Romance was taken in Acapulco in Mexico in 1998, this man is a police officer but the only recognisable police insignia is his hat other than that he is only wearing jeans and boots, in Mexico they have national service so he is probably 18 yrs old conscriptbut he looks so proud to be doing his job, he is probably happy that he has a job and to have this mexican with a shotgun dressed so casually in front of this store proclaiming romance just seemed so weird at 7 a.m.
