Yes there are lots of murders in Mexico, but they involve narcos against narcos now and then an inocent is caught in the cross fire, yes there was a Canadian shot friday in a shopping mal, when 10 to 12 individuals jump out of 3 vhehicles and target the Canadian and the guy with him only and no one else, the connection to the narcos is there.
No tourist is in danger in Mexico, the narcos do not want the DEA and the FBI looking into the demise of inocent tourists by the cartels, that is to much interference in the narco buisness, if you think you need an armourd vehicle to visit Mexico then you might awell use the vehicle to visit some of the cities in the United States as well, the narco gangs are there to, those numbers that you refer to are based on the narcos mainly, remember that deaths and thefts are just numbers, they do not separate inocent victims and perps.
Yes the DEA and the FBI do cooperate with the Mexican authorities to bring the narcos to justice in Mexico and 92,00% of murders in Mexico are narco related only and tourist in Mexico are safe, unless they are looking for drugs and that is dangeous in Canada, the United States or Mexico, so buy your armored vehicle and enjoy your fear.
