Mexico is Not Safe to Visit

I have no personal vendetta against Mexico.  I took a 10 day vacation there in 1967.  The trip included a few days in Mexico City, a night in Taxco, and another few days in Acapulco.  It was a lot of fun.  I have been to Tijuana many times.  There was never an issue about my safety or others with me.  Things have changed in that country.  The unending reports about attacks on Mexican citizens and visitors to Mexico have convinced me that travel there is not safe.  It is not safe for the citizens of Mexico either. A Mennonite community in Chihuahua that dates to the 1920s is the latest in a series of continuing attack victims conducted by drug cartels.  The U.S. government has issued warnings.  They should be heeded.
