Back in the late 70's we always thought it was a fun weekend trip to go across the border and party. I can't imagine doing that now. Not unless one has a death wish.

Re: Vacationing in gun free Mexico
A lot of people don't know but guns are legal in mehico, but only one place to buy them and of course not for foreigners.
One of my biggest mistakes in life...Is Believing people will show me the same love I've shown them.

Utah couple shot execution style by police or people looking like they were police or just by armed men, when they stopped at a checkpoint or didnt stop at a checkpoint (since if they didn't stop at the checkpoint they would still be driving away) They also tried to kill their 12 year old son, but he survived from his gunshot to the head, which is why we know something about this. After they were shot the police or armed men took their car and drove away.
Apparently bad things also happen after midnight in Mexico as well.

State Dept. has red zoned Acapulco, recommending that no U.S. citizen travels to there or the entire state of Guerrero on the Pacific coast of Mexico.

Re: Vacationing in gun free Mexico
My son in law and daughter just got back from a cruise to Coz. I wasn’t that worried, he’s Hispanic and bilingually fluent. But, I was concerned. I told them to stick to the touristy places.

Re: Vacationing in gun free Mexico
Good advice! We are taking a cruise this Saturday out of Galveston with 2 stops in Mexico. Cozumel & Progresso. I'm not concerned about that at all.Stick_Shift wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 4:07 pm My son in law and daughter just got back from a cruise to Coz.

Father of K Pop star Samuel found dead in his Cabo home. Beaten to death, but stab marks in his back as well. K Pop looks like a South Korean boy band.

Bar attack kills 23.
Won't make the M S news as a molotov cocktail was used.
Maybe Mexico should ban gasoline.

So you avoid being beheaded and instead you go to an amusement park.

9 members of a Morman family visiting Mexico for a wedding are murdered including the children and babies.
All Americans.
Mitt your on the wrong side. You either need to resign or join the president. If I lived in Utah I would be working to get your Democrat Recalled.
I would make a terrible President, but it time to send the army in and take over the country. This is close to home, these are Americans.
