I know many say its safe to travel in Mexico but if your ever kidnapped by the cartels or anyone down there or beaten than robbed than you will wish you have never gone, for me I will keep my travels north of the Mexico border.

Besides I travel with a gun and in Mexico that is automatic jail time expect for the hundreds of thousands of drug cartels, they get a free pass..

Wow, having lived here for more than 30 years, this is all news to me.

Really? All news to you? Maybe living there you missed things like our Marine Sgt. Tahmooressi being held in Mexico for months because he made a wrong turn at the border in San Diego, accidentally ending up in Mexico and happened to have three personal guns (all registered in the US) in his vehicle and was arrested.

Also, take it you are not an American citizen? Try living in a place like Arizona or Texas where they get all the illegal alien traffic committing thousands of crimes (including murder) after crossing into the US. Ask some of us how we feel having this go on? How about the drug cartels that are running in Mexico and trafficking illegal drugs into the US while the government of Mexico looks the other way? The government in Mexico is corrupt and I personally believe you take a huge risk crossing the border into Mexico. Personally, I will stay right here in the US.
