By the time my own government finally comes around to issue a travel warning for half of Mexico I know it has really gotten a lot worse and has been very dangerous for a long time. When people I talk to at work who have relatives in Mexico will not travel to see them I think the situation is way beyond a travel warning... "Travel warning? You don't need no stinkin travel warning!..."

From 2006 to 2011, there were 47,554 deaths resulting from Mexican drug cartels. Higher estimates place it around 60,420.

I have been to Mexico many times, but will never go again. While most of the people there ARE very nice, there are also growing numbers that view Americans as targets of opportunity. It isn’t worth the risk to go.

If Detroit were a country it would be called `Mexico.’

Mexico's top domestic security official says a U.S. State Department travel warning on almost half of Mexico's states is "ridiculous" and "out of proportion."

Interior Department Alejandro Poire says "It is the whole country of Mexico!"
