Nightingale Posted October 8 Posted October 8 This is so scary. My family is from there and I've gone to visit several times and never knew it was that dangerous

Relampago. Posted October 9 Posted October 9 Mexico is such a beautiful country with beautiful people and culture… it deserves so much better than this. 2
Marianah Adkins Posted October 9 Posted October 9 its quite insane how cartels have treated Latin America like its own playground. Its heartbreaking. RIP
BrattyBottom Posted October 9 Posted October 9 I love to visit Mexico but I'm glad I never moved there with my first boyfriend. The amount of violence, specifically Femicide is alarming. I don't think I would have ever truly felt safe.
Bewitched Posted October 10 Posted October 10 This is why I'm so confused as to why Americans are moving to Mexico like it's one thing to visit the country on vacation which I hope to do soon but living there? I wouldn't. and yes I'm aware the US isn't any better.

Merida, for example, is considered one of the safest cities in North America, just behind Quebec in Canada. There are many cities and towns in Mexico where you can live a very paceful and quiet life. Stop generalizing. Edited October 10 by ttsmu 2

They go to safer places, reserved for the privileged and wealthy people, so they can stay in their bubble, oblivious to what actually happens in their neighborhood next to them 1

It's definitely not about that. She was already the head of Mexico City's government. She did absolutely nothing. We know it's gonna be the same story with her as the president, and more given the shady connections her party has Edited October 10 by BrokenMachine

After that, those cases still existed, but they weren't that public anymore, happened in remote spaces, or the media just outright censored them Edited October 10 by BrokenMachine
UnusualBoy Posted October 10 Posted October 10 Yeah, it's awful and let me not get into the situation in Sinaloa. That aside, some of the comments in this thread...

If violent stuff happens at the other side of the city, you won't notice it, and since, (affortunately) it doesn't happen every single day at the same spot, the probability of getting directly affected by something like that is kinda low
