    Swell. Mexico is positioned between the Congo and Iran as a “taking your life in your hands” destination.

    Thanks for this information!! I’ll share it with my Democrat neighbor who just allowed his 17 year old daughter to go to Mexico for Spring Break. He wants to be “liked” more than loved and rspected.

    More farcial crappola from Mexico. They need to keep their own citizens at home instead of encouraging them to invade our country.
