Mexico has become the type of country where the guards check for weapons at the border and if you don’t have one they give you one.

Wow, that’s spooky. I’m definitely staying out of Mexico. Sounds like its getting as dangerous as Los Angeles.

I live ~140 miles from the Mexican border. Haven’t been there in years (and I used to LOVE going down there for a day trip!) and don’t plan on going.
Those who do travel down there are looking for more trouble than they know how to handle!!
Sad!! Most Mexicans are good people caught in a bad situation and their corrupt government (like OUR corrupt government) won’t do anything about the problems they have down there!

It’s a shame to paint ‘all of Mexico’ as a serious problem. There are plenty of areas that are perfectly safe (safer than most US cities).

“U.S. citizen visitors are encouraged to stay in the well-known tourist areas.”
Those aren’t so safe any longer.
Their advice will get some Americans killed. The mass murders and beheadings aren’t just TJ and border states any more. They should issue warnings about the Pac. NW, where the drug cartels are now fighting each other over control of growing territory in our national parks and forests!

Diario de Yucatan – Merida, Yucatan – 08/20/09
A decapitated body with signs of torture was found in a bag near Cancun. A man was shot as he attempted to flee from his assailants on a heavily traveled street in downtown Cancun.
El Sur (Acapulco, Guerrero) 8/17/09
Article headings from the state and local news section: Beheaded victim found with narcomessage on highway from Zihuatanejo to Lazaro Cardenas ***** Taco shop owner in Ixtapa shot dead ***** Farmer and three sons murdered in Zapotitlan ***** Two “young men” found tied up and executed in Tres Palos (a town some 15 mi. outside Acapulco). [But “Milenio” (a Mexico City paper) today recapped events in the same area and tallied two beheadings and a total of nine homicides. The two at Tres Palos had been tortured and each had been executed with a coup de grace.]

There is *NOTHING* that Mexico has that I want and there's *NOTHING* located in Mexico that I wish to see.
That's always been the case for me...and always will be.

Mexico ranked 16th most violent country in the world (10 in Latin America and we worry about the middle east!)
Critica (Hermosillo, Sonora) 8/18/09
Mexico’s “CIDAC” (Center of Research for Development, an “NGO”) has published a 16 page Spanish language document which states that Chihuahua, Baja California and the state of Mexico head the list with the most homicides, vehicle thefts and executions in Mexico; it adds that, on a world scale, Mexico ranks 16th with the highest index of violence and crime among 115 nations. The study sets out that the nation’s gravest problems are “the non-existence of an integral vision that might emphasize prevention; the lack of professionalism of police and of agents charged with carrying out justice; a penal system without transparency re discretion and corruption as well as an extremely high impunity rate which reaches 98.3% (the probability that a person who breaks the law may have to face a judge is 1.7%)”
The entire report [ we have not translated it; it’s in the Spanish language ] from CIDAC is attached. Page 7 of the report lists the 16 most violent countries of the world. Ten of these are in Latin America or the Caribbean. The report was also found on the front page at www.cidac.org.
