Rodolfo Lopez-Negrete, who runs Mexicos tourism board, said "travel to pockets like violent Ciduad Juarez is obviously unsafe." He said "travelers should also use common sense when crossing into border cities like Reynosa or Nuevo Laredo."
Sounds like he took that line directly out of the letter he sent us when we canceled our reservations for a reunion.

I think a weapon would be of more value than “common sense” with those people. If you want to play the lottery, just buy a million dollars of life insurance and head off to Mexico!

"But Lopez-Negrete said major resort destinations in the country remain safe...."

“I think a weapon would be of more value than common sense with those people.”
I agree, that is the only way I would go to Mexico. Are you anywhere near the fires?

We in Texas laugh routinely at anything the Mexican government suggests. They are so full of poopy the should be the number one manure producing country in the world.
I don’t know any Texans planning to head to Mexico for vacations.
Mexico is a cess pool that has no right whatsoever to lecture Texas on a damn thing.

Hey Calderon, how about you "tone down" charges of racism when we just want to enforce our immigration laws like YOU do?"
Bingo.
