Usually the drug gangs would leave the tourists alone as it would be bad for business and get the authorities on them.

Bump for later. Been to Puerto Vallarta twice; last time was 10 years ago.
Another place on the planet that I’ll never see again...

Surprising. I think “Bachelor in Paradise” films there. That would be a heck of a coup, grabbing that bunch. The pressure to pay out would be enormous due to the visibility of the captives. I wonder if they’ll find a new venue for next year.

Every `upscale restaurant’ in Mexico is now like a lobster tank for kidnappers. Just pick the gringos you want.

It used to be you could safely go anywhere if you were an american.
Everyone (even the criminals) were afraid to mess with the US.
Now, it’s like “Eh... why not “

It could also be wealthy Mexicans who were kidnapped. Pretty common in that hellhole.
