Not the immigration stuff, but everything else. Hispanics are good folks. Conservatives need this voting block. Family folks who work hard. I see benefits both ways on deportation so I'm undecided. We definitely need to shore up the dam now though. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3000152 United States 03/10/2017 01:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've been to Cuba, Cambodia, Turkey, etc...but there's this stigma that traveling in Mexico is dangerous. Quoting: JIK I plan on driving during the day and staying in places like Monterey, Veracruz, Tampico, Mexico City, Lago de Chapala, Pacific coast. I'll be driving a fairly nice Toyota Tundra. Should I be concerned? Why is Mexico off limits? Any Mexicans have any tips? I speak a little Spanish and love Hispanic culture. Should I not venture south of the border? I know a Colombian who will not even drive through Mexico. They will steal your car and possessions as soon as you go to sleep in your hotel. Even if you catch them in the act, their cousin cop will suddenly show up and they will tell him that it is their car and that they are just taking it back. This is exactly what happened to the Colombian who speaks fluent Spanish and is pure hispanic. That is if you dont get kidnapped or simply shot for what is in your wallet. It you are white, you are a target and your only hope is to drive a beat up piece or crap that they dont want and look dirt poor. It is actually a stupid idea to go there outside of a resort. |

Quoting: BANE 72012590 I am a 6´2 WHITE American that immigrated to Mexico 11 years ago. Never have I felt more safer in my life. It is MUCH safer than being around groids in Atlanta. But there are laws and legitimate law enforcement agents in Atlanta. |

Much more to this story that we do not know. Where in Mexico? 6'2 compared to the 5'2 aztecs? Rich in a gated and guarded community? etc, etc, etc. Simply go on google street view and pick ANY city or town and you will immediately notice something about Mexico. EVERY house, no matter how poor looking, has a wall or iron fence around their property and burglar bars on every window and door. Ask yourself why dirt poor people would spend so much money on such hard security and you have your answer about Mexico. Mexicans do not even trust their neighbors not to steal or invade. |
