I was to Mexico about 10 years ago.It may very well be the media distorting the violence but from what i've read over the last few years i'd be hard pressed to go back at this point.What a violent brutal way to die:(

Mexico had the USA F with an election 6 years ago and help get this guy in office. He crackdown on the drug gangs like GWB wanted and now we got a mini Iraq down there.

The media is not over doing it, if anything they are under playing it.

How would you like to be in any Mexican jail ? Got drunk and get in a fight at the wrong place or person it could happen.

I go to jail in Canada, I go in the USA, I go in England for sure, ha ha-(i heard they can smoke pot in jail over there)

But fucken Mexico, no way.

I never going back there and lets see what happens in this election. The old ruling party better get back in or that vote was F with also

viva la mexico. It is fine there for the most part as I've travelled there on numerous occasions to Playa Del Carmen, Cancun, Acapulco, Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta. It has been very safe as I have been there even during the "dangerous periods" and a lot of it is blown out of proportion. No matter where you go things can happen...even here in Toronto. A person was shot so does that mean that we should not go onto Finch Avenue?
Most likely you would be OK--just like if you try running across the 401 freeway at 1 pm but why fucken chance it ?

And why help support that government--the police are part of the government, its crooked and evil

The USA should do more to help Mexico and less halfway across the world. Too bad Mexico wasn't losed with oil

The one incident in Cancun of the guy falling out of his balcony at Gran Caribe Real -involved drugs and alcohol -and a fight with his girlfriend. I wouldn't call it an accident -I call it ineveitable.
Hey thats having a good time, ha ha

Maybe she caught him with another gal and they fought about it--yelling is fighting now of days/

So you drink a few beers and smoke a little weed and fool around with a new gal, that means you asked for it ??? That happens all the time in Toronto

I just don't understand why Peter MacKay had to get married in Mexico? His wedding party must have spent a pretty dime in Mexico. Is Canada or even the U.S. not good enough for him? Why not get married in his ancestral home in Ireland?

I think most of the oil in the Gulf belongs to Mexico.
Yeah too bad not smack in the center, Mexico City is in the mountains or the USA would have its troops down there

Mexico has a lot of issues, i think Canadians going their on vacation should be cautious, not flashy and stupid.

As some of you might have read previously, I used to live in Mexico for work. Just under three years.

After many of the comments I've read in this thread, I don't even want to approach the discussion upon the xenophobia of some people.

It reads more so about that particular theme than it does about any sort of safety.

God knows that anyone who doesn't carry themselves off properly in any country (Canada included) will always be putting themselves at risk.

This most recent report about a UBC post graduate student. The ex husband went down to Mexico to look for her and started digging on the beach where he dug up a leg of another person,who just happened to be buried there. After more searching he found his ex wife buried along with her boyfriend, with their throats cut. The Mexican police search had failed to find them.
His impression was that if it was that easy to dig up body parts on a beach down there, there must be a lot more. duh.

Relax, safe enough for Peter MacKay and his wife but definitely avoid Bahamas (even Peter wouldn't go to Bahamas). Just kidding!
Relax, Mackay has a search and rescue helicopter docked in the garden area of the compound where they are staying, and in the event a quick retreat is required, there is a Canadian aircraft carrier in the Pacific Ocean for them.

I have no idea what any woman sees in him? He must have a monster wang or maybe he gives good nose! Everytime he lies, it grows. I can picture the new Mrs asking if she tastes good and he says his-watch out for that nose sweetheart.

Personally, I've been to Mexico twice before 2005 and have no desire to return as it's a big world and there are other places to see.

Alright we plan vacations and believe we've taken all the precautions to travel safely and here are some scenarios to ponder:

1. You forgot your passport in the bedroom, so you go grab it and as you are coming down the stairs, you nose dive breaking your neck and die instantly.
2. You are enroute to the airport and a flying tire from a transport truck comes through the window and everyone in the vehicle dies.
3. Okay, you have arrived safe and sound at the airport but you are ushered away because your passport is not pristine. You become so frustrated that you bang your head against the wall, but you didn't know it was the steel beam you hit, you fall and die.
4. Okay, you board the plane as everything has been settled and you are on your way, you think! 2 hours into your flight, the aircraft suddenly loses all power and it crashes with no survivors!

What's my point? Live for the moment but don't be reckless and remember the only gaurantee in life is death. Use warnings to your advantage, nobody is going to tell you what to do, just be careful out there.

@Don Draper, there will always be xenophobics and they will become agoraphobic, so in-time they become mysophobic. When this happens that individual has given up and will rely on internet banking, utility payments, on-line shopping, grocery-gateway and so on. Numerous businesses, professionals and industries are hoping it happens soon, so they can PROFIT.

As for Howie 'mysophobic' Mandell, he fist pounds instead of handshakes-well ain't he stupid because he's transmitted germs, if he coughs or sneezes more germs. Who will shave his back and balls? Not me! If he's truly mysophobic then he's abstinent-he can't have sex because there's physical contact; he can't even spank-the-monkey because his pecker isn't clean there could be Howie goo on him.

Howie has a disease, it's called "heisfullofshititis!"

I think that xenophobia is the wrong word. While I didn't spend as much time in mexico as you have, I've been there more than most. I knew what could go on there if you weren't really careful. Yes, there's many places including canada where you are going to get into trouble if you act like an idiot but mexico took it to a new level. The govt. and police corruption there is no secret. I was fortunate, nothing bad ever happened to me but I know people that were stopped for no reason during the middle of the day and extorted by the police. Throw in the dramatic increase of murders in recent years and really, why would anyone go to mexico just for fun in the sun when they can go somewhere much safer where the local authorities are far more friendly to the tourists?
I feel sorry for the average mexican who is trying to pay their bills and live an honest lifestyle, but until the mexican govt cleans up the corruption then I won't spend one dollar of my money there. When they do that, I'll return.

For what it is worth, my family doctor recommended CUBA with the warning to play safe with the local women. Get TWINRIX shots, wear protection, don't promise to marry them, etc.
 

good to go

I dont see Mexico that appealing, prices have not come down for one. There are many other locations with hot weather similar prices and safe locations. I will pass till they clean things up.

When I priced Cancun vs Daytona it wasn't close. Then I went on hotwire and seen prices of $200 or more a night for a hotel on or near the beach....however I then seen about a hotel room that was a meth lab on the bech and found rates of $60 a night and late next month when spring break is happening and temps hotter at $80 a night.


I could fly from Det to Orlando for $210 non stop and rent a car--over just drive down there in 2 days.

I go to Daytona beach before Cancun and it be cheaper if I stayed at the Bermuda House Hotel

There might be a meth lab going on but nobody is falling out of their hotel windows

You will see the huge difference in the food, quality of resorts and service in Mexico compared to places like Cuba & Dominican Republic.
Cuba has tons of local semi-pro girls willing to fuck you silly...what does Mexico have?
