heads, presumably to do a ballistic comparison. Really? I am not a ballistics expert but I think you can tell the difference between a 9mm slug, a .38 slug and a shotgun shell fairly easily…yes?
.
@Katie
I enjoy reading differing points of view, it is what creates healthy conversation. You said John’s neighbors were happy he is gone? I have had annoying neighbors. That is part of living in a society, sorry. Some of us are unique. You may not like us, or understand us… but we don’t ask you to. Society makes laws and cultural norms. We live within them. There are proper channels for redress if someone does not. That is how it works in a polite society.
.
The dateline episode gave us a glimpse into these neighbors. They seemed to think it was perfectly OK for Mr. Faull to have poisoned John’s dogs. BTW I do not believe he did. Who can say, dead men do not talk. But these neighbors sure are throwing Mr. Faull under the bus.
.
Polite societies do not tolerate animal cruelty. You can tell a lot about a person by the way they treat those who they consider less than themselves, such as an animal or a child. I would not want to be around a group of people who think that poisoning a dog is acceptable, would you?
February 6, 2013 at 7:15 pm
Thank you for posting. I enjoyed your view. Believe it or not, I too get bored on this blog. The story being told is like wizarding chess from Harry Potter played with real people. There is so much that we don’t know yet and it has to be revealed in its own time. Have you noticed that every move the PM is about to make is trumped by JM? He has to use his tactics and strategy’s wisely. The blog is user-friendly and allows players of all abilities to enjoy the game. When the story first started it was thrilling and stressful. We were on a minute by minute timeline most of the time. It was action filled because we were watching as JM literally ran for his life. Now we wait and watch. Every move calculated. When he first started the blog, it was the only outlet he had to get “his” story out in his own words because the MSM had their own agendas.
I too am glad we have new people posting – Sandwillow and Katie. I looked at Dr. Gayle’s report. It is ashamed that it was published in 2010 and nothing has been done to remedy the situation. The things he pointed out that were wrong are worse now.
A quote on Third world vs. developing nations from the internet: “The term “Third World country” has gone ever so slightly out of fashion. It is considered, by many, to be politically incorrect and insensitive, trampling on the aspirations of the less fortunate nations by segregating them into their own “world”.”
“The popular term, these days, is “developing nation”. Much more hopeful-sounding, isn’t it?”
When I travelled in Belize in the fall, I didn’t see starving people with their hair falling out. What I did see shocked me though. The little wooden shacks where people lived were deplorable. Most homes didn’t have electricity. The families lived in 1 room. Mattresses were on the floor. Most of the roads were dirt and full of pot holes except for the main highways. We saw people washing their clothes in a river. A person joked that it was the Belize Laundromat. Then boom, we turned the corner in Placencia and there were mansions with guarded gates, Yachts, boat docks, tiled roofs, Etc. It is a country of contrast indeed.
Quote directly from John about Belize, “Due to the economic situation, there is rampant poverty and privation. The powerful accumulate the wealth and spread it to their own families. The rest have little. This imbalance could not exist if the law had teeth and the powerful were obliged to follow it.”

The recent GOB vs. Oceana case involving oil ‘concessions’ appears to be of short memory.
It is unlawful for Denys Barrow to be representing the defendants when his family is heavily involved in the oil concessions business. He should recuse himself or be recused due his family being the recipient/beneficiary to multiple oil block concessions unlawfully obtained as seen in the link above. This is beyond outrageous people. How could these ‘attorneys’ still be practicing law and not in prison?
February 6, 2013 at 6:26 pm
I read with a cynical eye those who post here, who are in the Belize tourism business, real estate business, or own property in Belize, which they do not wish to see devalued. They have their livelihoods or properties to protect, so of course they wish John to be silent. If they are assisting in bringing tourism and investor money into the country, why then wouldn’t they be on the good side of the government, enjoying a much better relationship than many others? It is stated that John’s former neighbors are glad he is gone, well, there have been quite a few Belizeans who have posted here, and on other sites, who appear to support John’s accounting of the conditions there. Some who are even brave enough to support John. I don’t know how anyone who has bothered to do the research can dispute many of the facts, unless they have a position or business to protect. How is it possible for anyone in Belize, and more specifically, Ambergris Caye, to know without a doubt, that John has to be the guilty party in the Faul murder, when all of the investigative efforts of law enforcement have not been able to turn up any evidence which substantiates his guilt? It can be believed that the neighbors may have not liked John’s lifestyle, his armed guards, his barking dogs, his young lady friends, and therefore would be glad he is gone. But to dislike somebody so much, that they are willing to call him a murderer, without any evidence, is contemptible, IMHO. If they have concrete facts, since they just KNOW it was John, then share it with the police. Thanks for asking for opinions, that is mine.
February 6, 2013 at 6:02 pm
UNREAL…. Looks like Ashcroft had his little fingers in every questionable pie possible.
That the Brits are bristling now at his connections may be a political move, but it may also attract curious minds into the fold. Then it will be fair game. British papers can be relentless in their pursuit of a story…does Ashcroft hold any celebrity save in his own mind? 😉
Is this where the passports of the ‘Lebanese’ came from? If so, and it’s legal, why was one (+ ?) issued under a deceased Belizean’s name? And why was his DL # higher than the one last recorded by the gov’t? How much of the £32K does the GOB get? And who benefits from them letting ‘who knows who?’ into the country?
While we’ve been fed our doses of JM’s intriguing tale at a slow pace lately ( hint, hint ) 😉 , the continuing stream of information on Belize never fails to amaze me. (☉_☉) Thanks Greg!
February 6, 2013 at 4:05 pm
Love the way Barrow threw him under the bus….
If the US Government reacted the same way every time a politician was accused of behaving badly, the ‘halls’ would be empty, lol.
What is the real reason for this knee jerk reaction I wonder? No charges yet, and an apology without admission of guilt don’t equal suspension without pay. There has to be more to it……
February 6, 2013 at 3:05 pm
The US has an economic citizenship program as well. I live freely, speak my mind as I please, work hard and make a nice living in Belize and never encountered the problem mcafee had or created. I have disagreed vehemently with our PM Dean Barrow face to face over serious issues and never had the GSU knock on my door or the PM close his door to me. Belize is not a third world country, as mcafee would lead you to believe, re: his statement about people starving and loosing hair. Yes, we have more poor people than we should, but are a developing nation with huge debt incurred by past govt with nothing to show for it. But a good country none the less, with many bright, involved and committed Belizeans who carry on and do the right thing
February 6, 2013 at 12:44 pm
@Katie, thank you for your post. It is very interesting to me to hear different points of views, especially from someone living in Belize.
——-
I can only imagine that there is a lack of funding for crime labs, education, health ect as in most third world countries. And I am aware that you are a new democracy and as such you have growing pains as do many in your situation. I live in France, not America, however we have similar advantages and judicial systems and sometimes we find it difficult to believe that others may live differently and under other rules than we do.
————————–
I hope that you keep posting as it is refreshing to see all kinds of comments on this blog. It keeps things more interesting and balanced for me.
——————————————
I see that you are in the business of tourism in Belize. It appears to be a gorgeous country with alot to offer and one that someday, I would like to visit.
I am not shy about visiting third world countries or countries on the edge. Europeans travel a great deal around the globe no matter what the political situation. However, before going to Belize, I will have to think twice. Maybe because I have read too much. Actually, come to think of it, If I had read about the countries I have visited (before I went) as much as I have read about Belize , perhaps I would have stayed home and that would have been a shame.
