    The drug cartel, "Los Zetas" posting a recruiting poster for military or former military. Not a good time to be in mexico.

    was there a few years ago.. i think you are more at risk getting hit in the head by a beer bottle from drunk college kids than get in trouble with the corrupt cops or the drug cartel

    Man, this board is filled with a bunch of women! Grow a pair and go have fun. Just use common sense like you would in any foreign country.

    Cancun is fine

    Interior Mexico and especially the border areas (Juarez, N Laredo, Matamoros) are not.

    I drove from Zacatecas to Aguascalientes about a year and a half ago and didn't feel very safe. I passed through one security checkpoint and fortunately it was legit Mexican troops. But when I stopped and went into a store, I made my wife stay in the car (tinted windows) to avoid being seen. Muchos malos around there.
