Extreme and gruesome violence has turned a city once beloved by holidaymakers from around the world into a war zone. Acapulco, on Mexico's Pacific Coast, has been gripped by such bloody chaos in recent years that it has been dubbed one of the most dangerous cities in the world. Shocking new photographs captured in little more than two months on the streets show just have horrifying life there has become, with death seemingly able to strike anywhere in the city.

You can still come to Alberta.
Pierre’s son is going to stack Alberta full of Muslims.
Not on my watch. Here in northern Alberta, we don’t tolerate much. Think of a Texan, but more attitude.
Banff is awesome.
Are you crazy? Last time I was there, bodies were flying, people were fist-fighting and beating one another with sticks, and there was blood everywhere. My friend told me it was something called "hockey".
Ha, “Goin Loco in Acapulco” I totally forgot about that 80s Four Tops song, now I gotta listen to it again :)

Has a sublime gift...

LOL saw the Tops live couple weeks ago.
Only one original remaining, but they were quite good.
Temptations OTOH were pretty awful. Their one remaining original had a bad voice night.
Well said.
I have been there on Cruise ships in the 70s and really enjoyed Acapulco.
A person I know liked Acapulco so well he walked up the hill to where the Mexicans lived and struck a deal with them for a place to stay in Jan- Feb. from a month to six weeks.
He did that for many years and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Now Americans avoid going because of the fear of being kidnapped for ransom, or other bad things happening to them. -Tom
That’s actually quite tame. You need to experience Albertan lacrosse heh.
I have seen a few Americans come through this summer. I usually talk to them, but one couple from Indiana really ticked me off. They said Hillary was the only hope, and she loves her country. I asked them to hurry up and take their communist selves out of my province.
Ya, it’s nice. There are many other things too as well.
I prefer touring the US and Canada. I’m done going elsewhere.
We did the Sleigh Ride on Lake Louise, it was coooold, but it’s beautiful.
You could get on a plane in Peoria Illinois back in the 80s at around 6am change planes in Chicago and then fly direct to Alcapulco be on the beach by 1pm. People loved Americans. I’d stay at the the Camino Real, but they this 4star place up on the hill that had pink golf carts for the people.
A real paradise.
Right. You folks have guns.....until Pierre’s son comes to collect them.
