U.S. tells citizens not to travel to five Mexican states

Many are missing the point...

You bet your sweet butt this ain't Georgetown, D.C. and wandering around at 0300 isn't as safe. Going to a brothel in Nevada is not as risky as going to the Conquistador in suburbs of Acapulco. Wandering around a beach at night is risky.

Buying illegal drugs is a lot more risky down here.

And so is driving at night. Likewise getting down and Boogeying at the disco in a city ain't Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.

But I don't do any of those things. North or South of the Rio Bravo.

Likewise driving at night.*

My friends do not have halcones or bodyguards.

But Nit Pickers, will surely find these points and trample them into the ground as ammunition in their arguments about how Mexico ranks right up there with Yemen.

*All the things that you drive around that can total your car during the day are impossible to see at night. Green Angels and cops go home. Taxi drivers can navigate by braille.

Perhaps JAPAN is truly safe. Sorta hard to blend-in there...

Indianapolis isn't very far behind either! Now they are having problems with houses getting shot up with kids (little kids) inside while they are sleeping! What's this world coming to?

Phoenix AZ sees uptick in homicides 2nd straight year.....LINK

Chicago, IL homicides has decreased BUT 650 people were still killed....

Point is CRIME happens everywhere.

One should be 'informed' and not place themselves in a bad situation BUT don't put your head in the sand and think it just happens 'some where else'

I hope they included Nevada, LOL.

Ok, I won't go here either. A bit tough when we live here!
