Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Damn little reasonable question about murder stats in the US.There are also questions about reporting accuracies, both in Mexico and the U.S.

You seem to specialize in red herrings. From whence the need to sell Mexico?So if someone lives their life worrying about 1 in ~5MM possibilities, then they really should stay home. And I'd wager they already do.

I understand that a cheap travel blogger, or someone who can have a much more luxe lifestyle in retirement in Mexico than he could afford in the US has a dog in the fight, so to speak.
But it is highly unlikely that the US government travel warnings are biased against the states south of our border. After all, those governments are always leaning on ours to avoid upsetting the apple cart.
It is also highly unlikely that a prospective American traveler has no opportunities other than Mexico, unless he is interested in pre-Columbian art and architecture. So if someone looks at the issues and decides, "I think I'll take the family to Hawaii instead", is it reasonable to depict this person as hiding under a chair? Not unless one has a need to bolster a personally important position.

My only point was that the U.S. travel warnings are insanely conservative.
Somewhat similar to the warnings about "Containing Hot Liquids" currently printed on takeout coffee cups . . If the travel warnings weren't so conservative it's a given that someone, or countless someones, would scream "But you said...(or didn't say)" if something/anything happened to them.
As long as we are full thread drift argumentative mode.........Somewhat similar to the warnings about "Containing Hot Liquids" currently printed on takeout coffee cups, (following that ridiculous (and successful) lawsuit where a woman spilled some on herself and then sued McDonalds, or some other outfit)......
After receiving the order, the grandson pulled his car forward and stopped momentarily so that Liebeck could add cream and sugar to her coffee. (Critics of civil justice, who have pounced on this case, often charge that Liebeck was driving the car or that the vehicle was in motion when she spilled the coffee; neither is true.) Liebeck placed the cup between her knees and attempted to remove the plastic lid from the cup. As she removed the lid, the entire contents of the cup spilled into her lap.
The sweatpants Liebeck was wearing absorbed the coffee and held it next to her skin. A vascular surgeon determined that Liebeck suffered full thickness burns (or third-degree burns) over 6 percent of her body, including her inner thighs, perineum, buttocks, and genital and groin areas. She was hospitalized for eight days, during which time she underwent skin grafting. Liebeck, who also underwent debridement treatments, sought to settle her claim for $20,000, but McDonalds refused.
But I'll go with your testimony, since you claim to have no personal or financial reason for it, blog notwithstanding.

It was not a ridiculous case. The Actual Facts about the Mcdonalds' Coffee Case
We can discuss it, but it would be meaningless without some sort of actual, verifiable numbers. Do you have any?

You totally fooled me about not selling Mexico. So sorry, I just couldn't imagine what else you were doing.
There has to be a reason why our Southwest is host to many Mexicans, from poor laborers to billionaires. And some of them say that are leaving, /have left Mexico because of danger and fears for their personal safety and that of their families.

Oh, here's an excerpt from the warning.
Carjacking and highway robbery are serious problems in many parts of the border region, and U.S. citizens have been murdered in such incidents. Most victims who complied with carjackers' demands have reported that they were not physically harmed.
but your accusations seem rather silly...
if i could get a suggestion for the 'flying' and the 'cities' from people who 'know', that would be nice.
However, i still want to go but now i want to fly in with my wife and stay a least one week. No cruise ship ports or big Americanized cities is my goal.
