State Department warns of travel to Mexico
The U.S. State Department has issued a new travel warning for Mexico, superseding last April’s warning.
The department warned U.S. citizens traveling to Mexico of cartel violence stemming from drug trafficking, specifically noting violent struggles among the criminal organizations for control of trafficking routes.
The warning references a rising number of carjackings, kidnappings and gun battles throughout Mexico.

The warning, broken down by region, advises citizens to defer any nonessential travel to Tamaulipas. U.S. government employees are not allowed to travel for personal reasons on highways outside the cities of Matamoros, Reynosa and Nuevo Laredo due to the risk of armed robberies and carjackings.

Mexico is a beautiful country and I hope that one day it will return to its rightful place of a wonderful tourism spot.
The only way that is going to happen is to legalize drugs and take that money away from the cartels.
