I grew up and still live about 140 miles from Mexico. During my childhood and and young adulthood, Mexico was like a playground, shopping center, place to get drunk (and other things) and just fun in general. The place began to change in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. It’s been 35 years since I set foot over there, and probably another 2,000 or more before I do so again.

Anyone that goes to that pest hole does so at their own peril. (And they WILL be at great peril I might add!)

We hunted deer for over 40 years in south Texas. Went across the border every weekend, ate, shopped, wandered around, had fun but no more, never again.

We visited downtown (tourist trap) Tijuana couple of decades ago. Went to a really great restaurant (with no running water in the toilet though ~ must pay to have knob turned eh!). Couple of months later the guy running for Mexican Vice President was assassinated by a federale right in front of that restaurant.

Now that was the real Mexico!
