“I would rather travel the length of mexico by bicycle before taking a jet to n.korea.”

Good luck! You’ll need it. Wear body armor. Trump clearly missed an opportunity to name the #1 $hit hole country in the world, Mexico! And the only one that shares a border with the United States.

“Singapore was the cleanest and safest country I ever visited in that region. Of course, they are a small city nation and are ruthless with criminals. Think back lashes for simple theft. Drugs? - you die in prison.”

DADA means Death! You don’t want to be anywhere near drugs in Singapore, because they will put you to death just for possession.

Hubby and I did a lot of traveling when we were younger. Went on vacation twice a year. There are places we didn’t make it to that I would still like to see but I’m pretty much happy to stick to my local stomping grounds (home and boat), plus Hawaii, and fly to Arkansas once or twice a year to see family. Keeps me pretty busy.

Back in the "90"s Ciudad Acuna moved "Boystown" out of town onto a hill a couple of miles East. On the backside of the hill the sewer system left a dark brown wet stain all the way down to the Rio Grande.

Mexico is a shithole full of shithills.

“Mexico is a shithole full of shithills.”

Not long ago, I had to go to Tijuana on business for the day. It’s hard to realize that across a shit-flled river from San Diego, CA sits Tijuana, with dead dogs in it’s gutters and sewage leaks on it’s streets. Mexico is a failed state just as much as is Haiti!

White folks in Mexico do just fine.

“White folks in Mexico do just fine.”

Yes, they do, until they get shot! But be my guest! Whether or not I’m safe there, I would not spend an effing dime in a place that $hits on my country day after day. I consider it unpatriotic to “patronize” Mexico, just like I don’t watch the NFL because it’s also anti-American.

I meant the European-White Mexicans, like Vincente Fox, not the tourists.

I’d like to see Kenya, but I don’t need Kenya seeing me.

Thanks for the summary!

The order seems to be upside down with few exceptions.

For instance, we ARE going to Israel, but NOT Mexico.

The only reason why my country (Israel) is on the list is the US State Department lumps in Arab-occupied territories for this calculation.

Mind you, not for any other definition of “Israel,” but this one is bad, so they do it here.

You are describing the “ruling class” in Mexico. If they didn’t speak, you’d not know them from your neighbors. Vicente Fox, Pena “Little Penis” NIeto, are not really Mexicans, but rather Spaniards who just showed up to screw the “local women,” take over and run the place.

For the purposes of this calculation, the Arab-controlled territories are included by the US State Dept. Mind you, they don’t do this for any other calculation.

It’s just another example of how data can be manipulated to fulfill their agenda.

It’s no different than Apartheid-era South Africa.

After this latest Trudeau has taken power, Canada should be on the list. As an Alaskan, I have traveled through Canada numerous times going to and from the “lower 48.” In my last trip I experienced outright hostility at times. It is not the Canada we use to know.

The northern areas: Yukon, and northern BC, Alberta, and Saskatchewan, not so. It was closer to the US border I experienced it.

“It’s no different than Apartheid-era South Africa.”

But at least when “whites” ruled SA, it wasn’t rife with violence, until the ANC started killing people.

I know that if we’re to survive as a nation we must control our borders but a Mexican civil war will be one of the consequences.
